Not only does Star Citizen, on a crowd-funding level have something to celebrate, but also another factor to throw some recognition at is their registered player count. The title has caused over 2 million players to register, hitting another milestone for the developer.

Currently, as I'm writing this Star Citizen has raised $181,058,276 and has just passed over the 2 million registered user mark. This massive achievement in crowd-funding means that on average each player that is donating, has donated around $90 each for the title to be completed.
