You will be missed.... Goodbye ole friend..... I put you on every Mech that I had at least 1 energy weapon and received an extra 30-60k C-bills per game.....



/sniff... you will be missed

What ... cant have you making all that money. Paul says get some premium time you freeloader.

[KharnZor]

lol you needed tag? scrub tier

[Chuck Jager]

There is CHEESE, and then there is GOVERNMENT CHEESE. It is kinda funny that PGI is doing away with TAG entitlements the same day the US tries to vote in a more conservative government. Tin foil hats, black helicopters and IS quirks - where does PGI sit in the New World Order.

What? You needed tag to get some money?

Heck my Awesome never had to use a tag to get +150k of income.

How about getting another 50k on top of that with just 1 TAG equiped?

Don't worry, a PGI rep will be along to fix it soon.

And hopefully now that the bugged up income stream is vanishing, PGI will increase the other income streams to compensate.

Here's what we've been told before. Everything is fine. I'm making more c-bills now. Learn to play because you're doing it wrong.

I'm under the impression that earnings were reduced after the new rewards were put in. They said the average earnings are roughly the same, but that doesn't account for all the new Cent-AH and Atlas-S I see running around in every match. So if ~20% of players are getting 30% more, and the total earning are around the same, then one can say that the other 80% are getting up to ~30% less.

If I do my part, I can easily get 120K with a win or 90K with a loss before premium time and Hero mechs. There are time where I get rolled early in the game and don't make as much but most of the time it is above 100K. When you add in the Hero mech and premium time wins easily goes over 200K.

If you perform consistently the win or the loss has little meaning in the overall earnings.

I'm just really sad that my NARC/TAG/ECM/BAP Raven is no longer paying out like a mech sporting real weapons. Might as well pull off all that stuff, replace the NARC with an SRM6, the TAG with a MLas, and drop the BAP for engine size. Shooting robots is the only thing that matters! E-War is relegated to a single 1.5 ton piece of equipment, and everything else should be lumped in with a largely ineffective weapons system.

I got approximatly the same before and after the last patch, without resorting to TAG-farming. I felt no decrease or increase in rewards. The top scores and the lows were a bit more extreme, but on average the rewards were the same.

That's the difference between a warrior and a sellsword.

120K is small for an average victory. Pre-change, I was earning 150-175K per average victory without boosts or hero mechs.

Now that TAG earnings are gone for non-LRM mechs, the overall earning has been reduced.

Welcome to the Paul-economy. Billed as a boost to c-bill earnings.

[Rando Slim]

I don't get it......what happened to TAG that makes it worse now? You can still make bonus money with it.

[Angel of Annihilation]

Still made an extra 15k with TAG last match so it can still print money though apparently inflation has taken its toll hehe.

Champion mechs get a bonus to xp, not cbills.
