SOTHIS/CEOS 2.2

Logged off at Sothis before the 2.2 update with 660 tonnes worth of mission cargo worth 65 million or so. Just logged back on, find that all my mission were wiped, 660 tonnes of poop in my cargo and I can't even open the commodity market to at least get some lousy credits for it.

Check the mission board, no luck. Switch modes until they appear. And this is what I see.

Boom Time Delivery of 132 units of Biowaste (428,27LY)
1,913,316

Boom Time Delivery of 24 units of Biowaste (428,27LY)
1,135,587

Boom Time Delivery of 132 units of Hydrogen Fuel (428,27LY)
1,919,520

do people these days really think 5 millions is not worth anything?

It's not horrible money so long as the missions are constantly there. If you could dock, fill up your hold and head right back out, a round trip can take less than an hour so it's about 5m an hour or so. Not great money though, given you'd need at least an Anaconda to do it quickly enough and have the space for it.

A good ABA route will trash that. So would a good HazRES.

So it's sort of viable but not really worth it given the investment of time.
 
Grabbing lifeboat now, as the sea of tears will be rough! :D

I believe most people already made their money and were just padding their wallets at this point. New players won't be able to look back on Sothis/Ceos so they won't have a comparison and everyone else is just going to switch over to the next quickest way of earning credits.

We all knew the nerf was coming. It's not like they haven't nerfed the outlying station missions before.
 
Naitis skimmer missions gents.....40 million odd every 45-60 mins.
im wondering if thats still up...im currently docked there so once download is done ill see if thats been nerfed too....ill post once i know.
 
Maby nerfed it a Little to much, but for a Cobra or asp you could maby get 3-7 millions, with lots of missions loading you can do it in 1-2h. With those Ships if i am not remember ut wrong its pretty ok pay.

The Big problem is how easy ut is to get money when you start. Started a new commander a couple of weaks ägo, and at the start it was no problem to find 60-75k basic delivery missions. You get a cobra in a few hours.
 
So what were those sort of money were those missions paying in 2.1?

Doesn't look so bad to me, Looks like I could easily fill my cutter with 15 missions paying 1-2 million, all in looks like 10-15 million an hour. Similar to trading.

I'm glad they balanced it.

Awaits next gold rush...
 
cool, now these are a bit more balanced i think i may actually start doing them. Hauling crap and making more money doing it than trading high value goods always felt lame to me. :)

am all for high paying missions but they need to pop up randomly all over the place, so not farmable imo, and need to be high risk high reward.

once FD can pull that off imo the game will be much better for it.
