We Funded Cloud Imperium Games — Let’s Work Together to Make Star Citizen Stable
This project exists because of all of us
Star Citizen is being built with the support of its players.
We’ve backed it, upgraded ships, subscribed, and continued investing because we believe in what it can become.

We’re not just players—we’re part of what keeps this universe alive.

And that’s why this matters.

 
What we’re experiencing
There’s a pattern the community continues to run into:

Features launch working… then fall into a broken state for multiple patches.

Missions and contracts stop functioning reliably
Core loops like cargo, mining, and FPS degrade or break
Player-driven and sandbox gameplay becomes difficult or impossible to sustain
Progression systems become inconsistent
And in some cases:

Narcotics missions have not functioned properly since the 4.0 release
These aren’t short-term issues—they often last months, with little visibility on fixes or progress.

 
This is the daily experience
These aren’t edge cases or rare bugs.

This is:

What players log in to do every day
How we earn, progress, and play together
The foundation of the entire experience
When these systems don’t work consistently, the game becomes unreliable to play—no matter how strong the vision is.

 
Community vs reality
Cloud Imperium Games has supported and participated in some large-scale, player-run events—and those moments are appreciated.

But those are not the everyday experience.

They are:

Structured
Supported
Often used to showcase the game at its best
They do not reflect:

The daily grind
The instability players deal with regularly
The systems that break under normal LIVE conditions
The average player isn’t in a curated event—they’re trying to run missions, move cargo, mine, and progress.

That’s where the problems are.

 
The community is already stepping in
Players don’t just raise issues—we actively try to solve them.

Sharing workarounds to keep gameplay functional
Creating guides to navigate broken systems
Supporting each other through instability
In some cases, the community builds real solutions.

Projects like StarStrings, created by MrKraken, show how players are already improving the experience where systems fall short.

That level of effort shows how much this game means to us.

 
A simple step forward—together
👉 We are asking that developers at Cloud Imperium Games regularly play the LIVE version of the game under normal player conditions.

No developer tools
No shortcuts
Real progression and real risk
Not just during events—but as part of ongoing development.

 
Why this matters
Because when developers experience the game the same way players do:

Persistent issues become impossible to overlook
Broken gameplay loops are felt immediately
Stability becomes a shared priority
And it creates an opportunity for something better:

Collaboration.

Players are ready to:

Share what’s consistently breaking
Offer workarounds and real-world insight
Help highlight what actually needs attention
 
This is a player-driven need
We’re not asking from the outside.

We’re already here—playing, adapting, and supporting this project every day.

We’ve invested in this vision.
We continue to invest in it.

Now we need the experience to be stable enough to live in.

 
Sign if you believe developers and players working together in the LIVE environment will create a stronger, more reliable Star Citizen.
 
Closing statement:
“We’ve funded the universe. We’re living in it every day. Join us in the LIVE experience—and let’s make it work.”
