Die Caterpillar, die lange Zeit als hart umk\u00e4mpfte Alternative zur allgegenw\u00e4rtigen Hull-Serie gefeiert wurde, ist ein Frachter, der nicht an Waffen oder kundenspezifischen L\u00f6sungen spart.\n\nDer 2946 Caterpillar ist modular aufgebaut und verf\u00fcgt sowohl \u00fcber einen vollst\u00e4ndig anpassbaren Satz von Frachtsegmenten als auch \u00fcber das charakteristische, au\u00dfermittig abnehmbare Befehlsmodul der Linie. Es ist diese Vielseitigkeit, die es zu kleineren Schlepperausstattungen bewundert hat. Ob Sie einen verteidigungsf\u00e4higen Transport oder ein Raumschiff suchen, das St\u00fcck f\u00fcr St\u00fcck aufger\u00fcstet werden kann, anstatt es zu ersetzen, der Caterpillar ist Ihre beste Wahl.\n\n\nEine umstrittene Wahl?\nSeit dem ber\u00fcchtigten Kesslering Heist von 2903 hat sich der Caterpillar einen weiteren, gef\u00e4hrlicheren Ruf erworben: das Fluchtfahrzeug. Obwohl die Vertreter von Drake Interplanetary die Verbindung der Schiffe mit kriminellen Elementen immer wieder kritisiert haben, schl\u00e4gt die neueste TSAS Crime Stats eine andere Geschichte vor. In einer ihrer vielen Umfragen, die aus Statistiken aus der gesamten UEE stammen, steht die Caterpillar an der Spitze der \"Schiffe, die bei einem Verbrechen eingesetzt werden\" und nimmt an allem teil, von der illegalen Bergung \u00fcber den Schmuggel bis hin zu \u00dcberf\u00e4llen. Es hat die zweifelhafte Auszeichnung als bestplatziertes Frachtschiff auf der Liste und schl\u00e4gt Freelancer-, Hull- oder Starfarer-Transporte.\n\nDie Gr\u00f6\u00dfe der Caterpillar erm\u00f6glicht es ihr, gestohlene Waren leicht im Weltraum zu transportieren, und ihre Modularit\u00e4t erm\u00f6glicht es ihr, ungew\u00f6hnliche Waffen und ultraleichte Unterst\u00fctzungsschiffe zu transportieren, was sie zu einem idealen \"Schlachtzugsf\u00fchrer\" macht, aber ihre bemerkenswerteste Eigenschaft ist, wie unauff\u00e4llig sie ist. Dank ihrer erschwinglichen Preisklasse sind Caterpillars ein ideales Schiff f\u00fcr alle, vom unabh\u00e4ngigen Schlepper bis zum Teil einer Flotte, so dass Caterpillars in jedem menschlichen Hafen der Galaxie zu finden sind. Die Tatsache, dass sie so verbreitet sind, macht es Kriminellen leicht, sich vor den Augen der \u00d6ffentlichkeit zu verstecken.\n\n\nFlugf\u00e4hig in 2.6\nMit dem neuesten PU-Update wird die Drake Caterpillar neben dem MISC Starfarer und Aegis' Starfarer Gemini in der Flotte der gro\u00dfen Multi-Crew-Schiffe von Star Citizen eingesetzt. Die Caterpillar, die dazu bestimmt ist, das f\u00fchrende Schiff in \u00dcberfallgruppen zu bilden, ist ein Flaggschiff, auf das jeder Gesetzlose oder legitime Gesch\u00e4ftsmann stolz sein kann.\n\nDer Caterpillar wird noch eine Woche nach der Ver\u00f6ffentlichung von Star Citizen Alpha 2.6 im Handel bleiben. Zuk\u00fcnftige Patches werden zus\u00e4tzliche Funktionen hinzuf\u00fcgen, einschlie\u00dflich der Abtrennfunktion f\u00fcr das Befehlsmodul. Neue Upgrades f\u00fcr die Segmente des Caterpillar und andere Halterungen werden in zuk\u00fcnftigen Patches verf\u00fcgbar sein.\n\n\nBesuchen Sie die Caterpillar\n\n\nHaftungsausschluss\nDenken Sie daran: Wir bieten dieses Pfandboot an, um die Entwicklung von Star Citizen zu unterst\u00fctzen. Die durch einen solchen Verkauf generierte Finanzierung erm\u00f6glicht es uns, tiefere, nicht kampforientierte Merkmale in die Welt von Star Citizen einzubeziehen. Alle Schiffe werden im finalen Universum f\u00fcr In-Game-Credits zur Verf\u00fcgung stehen, und sie sind nicht verpflichtet, das Spiel zu starten.\n\nDer Caterpillar wird mit dem Start von Star Citizen Alpha 2.6 flugbereit sein. Weitere Module, Varianten und\/oder Upgrades werden in Zukunft verf\u00fcgbar sein.","zh_CN":"Introducing the Caterpillar\nFirst introduced in 2871, Drake Interplanetary\u2019s Caterpillar has long proven to be a reliable, cost-effective multi-role vessel, capable of being outfitted for everything from mercantile operations to combat support.
