- Hey everyone, this tutorial will take you through my step by step process on how to maximize your profits while trading cargo in Star Citizen. I run into a lot of players who have the Drake Caterpillar ship but don't know the most profitable ways to earn in game currency. While everyone good takes time, in this video you will learn the most cost effective and lowest risk possible ways to earn loads of in game currency through large quantity trade runs. Special thanks to my irl friend Indy who originally told me about the titanium trade route. Cheers man! This videos for you :P
Also as promised here is the link to the trading website that may come in handy for a lot of you who don't own the Drake Caterpillar but want to trade in whatever ship you have.

Nice detailed walkthrough, but hoo-boy gotta admit you dragged it out a bit. So...
01 - Have Caterpillar.
02 - 02:28 - Go to Levski (Delemar).
03 - 03:18 - Take delivery missions from the "Personal" tab of MobiGlas Contract Manager app. 8.5-9k aUEC payout per contract. Try to stack missions that have the same delivery location (ie "The Orphanage").
04 - 06:31 - Save up 40-50k aUEC.
05 - 07:06 - Fly Caterpillar to "CRU L5" rest stop station.
06 - 11:46 - Purchase Scrap from "Trading & Shipping" consoles in the Admin Office on the main floor.
07 - Sell Scrap at Levski for ~35% profit.
08 - 14:09 - Continue Scrap runs. Save up 107k+* aUEC (~77k for a full load, yielding ~27k profit).
09 - 18:28 21:01 - Fly Caterpillar to Bezdek or Lathan (Arial, moon of Hurston).
10 - 21:38 - Purchase Titanium from "Trading & Shipping" consoles in the "Storage" building.
11 - 26:28 - Fly Caterpillar to Lorville (Hurston).
12 - 27:42 - Take green line to the "Central Business District".
13 - 28:58 - Locate "Trading & Shipping" consoles in the "Transfers" hall.
14 - 29:35 - Sell Titanium at for ~25% profit.
16 - 30:57 - Continue Titanium runs until you're a Millionaire (~402k for a full load, yielding ~102k profit)!
* ~107k worth of Titanium is where per-run profits will begin to exceed a full load of Scrap.
TIPS:
1 - Avoid investing ALL of your money in trade runs. It is best to set aside a significant portion of your capital (10-50%) so that you don't lose too much progress if something goes wrong on a trade run and you lose a load.
2 - 16:56 - For long distance quantum jumps, leave your seat after initiating the jump in order to reduce the frequency of interdictions. DO NOT return to seat until Quantum travel completes in order to avoid QT breaking bug.
3 - Keep an eye on your hydrogen fuel reserves (F below throttle bar).
4 - 32:43 - If you want to trade different commodities, use a different ship or just check for more current trade information (these numbers will be outdated, sooner or later), website gallog . co has lots of useful resources available.
I AM NOT VOUCHING FOR THIS INFO, JUST CONDENSING IT.
I did change/add a few numbers to be more useful.
The real content of this video. Well done YT!
Thanks bro
And to not forget: Self-diminishing advice. The more people follow this method, the lower the profits will be, due to the impact it has on the market when many people are trading the same goods. (And while NPC activity will eventually be like a buffer, player activity surely is intended to have an impact.)
Dowlphwin true but the purpose of the video is how to get to 1 mil after a wipe of the economy so right now it’s effective
Is it not possible to do runs both ways? You’d think you could buy something at the place you sell and vice versa so you’re never traveling with an empty cargo.
How to make a million in Star Citizen:
-Step 1
Have 4.7 million.
I mean you need like 40k to rent it, rented ships even when expired you can still use, at least for me.
@@CozPBR Can't rent Caterpillar in PU. Only AC. If you can, please tell me where.
@@CozPBR not anymore, was hotfix'd
Step 2. Assume there will not be any 30k for 12hrs.
30k is the citizen term for Server error 30000 which is essentially a server reset and all occupants of said sever get booted and whatever you were doing gets lost or re-set. So if you were doing a big haul in a freelancer max or a Cat you just lost your investment. 😞
You are WAY more trusting than me: I never leave my elevator down when landing somewhere.
