So a bit of background
.
I started playing on release - I'm happy to take a risk so I would often travel with full cargo before insurance. After a couple of months of heavy play including over the xmas holiday I was in the "cow" Now my play had been make money, money, money as soon as I had about 10000 cr more than the next ship id buuy that and move on to me a bigger ship was more important than anything I didn't care that I could make 170000Cr in my 100T ship I would buy the next ship have 80T basic cargo and have about 10T of cargo to fill and spend two or 3 days getting to full cargo. the only upgrades id buy was FSD to get me shorter jumps
.
Anyway in the cow not enough insurance, hull at 15% 10 jumps when I could do it in 2 in my old ship fuel scooping take damage on 3rd jump canopy explodes 5 min to safety (my choice I take the risk I want no sympathy)
.
Again the press on itis hits and I jump forward the 7 jumps instead on backward 3 to get to a space station for repairs
.
Basically every risk I could take I did every chance I hoped would work, I tried to line up all the holes in the cheese for a successful flight and failed
.
so I ended up with my stripped down cobra 200LY from my new shiny sidewinder
.
Now this is where I am doing wrong I didn't rage quit I cleared save and started again
.
I went to a nav beacon my first time ever and got into fights I got cargo and snuck into stations, I didn't buy a hauler I pimped up my sidewinder |I went back and kept fighting. A Cmdr fought me unprovoked at a beacon and (As usual) my hull was at 35% so as soon as my shields were down I died. I just reboiught my (cheap) well equipped sidewinder and went back - found him got behind and in a good position and waster him right back
.
I found that even pimped my sidewinder was limited and I wanted to move to an old hunting ground I sold my sidewinder and now found I had MONEY I could pimp up my adder and get good range on it
.
I went and got me a cobra and now Im pimping that up
.
My style has changed Im having more fun having the biggest ship and the most money didn't seem important having a smaller well equipped ship is fun and opens up more styles of play
.
What is up with me - Am I in a group of 1 that has dies through stupidity not rage quitted and left behind 2 months of play to start again and am enjoying it more than ever???
