Did CCP change the way we loose faction standing? I took a storyline mission for scope "shipyard theft" and received a -50% sec hit to Caldari and -43% to Amarr but only received 8% boost to Gallentie
This seems way out of line.
Is this a bug? Is anyone else getting huge sec hits also?

Storyline Missions DO NOT simply "improve" your faction standings.
Storyline Missions "alter" your faction standings.
No matter who you take one from, you'll anger someone.
Interbus was good long ago (for most empires, some more than others), but last time I checked, Interbus never gave storyline missions (Confirmed by CCP at the time).
However, it has been a long time. Anyone getting storyline missions from interbus these days?

Seems like somebody at CCP left out a decimal point again.

I never worked out the details (never tried to either), but the increase does "within" empire seems more than the decrease.
My hunch is that assuming no skills, increase and decrease are balanced, but keep in mind, a lot of the decrease for empire storyline missions is with NPC pirate factions.
Skills "seem" to affect thing in a purely positive manner. With good skills you get bonuses on the amount of faction standing you gain, but no extra penality on loses.
Another thing to keep in mind, is that the closer a certain standing is to 10 (or -10), the greater the effort to move it closer to 10 (or -10).
If memory servers, as you get high standing, its also easier to lose it in large chunks by doing missions for opposing factions, but I'm not sure about it. Its been a long time.

This has got to be a bug. Before the patch I ran a mission that gave me a 8.4% boost to Gallente but only gave me a -4.2% sec hit with Caldari State. After the patch I ran a story line that gave me the same boost to Gallente but a -50% sec hit to Caldari State.
These two storylines were only days apart. If this is not a bug I will be -10 with Amarr and Caldari by the end of the month.
And yes I have bug reperted it.

It is a bug, already reported and know to CCP. Next storyline check what really change as my impression is that the standings change in the regular manner and only the values in show transactions are borked.

The real faction standing increase/decrease is as always, that big numbers that are shown have no other impact than the small ones before the update, so nothing to worry about.
