Happy Wednesday, everyone!
Every two weeks, we accompany the Roadmap update with a brief explanatory note to give you insight into the decision-making that led to any changes. This is part of an effort to make our communications more transparent, more specific, and more insightful for all of you who help to make Star Citizen and Squadron 42 possible.
With that said, let’s go ahead and dive into this week’s Roadmap Roundup!

Notable Changes for July 12, 2023
Release View
The following cards have been added to Release View in the Alpha 3.20 column:
Seraphim Station
A new fully-operational station positioned in the skies above Orison. This station houses multiple shops, cargo services, refuel and repair, and more.
New Crusader Platforms
Adding three new points of interest in Crusader’s atmosphere, providing new locations for missions and loot.
The following features have passed their final review, therefore we are toggling their status to Committed.
Arena Commander: Experimental Game Modes
These limited-time game modes range from simple twists on current modes to entirely new modes. This initiative will not only allow rapid iteration of game modes to be put in players’ hands faster, but also allow all teams to gather vital analytic data for specific activities, equipment, vehicles, and in-development features.
New Missions – Salvage Contracts: Coverup
Players will be contracted to strip the gang markings and paint off a ship that was used in a crime that the gang doesn’t want to get caught for. Security forces will also be searching for the ship to confirm and prosecute whoever had committed the crime.
MISC Hull C
Encompasses all tasks, including design, art, audio, and tech, required for the implementation of the MISC Hull-C heavy cargo hauler into the PU.
Wheeled Vehicle Handling Improvements
Updates and improvements to current ground vehicle movement parameters and simulation, allowing for more robust tuning and identity between various ground vehicles.
That’s all for this week!
