How can we help you now: Hey there…
I wanted to check out the marketplace on ecc, and landed a 100 block starter sv there for about 15 minutes. After leaving I checked my hws connect, and it says I owe over 850,000 credits in tax just for that. I played a little last season, but certainly not rich, and had planned on a fairly casual playthrough this time. This 15 minutes on ecc with a starter sv will wipe out all my credits 3 times over, and will presumably leave me in debt for the rest of the season. Please tell me that the calculation for this tax is off, bc that will destroy my experience on hws. Thanks.

Tax is only applied at 9AM CEST (2 AM EST). Probably what you see there is what you will pay if your ship is there at 9AM CEST. If you move your ship and check again in a hour tax will be 0.

You’re right, thank you. That’s still a crazy tax though!

It is intentionally very expensive to motivate people to not litter the hubworld with their ships. Two seasons ago it was near impossible to get a parking spot at EGS HQ one month into season.
