Fun fact, someone got a platinum ticket by being nice to a dev they thought was a new guy and spending a couple of hours helping them. They then went to Orison where it was revealed he had a platinum ticket in his bag, and it was even upgraded to a special camo
Wish I was a multimillionare to dump untold fcukin shekels into this amazing game. See greatness takes fcuking time. LOTS of time & fcukin money obviously lol. But yeah look what can be acomplished with a lot of hard coding. Incredible!!
if you get a plat ticket youre marked for other players.. so basically even if you get to armistice theres a high chance youll just get pad rammed and griefed
Some of yall are a bit misinformed. If you spend 10k on SC you get this ship for free and used to be the only way to get it. Now you can buy it for $250 if you do an in game event which is super easy. Alternatively if you dont want to spend anything you can wait until the single player releases and youll get one when you complete it. Its still shitty that its $250 for a ship but just clarifying everything
There's a lot of confusion about buying ships in SC. It's more about supporting the game than it is about getting the ship. If you want the ship, just buy it in game later. If you want to support the development, buy the ship with real money.
@@robbhays8077Exactly, I will say videos like this even though don't have bad intentions people just read titles and space out for the whole video or something 😂 The amount of people with uneducated opinions and blind hate is ridiculous 😂
This is the only clarifying we need! NO GAME ASSET is worth even 25 bucks! Especially after they’ve raised what 500 million for the game! Amazing how people still support this scam
I was watching XenoThreat's stream for the launch of the event. He and CaptainBerks were trying to get the plat ticket of a dev and that dev had a handful of player protectors. Not sure if they were devs on alt accounts, or hired guards. It was interesting to see though.
Ship handles super well and fights super well, although most do when they get new ships out the door... best thing by far is the looks, they'll not change and they're in my opinion some of the best in the game.

Clarification on ways to get the F8C Lighting (thanks jason for the extra info) - Spend $10000 in the RSI store (since you can't spend the money "in the game") and get, as a reward, the F8C with the new Shockwave paint. - Spend $15000 in the RSI store and get, as a reward, the F8C Executive which has the black and gold paint. - Find a gold ticket for the next 8 (at this point) days, return to a rental kiosk, and rent the ship for 24 hours. You'll receive email that will take you to a specific page on the RSI store that lets you purchase an F8C with no skin for $260 WB, or $300 in credits. - Take the "Running the Gauntlet" priority mission for the next 8 days, if it appears, and chase down a CIG developer who has a platinum ticket. Kill him, take the ticket, and avoid other players until you can turn it in at a ship purchasing store (Crusader, Hurston, or ArcCorp). This gets you a free F8C with a special skin. - Once SQ42 releases, complete the game, and receive a badge or ticket or something that signifies you can purchase the ship IN GAME. This last bullet is still not settled or completely clarified by CIG. Is it just completing the game? Is it completing the game on a certain difficulty? We don't know the specifics on this one yet, because CIG probably doesn't, either.
250$ for a single vehicle in a game thats not even released is ridiculous anyways. How does someone react to this news, that has spent 10000$ in order to have the plane? ^^ better spent 5000$ on top next time so you receive a different skin. Why would anyone think this is still going to be released as a regular massive multiplayer online game with any kind of PROGRESSION system is beyond me xD absolutely ludacris and next to impossible to balance this out if there is people buying the highest level content in a multiplayer game even before release, what do those guys expect the gameplay to be IF a game like this releases at one point? They are going to spawn in their giant level 9001 space carrier and relaxing without doing anything as they have bought the endgame content without actually playing one single bit? It makes zero sense. This would be just the worst game 🤣🤣🤣🤣 pure obvious milking the cash cow, and its incredible that it works so well

By your logic a person playing for money in the casino, that has invested and lost 5000$ so far, does still invest more money and keeps playing and spending more money to do so because the playing is super fun and not because so much money was already invested so its impossible to stop now as the money would eventually count as "lost" if they did stop playing. Pretty basic psychology thats super effective.
Glad I own one, haven't played in a while though. Love this event and hope they do this for random ships moving forward just to keep the community engaged and reward players who are actively playing
After spending 10,000 dollars in game you get this ship as a reward, the wing commander concierge level. However I do see how his title can be misconstrued considering if you had found a golden ticket during this event you could’ve bought it for $300 or less.
@@thatgregguytrue... but thats the problem with the players. The devs EXPLICITY say you are not buying the ships. You are donating money for development and get a ship in return. But i wonder how many of you remember that? Beceause you can enter the game's "alpha" with just a starter pack. The lowest of wich is 45$. Everything else you "buy" will be on you. And most ships work on limited sales anyway. It is true that once the game comes out. Everyone who pledged for a ship with real money will get benefits once the game is released. Like reduced spawn times. The ability to always get that ship back even when destroyed (will be the stock ship without all the upgrades you put on it before it blew up).
