Happy Monday, everyone!
What a week! The past few days have been all about the 2951 Intergalactic Aerospace Expo, and the Tobin Convention Center saw thousands of visitors marvel at the many ships and vehicles up close every single day. We’ve seen great reveals like the Anvil Spartan, the Argo RAFT, and of course the brand-new exploration ship from Musashi Industrial and Starflight Concern, the MISC Odyssey. We’ve laughed at the fantastic Whitley’s Guide coverage and maybe also shared a tear with Jax McCleary and his trusted partner Jimmy.
However, the show is far from over as the community’s champions just conquered the floor. The Crusader Mercury Star Runner, Crusader C2 Hercules Starlifter, Origin 600i, and the ultimate winner of this year’s Ship Showdown, the Argo MPUV-1C (also known as Argo Cargo) are on display, all dressed for the occasion in their brand-new Best in Show paints. Check out the Best in Show post on Spectrum to find out how to secure these exclusive paints and even more goodies for yourself!
Also, don’t forget to check out more than 120 ships during our ongoing Free Fly, and take your chances at winning your very own Crusader C2 Hercules Starlifter by participating in our IAE 2951 Screenshot Contest Finale.
Now, let’s see what’s going on this week:
This Tuesday, the Narrative team will publish a Clean Shot broadcast, in which Craig Burton gives his thoughts on this year’s expo, including his support for the Argo Cargo’s surprising Best in Show victory.
Wednesday will be the last day of IAE 2951, and thus your last chance to get your hands on this year’s special IAE offers.We’ll also publish our bi-weekly Roadmap Update and associated Roadmap Roundup. As with previous years, we won’t have a Monthly Report for November. However, we’ll include all of this month’s details in a double November/December report early next year.
Thursday brings a new episode of Inside Star Citizen that takes a look at the recently unveiled MISC Odyssey and finishes with a Sprint Report.
On Friday, you’ll see an update to the Subscriber Vault and the RSI Newsletter will wait for you in your inbox. Star Citizen Live will come back to us on Twitch at 8am Pacific / 4pm UTC. This week, members from the Vehicle Content and Feature teams will be joining us for a special post-IAE, all-ships Q&A!
With this, have a great week, and we’ll see you at the expo hall!
