Add “BUY” fiction to Material Trader

They should just allow you to also pay a crap ton of CRedits and just BUY the materials they have to offer. The trade ration is already ABSOLUTE GARBAGE, At List Give Us This!!!!
How Agrees With Me?

Anyway how many before said it and it never happened and never will, just another disgrunted player after weeks of mat grinding got their toys and now got bored but can't face another grind to build something else.
 
Well who is going to offer a front end for that stupid SRV scanner so it actually makes sense?
I just spent 2 HOURS searching for Germanium, lots of signals that dissapear as you get closer or turn out to be some cargo containers with skimmers guarding it.

The ONLY 2 nodes I actually managed to find in all that time had nothing but iron, nickel and carbon in them. This was a planet that had 5.5% Germanium.
If I can't buy it, I'm just wasting my time playing hte game because I can't progress at all, I need Germanium for FSD boost and upgrades.
Don't give me that e about resource sites on planets, I've scanned planet after planet and never found one.

A total waste of my time. It's beginning to get to the stage where this game is a total waste of time.

Germanium can be found in all of these, but those two on the left have quite low probability.

As long as there is premium ammo synthesis, I am going to be a hard no to buying mats or mat trading with other players. There are too many players with nothing to spend their billions, and billions on. Let them grind if they want to use premium ammo. LET THEM GRIIIIIINNNND!!!!

If, instead of ranting, you had posted where you are now, you'd have your Germanium by now.

I reckon you're looking at a body in the system map and seeing that the breakdown of the materials to be found on it, in this case it told you 5.5% Germanium. Then what you're doing is landing on the planet and driving around, following the signals on your SRV scanner, this is why it is leading you to things like canisters guarded by skimmers.

Here's what you do.

FSS the system, it will tell you the same information, this body has X amount of carbon, sulphur, rocking horse poo, and then it will tell you, in the upper right hand corner how many POI's are on that planet. So then you fly over to that planet, and use a DSS, fire some probes at it and it will tell you, once you hit 100% where the geological sites are. They show up in your nav panel or as locations on the planet surface. Now you can fly directly to the site where you will find numerous chances to collect numerous materials.

Lets say that you land at one of these sites and you still only pick up a few Germanium samples, well you would also have picked up a load of different ones too, maybe carbon, sulphur or rocking horse poo.You can take those materials to the Material trader (you have to find the correct one, search the forums) and you can trade the materials you don't use for the ones you want.

No.

And I have already explained, you should be farming the volcanic sites on Deciat 2 not wandering around the planet blindly because you can't work out how the scanner works, that's what they are for, concentrated mineral deposits! It says it in the description!
