[Suggestion] Making money / reputation is too easy...

[Naalei]

Hello,

My personnal opinion...

Making money should be a bit more challenging...
After a few minutes (maybe 30min) in a fresh start, I already own 3 ships (S sized)...

Ship prices vs mission and trading rewards are very unbalanced.

Missions rewards are way too high.
For ex, repairing 3 satellites (which cost around 5k each) reward more than 100k ! Should not reward more than 2k for each sat.
Repairing leaks should be only a few credits...
Missions are also too easy to finish (blow up some mines ? easy... build station ? easy... Shoot lootbox ? taxi passsenger ? take back some jewel from a ship ?)
Current missions should reward very low cash or be muuuuch harder to do.

Even trading is too easy to make money... With only 1 M-ship I earned millions of credit with herbs and alcool.

Same for the reputation with factions... I did a simple mission (repairing sat.) and earned 4 points of reputation !

I loved X3 because of all the time and effort you have to put in to upgrade your ship, then buy or claim an M3, build up your fleet / stations, etc...
I really like X4, despite all the issues which will be fixed sooner or later, but please make it more challenging (or at least, put a setting to decrease / increase rewards (credits and reputation) so everybody is happy !)
I don't want to be the universe master after a few hours.

It's easy for some people because you have the experience from other X games, and maybe they wanted a X game more casual (he is), but otherwise don't forget it's a new economic system and some balance will certainly come after the corrections of most of the bugs, some easy way to make money have already be patched, be patient

For me i can tell you are wrong with your comparaison, on X3TC i can make 10 to 20M+ in 5 min with Xenon defence missions... And i obliterated them very hard with my Argon Boreas with 16 GC and 24 flaks
