Making Credits

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Making Credits

Hey all, I bought this wonderful game about two weeks ago, and was just curious about some of the better ways to advance through it. As it stands, I have been just doing the stuff with Juni, and picking up missions from the bars as I progress. This is not really a whole lot of fun, as most these bar missions all seem the same. Can anyone give me some advice on how to make some decent credits and gain some levels? I am currently level 13 with 113K total worth. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

look around the forum for some great trade routes that can easily get you 4 mil per hour

Ya know..life is a game, a very complex game, the main difference from a computer game is that the game of life has no save reload button...

Trading...always trading..


another way you can make money is pirating. That is blow up cargo trains underbelly, steal the cargo and run for your life. Nobody in liberty likes you anyway at that point in the SP game.

Also, a more fun way to make money is ...killing. Yup , killing people doing missions makes you money. I wish this is true in real life where you can go to a bar and people pay you directly to your account in the bank..

Juni : Did I ever tell you that people are change by circumstancecs?
Trent : uhh[!..No?..
Juni : Well I did. Babble..babble..bla..bla..bla..
Trent : (Ok...ok.. do I get to sleep with you or not?)

i dont know about you guys but i think that trading is one of the most boring things in the game, yeah you can make some pretty good credits but all you do is fly around alot. woo hoo! nothing like sitting around for ten minutes waiting for your ship to make it to the jumphole or jumpgate!

Sometimes when I want to feel like an Outcast, I go on smuggling runs from Malta to Rochester, taking only the jumpholes and avoiding the police. It isn't the best source of money, but it does make me feel like a "real" smuggler. As for when i actualy want to make some cash, I take some lvl. 40 missions on crete or malta.
