No ship accounts are in the future!

Check out the latest 10 for the chairman. Something I have hoped to hear is confirmed. You will be able to play the game without buying a ship. A cheaper option to bring players in to the game.

Eventually something cool will go in here. It's a matter of time.

Question is.. is it cheaper for me to spend $40 on an account for Owen where he gets an Aurora or wait to see how much the no ship option is?

They way they made it sound was as if a no ship account is the "near free" way to play, something different than the normal ten day to two week trial period associated with MMOs. Then when you want to purchase your first ship you can buy in. But in the mean time you can at least crew ships, walk around and interact with things, and help out on runs.

They might do something like let you play, but you can't buy a ship until you purchase a hangar space or something.

It could be a great way to get an alt-account that you use purely to man a second seat on a ship.
