So, if you want to buy the Polaris, say for example, buy one after melting ships. You lose your Star Citizen playing ability. Yeah. I traded in everything to get it. Which I learned was mistake. I cannot play Star Citizen. When you look what it comes with, Star Citizen access is not included.. soo.... RIP
Fun Fact-Buying advise for Polaris
- Thread starter Hero9012
- Start date
If I'm wrong please let me know. I've uninstalled and reinstalled and can't figure anything else out.
That is because it is a Stand-alone Ship. You must have a package to play SC.
Yeah... You'd think for 750 dollars they'd be like of course you can play.

Yeah I don't get why they couldn't include a game package instead of a physical brouchure
P.S. This damn ship has no med bay. 24 crew, a pool table, food dispenser, toilets I think and no Med bay.

You mean a Beer-bay?
Pay special attention to any packages you buy. My initial Aurora had SC, SQ42, the soundtrack, and a star map (digital)
When I upgraded to the Mega Explorers pack there was SC and SQ42, but no soundtrack or map. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but I wanted them so they cost an additional $10 to get both.
With so many meetings and buying it's difficult to keep track of your stuff. I'd recommend an audit every so often, it's what I do. And it let's you see all the pretty $100+ jpegs you've bought!

Ask for a game package in the marketplace! And yes, Polaris is standalone :(
I have an Aurora dual game package before they split them in my buyback.
Read before you act. This will prevent future sad faces.
Well you've spent 750 dollars on basically a bunch of worthless pixels, so I would suggest you spend 40 more dollars on an aurora game package so you can play the actual game.
As a bonus - you will get an aurora which you can use for drunken test squadron sun destruction attempts?

For some odd reason I just couldn't make sense of the future stats and why this thing would be a good choice. I have the carrack and it is about the same size and seems to be able to do more aside from the fighting part which is going to be expensive to say the least. (not talking trash about it) I just don't see how this thing works unless you are in a big group of people since going out deep in space with only 1 fighter seems like a bad idea. Now if it had 2 or 2.5 ships in the bay then maybe the story gets better.
Pffff, I've made the same mistake one day. So what, no big deal. Buy a starter package on the grey market or one regular via RSI. Lessons learned - next time you probably are able to warn some newbies to prevent them from doing such mistake.
The Polaris is a standalone ship and they awarded it on the buy. If you whant the game you need to have a game package. Not because the ship is 750$ means that it comes with a game package.
This is basic Star Citizen thins guys, kmon........

I'd wager that's because med bays are typically on dedicated platforms (endeavor, cutlass red), ships that spend a lot of time on the ground (Carrack), or true-blue capital ships with large enough crews to warrant it.
Yes, the polaris is a cap ship, but at 24 crew, it's not huge. Furthermore, we don't know what the crew facilities look like; there may be a small med bay tucked in there somewhere.

Don't worry, you will need a light fighter for your hangar anyway =)
+ the Polaris might not be ready when game launches
Ouch. That sucks. Put a thread in marketplace asking for anyone with a cheap game package.

That's OK. I've waited over 13 years for a game like this, since I first said "This is what i want" while playing Mace Griffin Goddamn Bounty Hunter and realizing I could step out of the cockpit and wander around my ship's interior in the middle of a battle.
I can wait a little more.
