Star Citizen
Anybody else watching this development?
Chris Roberts of Freelancer and Wing Commander fame is building the next gen space sim for the PC. He decided to forgo a publisher, and is crowd funding the game. Money pledged so far exceeds $24 million. It will have a single player campaign and basically what amounts to an MMO-like online experience. And it looks very pretty so far. It gives good space porn, and the feature list sounds pretty incredible. Check it out if you haven't seen anything about it. https://robertsspaceindustries.com/about-the-game |

I have been watching it. seems massive. ALMOST bought in, but haven't pulled the trigger.
I am not sure I want to interact via the web and play the game separately, which seems to be what they are going for. |

It looks really cool, but it's hard to say at this point.

There will be a complete single player campaign called Squadron 42. And your friends can join you in that. I think this may be where you are getting the wrong impression. There will be online multiplayer. Here's some info on the instancing for the multiplayer: http://starcitizen.wikia.com/wiki/Instancing |

So... I'm about to pull the trigger on this. Anyone else playing?

I pledged quite a while back and plan on playing more when they get further along. Right now it's just a dogfighting module, so I haven't played all that much.
