I would say bounty hunting in Pyro (around bloom for me) is even better in terms of payout, per mission it’s 40k and it’s marked as LRT or smth like that, so with any decent fighter you’ll melt them and farm these contracts, i did like 500k in nearly over an hour. And the spots where the targets at are pretty much all nearby so there wasn’t anytime where i had to fly through an atmosphere, it was all in space so that also saved a lot of time for me. Anyways thanks for the insides Foxy, really enjoying your content in the past time, keep it up g💪🏼
550k to put 2 attritions on guardian. Need another 480k to get powerplants, quantum drive, and shield. That is a bit of a PITA. As for bugs, it is a shame that there are no bounty missions in the sun of each system since that is about the only place I can quantum to at the moment.
Not sure if you noticed text in Call to Arms states "Criminals encountered as part of a paid contract word do NOT qualify for the reward" for a little while now. felt this mission should be auto accepted by the game
The mission markers(yellow) are bugged but still there, if you read the mission description and manage to go to the said planet, try looking for the location amongst the available jump points on QT mode, the marker will be blue like the rest of the unmarked POIs but it will be there, after getting close to the mission area the yellow marker will pop up, that being said after finishing the mission the blue mission markers will stay amongst the POIs so watch out if you get another mission on the same planet you don't end up on the last location, hope this somewhat helps.
Let's summarize 4.0: Quantum travel is only possible to the center of the sun, no missions appear, elevators are dead. But the servers are running good it's just useless ...
Before the latest patch for 4.0_Preview I found a way that shows the mission list, even though after the patch it seem to be fixed but here it is: Talk to Patricia in Area 18 unmarked location which is one of the dead end corridors ending behind the TDD, after speaking to her my mission log started to work.
I use a workaround for the jumps not taking me right to the space station . I warp away for the planet and kill the warp right away. then turn back and jump right to the stashion
11:07 I had missions taking 30 minutes to process completion yesterday, but they all did complete. I CTD in between one of those and completion and when I got back in it told me that I had accepted that mission, which I had already technically completed. Then as stated it finally completed like 20 minutes later.
Great tutorial! I have a small question: I got USDT from my friend in my OKX wallet, and I have the seed phrase: (gauge edit vast celery rather hedgehog expire climb bird raccoon industry art). How can I move it to Binance?
For the most part bounty hunting was working alright but I had some really horrible bugs on the first day lol. First time, an enemy missile never fired or anything (no enemy ships yet) seemingly spawned in my ship and exploded . I didn't die, but I had to take out the Aurora enemy starting with a full red hull. THEN it didn't count, even though it was the correct npc named with quest marker over its head. Some kinda bug like this happned 3 times, invisible attackers able to shoot me before they even appear and stuff.. I switched to doing bunkers, they were more difficult I guess but I never died fortunately :P
SC will be going the same way as Elite with this form of mission sharing. 20 people all accept one mission and share it with all the others. They then each complete one mission and get paid for 20 of them
@AW-po7jr everybody starting to do this will have only one possible outcome: another wipe because of a completely broken economy. See how easy it is to cause your own problems? 😂
@@eavdmeerin the last cycle between wipes there were a lot of exploits that generated basically unlimited auec. At some point 1 Million Auec was 10 Cent on EBay. Guess what didn’t happen? A full wipe. So don’t expect a wipe because of this minor money „exploit“. As far as I know CIG never wiped because of money exploit but database issues.
It's a mixture of no contracts and no ability to realiably QT at the moment, there's always 3.24 until the devs are back from holiday. Has anyone had a chance to look at cargo from VHRT and up yet?
@@MerlinCH65 Im on the USA servers. I'm up to HRTs currently, with contracts appearing without issue. I get 40+ hauling contracts, pvp+pve bounties and merc bunkers
My buddy and I were cranking out some beacons before contracts stopped. Was nice money at 50k per and it only took a few minutes in a connie to complete.
Tried Bounty hunting, for some reason I can´t hit anything with missiles. And since yesterday no missions available whatsoever. Over the time it got even worse, no ship spawning, no global chat, no jump to or from Pyro......
Umm i think the payments you posted is not correct. The first mission is have is 151k and I didn't do them because I was afraid I would be fighting an Idirs. So the evaluation mission was 151k and 51k respectively
Looks like the game is in a rough spot right now. Missions are broken, black screens, no markers, and quantum jump issues-it’s just unplayable. Hopefully, the next patch drops soon and fixes all of this. For now, I’m stuck waiting like everyone else.
for me: No Missions and no Money (They wiped even the starter money). I think cig wants you to go to Pyro an become a PK, because thats the only action you`ll become.
Uhm shared payouts that is not spil is 100% exploitable, with or without reputation blocks. That is insanely stupid. Either they need to split payouts, or they need to add some kind of participation check. Otherwise it completely breaks any semblance of an economy. People in the long run will just bot, share the low level missions with a ton of accounts and then send the payouts to the main account. And yes bots are not allowed yada yada, there has yet to be an MMO that has completely blocked bots from being used.
What are you talking about, Live it's still available, and 4.0 is purely optional. Who played for about 9 hours yesterday for the most part it was a pretty good experience.
Positives, d sync vs players gone for the most part. Sever is so smooth & beautiful. hanger spawning & bed logging works great. Death markers show up no problem Npcs air combat & fps are very reactive
I really hope CIG has seen cowboy bebop. Please give us a quirky bounty hunting TV show like in that anime. If you have not seen the show wtf are you doing.
Doing just a few h of bounties in pyro nets a lot of money. The low level ones pay 50+ k for 5 min of flight time plus an easy fight. About 1 mil per hour easy if bugs do not get in your way.
No one:
Nobody anywhere:
Foxy: seventeen THAAUUWWW-sand
Sad state of affairs. I was just going to log in to do some hauling but after seeing this, naah I'll give it a couple of days. Thanks.
I only have a sample size of one here, but on Friday, a group of us did the intro hauling mission in Pyro. The payout was something like 40k (iirc), and we _all_ got that full amount.
Good to hear!
They sold us a plan for a grand cake. They delivered a stale cookie. The cake is a lie.
I ordered spare keyboard from Amazon today. Thanks for sharing, but we all are feeling the pain in every mode of play.
we need a daily server (clean) reset so when a server crashes it doesn't go over to the next server. and the next. etc.

