Got questions about Star Citizen’s P-52 Merlin spaceship? Cloud Imperium has answers from technical designer Matt Sherman, who collected a bunch of queries from the game’s forums and has published them in a Q&A format on the crowdfunded space sim’s website.
The Merlin is basically a snubfighter, meaning that it lacks quantum or jump capabilities and is in effect tethered to a mothership or a base instead of being able to travel across an entire system. If you have a bigger long-range ship, though, you may be able to take a Merlin with you, as Sherman says that Star Citizen’s Constellation, 890J, Carrack, Idris, and Javelin ships are currently slated to carry snubfighters.
