I ' m , it making an assumption , that ' s explicitly how CR said it would work . I ' d link it for you but I ' m on mobile and don ' t have time to find a source but I ' m sure you can find it . Players will do what is fun . Sure they may take a cheaper ship to minimize potential losses , but regardless , players will do what is fun . Maybe not all of them , but definitely some . The reason star citizen will be different is because players will have a lot more freedom to approach a scenario than they have in any other game before . I ' m not claiming that things will be monumentally different , but the incredible amount of freedom that is being given to the players will definitely make things happen differently than you ' re saying .
