Star Citizen at $77M [Mar 30, 2015, 09:00 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
The Roberts Space
Industries website reveals that crowdfunding of Star Citizen has now
passed the $77 million mark.
GameSpot notes this includes a million dollars raised in a five-day period,
and it looks like this includes well over $600K collected on Saturday, which
seems to be the result of a new
a new ship for the game going on sale. Here's word on this $250.00 ship
package:
We are offering this pledge ship to help fund Star Citizen’s development. All of these ships will be available for in-game credits in the final universe, and they are not required to start the game. Additionally, all decorative ‘flare’ items will also be available to acquire in the finished game world. The goal is to make additional ships available that give players a different experience rather than a particular advantage when the persistent universe launches.
The Vanguard is being offered for the first time as a limited concept sale. This means that the ship design meets our specifications, but it is not yet ready to display in your Hangar or to fight in Arena Commander. The sale includes Lifetime Insurance on the ship hull and a pair of decorative items for your Hangar. A future patch will add a Vanguard poster and then once the in-game model is finished you will also be given an in-game Vanguard mini ship model! In the future, the ship price will increase and the offer will not include Life Time Insurance or these extras.
