payouts

Answer me this: How many of you don't have either a Python or an Anaconda? I've done some polls in some discord servers / groups / with some friends, and the answers were exactly as I expected, but more one on that in a bit. The reason I'm asking this is quite simple: Why would I spend more...

The system how the payouts work for missions should be changed. I don't like it how most of the players boost others through the game with sharing missions, doing all the work and everyone else receiving payouts for doing literally nothing. I think it should be changed, that you only get payouts...

I am Elite exploration and Allied with the minor faction in question, however I have mission offers for destinations 22000LY away that only pay around 1 million credits. Yet there are missions for closer destinations paying over 20 million credits. Additionally, the game only gives you 1 week...

So Kamadenhu (or however it's spelled) was pretty much my home system when I started playing Elite. I was based out of there for months. So when it came under attack from Thargoids I thought I'd go and defend my one-time home. Killed two scouts 20k. Ship repairs/rearm/restock/refuel in my...

Dear FDEV. Honest experience with your piece of "economy" balance. From a relatively fresh player. TLDR: Relatively new player who avoided exploits as much as I could. Unhappy with the fact that risky missions pay less than safe ones, which makes grind boring and exploits attractive. ZERO F's...

I was wondering if anyone else has come across this issues before. I believe a little back story might be needed. I am in route to Colonia. ~8000Ly from the bubble. My buddy asked if I could join his crew to help defend is Type-9 during a Wing mission that pays 13mil Cr. After serveral attempts...

The current payouts for the CZs and fir hunting Thargoid Scouts are far too low for the amount of risk and investment that these activities require. Simply put, for an activity to make sense in the context of the universe, the payouts for it should be easily in excess of the amount of...

Just tossing out some suggestions to revamp payouts and add depth to different career pathways. Trade Bonuses Consistent, quick deliveries yields a small bonus for reliability, potential for scaling based on local rep and level of danger. A players "reliability" could be tracked on the...

I've seen a lot of different lists, charts, tables, and infographics about how much I can expect to be paid for a given type of stellar body. That's all well and good, and I just made 37 million on my 5k journey to unlock Palin, so I think I'm doing pretty okay... but then I noticed something...
