PirateEmpire. By Disney I mean POTCO/the Developers. I use the terms interchangeably, so please bear with me on that. Basics were never able to use a Frigate, or even Light Frigate before. POTCO needs money, so by having Unlimited have more, people have a motivation to upgrade and give them money so that they can continue to add things FOR BASIC AND UNLIMITED. Every time they update the game, basics will get a little more. Perhaps not as much as unlimited access, I agree with you there. But again, POTCO needs people to upgrade so they get money. Ask around anywhere, and I'm sure that most people will agree that whenever POTCO adds something for unlimited, basics get a little too. And when you talked about how basics got hardly anything from the inventory expansion... well, let me put it this way. They may not be able to have EVERYTHING, but I'm sure that anyone would agree that a little is better than nothing at all. And yes, some things will never be for basics, but that is the way it is. Basics want to get this stuff, they upgrade, POTCO gets money, and they add more stuff for BASIC AND UNLIMITED. There is a reason that basics cannot have everything, which I have already emphasized, but I will emphasize again. POTCO needs the money so that they can continue to keep the game running.

Now, if you really think that you aren't getting enough from the game, then maybe this isn't the right game for you.

And Del, you nailed it in the head. I couldn't disagree with anything you said.
