Latvian is going to love it then

Mainly, for me it's about the noise the ASP makes. Like a mad bumblebee or some WWII bomber <3

I do like that every spaceship you drive has it's own sound

[Molly]

Haven't bothered with Powerplay yet, so I educated myself...

Those missions are paid tho, right?

[Kafein]

You get periodic cash depending on your merits.

[Molly]

ugh... yea, just watched a different video showing that. Not gonna bother with it.

I've come to the conclussion that most (like 98%) of the mission are fucking horseshit and not worth doing. The pay is minimal, I'm just suffering through because I want a rank in the empire, but bounty hunting missions are so rare around here...

Also, the station I was leaving apparently wanted me to leave fast because instead of releasing my ship it catapulted it at speed of light into the wall of the station, leaving me at 22% hull lol

EDIT: this game is so fucking broken sometimes, apart from missions not being as described half of the time, to local FRIENDLY security fucking interdicting you literally every minute 10 times in a row, to npc ships spinning in place so you can't even interdict them because anything you do it always says 'you need to get behind the target' etc... getting really frustrated here

[Molly]

Start playing Open already...

[Vibe]

I constantly switch between open and solo because they spawn different missions in hopes of actually getting a decent mission

[Molly]

Well, in my experience it is actually worth it to stick to on good system and get the local reputation up.
That will spawn better missions in the long run.
If you check the unobtainable missions, you'll most likely see that most of them don't get offered to you cuz of a reputation issue.
Keep in mind that doing missions can impact negatively on your rank too. Doing missions for a local independent will damage your reputation with the Empire for example.
The reputation system is actually pretty complex.

Apparently they brutally nerfed the few nice missions (smuggling and trade mostly) in 1.5

It just feels random, really. There's a mission that requires no reputation and a low trade rank that pays a million, then you have a trade mission that pays absurdly low amounts but requires you to be a fucking Elite in trading and allied with the faction. Just makes no sense.

Once I'm Baron in Empire i'll gladly drop the missions altogether.

just started this today with my thrustmaster joystick. i like the fact you need to do 10000 things to land, take off and fly around gotta use mouse to look at the consoles and keyboard for a couple of things. seems really cool (only doing tutorials so prolly crash into someone)

Saitek x52 Pro here. Playing with kb/m is decent in this game, having a HOTAS kit does make it more fun though.
