![]() ![]() No other game shares as much information on a weekly basis, and no other game I know of is as focused on listening to and working with its community to make the best game possible. ![]() To reduce Star Citizen to just be about the amount raised is to do a disservice to all this. The beautiful screen shots and videos, the streamers that push the boundaries of what the game can do even in Alpha, the detailed proposals and feedback on how to make things better and the patient bug hunting so many of you do. Speaking on behalf of the team, we are always amazed and humbled by the talent, imagination, creativity and passion that we see from the community. This December, we will also add the roadmap for Squadron 42’s completion. This year we rolled out a live roadmap for Star Citizen’s development that is linked to our internal task and scheduling system and shows the planned features and content for the next four upcoming releases of Star Citizen Alpha. We give you multiple updates every week and have been since the inception of the project. Some of the best talent in the industry is working on Star Citizen and Squadron 42, most of who are gamers that are inspired by your passion to push the boundaries of what is possible. You have watched us grow from a handful of people to a global staff of over 500, across 5 studios, 4 time zones and 3 countries. Considering there are only 193 countries in the world, that’s an amazing number and shows how universal the appeal of Star Citizen is.Īnd it’s more than just the funding, it’s been six years of ground breaking open development, where all of you have been actively involved in what we are building. We cover the globe, pole to pole from Antarctica to Svalbard and Jan Mayen. We have backers from 171 countries, from some of the smallest like San Marino or the Maldivesto the largest like India and China. To highlight just how global the support is, the person that took us past this milestone, Algared, hails from New South Wales in Australia and has been a backer since 2014. This is all grassroots, funded by gamers for gamers. How gamers from all over the world came together to finance one of the biggest and most ambitious projects ever embarked on. The true celebration is one of how a community came together to enable a shared dream to come to life. While the number is impressive, that is not what sets Star Citizen and Squadron 42 apart. The amount is the highest total for any project in the history of crowdfunding and is beyond anything I could have imagined in my wildest dreams. Star Citizen will be FREE for anyone to try from November 23 to November 30. The goal of course, is to get more potential buyers to join the 2,123,763 players (at the time of this writing) who have already joined the universe. Yes, that means you can try out every single playable ship that's already in the game. There are playable portions of it in the Alpha 3.3 build, including Arena Commander (starship PvP), Murray Cup (ship racing), and Star Marine (FPS) and the main Persistent Test Universe which is totally worth checking out if you haven't been following along.įor the curious or for invested players who paid for one of the many pledge packages and are still waiting on the game, anyone and everyone can try Star Citizen and all of its offerings for free this week. ![]() In that respect, players can buy progress and wealth in-game using real-world money even though there is no full game. ![]() Related: Star Citizen Is Really Pushing The Patience (And Wallets) Of Its Community ![]()
