It is already although it is split among all the team members instead of you getting all of the money for your kills.

lol no. its based on your risk.

using a militia fit? low risk = low reward

using a proto fit? high risk = high reward

at least that's how I know it.

Erm, no it's not. I've slung plenty of proto stompers over my lap and given them the spanking of their lives while using BPO-fits.

Your payout is determined by the amount of warpoints earned in a match. Which is bad in my opinion.

I think pay should be fixed (you know, like an actual contract), sort of in the same way when you run missions in EVE (do this mission for corporation x and get y amount of isk in reward), and each member of the team gets the same amount. BUT in order to promote playing your best, the contracts should include bonus opportunities (again, sort of how it is in EVE).

Standings should also play a role if you fight for an NPC corp. No merc is gonna fight for no pay at all, so naturally corporations are required to pay a base sum regardless of the outcome of the battle. However if you lose the battle or end up in the bottom five of the scoreboard or something then you should be penalized with standings loss (which will limit your possible bonus pay).

Standing loss could also be incured for other factors (like fighting for a rival corporation).

Quite Simply: I'd like to see isk-payout move mor towards the mechanics or FW, except I don't want the "lose the battle and end up with nothing"-condition like FW is stuck in now.

As I said before, you'd have to be a pretty stupid merc to invest in a battle with your own money and your own dropsuit, fighting with total strangers that you know nothing about at random and accepting not even getting a base salary if you lose the battle.

So, more like FW payout mechanics, but with a base salary listed in the contract before you choose to accept it.
