Whether you’re a fresh recruit or a long-term lurker finally ready to pull the trigger — welcome to the ‘Verse. Star Citizen is a persistent sandbox space MMO by Cloud Imperium Games. Players fly hundreds of ships, trade cargo, mine ore, salvage wrecks, and fight across two star systems: Stanton and Pyro. Currently in Alpha 4.8 — actively playable with regular updates.
Squadron 42 is the standalone single-player campaign — in development, not yet released. Star Citizen is not on Steam, PS5, or any console. Windows PC only, downloaded through the RSI Launcher at robertsspaceindustries.com.
ALPHA REALITIES & WIPES
PROGRESSION WIPES: We are in an Alpha state. Your most valuable asset isn’t your aUEC balance — it’s your in-game experience. Treat each patch like a new season: what you own might disappear, but what you know makes you a deadlier pilot.
BUGS ARE STANDARD: Expect desync, server crashes, occasional broken mechanics, and UI glitches. The workarounds below help you navigate the most common issues.
HARDWARE MANDATE // MINIMUM SPEC CLEARANCEWINDOWS ONLY
| OS | Windows 10 (Latest Service Pack) — 64-bit required |
| CPU | Intel i7 (Haswell+) or AMD Excavator+ Must support AVX, AVX2, and FMA3 instruction sets. |
| GPU | 4 GB VRAM minimum — DirectX 11.1 + Vulkan 1.2 nVidia GTX 1060+ | AMD RX 5700 / Vega 56+ | Intel A380+ |
| RAM | 16 GB minimum 32 GB strongly recommended for 4.8 with Engineering and crafting systems active. |
| STORAGE | 150+ GB SSD — MANDATORY HDD installation causes game-breaking stuttering, failed asset loads, and severe frame drops. NVMe SSD is ideal. |
KNOWN ALPHA ISSUES & WORKAROUNDS
Quantum Drive Won’t JumpMove cursor off target and back. Hold B to restart. Fly away from large objects before re-routing.
Elevator Not WorkingWait for the door to fully open, let it close, and reopen before boarding. Try a different elevator if one looks wrong.
Can’t Drink / Right-Click BrokenDrop the drink to ground via inventory, pick up by holding F. Select “Drink” with helmet removed.
Ship Drifting AwayPress I to power off engines when you leave. Close all ramps and doors.
Suffocating / O₂ LossKeep helmet on at all times outside eating. Press Alt+H to toggle. Check Power MFD for life support status.
