Fiasco Llana Sanmatar Kelkoons Minmatar Republic 251	Posted - 2012.10.09 02:53:00 - [1] - Quote So I'm trying to level up an alt to be a dropship pilot after easily getting to the SP cap on this account not even playing that much, and the skillbook for dropships is 600k. 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.
HowDidThatTaste Imperfects Negative-Feedback 2242	Posted - 2012.10.09 03:12:00 - [5] - Quote I'm confused I average 100,000 isk a match you sure its not a bug?

I can't imagine it's working as intended. Maybe something strange is happening like the SP diminishing returns are affecting ISK in some weird cases. It doesn't really make any sense to limit ISK since it doesn't give you better gear really, just more of the type you have.

W - T - F 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...

Fiasco Llana Sanmatar Kelkoons Minmatar Republic 251	Posted - 2012.10.09 03:19:00 - [10] - Quote Weird. Maybe it is a bug, I don't know. I'm getting like 25 kills a match now with 1,400 WP or so. Still getting 1,000 or less ISK a match.

Sandromin Hes Sand Mercenary Corps Inc. 204	Posted - 2012.10.09 03:20:00 - [11] - Quote Yeah, it might be a bug, because I'm nearly skill capped (I'm roughly at 300 SP per game even at top) and I'm still racking in 100-200k ISK a game... but however, I wonder why ISK is being affected by diminishing returns, because I was making 300k a game earlier this week... It shouldn't be affected by diminishing returns...

Can you point me in the direction of finding out how that stuff works?

Yes you should definetly report that to support, I've never gotten that low of ISK and I'm at the SP cap. I even joined a game right at the end and got 4,000 isk

I guess I'll just wait it out until tomorrow ant see if the reset helps.

Judging by the apparent number of devs working on the actual game, the support staff probably isn't that big to begin with.