If the sharing stays, this will be great. It’ll actually make people want to BH together.
You're a beast foxy, thanks for all your hard work!
Thanks for confirming and answering many of the questions I had Foxy! I thought I had an account bound problem!

Very useful vid, thanks!
The contracts worked again a few hours ago. Been doing cargo hauling (Zeus CL) and that is doing good on the money too with 45-50K per 15m haul.
Fun fact you can QT away from the target go back and the AI stops moving and is a free kill. Got ERTS super fast
I use a workaround for the jumps not taking me right to the space station . I warp away for the planet and kill the warp right away. then turn back and jump right to the stashion
The old benefit for BHing in ArcCorp too is you use to be able to use it to get rep in Orison, but not sure if it still works that way
If the pattern continues of pay per rank, it looks like the new ERT and old ERT are around the same payout.

I CTD in between one of those and completion and when I got back in it told me that I had accepted that mission, which I had already technically completed.

And when you get a bounty on an armistice zone, the enemy ships don't take damage, and they (obviously) don't want to leave the armistice xD
Great tutorial! I have a small question: I got USDT from my friend in my OKX wallet, and I have the seed phrase: (gauge edit vast celery rather hedgehog expire climb bird raccoon industry art). How can I move it to Binance?
When you explained the sharing in group missions, does that count for the bunker missions too ? Or is it just bounty missions only ?
all missions

The CS3/MRT payout appears to be a mistake, I imagine it's supposed to be 31k. I expect we'll see that corrected in the future.
SC will be going the same way as Elite with this form of mission sharing. 20 people all accept one mission and share it with all the others. They then each complete one mission and get paid for 20 of them
Let’s do it! Cost of living has skyrocket and I want my ships back I lost with the wipe

@@eavdmeerjust because you can, doesn’t mean you should
@@velocitymg I won't, but we both know that many people will. This will result in aUAC farming using bot networks to sell it on ebay

