yeah, whatever his setup... I got the same problem this morning on the first game after patch, which was a loss for me and would've netted me a meager 5k XP, but the x2 bonus kicked in unexpectedly at that -Loss- and doubled that. Needless to say that the bonus was nowhere to be seen at the first win.
Is that a new issue?
P.S.: 3 pilots... that tells me a lot about recent CV performance...
