| Posted: 11 Feb 2022 09:52 PM PST In my opinion, for an endgame player, 100m/hr is a reasonable, average amount most of us can earn. Yes, I know some of you may balk at that figure and assume it's massively high, but it's nothing at all compared to past gold rushes where you earned for example 250-300mil/hr or more. The problem is that right now the only way to earn that relatively average figure is stacking endless missions, be it Robigo or massacre or mining delivery, and gaming RNG to get proper payouts for our time. The fact that AFKing the game via a Type 10 to make doing so bearable is the meta right now is fucking vile. I do not understand how FDEV can look at this and go "Yes, this is the gameplay we want to force our players into to feel rewarded". And by god, do they. CGs pay a pittance for even the top ten, and their "rebalance" of combat payouts only lead to more mission stacking. Meanwhile, they nerf everything we find to make decent cash while actual bugs sit unfixed for months. We've been flipping the boards since twenty fucking fifteen. I made my first billion in the original Sothis biowaste gold rush. The fact that we're STILL here playing the mission boards for viable payouts is absurd. Enough of this shit. Let us make money without hundreds of hours of grind. We know you're trying to pad out your player hours and active numbers, FDEV. Maybe more of us would keep playing if you didn't keep whack-a-moling our methods of doing so. Anyway, this is just a huge rant after a week of trying to get friends into this game I've been playing for years, and having friend after friend be almost instantly turned away by the sheer weight of the grind. I'd love to share what Elite has to offer, there's so much beauty here, but FDEV keeps kneecapping the things that let us enjoy it. [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 11 Feb 2022 10:54 PM PST Everyone's focusing on looting Anarchy factions over and over, but there is another option! SUPPORT the anarchies! The question is: WHY do people attack anarchy factions? Because you don't get bounties that way. And why is that important? Because if you get a bounty, you can't take missions from the mission board anymore! But there's a way around this! If you're based at a station owned by an anarchy faction! They don't care about bounties or notoriety, and they'll allow you to keep accumulating rep with the local factions, significantly increasing the rate at which you can upgrade your suits and weapons! The best part is, because this makes it impossible to screw up and need to move on to a new system, you can preserve your good rep with local factions, improve your negotiating power, and get your suits and weapons upgraded significantly faster. I regularly get missions rewarding me with 10x Manufacturing Instructions, for example! So rather than ATTACKING the anarchy faction, try SUPPORTING the anarchy faction! You're all murdering everyone in the base half the time, anyway; do it for a good cause! [link] [comments] | ||
