Star Citizen

[TechnoHippyChic]

I saw a recent video of Star Citizen and good god does it look gorgeous. I went to the pledge page but I'm more confused than ever. If I spend $45 I get EITHER SP or MP? I have to spend at least $65 to get both? And if I spend $275 I get a big ass ship with a fishtank, but no SP? And what the hell is a Vindel?

Is anybody into this that can explain further? I was hoping there'd be a hefty discount for buying alpha, but these prices are pretty premium already...

Edit:
They've got a free thing until 12/5, went through the rigmarole to make an account, just have to download this 43 gig right quick..

I just wanna see how much more money gets funneled into this sh*t.

Yeah, a quarter billion so far, the ****? I spent some time in it last night during the expo thing. It's pretty cool. It hurt my old video card's feelings.
