No boosters, I think the game relies on a combination of space ship sales and chasing tier 5 for its real world money income.

Because i want
Advanced Excelsior Retrofit.
Galaxy-X Dreadnought.
Dakota Class Heavy Cruiser Retrofit.
Assault Cruiser Sovereign Refit.
Exploration Cruiser Galaxy Class Retrofit.
LR Science Vessel Interpid Retrofit.
Defiant class Retrofit Tactical Escort.

Why? Because my account got banned.

Regional ban.

Maybe take that up with support (the account ban)? Those ships in total (assuming you're buying the t5 version, which is what you mentioned, and not the t6 version) would cost you around $150. T6 versions would be $180.

You didn't specify if you were looking for the fleet version.

Ships in particular:

Advanced Excelsior Retrofit.

Galaxy-X Dreadnought.

Dakota Class Heavy Cruiser Retrofit.
http://sto.gamepedia.com/Mirror_Universe_Heavy_Cruiser_Retrofit

The Heavy Cruiser isn't available in the C-store. It's available from the fleet store (at some tier) for 200,000 fleet credits. I linked the Mirror version, which has switched bridge officer seating over the normal one.

Assault Cruiser Sovereign Refit.

The Sovereign refit is the Regent-class. Ship comes with the standard Sovereign parts though.

Exploration Cruiser Galaxy Class Retrofit.

LR Science Vessel Interpid Retrofit.

Defiant class Retrofit Tactical Escort.

Sorry but there is nothing you can do about it. Cryptic really never cared about banned accounts or things like that. Keep in mind, you are playing a free to play videogame. They dont even have to respond to your ticket. And they probably wont, by the way. Knowing how terrible is cryptic support. If you lost such ammount of money you are NEVER ever going to get it back, or the ships. I know this is hard to read, but sadly it is a big fact. The money you invest in this game is up to you. And they can get rid of your account just because they can and you cant do anything about it, even if you invested 2000$ in the game.
Thank man and it was only 2000 for that account.

Put 2 grands worth of cash into the account or bought the account for two grand?

In the first hand thats a ton of money for a f2p game so you may want to avoid that kind of play model in future games.

And in the case of the latter well if you buy an account then its a breach of the ToS and you get what you have coming to you. Let it be an expensive learning experience.

Cryptic can't do anything about a regional ban, that's something you would have to take up with your government/dictator.

I really don't mind lmao, a regional ban is for region only, i can move away and play in other region.

I make more than that per months so it not a big deal to me.

I also earn A LOT of money. That doesnt mean that i need to be stupid...
It not stupid...I didn't pay 2000 all in one go, it's a progress, it was because paid users were so powerful so i decided to pay, But hey, it's the past.
Mr. Fibble Jul 22, 2017 @ 11:03am 
Earning a lot of money should be a big deal.

If its not you'll end up with kids who will spend their life leeching off you and your credit card and probably a wife or two who are more than willing to do the same.

And "paid" players in this game are no more powerful than those who took the longer route and earned it all in game. Zen ships don't become better for those who got the zen by cash.
