Just curious, we state that a Battleship is say 700M credits, but what if you had the chance to use real life personnel funds to get equipment? If you were offered a Cap8 but it would cost you 15 GBPs, would you take it?
Just got me thinking thats all. And no, this isn't a discussion on paying to play the game/mod. Its a discussion on how far you would be willing to go (if at all) in using real money to enhance your game capabilities. (New items - BS/Caps etc)
I'd never ever pay a single real buck for any FL ship/equipment. For me it's a game, FL is leisure, FL is virtuality, therefore not worth to be funded with money I've earned in real life.

not a single penny. first of all it would ruin the fun of getting something via hard work - and when you get the THING you would be more exited about it if you earned it the hard way then by paying RL money. So yeah wouldn't pay anything to get it - hard work to get things for me = fun.

And this,again.
ALL this would do is piss off the economically challenged,and they would then direct their hatred towards those who have the money.

The physically challenged are already pissed off that this is a twitch game, and the economically challenged are pissed off that they cant afford a computer.
That said, I wouldn't pay that amount of money for a PvP boost. Maybe for a custom textured ship though.

Freelancer is not worth paying anything. The game itself is just too bad nowdays.
On the other hands, I don't see anything wrong with people paying money for games. If you want to get quality you need to pay for it. Of course, with everything there should be limits. And what is too much it's bad for ya.
