Star Citizen is a First Person MMO Space Sim that covers gameplay in ship & on ground, economy and pretty much anything else you would want. It's First Person and built in the StarEngine (a modified Lumberyard Engine). You'll see massive Space Ships that you can fly with friends, land on planets, explore or whatever your way to whatever goal you choose.
Squadron 42 is the Single Player Campaign and the Spiritual Successor of Wing Commander. The Idea is the game is maximum pretty and seamless... NO LOADING SCREENS. It's currently in the Alpha of it's open development with the hope that SQ42 will be released Q4 2017 - Q2 2018.

Full Disclosure: I am a Star Citizen Fan BUT am not paid or contracted by CIG in anyway other than I am an Evocati Member and as such am under an NDA during closed tests.

Really glad I paid good money for that intel processor so they could slow it down for me.

I’m off to AMD tribe. Ignoring a bug that is 10 years old is enough for me to abandon Intel

Thanks for looking into this and for keeping an eye on it as it develops. I have been searching for how this might affect my PC, and I'm certain that I'm not alone.

Good info and I concur : no need to panic, the vulnerability is easily adressed and the performance hit survivable

Thanks! I assumed that this was a lot worse than it turned out to be in reality. Great job bored!

Great explanation of the problem, thank you! I'm really hoping this is completely corrected for older CPU's.
