    I bought it for a short time. They have a 30 day policy.

    I returned it within the week. Its just way too buggy. I dont even care about the pay to play ships, whatever.

    But the bugs with missions was awful. The NPC/AI fighting is nonexistant. The flight characteristics were better with n64’s star fox 64. Its just not even close to being there.

    Im a sucker for space games. If i want a flight sim ill play elite. If i want a space legs discovery game, ill play starfield. If i want to get stoned and look at weird animals with small heads and cool colors, ill fire up no mans sky.

      If you want to have fun blasting ships in space try Everspace 2 (very close gameplay to freelancer)

        No I purchased a game has releases going back to 2018 in 2023 and has raised over 600 million in capital.

        Then returned it when basic functionality was broken.

        The game has been ongoing since at least 2011 because that’s when I first heard about it and the Kickstarter was going.

          Squadron 42 has been the primary development focus, star citizen is just the playground made by a few devs with left over sq42 modules - until sq42 launches then star citizen will be the main development focus. Until then, star citizen is just a fundraising platform, I thought this was obvious
