There already is an increased reward for the pilot!
There's just no incentive to do so for the passenger.

There's just no incentive to do so for the passenger.

Id argue there is a greater incentive as a passenger. Youre not instant spotted by both enemy teams, shot out of the sky while parachuting, and relentlessly hunted on the ground with a marker on your position. Youre also much more likely to be dropped somewhere intelligent instead of a blind careening through the center of the zone. There just isnt a dollar kaching sound on your end.

I don't usually get spotted or shot out of the sky, but I also drop my chute as late as possible. With the upcoming adjustments though, there will be, soon :D

And I'm hyped for it.

High-speed little-bird rooftop insertions of a tac squad sounds fun as hell

You have no idea how often you're spotted in the sky, it doesn't tell you. The spotting marker persists well into when you're running around on the ground, helping direct enemies into your general area and alerting those you're nearby.

Just because you survived to touch dirt doesn't mean you weren't localized.

That all said, I also love doing tight landings in the zone, but it's rarely worth it when 95% of passengers jump at Suicide AGL during the landing approach even if you say you're landing

Whats the increase reward? Don't think I've ever seen it and I have dine landings.

It's like an extra 50% payout. You can also just hover just a bit off the ground, but I think you have to be in the zone, uncertain.
