Fix the logs, or the Spawns, but ED is too random and TOO MUCH GRIND

I have been playing for months,
I have tried everything, mining (Complete garbage), Exploring(Done well but no money in it) Bounty hunting(Was consistent, 1.3 is not), Smuggling(Cargo scoop mini game), and Trading (SPACE TRUCKING)
This random bull of instances being reset for HOURS to get a good one is a waste of time.
This game is not complete its BETA at best, bugs, each patch breaks tons of other things, and the TIERS I.e, careers are not close to even, I was using the Logs to gather data. But the was now changed.
I don't think this game is worth playing.When the Repairs were broken it was unplayable.

Logs had useful data, YES people where expoliting it, but what damage does that do? Smart people make more money than dumb people? Huh sounds REALISTIC TO ME!

Didn't know anything about logs, but I know that res hunting is very Boring now. And yes, the res sites were one of the most FUN parts of the game.....

Lol.... I can't exploit the game any more.... I think I don't want to play ED anymore...:p

Goodbye.. I think its the right choice for you... More and more exploits and cheats are made impossible by FD.
Get out now, it will only get worse.

Leave ED to stupid ppl like me who are to dumb to find exploits let alone use them.

Wow not only you cheat, but you have the nerve to accuse FD because they plugged the hole and break your game? I have to admit the self entitlement with this one is too strong.

EDIT: on a side note if is grind you're doing wrong. Try new missions (hint kill missions are pretty good), try powerplay and undermine in an enemy system (also get some pvp on the way), explore trade routes and destroy traders etc etc. RES sites i runned when i started the game in sidewinder, then when i hoped in viper i started to run kill missions (even with bugs from 1.2 missions was way more funny).

You can make a decent amount of money exploring, your just not doing it right
-
Bounty hunting is still very profitable, just take a KWS and go after CMDRs as a lot of them become wanted for undermining and their bounties will be in the millions
-
Or just go and do strong signal sources they are very profitable still
-
And you admit to exploiting, all respect lost
 
I would try to stop you, as i have many before, but i really don't have the energy for it anyway. if you can't find any fun on your own, then i guess it is goodbye.
 
Hmm.. I have to agree at least partially.
Would also like things to be a bit less random / some more persistance because it makes the game world less realistic and believable imo.
-
Things should be random of course, but now it's indeed too much.
Go into an RES site and it's crowded.
Leave, immediately go back and.. heh? where are the ships?
-
Same if players are not in the same instance.
"Hey mate, this res site has lots of ships."
Other player goes to res site.
"Uh, what do you mean? there's nothing here!"
-
Instead of being fully random per instance, it would have been more realistic if it was some global random value for all instances.
It could then change slowly over time and/or add random spikes as if a new fleet of ai's just arrived or whatever.
But that would probably require a huge amount of data storage, keeping track of ALL res sites might simply be too much unless that can also be solved with some procedural generation.
