on the release of ED there wasn't much so FD thought, make trading lucrative. make ammo cheap and make it hard to die. now there is community goals. we'll nerf everything so they are forced to Do the community goals, and we'll make it seem like they have made something for the game. here I thought you could blaze your own trail. nope all the trail signs say this way to community goals.
few days have pasted since the trade nerf and...

I have a pretty good route that is along way from core systems, right at the edge of explored space.
Originally I was one of about 2 or 3 traders. Since the "nerf" though it is starting to get a lot more traffic.
I suspect a lot of traders have been searching around and have found it.
It might not survive much longer if many more traders find it.

tell me do you have an anaconda? or a t-9?
there was no "handouts" in the first place. it would take about 300 hours to grind to anaconda. what handouts are you talking about here?
anyways with very expensive fuel costs and maintenance bills you cant really afford to be flying around looking for routes for 80% of the time and just doing routes 20% of the time....
there is a bulk tax fee that gets attached to people that basically own a t-9 and a anaconda and it drops youre profits from 1500 per unit roundtrip to about 800 round trip. this is all done in ONE run.
that means you are just looking and looking the whole time. there is no such thing as a "good route" anymore with a t-9 or anaconda they all eventually suck.
this means youre going to devolp a phobia of other players when trading since other player = profit loss.
i would like to see other people and not worry about it. i would also like a trade run to last more than 3 hours. not just one run (5 min)
again as i stated before having a dynamic trade route is not a problem the problem is its very unbalanced once you own a anaconda or t-9. there is no logical way of making money. i have tried everything.
