For how much it was sold there before this whole mining update was implemented?
I have no Idea, but in the last month or so activity in the extreme south intensified thanks to the high sell price of the silver ore.
I´m asking because I think (but I´m not sure) there was not any selling point at all before. So while I understand that lowering the price won´t make people happy, I would avoid suggesting it is discouraging piracy, because it is still 8,5k credits better selling point that it was before the update. Especially when it´s only four jumps through quite safe space from the piracy source spot in O-7/O-3.
I think you misread what I said, so here we go again: I'm not saying it is discouraging piracy. I'm saying that the high price was bringing a much needed activity boost to the unlawful factions in that area, mainly corsairs and hessians, which are struggling anyway. I appreciate the dev's intention of adding those sell points to bring activity up and I was happy to see it actually worked. However, in the last couple of hours two people contacted me on skype asking if I wanna buy two corsair transports and when I asked about why they are selling them I was told the selling price was lowered.
Luckily for us down there we got used to being ignored a long time ago and that this wasn't my main concern and I only posted it as a PS to the main problem, which is things being done silently, without a single line of text.
I am not asking for explanations as to why it was done, I am not asking to reverse it or to make any changes at all, I trust the devs to do what's best for the sever. All I want is for the dev team to announce this kind of changes, nothing more
