A cure for the boring methods of money making... - weylin - 10-26-2007
Admit it, trading is boring.
Going from point "A" to point "B" over and over, accually, regardless of how many destinations there are...
ITS STILL BORING
Sure, you get shot at once in a while by pirates, dodge a few bullets, a few disruptors and you're back on your boring path to making money.
So, why not put another use to the sirius credit cards?
My idea is to put credit cards as loot on many NPC ships, yes, the pilots make good money too, but, to have loot that is equally accepted everyware would be good too.
Now of course you wouldnt put a 10Mil credit card in a cheapie police patriot ship. Infact the smaller ships might not use one at all.
At least place credit cards in the ships in a manner that a person can make money almost as fast as trading (but not quite so as to not make it pointless to do so.) so it is accually a profitable choice of a living, blowing up ships and all.
Though i see one tiny itsy bitsy problem. If a strong killer kills a big ship. what if a newbie tractors in a big credit card before him? But still, they can do that to a pilot too...
What do you say?

Not as far as I know... Id love to see it though... Trading is the only way to make big money and its sooo boring.
Any other methods are just not effective for making cash.

Sorry Weylin, but what a crappy idea. Why not just lower the price of everything instead? How about $1 for a battleship? Sorry mate but if you want the big iron, you're gonna have to "do the time".
As for trading, I'm in full agreement that trading for the sole purpose of making $1,999,999,999 really is very boring. Coz it means doing the same hi-money runs over and over and over and over and over and over. Click, hit F3, click, hit F3, click, hit F3, chew arm off...... But like I said, if you want the big hardware, tough.
Trading can actually be half fun when you don't have the almighty Credit as your boss.

it has been implemented in the beta, Bounty hunter drop credit card and some other faction ship but only the high lvl ones

ummm ok, yea my idea was to do it in a balanced way, not make each ship drop 1mil cards.
And what in the hell makes you think you should have to suffer to make money?
ITS A ****ING GAME. YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE FUN ON GAMES. NOT GO OVER THE SAME CRAP OVER AND OVER RIPPING YOUR HAIR OUT AND GNAWING ON SHARP SHARDS OF GLASS JUST TO REMIND YOURSELF THAT YOUR STILL ALIVE AND THAT YOUR BRAIN HASN'T DETERIORATED TO THE POINT OF NEVER WORKING AGAIN.