Contracts do appear, remember that servers have dozens or hundreds of people trying to run the same missions.
The hotfix yesterday fixed the contracts being blank.
Right when I open youtube... Nice timing!
Is there still valuable cargo on the targets? Egg prices got nerfed, but it could still add a significant amount to the pay.
I had to fly 900km to Seraphim station because of this bug...
At least you can get to your own hangar. The elevator just sits there and doesn't move.
how to fight bug missions, like in Helldivers
Just saying contracts are not appearing again. Can't do anything until that gets fixed
ya I logged in just to not have contracts working on any regional server i tried, boo!
Yea - I wonder on what servers YT'ers are playing. Over here nothing works AT ALL. Nothing. Like really nothing.
@@MerlinCH65 everything but the contracts works for me at least for now. They really wanted this out by Christmas lol
@@MerlinCH65 Im on the USA servers. I'm up to HRTs currently, with contracts appearing without issue. I get 40+ hauling contracts, pvp+pve bounties and merc bunkers
Works fine here on both US and EU servers
It’s funny hearing all this while I got paid 50k just to move 10 boxes to start cargo
My buddy and I were cranking out some beacons before contracts stopped. Was nice money at 50k per and it only took a few minutes in a connie to complete.
Had a bh mission and the AI was stuck in an armistace zone
Happened to me twice
how about vaughn? any changes?
I am taking the bounties in pyro, they are very easy and pay 40k a contract plus the reputation for pyro
Missing the most annoying bug: BH target spawning next to an armisticed outpost and being immune to damage.
Po2 is great right now, ill come back for pyro after the holidays
Tried Bounty hunting, for some reason I can´t hit anything with missiles. And since yesterday no missions available whatsoever. Over the time it got even worse, no ship spawning, no global chat, no jump to or from Pyro......
My Qt drops out 800-900km from seraphim....
ja its been a bit rough with quantum randomly breaking for sure
Mission system is back?
"Feels like real life" sounds like they nailed the economy balance?
Umm i think the payments you posted is not correct. The first mission is have is 151k and I didn't do them because I was afraid I would be fighting an Idirs. So the evaluation mission was 151k and 51k respectively
Crusaders pays 62k for VHRT’s too gotta grind today for ERT’s
how can you get rid of the QR code on the top right conner?
Graphic settings last point
Does anyone know if CIG has fixed the New Babbage hanger bug in 4.0?
No
Try headhunters missions in Pyro i got 1mil in around 4hours just chilling there
That’s cuz everyone is in crusader’s. Check you sever population if it’s over 80 start thinking about trying to find another server
Looks like the game is in a rough spot right now. Missions are broken, black screens, no markers, and quantum jump issues-it’s just unplayable. Hopefully, the next patch drops soon and fixes all of this. For now, I’m stuck waiting like everyone else.
U Guys have missions?^^
You choose. working QT or working mission
for me: No Missions and no Money (They wiped even the starter money). I think cig wants you to go to Pyro an become a PK, because thats the only action you`ll become.
Did not know about the sharing 'feature'. Tx Foxy. o7
29k for MRT in Crusader
No missions work or even show up in mobiglass most of the time
No contracts? -.^
Only stable way to get money is mining or salv panels lol 😅 the missions are all bugged even vaugh missions
CONTRACTS ARE BUGGED OUT... SO HOW THE HELL ARE PEOPLE GETTING ACCESS TO THEM?
Great
I only have old system still with added mercenary missions hidden in with them. A compleat fucked up 4.0
i see 0 missions... none, nada...
no missions available so went mining :(
I would do a few bountys if the game wasn´t bugged as hell ... no contracts again, can´t jump again -.-

ArcCorp sending the army out against C/S1 NPCs?? Don't hit someone's Aurora with your Urza Rover...

First time?

hanger spawning & bed logging works great.
Death markers show up no problem
Npcs air combat & fps are very reactive
If only Contracts worked.
First step find a bounty contract and click accept.
😂OPS
No video criticizing the state in which 4.0_preview was left running?
At Microtech, jumping from NB to PT, you will end up 730km away from Port Tressler... alpha??? Alpha queue Cloud Imperium Goons.
I have the toughest keyboard ever!
I really hope CIG has seen cowboy bebop. Please give us a quirky bounty hunting TV show like in that anime. If you have not seen the show wtf are you doing.
Pisses me off they are forcing us to play with multiple people, otherwise you will never get ahead in the game! That is total BS!
HOW YOU HAVE 5.5 MILLION AUEC ALREADY ?
Doing just a few h of bounties in pyro nets a lot of money. The low level ones pay 50+ k for 5 min of flight time plus an easy fight. About 1 mil per hour easy if bugs do not get in your way.
Triple the payouts and item prices, and we are done. - balance team at cig 🤡
Doesnt work
Always helpful more so than cig and their utter garbage quality control
This patch is unplayable. Runs smooth, more bugs than 3.3.
if you're new don't buy star citizen, it's a griefers paradise.
what version are you playing? the game is BUSTED & BROKEN 😂
No worth it IMO. Right now I am doing bunkers in NB, and I am getting 55k per bunker.
