There is currently only one full story-path, tying in to the terrorist destruction of the navy's largest shipyard. There are very few unexplored systems, but just like the original, they often have juicy rewards for fully exploring. You don't have to move away from the system center to jump, and there is a drive that allows you to jump without a full stop (like the telepaths). Turrets are far more powerful than the originals (or perhaps the direct guns are simply wimpy by comparison). Of course, just like EV:Nova, the trading game is really just a way to get the mission game started.Īs for differences: Currently, bigger is always better, there isn't enough tradeoff to worry. There are some very lucrative trade routes, but they tend not to be in the well-traveled paradise worlds or near-Earth sectors. I find that endless sky has that crossover point a bit higher, but it does become quite profitable to trade eventually. Once you had enough cargo space (about 75), switching to simple bulk runs was better. The best way to make cash at the start in EV:Nova was the missions just like Endless Sky. (Aside from that I can't Caps-lock and accelerate time 2X.dang that was great.) So I ask the community.what other differences and bits can an old-time EV player expect? What parallels should I look for, and what can be misleading? Now, I haven't played Endless Sky all that much yet, and am very much looking forward to more it has to offer.but I'm also looking for more differences, both good and bad, between this game and EV. Sigma Shipyards and UN Shipping deliveries were better, but even they were never as lucrative as that New Ireland/Earth route, and others like it. Now, in EV Nova, this was a very slow and painful thing to keep doing.profits were low, you could barely keep your ship running, and it was barely worth it when you had a ship with more than fifty tons of cargo space. Rather, the best way to make money fast here is to do as many rush deliveries as you can.grab a delivery or three, then along the way get more of them for the same destinations, then just keep circling the galaxy aimlessly doing odd jobs. However here in Endless Sky, I have looked around.I found a trade route that seemed pretty similar, Sol to Car Caroli, however I find that when combined with my mortgage fees, this actually results in me slowly losing money.not gaining it. Buy low, sell high, trade and profit was the key to success. Right off the bat at the very beginning of the game, that was the way to get a rapid-start straight into profit and riches, allowing you to hurry the hell up and get that IDA Frigate or Enterprise so you could start safely going into Pirate hunting or one of the six great storylines. However, for all its amazing similarity to Escape Velocity, and its improvements in some very key points, there ARE some differences.įirst of all this is that in EV Nova, the absolute best way in the game to make money was the New Ireland to Earth trade route. ![]() I am now flitting around space in my little light freighter making money. Now, I was a little skeptical at first.I mean, the screenshots and the little "inspired by Escape Velocity" in the description was great, but you know how things can be disappointing if you get your hopes up. So you can imagine how absolutely overjoyed I was when I saw this. I conquered most of the known galaxy in my Pirate Carrier and my Raven, I struck fear into the hearts of every Pirate in space, I made the secret Sigma Shipyards mission to Kont and back with ease, (after I got the hang of it.) you name it, I did it. Alright, so Escape Velocity Nova was one of the greats of my childhood.
