Reward vs time

[Crank Larson]

There is concern when your rebuy is 40m+ and they're asking us to do missions that pay pittance.

Nice try. No-one is asking you to do missions that pay pittance, they are simply available - as are missions that pay ludicrously over the top. A 40m+ rebuy is not concerning in the slightest. You can make that in less than an hour.

yeah but then a power plant in original elite didn't cost 160 million credits did it.?

You should try playing the original ELITE then, i remember you could get just 1 credit and very often it was 10. There is absolutely no need to be concerned about rewards in ED.

Why reward? It even tells in the title - for the fun of it!

In other words, it's a mission that clutters up an already overly-constricted mission board just for the "lol@you" factor.

Sorry for being a grouch, but the mission board isn't really adequate for the state of the game as it is today. Hopefully wing missions give larger ships something they can actually do that's worth their time without grinding or manipulating the board, but missions like this taking up valuable board slots is Not Helping.
