That there was still an audience for the kind of games I created with Wing Commander and Freelancer. To prove that Space Combat wasn\u2019t finished as a genre\n\nI hoped that the answer would be yes, that the demand would be there and that it would come together in a way that would ultimately let me build the world I have been dreaming about for many years.\n\nWhat I didn\u2019t expect was how quickly it all happened.\n\nLast night, just four and half days after our Kickstarter campaign launched, we passed the $500,000 mark, making it successfully funded, and another Kickstarter success story.\n\nAs I write this we are less than $50,000 from reaching the RSI goal of $2 million in overall pledges that makes Star Citizen a \u201cgo\u201d. It\u2019s unbelievable.\n\nI\u2019m proud to represent this cause and I\u2019m tremendously humbled by the incredible community that has rallied to my side. Not just the donations\u2014which have been astounding \u2014but also the stories and the creativity I\u2019ve encountered interacting with you in the comments and on the message boards and elsewhere. Like me, you have all seen Star Citizen, no matter what you may have called it, in your head for many years\u2026 and thanks to your collected efforts; I\u2019m going to build it for you.\n\nI have two pieces of information to share with you tonight. The first is the long-awaited design document about Star Citizens five pledge ships. Time and time again you\u2019ve asked what an Aurora or a Hornet or a Constellation is. I\u2019m happy now to be able to share our design concepts. These are the specifications we\u2019re building on as we create the game world and they\u2019re the descriptions I have sent to the artists who are putting together the ship models. Normally you wouldn\u2019t see this kind of inside information, especially not this early, but I hope you will find it interesting and get a kick out of getting an insider\u2019s view of how game development works.\n\nThe second piece of news is the news that you can finally upgrade your pledges at RobertsSpaceIndustries.com. If you\u2019ve decided you would like to upgrade to a higher tier of ship or if you would like to increase your support for the project for any other reason, you now have that option. In addition we have heard you loud and clear on the Forums, on Kickstarter, Facebook and on the recent poll. You want the ability to add additional ships to your base package. So we\u2019ve given you that option too. I hope you\u2019ll enjoy seeing our plans for these ships and then choosing the one that best fits how you want to play the game.\n\nTomorrow, we\u2019re going to be adding additional information about stretch goals\u2026 more specific levels and in-game rewards that you can achieve. In the near future we will have the upgraded forums online and we will start opening additional content at the RSI website. There\u2019s a lot to look forward to!\n\nSo, pilots: we\u2019ve won our first furball! But, there\u2019s plenty more work to do. Let\u2019s knock out the $2M in overall pledges that green lights Star Citizen, then set our sights on the stretch goals. The more of these we can hit, the richer and more varied the game I can deliver. We\u2019re less than half way through the campaign, so I know we can go much further. If you\u2019ve already backed, spread the word. If you\u2019re still waiting to, then please join the cause.\n\nThank you, truly, for your unbelievable support. We have $45,840 to go! We can get there by MORNING!\n\nChris Roberts","de_DE":"Hallo zusammen!\n\nVor weniger als zwei Wochen habe ich mich an die Gaming-Community gewandt, um zu beweisen, dass das PC-Spiel nicht tot war. Dass es noch ein Publikum f\u00fcr die Art von Spielen gab, die ich mit Wing Commander und Freelancer erstellt habe. Um zu beweisen, dass Space Combat nicht als Genre fertig war.\n\nIch hoffte, dass die Antwort ja sein w\u00fcrde, dass die Nachfrage da sein w\u00fcrde und dass sie so zusammenkommen w\u00fcrde, dass ich letztendlich die Welt aufbauen k\u00f6nnte, von der ich seit vielen Jahren tr\u00e4ume.