    Quite likely to reach $600M later in the year.

    I think at this point they are just holding out for the 1 billion record. Maybe that's when it will officially launch  :D

    Hey, a new marketing "campaign"

    Give us a billion dollars or the game is never coming out...

    Extortion as an incentive...

    if you round down, average Star Citizen is spening $100+ on the game. That is pretty amazing imho.

    I suspect that like most online games it's the whales which are contributing to the greatest part of the spending and not the average Rocket Rick.

    It's sort of a status thing, I recall reading some threads on their forums where players routinely shared how many ships they had purchased, how much they were in for etc.

    Quite a bit of back patting and giving kudos to each other instead of the derision or scorn one might have expected from "normal" people on a typical online forum.

    I imagine that's largely a result of heavy moderation more than anything else.

    Most people won't let someone take a crap in the middle of their house or make comments on how ugly the children are.  ;)

    Maybe you could just report on the $5M marks, still probably would be a couple times a months, right?

    It must be like a job by now..."Sigh, guess I better check how SC's Funding is doing" Its a bit like me checking the weather forecast everyday, eventually it is going to be really sunny and I can launch off on a holiday. Until then same old forecast. :)

    One year ago the post said 458 million.  It now says 569.  Thats 111 million in the last year. Sandie is by far the most talented person on the team.

    569$Millions lol. That format is just so obnoxious to look at. Just type it out as $569 million, or 569 million USD or even just $...... and it's MILLION, not Millions, we are dealing with US Dollar not Euro or what weird notation you are used to using.

    No, but since people were talking I felt now was as good a time as any to air one of many of my grievances.

    It's like the 4x of game development .Explore, Expand, Exploit, Exterminate, only the game master makes you wait 1 year for each turn.
