Greetings Citizens,

The response to the 300 Series promotion has been incredible! Your support isn’t just making Star Citizen a reality, it’s changing the face of game development. In fact, you pushed the project over an important milestone: over the weekend Star Citizen backers officially passed the $10,266,844 pledged to Pebble Watch, making Star Citizen the number one crowd funded project of all time. That’s a record you should be proud of. But we’re just getting started!

I would like to clarify one further thing about the commercial: the video you saw wasn’t just made in-engine, it used actual game models. You’re looking at the 300i mesh you will see in Star Citizen and not some high-poly fake created for cutscenes and good PR. What you’re seeing is what you’ll play.

Many of you have written to request separate images from the 300i brochure to use as wallpapers and for your own websites. I’m happy to make them available now.

We’ve also had a number of questions about the 315p and 325a upgrade packages. These will turn one existing 300i into the ship of your choice. You cannot add both to your account without having two base 300i ships to convert in the first place. We created the option for early backers who may have pledged for a 300i before knowing that an exploration or military model would be available. There is no 350r upgrade pack because the ship’s hull is physically different in order to support the twin thrusters.