Lol because of people like me, i stowed away a pirates ship and killed him at the helm. So i pirated a pirate, without crimestat :D
@@LoadDiscrepancy if you float in space about 10-20m in front of a cockpit as a ship is spooling up for QT you can glitch through the cockpit into the cabin area (permitted that its big enough to walk in) and dont have to alert them via opening of doors.. found that one out accidentally yesterday i was being annoying and this dude tried to warp away and i appeared on his constellation cockpit floor, stood up pulled my pistol, shot him and stole his shit.. good times.
The pointy towers are also color coded on moon bases: Red towers are trade, blue towers usually near a pad can spawn ships/vehicles.
I did not know this.
You can rent the MISC Freelancer at Lorville for 33,952 for one day which gives you 66 large units of cargo (6600 individual units). The Titanium may be a good buy but you'll want to get all the Laranite first. Each unit of Laranite makes about 4.90 (18.8% profit) where as each unit of Titanium only makes 1.82 (25.6%). While the percentage yield may be larger for the titanium, each unit consumes more cargo space and a full ship of 6600 Titanium would only make 12,012 but if you buy up all the Laranite available first, you can make a lot more. Just don't forget to fill the rest of the space with Titanium. For me, the first haul like this made up for about 2/3 of the first day's rent.
Or, go to Ita instead. The Astatine gas buys for 7.00 each and sells for 9.00 each, for 2.00 per unit. It's not as good as the Laranite, but I don't think you will be limited on how much you can buy with the larger ships either. So, Laranite first, then Astatine, then Titanium, but only whatever you can afford to fill your ship with.
"Become a Millionaire" in Star Citizen 3.7!"........ own a Caterpillar.
Yeah, sadly.
what a stupid video
yeah don't make sense not all people spend that money on one single ship with unknowing the game is a suicidal idea, i hope it work for other ship sadly i don't have anymore personal delivery when i'm in delamar
Or you can just loan the ship in-game
Are you saying you're unable to apply trade routes to your cargo ship of choice?
heyyy! take 10k and turn it into a million! all you need is a ship thats over 4mil
So you think that you can make serious money by trading in a ship that only has a small cargo capacity? It's like bitching about not being able to make as much money as truckers while driving in your fiat 500 smh.
@@paulmors575 more refering to the problem that right now, you really can't make much money unless you spent irl money on better ships or play a ridicilous amount, since the in-game economy is pretty fucked in order to encourage irl sales
@@1BITfuerGamer uc an make money even if u dont spend too much real life money... its just about learning where and how to earn money ingame fast... i earned million in 2 days without having catterpillar, and without trading at all
@@raholll well damn, how did you do that?
@@1BITfuerGamer i was only focusing on finding agricium, laranite and taranite, and it had to be around Port Olisar... when i found suitable location to go, i was returning after few minutes with 25-70k in my cargo...
You can run Hydrogen to CRU-L5 so you can double profit using half the time back and forth. So you aren't running empty to CRU-L5
CPC Gaming another great tip! Thanks man! Just confirmed this run, filling up the cat with 50,000 aUEC and getting a return of 62,000aUeC. That’s a great way to shorten the beginning stages of these cargo runs :) I don’t see any downsides aside from the minor additional risk (losing your cargo during the return run and losing some capital) only reason this would happen of course is from game crash or you crashing :p
Levski will be in Nyx the future and Microtech will be where Delamar is now, but you are right the short run cargo haul does work well with any cargo ship and any of the main trade Hubs, PO, Area18, Loriville, and in 3.8 Microtech.
Can I suggest a followup, which is becoming a millionaire with a freelancer. The cat isn't available for everyone to purchase, and it being a cargo vessel is a huge risk. This is a much juicier target for pirates, where I suggest a Freelancer Max. This ship has a ton of firepower and ability to maneuver. It doesn't stick out as a juicy target, and is much closer to a beginning ship. Costing 100 dollars, the Cutlass has 46 SCU, where the Freelancer Max packs 122 SCU for 50 more dollars. I'm not sure how long it would take, but using a Freelancer Max (which is purchasable with cash) to earn a Caterpillar (not purchasable) would be a great part 2 video.
