Update:Star Citizen Alpha 3.2.1

Alpha Patch 3.2.1 has been released, and is now available to test! Patch should now show: LIVE-834470.

It is strongly recommended that players delete their USER folder for the Public client after patching, particularly if you start encountering any odd character graphical issues or crash on loading. The USER folder can be found (in default installations) at C:\Program Files\Roberts Space Industries\StarCitizen\LIVE.

Major Known Issues

Universe

Missions

 * Reduced the mission spawn timers to increase the frequency and availability of missions.

FPS

 * Tweaked stamina consumption and regeneration.

Ships and Vehicles
