Difference in Rewards?

[Razefar]

Me and my friend were doing some runs on Cyclone St. and we were noticing something odd about the rewards. Anyone else getting it where they get a significantly smaller amount of reward for completing the map than their friends? For example, we will complete all the objectives yet the difference in rewards will be anywhere from 1000 to 2000 bucks for my friend.

I've run it in many different scenarios, at first we thought it was a lvl catch up mechanic, until it did the same when we were the same level. Then we ran it with him providing the items to see if that me providing the setup was making me earn less rewards. We did a few other runs just to see if it was consistent but we can't seem to think of why he is getting more rewards than me when we are both contributing just as much to the map as the other (excluding items). My friend is consistently getting paid more than me and I was thinking it might have something to do with our own "funds" but even his fund exceed mine by a considerable margin.

So does anyone have the same issue?

My friends and I just started playing together and experienced the same thing. With three of us including myself, I would always get the higher payout. I was not the host, but I did put gear in. We were all level 1 so we did not assume it had anything to do with level. On easy, I would get about $300 more than them consistently.

My guess would be not all members picked the three clues or forgot to lock in the ghost type in the tab menu after discovering said clues.

If someone dies that usually removes money as well from the end total.

Played a couple runs today with a full party and the only time we had a difference in money earned is when we guessed the ghost the type. Those that got it correct earned more than those who guessed wrong.

This happened with my group of 3 counting myself. I figured the new single player reward modifier bugged for me because I was getting SIGNIFICANTLY more exp/money than my friends upon full clears. I had played a couple single player games to see reward amounts then hopped right into multiplayer and seemed to still be getting heavy rewards. Had gotten around 140 exp and $4000 for a full clear of the 3rd map on easy.

Definitely sounds linked to the 1.5x singleplayer bonus. Do you know if the person hosting the lobby was the one getting the bonus or did it seem random?

[Razefar]

It was a private game between me and my friend, there were times that he was getting at least 250 dollars per objective more than me, and some even more than that. If putting in evidence factors into your earnings I haven't noticed it, I mean lvl 50+ and the only thing I've noticed factor into that is whether you guessed/discovered the correct ghost. Outside that the optional objectives were the main determining factor for how much money we got outside the baseline of finding out the ghost. btw we typically play on Medium so the rewards are at minimum 2x baseline.

[Razefar]

Not like I'm complaining or anything but hearing how much my friend was getting per successful game was really confusing the both of us since we were literally both doing the same thing (outside of putting in items since i typically hosted all the items). What happened to change that was we switched who the game host was/made a new private lobby and the rewards went back to normal.

[Razefar]

Just played a solo game today after reading one of the comments, I'm thinking it is the Singleplayer bonus being added to the rewards because the payout seemed to match up pretty closely if not exactly to what my friend was getting. So it might be my friend somehow was getting the singleplayer bonus modifier instead for our multiplayer games.

my wife was playing solo then she joined my game she was still getting the extra rewards, we was seeing what the difference was when she was getting more than i was on each board. it might be a carry over glitch.
