Re: Balancing Factor: Resource Storage Limit


Unlock-once occurs through the cert system, and by some things that can be purchased either with certain resources or station cash in the store.

They have to give things recurring costs or resources become useless. If they're just used for unlocking you'll have no desire to get more resources as soon as you've unlocked everything you care about. By making them cost resources to acquire they can both balance the upgrades/vehicles and keep resources relevant throughout the lifetime of the game.
