Yeah well what ever you did its the right way, but not enough ! Im running a heromech with premium time and still manage to lose money in loss battles. - And before you rave an howl NOOB and L2P; Im playing assaults and usual ends in the middle+, so Im not good nor bad.

[DeathofSelf]

Only played a couple matches, but medium mechs seem to be getting the shaft (again).

[CSHubert]

I dunno... Assault really cant haul its weight money wise

[Tim East]

TAG just prints C-bills now. OTOH, my non-TAG-wielding mechs do seem to make a bit (~30%?) less than they used to. Maybe everyone with E slots should just mount TAG? Is that what the devs are looking for?

[CSHubert]

Well running Atlas doesnt seem to make eny creds or xp... that nice AS7S cant carry its weight and cant climb out of the basic levels... no wins and no effect

Not sure what your talking about, one of our guys got 400k playing a kitfox with tag and narc.

If you're getting less than you get, your playing the game wrong.

Obviously we are playing the game wrong. We all should all buy premium time and use only ECM light mechs with narc and tag in each match....

I don't know about that. I took the new atlas out for a match (and I am not a good assault pilot) and got almost 200k Cbills and over 2500 XP I think (granted that is with the cbill boost and "first win" xp boost). Which is a hell of a lot more than I got in the centurion.

[Sagedabluemage]

really? im making more than normally. I get around 250k even with losing when it used to be around 150k without premium and a cbill bonus.
They have alot of things staying in lance formation defending flanks, defensive formation.
its actaully really good for play from what im seeing.
granted the team becomes a rolling death ball since no one is going to far but thats kinda how its supposed to be with lances and main forces.
Instead of the standard peekaboo tactics and run and gun i see.

Update: After playing a dozen or so matches (perhaps not statistically significant) I'm not noticing a huge variation in my earnings and am in fact enjoying the new rewards system. I don't quite understand all the mechanics yet, but I am still hopeful that once people get used to it they'll be more encouraged to play a team-based game in PUG matches. I think this could be a great addition.

[Kamies]

So if people earn less c-bills per match then c-bills are harder to get which make them worth more than before. You could say this c-bill nerf...

wasn't nerf at all. It was a buff!

[Troutmonkey]

Earning slightly more on good wins, fair amount less (<100k) on average wins (ie Carried), and a lot less on losses (< 50k). It's really hurting.

Overall CBILLs are way down, even though it appears to be more at times, the average has greatly decreased. Assist need to earn more CBILLs

Yeah, because every single mech in the game is supposed to be a spotter tagging and narcing! Take that genius, *******!!!

[Milocinia]

I don't use narc, tag or lrms but reward 2.0 is working for me.

Even though I always have premium and use mechs with bonus c-bills, there's been a noticeable improvement to my c-bill and xp generation.

I'm not always conscious of what I need to be doing to rack up the rewards in 2.0, I just try and play for the team (even during this tourney) and the end results are usually pretty good.

If it helps I play conquest quite a lot as I prefer the more open playstyle it gives instead of the same old deathballing. Have you tried different game modes and simply just "playing" to see how your rewards might stack up?

Oh shite, I've been playing it wrong all this time. Time to load up my Timberwolf with 7 TAGs and 4 NARCs. Please add me to your group. Thanks!! I want to drop with you all the time now

Because all you need now is to be able to run around and tag and narc anything. The new system severely punishes damage dealers.

[Troutmonkey]

Don't we just love sub 100k victories?

[Ironwithin]

Damage- and kill-rewards definately need a buff. Right now the endscreen basically tells you you're an idiot for killing people instead of shining a laserpointer in their eyes.
