1,000,000 Citizens means no more Passes to Play

"Starting today, we are eliminating ‘Alpha Access’ and the $5 module passes. Anyone who has pledged for a Star Citizen Package can now play today without worrying they won’t have access to some portion of the ‘Verse in the future. No Star Marine pass, no Alpha 2.0 pass… no additional payment needed for any module in the works, pre-release. Going forward, should we need to put out some sort of limited release it will be done through the PTU test server. All backers will have access to any live release, the moment it publishes."

Good. As long as current pledges don't offer things exclusive to OB, I'm cool, as will be most of the RSI forums. I can still recall the hundreds of threads demanding they remove this very thing.

Also nice:

in addition, I’d like to reward our earliest supporters who made it possible to get to this point. Everyone with an ‘alpha access’ package will be awarded 10,000 UEC; everyone who purchased an Arena Commander pass individually will be given 5,000 UEC (with the cap raising appropriately to allow this.)

 

Did you know this forum has an unofficial/official Star Citizen group? Head over to our organization's page, numerous forum threads or our LTTC Discord Server to find out more.

I was trying to figure out when they would allow beta access

Aye, they do. Sometimes that isn't a good thing. I have seen the community freak out over something that isn't definite and stated to change with the following updates force the devs hands to stop other work just to make those changes at the moment. And if they didn't? A thread would pop up ranting about how his money was stolen from him, that he was going to refund or sue or that it was all a scam.

 

Sometimes I just wish they would remember they are the game creators...not us.

 

Also nice:

 

 

Sweet!

Hmmm I should have enough for that space crab too :)

Weapons I'm holding off on until we're further into development so I have a better idea of what I'm buying ;)

After my Banu Santa costume

This is why you should leave the study of non human cultures to the rest of us. Pffft, Banu follow the Rabbinical traditions with 8 days of tax free trading. You're thinking of Xi-an christmas with a Cronenberg that has a blue nose.

 

For shame....

Look the kids want a visit from a Banu Santa that's what they get!

Sure they'll be upset when they find out he's not real but at least they will be happy for now!

Anyone else looked at their UEC lately... looks like it was 10K UEC per alpha pass not just 10K UEC if you had an alpha pass... buying spree!!! :D

@colt92 they updated the post, if you brought access you got store credit instead, if you had an alpha pack you got uec

 

I actually like that better. I prefer to invest those 5$ in the soon-ish Avenger upgrade.
