I have played match after match and I am being shorted big time. I am barely breaking 200K ISK a game. Last game I played I went 22-8 with 1335 WP and came in second place my earnings 183,594 ISK. I was killing, I was hacking, counter hacking and I still get S*** for ISK. Match before I destroyed 3 tanks, went 12-2, with 1465WP and I got just over 165K in ISK. I cant keep running my advance suits at this rate. If I die more than 4 times I am in the red. WTF does CCP want us to do, run militia and BPO's. This is F***** awful, and a f***** disgrace. How does CCP expect people to enjoy this pile of excrement if you cannot resupply yourself off the earnings you make. The only way to make up for this is to AFK or run crap gear. My cheapest advance suit cost 47,235 ISK, that is nothing special. So dusties who else is coming up short on ISK?


Edit: To prove my point I sat in the red line and did nothing but set up road blocks for vehicles. I destroyed one LAV with RE's and was orbitaled once. My end score was 2-1 290WP. My total of ISK made 170,257 and I did not do S***. Sorry to the team I was on for I was no help and still made almost the same amount of ISK as I did in the previous battle. Sad I work my A** off to help my team win and I get S*** in return, do nothing and I get rewarded. CCP reminds me of public school, they do not care if you do well, just as long as you show up you got a passing grade

I'm not sure what they did to the ISK payouts but I have also noticed them to be marginally lower than usual for the same scores I was registering before 1.7. I would average 2000-4000 WP a game (mostly DOM matches) with 20+ kills and 5 or less deaths, receiving a payout of 300-500k ISK a match. Now for the same scores I'll receive between 200-400k ISK per match. Don't believe I have broke a 500k ISK payout other than once since 1.7 dropped (which both teams were running full proto which means higher ISK payout). With those payouts I can only lose 2 proto suits a match or 5-7 ADV suits to make a very small profit.

If I remember correctly ISK payouts are based on WP and the meta level of the gear players wear that die. Perhaps with so many people using LP items the ISK payouts are much lower now. That's just speculation on my behalf though.

Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives.

What you said is the best answer I have read so far. I did not factor in LP and this could be the cause.


Edit: After reading some of your post I would like to say TY Thor for your reply, it was a good one. Second some of you have comprehension issues, where in my post did I mention proto, I didn't. Also the post was about the ISK payout being broke and it is.
