In a surprise move that actually didn't surprise anyone. Chris Roberts the heart and soul and leader of the company everyone wants to buy digital art from has written an edict upon tablets of stone that his game will have the most cutting edge features for PC gamers. PC Gamers DEMAND the very best game possible and he is dedicated to delivering that experience. They were about ready to begin the Beta process when it was decided that the engine needed to support Ray Tracing. Such dynamic lighting would only make everything better.
Mr Roberts did note that thanks to the texture reset they did before they would only have to revisit the settings on all art objects in the game for comparatively minor tweaks so they would all have appropriate reflections.
He has promised that taking off and seeing your own reflection in the canopy of your cockpit will be the next best thing.
So as not to dilute the image of his game with the comparatively lackluster non Ray Trace ready version. The current alpha version will be closed. Anyone with a client supporting the current alpha version will find that their access is closed.
On further note Mr Roberts did further note that the game will relaunch into alpha when it is ready for untainted eyes. As such this is considered a complete relaunch. While thankful for those that had permanent and purchased access to previous alpha revisions only those members with LTI backed ships and or those with existing monthly support subscriptions will be able to participate in future alpha revisions. He did note that he hopes they have cards capable of Ray Tracing because cards without that will not be able to even play the game. It is an integral and important part of his vision of the future of computer gaming, and that Cloud Imperium Games with Roberts Space industries and Star Citizen will lead the way into the brave new world of computer gaming!
Also a new air-frame has been designed, it is the transforming Alzeta class Maid mode... for only 1200 dollars you will be able to switch from suck to blow.
