a few days ago was the CitizenCon. A big in-person event about SC and SQ42. They showed off some absolutely stunning tech.

Anyone interested in great spacegames/mmo-tech/game-dev should really take a look at this:

Star Citizen
Squadron 42: I Held The Line

We are excited to announce that Squadron 42 is now feature-complete!

thats the trailer for SQ42 released at the end of CitCon.

Squadron 42 is the singleplayer game set in the same galaxy as StarCitizen. It fills the same niche as Starfield, though as you can see from this showcase it will most likely blow it out of the water in terms of depth, scope and immersion. A release date is not yet known, but with it being feature complete now we expect a release somwhere in late 24/early 25, fingers crossed.

#

Also got the Andromeda to Aquila Upgrade for the Constellation and the DUR upgrade for the freelancer

thats a pretty nice list tbf. If you are willing, there are plenty of grey market sites where you can sell your stuff to other players for reasonable prices, they are kinda safe as its quite a big market. CIG is not fond of grey market sites though and wont step in to help you out if things go awry.

#

But you can also just get back into the game, its much nicer now than 2015

#

as in you can actually play for hours on end

Well if you hold one for one or two years more jumping into the verse might give you a really solid experience. Also, those ships dont lose value (a few even gained), so selling will always be an option if you want your money back 🙂

(there is also the option to 'melt' the ships on the RSI side and exchange them for other ships, some newer ones for example. I feel thats quite a great offer from the devs^^)
