knud 129 Posted June 12, 2014 Anyone else who is following (or even playing already) Star Citizen development? In short: It's Chris Roberts (from Wing Commander, Freelancer) next Epic Space game. It will be an online game, MMO even I would say. You can do lots of stuff, from exploring to mining, from smuggling to hunting that bounty. (and not everything is revealed yet.) I'm a backer myself (since october 2012) and I'm flying around in the pre-alpha Arena Commander module. Which is a lot of fun, but also lots of controls to master. Basic flying is easy, but power or shield management is still a challenge to do. My current fleet only contain 2 ships: Aurora LN and the Origin 300i. I'm planning to unlock some other ships when the game goes live - I really want more ship, but I've already spend 100$ on this game and it's only pre-alpha If you haven't seen any footage yet, this video is quite nice: http://www.gamespot.com/videos/e3-2014-star-citizen-stage-demo/2300-6419567/ And more info can be found here: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/about-the-game Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
world 84 Posted June 12, 2014 I'm looking forward to Star Citizen, but I haven't backed it. I hope it becomes everything it promises though-- I really miss sci-fi simulation games! (I'm a Mechwarrior fan ) Also, I'm really looking forward to Oculus Rift (or another VR system) integration with the game. This kind of game is a perfect match for VR headsets Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
