Yes, there is insurance , but it wont cost much in game money (kinda like in EVE Online). If you lose your ship, the insurance company will replace the hull and basic modules.
No monthly fees.
Its a crowdfunding campaign, so you CAN pledge more money if you want. But you ONLY need a basic package (which currently costs 54 $ .... wait until X-mas, they may have again a special deal for 25 $ like last year). Basic package comes with a ship (Aurora or Mustang).
They release a solo game (Squadron 42 ... like the old Wing Commander games). And a multiplayer Persistent Universe part.

Enjoy and know the truth always comes to light!
BUT as a veteran you get a discount. ...... Yuppeeee !! :-/ .... i think......
So much for not pushing anything on you beyond paint jobs ....
Have fun
PS:
"Brabrands" should mean David Braben, Frontier CEO and "Mr. Elite"..... i guess
If it was an expansion, you would need to purchase original game prior an expansion, something you need not. Horizons as they are is just a new game version.
The discount is supposed to be a limited time pre-order offer only.
Pricing is a bit stupid towards people who already bought the game since they essentially need to pay for the game again...
That was more than 50 % discount (54 %)
Have fun

E:D is charging full price for half a game. Then charging full price for the rest of it. Yet no ones getting all strung out over it (other than me, I'm pissed as hell). I paid $50 for a barebones Flight sim and then I'm expected to pay another $40 for the rest of the game? Yeah that's not going to happen. But I paid $40 for SC and I'm getting a full space sim plus a SP game. But SC is the one ripping people off?

SC you paid 40 but you have no inkling if the finished game will be any fun or work properly, so you might not even get your money's worth which I believe where the issue comes from.
I understand that new customers pretty much always get better deals, it is still kind of meh tho...
The truly akward about the expansion is, imo, the fact that it doesn't containt planetary stuff exclusively
As far as SC is concerned I know what I'm getting out of the gate, I've seen it. I haven't played it yet because the game has not been released yet. But that is how the passage of time works. I will have to wait until it's ready to be released to play it. That takes time. The fact that I'm not being nickeled and dimed to death for a full space sim, whether its good or not, makes me more hopeful for SC.
Oh yeah I forgot the most important part: NO game is worth $90. NO game. MMO's don't count because you get updates with your sub.

There is no solution that would satisfy all parties.
And again, their was a time that ED was not released, remember? Did you shit all over it because of it? Their are THOUSANDS of games that are not yet released. Shall we make preemptive post about how bad they are? Does that make any sense? Neither does trolling (not saying you are but holy shit it's happening at a grand scale) SC because it's not released yet. BTW no fucks are to be given because of the KS release date that has nothing to do with the game we are getting now.

To add to my other response to @Gdemami my ultimate mistake as far as my purchase of ED was that I was comparing the 2 games to each other. I assumed (I did it again

There will be a full "walking around with my avatar on populated planets" part coming out later.
And that wont be cheap.

1) Base game inc. expansion = Ł 40 / 80
Great deal for new players and developer, sucks for former players - expensive.
2) Base game inc. expansion + Ł10 discount for former players = Ł 40 / 70
Same as 1) just sucks a tiny bit less for former players.
3) Base game + expansion = Ł 80
Fair to new and former players, but otherwise sucks for everyone, especially for developer - the most expensive of all solutions.
4) Base game inc. expansion + free expansion for former players = Ł 40
Great deal for new and former players but sucks for developer - no money from expansions.
5) Base game + expansion, free expansions for former players = Ł 80 / Ł 40
Great deal for former players but sucks for new players and developer - expensive for new players, entry barrier.
etc. etc.
There is no solution that will work for everyone involved.
