Upgradeable ships

Out of curiosity, would anyone else like to see a players get the ability to upgrade your base star ship. So if you wanted, you could start with a explore cruiser and upgrade it so it had similar stats to a star cruiser.

    If I remember correctly, the Devs said it wasn't that easy. They are having to create a T5 Galaxy. Plus, I think part of the game experience is moving up from smaller ships to larger ships.

    There has been a lot of talk in the community about being able to upgrade ships so you can use any of them when you have reached Rear Admiral.

    Frankly I wouldn't like what you are suggesting, but the idea of reaching Rear Admiral and then upgrading lets say a Captain ship to have the same stats as a Rear Admiral would be great.

    I could understand why that would be difficult to do. A lot of things are easier said than done.

    I would personally like to see a salvage system in the game. Every ship destroyed or found can be salvaged for a certain number of points that can be used to upgrade previous ships with more BO slots, more equipment slots, etc, etc. This would not only make the game more customizable but give players something to do once they reach endgame.
