I sold my Rear Admiral LTI package.

I get to play Star Citizen for free for the rest of my life! Heck, I could go buy a Connie right now and that would still be true!

I still have a Hornet and a Cutlass LTI hanging around... will have to see what the LTI upgrade paths are. It may be worth selling my Cutlass as well, if it has a serious LTI upgrade path to a more expensive ship.

Well any package is play for free for the rest of your life after the initial injection of $40-$45 roughly.

can't really beat that especially when you consider the scope of the game!

Maybe I should qualify my statement: I am being paid to play Star Citizen for the rest of my life! :P

... depending on expansion packs, what the Pay for Convenience features are like, and stuff like that.

Real life exploits.. Good for you. I guess you might finally upgraded yourself to Black Knight status.

Exploits? It's a supported feature of the game. There is nothing against the TOS about that at all.

I'm probably going to rebuy the Connie. I'm just using other people's money for it.

Not sure which method you chose.
  • Selling of accounts is against RSI TOS. Simply supposed your account is meant to be used by you.
  • Else 'Gifting' as what it meant. However I myself done something similar for friend but it due to LTI and it was done at cost not profit.
What you are doing right now is encouraging greed at the expense of RSI. You could have done it privately and nobody here would care.

Didn't sell my account. And making money isn't going to cause me to lose sleep at night, so save the sermon, reverend.

Miss the Wingmans Hangars ..the new one is terribly boring


Couldn't agree more. Peterson was far more charismatic as a host. I'm not sure Sandi and Ben are great host. Here's to hoping they figure it out.

My favorite person of the new cast is James. He's pretty hilarious. ^.^ But I do miss Wingman and Rob, even though I love Ben and Sandy in their own right. I do enjoy the new show, but Wingman's Hangar had something special.

Really enjoying the Alpha so far (only access to single player at the moment). Tons of work to do, but very enjoyable.

Greetings all,

I'd have to agree that the new 'Around the Verse' is more like a news broadcast. Somewhat dull and uninspiring.
- The addition of items in progress is great, and the bug hunting review also interesting.
- I agree that James fills the role of the nerd bug hunter rather nicely, somewhat missing what's happening around him though.
("what's the name of the show?" lol)

Sandi looks like she's trying to 'get in the spirit', with the costumes. But that last one was a fail. Too much.

They need to look to the design artists that are making the 'in system' venues artwork. The simplified styles of what the populous appears to wear. And it directly effects the cloths and materials seen, which may mean that the metal desk may need to go. (too much garage looking) Everything in this 'verse' has somewhat smooth lines and integrated designs, probably will need someone to redesign the 'news room' if they continue in this method of delivery.
- I'd suggest they add a few in verse 'corporate' sponsors to there news room look.

It's only the 3rd production so they have lots of room to improve.

That is the first really impressive thing I have seen from Star Citizen. Now, if they can pull off that level of detail for an entire 30-100km planet, with Freelancer style systems, Star Citizen is going to be sweet :)

Them not being professional speakers/talking heads (how many geeks are, frankly) I think they hit their stride over the next few episodes.

Damn this game is going to be beautiful when it's done. Cryengine may be a dog but it looks absolutely stunning.
