Had enough of this constant grind!

SENTER · Jan 4, 2015

I've been trading for weeks between ports trying to make money. I have made a few million but I'm wiped out by it! ITS BORING ME TO TEARS!!! Constantly buying and selling tack to make a few credits!

Because of this I have decided to store my Type 6 for a while. Just got a second ship (Cobra) and kitted it out with 2 millions worth of goodies. I'm off exploring, mining and blowing up pirates. I'm currently in Achenar and I have every intention of stopping past Lave to pay homage before darting off to Sol to giggle like a school boy because they have a planet there called "Uranus" hehehe.

Does anyone need anything from the shop while I'm out?

128 tons of Paladium please - and some dog food, I think I'm out

PS: the grind is killing me too, I have nearly 8 million in the bank and an expensively fitted out Asp but - I'm bleeding from the ears because I want to go exploring but trading has made me obsessively chase ever last bit of profit I can

Why would you trade if it's boring? Why not just play what's fun to you in the first place?

I need a litre of Leestian Evil Juice.
Thanks in advance =)

I have had the same boredom as OP

I would love to join you for trip to Sol but don't you need a permit for it?

Needed coin. Wanted to kit out a decent ship and trading didn't start out boring. I will indeed go back to it but it got so monotonous that I need a break. Going out to fetch dog food seems like a good way of doing it!

Think I've got one. Perk of being a backer is that you can visit your own system? Not sure why they did that.

Aye, I don't think much of trading, and I don't go getting into the credits hamster wheel. Been playing since the last wipe, and this is the extend of my trading:

Same happened to me after my 3rd million, so I pimped my Cobra and went hunting and have been having a blast popping [NPC] Eagles and Sideys at Nav beacons for a change of pace. Its always good to change things up for awhile when it's becoming a chore.

Bought 6 tons of the evil juice, game malfunctions and pulls the "jettison all cargo" lever on its own - right by the letterbox... Tried to scoop em up: LOITERING! FINE!, LOITERING! ANOTHER FINE!, LOITERING! ANOTHER FUDGING FINE!

I gave up. Started to cost too much. That juice is... Evil.

It is so easy to get stuck into a routine isn't it? "I can go and do something different or I can go to the next system and make 100,000 profit"

I've come to the conclusion that I didn't buy this adventure to watch zeros add up like an accountant. I brought it to have fun and enjoy it!

Pedigree chum or Bonio?

Grab me some Korro Kung Pallets please. They're on the Lonchakov Orbital station in the Korror Kung system. Can't miss the station it's near the start, about 622,040ls near.

See you in a month when you get back

Dude you suck at trading!!! However your combat rank says you are an expert so I'll just slink off into the shadows and pretend I never said anything!
