(Refurbishing an old thread of mine:)

Since some people are concerned about they may have nothing more to achieve when they own several ships, this thread is meant to blow away their concerns and hopefully they decide to pledge for another ship or two :).

IMHO this game should be considered as Pledge2Win -> We will (hopefully) all win a great game by supporting CIG.
And it is also Pay2Lose -> When you consider the concept as 'buying' or 'investing', then you already have lost money. You have less hours of outstanding & fun gameplay until you achieve a certain goal.
So think of it as Pledge2Win - there are so many roles to fit in such a game:

So what are you going to do in Star Citizen? I consider myself as a poor role-player (especially in english language), but my revised list what I want to do is:

- be a Bounty Hunter for UEE, Police or other Players (get assignements as in Freelancer)
- be a merchant and find the best route with much profit, perhaps having friends in fighters for protection
- be a guard for a freighter or a refugee transport
- be a space trucker carrying a 100 tons of fuel, always in fear of the next attack
- be a race driver through asteroid/mine fields and race tracks
- be a pirat and force others to eject their cargo or try to infiltrate their ships
- be the most wanted person dead in Star Citizen
- be a smuggler, playing hide and seek with police and other players and find a secret route
- mine asteroids and junkyards searching for resources or valuables with tractor beams
- be a soldier for the UEE in a space war against rebels or an alien race
- be a rebel or an alien and fight against the UEE :P
- fly a rescue-mission to pick up ejected fighter pilots
- be an explorer to go to the farest places and far beyond and search for things noone has seen before
- go into a bar and chat with other pilots and play something with them and show off my achievements
- go around my hangar module and invite friends to modify ships - and visit theirs
- be a builder and blast asteroids away for save transit
- command a corvette and coordinate a battle from the command center
- be owner of a small facility and manage it
- flying drunk in a mine field
- man a turret on an Idris or Bengal Carrier during a giant battle
- get boarded and beat the invaders / (more likely) being killed by the invaders
- get arrested and sold as a slave
- finally die like a spaceman

And consider that: All of the above can be done when already pledged for one or more ships.

Excuse me, I'm getting excited even more every day :)
