I saw some 1 million credit combat missions (not assassination) before the patch. Could be legit

Cobra is gonna be x10 better for smuggling. Just add cargo, decent fsd, heat sinks if you like D-back explorer will be good too

I think this game just needs way better mission structure and tons more ships. Also cooler signal sources and salvage stuff. All of which Frontier has said is on the way? I just wish that these had been the focus way earlier

No he's right about the core gameplay being good. Frontier just needs to focus more on adding stuff to do and diversifying possible goals and gameplay styles. I think they're working toward that, too. Whenever they set a goal or promise they deliver. CQC is good fun and even if you don't buy horizons you'll more than likely have access to the new ships and be able to play in their hopefully redone missions. Power play is just a disappointment personally because it seems poorly thought out and personally not fun. E: but hey I never ever have to engage in power play either!

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:So any suggestions on smuggling and not getting caught? I'm going to be extremely up front with you getting caught is really a non issue. Just don't pay the fines! In a serious answer though you can use silent running, which isn't totally bullet proof. If someone sees you they can scan you (within a range). Alternatively you can buy heat sink launchers and fire them off while running cold (turning off non essential modules) at 0% heat you're essentially a space rock. I've never been scanned when doing the latter

Why are you paying the fines at all

They usually give you an alternate drop off point and say they'll pay you like 16k That being said with the way npcs follow you now you may drop off to tak to a friendly guy but get jumped by 3 unfriendly npcs

The witchspace thing is 100% because the servers or game can't deal with people having lots of missions at once. No one ever noticed before because no one took lots of missions lolFronzelNeekburm posted:It's all smuggling missions, not normal fetch quests. You can do it. Not true. The smuggling missions pay the most but there are low cargo standard missions that can be worth over a million.

Then why we're all the other non long range missions cut back too? It's too bad the switching modes exploit wasn't fixed instead of this. Fixing the game's problem instead of just cutting the fun stuff would be cool frank.club fucked around with this message at 14:16 on Oct 20, 2015 |

Games should be fun. Sard posted:You idiot, you missed the opportunity to own me by mentioning the warp whistles in Super Mario Brother 3. I just don't think they have made that complete. And I get why they freak out hard in the opposite direction when something like this happens. Because people probably get to the end and think 'oh poo poo why did I do all that'. They've got the length part down but the rest is up in the air. I think that A) completely revamping the missions and B) having something to spend credits on other than ships and modules would be great. Ships as progression is totally cool, they shouldn't be the only form of progression.

Then earning regular cash should be way more interesting. True you no longer have to trade to get cash. I've put time into every single 'path' offered in Elite. They all get boring after a while. Maybe the point is to switch them up? With combat you eventually become a murder machine and the AI doesn't do much in the way of variation. With exploration you eventually realize that planets are just the same textures after a few solar systems (tbf this is getting changed in Horizons regardless of if you bought the dlc). Mining and trading are podcast supplements. There's probably some fun in having an anaconda. That's my current goal anyways and thanks to Sothis it's almost achievable.
