You can make money by bounty hunting

Oh the irony. A higher priced ship is better at making money, problem is people are discussing the grind you have to undertake to get there.

That grind has increased with every update as certain lucrative ways of making money have been nerfed. Braben has stated that all professions should have parity, that could mean they nerf trading. If they do just wait for the screams.

The solution to all of this is to implement interesting content with good rewards. They call also use rankings and reputation have an effect on prices and availability.

263000 credits in a fifteen minute nav point hunt, that's about a million an hour if you take landing for reloads into account. My cute little vulture is paying for itself.

Nevermind. 263,000 Cr every 15 minutes is barely 1,000,000 Cr/hr. Nothing new. Besides the point you did that at a NAV site, that is. Looks like you got lucky. Average out your income over a few hours, and your average will be much less.

Completely edited out my original comment.
