Summary
Episode 147 dives into one of the biggest directional shifts we’ve seen in Star Citizen, with Invictus Launch Week officially replaced by DefenseCon 2956 under a bold Drake-led identity. We break down what this means for the future of in-game events, the implications of the Odin Founders Club introducing selective access to a capital ship, and the continued evolution of Alpha 4.8 as Tactical Strike Groups, XenoThreat, and vehicle loadout recovery enter deeper testing.
