Happy Monday, everyone!
The final week of Ship Showdown is upon us, and we have our top four ships: the RSI Scorpius, the Anvil Carrack, the Crusader Mercury Star Runner, and the Anvil Pisces. The matches have been extremely close so far, so make sure you get your votes in to send your favorite of the bunch to the top.
In case you missed it last week, the top eight ships from this year’s Ship Showdown are now available to fly for free! Plus, if you know someone looking to jump into the ‘verse for the first time, they can do so until September 15. Check out the Free Fly hub for more details on how to get started.
Finally, CitizenCon is arriving on October 8, 2022! We’ve got a lot in store, from presentations discussing the future of Star Citizen to ways to win incredible prizes. Check out the CitizenCon hub for all the details, and be sure to save the date!
Now, let’s see what’s going on this week:
We’re down to the final four! Ship Showdown Phase 2 continues on Monday so make sure to get your votes in for your favorites. Today’s matchup is the new kid on the block up against an old favorite, the RSI Scorpius vs. the Anvil Carrack.
This Tuesday, the Narrative team brings us their latest portfolio, this time on Cousin Crow’s Custom Craft. Cousin Crow’s journey from wild child to wildly successful entrepreneur hinged on his ability to foment change in himself, others, and most importantly ships.
Wednesday, we’ve got the latest update to the Roadmap alongside an explanatory Roadmap Roundup. We’ll also be reposting last week’s Squadron 42 Monthly Report newsletter as a Comm-Link.
On Thursday, Inside Star Citizen is fully salvage-themed as we dive into the first feature coming to the persistent universe for this career: vehicle hull scraping. Plus, what’s a trade without its tools? Get an extended look at the Drake Vulture ahead of its release slated for Alpha 3.18.
Thursday also kicks off Pirate Week! Paints, contests, dynamic events and more await you land-lubbers, so keep an eye out for the Comm-Link for the full schedule and all the details. The Nine Tails pirates have been getting itchy for another round, so expect some Sieges and Lockdowns throughout the weekend.
Finally on Friday, you’ll see an update to the Subscriber Vault and the weekly RSI Newsletter delivered to your inbox. Star Citizen Live also airs on Friday, with an episode all about Persistent Entity Streaming with members of the Core Technologies Teams, starting at 8am Pacific / 3pm UTC. Make sure to get your questions in on the Spectrum thread ahead of the show!
Have a fantastic week!
