Legatus Pack Updated - Now $35,000

rpmcmurphy

Original Legatus pack was available to those who had already spent $10,000 and would set them back a cool $27,000

As the ship selling has continued the pack has fallen behind, hence this revision.

The pack is now $35,000 (42,000 GBP/EUR)

Happy Xmas from CIG!

P.S just get the kids some oranges or lumps of coal.

Come on dont be a hater. this package helps support the best game every created. If they sell enough or them they might raise 30 or 40 million. Which is about 5 times what Chris said he needed to make a game for the ages.

What I want to know is how many of these ships actually exist in the tech demo right now and how many are still jpeg status. Or whatever else this package is offering. What percentage of it is 'playable' right now.

This pack always made little sense.

Unless the rich boys want to get more of the same things they already own 

I don't know any that did tho

The percentage of playable ships is good enough.

RSI's problem at the moment is that their engine and game mechanisms are too unfinished. They've never had trouble making the ships flyable and able to shoot each other, as long as you don't expect special mechanisms to work or the game engine being anywhere close to finished.

>>>> how many of these ships actually exist >>>

90 ships and vehicles are playable at the moment.

Have fun

35K? LOL - TALK ABOUT GOING AFTER WHALES. How many people can actually spend that much on a game? I mean my car was 10K less and practical.

This is what SC is about. Gouging people, promising the unobtainable and, never delivery a game out of alpha.

Unless the point of it is to say, "You may not be one of the true whales who can afford this $35k package, but here's this other, cheap package for only $5k."

Yeah, there are people....

I'll just put this right here...

True. This game is more about garnering cash for the company than actually producing a game.

If I get a mortgage I reckon I might just afford it

Don't worry, guys.  It's not pay to win.  You'll be able to earn all these ships in-game with just 9,700,000 hours of grinding.  So, it all equals out.

So much this. A good example that comes to mind is their mine laying ship(costs 675 dollars and was announced at a dinner with CI that cost about 275 dollars a ticket and only if you have done them the honour of spending at least 1000 in their cash shop). Already selling it in their shop but the mine laying mechanic isn’t implemented yet and I doubt they have any idea how best to do it. The technical debt keeps piling up

RSI taking FOMO to the next level. You pay a ridiculous price and still miss out.

For $35,000, you could buy a used Cray supercomputer --  an entry level model, sure, but still a supercomputer.  That plus $150,000 worth of rewiring the house, putting in some industrial cooling systems, installing a raised floor, maybe a new sub-basement to house it.  Maybe then I'll actually be able to play Star Citizen, should it ever release.

OR you could just click into the graphic and see what computer hardware actually runs Star Citizen at the quality you are aiming for. And then check out where your own rig would be in that grafic. This is actual data from the players, not theoretical projections.

If you activate the "Display Outlying Data" you may see the extreme end rigs. I guess that is where you will find your Cray ;-)

Have fun

I see the concept of information instead of propaganda is not in your right ballpark.

Did I ask for propaganda, er, information?  I must have missed that.

You were just talking nonsense.

Is any of that going to matter when the game doesn’t come out anytime soon and they keep upgrading things so it doesn’t look like a sad game that has been bypassed by the newest generation?
