Greetings Citizens,

I hope you all had a great weekend. Let’s drive right into this week.

Earlier today, we released a new episode of Citizens of the Stars, this time highlighting even more of the amazing content from our community, and a round of Quantum Questions with QA Tester Jub Bauer (spoiler: he is not a fan of Firefly! WHAT?!)

On Tuesday, the Lore Team expands on the rich history and lore of Star Citizen. If you’re looking for full immersion in our universe, checking out these posts should definitely be on your to-do list!

Wednesday is a bad time to be a bug, as Mark “Bugsmasher” Abent has come prepared! Get an inside look at the new Item 2.0 code as Mark Abent smashes a bug that’s keeping weapons from attaching to turetts.

On Thursday, International F5 Day returns to YouTube… I mean… Around the Verse returns with an update from our LA Studio… Make sure to tune in to get a detailed look at what we have been up to in the last month!

Friday is a real treat! Ben Lesnick will be taking us on a trip down memory lane with Wing Commander III LIVE on Happy Hour Museum. Being the second Chris Roberts game that I ever played, I am especially excited for this one!

See you in the ‘Verse!

I know everyone's dying for an update on the leaderboard numbers. I haven't done a detailed analysis, but over the past 11 days, the average concurrent player count in Star Marine was 26.8 (split across the two game modes), while in Arena Commander the equivalent number was 36.0. The racing module managed to garner a score of 3.7.

For the period since the last report, the average concurrent user counts for SM, AC, and racing were 23.33, 32.75, and 3.21 respectively.

I'm pretty sure the engine change hasn't caused any delays. It's just that the game is undevelopeable, at least from where they're at now. You just can't plot a path from where they're at right now and the ~dreams~ version of Star Citizen

I'll let Richard Dawkins explain it back in 1991;

I see a few things not included on StarCitizen Tracker. I was able to recruit a few non-shills to do data entry so we're getting old promises added again slowly. I think +50 were committed yesterday.

Need a little more frontier forums reputation before I can post in the Star Citizen thread. Should get us some extra help.
