[gatti-man]

I'm blind from excitement!

 

[Perkel]

It's real history people.

 

[Twinduct]

Did they announce what the 6 Mill stretch was for?

 

[Xane]

Saw this in chat, DAMN!

 

[maquiladora]

$6 million, who would have believed it. Amazing.

 

[Perkel]

 

[Zabojnik]

 

[pottuvoi]

Sweet.

 

[Xavien]

One of the goals of 6 million was Orchestral Soundtrack but i don't know what else.

 

[Keasar]

 

[Acosta]

YESSSSSSSS!

 

[Teleporter]

How much GAF spent on this dream alone? Me!? 85 USD and still cashin`... !

There were 3 basic goal when it started. Amount which will get even more funding from private investors. If they would get 2MLN they would create Squadron 42 only without multiplayer or open space part. But still after relising that they would continue their work with Freelancer part. It is just it would be in few more years.

2MLN Squadron 42
4MLN Squadron 42 with Freelancer like open space
6MLN Full sized experience with big single player Squadron 42 and big Freelecer type open space game in full glory.


With 6 MLN we will get full sized Wing Commander like game mode with Freelancer openess and persistent open world.

Just checked a recent kickstarter email, this is what they said about 6 million stretch goal:

Six million was what it would take us to build the game we were imagining with all the bells and whistles we wanted included. Well, here we are with just over eight hours to go and that impossible goal where everything is unlocked is suddenly in sight. At six million you'll launch the game with 100 systems, a full orchestral score and a free copy of the first Squadron 42 mission disk, Behind Enemy Lines

[dmr87]

Just got my 37$ pledge in there, 6 million total is sick.

Which isn't anything different what i said. Original 6MLN was point when this game will be created in full glory as Chris wanted to.

Can't get logged into the site so could someone tell me what lifetime insurance for ships and future upgrade pricing are and how much they cost?

 

[Xane]

For every ship you pledge for during the campaign automatically rewards you with a life-time insurance. This insurance only covers the hull-cost of your ship. You will still lose upgrades / cargo / whatever else.

 

[Zaptruder]

How much GAF spent on this dream alone? Me!? 85 USD and still cashin`... !

$280 ($250 tiers plus a couple skins and modders manual).

Might spend more on shirt down the track.

don't think that info is finalized yet.

Certainly, just wanted to go into further detail about it, that's all

 

[XPE]

Backed =D

poor student here so could only go for the merc pack!

 

[bj00rn_]

6million should be enough to make space debris that makes the ships look like they go faster than 3miles per hour..

with that said, I am a backer

I also of course pledgded for Elite: Dangerous,..

 

[Zabojnik]

250$ here. I expect I'll be throwing at least another 100$ their way in the near future. T-shirt, ship model(s), hardcover manuals, posters ... Might even go for a 10$ sub, who knows. This is basically my dream game, so I don't really give a fuck about spending too much.

So lets say you don't have ins. You ship goes Kablowey! And lets say you have no money to fix it up. Hows that all work? What happens?

I would hope you can get a basic ship for free in that position, like EVE. But its not been clarified yet.

Start New game ?

Open World will be persistent so you can go broke like in Freelancer X3 or any other open world persistent universe.


I still to this day i remember when i bought destroyer in X3 selling all my ships and i could't buy any equipment for it. And since it was my only ship i could't sell it ^^

 

[Perkel]

could't open site in 15 minutes now. It's probably 50 minutes till end

 

[Des0lar]

I need to know:

At the Scout 30$ tier, it says access to beta-test, while every other tier has access to alpha and beta? Is it just a typo?

 

[zam]

$6.1 million

 

[Xavien]

now at 6.1 Million, could it get 6.5?

 

[Babalu.]

I need to know:

yes on kick starter it says they couldn't edit tiers after people already pledged but that tier gets alpha and beta

 

[Mindlog]

I haven't given the game my full attention because I know what's going to happen.

I have my little Aurora, but now I'm tempted to get every ship in these last few minutes :[]

 

[GrizzNKev]

I need to know:

It also includes alpha. They're not allowed to edit reward tier descriptions once that tier has a backer, and they didn't change it quickly enough.

 

[Des0lar]

yes on kick starter it says they couldn't edit tiers but that gets alpha and beta

Thanks for the quick response
Good to know, I was worried there for a second

 

[Zabojnik]

6.1M$ and still going strong. 43mins to go.

 

[Azzurri]

Good Golly Miss Molly.

This game better fucking deliver!

 

[Majukun]

So lets say you don't have ins. You ship goes Kablowey! And lets say you have no money to fix it up. Hows that all work? What happens?

you start with another account?

 

[Sentenza]

$6.1 million

[ColonelSkills]

I just reduced my pledge to $35 after realizing that I spent over 800 USD this year on kickstarter.

Sorry!

This post made me do a summary total on my KS contributions for the year.

I...I should block this site from in my hosts file or something.

Fuck, it'll probably suck having to go back down to an Aurora after flying the higher tier ships, what to do.

 

[Deleted member 80556]

FUCK YEAH! Thanks, internet!

Love when a game like this gets all its stretch goals accomplished.

 

[subversus]

What was the final stretch goal?

 

[maquiladora]

What was the final stretch goal?

Then at six million (can you do it?!) we will launch with 100 systems, a full orchestral score and will make the first Squadron 42 mission disk, Behind Enemy Lines, available for free for all backers upon release (a 16-mission campaign in the style of The Secret Missions.)
