Paywall for racing character cosmetics, bomber racks, and AI plugs for the manned turrets on bigger ships. The AI plugs are a big stickler as there are different price points for better plugs. All of them are not available to be earned on game.
Huh? There are no better blades yet. Just side-grades, and only for a few test ships.
What's weird are people making a stink about this now when they've always gated content since the pledge store existed. Stuff appears on the pledge store for three months and then it's available in game. As a few others said, it's bizarre that THIS is what people decided to get riled up about.... TWELVE years after they had already been doing it.
Paywall for what?

Judging by the thumbnail, they're selling not just ships but ship upgrades for real money.
That's correct. Ship upgrades that aren't even universal. Each ship has a different set of parts.
