The Next Great Starship Episode 1.3

For people who love science fiction space games, here is the ultimate experience:

If you are not aware of the massive space SIM MMO game being built by Cloud Imperium called "Star Citizen”, you need to check it out. The entire game is being built in real time but the process is wide open to its fan base. You join the community and interact with it. As a member, you get tons of updates, access to forums, magazines and can actively offer suggestions to the "Star Citizen" creators which they consider. More than anything, they are creating the most high rezz game ever created using Crytek CryENGINE (for you geeks out there - www.cryengine.com). In short, you can become a sort of an active collaborator with others crowdsourcing the creation of the game. You get to see what it is like to build a huge, multi-year game which will eventually have millions of players. 

Unlike traditional game companies which spent millions of dollars behind closed doors for years and then "launch" or "drop" a game after 3 years of work, "Star Citizen's" is a "build-as-you-go" experience... sort of like a behind-the-scenes reality show about making one of the world's biggest digital games on the scale of "World of Warcraft.".

The following, (just one example, is a competition they ran for spaceship and weapons designs judged (ala "Top Chef") by a panel of folks, including the legendary Chris Roberts, the creator and creative director behind the hole game. The design teams are from around the world and anyone can get started in the contest by simply downloading a free copy of Crytek’s CryENGINE and start creating along with the Cloud Imperium team. 

No other video game, this large, has ever been created this way.

The Next Great Starship, the modding competition that gives fans a chance to create a space ship for Chris Roberts' upcoming epic space sim game, Star Citize...
