Hello everyone,
Last weekend, we opened 3.4 on the PTU to all backers, which keeps us on track for delivery of 2018’s last content update. As the year comes to an end, it’s time to look back at what was achieved, from new shows like Calling all Devs, to improved FPS compliments of OCS, the implementation of mining, an already legendary CitizenCon and of course, Hurston. The year was chock full of new features, breakthroughs, and wonders, but now we look forward, to what 2019 will bring.
What was your favorite Star Citizen moment of 2018 and what are you looking forward to most in 2019? Let us know in the comments.
And with that, let’s see what’s going on this week:
Every week on Calling All Devs , designers, engineers, and other developers from our five offices around the world answer backer questions submitted on Spectrum and voted for by YOU. This week, we talk about GrimHEX hangars, the difference between scanners and radar, sharing missions with friends, and more.
Tuesday is lore day! The Lore Team will publish Phantom Bounty Part 4, the thrilling conclusion to this harrowing tale. Check out Part 3 here.
Thursday will welcome another episode of Around the Verse where we’ll take a look at the latest Star Citizen news. Also on Thursday, the Squadron 42 Newsletter will provide you with the latest info on our cinematic single-player adventure. Enlist today, if you haven’t already!
Friday we’ll update the Persistent Universe Roadmap and send out our weekly RSI newsletter. As a side-note, we’re currently planning to update the PU Roadmap with additional columns in the new year.
This will be the last “This Week in Star Citizen” post for 2018, so we want to take the opportunity to thank you all for your continued support and interest in the project.
May the Season bring only happiness and joy to you and your crew, and keep an eye out on Spectrum for some fun in-game activities later this week!
