first the pay for jobs
liberty the most i found was 4000k
bertonia had about 8000k
rhienland 1500k
inner border worlds 15-20,000 k
but the outer border worlds near the unkown systems the omicrons jobs for 50,000k what if i like liberty and want to stay there but i need money why is it this way i know you all a probably aware of this i want to know why its that way
i hope this is not a spoiler becuase i dont intend it to be

Firstly, Liberty missions don't pay $4000k, they pay $4000. And the answer to your question is that as you get further out from regulated space, criminal presences become stronger. This leads to people flying better ships. So, when you do a mission out in the border worlds, you have to destroy tougher ships, so you get paid accordingly

The random missions should really be generated to match ur current player level.

Really cant be so complicated to program it that way.


But for fast money trading is better anyway.

LPI: Here is a suggestion for Rhine space, go to Vierlande Prison {going to avoid saying where is as do not wan't to be spoiler}. There are some nice paying missions there. And it does help with one criminal rep.

Also, if want a nice HF the Valkyre is available & Rhince has some nice bang-bang you can mount on it. As a side not that is what I am presently doing on a server just for a change. Flying a Valk rahter than usual Titan. It has made some encounters interesting.

That is another thing you can also do in Kusari space is Fuchu Prison. It too seems to pay more. I avoid the Brit once beacuse of the extreme difficulty getting in & out.

Hope that helps.

Hmm. if it were me, than I'd get a really good ship, like an Eagle, go to the Rheinland Police Border Station in Dresden (Sorry, don't know the name =S) Outfit myself with some killer Rheinland weapons and equipment there and pick up jobs in that area. It's supposed to be the best paying area controlled by Rheinland authorities.

The "bad guys" in Liberty space ... Bretonian too ... fly such weak ships that no one is going to pay much to eliminate. If you are flying say an Eagle or a Sabre with level 9 or 10 guns, you can blow apart the Liberty Rogues or the Junkers with one shot! And if you have level 10 guns, you can sit there and let them shoot at you -- without your shields even going down. Why should the bad guys get stronger just because your own level has gone up? Doesn't happen in real life.

If you want money, go where it is -- in dangerous systems, not where flying is without any challenge. Of course, a good question is why the powerful baddies don't invade Liberty and Bretonia with their own powerful ships. Instead, when they do come in they fly their own weakest ships.

is not that the baddies get harded when you level up its that they give you the better missoins becuase if you were a employer and you had needed someone to take out a base would ask a noob or a vet
