Cool...I can pretend I'm a BSG Starfighter pilot.

I hope it supports Eyefinity.

"space combat sim"

based closely on real space combat :/

[U4EA]

Holy shit man, or it could just be a simulation of what they think space combat would be like if it existed [or when it comes to pass]. Why are you always so crotchety? Have tried douching, to get out all the sand from your vagina?

yes, i mad

[Doombrain]

looks boring. pew pew.

For $2700 I can get a bunch of credits and a few ships and stuff. And ship insurance. It's like car insurance, but for ships.

a simulation of what they think space combat would be like if it existed

usually the word 'sim' is reserved for simulations of activities that people currently take part in

do you think Doom is a sim of what fighting Martian hell creatures "would be like if they existed"?

[MKJ]

Interesting. I guess it would be a shooting sim. Well, sans the BFG then.

By that stretch, any wargame wouldnt be a sim unless the war depicted actually happened.

UEES "Paul Steed"?

Star Citizen won't be dumbed down for console release

Sounds almost too good to be true.

Fuck me...thats insane.

[losCHUNK]

Aye, did see the numbers going up and up.

Now when we also consider that DayZ standalone has sold over 3m pre orders (like 60m?), their production thus far has been great.

Wait, the annual convention is called "Citizencon", and no-one bats an eyelid?

[Captain]

I forgot this was a thing.

Meh.
