Hello Development Team.

I farmed and grind now for 3 to 4 month to buy my Anaconda, selled explorer for that.
I shot down at a start port, while i tryed to land at station and got shot down.
I had not enough money to rebuy ship and had no other ship to sell and money. So i lost Anaconda.
Seems there was a bug with a mission, but support gave me anaconda back. Thx a lot for that. But Engines was broken and i had not mats to repair after restore and Anaconda falle down on planet and i crashed Again !

So David Braben for Season 3, You should make a new Ship insurance, thats very important to loose not everything you played for into this game. Monthly coast or Ship insurance you can make a contract with at the station.

I played single player and never fight, because for some peope who have a real life or have to work have not som much time to play 16 hours a day on this game only 1 hour a day and at weekend longer.


For new players buying this game a better or advanced Ship insurance in season 3 would help them a lot.

i played solo and shot down while i tried to land, and i was a bug it seems.

If you have tons of credits its nice, but i welcome to see an advanced ship insurance.

So they can fix that in season 3 very easy. Also support helped me, so thats awesome.

If you have no rank in dogfight, you get less money for ship insurance if i understand that right, and why you can not get/take a credit when you die and have no money ?

Should easy to make for developers in my opinion, and new content will come next year.

Remember the 3 main rules
Rule 1: Never fly without a rebuy!!!
Rule 2: Never fly without a rebuy!!!
Rule 3: Never ever ever buy a ship if you can't affor the rebuy.

If the ship cost is 50 mil and the rebuy is 10 mil don't buy it until you have at least 70 mil!
Best Choice is also never considering to sell your actual ship.

I have a family too and I play probably 5-6 hours per week (when I'm lucky), and this is the fleet I grinded in 3 years:
Anaconda, Beluga, Phyton, ASP X, Eagle (for fun) and Sidewinder (my first ship).
So it's better to wait a little bit more but be well economically covered!

I have a welcome spiel that I post when I see a new Player on the forum (somebody who only has a few hours in the Game). It covers the REBUY. Here is the relevant paragraph;

"Now, Golden Rule 1, which is; Never Fly if you cannot cover the REBUY. REBUY is the insurance excess on your ship, and is 5% of the value of your ship (including all upgrades, but not the cargo). Any changes you make to a ship will affect the REBUY. You can see what your REBUY is on the Status screen (normally accessed by pressing key 4 when in cockpit view, although I do not know how to access the Status screen on a console), bottom left, below Balance. If you get killed, and you can cover the REBUY, you will get a replacement ship identical to the one you lost (although the cargo bay will be empty). However, if you cannot cover the REBUY you may well end up back in a basic Sidewinder. Please do not let this happen to you, as the forum is littered with tales of woe when other Players have ignored Rule 1, and then got killed. This links to the latest I have seen;

I may well change the link.

Dont fly a conda if you can not buy it back 2-3x. Not the game's fault you can't fly and have no money to drive the conda.
