Please fix mission payouts...

[Jinx]

the reason we don t have higher payed missions is - something igiss said last time.....

missions and spawning of NPCs stresses the server. - lag and instabilities are the results. - if missions payed as well as trading, most ppl would do them instead - and so the stability would suffer much. - the missions have such a low payout to PREVENT people from taking missions too much.

afraid that it ( was ) a technical issue that missions are not payed well. - maybe things have changed and its possible to support more misisons now..... . - but those were the reasons last time this topic was mentioned.

If that's the case, then they need to drop the costs on all ammunition to zilch. I shouldnt come out of a mission with three times less cash than I got paid to finish it.

i must try to start a char solely off of missions at some point always got bored and had to transfer credits. I also agree ammo should be reduced but the problem with that is it reduces the cost of PVP drastically.

I sometimes pay newbies to do missions, for me (whenever i need some junker rep in NY) an extra 200k goes a long way for a 20k mission... colorado silver mining sudenly isn't all that neat...

I just took a 74k mission on my blood dragon bomber from Kyoto. That's about the highest paying mission I've been able to get from there so far.

By the time I got back to kyoto after having finished said mission, I had to spend nearly 50k to restock mines, countermeasures, torpedoes, and cruise disruptors. So in total I only made around 25-30k tops for a mission that took around 15 minutes, when a trader doing a standard route would have made millions in that time frame. I'm not using any weakling ship either, bombers are up there with the VHF's...

Missions are pointless for anything but rep right now. It's ridiculous that a fighter or bomber pilot barely makes enough money back for repairs and ammo after doing the top missions available at his base - how is that pilot ever supposed to afford improvements for his ship?

Not to mention that most NPC's regenerate hull faster than you can bring them down with anything short of class 9 guns or codenames, these missions take forever to complete because of the infinite regen alone.

I know it isnt a big top concern for anyone, but it needs to get fixed. Missions should be paying 5-10 times what they do now for the amount of effort they take compared to the reward. Not everyone has the time to trade for hours on end even if it does get you rich - I get a half an hour to an hour at a time between RL crap to play here, and I'd really prefer to spend it RP'ing and doing something enoyable rather than hitting F3 like a mindless dolt on a trade route for 30 minutes.

I agree. I dont liek trading to. Missions should be worth the time you spend on them.

If multiple NPCs destabilize the server, then alright, let the max payouts stay as they are.

But let ammo cost peanuts!