They're running the Gold Ticket event again. You can loot it off of any enemy NPC bodies and loot crates found in outposts or bunkers. It gets you the free 24h Rental of the F8C and allows you to buy it off of the Pledge store for $260 Warbond/$300 Standard. Neither version comes with the LTI or any extended insurance, which seems fair considering they gave IAE purchasers 120 Months and the Warbond version from the initial event was LTI. Still kind of feels like Concierge status members are getting shafted because they have to spend a collective amount of $10k to get the ship as a reward with LTI.
CIG has said a few times that concierge rewards will be updated/changed in the future. I wouldn't sweat it too much. Additionally, I don't think most wing commander or praetorians spent that much to get THAT ship. It's a fun reward. Plus we get unique paints for them :)
a lil bit clickbait (for those wondering while its quite expensive its only about $260, the $10k thing comes from the fact you get it as a bonus if you have whaled $10k out already as it was promised many years ago for them)
I feel that it would have been more accurate to have called it a $160/300 dollar ship (now we have a price) with a $10,000 skin. Especially considering that we where always going to be able to buy it at some point, that point originally being after SQ42 released.
Only can be redeemed during the event (10 days including today) but after redeeming, the purchase option is available in the pledge store until November 7th
This title is probably the kind of thing that makes people hesitant to try out the game btw, just saying O.o Also, you forgot to add to your comment that at the end of the sq42 campaign, you'll get the F8C for free
If you wanna see it, you need a time machine cuz its been almost 10 years and this project is still in alpha. It's selling $400 ships left and right though
People with this "10,000 dollar space ship" nonsense need to stop, they know it is a lie but keep repeating it. the ship will be free when SQ42 is fully released and you beat the game, right now it is a free gift for those that already spent 10k. No one is going to go out and spend 10k for this ship. Especially when basically everyone that plays the game will have it, it will not be special at all.
I wouldn't even call it a gift for the $10k+ backers. All they're really getting is early access to it and a free skin for it, which is hardly anything and is unquestionably not worth $10k+.
Yeah, its not a 10k ship, its a ship you get if you spent 10k on other stuff. Its a tacked on bonus. I have a top hat and monocle because I spent like 1k, is it a 1k monocle? No... And you're right, most of these people know they're full of shit, they're just trying to spin negative lies about the game because haters gonna hate.
1:04 This is incorrect it is only to be able to rent it not own it. It's the platinum ticket you want. The gold tickets can be found under any rock. You don't have to beat Sq42 you only need to get to a certain stage of the game to be eligible for the ship and of course all the whales are mad because the ship was never meant to be obtainable any other way.
Just got 1v3'd by a F8C (looking at you moon_g****) My group were in: Constellation, Hercules and Corsair (Corsair came late to the party though) F8C was simply too fast, turned too quick, and dealt too much damage when in range. Boosted away from almost every missile barrage and had a field day with us.
So now you got a 10k and 15k dollar skin. Nice. Plus I am sure once they get done selling a bunch they will just nerf it to death anyway. Still nice to have though. I like it for now.
What I don’t understand is how that ship only uses 1 power plant to power all those guns lol 😂 I mean the ion has 3 power plants to power that 1 size 7 cannon
It's only "rare" because the tickets are found on CIG devs, but those CIG devs have "CIG" in their names. You can easily tell when they're on your server, and the platinum ticket prompts a server wide emergency contract that you can accept that shows you where that developer is. It's very easy to find them. It's not easy to get it from them.
I have the Exec version. Its good that people can buy it now. But i want to say the people that spent all that money to get it. Should get the F8A instead
I'd be OK with the F8A, but it'll never happen. I've joked with one of the CIG ship designers that I want the Squadron 999 livery for my F8C, and all WCs should get the opportunity to buy that. He laughed at me and told me there's no way in hell that'll ever happen. Too bad. ;-)
i know it is a realy cool ship etc, but wouldnt it be cool if it would have a interior with a bed, if you look at the mustang beta it would be possible
the event its knda cool but i think its a red flag cus maybe they realesing this so the playerbase dont get mad with the news for sq42. hopefully im wrong lol
Yeah let's just ignore the fact that a virtual object costs more than the PC required to consume it. $10 000 can buy three high end gaming PCs, but to each his own I guess..
the ship does not cost 10k, its a clickbait title. Sure, whales get it for free as a reward but for one its 260 bucks if someone wants to buy it or you get it for free as a reward through squadron 42 by just playing the game.
Wait a min so once SQ42 comes out not only do I have to buy it. But once I complete it I also have to buy the reward I get for completing it? So once the game comes out of beta I’ll still have to buy the ships?
