Just one short month ago, we reported that Chris Roberts, the creative mind behind titles such as Wing Commander, Privateer, and Freelancer, was working on a new game. This past Monday, Roberts dropped in to give us a first-look at Star Citizen, and talk about his return to creating epic space sims.
Since the project is so ambitious, is aimed at high-end PC's, and focuses on a genre that has made bigger publishers traditionally shy in recent years, Roberts is "making a bet that there's a core audience willing to put their money where their mouth is
Roberts is also promising to release mod tools. In addition to being able to run modified versions of the game on their own servers, players will be able to submit ship builds to be considered for inclusion in the official version. The best part? If your ship design is approved by the content team, it'll appear at a few in-game ship vendors, and you'll make some in-game currency whenever another player purchases one
