In Star Citizen , the single-player campaign “Squadron 42” will soon no longer be part of the main game. Currently, a free-fly campaign is running, which is a demo for everyone.
Critics of Star Citizen are rubbing their hands: new ammunition. At Cloud Imperium, they are “separating” the single-player campaign “Squadron 42” (with the Hollywood stars) from the main game starting February 14. Squadron 42 can then be bought either alone or as “additional content” for Star Citizen.
Critics are already saying: They are selling a game twice.
Supporters of the project argue: Wait, these are modules, that’s okay. It can stand alone. Not every Star Citizen player is interested in Squadron 42 and vice versa. The fact that both were available together was one of the perks for the initial backers, which is now coming to an end. And it doesn’t matter to us, we already have both parts.
At Cloud Imperium, they say: Those who still want both should “pledge” by February 14; that is, participate with a corresponding high donation to receive the package – the rest of the world knows this principle as “buying something.” If they do this, they will receive Star Citizen with Squadron 42 at the current price. This is the lowest price possible..

To allow players a glimpse of the cat in the sack, a “free-fly” event is running again. Next week, all those who already have an account can play the new Star Citizen Alpha 2.1.2, try out the Area Commander and use the Social Module. Those who do not have an account can simply create one. All further information is available here at Star Citizen.
