Yes, it happened - Chris Roberts, the man behind the unique gaming phenomenon called Star Citizen, has mentioned version 1.0 in his latest 'Letter from the Chairman' blog post. He did so multiple times, in fact, concluding with the auspicious words that Star Citizen's commercial launch 'twinkles on the horizon'. According to Roberts, this will be when the game is polished enough and includes enough content that it can no longer be considered in Alpha or early access. Cloud Imperium Games reportedly spent a lot of time recently to evaluate how to get to 1.0. The whole process is supposedly […]

Star Citizen Team Introduces FPS Combat Improvements Coming in Alpha 3.23
