Star Citizen Alpha 3.0 is available

Star Citizen Alpha 3.0 is available

Some news for  Star Citizen backers as Alpha 3.0 is currently available on the Public Test Server to everyone. This basically means that everyone who has backed up this project will be able to test the alpha 3.0 version of the game. 

Cloud Imperium initially released Star Citizen Alpha 3.0 to all Evocati Test Flight volunteer members back in October. And after two and a half months, the team decided to open its gates to all backers. Star Citizen Alpha 3.0 features planetary landings, persistent universe content, a new back-end item system, implementation of commodities, trading, automated cargo buy/sell kiosks, and, indirectly, piracy, as well as network improvements and user interface enhancements. You can download the latest Star Citizen launcher from here. PC gamers will also have to copy their account to PTU (https://robertsspaceindustries.com/account/copy/ptu). After doing that, backers will get their temporary PTU password delivered in email.

It's apparently going to be pushed to live server today.
Does anybody know if the game still runs bad?

Don't want to waste time downloading if low 30fps is all it does lol
Don't except high performance yet. Netcode is still bottleneck.

Il is still quite bad. I have a core i7 8700k with gtx 1080ti and 32 gig of ram ... running at 30-40 fps. A real mess.

That Squadron 42 footage was awesome. It's basically my dream come true. Their tech is groundbreaking.
