The community received new weapons wich render the lower class Interceptors pushovers, thus less dangerous thus worthless. A few adept players with enhanced weaponry smoke a Cyclops before she loses all of her hearts now. You know what 5-6 Guardian plasma chargers can do to them especially now that we can land accurate shots bc we can scan them from afar?
Moreover please remember that the enhanced gimbalelled AX multicannons are effectively hitscans now, you can put more on your bigger ship and scan the Interceptor hearts from 2 km - Commanders already report that full enhanced AX multicannon Kraits OBLITERATE Cyclopses.
Not mentioning the starports, other commanders, and AX fighters - Nobody can believe that we get this OP without adjustment of the payouts. Practically you will get the SAME financial rewards as before bc you are more effective now.
And narratively speaking there is a war going on in which the Bubble gets poorer in every sense and we, and only we the mercenaries get richer- it makes sense to adjust prices bc of the relative loss of threat of the Scouts and lower Interceptors, and bc of the political turmoil in the Bubble.
This is stil the best payout a player can find - they won't go anywhere, and they won't get poorer. The update only incentivises players to join forces -which we can do more effectively since the changes on the galaxy map where we can see the 5 most advanced systems regarding the weekly cycle.
