Package split between Star Citizen and S42 date confirmed.

howdy all.
like the title says, we have the final date when they are splitting up star citizen persistent universe and squadron 42. this will happen on February 14th.
what does this mean?
it means that when you buy a game package after February 14th, you will no longer get both, star citizen, and squadron 42 in a single package. they are essentially 2 separate games based on the same universe.
what does it mean for per-existing backers?
nothing, since we have game packages before this date. all game packages we have, will include both games.
so, if you know anyone who is interested in star citizen and you think they would like to participate in both SC and S42. between now and Feb 14th would be a good time to pick up a package. keep in mind it doesn't effect stand alone ships, since they don't contain any game packages at all. so let them know to look at the 'Packages' and not just ships.
at this time i am assuming a star citizen package will include the same items they do now, except the squadron 42 game. i do not know what the squadron 42 packages will contain. ( meaning, i am not sure if the S42 packages will give access to arena commander and stuff like that.)
if i come across any more details i will post them here.
