Huh? Nothing wrong with the economy and its certainly not easier to earn money in other games. UInless they use instant gratification and last you a week because you get bored of being a billionaire.
I got tired of posting screen shots of Victory's with 300-500 damage, 1-4 kills and CBills that were 90-120K
so, yes, the income is NOT what is should be. XP Seems to be twice what it was a year ago. XP can't buy mechs.
Add to that if you drop arty, or a UAV, too many battles where I grossed 30-40K, and we won?
You're incorrect.
And a loss? Or a battle with low damage? Like MOST noobs or below average players get?
Its NO wonder this current event is barely to the 40% discount...we simply do not have, can not keep, can not grow a player base.
You can exploit the system. I got screens of this behavior too!
Grab a light- a nice cheap one thats fast, take a single large laser, charge the enemy, and lock them all for a second (ever see blinking triangles at the start of the match with no real locks?) Some light rush up and grabbed the scout bonus.
Now, spray them all with a single large laser- dont do any real damage. Just get the assists
Next, watch for enemy attacking friendlies and hit them with that single ERLarge IS laser- you get flanking and defending bonuses.
Now go hide till the end of the match. Try and get behind the enemy but do NOT engage. Just lock targets.
then, at the end, Swarm in, and target weak limbs and pop a few off.
Your team loses, or wins and you actually did very little to help that. BUT done right, you have 150K++ paycheck.
how is that better than the heavy who kills and cripples half a dozen mechs turning the battle to victory?

Even you have to admit a lot of players do find the current CBill payouts to be bad, or else these threads would not be made all the time and a clear majority of those that write in these threads agree with the TS. It's basically you and a handful of the same guys that think it's fine.
ding ding
I do quite well. Rare is the match that I do not gross 100K in. Its STILL LOWER than it was 6 months ago.
I am more concerned about the noobs who download the game cause it looks fun, get stomped and can't do crap after the cadet bonus wears off and moves on....
See my thoughts about the current event and our player base above.
