Reward bug in Protect station mission

[Ikaruga]

Hi

I made a protect station mission : a few small ships and a M6 appeared, when I killed the M6 :

-I see no message of "reward + x" like in patrol misssion

- They reward me 3 million credits just for a M6, while they reward me 440000 credits for killing one in a patrol mission.

I don't know if it's the right place to post a bug or not.

They've changed them in TC to be more like patrol mission, instead of having a flat rate.
That is normal.

It is normal that a M6, when killed rewards 3 million credits in a case and 440000 in another ?

it depends on the ship and what it is equipped with and the difficulty level of the mission hard difficulty missions payout more because they are well harder?

you probably got more because the ship was equipped with stronger shields.

It's just that in 1.4 patch only patrol payouts were toned down. So the same ship in a station defense mission pays out more than in a patrol. That was wanted because the patrol missions were really a gold mine, you could easily get 500M for 2 patrols in the same sectors. Now there are only the build missions that give insane rewards...

Since 1.4, yes.

Ok, I still think it's a bit strange and that M6 should reward 440 000 in both cases, but since you confirm it's not a bug ...
