Microtransactions implemented within the Star Citizen game

Cloud Imperium Games implements microtransactions within the Star Citizen game, allowing you to buy plots on planets, moons and asteroids.

The title Star Citizen is one of the most popular on the market and has been in development for years, so much so that this game is in an Alpha 3.0 phase and the improvements and extensions to the game do not end, they are always improving the game to improve the experience. The game developers are Cloud Imperium Games, but to ensure the improvement and operability of the game, micropayments have been added within the game, despite the fact that the game is usually based on financing through crowdfunding, one of the bases of its success. .

Star Citizen is one of the most ambitious games of recent years and not only that, the company itself has set an extremely high bar with the game, working intensively on the development of the game, with practically constant extensions and improvements. They seek with microtransactions an improvement in development and implement new functions within the game itself, which will also serve to maintain the servers.

This system is based on the purchase of land licenses on different planets, moons and even asteroids that are controlled by the United Empire of Earth. There are two types of parcels, one four square kilometers for $ 50 and another eight square kilometers for $ 100. They can be purchased for in-game money, too, and will not have any advantage when the game is fully released.

The data of the game is impressive and it is that although it is still in development, it has raised more than 165 million dollars, counting the purchase of ships, plot points and others. Cloud Imperium has guaranteed that all the money used will be used to finance the development of this project, since this financing system has raised quite a controversy, because they have raised millions and it is questioned if they really need more money for a project that apparently never ends. .

  1. Find out well before making these items, the sale of plots is only to finance the development, when it is finished it will be all accessible within the game. Because of these lies, people live facing each other on the internet.
