Star Citizen, the Cloud Imperium Games-developed space sim and role-playing game, is continuing to hit massive crowd-funding milestones. Less than a year after the company touted $600 million raised via its community for the game's ongoing development, the $700 million mark has officially been passed.


The confirmation arrives from the company's own funding tracker, which happily displays "700,461,674" dollars raised at the time of writing. The tracker's built-in timeline also shows a sharp uptick in funds raised during the past couple of weeks. This is also when the game kicked off its latest free-to-play event, offering non-backers access to the title's persistent universe as well as almost any ship to fly during the trial. On May 25 alone, the title raised almost three million dollars.

Is Firesprite still working on this game? And most importantly, when will people realize that this game is a scam?

if there's one type of milestone Cloud Imperium Games is really good at hitting, it's a crowdfunding milestone.

How does anyone still believe a word of what that douchebag says? "Everything and more?" Who the fuck does he think he's fooling?

They don't need to break even anything. It is payed by people, not their pocket.

They are master scammers.