Will Wall I will definitely check that out! Again I’m just waiting for my new ssd to arrive so I can continue making SC content. I look forward to posting my next video! :)
Tip, you can QT out of most moons at already 2000 altitude.
That's the beauty of the first route in this vid, quick QT from Levski and CRUL5. other info: sometimes the price of scrap is depressed at Levski, u can wait that out to some extent, on the plus side Hydrogen and Aluminium from Levski to CRUL5 pay about the same % as the scrap run, Hydrogen better in fact, makes this run really worth while.
Few people know this it seems, but to place a box or object like the flare you don't have to hold f and interact with the box. If you simply hold left click while a none weapon object is in your hand, it will give you the option to place it if you look at a surface near you, or throw it by looking into a distance. The throw is kind of random in the direction the item goes at the moment though.
Man I really appreciate ur tutorial I have a Freelancer and im gonna do everything u say at my scale ! thanks for all this amazing content on this incredible game
Remy Bajazet cheers man! Thanks for the kind words :)
when you jump to a r&r station you cane pull up the station again and jump the rest of the why there. saves about 10-15 mins.
Screaming in Silence great tip! I just recently found that out from a friend in SC. It saves a significant amount of time! :)
Explain?
So once you quantum to an r &r station. You can re-spool your drive and get 100km closer. Saves time :)
@@Dropzoneyyc yea you have to pull up the star map and jump that way. it will take you to around 30km out from the station
@@screaminginsilence6560 or u just aim at it (?)
U guys jump to yela and drive to grim hex too? :b
You should really change the title to add" must own catapillar" cuz it will confuse new players
@@dan271291 I believe he might've changed the title to that since people were complaining.
apologies i didnt know there was a title change correction
5:10 WARNING!! This does NOT work in Lorville, the "trash-cleaning-script" is so extreme in that object container, that any boxes left on the floor will literally just vanish after two seconds, even if they are part of an ongoing and tracked mission. NEVER leave a box on the floor on Hurston.
Congrats! Great vid! I appreciate the time, energy and effort you put into this. It's great to see a fellow smaller sizes channel get great views for a great video. Keep up the work man!
Dustin Riggs thanks very much! I really appreciate that man :)
@@Dropzoneyyc I subscribed man, like your content. If you want to check out some of my videos, they are under Texas Space Navy.
CRU-L1 to PO scrap runs in the Cat can be completed in less than 12 minutes round trip. Don't actually land in a hangar at CRU-L1, just pull up reeeeeeaally close to a pad. To avoid pad rammers at PO, don't request landing access. 30 seconds after landing, your ship (and cargo) will be automatically stored, and you will be teleported into the station, just upstairs from the trade terminals. You will pay a 250 parking fine, which is peanuts, and will not gain a crimestat. For this run, 76k invested yields 28k profit.
For those of us that do own a Cat, and hadn't learned an efficient, safe way to trade up the scale, thank you! I was ready for something besides glitching out in cave mining.
So I need a caterpillar. Now that is gonna be SO useful...
Lot of salty dogs in here. O_O
This was a great guide.
If y'all are mad because of bugs, don't play right now - wait until the project is further along. For those upset because he's got a Caterpillar - you can make plenty of money in a Cutlass, or even an Avenger....just not in a day. This was a nice helper for folks with bigger cargo ships I'm sure. He starts off by saying it's for Caterpillars. Commenting all salty-like because he's using a ship he purchased is just silly.
@UCqgTZVkMeunRUOwVF8ybLnA It won't be like this on launch day at all. Set trade routes like this simply will not exist, since the supply/demand will be dynamic. It's going to take a lot more effort to make this kind of money with cargo come "launch day."
