This wouldn't be a problem normally, but I am getting such a minute amount of ISK every match that it would take roughly 300 full games of wrecking the enemy team to get 600k ISK.
Going 10+ kills every match with a small amount of deaths and large amount of WP and I am earning 1,000 ISK a match, is this a joke? You expect me to sit here and play 300 games just for a skillbook? When I first started the alt (earlier today,) I was getting 50-60k ISK a match. The higher my ISK goes, the less I am earning from matches.
So let me get this straight.
1k ISK a game, and probably less the more you gain.

Very small SP cap that can be earned in 3 days.

Critics raving about the game on release?
I don't think so.
Yah this is stupid. Just stupid. (I mean the ISK payouts)
If EvE and DUST's economies are ever going to mingle, you may as well make the ISK payouts for "missions" or battles better. You should be able to get a skillbook after a battle or two. The payouts have gotten too small. It's getting to be a pain in the ass (read: not fun) to grind up what you need for the basics. Either increase the ISK payouts or stop basing item and skillbook pricing on EvE. If you want the economies to stay separate that's fine... but if not take a look at it and create a NEW DUST char sans devhacks and see how boring your game gets. |

I get good kills... my k/o is better than 1:1 I'll say that. Good logi support, good vehicle kills... yet I am still LUCKY to get 60,000 ISK in a game. Most of the time I get less... |

It shouldn't be affected by diminishing returns...
You seem like you know a lot about this... what skill cap? What diminishing returns? Can you point me in the direction of finding out how that stuff works? |