It's a shame the platinum tickets will likely only be on devs who go to servers with a lot of either streaming traffic or streaming players to try and create some free advertisement, the rich get richer and all that
The problem with the F8A and C is the same problem with all the other fighters in the game - an anvil sweat is gonna slot in on your six and stay there till you die
It's a shame what is happening in gaming. Something that would be a normal thing to have and play with in previous decades, now cost 10 - 15 k.I think people approving this kind of behavior is their choice, so yeah. Have fun
There is come information that need to be cleared up here. Many Star Citizen backers having been pledging off and on since the first days of the kickstarter. While others like me started back in 2014 and others even later. Also many of us never put $10,000 all at once into the game. The amount of money just built up overtime since it is all being recorded on our account. Some of us were even surprised that overtime we put in as much as to $10,000 to $15,000 in the game which isn't surprising. Since the average hardcore gamer spends as much as $1,000 or more per year in games in general. So with this information it make perfect sense why many Star Citizen backers have pledged as much as $10,000 or more into the game. I even know that some original backers put in so much more it will shock you especially since some of them are millionaires and really nice people too.
@@tomsmarkovs1946 Stop downplaying it. People went wild when d4 sold an early release copy of A GAME for $100. This project is selling literal thousands of dollars worth of JPEG images. The $300 or $260 for warbond for a digital ship is still out of hand. Don't let Stockholm syndrome take you in buddy.
thats not the point the point is just a donation to fund the game by someone whos rich enough to do so. That electronic asset is free like the cars you can buy in GTA Online just by playing a bit
PVP was never intended to be fair in this game, and it never can be. If you show up in this ship, but I show up with 3 of my buddies in Auroras, we're still probably going to shred you. This ship can give you and edge just like any ship can, but nothing is guaranteed, even in a 1v1 scenario.
$10,000..... It just goes to show how badly mismanaged the companies money is. EDIT: In my opinion, they have gotten over $250 million. but they charge such an absurd amount for a ship??
It's a secondary reward and was known to be for that level of concierge for a long time but people pledge that much over a period of YEARS. I've pledged $3000 since starting in 2016. People spend way more in way worse. peoples game subs every month can cost more.
How is a 10k USD in-game item something to be excited about?! A game with no official release and a half billion dollar budget that's been crowd funded

I'd be OK with the F8A, but it'll never happen. I've joked with one of the CIG ship designers that I want the Squadron 999 livery for my F8C, and all WCs should get the opportunity to buy that. He laughed at me and told me there's no way in hell that'll ever happen. Too bad. ;-)
i know it is a realy cool ship etc, but wouldnt it be cool if it would have a interior with a bed, if you look at the mustang beta it would be possible
the event its knda cool but i think its a red flag cus maybe they realesing this so the playerbase dont get mad with the news for sq42. hopefully im wrong lol
Yee
Yeah let's just ignore the fact that a virtual object costs more than the PC required to consume it. $10 000 can buy three high end gaming PCs, but to each his own I guess..
the ship does not cost 10k, its a clickbait title. Sure, whales get it for free as a reward but for one its 260 bucks if someone wants to buy it or you get it for free as a reward through squadron 42 by just playing the game.
Do we know which loot boxes the gold ticket can be found in?
Found in all loot boxes, Red and small grey ones
Wait a min so once SQ42 comes out not only do I have to buy it. But once I complete it I also have to buy the reward I get for completing it? So once the game comes out of beta I’ll still have to buy the ships?
Buy ingame, for ingame credits. Not real money.
GTA Online has a bunch of cars you can buy with ingame money
Whats the song used in the end of this video?
I found gold ticket today, amazing ship
Where did you find the gold ticket?
Just log out if you get a platinum ticket.
Look for the Oompa Loompas, and we all know where they are.👍
buy and RENT with a golden ticket ...
its a 300$ ship now!
and now it just gets sold for 400 :D
13h on one shard, 4h on another in one day.... have yet to see a dev but atleast got 11 Gold Tickets ig
It's a shame the platinum tickets will likely only be on devs who go to servers with a lot of either streaming traffic or streaming players to try and create some free advertisement, the rich get richer and all that
So I’m confused you gotta spend a total of $10,000 usd overtime to get this? Or 10000 ingame currency lol?
10,000$ USD!! :D
😂@@mjlee8013
Damn! Jason got some bank.
On the list of verrible investments. That one score pretty high on the list.
This game will never officially release. Will go down as one of the greatest gaming scams of all time.
