1.5 billion to get my Cutter to Jaques and it will take two and a half days in real time.
Ship Transfer Costs - These Prices are Nutty!

ANd I don't think it was ever indended to be used in a sustainable way...it is a QoL improvement, not a new game meta.
Reply #6, the nonsense begins.
Transfering an Anaconda costs much more than transfering a Cobra. Hmmm. That must mean that flying the Anaconda either requires a bigger crew, or that it has a much smaller jump range, yeah? No? But it takes exactly the same amount of time. Oh, strike that then. I have no idea what's going on.
Seems reasonable- make sure any transfers are profitable is my advice.
For the sake of one jump it's more like a fine for your own bad planning, and well deserved.

Reply #24, the nonsense is parodied.
I had to look up parodied to make sure it's right. Looks as if Paro died. And I never really got to know him
First off, there was a FD poll on ship transfer time. And instantaneous lost. So pro or con, that's what we got.
As for the price, I'm on the fence. It seems that the "around the Bubble" price is a little high. Shouldn't there already be ship moving industries in place? Other wise how do all the new ships get to all the stations?
For the Jacques station transfer price, I'm not bothered by it. If you're gonna to be a "settler", you should go prepared. That means credits too.
My plan is to fly my Cutter with SLF to Jacques, then move my Mining Clipper, Multi purpose Python, and Long range Asp. Gonna be fun!

Just remember it would have cost more than that on the original plan, an instant ship call. If wanting a mega-ship at Jacques, suggest we'll just have to fly it there (or save up I suppose). How much to order over a Vulture say, to Jacques once you get there? (Still an exceptional case mind, Jacques is a long way out)

meta.. hahahaha. Funny dude.
A couple of thoughts on that:
- we don't know whether we will be able to net 10 millions per hour in this update (haven't been to Ceos/Sothis yet)
- if i did earn that much (which i don't) I wouldn't particularly want to spend it on transfer of ships...i'd rather spend it on new ships, new modules, engineers etc. so i can go out and explore, fight and trade - you know, have fun. Isn't this what the game should be about?
- I'm not advocating free - i'm advocating sensible where sensible should encompass wide accessibility. To my mind, these prices are a magnitude out.
Thanks
transporting ship more expensive than buying ship new....
Sounds legit.
Yeah, immerses about right...
Anyone tried modules yet? I'm curious if they go with the same pricing scheme which would make Class 6 and above more expensive than some ships.
Would they have gone with instant it would have been even more expansive. 250k for a python is peanuts.
If anything, I think it is a bit too cheap.
What a great idea! And I've got one knocking around Ray Gateway.
Surely transferring the hauler back will be as cheap as chips?
