Zur Erinnerung: Bis zum 2. September z\u00e4hlt jede Stimme, also verpasse nicht die Chance, das Lieblingsschiff der Community f\u00fcr 2025 zu w\u00e4hlen. Wenn du die Schiffe selbst ausprobieren m\u00f6chtest, beginnt morgen unser j\u00e4hrliches Ship Showdown Free Fly Event, bei dem du in die Elite der acht Schiffe einsteigen und sie aus erster Hand erleben kannst.\n\nAu\u00dferdem haben wir eine besondere Folge von Star Citizen Live ausgestrahlt, in der Vehicle Director John Crewe und Vehicle Art Director Ben Curtis eine ausf\u00fchrliche Schiffs-Showdown-Frage gestellt haben. Sie beantworteten Fragen aus der Community zum neu ver\u00f6ffentlichten Kr\u00fcger L-21 Wolf, zum Wettbewerb selbst und zu einer Vielzahl von schiffsbezogenen Themen. Wenn du die Live-\u00dcbertragung verpasst hast, kannst du sie dir auf jeden Fall ansehen.\n\nDas Wochenende war auch voll von Community-Events, die wieder einmal gezeigt haben, wie viel Energie und Kreativit\u00e4t ihr alle in Star Citizen einbringt.\n\nATMO Esports beendete das Gravity Rush-Finale, bei dem die Piloten in einem adrenalingeladenen Spektakel aus Geschicklichkeit und Geschwindigkeit \u00fcber das Gel\u00e4nde rasten, das live f\u00fcr alle \u00fcbertragen wurde.\n\nOperation: ASD Defection war ein weiteres herausragendes Ereignis, das von Galidrum organisiert wurde und mehr als 230 Spieler\/innen aus 14 Organisationen zu einem gro\u00dfen, koordinierten Event zusammenbrachte. Mit zwei erfolgreichen Missionen, drei gleichzeitig stattfindenden gro\u00dfen Weltraumschlachten, an denen \u00fcber 150 Piloten beteiligt waren, und einem epischen Showdown zum Schluss war es ein unvergessliches, von der Gemeinschaft getragenes Erlebnis. Ein gro\u00dfes Lob an alle, die mitgemacht haben!\n\nDen Abschluss bildete die Industrie- und Handelsausstellung 2955, die \u00fcber 600 Besucher\/innen zu einer riesigen Ausstellung im Spiel einlud. Mit drei Messehallen, mehr als 50 ausgestellten Schiffen, F\u00fchrungen und Aktivit\u00e4ten f\u00fchlte es sich wirklich wie eine lebendige Convention an. Hut ab vor Knebel und der Starhead Federation, die eine so ehrgeizige und beeindruckende Veranstaltung auf die Beine gestellt haben.\n\nSchlie\u00dflich sind Mitglieder unseres Teams zur Gamescom nach K\u00f6ln gereist, wo wir das Vergn\u00fcgen hatten, viele von euch sowohl auf der Messe als auch bei zwei Bar Citizen-Treffen zu treffen. Es war der perfekte Abschluss einer Woche, die einmal mehr die unglaubliche Leidenschaft dieser Community gezeigt hat.\n\nSchauen wir mal, was diese Woche so los ist:\nDiesen Dienstag erreicht Ship Showdown die Elite Acht, wo der Wettbewerb immer h\u00e4rter wird und jede Stimme uns der Kr\u00f6nung des ultimativen Champions n\u00e4her bringt. Die Abstimmung ist noch offen, also unterst\u00fctzt eure Favoriten und helft mit, zu entscheiden, welche Schiffe ins Final Four und dar\u00fcber hinaus kommen.\n\nGleichzeitig startet der j\u00e4hrliche Ship Showdown Free Fly, der Star Citizen f\u00fcr alle \u00f6ffnet und Piloten die Chance gibt, die acht besten Schiffe der Community kostenlos zu fliegen. Das ist eine gro\u00dfartige Gelegenheit, die einzelnen Kandidaten zu testen, ihre St\u00e4rken abzuw\u00e4gen und deine Erfahrungen in die endg\u00fcltigen Schlachten einflie\u00dfen zu lassen.\n\nAm Mittwoch wird das neueste Roadmap-Update ver\u00f6ffentlicht, das einen detaillierten Blick auf die neuesten Erweiterungen der Alpha 4.3.1 bietet.\n\nAm Freitag findest du in deinem Posteingang den w\u00f6chentlichen RSI-Newsletter. Darin fassen wir die Highlights der Woche zusammen, stellen herausragende Community-Inhalte vor und geben einen kleinen Ausblick auf die n\u00e4chsten Entwicklungen. Wenn du an der PAX West in Seattle teilnimmst, komm um 20 Uhr zu unserem n\u00e4chsten Bar Citizen-Stopp im Stoup Brewing - Capitol Hill!\n\nUnd zum Schluss noch eine aufregende Nachricht f\u00fcr Rennfahrer: Die XGR Divisionen sind zur\u00fcck! Diesen Sonntag geht es mit dem Mirai Razor in die ber\u00fcchtigte Schlangengrube. Es ist eine der anspruchsvollsten Strecken da drau\u00dfen, also ist jetzt die perfekte Zeit, um zu \u00fcben. Anmeldungen sind m\u00f6glich. Vergiss nicht, dein SCR Time Trial innerhalb von 24 Stunden vor dem Rennen einzureichen, um deinen Platz in der Startaufstellung zu sichern.\n\na.thl'\u0113'kol, wir sehen uns bald,\n\nDer w\u00f6chentliche Zeitplan f\u00fcr Community-Inhalte\n\n\nMONTAG, 25.
