The crowdfunding financing of the space MMORPG Star Citizen is progressing cheerfully. Now the mark of 113 million US dollars has been broken.
Star Citizen is simply fascinating: The game, which began as the unofficial successor to the Wing Commander series with an online mode and a huge persistent universe, is increasingly evolving into a kind of ultimate space game. It’s no longer just about space battles and flights through space. Now you can even land on space stations and planets, walk around and engage in shooter battles.
113 million dollars!
Since many have been waiting for such a game, the crowdfunding financing is also progressing cheerfully. The mark of 113 million US dollars has now been broken. Last December, it was still 100 million dollars. So more than 13 million dollars have been raised in less than half a year.
The money is used to implement the vision of the game. And the developers want to stay true to this vision and assure fans that they will keep the promises made for the game.
Everyone on the team would basically be a gamer and would not only want to develop this game – whether as a programmer, designer, artist or in another position – everyone would also absolutely want to play it.
A lot has been achieved in recent months and the Alpha 2.4 is currently being prepared. With the upcoming update, the team will launch many systems live that will lay the foundation for some features that will make Star Citizen the MMO everyone wishes for. The speed at which Star Citizen is now getting new systems online will also continue to increase. A lot of experience has been gained, which also benefits the quality of the game.
Persistence is coming soon
This includes, for example, a system for customizing the hero with various outfits or the ability to attach weapons to ships. Work is also being done on the persistence system so that everything that happens in the game has lasting effects. In addition, testing is being conducted to ensure that everything really works well and is fun.
The work on Star Citizen is progressing well and the MMO is increasingly taking the form that one would expect from a finished product.
Star Citizen is set to become the 'best damn space simulation of all time.' Nothing more and nothing less. The mastermind behind the project is Chris Roberts, w...
