EDIT: Also as the cutlass is a short range fighter, I'm still toying with the concept of loading up my avenger with fuel tanks and hiring a cheap NPC to fly it alongside as a fuel tanker... probably more expensive than it's worth though.

I'm an owner of a lowly Aurora MR, bought it late December of last year. I don't plan on upgrading to a better ship, at-least with RL money. I think I would prefer to scrape up my money together and work my way towards something better. Heck, I wouldn't even mind being a crew member on some of the larger ships.
Well, how many ships can a player fly at once... 1, how many of us have multiple ships.... Lots of us... How many of those ships need crew members... Quite a few of them. If we really wanted we could probably melt secondary ships and easily afford one. I'd rather wait until the game releases before we start going down that path though.SeraphiM0352 wrote:honestly if everyone from GC pooled their funds we probably could have gotten and Idris or two. but he have plenty of Connies that will need gunners and pilots for their snub nose
right now it's pre-alpha, with a hangar module released that you can walk around and see some of the ships that they've made, interact with a few pieces, but not much else. At PAX East this weekend they are going to reveal the next pre-alpha module, the dog fighting module (DFM), which will actually be a playable thing. This is expected to release within a week or so of PAX East, but the team already delayed it once so they could get the network back end working, so if they don't feel it's good enough they may delay it again. Basically they are releasing pieces of the game in pre-alpha modules that build on each other and will be part of the full game (DFM will be an arena mode in full game), adding parts as they go.Ch4rlesCastr wrote:I've been reading this thread for a little bit because I was very interested when I heard about it and seeing that you guys are actively keeping up with it and what not I find very cool and interesting. I had a question though, the game is still in alpha/beta? I think even a pre-alpha at this point... For you that sound like you're already participating in the game, or have ships, what did you guys buy? Those 30$, 40$, +++ packs that they offer? Are you playing the game right now? Or is periodic, weekend like, betas and alphas?
Thanks guys!
If you check the OP you can find a link to a spreadsheet of our current fleet. There are a lot of us who are very interested in this game. The developers have a very different approach to game making in the sense that it is very transparent.Ch4rlesCastr wrote:I've been reading this thread for a little bit because I was very interested when I heard about it and seeing that you guys are actively keeping up with it and what not I find very cool and interesting.

You need to start handing out some ranks and roles!matsif wrote: if you want to join in on the pre-game fun, we've set up an org here. Not really fleshed out yet but always willing to accept more people!
dont you bring that evil in here! RSI wont sell out to FB look at how much money they made on their own for a game that isnt even playable yet. Plus DFM will debut at PAX this weekendzorplex wrote:It's been a long time since this whole thing started. I was really hoping they'd have the dog fighting demo out by now. But seeing as how Star Citizen is developing for the Occulus Rift, I can't wait to see the Facebook integration once RSI gets acquired! Who knows, maybe Star Citizen will even go free to play!
I think it's tomorrow actually.SeraphiM0352 wrote:dont you bring that evil in here! RSI wont sell out to FB look at how much money they made on their own for a game that isnt even playable yet.
