1. Fly pirate destroy missions, either killing or capturing ships.

2. I pick one to set aside for a Class C upgrade, and sell the rest.

3. I do random raid quests to gather shit to sell.

4. I spend days in New Atlantis selling my shit.

5. Occasionally I'll add shit to an outpost that I visit to get a new mission, go on the odd EXP-farming safari, hire a new follower for an outpost, or tweak an existing ship, just because I can.

6. When I amass around 700K credits, I build the new ship, each one different than the last.

7. Then I start all over again.

That's it.

I don't give a crap about the main quest or the jump-through-hoops side quests. Sergeant Yumi has a better chance of finding a space unicorn than ever seeing me again, regardless of how many New Atlantis flatfoots tell me that he's looking for me. I ignore my space wife when she tries to give my a ****ing aromatic space leaf; she exists only for fire support and EXP bonus ****s, although I do flirt with her occasionally. I have long since maxed out my piloting skills, so I banished that nasty creep Barrett to a distant outpost that I don't ever visit. I would do the same with that weepy redneck douche Coe, but even if I send him away his ****ing brat stays on my ship forever, so there's no point to it.

I've gotten pretty good at avoiding game bugs. The main thing is quick saving prior to boarding a ship in case the game wigs out; I've noticed that the bulbous-looking Taiyo based ships tend to have the most issues. After capturing one recently I noticed that my ship inventory had blipped out, so I went back to quicksave, transferred all 8,000 pounds of shit to myself, then put it back into my homeship with no further issues. **** you, Bethesda.

I guess I'll keep doing this until I finally get bored with it, but I'm not there yet. This is the Constitution, the coolest ship I've created so far.

That's a badass ship.

I spent the majority of my 100 hours playing this game grinding to 60 to unlock all ship parts, and then building ships.

I've got a Millenium Falcon, Ebon Hawk from KOTOR, and Serenity from Firefly. I turned the Mantis quest reward ship, the Razorleaf into the Batwing. It's cool because the Razorleaf has a perk where evil enemy ships have a chance to flee when they see it. So turning it into the Batwing was a no brainer.

My other 6 ship slots serve as placeholders for ships I steal and one slot is reserved for the next build.

Until all the stupid quest breaking bugs get fixed I'm done with anything besides tinkering and collecting money to further the hobby.
