    Already seeing how people will camp those for hours, trying to snatch some free boxes. When there was no cargo elevators, it was semi-safe, but now you have to buy - load by hand - travel - unload by hand - sell solo all in unmonitored pirate areas, and what do u get? - 4.5k profit per scu??? This is a joke at this point....
    4.0 is gonna be Hell of a Grind....

      4k profit per Scu is not bad if you have a full C2. I've done this with a small fleet, after stocking up over time in the outpost, close to 750k for each of us. Got some fun fights in for my fighter support too. It's honestly a blast and I love this gameplay, it's not all about the money. It's not the best money trading these, but it sure is exciting and if you can do it solo if you're lucky, it's Bank.

  • @Cain3697
    @Cain3697 Місяць тому +3

    A really cool gameplay loop, but the risk is just too high. You lose just one shipment and you are back 4x that. Server stability affects everyone, but those hauling their own cargo stand to lose the most by far. Given the state of the game, I wish they'd make cargo a part of your ship that could be respawned as long as you weren't in combat when your ship was destroyed.
    If I'm hauling cargo I should fear pirates more than bugs.

    Everyone whining about not being able to make millions in a day anymore are missing the point. The goal is to have moving from a starter ship to something like a Cutty take a solo player WEEKS. The progression from Starter to a ship like a Hammerhead or Carrack should take months or even a year, not be something you can bang out in a few days. You should have to ACTUALLY EARN it with effort and (most importantly) time.
    The economy and pricing in the game until recently has been very Alpha. It's only been so easy to earn millions and buy every ship because they need us to be able to do so in order to test them. That is changing. It was always going to change. Not only are we going to be making less money per loop, but I expect ship prices to increase DRASTICALLY by full release. Like, "add a zero to the end of each price". Which is how it should be.

    Gotta be honest, I'm not really exited for the new patch. I'll tell you why...
    12 SCU of eggs is 1.3 million now, so they nerfed it 5x.
    Ingame ships are getting more and more expensive.
    4.0 is said to have full wipe, so all my cca 200 300 hours of buying stuff ingame is gone.
    4.0 is not the last wipe - they can squeeze a couple more before "1.0" for which we don't even have a date.
    So when you meet me ingame in 2-5 years from now - I will still have the same starter ship and will have to grind who knows how much by then.

    • @MrTree421
      @MrTree421 Місяць тому +2

      Most people are excited exactly for that. Progression in SC is centered around ingame currency. Balancing that currency is incredibly important because of that. The wipes are getting way less frequent so I don't see it as a big issue at all. Sure easy money jobs got nerfed. As they should you shouldn't be able to get millions of aUEC in an hour. Infact they just(last month) spent an entire presentation on progression being a long term thing. Which is why the wipe comes with these economy balance changes. These make sense with the longer time between wipes we are seeing. It used to be every patch then every few. Now it's been a year between patches. So in 2-5 years yes you might be in the same starter ship again. But as a coincidence. Personally I expect the next one in 2026 so about 2 years and then maybe one more before launch wipe. I don't see how that would make it less interesting to play.
