The planned schedule, from what I recall, is the hangar this month, dogfighting end of the year, then some kind of social module halfway through 2014 followed by persistent universe end of 2014. As far as I know there never were plans to have a finished product before 2015.
They are barely a year into development. Most developers don't even show you a bloody screenshot until 2+ years in.

After the Kickstarter campaign had ended, funding continued through the game's website, which reports having raised over $15 million. It reached the $15 million milestone on August 1st, 2013. This made Star Citizen the largest crowd-funded project ever. The estimated total dollar amount required to finish the development of the game is $21 million. The game will continue to collect crowd-funded donations until its expected release date in December 2014.

Emphasis mine. Followed later by this.

Final Release (estimated Q1 2015) - Full commercial release of both Squadron 42 and Star Citizen.

Again, emphasis mine.
So, it was pushed back. Maybe I'm not such an idiot after all.
