Sie k\u00f6nnen bestehende Ebenen und Add-ons an jede E-Mail-Adresse \u00fcber die Seite Ihr Konto verschenken. Eine spezielle Geschenk-E-Mail wird an die Person gesendet, die Sie f\u00fcr das Geschenk ausw\u00e4hlen. Benutzer m\u00fcssen kein RSI-Konto haben: diejenigen, die dies nicht tun, werden aufgefordert, ein solches zu erstellen. Wenn Sie ein Multipack gekauft haben, kann es nun in einzelne Kopien des Spiels aufgeteilt werden, die jeweils einzeln begabt werden k\u00f6nnen. Wenn Sie auf der Suche nach dem perfekten Geschenk in letzter Minute sind, ist eine Kopie von Star Citizen der richtige Weg! Und denken Sie daran, dass die Versicherung zum Schiff geh\u00f6rt, wenn Sie das verschenken, damit diejenigen, die vor dem 26.11. registriert sind, Pakete mit Lebensversicherung f\u00fcr ihre Freunde kaufen k\u00f6nnen! Freunde k\u00f6nnen dann neue Schiffe aufr\u00fcsten, erg\u00e4nzen und kaufen, um ihre Sammlung mit den gleichen Vorteilen zu erweitern.\n\nEs gibt derzeit einen Fehler, der neuen Benutzern, die ein Geschenk von einem Original-Backer erhalten haben, nicht den urspr\u00fcnglichen Preisstatus verleiht, wenn sie zus\u00e4tzliche Pfandstufen oder Add-ons erwerben m\u00f6chten. Dies wird kurz nach den Feiertagen behoben.\n\nSprungbrett & Abonnements\nWir freuen uns, Ihnen mitteilen zu k\u00f6nnen, dass die allererste Ausgabe des reinen Abonnenten-Newsletters, Jump Point, ab sofort verf\u00fcgbar ist!\n\nWir haben beschlossen, allen Zugang zu dieser ersten Version zu gew\u00e4hren, damit jeder sehen kann, welche Art von extra tiefgr\u00fcndigen Inhalten wir dank der gro\u00dfz\u00fcgigen Unterst\u00fctzung unserer \"Development Subscribers\" liefern k\u00f6nnen. Zuk\u00fcnftige Ausgaben werden nur f\u00fcr diejenigen verf\u00fcgbar sein, die die Abonnementgeb\u00fchr bezahlen, aber die Inhalte, die durch das Abonnementprogramm aktiviert wurden, werden sich im Laufe der Zeit auf den Rest der Community auswirken, so dass jeder ein gro\u00dfes Dankesch\u00f6n an unsere Abonnenten sagen sollte.\n\nEs wird einen Pool von interessanten Personen geben, die zum Jump Point beitragen, wobei David Ladyman Chefredakteur ist. Sandi Gardiner wird die Speerspitze der Videosegmente bilden, und wenn die Teilnehmerzahl w\u00e4chst, k\u00f6nnen wir ein tieferes Video haben. Eines unserer spannenden Video-Segmente f\u00fcr den n\u00e4chsten Monat wird Chris sein, der Oculus Rift demonstriert.\n\nSind Sie daran interessiert, Imperator oder Centurion-Abonnent zu werden? Das System der wiederkehrenden Abonnementgeb\u00fchren ist ab sofort verf\u00fcgbar. Sie k\u00f6nnen sich mit PayPal US oder Kreditkarte anmelden, aber leider unterst\u00fctzt PayPal Europe keine Abonnements. Keine Sorge, wir f\u00fcgen die M\u00f6glichkeit hinzu, sich bald bei Amazon anzumelden! Aktuelle Abonnenten: Da der urspr\u00fcngliche Prozess eine einmalige Zahlung war, m\u00fcssen Sie den Link besuchen, um Ihr wiederkehrendes Abonnement zu starten.\n\nWingman's Hangar\n\nAu\u00dferdem wollten wir jeden in unsere neue w\u00f6chentliche Webcast-Show einf\u00fchren, bei der jeder einen Einblick in die Entwicklung des Spiels erh\u00e4lt und die M\u00f6glichkeit hat, einige der Leute zu treffen, die daran arbeiten, Star Citizen zum Leben zu erwecken.\n\nAb Januar wird Wingman's Hangar jeden Freitag um 11 Uhr CST \u00fcbertragen. Hier ist eine kleine Auswahl dessen, was w\u00e4hrend des heutigen ersten Webcasts passiert ist.\n\n\n\n\nFeiertage\n\nBitte beachten Sie, dass die Cloud Imperium Games an den Feiertagen vom 24. Dezember bis 2. Januar geschlossen sind. Wir werden unser Bestes tun, um von Zeit zu Zeit vorbeizuschauen, aber das gesamte Team hat in den letzten Wochen hart gearbeitet und sich eine Auszeit verdient. Bitte erwarten Sie eine Verz\u00f6gerung bei der Kontaktaufnahme mit uns bei Problemen mit dem Kundendienst.","zh_CN":"Gifting\nThe big news today is that a much-requested feature is now available, just in time for Christmas: you can now gift copies of Star Citizen to other people!
