Never looked in to this game before but is there a way to play without spending 70 or 45 dollars? |

That's not limited to software, but at some point you have to accept nothing will ever be perfect. You don't have a bottomless well of money. Weren't they down to something like 30 million in 2017 before they got another ~50 mil investment? At a burn rate of $40-50 million a year how much do they have left? How many more digital tchotchkis can they sell? Nothing works yet, there isn't a playable base game, and there are still years of development ahead. How will they pay for it all? Their annual burnrate is really close to their annual earnings. Down to $30M? They've never had that much cash (although I haven't actually looked in the last couple of years, the numbers were from EU financial statements though if you care to Google it). It's not like they got handed 200-whatever million all at once, it's all been earned, and spent, over time. Not sure how their one investor's cash plays into it, although I guess that would put them over the $30M mark at least briefly. How will they pay for it all? The same way they have since Day 1, ship sales. I don't think they'll bring on any more investors before it launches. After that? Not sure. |

I have a confession to make. I don't want to make it but it is what it is. I keep coming back to play this stupid game. It keeps breaking on me and screwing me over in new ways nearly constantly, but I keep trying and making mental notes every time about what not to do to cause a problem to trigger.
I don't want to admit it after all the shit I talked but despite it's broken as fuck state, I keep trying to find ways to avoid the massive problems, so I can make progress...that must mean something. |

Now that the flight model is the way it is AC bores me so I've been kinda just messing around with the bug filled PU every few weeks. After all these years I think I know why I keep coming back for the abuse. I see potential, a shit load of it. And while they are few and far between I have had some pretty epic moments with my friends PVPing, first around Security Point Kareah, then Grim Hex and most recently Jump Town. Those spontaneous dog fights with multi crew ships in a large open universe against real players gives glimpses of what may come to pass and that is what has kept my interest. |

Reddit's star citizen ship sales is pretty decent, it's where I sold a bunch of stuff. That said, expect to get maybe 75% of melt price unless it's either super rare or the price has spiked a lot.
The AMD Omega is a rarity and worth a pretty penny though. Last I saw they were $100-150+ on there. You'll never be able to get it back though, and make sure it's not where your game package came from. Otherwise you'll kinda get locked out until you get another package. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: No biggy. There are 'grey market' places that specialize in Star Citizen resales (I think "Star-Hanger" is one); I don't think that they are scam-proof, but they should have processes in place to help minimize it. |
