We wanted to give you a heads up that we'll be updating our minimum system requirements with the update coming to the RSI Launcher tomorrow. Specifically, AVX (Advanced Vector Extensions) CPU technology will be a requirement going forward. It's important to note that only older CPUs don't utilize this technology, and we expect very few of you to be impacted by this change.
AVX technology was introduced with Intel's Sandy Bridge processor and AMD's Bulldozer processor (both released in 2011). This means that processors that pre-date this will no longer be able to effectively launch Star Citizen from the updated launcher.

I like to think that if 2020 wasn't such a cluster-f**k of a year that there would be an investigative journalism piece being done on this company........
That'll come after an actual game fails to materialize. Make no mistake, this scam will be taught in business schools for years to come.
