I'm still waiting for the single-player Wing Commander-alike game that was supposed to be the whole reason to bother buying into this Star Citizen thing in the first place.

It's the reason I insta-backed in October of 2012 but I haven't heard a status update in years.
Did you watch the kickstarter video? It was so clear that they did not have a good plan to achieve their goals, and very obvious Chris was obsessed with extremely minor technical details that didn't matter.

I loved the Wing Commander games, but they had people in charge who could actually direct a project. Chris Roberts can't get out of his own head. The video was a clear indication that he was going to ruin it.

I backed via RSI before the Kickstarter went live.
There will be news about it next month during the annual citizencon. Whether its good news I cannot say though.
