Your first Star Citizen session: seven checks

Use this checklist to prepare the account and launcher, then choose a manageable first activity. You can print it before opening the game.

  1. Confirm access on the correct account

    Log in to RSI and read the contents in My Hangar. A Game Package grants Star Citizen access; a standalone hull is different. During a trial, verify that the Free Fly actually admits new accounts.

  2. Finish account setup

    Choose a player referral code during registration if you want the standard bonus. An account without a code can still add one within 24 hours. See the account decision path; buying a package is not required within that entry window.

  3. Check hardware and storage

    Allow at least 150 GB on an SSD and check CPU, RAM and GPU compatibility on RSI's requirements page. Leave additional space for updates. The minimum specification does not guarantee a particular frame rate.

  4. Use the official launcher

    Follow the download guide. Select the intended Live channel and check the service status before troubleshooting a connection failure. A PTU announcement does not mean that version is live for everyone.

  5. Learn which balance you are seeing

    Alpha uses aUEC. Account UEC and package-included currency are distinct, and patch conditions affect your starting balance. Check mobiGlas after entering the game. A late referral addition can delay crediting; repeated logins do not create repeated signup rewards.

  6. Choose a small first task

    Start with the ship you have access to. Learn basic travel before committing all available credits to commodities. The trading guide explains capital risk, while the ship hub helps you explore other roles without assuming a larger pledge is necessary.

  7. Expect alpha interruptions

    Check current official incident and patch information when something fails. Progress, cargo and equipment can be lost or reset. Record a reproducible problem rather than buying more equipment to solve a server issue.
