Happy Wednesday, everyone!
Every two weeks, we accompany the Roadmap update with a brief explanatory note to give you insight into the decision-making that led to any changes. This is part of an effort to make our communications more transparent, more specific, and more insightful for all of you who help to make Star Citizen and Squadron 42 possible.
With that said, let’s go ahead and dive into this week’s Roadmap Roundup!

Notable Changes for December 11, 2024
Release View
The following deliverables have completed final review for Alpha 4.0, therefore we are changing their status to Committed:
Space Stations - Contested Zones
Contested Zones are a location feature coming to Pyro's space stations, introducing FPS gameplay with various layouts tailored for this purpose. The zones will feature a progression system requiring tokens to unlock different zones, giving access to the loot inside. Collecting all of the tokens will allow a player to open the final door and claim the grand prize.
Asteroid Bases
Implementing new asteroid bases scattered across space in asteroid clusters, gas clouds, and other areas of Pyro. From exploration-type gameplay to mission-based locations, these bases include both constrained interiors for potential FPS conflicts as well as space combat while reaching or fleeing from the location.
Mission System Refactor
Reworking the underlying Mission System to become compatible with Server Meshing, allowing for easier creation and maintenance of mission content.
Mirai Guardian
Building, balancing, and implementing Mirai's heavy fighter, the Guardian, into the game.
That's all for this week! Join the discussion on Spectrum.
