Unless of course I missed somewhere where they said what the minimum spec requirements is and I have no idea what I'm talking about. But uhhhhh I'm going with the former.

--- Quote from: Star Citizen Kickstarter ---Most current gen “AAA” games have around 10,000 polygons for a character and 30,000 or so for a vehicle. In Star Citizen, the characters are detailed at 100,000 polygons, the fighter at 300,000 and the Space Carrier 7 million! This allows unparalleled detail, making the visuals more immersive than has ever been achieved before.

The way I interpreted it, they're marketing it to people with computers that run on diamond graphics cards and unicorn sperm liquid cooling.

he says BUILT TO SCALE for pcs of TODAY and tomorrow. minimum requires around a gtx 470 ($120 about) and is running in the video using a gtx 670 ($400). assuming the game doesnt come out for 2 years, the prices will probably drop as new cards are released. those arent THAT expensive either, the 470 definitely isnt.
