Silver lion rewards and XP (research points) are very low.
I finished the match 13/7 and took a loss in SL (i loss 14k) and only won 19k RP.
In a normal match I earn around 7k SL per aerial kill (with a premium account).
At the event I’m earning 5k, the repair of my fighter jet is almost 12k.
The old Nuclear Thunder mode was incredible as a game mode and, above all, rewarding.
I, with a KDA of almost 2.0, took a loss of 14k sl, that’s not right.
I paid to play this match even though been positive in KD.
For example, at that point in the match, I was 8/4 and i only had 9k SL in profit.
And facing other fighters is actually the least risky activity in the event; CAS, SEAD/DEAD, and anti-ship missions are far riskier, and consequently, the rewards are more punishing.
Lets not pretend that this is accidental with the rewards. We know Gaijin just wants to limit the amount of people who play the mode and use those numbers to say “Look, the player base prefers the regular mode” as a justification to shelf this mode too. In reality people play the other modes to make SL since this mode bleeds you dry of it. im probably down 200k SL so far and ive been top 5 on my team every game.
With the J-15 on the American side, I can barely take off from the aircraft carriers.
And I still have to face the Buk with 48cm.
I lose SL in every match too.