Also, worth noting that cargo has a high potential for loss as well as gain, and always will. If it makes you mad that someone dropped a few hundred dollars to support the game and get a useful in-game item, consider that your less-expensive contribution also gives you access to the game that [insert person here] helped build with that contribution. As you mentioned, you could cause a great deal of grief to that person as well, causing the great loss I just mentioned.
Pay To Win is one thing, and sure, undoubtedly gives a leg up right off the bat, but it's not without it's universal benefits and personal risks.
Most "PTW" games don't have that kind of risk. They are profit models, SC is a funding model. Every player benefits when some crazy hombre buys a ship package for $10,000 - much more than players lose because of "pay to win."
"since the supply/demand will be dynamic. It's going to take a lot more effort to make this kind of money with cargo come "launch day.""
On the other hand, there will be bigger opportunities for fast cash, but they won't be repeatable. Can't wait.
So many haters. Thanks for the explanation. Great job
Interesting route through the Caterpillar. I normally go backwards, down to the engine room and then back to the ramp :) Also, turning off your engines after landing saves fuel and shutting your doors stops people stealing your ship or stowing away and then killing you mid QT (had that happen before!).
Thank you very much for the information. You are a very good teacher and a guide. Keep on doing the good work. Cheers!
TL;DR:
- Go to Levski, do the 9000 aUEC delivery missions to the Orphanage (bugged in 3.7.1)
- Once you have 20k+ go to CRU L5, buy scrap, fly to Levski, sell scrap; repeat until you have ~200k
- Fly to Arial (Hurston Moon) HDMS-Bezdek, buy Titanium, sell at Lorville Business District until you are a millionaire.
No need to watch a 30 min video for something an excel sheet tells you in 30 seconds.
For those impatient people I guess not, but I actually enjoyed the 30 minute video. But hey, you could delete the last bit of your comment and I'm sure other impatient people will like this so it makes it to the top. Good summary, but no need to be rude.
@@Taeleus it's not rude, it's efficient.
@@B20C0 true
This guides works just as well with any other ship with cargo space, it will just take longer time to get to a million creds.
If you are the "Get-rich-quick-kid", then you need the Caterpillar. Otherwise you will get there eventually with any other ship and patience.
Simple as that.
Cogent, concise, comprehensive. Excellently presented. - thats a like and sub . ding!
Very nice tutorial! Thanks man
Better to use kb&m or joystick and throttle for this?
Cheesepants I think it’s personal preference. I use keyboard and mouse. I play with friends who use joysticks and love them for flying. I’d like to try joysticks personally
it really needs keyboard /mouse switchable to throttle and stick flight controls at the pilot seat. Needs a setup that all are active at same time all the time.
Have you thought of updating this to 3.9 or 3.10 (soon)? It's an excellent video!!
ya vice runs are good for any ships smaller than a cutlass i think best ship for vice is orion 315 with 12 auec anything larger has long waiting times and annoying trade efforts. its how i made my start with 20k capital made up to 80k then started running metals and minerals in my starfarer
5000auec is standard start. If u have more then its from someone applying ur ref code and u get your bonus each wipe
mate linked me this vid and when he said that I thought...... dude is new to SC, if he isn't then he is an opinion giver not a fact finder.... DO SOME RESEARCH
For some reason I start with 25k each wipe, but I haven't referred anyone. I backed in ancient times though, so perhaps there was a bonus given to everyone early on.
@@CeesaX I can confirm there have been multiple bonuses for early backers, my pack gives like 6k UEC but I start every reset with about 33k.
When Cobra Tv gets stop almost every time he leaves his seat to show his ship and talk with or without eny thing in his ship. So you are just getting lucky that you are not being stop and killed. Those golden 30 feet found and his family descendent owns that planet and when you go in the room the big glass window at the other side of the room you will see the owner at his deck on the phone working all the time and says he see to busy to take right now. He owns the planet and it tells you all over that place if you look and read it off the wall.
Worth noting that starting around Delamar can be even quicker with bounty hunting. You can chain the 8k and 10k missions that are available there, and all the targets are around Delamar itself, so a small area.
