Ok, so I can probabally spend about £40 on this, should I get an upgraded Aurora ship package or a starter level 300 series?

I got impatient.

I'm now the owner of an Aurora LN.

I must admit that I know little about all of this and have blindly purchased based on Rock and Butter's comments.

I'm a bit the same Wabbit.

Some of the packages are just stupidly expensive, Even the $10,000 package does not include everything!!!


At the moment, I can walk around my ship, get into it, sit in the pilots seat, sit in some 3 legged gun that's in my hangar..... and that's about it.
Its pretty disappointing to be honest considering the cost of the thing, I know its only early access, but at least let me fly it around!!

Btw, one of the cool things at the moment is that you can melt (exchange) you current package for UEC credits. It's a 1:1 money ratio. So for your Aurora LN, you would get 45,000 UEC credits to buy another package.

For the expensive packages, you do get quite a lot of stuff and some exclusive tech support. I cannot justify the price of those, but somewhat I understand it. As for the 10k package, you do get to meet CR in person for a full day...
