For existing players, be sure to click the "Fly for Free" button to get the free ships from this free fly.

For new players, use the guide system to get set up with a player that can help you get started. You'll both earn rewards for doing so.

I think they definitely handled this upgrade the right way. Many players were concerned about losing all of their previous progress with the previous system, but making it so referrals count towards both rewards is awesome:

What happens to my current referral progress?

If you've referred at least one player who has purchased a game package before July 2, you'll retain access to what we're now calling the Legacy Ladder. You'll be able to view it via your Account Settings, and going forward, new referrals will count toward both the Legacy and new ladders—meaning you can earn rewards on both tracks at the same time.

~9 min video by Space Tomato covering some of the recent changes coming to Star Citizen.

• Security at stations
• Flight model
• Rewards that can't be bought (only earned) by playing the upcoming event.
• Removing RNG from Wikelo.

Jojo does a deep dive on the Wikelo rewards (clicking through the new missions and checking out the new items required).

NPC security should be back (higher crimestat attracts more of a security force), but Jojo wasn't able to trigger it with a crimestat in this video.

MrKraken created some one page guides/maps for the Stormbreaker event. They have also been provided in multiple languages: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/community-hub/post/storm-breaker-one-page-guide-XTU7HaiJkZyFs

And a video guide for anyone who prefers that: https://youtu.be/OOhGdMh_DyA

Uncle Porkchop shows off a hangar location at the mining bases that you can glitch into and then open up the hangar bay doors.

A 4 minute video from CIG about this new ship and some of the features:

• Ship hull opens up and exposes cargo grid to the exterior.
• External tractor beam (S2 remote).
• Wing "feathers" fold in on landing to make cargo easier to access from more angles.

I've been interested in trying this game out ever since they posted some early gameplay footage over a year ago. Looks kind of like a mix between Star Citizen (in and out of ship gameplay), Helldivers (4 player co-op/PvE missions), and Sea of Thieves.