Might want to make a vid on how to use other methods to get to renting the Caterpillar before this vid ;) Edit: NVM. Caterpillar not rentable. So most folks are SOL... :(
I know this might get buried, but what is the next logical step above running titanium? Laranite, and the other higher valued commodities all have a much smaller supply and/or demand than titanium. It seems like on a normal day in the verse, titanium is the most profitable commodity that has readily available supply and demand to work with while using a Caterpillar. Laranite, Medical Supplies, and a few others are 'worth' more, but require more time to buy a shipload of them. What are your thoughts?
Osiris Henschel sometimes you can get lucky and run into large quantities of laranite but you’re right. It’s usually not worth it to even try. I mean honestly once you make enough I would rent a cutlass and do some drug runs with it. Just to mix things up. I think certain trade terminals have higher buying times and amounts. Crul4 for example will buy 5000 units at once and then has a refresh rate of 2000.
@@Dropzoneyyc That's a good idea, I haven't thought to use my smaller ships for running vices. Thanks!
great job on this video. even non cat owners (like myself) should be able to glean some info.
freelancer dur/cutlass black here.
You did not mention the no-fly restricted zones over lorville. There is a tutorial vid on on landing in lorville though.
Great walkthrough! But if you can update it to the 3.11 would be great! TY
I mean yeah, if you happen to own a 310 dollar ship you can make money fast, considering you dont have crashes, disconnects or server resets...
Or you can just loan the ship in-game
@@xavierdeville9885 you can't loan the cat
well to each their own. you can rent a much smaller ship and trade more expensive goods (like laranite or even drugs), more profit per SCU. a freelancer or a cutlass is perfect for this
Thank you for that very nice explained video. I will try with starfarer.
And I hope soon with the BMM :)
I just hit b now days and point the ship towards the point i like to go to and it will start the spooling.
Grim hex has 6 personal missions for 8k each, you can grab all 6 throw them out on the pad and then call your ship
It seems like you are only running commodities one way. Look for routes that make profits to AND from. or even multiple stops. The Arial to Hurston makes decent coin. I just don't like deadheading (traveling empty)
All how want a caterpillar ther is a way.... go to arena commander win all waves of pirat swarm and then u can buy the caterpillar pirate version for 295€.
i knew when i clicked the video that it must be a caterpillar. this ship is awesome it helped me much in my SC life. Am question 11:09 can you leave that open without people getting in ???????
nope
Shouldn't you be hauling Hydrogen from Levski out to CRU L-5, and Scrap back to Levski? Seems like you're leaving money on the table not hauling anything out there.
How do you run while holding a box?
this is impossible to do. I never got the chance to do a run because I'd fall out of my ship during QD or the server would crash and I'd lose everything. i actually LOST money over the course of 6 hours due to glitches and 30ks.
I doubt this will work with the amount of crashes and bugs i experience in game. and the load times and re-spawn times are killer.
Do you have an SSD? You need one for this game.
@@yugen Not yet sir, thinking about getting me an m.2 my mobo will support the Gen3 (1 notch I have a RoG Maximus VIII Ranger) type, or the SATA one. I think the m.2 is faster. my load times are hideous. and I think it does not load all of the map, as I sometimes open my door to my room and it's raining people! LOL
My prob is I can't tell what is actually the game that is buggy or if it is how my PC handles the data.
M.2 speeds make Star Citizen a much better expierence.
@@bryanhopper4727 oh yeah finally picked one up. Much faster load time. Still bug A
F. But hey, it's alpha :)
Really cool video, I think I might get a caterpillar. I have been waiting on the jpeg hull series to release but that is delayed so makes sense to melt and buy.
tlove21 if you enjoy the trading aspect of the game I would recommend having a caterpillar. I melted two of my ships just so I could get it :p
Dropzoneyyc I have enough jpegs to easily get one, since the hull series was delayed it makes perfect sense.
