Happy Monday, everyone!
Phase 1 of Ship Showdown wraps up this week, and your submissions have been truly legendary. From stunning model builds and captivating paintings to hype videos and even inventive food creations, the feeds have been overflowing with creativity. We're now narrowing down to the top sixteen vehicles as we gear up for Phase 2. And don't forget: the Sweet Sixteen will be available to fly for FREE from August 15 to August 22.
We're thrilled to share that later this week we'll be bringing back a small wave of CitizenCon General Admission tickets. These will be very limited and will likely go fast. So, if you're out there kicking yourself for not getting a ticket sooner, this will be your chance to pick one up and join us in Manchester in October. Keep an eye on Spectrum for an announcement on the exact day and time these tickets will be restocked!
Speaking of CitizenCon, applications for the Cosplay Contest are still open! If you're planning on coming to CitizenCon in costume, be sure to check out the contest and apply for a chance to win some awesome prizes. Head over to the Spectrum Announcement for more information and get your submissions in before applications close on September 27.
Now, let's see what's going on this week:
This Tuesday, the Narrative Team will publish the Whitley's Guide on the Cutlass Red, first appearing in Jump Point magazine. Developed to counter Drake's reputation as an outlaw brand, the Cutlass Red proved its value as a medical ship almost immediately during an unexpected tragedy on Corel.
Wednesday has last week's Squadron 42 Monthly Report newsletter reposted as a Comm-Link.
Thursday's Inside Star Citizen takes a trip down to the surface of Pyro's planets and moons to explore the non-combat aspects of life in our next star system, as well as a chance to meet two factions just trying to make their ways through the 'verse, the Citizens for Prosperity and Headhunters.
Thursday also kicks off Phase 2 of Ship Showdown, complete with the Sweet Sixteen Free Fly! Make sure you check back every day to vote your favorite vehicles to victory!
Friday, Star Citizen Live is a Q&A with the Frankfurt Level Design team about Contested Zones and Asteroid Bases. You can submit your questions on Spectrum and tune in at twitch.tv/starcitizen at 8 AM Pacific / 3 PM UTC to learn more. You'll also find the weekly RSI Newsletter delivered to your inbox.
Saturday has a pair of community competitions you'll not want to miss. XGR continues the Neno Cup with Day 2 of racing across mulitple categories in this exhibition race event, starting at 4 PM UTC on the XGR Twitch Channel.
If combat is more your speed, the ATMO esports 2v2 flight PVP tournament, Fight or Flight, begins at 4 PM UTC with a new regional format. Check out the action on their Twitch channel.
May your heart be your guiding key,
