The monumentally crowdfunded and mega-budget project Star Citizen is once again holding a free flight event where people can try out the space sim for the grand price of nothing for a week. Until July 19, you can fly as much as you want and try out one of 10 different spaceships in developer Cloud Imperium's sandbox.
This particular free week is an in-game event called the Foundation Festival, a sort of celebration of civic pride for the stellar citizenry. Part of this is an improved experience for new players along with a new guide system that connects veteran players with new ones. Those who participate in the guided sessions during the festival will gain bonuses of armor and weapons.
If you're now wondering whether Star Citizen will actually run on your machine, let me tell you the technical requirements: But remember that these are more guidelines than actual rules.It may say you'll only need 16GB of RAM, but I doubt you'll have fun with less than 32GB.
Star Citizen is finally pushing to reach the 1.0 finish line, saying Director Chris Roberts launched Pyro earlier this year, the outlaw and smuggler star system that will focus on features like industrial gameplay, vehicular combat, cargo transport, and medical missions alongside the challenging missions of Master Mode.