Yep you can do it in caterpiller but not all of us have a caterpillar show us by using smaller ship like AURORA MR in 12hrs
Great content I’m truly into star citizen now I have been in that wait and see more, well I’ve seen enough. Thank you, and yes I am now a sub, keep it up, I know you are changing a lot of minds just like mine.
im so happy that i upgradet to Caterpillar
Nice thank you new to the game I appreciate you taking the time!
Wow it really means so much to me to see so many great and helpful comments on my videos. What a great community! :) cheers everyone and see you in the verse!
@Dropzoneyyc Also you would want to consider the gravity of the moon/planet you are landing on (for fuel consumption)
The BarrenDome of Star Citizen.
Thanks so much thinking about getting caterpillar this sums it up love your vids keep up the good work :)
Nice video, now I have 16 million in one week
I don't have the caterpillar, I don't have Star Citizen either, in fact I don't have even have PC capable of running such a game. What am I doing here
So once you take missions from Levski and get to your destination, do you truck back to Levski and get more or do you get missions where you end up and go from there? Also do these missions respawn in Levski if you complete them?
Pilot 2fly there are usually missions to take once you get to your destination yes. However to start doing the scrap runs you’ll want to eventually end up back at Levski. As far as I can tell the Levski delivery missions do respawn. But not immediately.
@@Dropzoneyyc thank you
PS: Most people dont have a catarpillar. also most players only start with a 5k. not a 10k wallet
Dont know if they fixed it but i dont think so, BUT! DO NOT EVER sell drugs to the R&R "hidden" terminals as you sell with a BIG loss. atleast that was teh case when they added the terminals in
Any thoughts on a good trade route for the Jump? It has limited locations, but good cargo space.
rhadiem that’s actually a great question. I’m sure that the titanium run will work fine from bezdek to lorville. I don’t think you have to “fit on the landing pad” at bezdek to be able to purchase from there and as long as you can land properly at lorville you should be fine. :)
@@Dropzoneyyc Yeah that's true, thanks.
cool video man keep it up just subscribed
why do you fly empty back to Ariel? Why not buy something in Lorville and sell it in Ariel that way never have an empty cargo run
Todd D that’s a great point. However there isn’t anything from lorville (admin office, cbd) that Bezdek or Lathan will buy from you. They don’t even accept scrap. :(
@@Dropzoneyyc Thats why you add some intermediary outposts. Agri/Med Supplies -> Distilled Spirits -> Diamond/Titanium/Lara/Agri/Asta. Rather than running empty, you can make profit on every trip and allow more time for kiosks to regen. Can cut your 12 hours in half :)
@@TheDirrtyOne this video is very clickbaity in general :D
@@Schimml0rd honestly, I didn't watch more than to see he flew a cat but reacted to comments/replies. I think it was 3.6 someone posted getting a mil in 3 hours but started from 200k which you can make from bounties in an hour when they work :)
The the 4 nations, traders, miners, hunters, and CIG lived in peace, until one day the CIG national attacked,
Using their superior and legendary “30k error” both the trade nation and miner National fell quickly, now the final hope of the verse lies on the shoulders of the hunter nation.
you can also make profit with the cutlass black with the Catt Trade route (if you don't have Catt)
Question, doesn’t the place selling Titanium run out? I know the drugs do.
Andrew Rowland the titanium sellers don’t run out. You can fill your ship always, it’s amazing :)
The drug sellers run out because if they didnt, people would just fill up a caterpillar worth of 1mil and do that instead of good honest work ;)
@@Obsidianen and it would take 3 days to empty it ahah. on a side note, does ships depop if trading takes too long ? and when you pop them again, do they reapear with everything inside ?
@@neojack333 If they get actually stored then yes, theys do pop back with their cargo. All ships get stored by ports like PO, Levski, Arccorp, Area18 etc
@@Obsidianen good to know thanks. now i wonder if this works if in the meantime you get disconnected, and pushed to another server when you are back.
But hey that's why i always bring a partner to co-pilot when i haul expensive stuff.
