Just finished a Xeno one with Spaceport Orison (SA Group), was super fun. Hope the Xeno events are still on tomorrow, I'm having so much fun in those turrets. I must also say, as an Elite Dangerous player (been years), star citizen is more fun in one system.

Yeah Xenothreat has been fun, most times it has been working, occasionally the third phase doesn't trigger but you can just hop servers if needed. I'm not sure if they are extending it, they often do extend the events to make sure all timezones get a chance. Also give it a run in a light fighter dogfighting between the capital ships, its awesome. The performance tanks quite a bit though!

Star Citizen making dev roadmap more vague to reduce disappointment

People were getting narked when features were delayed

"It has become abundantly clear to us that despite our best efforts to communicate the fluidity of development, and how features marked as Tentative should sincerely not be relied upon, the general focus of many of our most passionate players has continued to lead them to interpret anything on the Release View as a promise," they said. "We want to acknowledge that not all of you saw it that way; many took our new focus and our words to heart and understood exactly what we tried to convey. But there still remains a very loud contingent of Roadmap watchers who see projections as promises. And their continued noise every time we shift deliverables has become a distraction both internally at CIG and within our community, as well as to prospective Star Citizen fans watching from the sidelines at our Open Development communications."

I want to say I got the Anvil Arrow for free, but it's not that I think. Some triangular-shaped fighter, when I melted my old starter, paid in and got the Freelancer Maxx package. But gonna hop in a bit later to see what's cooking, I want to really start trading, but so scared other players are gonna catch me if I spend all my loot on cargo lol.

Uhm, no, it is not seen as a promise, but an expectation. Placing empathise on an expectation is perceived as a promise because of affirmation.

As I always say, don't do roadmap, as you may risk setting an unrealistic expectation, and CIG does empathise these points in their blogs which I read, so this,

"We want to acknowledge that not all of you saw it that way; many took our new focus and our words to heart and understood exactly what we tried to convey. But there still remains a very loud contingent of Roadmap watchers who see projections as promises.

you can only blame yourself, some of those watchers may be investors.

Yeah you get a free Anvil Arrow with Freelancer purchases, found this out when my buddy upgraded his Aurora. Quite nice to have that and do bounty missions alongside cargo hauling with the freelancer. I recommend you help out at xenothreat, will make a tidy sum of in-game currency.
 
They sure took their time.

Also, actually calling your convention Citizen Con is a bit on the nose if you ask me.

CitizenCon is my actually favourite thing about the game right now. It's like a mini GDC with panels showing cool videogame tech stuff. Can just appreciate the work the developers are doing there.
 
Well at least we can all know where a big chunk of the crowdfunded budget went to.. thats a damn stellar hollywood cast for the cutscenes.
