I am sorry to say that I don't understand your logic when you say "think of all the kids who don't have money".
All the ships are available by collecting greens and reaching the required system/level/finding needed blue print etc... So those without money or who choose NOT to spend money in the game can STILL get the ships. What is WRONG with being able to buy them with gold? Hmmmm?? And I don't mean the "rare" ones or the CQ reward ships either but rather JUST the NORMAL hanger supplied ones!!
All I simply suggested was another possible money making avenue for Split Screen! After all, All missions are system specific aren't they? So any higher level ship purchased wouldn't really be usable for missions etc now would they? NO!
Also, for a ship to actually work half reasonably you need SUITABLE BPs! Try running a SOL Ship using Gemini BPs!! It simply wont work too well! Thus I still see NO valid reason why buying ships in the shop cannot be done (except through a decision that Split Screen have made).
Not having access to spend money in the game is NO reason for ships NOT to be there! They may well be OTHER reasons I am not made aware of as yet! However, the reason they were originally REMOVED has NOW BEEN FIXED by making missions SYSTEM SPECIFIC!! Before, players could buy the ship and use their best BPs on it to do STORY MISSIONS, thus giving them far greater survivability - this was seen as "cheating" of sorts. Hence, the "rules" where changed to make SMs system specific tech.
Fair enough too!
But now, the original idea for removal has been made redundant thus allowing the possibility of the next system ships to be included in the shop for purchase (once they have been made of course), and any existing ships can be added also.
