Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Alright guys as you know Bounty Hunting was supposed to become a profession once Retribution got implemented and.... well not really.I've been in the Bounty hunting/ assassination contracts business for 2 years already and the profit you make is not something that will keep ur 3-4 accounts running,but its highly satisfying when you fulfill well payed contracts or grab a good spike of bounty from ur target. However isk is not the problem here, the thing is that there are no efficient(INGAME!!!) tracking tools out there. I've been relying on locator agents since day one and well... wasting a character sitting in a station and information that comes after 4-5 mins, NOT COOL(especially if you are trying to tail nomadic targets) ! What i will try to introduce today is a new deployable unit that will work as following:

1) It will have 1-2 mins deployment timer
2) It will work with Light years up to 8 LY of locating range.(from the system you deployed the unit in)
3) You can reach the 8 LY Range with skills that will be required for that specific Mobile Unit.
4) The target you are trying to locate must have Bounty placed on its head, which means in order to try locating somebody you have to place 100000 bounty on them if the target doesnt have one ;)
5)The tracking process will take up to 30-60 secs(depending on meta level of the mobile unit)
6) The cooldown of the Mobile unit once the tracking process is complete must be well balanced so abuse can be avoided.

Let me know what you think guys and press SUBSCRIBE if you like the idea peace! o7

Daaamn ! Bro you are ginius. In that case we will need loki tokis one for u and one for ur locator agent.

To:

1.) would be okay
2.) Okay too
3.) Why not
4.) useless because you can bounty every player with 111.111 ISK
5.) Way to fast (6-10 min) is better because your to lazy to fly to an agent or can´t use the next to you (time depends on the meta)
6.) No Cooldown, the unit should disapear after the search.

Additions:

Price: Should be produceable (Meta0/ Meta6) cost schould be around 10 Million for the Meta 0 and 20 Million for meta 6.

What you wanna a easy way to find targets without doing much for a few isk is not what the game needs.

In the future, radios do not exist.

True facts.

Way arent we funding this?


one thing, locating a lpeyr should cost a bit more if this would be implemented :P


But yeaaa ..... this should be a thing!

-1 to the 30-60 seconds, space is a large place with millions of inhabitants and even with computers it takes awhile to trace through the records to determine where a specific character is at.

-1 the current system is better if we just give it a few tweaks.
Shorten time required about 10% maybe 20%
Eliminate the use restrictions for a specific agent and replace it with an increasing ISK fee instead.
Lower the first use cost slightly but then it increases by about 25% each time you use the agent. There would be a timer on this as well so if you did not use that agent for say 30 min then the cost for services starts over.
