så smyger dom ut trailern redan nu

Det ska väl komma en längre trailer, eller?

Chris Roberts, who helped define the space sim genre in computer games during the 1990s with his Wing Commander ® and Privateer ® franchises, is back in the cockpit again with a new title he says will change the way people perceive games for the PC and will breathe new life into space combat games. The new game, Star Citizen™, was officially announced today at the Game Developers Conference (GDC) Online taking place at the Austin Convention Center. The game is being developed by Roberts’ Cloud Imperium™ Games studio, located in Los Angeles.

Roberts’ re-entry into gaming comes after he spent more than a decade as a director and producer in the Hollywood film industry. In 1990, he introduced Wing Commander to the world of PC gaming and the franchise went on to sell millions of units and spawned multiple sequels, a feature film and another highly successful game franchise, Privateer.

Star Citizen, already 12 months into production, will be launched on the PC and will include all the Chris Roberts hallmarks that fans of his games have come to expect over the years: high quality cutting-edge visuals and technology, a virtual world that is immersive and detailed, a sophisticated storyline that is wide in scope and visceral, heart-pounding space combat.

“In recent years, game designers have stopped innovating and pushing the boundaries of what you can do in this genre,” says Roberts. “I plan on bringing that kind of development mentality back into PC gaming and space sims in particular.

“There is a lot of noise out there regarding social and mobile games right now, and I think PC gamers are feeling a little left out of the mix. But the PC is still incredibly capable of presenting an experience that doesn’t take a back seat to any other platform out there, including consoles. With my game, I want PC gamers to stand up, be counted and get excited again about all the great experiences their computer can deliver.”

At GDC Online Roberts also announced a program to bring his devotees and other interested parties much closer to the development process. A crowd funding site has been posted at http://www.robertsspaceindustries.com to help raise the necessary funds for completing development of the project. “Our purpose today,” said Roberts, “is to allow our fans to join us in this process early. It will likely be another two years before the full product is ready for release, but early backers will be able to play a version of the game a year from now.

“We are taking this approach to fund-raising for several reasons,” said Roberts. “For one, this route takes the traditional game publisher out of the mix and enables us to take the millions of dollars normally used by publishers for a triple-A title and plow them right back into developing the game. Secondly, using our own crowd funding mechanism allows us to reach out to our international fans, who have been devoted followers of my games in the past. Thirdly, going direct gets us much closer to our fans and allows us to focus more on the community side, create more updates for our fans and directly interact with them as we are making the game.”

Star Citizen, still in early development stages, will not require a subscription, but will not be free-to-play either. Roberts says the game will be available for a one-time purchase. And while players will be able to play in the Star Citizen universe for free, there will also be virtual items available for purchase with in-game credits so players can customize their ships and other items.

The game is being developed for PC only. More information about Star Citizen can be found at http://www.robertsspaceindustries.com.

Så det är alltså nåt MMO-ish?

Läser man på sidan låter det som det nya Freelancer ju! Mmmm...

Jag tror dom har råd att slutföra projektet själva- det skulle vara helt orimligt att investera ett år av kostnader på ett projekt som hänger på tiggeri

Nja, det vanliga i ett sånt här läge är väl att man vänder sig till en utgivare och "tigger" där i stället.

ja men nu kan ju utgivaren be en be fansen först. varför inte liksom, blöd lite på tv.

men som jag tolkar det nu (efter att ha spontanreagerat lite slött) tigger dom bara.

Snyggt.

Your move consoles

Planeras att släppas 2014.

Två år liksom.

Man får spelet om man donerar över 30$

Va? Nu hänger jag inte riktigt med? Skulle utgivaren be fansen om pengar istället? Vad är då poängen med en utgivare?

det känns i sammanhanget lite olustigt.. som att fansens godtrogenhet kan komma att utnyttjas.

Antar att de tyckte det gick trögt att samla in pengar på sin egna sida bara?
