Ever since the Kickstarter campaign back in 2012, Star Citizen has enjoyed success with the players "pledging" more money over the years. The success escalated out of proportion, with the game now offering a ship fleet for $27.000.

It turns out that the German powerhouse Crytek intends to take the Star Citizen developer Cloud Imperium Games to court over what Crytek claims to be CIG’s breach of an earlier contract between the two. Apparently, while procuring CryEngine, CIG got some hefty concessions after throwing out some big promises, which they not only failed to deliver - they ended up switching to another engine altogether. Lousy move on a galactic scale, or a desperate Crytek?

Star Citizen has so much hope riding on it, can it possibly meet such expectations?

Who is publishing what and why? Profits go where? Separate deal with investor and publishers? How does all that affect the final product backers get? Who is harversting what for which silo from what field at what time and with what yields? How about some anwsers? And why do I have to ask these questions in the first place?
