In the latest update on Star Citizen’s ships and vehicles, it was announced that Alpha 3.23 has been released to wave 1 backers, meaning it’s out of the NDA and content creators can start streaming and making videos about it. The update comes with various bug fixes and new features like FPS changes and mission rewards balancing based on effort and distance traveled. Players are encouraged to provide feedback as the patch undergoes tuning and adjustments.
The RSI Zeus ship update revealed that the gray box phase is completed, with progress being made on habitation, central hallways, cargo hold, and landing gear. A variant of the Zeus is expected to potentially release for Invictus or in an upcoming patch, likely as the cargo variant. The Anvil Legionnaire, a boarding ship, is in the white box phase and waiting for gameplay validation. It features a hacking system via the co-pilot seat to bypass security of the ship being boarded.
Legacy ship updates include work on the dash, cockpit, and exterior housing, possibly referring to ships like the RSI Aurora. The Resource Network development has begun, with 10 ships nearing completion to utilize the engineering gameplay systems. The system includes physical repairable components, relay nodes as fuses, and screens to monitor systems like life support and gravity.
A giveaway is ongoing courtesy of Game Glass, with prizes including lifetime passes and an Origin 300i ship. Viewers can enter by commenting on videos posted within a specific timeframe. The channel is approaching 65,000 subscribers, and viewers are invited to join the Twitch stream for gameplay of Alpha 3.23.
