I say, by the way the numbers were raising yesterday for the Hudson's CG, people had a really good time

The devs are completely clueless how their CG works and how the numbers add up. Thats all there is to it. 4 billion for relogging. 20k for scanning a new lifeform. When FD balances its not by a few percentages off, there aren't even remotely the correct number of digits. I have honestly never, ever seen it be this comically off, ever in my three decades of gaming. Not even the cheapest 90s shovelware has ever been this weird. Its like its literally just randomized.
Oh well.
Yeah, here people made billions. In PP you get 50mil.I still regard loading a single 752t T9 with PP merits as infinitely more idiotic than unloading the same amount of materials at the CG
Loading 10000 merits to get PP Rank 5 (in a single week)...

Not to worry, I paid for super Deluxe Alpha membership and have a direct line with David as a result.
He agrees with me, by the way.

8 billion in the end, plus whatever the second CG of the exact same nature comes in at. But yeah. We're still due some exploration re-balancing, right - everything multiplied by 4 sound about right?
I don't think I ever went over 10bn in total assets, and I'm playing for ages and don't actively PvP. Now achievable over the course of a couple of days. /this_is_fine.jpg
I'd be somewhat surprised though if the payouts for plant scans make it into the live game unchanged. Mind you, I just remember by how much the Codex rewards got buffed.

I stopped relogging early this morning when I finished my contribution to the Winters CG so don't blame me.
Want me to ask Frontier to get it sorted?
Great.. so real life responsibilities prevented me from playing for a couple weeks and I finally have time to login and check and I missed out on the biggest CG ever. This is just like when I missed the mining boom, took me a year to grind enough credits for a FC because I didn't have the benefit of the egg. Even if managed top 50% on this it would have covered my carrier upkeep for years! But no... now I am punished for my lack of dedication to the game.
Now, since you mentioned it... i have not encountered a single Orange Sidewinder during this CG. Not on PC and not on XB
And both Hip12099 and the Hudson/Winters systems were littered with Carriers... no idea why since carriers were absolutely useless in this CG
Please!
Meanwhile, I'm logging on to go get 4bn credits to spend on weapons in Odyssey.
I want to promise everyone here that if and when I get a carrier i'll never once take it to a CG system even the ones where it might be useful.
Edit: @frontier stop Commanders relogging or something I dunno.
All I can say is this boggles that is really true. Frontier actually high lights their awful game play mechanic of do three scans and log out and back three times. You would think they would want to hide that from people. Amazing.
Perhaps its a last hurrah for relogging because they have an uber secret plan to remove it come Odyssey.
Imagine a world where gathering mats takes months if not years.

What are you going to do, declare war on the Andromeda galaxy?
In protest against the allegedly stupid amounts of credits to be earned in the current CGs I refused to take part in them - so there! 
(Truth be told, in common with most CGs, it didn't engage my interest in the least)
