I just thought there should be a thread about it here. Ok everyone already knows but there might be the odd one or two who have been fishing in Alaska for six months and havent heard about it. Chris Roberts, the dev and director of WingCommander games and film as well as Privateer and Freelancer has launched Squadron42 SP/coop military campaign & StarCitizen F2P MMO under the Roberts Space Industries banner. Its space sim Jim but not as we know it, the models look light years ahead seriously. RSI fundraising site here... http://www.robertsspaceindustries.com/ Kickstarter here... http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cig/star-citizen David Braben, originator of Elite and Elite:Frontier not to mention the Raspberry Pi has also launched a Kickstarter for Elite : Dangerous the new iteration of Elite with coop type multiplayer. Kickstarter here... http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/146 ... -dangerous
OK as of now Elite has PayPal donation. Unclear yet whether this will link to the kickstarter total, the hope is it will. Frontier have promised all PayPal pledges refunded if the Kickstarter fails. http://elite.frontier.co.uk/kickstarter.html
