Star Citizen players are spending $5,000 on the Anvil Odin, a 762-meter battle cruiser that hasnโt been added to the game yet.
The ship is still in development, but players are already spending like 4 full salaries on a simple ship, they must be rich.
Star Citizen has always had expensive ships, but spending $5k on a ship that doesnโt yet exist in-game is insane.
This explains why the gameโs crowdfunding campaign recently passed $1 billion, making it one of the most successful crowdfunded projects ever.

Party Animals simply should have shown some sort of understanding of the gaming community by cancelling the Gen AI contest themselves, but instead they tried to see if they could come back with it with a community poll. They can't.
Party Animals making a Gen AI contest reminds me how much some people don't get the problem. Some say it's needless crying and others say embrace the future. AI CAN be a helpful tool one day, but not currently with how it hurts artists, watershort communities and the environment
@ChloeSauras@SeaOfThieves I usually rock this sword, and I think it still looks the best, but with how close I cut getting the new doubloon sword I'm currently getting some milage out of that one ๐
To add to this really good list, is there going to be more communication from Twitch for streamers who report their channel is viewbotted?
I'm the past I was viewbotted for several weeks and immediately sent in a ticket to Twitch but heard nothing back from them.
I do wonder about a few things here.
1. Are you using AI moderation to police this?
2. If my CCV playing stellaris is 1200, then the next day I play a popular game im known for like sea of thieves and my CCV jumps up to 2200, will the system know that this is normal jump or think im botting 1k?
3. How is raiding handled? If im 1200 CCV and I get raided by a 10000 streamer, will the system know its a raid and not bots?
4. If you were botting for the last 5 years, does that mean this system won't effect them because their "historical" data is botted data?
A note on our work to combat viewbotting, from CEO Dan Clancy:
Thereโs been a lot of discussion recently about viewbotting on Twitch, and I wanted to share an update on our enforcement efforts.
Viewbotting is bad for our business. We don't benefit from it, and we believe it harms the creator ecosystem overall. However, effectively combatting viewbotting is challenging. As we deploy updates to our real-time detection algorithms, viewbotting companies quickly respond with updates to avoid detection. Also, our detection systems must be precise to ensure that legitimate viewers are appropriately counted.
Today, weโre introducing a new enforcement type that we plan to roll out over the next few weeks. For channels identified as persistently viewbotting, we will apply a cap to the streamerโs CCV for a fixed period of time, on all of the Twitch surfaces. The cap will be based upon historical data regarding that creatorโs non-viewbotted traffic. Repeated violations will result in longer penalties. Streamers will be notified when an enforcement is applied, along with the duration of the penalty, and can appeal through the appeals portal.
While streamers will be notified, we will not make a follow-on announcement when we begin issuing these enforcements, and will not publicly share details about when and where these enforcements are applied. Unfortunately, providing details simply makes it easier for companies to work around our interventions.
We believe this approach will help us make meaningful progress against viewbotting. We will continue refining our systems and expand when we apply these enforcements over time.
