sir emi, could you please up the encounter rewards for galaxy view or something? at least for gold transport missions?
it's a little lame doing a gold transport mission that is so supposed to be worth 'such a fortune' and you lose 1 of your weakest ships, which also happens to be DOUBLE the reward for the encounter itself.

Yea, the rewards are pretty low, I mean, I did one gold encounter for 8B power (that's what it said I encountered) and I only got like, 500M. They do need to go up.

Well I mean I certainly wouldn't mind if the reward went up, I can see why Emi set it so low... It is meant to be a random little encounter, where you can earn a little bonus for taking a risk. With the Galaxy, you will randomly run inton them occasionally, find a small bonus here and there for a risk, don't think of it as something you can hunt to make a living off of.. just a way to say, pay back a debt or earn some quick cash unexpectedly...

What they're saying is that you currently loose money by doing them. Which is, of course, counter productive.

That, and the galaxy missions are low so their reward won't be too high anyway, but a 100M encounter should give you more then 4M credits as a reward, especially since the ships are stronger then anything in that price range. But yes, the losing something worth double the reward is annoying and a major setback.

iv dont a 30mil encounter and got 150 turns
then did a 15billion encounter and got 450 turns
then did a 2 billion power and got 450 turn... i think thats a bit out of balance, 15 billion should give WAY turns that that!

yes, but there has to be a limit on turns/ black hole; I think around 700-800 turns should be maximum

sir e, the way this is looking, to my knowledge, is that these encounters are going the same way the bounties do, but the problem with that is, is that we DID do what the encounter/whatever told us to, there is no 'you only killed half, so you get half' that is bounties, NOT encounters.
I see no other possible explanation, except maybe that 450 turns is the max, which is understandable.

The problem is, I can get 1B credits out of a mission contract that isn't even that high in power, but I get less then 500M in one that is in the 20B power.
