So, where are our 200 Iso rewards?

  • Ok so my math is more like....

    Assume you do not skip. Maximum ISO benefit.
    -10 penalties take no effect.
    30 point bonus us constant.
    Assume equal chances of 70/140 - 100/200
    S1= 70/140 +30/-10
    S2= 100/200 -10

    70+30=100
    140+30=170

    Therefore S2 yields a higher payout at maximum benefit. S1 however has the decreasing yield before reaching the penalty phase.

    However with S1 and decreasing yield you get say 160 after 1 skip.
    With S2 you do 1 skip (-10) then a victory +200 it yields 190.

    After 2 skips S1 is 150
    S2 is 180

    3 skips S1 is 140 (even)
    S2 is 170

    -10 to each for every skip after.

    S2 (the devs original plan before our complaints) to me seems like it overall would have had a more positive impact. The only benefit of the change implemented due to our complaints was it *seems* like a reward instead of a penalty, it is for the most part, but a lesser reward than the "100/200 -10" set seen in S2.

    It was 70/100/140/200, not 100/200.
  • @nemek ok yeah I was thinking 100/200.
    You're right though. At 70/100/140/200 then the 30/140 +30 scenario comes out better.
  • Sigh, why couldn't they have given us the +30 no skip bonus, AND the 100/200 ISO reward lineup as well?

    Can't they give us both?
  • I'm sure they could, but that's twice as much as they want to increase the iso flow.
