Title: I am ready to get knee deep immersed in Star Citizen, where do I start?

I really want to get into the lore and universe of this game because I think it will be fun. Also it's very easy to see the effort and seriousness the devs are applying to this game. Where should I start with this?

I don't follow the fiction that's been released so much but first watch the vid if you haven't seen it yet. this vid is a little dated info wise but its pretty informative.

If your a fan of games like Wing Commander,  X-Wing, Freelancer this is probably something you should checkout if you haven't already!  Remember to get into the alpha/beta and final game you need to get at least the $35 package and you get a ship with that.

if your really into following the creation you can watch the weekly video-podcast called wingmans hangar.

I was just looking at some images on the constellation and man this thing is loaded to the gills with weapons not to mention the snub fighter that can be deployed.

The neat thing is all the ships seem extremely configurable. I was reading through stats and item options and it almost seems like you could start a group that made their business out of salvage.

There was something about using a tractor beam to haul resources from destroyed ships onto yours. You could almost make an in-game living out of waiting just outside the zone of a battle and cleaning up afterwards.

That's in addition to being a merchant, explorer, pirate, military, mercenary, or who knows what else.

Ok so Jr messaged me yesterday saying he bought he workbench for his hangar.  I thought it was rather exp for a decoration but apparently it has function as well.  with the workbench you can overclock your ships systems and do mods.  So Im thinking this is something im gonna get as well:)  10,000uec
