It would be really nice if:
Yes, like the Fleet Carrier that is an overpriced inventory
No, because the maximum travel range ot APEX is 100ly.
I would like to own a fleet carrier.
No you won't. I for myself don't have one. Our group has one, a friend payed 7-8 billion to buy it and me and the other one payed for the tritium. With three people paying for it it is not a big deal, we got a lot of money during the Void Opal mining rush, so we farmed a lot of Void opals and we sold them for the minimum price to the FC so the one who payed for the FC got some money back and he put the money in the FC to pay the services and the "rent". This "rent" is now payed for some years. If you try this alone you have to make a minimum of 10 bcr. It is hard to say who put what amount into the FC, we did some calculations and the "owner" payed at least 6bcr, and the other two of us 4bcr. There is around 1bcr and a few tons of everything in that money pit now. The weekly costs are around 20mil because of the Services inside. Now we don't use it very often, there are a few ships of us in it but the majority of my fleet is in Shinrarta Dezhra, we mostly use it to fly our Bug-Busters to Thargoid events. At the moment it is parked in Rana because we tested a way to make money we never tried before, the 50mil credit mining rush wing missions. But it is is not as profitable as void opal mining once was, at the last weekend before the launch of EDO we only made around 500 mil each, getting a FC now is another grind you do not want to try, trust me.
Sounds like it. Thanks.
I understand your point, but mining is dead now, Frontier nerfed it into the core of this planet. And I do not like Core mining much, I suffered hard from RNG. Instead of buying a FC I did the Rank grind and bought a lot of ships and engineered them. So I was too busy to make tons of credits.
What are you talking about? I've been RES mining over the past couple of days and have been making money hand over fist.
I do too. Not so much for re-power missions, but for "fetch me a thing" missions are perfect for the taxi. Pick up a bunch transports, do Apex to one at a time, and return with a bunch done. Leaves me free to do other things in the house and have some play-breaks.
I find pickup the weirdest - if I've been a good boy and just done a delivery run it will park 500m away in the middle of nowhere and make me run for it. If I've just done a heist and am being searched for by the whole base it will happily land at the base - and get destroyed by the defences.
Oh, I don't use it much for that kind of stuff.
That happens when an NPC has taken the landing pad.