Thanks man, great info.
What happened to the run to the orphanage? Where IS the orphanage?
*Cries in my Reliant Kore*
This no longer works. Worked a week ago but yesterday hopped on and the titanium buy price went down to yield a very low 30k profit per 405k invested runs...
Everyone selling titanium then the server lowers the price. Orgs are a great resource. There's a trade calculator I use in mine that generates 3 point runs earning 90k in 30 minutes.
Can you do something like that with a cutlass or so?
Vini Van Gogh that is the plan :) I would have released it already but I’ve just started putting my old pic back together :p
@@Dropzoneyyc nice 👍👍
"Titanium takes up less space than scrap" ... no, it doesn't. All commodities take up the same space, I think what you mean is Titanium is more valuable so you might not be able to afford a full hold early on, in which case advice along the lines of it's most efficient to grind lower value commodities until you can afford a full cargo hold (or max destination inventory) of a more valuable commodity and then move up to that. Generally very good advice for people new to trading though.
dude come on with this tutorial....it would be more appropriate if you had an aurora or a mustang
but daaamn this game looks magnificent.....just publish already i cant wait anymooooooreeee
Great video, nice trade route.
And then have it wiped in 2 seconds! Yay!
This is not 3.7. In 3.7 test is middle level on the left, not top left.
Benoit Laupretre this was recorded on 3.7.0, what we are in now is 3.7.1. Where they made quite a few updates as well as did a wipe. Great point though, it’s weird now that I see it the chat is directly over the ships shields :p
But is it safe from server crashes, disconnects and quantum bugs :D And you pretty much get the same amount of money by doing the bounty missions around levski. About 80 to 100k per hour.
Lars Kraus it is true you can make good money from bounty’s. However I did the titanium runs for many many hours on the same server with no issue. Also the run takes just over 30 minutes for 100k. Which is very profitable. I guess it all boils down to how much you’re willing to commit to a single run. After a while losing 250k or more to a sever bug doesn’t set you back that far. Thanks for the comment! :) cheers!
@@Dropzoneyyc yeah the Servers Run better again since the wipe.
CRU L5... Wait a minute... No more R&R at this location.
Can you make a similar video with a Cutlass?
L3O yes I certainly can! Requires a bit of testing and running multiple routes while timing it. But yes I can certainly make one for the cutlass. As well as the freelancer! :)
the cutlass is to big for vice and to small for other materials but if thats the best you got run vice or drugs from 20k to 80k in a small ship 8 to 12 hold size move to cutlass on gold then move up to top metals but a million goal in a cutlass is almost impossible unless you got a month
where is he in the start of the video?
Cargo runs aren't worth it anymore doing mercenary mission are quicker and fast there some mission for 20k you can do in 6 min and repeat you do about 150k per hour so in 12hr you have 1.8mil credit and no cost unless you get Blown up but only little compare do getting DC with cargo spent and lossing it.
I tried to land at those two spots and both said I was too big in a Cat. I ran out of fuel and had to suicide my ship, losing my cargo, which was my entire net worth. What in the world did I do wrong?
Nick Timmermann ? You shouldn’t have to request landing at bezdek. Just land anywhere close by. And lorville will definitely allow a catt to land with no issue..
@@Dropzoneyyc it was Bezdak, I must have screwed up. The comm channel was "platinum" something or other. I didn't realize so could just land. I know I can land at Lorville, but due to a series of very poor decisions, I couldn't make it there. I spent all my cash on scrap, so I couldn't buy fuel. Noob mistakes, but that's how we learn, barring excellent online mentors 👍
You had me until Caterpillar required
You must be very lucky. I get hit with disconnect errors or crashes to desktop so I can never really make anything substantial!
lourr do you have the game installed on a SSD hard drive? Also make sure that every patch you delete your shaders folder, then re-verify. This helps a lot with crashes and disconnections.
@@Dropzoneyyc I delete the user folder for every patch. Hardware is not issue believe me. I find trade a little like playing in a casino. Play long enough and the house will always win back its money. Thanks for your video, I enjoyed it.
why no mention of laranite?
