Level limits

Hey, are there lvl limits on the iOS Lite version?

All lite accounts are limited to license level 3, IIRC.

I'm curious if there's level limits on the free play accounts too. Inc hasn't made a comprehensive post about how this is all supposed to work yet.

Yes, that would be nice to have clarification.

With the new crytstal rollout, are their still Level Limits on Lite Version Subscription? For iOS/Android/PC?

Oh man, I would love to raise level caps with crystal meth

buying level increases with crystal sounds like a p cool idea, it would have to be a large ammount to actually entice players to purchase it with $$$ though

What would be nice is some subscription accounts between the Premium and Lite. Maybe a 3.99/4.99/5.99 etc. each with a different level cap? 3.99 gets you level caps of 4, 4.99 gets you level caps of 5, 5.99 gets you level caps of 6 etc. For whatever reason, probably a very valid one, uncapped levels are only at the Premium account.

Why not introduce other pricing levels at varying level caps? Seems a good way to get some additional users, possibly, and lets them play with equipment you can't find at the 3/4 level cap they have now. If this gets them hooked on the game, then it would be that much easier to convince them to go the premium route. Right now, it's hard to make the decision since on the PC you can reach Level 3 fairly quickly. Maybe the DeVs will consider this for an upcoming release.

-1 to the stupid idea of spending actual dollars to level.

The idea of using crystal to raise level cap is actually a really good one. It'd allow f2p users to specialise in one or two mid-advanced ship types and have just the right levels for them, but wouldn't grant the same freedoms that subscription players enjoy to just max everything and do whatever.

Plus, the nation specials (skycommand, X1, whatever shit the UIT are left with) need lots of levels across the board to use, so they'd have to pay for the privilege of flying the best ships.

I think the idea is to unlock max levels, and only allow the purchases of higher tier ships with crystal. So you could unlock a rag 1 and a basic behemoth, but the MkIII and XC are crystal-only.
