dr dreams Condotta Rouvenor Gallente Federation 20	Posted - 2013.07.26 04:22:00 - [1] - Quote I blew up four ***** tanks, and took down multiple advanced suits and a few proto in a skirmish match (scrambler fit and mass driver). How the ** am I only getting 140k isk? Are you kidding me?
TheAmazing FlyingPig Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 1926	Posted - 2013.07.26 04:23:00 - [2] - Quote If effort directly equated to ISK, you should've gotten much less for those tank kills.
Nig Stompin DIAMOND D.O.G.S 4	Posted - 2013.07.26 04:24:00 - [3] - Quote How exactly is this **** calculated anywho? I flew in a dropship with a friend today for a few minutes and afterward made 496k or so, I don't even think I got 3 kills.

Two tanks blown up by AV (one kill, one jumped out) Two tanks blown up in a tank (both killed) The rest blown up with regular guns (all adv+) 140k....okay and I just got 180k for a match where I went 6-2 and did nothing while I was playing with my fits ingame

Tectonic Fusion The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 73	Posted - 2013.07.26 04:27:00 - [7] - Quote LOL this one game all I did was spam AV at tanks. Ended up killing like 4 militia and 2 really good tanks. Got over 400k. Also I got alot of normal kills, spawned people, healed them, supplied them etc. But you have to work really hard to get money.

Yes you do, but on most games where you do well (ground or vehicle) you still get a low payout.
McFurious TeamPlayers EoN. 202	Posted - 2013.07.26 04:33:00 - [9] - Quote I'm wondering about this as well. Some games I do next to nothing and get 300k+ and other games I seem to kill everything I come across and get ~200k.
J3f3r20n Gh057 Molon Labe. League of Infamy 40	Posted - 2013.07.26 04:37:00 - [10] - Quote Yeah, well said...Most good games i earn 200 k at max. reviving, spawning, healing, killing, blowing...it's weird, that's why i'm playing with free ****, because proto and adv are waste of money. I'm a logi (at least i try to be one) and most of the time i ended up negative on killboard, so i'm wasting money.

Telleth DUST University Ivy League 83	Posted - 2013.07.26 04:41:00 - [12] - Quote I thought you did too, removed cause my response wasn't appropriate for this board. Think the payout is softly based on value destroyed combined with contract payout divided among your team... Or something like that, black magic and voodoo just as likely
I-Shayz-I Forty-Nine Fedayeen Minmatar Republic 474	Posted - 2013.07.26 04:50:00 - [13] - Quote isk payout is determined by these factors: -Average costs of suits/vehicles used in battle -Cost of things you destroy -WP earned -Time spent in battle I know that time spent and the cost of your suits and vehicles play a MAJOR role. WP and things that you destroy don't factor in as much unless you use expensive suits to destroy them. Also, if you lose a bunch of expensive suits or vehicles and then start using militia fittings, you'll get less rewards than if you had kept using expensive fittings. For instance, if you use a proto AV fitting that costs 200k and destroy 4 tanks and a couple LLAVs, you'll probably get a good chunk of cash at the end. but...if you die 2 times in your 200k suit, and then die 8 more times in militia suits that are free, your average suit cost will go from 200k to 20k, which means you might get 140k isk instead of 300-400k That's how the system seems to work for me...

Anyway, just went another match where I did absolutely nothing. Got 160k isk. Ran expensive suits the whole match. Lolwot

How the ** am I only getting 140k isk? Are you kidding me? if you didn't come in 1-5th then theres a good chance you wont make over 250k no matter the worth of assets you destroy.

I'm always 1-5th if I'm playing and not fooling around. I think your argument is invalid

I think your argument is invalid its true thou. 1-5 get the highest payout from assets destroy as its a pool to the team not just to you. for someone in 8th to make over 250k the total worth of assets have to be over 40mil. good luck finding that in a pub match.

I just went 13-0 in a domination match Multiple proto AVs, and other players Destroyed some LAVs Always destroy turrets got 240k Pretty low IMO
MarasdF Loron Ghost Wolf Industries Alpha Wolf Pack 26	Posted - 2013.07.27 08:11:00 - [19] - Quote Yeah, I don't think it matters at all what you do in the game as long as you are 1-5. I have been in games where I just fool around with my tank, still go 1st though and I get paid 500-700K ISK. Then sometimes I play it serious and destroy plenty of enemy tanks and other stuff and yet l get paid ~200-300K ISK (1st ofc). So yeah like some here have said it probably matters most how much you risk yourself but it comes with diminishing returns, I guess. Because if you risk 100K for the duration of the whole match you can get paid 300-400K but if you risk 2 mill, you probably would get paid only 20-30% more.
Rynoceros Rise Of Old Dudes 377	Posted - 2013.07.27 18:10:00 - [20] - Quote Last night I AFKed in a losing match I was dumped into. 140,000 ISK I fought in another half-finished losing effort with double digit Ks, single digit D's and only got 8,000. No rhyme. No reason.
