Howdy everyone. I wanted to update some answers to previously asked and answered questions stated below about what is earned and when. I started playing 3 weeks ago as of tomorrow and have been working on my Fed rep first. My current rank is Chief Petty Officer sitting at 100% so I'm just waiting on my "rank up mission".
I can confirm:
1) That the current table shown above is correct in reguards to the rewards. At Midshipman I unlocked the Dropship; at Petty Officer I got my Sol permit; at Chief Petty Officer I got my Vega, Beta, and Hydri permits and unlocked the Assult Ship.
2) Yes Ceos and Sothis STILL work you just need to execute some patients on waiting for missions but they really are there. AS OF RIGHT NOW I am Broker rank (earned staight up only here in Ceos/Sothis) and I now get a crazy number of short distance currier missions and insane long range (400+LY) that range from 12-100 cargo and giving 800K-3.5mil each. I just finished a run that yielded me 15.4mil and only 6 stops using a total of 184 cargo.
Now all of this was AFTER 2.2 and BEFORE 2.2.03. If I notice any changes from this point I'll hop on with another update. For the longest time I was using the Type 6 Transport which I highly recommend, even though you have shit for guns, staying within Ceos/Sothis is perfect because System Security responds very fast and will come eat whoever is bothering you ^.^, and also used the Keelback which carried less than the Type 6 but I felt safer in a fight because of the gun selection and the optional Fighter Bay.
I hope this was all helpful in some way. I check this page on occation so if y'all have any questions about what I'm doing or with what ship or how..... Reach out and I'll try to respond promptly.
