Now that CIG's development infrastructure is ready, are you planning or toying with new ideas for future projects after Star Citizen is released? Some vague schedules for bigger expansions to Star Citizen, Squadron 42, or even non-Star Citizen related projects?asked by Matt Burrus

TL;DRThey are focused 100% on Star Citizen, plan frequent content updates and more Squadron 42-style story experiences for years afterward, and have no plans for non-Star Citizen projects.

So the answer to that is we're 100% focused on Star Citizen here, and the way that Star Citizen is being created is, once it's released, that won't be the end of Star Citizen. We're actually planning to be releasing content on a very regular schedule. We're actually hoping to almost be weekly if we possibly can. So we'll be constantly updating the Persistent Universe, adding new features, locations, ships, characters over hopefully years and years and years. I mean, obviously that relies on people playing the game and it still being a viable enterprise, but EVE Online is still going 10 years later, so we would love to be in that same position. And then we'll also do some additional story segments, very much like Squadron 42. So Squadron 42 won't be the only single player experience we do. We will be doing additional experiences like that, that people will be able to play inside the Star Citizen universe. So the answer is, yes, we are going to do a lot of stuff in Star Citizen, but we don't really have any plans for non-Star Citizen stuff, because we sort of view Star Citizen as a... It's not a short-term commitment, it's a very long-term thing, and hopefully you guys will all be playing and enjoying it many years to come.
