I am using Cobra with 40 cargo slots.
I spend 10 - 15 mins cruising between several stations, then I jump just over 220Ly. I arrive at the destination, sell, drive around a few more local stations, jump back and sell again. After one round trip I have earned over 1 million credits.
How much easier do you think it needs to be?
Hmm less likely to be easier.
More likely to have a few more options to give money like that.
Right now the Rare Goods are basiscly netting in like 4-10 times any other method in this Game does.
They need to implement alot more options which increase money in exchange for risk etc.
For example.
Some areas have high demand for goods which take like 5-6 Jumps to get.
But thay pay the same as the stations which are right next to the station which sells this stuff.
So why should I fly 5-6 Jumps and sell it to them ?
An easy fix to that would be to increase the Price Range.
So an Station which had High Demand on something will at some point increase the prices for that goods even beyond what it normally gives on high demand in order to actually receive these Goods by paying more than other stations with high Demand.
Another thing would be to include the Selling of Weapons and Equipment.
Which would increase the Commodity Possibilitys by an good number of very expensive Items which would then allow for high lvl trades once you some money.
Of course it would make sense that depending on the lvl of the Weapon or Module it will take up considerable more space inside your cargo haul.
For example going by the cargo holds.
lvl 1 = 2 tons
lvl 2 = 4 tons
lvl 3 = 8 tons etc
That way high lvl traders could haul stuff like A Grad lvl 4 Shield Generators from High Tech Systems towards Border Systems with Shipyards.
Same on the Combat side
We need far more Missions which directly involve Attacking an Faction
As well Missions which actually pit you against higher lvl enemys which are actually dangerous.
There could even be Missions to Destroy an Space Dock from another Faction in the Border Systems or at least Assault it reducing its current lvl by destroying certain parts of it.
These Missions would yield alot of Money but of course wont be easy since theres alot of Security on some Stations.
Not to mention that you.ll get an considerable bounty on your head when doing this
Theres alot of Possibilitys here
Fact is we need more options which Yield similar Money to these Rare Trades
