Drake Interplanetary is bringing its infamous DefenseCon event to Area18 on ArcCorp this year, offering citizens a gritty alternative to the polished Invictus Launch Week. From May 17-29, 2954, Drake will be showcasing its latest ships and technology at Riker Memorial Spaceport.

Getting to DefenseCon

The event is being held at Riker Memorial Spaceport in Area18. Visitors can follow these steps to attend:

  1. Set your spawn point to Area18 if logging in for the first time. Otherwise, quantum travel to Area18 and land at Riker Memorial Spaceport.

  2. If spawning at Area18, take a shuttle from your hab to Riker Memorial Spaceport. Those flying in can proceed directly from their hangar.

  3. Once at the spaceport, follow the red Drake DefenseCon signs to reach the event lobby.

What to Expect

DefenseCon offers a complete "Drake-over" of Riker Memorial Spaceport for two action-packed days. Attendees can get up close with Drake's infamous lineup of ships built for the everyday citizen. From versatile multi-crew vessels to nimble fighters, Drake's full range will be on display.

The event promises a more relaxed and authentic atmosphere compared to the formal Invictus Launch Week. Drake encourages visitors to rub elbows with the hardworking folks who make the UEE run. Local food, drinks and entertainment will be available at nearby ArcCorp Plaza.

Free Fly Event

In conjunction with DefenseCon, Star Citizen is running a Free Fly event from May 17-29. New players can create an RSI account, download the game client, and explore the 'verse in an Aegis Avenger Titan at no cost.

Discounted Starter Packs

For a limited time until May 31, discounted Star Citizen starter packs are available. These include the game download, a starter ship, bonus ship paint, and special 10-year in-game insurance.

Exclusive Merchandise

Drake-themed merchandise is available for purchase during the event. Fans can pick up shirts, hats and other collectibles to show their Drake pride.

DefenseCon 2954 offers citizens a chance to experience Drake's no-frills approach to ship design and get a taste of the company's outlaw reputation. Whether you're a loyal Drake pilot or just curious about the infamous manufacturer, this is your opportunity to see what Drake has to offer in a uniquely gritty atmosphere.

A 30K Adventure at Drake DefenseCon

Jax couldn't believe his luck. He'd just joined the Star Citizen Referral Code Club and was now standing in the bustling halls of Drake DefenseCon on ArcCorp. The air was thick with the scent of engine oil and cheap beer.

"Welcome to the real party!" a gruff voice called out. Jax turned to see a burly man in a Drake jumpsuit. "You look new. What code did you use to get here?"

Before Jax could answer, alarms blared. "30K incoming!" someone shouted. The crowd cheered, raising their drinks.

"Looks like we're in for some fun," the Drake employee grinned. "This is what the Star Citizen Referral Code Club is all about – embracing the chaos!"

As the server began to wobble, Jax found himself transported to the cockpit of a Drake Cutlass. "Better buckle up, kid," a voice crackled over the comms. "We're going for a ride!"

The ship lurched forward, weaving through the glitching landscape of ArcCorp. Buildings phased in and out of existence as they flew.

"This is amazing!" Jax exclaimed, his heart racing.

"Welcome to the RSI Referral Code Club," his mysterious pilot laughed. "Where bugs become features and 30Ks are just part of the adventure!"

As they soared through the chaotic sky, Jax realized he'd found his people. The Referral Code Club wasn't just about codes – it was about finding joy in the unexpected.

The 30K hit, and Jax woke up back at DefenseCon, surrounded by cheering players. He grinned, ready for whatever the 'verse would throw at him next.
