I'm honestly surprised there's not a thread here for it... I'll start it.

I intend to get a Hornet F7C and probably a Freelancer.

Why you should buy it when it comes out or even pledge:
It is a PC exclusive title, a space sim built by what can be considered the godfather of space sims (Chris Roberts created Freelancer, Wing Commander, and more), it looks awesome. You can play it cooperatively if you want (meaning if you guys wish to join me on my ship, you can! Be my gunners and shit... fly my Merlin in short range combat).
Watch the crowd funding video here:

The development team is being VERY open about development, they are releasing what is known as the hangar module later today, this is NOT a playable game, it is nothing more than, well, what it says, the section of the game that handles the hangar, where you get to your ship, view it, upgrade it, buy things, remove things, walk around (and I think in) it, etc. They will, as time goes on, expand the modules until it reaches full game state. Seeing as this game has been nearly 100% crowdfunded, they want the development to be as transparent as possible, and do weekly updates (and have for some time now).
And before you ask me how much I've spent on helping to support this game... well... a lot... I don't know. But I know I'll be spending more. I REALLY want to see this happen.

What Ships I have:
- RSI Constellation
- Comparatively to star wars, it's basically like a Millennium Falcon, large cargo capacity, 360 degree rotational gun pod on bottom with the ability to add one on top, each gun pod can have a gunner, and comes with a P-52 Merlin (short range 1 man fighter), and has room for a four person crew, I believe including the pilot.
- Drake Interplanetary Cutlass
- Smaller than the constellation and has maximum crew capacity of 2
- Origin Jumpworks 350R
- Basically an upgraded 300i, 1 man
- RSI Aurora ES
- 1 man fighter, a pretty simple standard for most
