In this video, I review the Star Citizen transport, the Crusader Industries C2 Hercules, including a tour as well as detailed ship review. I include gameplay footage of the C2 Hercules in 4K at 60FPS (or as close as I could get). The gameplay for this Star Citizen Crusader Industries C2 Hercules ship review is from patch 3.17.4.

I like when a review takes you on a detailed tour of the interior of the ship.

Beautiful video, and an excellent walk though of the Hercules. Thank you for the time and effort you put into your work, Farrister!

Brother. Your my number one for ship tours and key details. Must say this vessel is amazing as a daily work horse.

The A2 is my favorite of the bunch. I use it daily for PVP and PVE; it's a more effective gun boat than the hammerhead with the size 5's and capacitor difference.

Tips to land a c2 or a a2, toggle open ur front cargo bay as a 'extra leg'

The A2 Hercules is my favorite of the trio. It's a high end multi-role vessel.

As a largely non-combat citizen, and one who appreciates comfort as much as competence, the C2 is a ship that you'd expect would be a cornerstone of my fleet. And, for a good while, it was -- but the reason I had one was primarily for its vehicle-transportation ability, above cargo hauling. It shouldn't be a surprise, then, that I shifted my focus towards Anvil's Liberator when it became available. It also ends up being . . . well . . . despite being well laid out and QUITE fun to fly, it's just not my first choice, even when it comes to cargo hauling.

The main reason is because of its size. It can definitely carry a huge bellyful of cargo, but as you noted, the cost and risk involved with a full C2, not to mention the time invested filling it with the best cargo, means there's a lot riding on every trip, in a 'verse that can often be as unstable as it is hostile, and even cautiously only putting half my wealth into a given cargo haul, that's a lot of risk.

Second, well ... is also because of its size. As you've noted, it's a heck of a lot of ship to handle, and while I pride myself on having learned to land a C2 smoothly and effectively, making one fit where it needs to fit can be troublesome. Its footprint, if you're just hauling goods, can be smallish for its size - but as soon as you bring vehicles into the mix, you need a really big spot of flat ground to land her, and getting a C2 to fit in a hangar can occasionally be a challenge as well. My hat's off, by the way, to your video clips of very smooth, elegant landings. You've clearly had practice.

Can't wait for this style of video on the vulture. I already have it in the hanger for when 3.18 comes out, but I would still love to see what you think.

It should be noted that the visibility on the C2 cockpit is actually just the MISC Ships, like the Freelancer MAX, but flipped top/down. Meaning if you look at the two ship's cockpits from the pilot's seat, they will be identical EXCEPT for the central obscuring part of the ship, which is on the top in the MISC Series ships rather than the bottom in the C2.

Lovely ship with great capacity!
A great video!

Really the perfect ship in my opinion. Does a bit of everything, can very easily be flown solo, and provides vehicle carrying capabilities that no other current ship can match. All that while looking absolutely gorgeous.

One of my favorite flyable ships available now. Just a quick correction though, the M2 and A2 have the turret under the chin, The C2 just has the upper and lower sort of central turrets. 🙂

The C2 was part of my CCU chain to get a 600i Explorer. But I filled in the chain up to the C2 around Luminalia 2951 and didn't fill in the rest of the 600i's chain until Invictus 2952. And by then, I'd fallen in love. When the Hercules released, I had toured all three variants (IAE 2951?) and this was the first time *ever* that I didn't choose the military/militarized variant. I just love the living spaces and interior design of the Hercules. My one complaint is that the C2 could easily be a 3-person ship with the bedroom being split in two. Which is the same complaint that I have of the Mercury. The Corsair has *4* private bedrooms. The Mercury and C2 Hercules have communal bunks even though they're both massively larger than the Corsair.

It's a sod to land in cockpit view. Hope they add some kind of visual landing aid a la Elite Dangerous or X4. I don't like using external cameras because immersion!

The M2 variant is something I will get in-game. I want the option to pick up transport contracts for military orgs, whether it be cargo, personnel, or vehicles. Although the C2 has that flat screen TV.

I really enjoy your videos, i only come to you for reviews. I did go for C2 over M2 for this reason, I own a carrack, a Polaris, hammerhead, redeemer, if I need to go in to a hot zone, I will hire escorts and get out asap. I want a dedicated cargo ship.

Greetings my friend Farrister. Thank you for the great video on the Crusader C2 Hercules. This is a fantastic cargo ship, in my opinion. It has a huge capacity and everything is totally enclosed within the hull. I hate to admit that I've never flown it, but I have been in several as passengers. It being one of the only ships capable of transporting the Nova Tank and the 3 Anvil Atlas Platform vehicles, the Spartan, the Centurion, and the Ballista, I really like the ship. I wish I had the budget for it and it's other 2 variants, the M2 and the A2. I guess I'll have to rely on our Org mates that have them, to transport me. The styling is nice and aerodynamic for atmospheric operations, and heavy lift. Not to mention troop transport in the M2 variant. It gets in, delivers it's payload and gets out while still able to defend itself in the process. You did it justice. Keep up the great work on your videos. Take care, fly safe, and I'll see you in the verse.
