Lol trade clipper? Trade python? Sure son I'll do that.... And increase the grind by 3x. Basically you're saying we all must sacrifice, to appease the needs of agro players. Play open that's cool. I'll play solo and will continue to tell others to do the same, to fight combat logging and to maybe get FD to see that solo players want PVE and private. How to solve combat logging, easy PVE\private, if players log they're forced to PVE for a period of time, and after being in the friendly PVE environment, they will stay even after their ban, because playing WITH others is far more fun than against others. Look it up the largest player base on PC is MOBIUS. Which is PVE. But telling a player they can't fly a t9 cause there's players aground that are straight agro is just plain ..... I'll leave that out.
Don't log folks!!! Play solo. Join the PVE revolution!!
You have missed my point entirely, and you are treating this game as a grind. If you are already flying around in a T9 I am guessing you have enough millions of cr to afford rebuy and multiple loads of cargo and your argument falls flat.
When I myself get to the credit amount needed for a T9 or tradeconda I will continue to play in open and probably still see no other player as I use trade routes that aren't populated, however if a psycho/pirate does show up I won't baulk at the idea of "omg another player I better only play in solo now!".
This game, which is what it is, a game. Comes with the risk of human aggression, it adds a layer of >difficulty< that isn't found in most pve environments, and when it is found in them is either laughably easy to steamroll or impossibly difficult that you can't avoid. This however offers the best of both, I can steamroll the NPCs or find where I have substantial risk, and that to me was enjoyable. If I do come across some player psycho/pirate archtypes I will enjoy the experience, if it sets me back so what? I have no reason to "combat log" or play in solo because every encounter for good or ill is enjoyable and why I will continue to play this game long after your "grinding mentality" has forced you to burn out of the game.
If I fly without insurance that is my own risk and if I get thrown back into a sidey so be it. I will still be in a better position than a new player as I still have my knowledge of what I enjoy and what I can do to earn my ship back, not by grinding but by enjoying the muti faceted gameplay available to me.
I could be mining, trading, bounty hunting, fighting in a civil war, doing Power Play, running missions for the federation or empire to get promoted in their navies, or find some other players and hang with them doing the above.
The beauty of this game is that it's a massive sandbox with more to do in it than what GTAV ever had to offer (bearing in mind GTA was a massive AAA game with a ton more money thrown at it and cost nearly twice as much for the consumer to purchase), playing with just friends or in free play.
Also to the people in solo play indulging in Power Play, great job, thank you for making what is primarily a pvp opt-in even more barren in terms of open play candidates. I haven't seen a single other player in open doing any powerplay at all.
TL/DR: there isn't one.
