Humanity may be a bunch of stupid, power-hungry and greedy arseholes, but those arseholes deserve a chance to become non-arseholes! Won't quite be possible if they become Thargoid food...

What's a good way to make money towards a fleet carrier
I've been assuming that randomly doing ground conflicts, while fun, isn't going to make much too quick

with a couple friends wing mining and trading missions are very effective, took me 5 nights with a group of 4 running those missions to gather the finds.

btw the mining missions were done by buying the necessary materials rather than actually mining

So, what is the basic loadout for current CG, I did not have a chance to play as a pirate yet.
Looks like fun.
Anybody ?

there are many ship types at the cg combat zones so there is no basic loadout i would say, get well armed and have some fun
you can pick the shisp step by step, in my fights there are mostly one or two opponents i have to deal with at the same time, sometimes three.
but there are many ships on your side and when you got to muched damaged u can thrust away to regain or jump to the next starport for repairs..

If you're taking damage in space CZ then you're doing something terribly wrong...

Thanks Alex,
this game, for some reason, made me very scared of loosing my ship, so I keep away from any combat related activities
my first kill was a drone on a planet surface, boy did it feel good
I know, most of you fighters are scratching your head by now, but for me this was more real than ever (VR had something to do with that)
so going back to my question ,
all I need is a combat ship, a good one, like type 7 and go and find CZ in the CG system
and kill bunch of pirates
no need for hunting down and pulling pirates from hyperspace, right ?

Type 7 is probably a bad choice;
but if you got nothing else, just slap in a good shield, some good weapons and call it a day.
You can easily fly into one of the lower resource mining zones and just steal kills from the local police.
(Until you feel competent enough to take on a real fight)

May I say, forget the type 7, go for an Alliance Cheiftan, a little more expensive but far better for combat.

Type 7 is a combat ship? Are people misusing it as a cargo hauler?
