Hello everyone,
Last week we showed a new PU Trailer at the PC Gaming show at E3, celebrated First Contact Day, and revealed the Drake Vulture. If you’re looking for more information on the Vulture, head over to spectrum, ask your questions, and upvote your favorites for our upcoming Q&A.
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 on by YOU. On today’s episode, we address questions regarding renting ships in-game and how insurance timers will work. You can watch the full episode here.
Every third Tuesday, we post a News Update feature, providing new fictional insight on the Star Citizen universe, and this week is no different. Look out for this, and check out previously released lore posts here.
Thursday will see an all-new episode of Around the Verse, with a Star Citizen PU update, a look at player grouping systems, and an all new episode of Loremaker’s Guide to the Galaxy, this time focusing on the Caliban system.
Lastly, on Friday, Content Manager Jared Huckaby will sit down with our developers to recap Around the Verse and discuss improvements to the player group experience in more detail. Keep an eye out in the General section of Spectrum for the question gathering post and then tune in on Twitch.tv/StarCitizen at 12pm PDT/7pm UTC for Reverse the Verse LIVE.
We’ll see you in the ‘Verse.
