LOL, I feel your sentiment there. I enjoy sitting back and watching Spectrum chat for this reason. Hilarious to watch the emotions flying without bounds.

4.8 has entered Evocati testing, and Tactical Strike Groups are starting to take shape.

What stands out isn’t just the feature, it’s the timing. CIG is pushing org recruitment alongside it.

Feels like a clear signal: coordination is about to matter more than ever. #StarCitizen #Squadron42

This Week in Star Citizen

Nailed it.

100 new missions across 13 archetypes
Entry level missions like Courier and Delivery
4.8 Evocati Testing
Instancing Testing coming soon

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

Instancing in Star Citizen

Tactical Strike Groups are coming in 4.8 with Invictus Launch Week…

But didn’t CIG say last CitizenCon that Siege of Orison would be our first test of instancing?

Are we to expect SoO between now and mid-May?

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

4.7.2 is expected this week, and it quietly marks the first real test of Star Citizen’s blueprint economy.

New Nyx missions will introduce unique blueprints not currently in-game, with more added over time.

This isn’t just content, it’s system evolution. #StarCitizen #Squadron42

Captains of Industry 2956

Free fly ends April 20th. Last chance for new players to get their hands on 6 coveted industrial ships ranging from salvaging, to mining, and to cargo hauling.

🚀 MISC Prospector
🎨 Keystone paint
📍 Ruin Station, Pyro
🎮 Star Citizen 4.7.1

Episode 145

This week hits the foundation of Star Citizen.

Transport system rewrite, crafting evolution, and Alpha 4.8 testing are all converging.

Feels like a real stress test moment for the future of the game. #StarCitizen #Squadron42

Mark my words. Lol. Path of Exile 2 was $500 for a t-shirt, sweater, art book, etc. I can absolutely see SQ42 doing something similar.

Squadron 42

Who else is planning to spend $500+ on the collector's edition of Squadron 42, regardless?

(pst, CIG, please make a Squadron 42 collector's edition!)

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

CIG quietly dropped an Anvil Aerospace update, and the timing before Invictus has people connecting dots.

Nothing confirmed, but speculation is building fast.

Also: Star Citizen Live today + transport testing now open to all backers.

Evocati is testing a full rewrite of Star Citizen’s transit system right now.

This is the kind of backend work that enables instancing and scale; not flashy, but critical.

Also, the HighSec bundle just dropped with mixed early reactions.

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

Colored contacts? LASIK? Tell us more!

April Monthly Bundle

"HighSec Bundle" - $25
- Love the paint for the Wolf
- Heavy armor gear set

Did someone say Mass Effect?

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

This week in Star Citizen feels quiet, but it’s actually a transition point.

4.7 is stabilizing, Inventory & Crafting get a closer look Thursday, and 4.8 continues tracking toward Invictus.

April’s Monthly Bundle drops later today.

Looking for Questions

CIG just posted on Spectrum they are looking for questions for April 16's Q&A: Inventory & Crafting Update. Link in replies.

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

Canceled test ≠ no signal.

Item recovery systems, instancing support, and QV extraction sites are all aligning as Star Citizen moves toward ILW.

We’re in the ramp-up phase now.

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

It is a look into 1.0 when we have NPC flight crews to help the solo player!

Captains of Industry

What is your current industrial loop setup?

Idris with Vulture, Ox, and Prospector on landing pads, UTV for bunker running, and Geo for hand mining.

Taking advantage of solo-Idris'ing while it lasts. PDCs FTW! #StarCitizen

One step closer to suit lockers??? 😎

Item Recovery: Vehicle Loadout

Evocati to receive tech-preview build this weekend. I will happily test this! Stay tuned for feedback! #StarCitizen #Squadron42

EP 144

Free Fly and Captains of Industry collide to stress test Star Citizen’s systems.

This week is less about what’s new, and more about what holds.

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

Play Star Citizen for Free: www.robertsspaceindustries.com/enlist?refer...

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

Today, Star Citizen goes free-to-play, and cargo and industry get tested.

Hull B expands hauling, while Free Fly and Captains of Industry concentrate players into those loops.

Now we see if it all holds under real load. #StarCitizen #Squadron42

Roadmap Update

The following are tentative for 4.8:

Tactical Strike Groups
QV Extraction Stations
Space Combat Mission - Defend Location
KSAR Plasma Grenade

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

Did You Know?

In the MISC Hull B,

1️⃣ the mirrors work in the bathroom
2️⃣ wall hangar in your habitation
3️⃣ wall hangar in the messhall
4️⃣ the items in the bathroom can be carried

#StarCitizen #Squadron42

But with the UTV you can have that detachable 1 SCU to take in with you. Not a bad idea at all!
