I feel like I just wrote one of these…
Today during the live stream (about an hour into it), Star Citizen surpassed the $32 Million funded mark. Â In fact, at the time of writing this, it’s almost at $33 Million (so, expect to see another ‘look there goes a million bucks’ post tomorrow).
The $32 Million mark unlocked the second of the ‘community vote’ ships:
- Aegis Surveyor – The Surveyor, from noted military contractor Aegis, is an industrial-quality salvage ship. Equipped with a reinforced cargo bay, a long-range jump drive and launch pods for unmanned drones, the Surveyor is an ideal ship for taking advantage of deep space wrecks. Tractor beams, floodlights, scanner options and docking ports round out the tool chest on this capable, utilitarian spacecraft.
We also got the $34 Million community voted goal revealed:
- MISC Hull C (Discreet) – Scaling from small “box trucks†to massive supertankers, the MISC range of cargo hulls (A-D) are the standard goods transporter in human space. Extremely configurable,MISC Hulls can be adapted for most any type of transport job: from standard bulk shipping on the patrolled spacelanes to armored cargo hauling on the frontier. While these pre-configured hulls are primarily used for legitimate purposes, the MISC Hull Cs have recently become the favorite for criminals who modify the ship with advanced sensor shadow technology, quick-decompress holds and a variety of hidden compartments without modifying the ship’s body so it will appear to onlookers as standard everyday transports.
That’s right… the smuggling ship finally won! Â Go Smugglers!
Voting is still open, to pick the $35 Million goal.. our choices are down to:
- Bounty Hunting
- Cargo Hauling
- Information Runner
So… go vote Information Runner this time! Â And thanks to all the Star Citizen backers with crazy spending habits for kicking us over this goal!
