No missions for large landing pad ships

As my thread title says. Corvette and I get one, maybe two assassination missions, if I am lucky that is. So it's log in, do two missions with a long wait and then log out and go play another game while the servers do their RNG rolls. Most of the missions seem to be donation of money or trade item donations. Sucks big time that you reach the end game, as I did last time, and find the only way forward is another reset. I suppose this is intentional on Frontiers side. Keep them playing by making them reset. Thing is, after doing one reset...well...it's time to take a look at no man's sky. Out of pure boredom more than anything else. Nice work on the thargoid community goal by the way: only medium and small landing pads. Great.

I think at the rate I am playing Elite now it will take a year for me to get my fifty two weeks played. On fifty weeks now. Most of the time I am parked in a station waiting for a decent mission. One never shows up so I sit, and I wait, while writing my book. Then I look at the missions. Then I sigh. Then I go back to my writing.

And in case you were wondering why I did not fight the thargoids in my corvette...sigh. I think you know why not. Anaconda or type ten only.

Try other stations or flip the missionboard (alternate between solo and online gamemode).
Missionboard could use work. Being able to filter and get only combat, delivery or trade missions. At least not show missions you can't even do in current ship.
If I have no vehicle hangar, why show skimmer missions? I know why but the likelihood I have another ship in same station is pretty much zero.
 
Massacre Missions, Assassination Missions, Wetwork Missions, Bounty Hunting, Trade...

Flip between modes (Open, PG, Solo) to get new mission spawns. Rinse Repeat.
 
Go to another station. I find missions all the time for all types. Expand you fleet into more variety to do more missions. I own quite a few ships. All purpose built for one reason or another. Surprisingly my Python is my main trade and PP workhorse. My Clipper is my multipurpose Black Box, Planet Scan, Data runner.

My Vette is setup to where I can sit in a Has Res and BH for hours before I need to go back to rearm my PA's. Waiting for the Unicorn missions at one station is just going to drive you nuts.

I have to agree with the other players. Try different stations or switch to open to solo or Group.
 
I am allied with a station and not just with one faction with about six in that station. Why do I get no missions? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???
Do I go to another station, grind up to allied just to get one assassination mission a day? ??? ??? ??? ???
BROKEN!!!!!!!!
Lazy dev team. Not interested in background sim. It's all RNG. There is no consistency. No links. No effect. It all resets to a base balance. Like a rubber band. You push it in one direction and then leave to find the rubber band sprang back to the default start up when you return to it a week later.
Nothing you do has any effect at all.
It's not a sand box. Or if it is the castle you spent all day building yesterday gets pushed flat overnight and you come in the next day to find a new sandbox and all you did previously was lost.
It makes playing the game...meaningless

For sure, flip servers. Open, your own private group, solo, a friend's private group, Mobius private group. That's 5 server flips in my case.

You actually reset your commander and start of from scratch? That is absurd, IMO. Wouldn't it make more sense to maybe try something different for a bit? Using "No Man's Sky" as your 'go to' game is really funny :D
 
What is the state of the system you are in? War,Expansion,Retreat,ect. That matters on what types of missions pop up also.
