There's no "what about" about it - store items have been in since day one, and they are completely optional. Why is it suddenly offending you now? If you are so against it, why did you buy the game?

Promise: Different Carrier classes.
Reality: Just different 3D models locked behind DLC, in turn locked behind ARX which is another can of worms.

this is not about skins anymore, i can live with that, do you not understand the point im trying to make with this post ?

They cut the content aka classes of fleet carriers, and made them into micro transaction. Capice ?

Frontier were very clear long before the first Carrier beta that their original plan for different types of carrier, complete with support ships, was unworkable and they weren't going to go that way.

Fine, off you trot then.

I mean really, here you get the full functionality of the ship for free but have to pay for cosmetics. F2P games, you get limited functionality, or a limited choice of equipment etc and have to pay to unlock more, unless you fancy a grind that makes anything in this game look fairly trivial.

Either way it's your choice to make.

What I would like to see is the ability to choose the layout when you purchase the fleet carrier.....then I wouldn't mind earning in game Arx for the different layouts. I've just spent most of the in game ARX I built up yesterday, with the christmas bonuses I had just over 10,000. Bought myself another COVAS and engine & weapon detailing - all 33% off at the moment, except for the new FC stuff....hmmm good marketing strategy by FD there. For a fleeting moment it made me consider buying an ARX pack to customise the FC I'm intending to buy in game, but then I thought again and thought Nah nice try FD.

Of the skins in store I like the Nautilus the most and Blaine seems to be the clearest ATC voice but still very quiet not sure about the other options but I have months and months at a minimum to make up my mind before I can afford to get an FC comfortably.

Well currently the only layout is two columns of 4 large pads each which are flanked by a column of 2 medium pads topped by 2 small pads side by side, this layout is surrounded by the different cosmetics.

So instead of making actual fleet carrier classes that was talked about earlier, all we get is one carrier, but instead you made them into microtransactions ? How is nobody complaining about this ?
Every single costumization of the carrier is locked behind f2p model microtransactions ?

By the way, do you know that Fleet Carriers have off line upkeep, and you can lose it of you dont keep playing?
