Players on the r/EliteDangerous subreddit have raised concerns about a sharp rise in Fleet Carrier operating costs. One commander noted their Carrier's weekly expenses jumped by about 7 million credits beyond what the Frontier Companion Calculator predicted. This unexpected increase has sparked debate over whether it is a bug or a deliberate adjustment by Frontier Developments. Since Fleet Carriers represent a significant investment and serve as critical operational bases, higher costs could influence player strategies and resource management in the game.
- Weekly operating costs reported to be 7 million credits higher than expected.
- Community uncertain if change is a bug or developer-intended.
