My honest pick (after years of trying them all)
If I were starting today: Aurora MR at $45. I started with the Mustang Alpha back in my early days and switched within a month — the Aurora's small cargo bay turned out to matter a lot more than fighter agility for the way I actually play (delivery missions, a bit of mining, occasional bounty work).
If you know you want to fight from day one, get the Aurora LN ($50) instead — same hull, better weapons. Skip the Mustang Alpha unless budget is the absolute deciding factor.
Which starter Game Package should you buy?
There is no single "best" package — it depends on what you want to do first. Here are the most common picks by playstyle.
👉 Just want the cheapest entry
Pick Mustang Alpha or Aurora MR at $45. Both give you full game access. Aurora MR is more versatile day-to-day; Mustang Alpha is faster in a fight.
👉 Want to make money fast
Pick the Avenger Titan at $70. Small cargo bay + capable in combat means you can run delivery missions and bounty contracts from day one.
👉 Want to explore the universe
Pick the Mustang Beta at $70. Longer fuel range and a small bed for sleep cycles. Great for scouting unknown jump points.
👉 Coming for combat first
Pick the Aurora LN ($50) or Mustang Alpha ($45). Both have decent weapons. You will upgrade quickly anyway — start cheap.
The 50,000 UEC bonus — don't skip this step
The Game Package gives you the ship. The referral code gives you in-game starting currency to actually outfit it — armor, weapon, ammo, basic gear. Without the code you spend the first 5–10 hours grinding for the same items.
It costs $0 extra. Just paste STAR-JTV7-FXLR in the Referral Rewards field at signup, or click the orange Enlist Now button below — the code is pre-filled automatically.
