So, I've been following this for quite a while, and you may remember me playing "Out of fuel Spaceship Simulator" after Movie Nights and such. Well, with the release of Arena Commander (the first actual "game" part), I feel confident about starting a thread about it. Basically, it's a PC Space Sim made by Chris Roberts (Wing Commander) and Cloud Imperium Games. Oh, and right now it's raised over 44 MILLION dollars in crowd funding. I'd be pretty inadequate in explaining it, so here's a video.

I'ts built in a modified version of the Cryengine 3, and looks gorgeous. I've literally spent hours just walking around and looking at ships. And now, you can fly the ships in Arena Commander, aka the Dogfighting Module. The devs are very involved with the community as well.
As for me, well, I'm the proud owner of this beauty:
Built for exploration as well as battle, houses a secondary fighter as well as a crew of 3 ( ) She needs a name as well.
Oh, and we have a orginization: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/orgs/SPUF
So yeah, anyone heard of this/interested in it/ owns a ship?
