Enormous Star Citizen patch 3.18, titled Lasting Legacies and pitched by director Chris Roberts as “the greatest Star Citizen update yet” for a person of the most formidable area video games on Computer system, is out now. With an overhaul to the cargo program, the introduction of salvaging, new spots and updates to existing ones, and a lot much more supplemental options such as racetracks, there is definitely a good deal to just take in – so let’s go more than every little thing in patch 3.18.
Amongst the headline characteristics in Star Citizen 3.18 is a total overhaul to the game’s ship cargo system.

A new ‘sand cave’ archetype has been extra across multiple planets and moons in Stanton, with one of a kind cave formations to be explored and an adorable creature termed the Stone Bug that life within them. Also highlighted is the introduction of ‘Persistent entity streaming’ – basically, this implies that dynamic objects will now stick all-around in perpetuity, even if they are not currently owned or held by a player, which really should make spots feel a lot more consistent.
Salvage, scraping and comfortable demise
Salvaging is now totally implemented, with solutions for hull stripping and repairs possibly by hand (with a new Greycat multi-tool attachment) or utilizing units on the likes of the Aegis Reclaimer and the new Drake Vulture ship. You can crack down components, change, and store them, and can use the ensuing content to repair ships or sell it. You can scrape the hulls of ships without having shields, and manually take away their cargo bins making use of a handheld tractor beam to claim them for yourself.
The update also introduces ‘vehicle tender demise,’ a point out that ships will slide into if a important component is weakened. These stranded crafts will be left open up to salvaging by other get-togethers using the Aegis Reclaimer or Drake Vulture. Players on board a ship that encounters gentle death will not be killed – but, with the multi-purpose show, weapons, engines, and thrusters all disabled, really significantly their only selection will be to depart the ship right until additional notice.
New locations and overhauls
Numerous new factors of desire have been introduced, although other areas are acquiring large advancements. The Daymar crash website is a “large derelict settlement” that claims lots of secrets and techniques to be identified alongside the class of numerous missions. A quantity of bounty and assassination missions have been introduced on the platforms of Orison.
Stability Publish Kareah will now be enjoying a extra central role, as the Crusader Protection pressure have moved in and are storing their confiscated contraband there. The station is off-restrictions to civilians with no proper authorisation, but you can use extra violent suggests of entry. Legal players can battle their way by way of the wholly redesigned station and – if they’re capable to get down a station boss – will have the solution to use the station’s contraband equipment to dispense a minimal offer of medication.
Which is not all, having said that, as there are above 30 new compact derelict outposts to be found out throughout Stanton. Along with the introduction of the aforementioned sand caves, dozens of rivers and lakes have been spread throughout the star procedure – these appear with their have “biome-particular item rulesets” dependent on where they are found.
New ship and time trial race tracks
There’s a new Star Citizen ship in 3.18 – the Drake Vulture is a light-weight salvage ship that, as talked about earlier mentioned, is very useful for stripping down components from stranded or ruined crafts. In the meantime, there are six new, local community-centered racing spots launched. These will be unlocked as gamers full time trial missions. There’s also a new race observe in the Orison Eyesight Center that’s precisely created for the Greycat PTV.
In other places, the update incorporates new courier delivery missions, which are dependent all over the regional shipping and delivery organizations for every person technique in just Stanton. There’s also an overhaul to the regulation process, which developer Cloud Imperium Online games claims must make factors a lot less punishing for players with reduced-level crimes on their document. There is also a raft of car pace and beat stability tweaks vital amid these, ballistic weapons will now be far better in opposition to shields but even worse compared to armour.
The final Star Citizen release day continue to is not recognised nevertheless, but there’s loads to dig into if you are one particular of the game’s quite a few Kickstarter backers.

The NHL uses a draft lottery to determine the order at the top of the first round, so the team that finishes in last place is not guaranteed the No. 1 selection. As of 2021, a team may move up a maximum of 10 spots if it wins the lottery, so only 11 teams are eligible for the draw for the No. 1 pick. Full details on the process can be found here. Sitting No. 1 on the draft board for this summer is Connor Bedard, who has been lauded as a generational talent.

Initially, Los Angeles Lakers guard D’Angelo Russell said he was “not worried” about his sprained right ankle, an injury he sustained in the first quarter of the Lakers’ first game after the All-Star break. A week later, Russell is still sidelined because of it, and he won’t return on Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves, either.
Russell, who has missed three straight games and only logged nine minutes against the Golden State Warriors last Wednesday, told ESPN’s Dave McMenamin that he’ll miss his fourth straight game on Friday. Asked if he could come back when the Lakers face the Warriors again on Sunday, Russell said, “We’ll see once we get through Friday.”
The Lakers are 30-33 and coming off a 123-117 win against an Oklahoma City Thunder team that was missing Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. LeBron James didn’t play in that game because he’s dealing with a right foot injury that will sideline him for more than three weeks. Anthony Davis didn’t play in that game, either, as a precautionary measure — it was the second game of a back-to-back, and Davis is still working his way back from a stress reaction in his right foot. With the Lakers in desperate need of scoring, Dennis Schroder scored 26 points in 37 minutes, some of them after spraining his left ankle on a drive.
With 19 games left in the regular season, Los Angeles is in 11th place in the West. Only three games, however, separate the fifth-place Golden State Warriors (32-30) and the 12th-place Portland Trail Blazers (29-33). There is enough time for all of the teams in the middle of the pack to either make the playoffs outright or fall out of the play-in entirely, which means that all of these injury problems are terribly inconvenient for the Lakers.

In theory, Los Angeles is better equipped now than it was earlier in the season to deal with James’ absence — between Russell, Jarred Vanderbilt and Malik Beasley, all of whom were acquired at the trade deadline, the team has added shooting, playmaking, defensive versatility and depth. This assumes, however, that, beyond James’ injury, the roster is relatively healthy. As long as Russell remains out of the lineup, the offense will have to be heavily tilted toward Davis and Schroder. Russell’s absence hurts the Lakers’ spacing, too.
Russell sprained his ankle when he accidentally stepped on Donte DiVincenzo’s foot before inbounding the ball. He called it “pretty unlucky,” which also describes his team at the moment. Regardless of who is in the lineup, if the Lakers are hoping to bring James back and try to make some sort of playoff run, they need to beat a bunch of teams that are also fighting for playoff/play-in position.
Friday marks the beginning of a five-game homestand, in which Los Angeles will host the Timberwolves, Warriors, Grizzlies, Raptors and Knicks. After that, the Lakers will go on the road to play the Pelicans and Rockets on a back-to-back, then return home for another five games, hosting the Mavericks, Magic, Suns, Thunder and Bulls.
