My friend sent me a Rear Admiral package but then I realized he sent it on accident so I sent it back.
I had a Constellation for like 20 mins!... but then it was gone.
Maybe when Modules/Alphas/Betas become available.
Though this thread has a lot of info/viewers, so maybe just rename the title of the thread eventually.
Yea, I can't wait for this game. I can't wait to fly around using my Nvidia Surround setup. I'm going to be a smuggler! I just need to find me a Wookiee and I'm set.

I'm fairly certain most people interested in this are the ones who have been wanting a decent action space combat game in a large universe.
Eve combat is boring, but the corporation and trade stuff is good.
Freelancer's combat is great, but it had little room for real universe changing stuff besides the campaign.
X is long a tedious, but gives you to option to command huge fleets of ships and own space stations and trading facilities.
I like to think Star citizen is an amalgamation of all these good points, minus the boring combat that is point and click and wait for things to fire and come off cooldown.
I enjoyed Eve for a few months, but the monthly fee was just too much for a casual gamer like me.. I've actually still got 1 or 2 ISK sitting in my inv back in the game , caught them on sale at Amazon, paid $38 for 3 of them, used one, decided I had other things to do, and let em sit. I'll have to reactivate to start again, so not sure what I'll do...
Freelancer was awesome for combat, but I definitely missed the economy of Elite. Never actually did X series, altho I considered Albion prelude not too long ago...
I agree, same here. I've put some money in a few F2P games (Tribes:Ascend, Gonna back Rift when it goes in June..), I figure if they keep me occupied for at least a couple of months, I owe the developers at least a month's WoW subscription.
You're going to be a pirate killer in that thing. That Hornet is a fighter!
I, apparently have a very nice looking ship that is the equivalent of a BMW and my other ship is similar to a compact work truck.
Once the game is out, I might have to get a Constellation class.
*I could possibly set up a TPU squad, lemme look into it.

I'm a Freelancer, passed on the other ships for now, may consider one at some point, but I let KS get the better of my wallet, and definitely looking thin back there

Not sure what we'll get from SC, but I'm stoked as crap about it, and I think we'll get enough to be worth what we put in. Between that and Elite, oughta have my Space Fix in.
This is going to be such a good game..it actually looks like the producers have taken some quality time to make it the best it can possibly be!argh!soooo coooool xD
Yeah I agree... and I have both ships! I'm not too concerned with looks, but more with functionality. I think I'm going to go for the militarized version of the 300i, I'll get a tractor beam for the freelancer along with extra cargo space.
I just upgraded my 300i to a 325a, I really hope Chris Roberts stops releasing ships and upgrades, I can't stop upgrading my ships, and the game's not even out yet
I'm fully committed to this game and can't wait to try the alpha, erocker, you said you're getting a Freelancer too? You can count on my services to provide you with some escort on interdiction missions!

All I could afford was the Mercenary package right now, but I intend to buy a few upgrades before launch next year, nothing large or freighter-like, but a good assault ship/cruiser.

The Aurora looks like a really nice ship to start the game, as for an assault ship, the Hornet probably fits the bill. I wonder how hard it'll be / how much grinding you'll have to go through to actually afford an upgrade using the in game economy.
