"Test drives" for Armory/Premium ships?

[DemocracyExpress]

Have you considered introducing a system which allowed the player to take out a certain ship for a limited time as a way for said player to tell if he like it?
With how valuable coal and steel are (not to mention actual cash) it'd be nice to be able to get a feel for a ship before actually making the investment.

Thank you.

Seconded!!

 

Maybe let you play even a few Coop games but with no upgrades/flags etc similar to rental ships for ranked. And no XP or credits earned while on trial which seems perfectly fair for a test of something for nothing.

 

Or even have the currently available premiums available on the test server. At least then you don't have to introduce a new system to the game since your actions on test do not affect your live account.

 

I for one would love this idea as I've been stung so many times by paper stats or pretty new premiums.
