The reason few people trade is because its generally a really crap experience. With pirates outgunning anything you can bring, AND having anything they want to shoot you with, theres just no real reason to trade unless your desperate.
Not to mention this fails to take into account the fact that the majoroty of people who act like complete jackasses are usually flying bombers or gunships, which are dirt cheap. Honestly all this does is hurt those with larger transports or capital ships.
Way more negatives than positives.
Yes a way to make trading more fun would be good. Any ideas?
As for pirates, just hire escorts and you can always avoid them, pirates have to work to catch people too you know, and even when they do, a bomber is usually the MINIMUM you need to have enough DPS to kill the trader before he just thrusts to the nearest base and tanks your damage. Thats not even taking into account if he can actually fly and fight back!
As for the price, a properly set up bomber actually costs like 25-30 mill, but ye transports are more expensive, thats why you'll see I said reducing everythings price.

I disagree.
