Another way to get fast money.

Do only one type of jobs, the ones where u only have to kill only "one" guy!
When ur done with him! Just flee from the others, back for another job!

Its going pritty fast if ur only taken the moste paying jobs.
-.-

Easy at start: engine parts for 600 on Houston in Texax, sell at FreePort 4 in Megelan.. easy easy cash to start.. one day I made 200k with a measly pissant ship!

Taste Death,
Live LIfe[!

if your not kos (kill on site) to the red hessians you can get diamonds for <200 , i don't trade much but i've seen them in the omega systems for about 175

How do you transport the stuff that says its highly perishable? do you need a cargo ship? I tried transporting alien organisms in my valkrie, and boom they almost died.. had to turn around and return to the place I purchased them or else I woulda lost 50k...

The life energy is only from one unit, so it goes slowly down, you would have just lost one unit of your cargo not all.

Which is acceptable if you know where to sell high.

a fairly long trip at 30 min each way average, but you can do it in a defender by yourself:

Buy Boron (~155) at Newark Station in Manhattan, New York
Then take it to
Strikers Mining Outpost in the Leeds system sell the boron (for ~860) and buy Berilyium (~300) and transport it back to Newark Station and sell it for (~960)
one round trip nets about 60k in a defender.

I find its usually an easier trip if you go through the Magellan system instead of the Cortez system (too many damn trade lane disruptions in that system, at least for me)

my new forum sig:
I have been assimilated. Freelancer is an excellent game.

Hello,

I have also an good Trade route:

buy Engine parts on Deshima Station (325), Shi ko ku System, go through Kepler System to Colorado System and sell them there on Planet Denver for 875.
This route is pretty short, sop with a huge freighter u can make lots of money in short Time.
Finally 1 advice, dont try it with the Rhino Freighter cuz the Pirates in Kepler System will rip u apart. get the Drone or Dromedary at least if ur alone.

so long have fun

indeed best run i found is diamonds new berlin > new tokyo then take back nobilium to dortmund (not much furher than berlin) and use the back route via sigma and honshu

or of couse u could goto dresden and get free diamonds

Buy Luxury Food at New London and sell at Planet Manhattan. If you use jump holes, it wouldn't be a long trip (Manhattan-[jumpholeLeeds-[JumpgateNew London). Should bring about 1.1K per unit so if you have a Dromadary, it's 302.5K per trip.

A good start for multiplayer is too take a few missions to get enough money for a liberty freighter and some capital for goods.

Travel to Colerado system and do the following trade

Luxary Consumer Goods --> New Tokyo
Engine Componets --> Planet Denver

Each run makes 50+K which is alot for the first 40 mins...

Buy the Drone once you get some more money and then keep trading.

Once you get 300+ K buy a rhino and do a few New Berlin Diamond Runs to New Tokyo through sigma-13

Took me 3-4 Hours Game time to get to lvl38

I then cashed in my money got a fully outfitted Sabre

Another way to go, or fun way. Is to sit in Kasuri space and wait for some cargo ship with some nice cargo to come by and blow it up. Loot its cargo and take it back to liberty. Can make you quite abit of money, but also alot of enemies
