Maybe it's the conquest mode, or people just fumbling around with new 'mechs (elevating my score), but if I do 500 damage in my Cent AH I'm consistently hitting around 200K earnings on a win. Definitely feeling the improved conquest earnings.

Don't fall for it, Russ!

Just look at the history of 151st Light Horse Regiment's posts. They're 100% troll posts.

Nothing to see here. Move along. Move along.

Russ, when you look at earnings, please don't just look at average. Look at distribution. I think the U curve has increased by several std deviations. More pay for small number of games but WAY less for many others.

Russ is right, your score isn't even mathematically possible unless you were lying.

500 damage x 21 = 10,500
4 assists x 2500 = 10,000
Loss = 10,000

Total = 30,500

Then you don't mention the tons of other bonuses they added.

You didn't get any of these?
  • hit and run
  • lance formation
  • protected medium
  • protect proximity
  • kill most damage
  • Savior kill
  • scouting
  • flanking
  • component destruction
If you didn't get any of these then that means you hit a bunch of different targets. You didn't do much damage to the mechs you got your 4 assists on. How you got 500 damage without any of these makes me think you got a good chunk of damage from a strike and maybe some long range spray and pray with lasers or missiles. Not even 1 component destruction? c'mon.

I will personally give you a cookie if you can prove you did 500 damage and made that much in Cbils. Unless you just used arties and airstrikes and you subtract 80k from that, but that still does not add up. Pics or it didn't happen.

And spell right! Its 'Stupid'

If there's a way of screenshotting or providing links to previous matches then I would happily oblige.

Alas, this game has limited (aka zero) functionality in this respect so I cant post anything.

Press printscreen, then screenshots go in the following directory:

Press 'prtsc' on your keyboard, go to documents, find the MWO file,find the user file, open it up, go to screenshots.

I know how to screenshot >_>

I'm on about now. The game is gone, over, closed. There's no way to view the stats for it so you'll just have to accept my word for it.

Here's an example using my Tagging Spider 5V. It was a close match, but we lost.

The end-match results are low enough to discourage people from playing.

Hit "Prt Scr" on your keyboard. It's that little square thingy above another little square whatchamacallit that says "Insert."

Then, go here: Piranha Games\MechWarrior Online\USER\ScreenShots

Or, you can open something like Microsoft Paint and press Ctrl+V to paste your screenshot into the program. Next, name it and save it. Ta-daa! You did it!

...Have a cookie. :)

That is more than I get while tagging in my Raven before the patch. And I usually have 400 damage or so. O.o
