Are any members here a backer of Star Citizen (pledged or purchased one of the ship packages)?

*raises hand* 'happy birthday' to it...sort of - got an email talking about such. Though I'd quibble and say it might be the first anniversary of the project's announcement, but the BIRTH hasn't happened yet - when the game is launched and has been around for a year, THEN it'd be its first birthday. But yeah, steadily holding (regularly validated) hope for this project; it should turn out like what Chris originally planned for Freelancer.

I don't know whether to invest in Star Citizen or X2 Rebirth...

I don't know about X2, but Star Citizen seems great so far.
They have the funds ($25 Million so far), the vision of a proven game producer (Chris Roberts), great community relations (dedicated communication staff) and some great in-game early peeks (hanger module and game-rendered trailers).
If you're a fan of Wing Commander and Freelancer, then Star Citizen shouldn't disappoint.
I thought about going large with the Constellation purchase ($250 for the Rear Admiral package), but decided to downsize to the Origin 315p (Explorer package - $75). I think it might be better to start modest and work up with in-game currency or with direct purchase if the game has the legs to keep up my interest.

I've pledged way too much money to that damn project.

Nevermind. X Rebirth exploded in terribleness.

...as usual. I did notice that LTI specials are going to be offered for the 'Star Citizen 1st Anniversary'... ...wish as was sufficiently not poor to be able to get some of the limited offer ships...

I'm a backer, and just in time too. It seems that the alpha slots were sold out shortly after my pledge.