I think I will stick to the inferno
A ship costing $10k that was first announced in 2018 and is only available now? That's Star Citizen for ya
The problem with the F8A and C is the same problem with all the other fighters in the game - an anvil sweat is gonna slot in on your six and stay there till you die
The F8 holds up really well against the arrow actually
Man the title is click bait
It's a shame what is happening in gaming. Something that would be a normal thing to have and play with in previous decades, now cost 10 - 15 k.I think people approving this kind of behavior is their choice, so yeah. Have fun
sq42 in the near-ish future 🤣 near-ish being another 5 years or... more .
but a really nice event nevertheless.
Bruh thats mt college tution
Love the ship, nerds bk off with the nerf shit
just get the golden ticket and get one for $260
"my friend jason did" wtf?!
There is come information that need to be cleared up here. Many Star Citizen backers having been pledging off and on since the first days of the kickstarter. While others like me started back in 2014 and others even later. Also many of us never put $10,000 all at once into the game. The amount of money just built up overtime since it is all being recorded on our account. Some of us were even surprised that overtime we put in as much as to $10,000 to $15,000 in the game which isn't surprising. Since the average hardcore gamer spends as much as $1,000 or more per year in games in general. So with this information it make perfect sense why many Star Citizen backers have pledged as much as $10,000 or more into the game. I even know that some original backers put in so much more it will shock you especially since some of them are millionaires and really nice people too.
This feels only slightly mote valuable than a rude ape NFT
Another great example of how messed up our world is…
So much wrong info in one vid lol
lol level turn off that camera shake ahah
😂😂😂Damn milking nerds never felt this good
Yes, I confess that I own one of those F8C Lightning Executive Editions :D
290$ exactly lol
10k for an electronic asset is so sad that you are better off buying some papers from the company -if available- in the first place.
it's 250$. . still a lot, but the 10k price is a bit of a click bait. You get the ship if you spent 10k on the game.
@@tomsmarkovs1946 Stop downplaying it. People went wild when d4 sold an early release copy of A GAME for $100. This project is selling literal thousands of dollars worth of JPEG images. The $300 or $260 for warbond for a digital ship is still out of hand. Don't let Stockholm syndrome take you in buddy.
thats not the point the point is just a donation to fund the game by someone whos rich enough to do so. That electronic asset is free like the cars you can buy in GTA Online just by playing a bit
10k for pixels
It will be a miracle if they actually show/add something "finished", not just v1.0 for future revision, like all the ships in the game atm.
i got mine easily y getting gold ticket.. took me 10 minutes..
We all can just hope at this point that the thing is not good in pvp or else all normal people just get screwed over.
PVP was never intended to be fair in this game, and it never can be. If you show up in this ship, but I show up with 3 of my buddies in Auroras, we're still probably going to shred you. This ship can give you and edge just like any ship can, but nothing is guaranteed, even in a 1v1 scenario.
Care Bear alert! Ahhh...so cute.
It's the new meta... For a month or so until it gets nerfed.
$10,000..... It just goes to show how badly mismanaged the companies money is.
EDIT: In my opinion, they have gotten over $250 million. but they charge such an absurd amount for a ship??
It's a secondary reward and was known to be for that level of concierge for a long time but people pledge that much over a period of YEARS. I've pledged $3000 since starting in 2016. People spend way more in way worse. peoples game subs every month can cost more.
It's 280 dollars for the ship
It's not 10000 dollars but 280. But those who spent 10000 on the games will be gifted it
Not if your an arabian prince I think you'll find .
Most people i know bought a $45 dollar starter pack. Spending hundreds or thousands is Optional.
Wait 10k in real life?
More like 250 usd
I found 3 gold cards
How is a 10k USD in-game item something to be excited about?! A game with no official release and a half billion dollar budget that's been crowd funded

This comment concisely articulates the ignorance of those that make this comment.
@@PerfectCode Whoa yet another RSI defender, let's goooo
That’s always the case. But one is real. The other is inside a computer.
If you find a gold ticket (Which are in nearly every box) you can purchase the lightning without spending $10,000 just $260. So no reward for spending money 😂
I just can't with this game. 10k for some Jpegs? lolololol
It’s not 10k. Level cap is clickbaiting
@@JonAtomic 🙄
No it became 10k for an f8 skin😂
biggest scam in gaming history :Scam citizen- Foreveralpha bug edition.
Nice clickbait title. Really good for the ganes reputation also. But hey, as long as you get your clicks and views. 👍
Reported for clickbait title
Say what???
I'm not spending anymore money untill theres more content and a real MMO without all the wipes.
Chances are you'll be waiting until after Server Meshing and the Replication Layer are entirely implemented then. Find a new hobby.
Crazy you threw your own money into the black hole sized money pit that is star citizen
so you should just wait until full release then as there will be a wipe right b4 release. 🤷🏾♂
