Star Citizen | Roadmap Roundup – August 03, 2022

Happy Wednesday, everyone!

Every two weeks, we accompany the Roadmap update with a brief explanatory note to give you insight into the decision-making that led to any changes. This is part of an effort to make our communications more transparent, more specific, and more insightful for all of you who help to make Star Citizen and Squadron 42 possible.

With that said, let’s go ahead and dive into this week’s Roadmap Roundup!

Notable Changes for August 3, 2022
 

Release View


The following cards have been added to Release View, targeting release with 3.18:
 

Daymar Crash Site

A derelict settlement on Daymar using parts of the StarRunner & 600i, as well as some habs adapted to the biome, to create a point of interest with some type of activity (puzzle, traversal, hostile AI, missions, etc.) as well as rewards for completion.


New Rivers in Stanton

Setting up biome-specific object rulesets around bodies of water and distributing those by placing additional rivers and lakes on microTech and Hurston.


Sand Cave Archetype

Establishing the visual language, creation pipeline and quality standard for a new sand cave archetype. With this release, cave networks using this archetype will be placed throughout the Stanton system.


Arena Commander: Classic Race Mode Overhaul

A complete overhaul of all systems and maps in Arena Commander’s Classic Race Mode. Improvements include a complete refactor of the Checkpoint entity & race manager system, improvements to scoring, a complete rework of all three New Horizon Speedway maps, as well as a new map, The Snake Pit.


Sandbox Prison Activities

Expansion of prison gameplay with a new suite of missions and sandbox activities to give inmates more opportunities to earn merits or to aid in their escape from prison.


Security Post Kareah Reactivation

Security Post Kareah will be taking a more central role in Stanton’s security. Crusader Security have moved in a full-time staff and have begun storing confiscated contraband aboard. The station will be off limits to all civilians, unless given prior authorization.


New Missions – Orison

Bounty, Assassinate, Clear All and other missions to take place on the platforms created for Siege of Orison which, in future, will be distributed across the planet of Crusader to create further content.


New Interdiction Scenarios

Adding new variations and difficulty levels of interdiction scenarios that players will come across while quantum traveling.


Environmental Space Missions

Implementation of new missions and scenarios that the player will encounter as they wander around an area of space. The missions that appear will be based on the Probability Volumes that the player is currently in.


Salvage – Hull Stripping

Previously, this initial release of the Hull Stripping feature was limited to FPS and the Drake Vulture. This is being updated to also include Hull Stripping aboard the Aegis Reclaimer using its remote salvage turrets, therefore this cards description has been updated to reflect this.

That’s all for this week!
