Star Citizen Alpha 3.23 is finally in the first wave of public testing. While there is still plenty more to learn about it, we’ve had several hours to test out some of the first features and have quite a bit to say! I’ve invited Beyond The Verse host, Sulyce, on to the show to talk first impressions, when the update may go to live servers, and what could be coming after that!