Emanuel Hernandez generally Laranite isn’t available in large quantities. And to wait out the terminal takes far too long therefore it’s less profitable than just running titanium. If you’re lucky enough to find a station selling laranite in large quantities (preferably 1million or more) then go for it :)
I'm just not willing to do any trading that involves Loreville because it takes so damn long to get to the trade consoles.
My crew and I can make 1m aUEC in 4 hours. The runs he is doing are really slow. If you're starting out and want to haul, run fluorine from arccorp mining 157 to deacons research, both on yela. you only make a little bit per run, but each full run takes less than 5 minutes. Also, it helps to run with at least 1 other person. If you own the ship, have them pilot and make sure they're fast. Have them open and close the door/elevator with the k key. That way you dont have to run in circles from the cockpit to the elevator, then the trading outpost, buy, run back etc. Its just too much wasted time
running fluorine between the two takes 12 mins to make around 22k. this means 110k takes around an hour. at this rate it would take 8-10hours to make 1mill if no crashes. how are you guys doing it in 4 hours are you using this method or somethign different? Thanks
@@Jordan-ug7yk that's the starting step, after we have built up some capital we move on to diamond and larinite at tram to port olisar. You cam do a similar run with titanium and larinite in the hurston and arccorp systems. Though those runs take a little longer.
Is there a place to know which place sell/buy what and at what price?
yes here you go: www.gallog.co/trading/
Thank you.
i cannot understand why everybody says trading is the best way to make money in star citizen.
the verse its just too small to make serious money with trading..no one buys something,because shops are allway overfilled from giant freighters like the caterpllar..it just makes no sense.
i wanted to like trading,its so cool with all the cargo in the ship,but nobody buys it,shopinventory full..
i mean,its okay,its alfa,its just one starsystem,to small for all the people,but why is everybody talking about the great monoey maker trading??makes no sense to me...
a few days after a serverstart trading is almost impossible.all full,so much giant freighters and so less shops..
Good info.. thanks
What if I make 999,999 aUEC? So it means I'm not dedicated?
Delamar is actual planet, not moon.
So why not do titanium runs from the getgo instead of scrap?
CalvinsOfficial if you start with titanium without the capital to back up buying large quantities it will take an incredibly long time to make aUEC. I mean no matter what you do it’s going to take time to make aUEC. But the profit margin for scrap is much higher and the trade route is quicker than titanium. making it an ideal early stage trade route.
@@Dropzoneyyc just asking because I only have a cutlass and am wondering what's the best process for that ship as the cargo capacity is a lot smaller
@@Dropzoneyyc but I guess essentially it's about being able to afford it, so if I can carry as much titanium as possible I should go for it, right?
Yeah, if you have a smaller ship you can go for it. Sometimes players with smaller ships will try selling commodities that are illegal because they barely take up any space on ship. The downside is they are much riskier trade routes
@@Dropzoneyyc thanks for taking the time to answer, great video by the waay!
Ok, I took 2 packages like med sticks, etc. But there is no place to turn them in at the Orphanage, there is a station to buy and sell things but no drop off terminals, or am I missing something here?
It's bugged, that's why I was surprised he said he preferred to run the Orphanage.
@@Kayvel54 Thanks for the info, I just started mining with my Prospector and I'm pulling in $100,000.00 over 4 runs. Still not as fast to make money as this guy does, but it's something.
Beleave it tho in 12 hours I can make the same via bounties
Yeah, but you also have expenses like ammunition and missiles, which you dont have as a merchant ;)
how about a video for those not fortunate enough to own a cat, you should have alos put in your title that it was with a prebought cat
you have a starfarer? you need a ship with huge haul compacity to make good money fast the smaller the hold the many more hundreds of trips and hours you need to add if you have anything smaller than a freelancer max a million goal is eternity
@@kevinalmeida7159 what o dont have a starfarer, what made ypu tjink that, i have a titan avengrt
very nice video :D
