Trading in .85 - a poll

[Unseelie]

On the routes themselves, I've learnt to hate long routes, for the simple reason that I rather enjoy getting myself entrenched in the local rp, which I feel is very different from system to system. On a route which passes through 3 systems, thats reasonably easy to do, to maintain the feel of an ongoing rp, even if you're absent for a third of the time. Floating through a 10 system route, on the other hand, leaves me 3 minutes every 30 to catch up on what is going on in any given system, which eventually gets me stuck in the position of just being a passer through. Since the economy has changed, I've found the rp to be had as a trader seriously deminish if I want decent profits. The worst part is that the economy, the routes....they don't feel quite right, quite real. I feel as though I'm being traffic controled, like I'm not making the choices. And that absolutely ruins it for me.


Flat out? I hate the new system. The old system was screwy and twisted, but even with all of its flaws, it was fun. The new one is not.
