Yea game mechanics are messed up if this is possible. I remember when there was no mining and you had to trade for a few months just to get enough for the Battleship then another 250mill for that good ol' BS liecence. Those were good times :D

Something needs to be changed,
either increase the droprate of the field (until depleation, i kind of like the idea)
or increase the sell prices (again), cause right now tradeing is better, i dont mine anymore, ok mining never has been particularly good for samura, cause of the terrible long way, but it was fairly save in leeds, right now it is not on alternative to tradeing, as it was before, with similar profit, just different.

About the selling prices, we got dynamic field yealts right now, why not make the ore selling prices dynamic as well.
after 1 million ore sold, the price dropps 10% or so, if no ore has been sold for 8 hours or so, the prices rise by 10%.
No idea how to balance this, but Barge owner will love it, cause they have a purpose then.
Miners mine,w hen the field gives good droprates.
Ore Traders, can sell when the prices are highest.

That way mining is profitable AND promotes player ineraction, what should be the base reason, if i am not too mistaken.

Remove mining? sure why not.

Remove trading? no,but drop all prices to 1-500per unit max. That way people can still trade,and pirates can still pirate. But neither will get huge payouts. I bet you will stil get "5mil or dai" when best cargo pay's less then a mil.

Mining nerf killed activity hubs, THATS the biggest problem. That was, maybe, good idea to spread em out (to have 2-3 activity hubs instead of Dublin (I dont count Gamma Alpha Minor here)...but not to KILL THEM! Since it's them where the most of player interactions happened. Right now it feels kinda boring wherever you go, cause those 2-6 people in the system are just that... passing by. Also it killed escort services, seriously harmed piracy etc.

P.S. I, personally, dont care for reduced incomes when mining. I'm still able to make enough cash for myself. So dont even try to view this message like "I want moar moneyz!" post...

Just my 2 cents of Q_Q.

Voted other. First of all, a topic description of "Q______________Q" makes you eligible for a response of "gtfo".
Formalities aside, I imagine the mechanics of mining could be introduced to trading as well, adding a bit of self-regulation.

:laugh:

Or maybe not. It was mostly needed for mining.

Or maybe I should say that I'm disappointed I can't make 60 million per hour? Mmmm.... no, it's np. I made enough.
