Steltek Ships (possible spoiler)

Post by Privateer Ferrius »

Is it just me, or are the Steltek Scout and Carrier mysteriously absent from the Privateer remake?

The Steltek Scout is the same spacecraft as the "fighter" that you meet in Nitr system. The Carrier is the derelict thing that you land on in Delta Prime system.

The Steltek Fighter and Scout were two different things in the original. The fighter was this clunky looking thing that had a steltek gun. The scout was a cool black and green thing with three steltek guns.

Incidently, the remake seems to have given the scout the payload of the fighter and called it a fighter.

Do'h, you're right. The fighter is the inactive piece of machinery you find on the carrier in the Delta Prime mission--it's the thing that you stripped the Steltek Gun from. The Scout is the ship that you encounter in Nitr.

What I was refering to is the fact that the scout is refered to as 'steltek_fighter' in the game

There was a derelect fighter in the original Privateer. It'd be neat if you could salvage it in the Remake.
