Tip for new players - 500k-1M credits /hour [Easy - Sidewinder friendly]
Hey Everyone,
Having owned the game on PC i thought i post a little guide to earn some Credits to get your first multi-purpose ship.
The goal is to get a Cobra MKIII, this is the most versatile starting ship in my opinion, you can trade, Fight, Pirate and Explore in this ship.
Lets go 'help' out the feds in our death machine and collect some bounties! Steps below:
Start the regular commander, not a horizons commander (you still have the DLC so don't worry about missing anything)
1)Do starting mission to make 10k Cr
2)Go to kremainn, you can search systems by using the search field. (bookmark it while you're at it)
3)Go to Wohler Terminal
4)Dock so it saves your respawn
5)Exit Dock
6) Go to the high resource extraction site real close
7) Wait for Federal Navy ships to attack a bandit
8) 'help out' in your sidey
9) Earn 1m cr in 30 min to an hour. (depending on luck, not dying and your skill)
10) Buy a Cobra MKIII at Wohler
11) See what you can buy here, if a better FSD is in stock get it.
12) Outfit at a high tech system (Galaxy map, hit R1 a few times, Filter on economy, disable all non high tech colors, find a high population one and off you go.
13) Remember to keep some Cr for rebuy.
14) Go back to Kremainn > Wohler Terminal if more money is needed. (or you want to save up for say an ASP Scout @ 3m Cr)
Still not sure? Watch me do it: https://youtu.be/diaUPdEfwKM (sort of, i didn't wait for the feds to attack first)
Now you can pretty much do anything apart from large volume trading, Soloing entire fleets and passenger missions. You could also explore with it, but i'd recommend getting one of the diamond back vessels or an ASP for that.
If you want you can Friendlist me (original_bars) and i'll show you how to make some money. If you have any question just reply here and i'll try to answer them.
PS: Gimballed multi-cannons in your medium slots and Gimballed Pulse or Burst lasers in your small hardpoints are a great starter weapon setup for the Cobra MKIII (laser shields, Cannons Hull)