\n\nWas ich nicht erwartet habe, war, wie schnell das alles passiert ist.\n\nGestern Abend, nur viereinhalb Tage nach dem Start unserer Kickstarter-Kampagne, haben wir die 500.000 $-Marke \u00fcberschritten und damit eine erfolgreiche Finanzierung und eine weitere Erfolgsgeschichte von Kickstarter erreicht.\n\nW\u00e4hrend ich dies schreibe, sind wir weniger als 50.000 Dollar davon entfernt, das RSI-Ziel von 2 Millionen Dollar an Gesamtversprechen zu erreichen, das Star Citizen zu einem \"Go\" macht. Es ist unglaublich.\n\nIch bin stolz darauf, diese Sache zu vertreten, und ich bin enorm gedem\u00fctigt von der unglaublichen Gemeinschaft, die sich an meiner Seite versammelt hat. Nicht nur die Spenden - die erstaunlich waren - sondern auch die Geschichten und die Kreativit\u00e4t, die ich bei der Interaktion mit dir in den Kommentaren, auf den Messageboards und anderswo erlebt habe. Wie ich habt ihr alle den Sternenb\u00fcrger, egal wie ihr ihn genannt habt, viele Jahre lang in eurem Kopf gesehen.... und dank eurer gesammelten Bem\u00fchungen; ich werde ihn f\u00fcr euch bauen.\n\nIch habe zwei Informationen, die ich heute Abend mit dir teilen muss. Das erste ist das lang erwartete Konstruktionsdokument \u00fcber die f\u00fcnf Versprechensschiffe von Star Citizens. Immer wieder hast du gefragt, was ein Aurora oder eine Hornisse oder eine Konstellation ist. Ich freue mich, Ihnen nun unsere Designkonzepte vorstellen zu k\u00f6nnen. Das sind die Spezifikationen, auf denen wir bei der Erstellung der Spielwelt aufbauen, und das sind die Beschreibungen, die ich an die K\u00fcnstler geschickt habe, die die Schiffsmodelle zusammenstellen. Normalerweise w\u00fcrdest du diese Art von Insider-Informationen nicht sehen, besonders nicht so fr\u00fch, aber ich hoffe, du wirst sie interessant finden und einen Kick bekommen, wenn du eine Insideransicht davon bekommst, wie die Spieleentwicklung funktioniert.\n\nDie zweite Nachricht ist die Nachricht, dass Sie Ihre Zusagen endlich auf RobertsSpaceIndustries.com aktualisieren k\u00f6nnen. Wenn Sie sich entschieden haben, auf eine h\u00f6here Schiffsebene aufzur\u00fcsten oder wenn Sie Ihre Unterst\u00fctzung f\u00fcr das Projekt aus einem anderen Grund erh\u00f6hen m\u00f6chten, haben Sie jetzt diese M\u00f6glichkeit. Au\u00dferdem haben wir Sie in den Foren, auf Kickstarter, Facebook und bei der letzten Umfrage laut und deutlich geh\u00f6rt. Du m\u00f6chtest die M\u00f6glichkeit haben, zus\u00e4tzliche Schiffe zu deinem Basispaket hinzuzuf\u00fcgen. Also haben wir dir auch diese M\u00f6glichkeit gegeben. Ich hoffe, dass es dir Spa\u00df macht, unsere Pl\u00e4ne f\u00fcr diese Schiffe zu sehen und dann dasjenige auszuw\u00e4hlen, das am besten zu dir passt, wie du das Spiel spielen willst.\n\nMorgen werden wir zus\u00e4tzliche Informationen \u00fcber Stretch-Ziele hinzuf\u00fcgen.... spezifischere Levels und Belohnungen im Spiel, die du erreichen kannst. In naher Zukunft werden wir die aktualisierten Foren online stellen und mit der Er\u00f6ffnung weiterer Inhalte auf der RSI-Website beginnen. Es gibt viel, worauf man sich freuen kann!\n\nAlso, Piloten: Wir haben unseren ersten Furball gewonnen! Aber es gibt noch viel mehr zu tun. Lassen Sie uns die $2M in den Gesamtversprechen heraus klopfen, dass gr\u00fcne Lichter Stern-B\u00fcrger, dann unsere Ziele auf die Ausdehnung Ziele einstellen. Je mehr davon wir treffen k\u00f6nnen, desto reichhaltiger und vielf\u00e4ltiger ist das Spiel, das ich anbieten kann. Wir sind weniger als zur H\u00e4lfte der Kampagne fertig, also wei\u00df ich, dass wir noch viel weiter gehen k\u00f6nnen. Wenn du bereits unterst\u00fctzt hast, verbreite die Nachricht. Wenn du immer noch darauf wartest, dann schlie\u00dfe dich bitte der Sache an.\n\nVielen Dank, wirklich, f\u00fcr Ihre unglaubliche Unterst\u00fctzung. Wir haben noch 45.840 Dollar vor uns! Wir k\u00f6nnen es bis zum Morgen schaffen!\n\nChris Roberts","zh_CN":"Hello everyone!\n\nLess than two weeks ago, I reached out to the gaming community to help me prove that the PC game wasn\u2019t dead.
