If you do that, don't you lose your original backer package? Or do you have another one?
Yeah that's what I want to know, I don't want to liquidate the Aurora in my original scout package and lose all my backer privileges, but I want to upgrade to the Aurora LN.

Impact of the Star Citizen anniversary event and associated sales:
The Gladiator and Retaliator sales have ended.
The Aurora LN will be available all week.
The Avenger package is here to stay (I think).
The Star Citizen Polo Shirts will be available for pre-order until October 21st at which point they will stop taking orders and manufacture and ship them.

There's less than 10,000 alpha slots left now. If you're on the fence, you might want to make a decision soon as you'll likely see the remaining slots disappear fast
During the period that the Gladiator and Retaliator were on sale, the crowdfunding campaign raised $1.51 million. The Avenger package, Aurora LN, and polo shirts are still for sale.
Despite only hitting $22 million less than 3 days ago, the campaign is already 71% of the way to hitting $23 million.
Hornet variants are set to be released Friday along with the Hornet commercial and brochure.

Urrrrgh RSI is the worst. Welp guess I'll be getting a Hornet this Friday.
Also, I'm unable to launder past Nov 26, and alpha slots are going fast. Anyone who needs a ship laundered (for free) let me know, I have five references on CP alone now if you question my moral character or something.
Anytime, I know there are jerks on the RSI forums charging people some pretty terrible prices to launder non-limited ships, so it feels like a bit of karma balance.
This version of the commercial was shown on the livestream. I think all that video is, is the footage from the livestream cut down to just the hornet commercial.
That version of it is not final. The final version will be shown on Friday.

These are my predictions so take them with a grain of salt. However, it appears as though Star Citizen will hit $23 million before Wingman's Hangar episode 42 and the Hornet event on Friday. Probably tomorrow evening. I would imagine the Hornet brochure/commercial/sale will probably generate another million or so, so we'll probably see Star Citizen hit $24 million next week some time. Probably $30 million by the end of the year, although there is a lot of uncertainty as to what exactly will happen when there are no more alpha slots. Alpha slots will probably run out around the end of the month.

Hate to play devil's advocate here but I'm surprised how well their marketing is working? I mean how much have you guys spent on this game already.. truthfully?
Seems like every extra hundred dollars spent gets you the equivalent of a better dexterity point on a twelve-sided die
I think the game is going to be great.. but equally good if you just go with the basic subscription and lie / cheat / steal your way into better ships a la Grand theft auto?
Not to be a dick about it (who am I kidding, I love being a dick), but anyone pledging money just to get a ship that can be had with either 20-50 hours of gameplay or via theft in-game, is an idiot.
Most of us (I hope) are pledging to see an amazing game come to fruition under a fantastic development team, not to get the ships.

Xi’an Scout Unlocked! The Khartu is the light attack craft of the Xi’An military. Contrary to Human ship design, the Khartu doesn’t have a traditional main thruster, instead featuring an array of maneuvering thrusters on articulated rigs. This design allows for incredible agility, making them the bane of UEE pilots, who bestowed the nickname ‘Quark’ because when all of the thrusters are firing, the ship looks like a spark flying through space. The Xi’an Aopoa corporation also manufactures an export model, the Khartu-al, for sale to human civilians as a dedicated scout/explorer. The export model features the same Xi’an maneuvering rig, but control surfaces modified for human use and a more limited armament. (Designer: Aopoa)

As a special reward for those who have backed us to this point, you will be receiving a model of the Khartu to display in your hangar. It won’t be ready immediately, as we now have to concept the ship… but as always, we will be keeping you informed about that process!
Enhanced Alpha – We will use additional funding to build a wider alpha test than we had originally intended for the first phase of Star Citizen’s launch. The initial plan was to first launch servers in North America and then expand to areas such as Europe and Australia to decrease latency in these areas, perfecting the game as we improve the experience around the world. This funding will allow us to invest in a wider infrastructure for our early testing, spinning up remote servers earlier. Hitting this goal will also allow us to increase the number of remaining alpha slots. Extra alpha slots not only means more Star Citizens will travel the ‘verse at launch, but that we will receive more feedback and more stress testing. This in turn will allow us to better balance and enhance the Star Citizen experience!
