  • Hi, I just started playing Crossfire v1.9, and I am a bit confused. I want to start trading to get some credit under my belt before proceed with single player missions, but I can't seem to find any ship with large cargo (other than rhino, which is just bad). Anyone generous enough to point me to a good beginner trade vessel to get my ball rolling? I been flying to Rochester base and trade the diamond I bought there for credits, but xenos and rogue camp outside that base, so it would be best if the ship can also take some punishment. Thanks in advance.

  • If you can get to Custodian, I would recommend looking there. There are a few freighters there. None are Crossfire, but are still good ships. The Jumpgate should be near Rodchester. It may be a Clan system, so watch out on servers.

    Every time I kill one, there are FIVE MORE WAITING FOR ME!!!

    I am playing single player so should be fine. And thanks for the recommendation. I do notice a jump gate right next to Rochester station.I will have a look and see what I can afford.

  • You got 3 Freighters in that system behind Manhattan, one of them has 400 Cargo, and the recommended one for a good start.



    But, did you knew you can get up to 100K $ from a single Fighter NPC by selling the Escape Pod they drop to a prison ? Capital ship's pods give more money... maybe you'd prefer to use a fighter and hunt NPCs for their pods while at once practicing your combat skills. You will need them ^^

    Chars: [CFPD]Michael~something (x25), [CFPD]~SQMS~{[(store)]} (x3), [CFPD]xfer, Event~Manager~Michael, StarfIier~EM~Michael, Event_Team_2, [GR]Michael[SP] and a blueprint of [CFPD]Sephirothis

  • That also works. That's what i did acually. Look around. EXPLORE! You'll find something. :)

  • I bought a Mule freighter on Alcatraz base in the California system....(Story Missions in SP) and i used it to destroy and loot the cargo pods on the artifact-train that you have to escort to Willard on one of the early missions :p And yeah i second what Mike said.... the Cardemine wreck in NY and California makes a good start for the game before you get out of the Liberty systems where escape pods are profitable
