This Week in Star Citizen 17/2023

Happy Tuesday, everyone!

In the world of 3.18.2, the team has been tirelessly gathering data and rapidly implementing hotfixes (often several times a day!) to tackle the interaction delay issue. We are pleased to report that we have identified the root cause and are already working on some fixes to improve the experience. Your efforts in playing and reporting have greatly accelerated our time-to-fix, and we are truly grateful for your recent activity. Though the journey has been bumpy, we have made significant progress. However, we recognize that there is still much work to be done, and we will remain vigilant in monitoring, adjusting, and implementing further fixes as needed. Thank you!

In case you missed it over the weekend, Alpha 3.19 is now available to the Wave 1 testing group on PTU! Salvage Contracts, new encounters at Ghost Hollow, and more are available to test as we lead up to Invictus Launch Week. For more information on PTU Testing and how to jump in, check out our PTU FAQ on the Knowledge Base.

Our next stops on the Bar Citizen World Tour are upon us! Join your fellow citizens for good beverages, good times, and good….goodies to be won! We’ll be visiting Sacramento, California on May 14, as well as Belgium for the Be@Con event on May 20. For details on these as well as additional upcoming events, check out our 2023 Bar Citizen landing page.

Now, let’s see what’s going on this week:

This Tuesday, Subscribers will receive May’s Subscriber Comm-Link and newsletter.

Wednesday, we’ve got the latest Roadmap update alongside its companion Roadmap Roundup. Plus, catch up on the latest development updates in April’s Monthly Report, both for Star Citizen via Comm-Link and Squadron 42 via newsletter.

Thursday brings another episode of our weekly behind-the-scenes series Inside Star Citizen, where we explore more aspects of our continuing development than you can shake a stick at. (Warning: Don’t shake a stick at Disco Lando, he frightens easily.)

On Friday, is another all-new, all-live episode of Star Citizen Live, which is LIVE at 8am Pacific / 3pm UTC. Did we mention it’s LIVE? There’s always someone in chat that asks. You’ll also find our weekly RSI Newsletter directly delivered to your inbox.

For Light and Life!
