Oh, now I get why Meowers cannot supply the FC with trittium. Using only FDL would be PITA.

Also, I have no interest in mining

Do not mine something you can buy with CR made with more lucrative activities.

By using more lucrative activities you are left with more time for interesting activities, even with those that do not earn anything.

Why do I need to do any 'lucrative' activities if interesting are giving me enough credits to stop worrying about money at all?

Knightwolf 1785Now I want to see an Echo One paint job in Elite. I just wonder what ship would look best for an Echo One in Elite. Anyone have ideas?



-Looks at your hangar-

35 ships and a carrier. I think you've got 'em all. =p


Not all but the ones I like or use the most. Besides I was talking about paint jobs, and there are way to many to get.

You either have more time to play or lower needs. The latter is understandable considering you have just one ship with low rebuy.

And less cringeneering grind too. Had 5 rebuys on Marshmallow so far, one due to controller malfunction (that old stick I had before switching to HOSAS), 4 due to station interior bugs. I'm playing about 3 hrs a day, more on weekends... But with that AX combat I'm doing now it's 2-4 killed Cyclopes per 50-80k Cr repair/restock. Soooo... I'm having a lot of fun and earning money!

p.s. When I was doing CZ space combat, it was even more profitable, since taking any damage from those NPC morons means you're doing something wrong.

It’s a shame we can’t make our own paint schemes for the ships we have.

Yeah, true. Even the 'custom colour' for basic ones, with solid colour. It's just a matter of replacing white pixels with pixels of chosen colour on the ship texture prior to loading it into graphics card memory. I simplified the description of the process a bit, but technically it's quite an easy task. Why?..

I just think it would be nice to create our own and have really individual schemes.

This option will be abused by some players.

Hmm I suppose oh well just a thought ????

All Points Bulletin is a good example of what happens in an MMO game where you allow players to completely customize your vehicles paint schemes. While you do get some really creative stuff, it also gets really bad.
