Yeah Alpha should be in December but we do get the Hangar Module in June-August.

The hangar module is well a hangar that you get to see your ships in and walk around.
I believe you get to get in them and mess with them a little but able to fly them.

Looking forward to that for sure! I swear half of my time spent in these kind of games is just looking at the models.

I meant completeness of it. Yes it will look pretty, but how much of it will be functional.

Not too sure tbh.. I'll gladly wait for a polished product though.
With the team they have working on it though, I have high hopes.
Which I usually don't.

I do wonder what kind of shape it will be in when they release the alpha.

From that link I posted I'm going to guess its only just dog fighting in a set area.

"In December, the studio plans to launch the "Dogfighting Module."

"It will allow you to take the ship you pledged for and dogfight, sorta deathmatch style with other people," explained Roberts. "It won't have the persistent universe, it won't have the story, but we'll use it to balance the combat, the weapons, the ships also stress-test the online infrastructure."

Alpha is said to start in December.

Edit: YAY!!! 1k post. Only took 6 years!

http://img.techpowerup.org/130521/IMAG0423.jpg

Got mine yesterday too, it was weird as it came directly from China, the envelope had all these customs stickers in chinese and it was actually a nice surprise to find the card in it :)

Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside knowing there's some tangible evidence that the game is about to become a reality, doesn't it?

I guess you're right, I do get the updates every Friday on my email, but I kinda stopped checking every week after the first couple of months or so :p

Still, like you said, I was kinda cool opening that envelope and not knowing what was in there, I mean, my first reaction was, geez, I don't think I ordered a new screen protector for my cell (the cheap ones Amazon sell usually come directly from China :p) but then seeing that shiny card slide out of it put a huge smile on my face :D

Anyways, I'll stop by their website more often, I don't wanna miss any other cool stuff (like the Aurora LX) before it's too late ;)

I opted for the Colonel package. I think it boarders on just enough of a pledge but not going overboard.

Though I'm sure I will purchase some ships and such before release.
