Do not start alone

Help & Community

Star Citizen becomes easier if you accept help. This page neutralizes community, guide system and learning sources.

Executive summary

  • Many entry problems are solved faster with explanation than by hours of hijacking.
  • Use official or well moderated assistance offers and critically check recommendations.
  • Official guides and Spectrum are good starting points; community responses should be checked for topicality.

Why help makes so much difference

Star Citizen has many systems that explain little in the game itself. An experienced player can show you in minutes what you would be looking for alone for for an hour.

This applies not only to battle or ships, but to simple things: space port, hangar, mission terminal, inventory or respawn.

Guide System, Orgs and Communities

Depending on the condition, the official environment provides guidance on guide systems or community help. Orgs, Discords, YouTube and Twitch can also help if they explain calmly and easily to beginners.

Be careful with recommendations that immediately suggest expensive purchases. Good help explains options and lets you decide.

sc-start.com as starting point

This website aims to structure the first decisions: understand game, check technique, prepare account and referral code, use Free Fly and learn first steps.

It does not replace official documentation and no community, but gives you a quiet order.

How You Recognize Good Help

Good help is patient, explains risks and does not make false promises. She openly says that Star Citizen Alpha is and bugs or Wipes are possible.

If a source only makes pressure to buy immediately or choose certain ships, distance is reasonable.
