Nowhere does it say you can be shot by just anybody. A bounty does not automatically translate to now anybody can shoot you.

Having a bounty is not an issue... don't know why people care so much about it.

At least not shoot a random pilot more than they can now, eg aggression and all. It would however give pilots more of an incentive to do so if they get something more out of it I think.

But yeah very unlikely that bounty=free to shoot, else simply putting a bounty on SWA would give a ton of legal targets right off. So a pilot still have to suffer the concord response kinda, or at least that's how I'd imagine it until we have more info.

Have you considered being respectful and polite towards others, instead of acting like a gigantic douchebag? That way people would be less willing to pay huge sums of money to get your sorry ass driven out of the game. If you get a bounty because of your in-game actions, then I'd consider it just a consequense of your actions and a part of normal gameplay.

I welcome this consequence.
BRING IT.

wow, this all sounds really stupid. It's more of a legal assassination system, rather than a bounty system.

The wishlist is pretty much complete...

Forum posters who alt post Soundwave does not like. He wants social consequences and for people to debate what they are doing that brought it down. People thinking about the enemies that they make.



People have to be nice (on the forums) to each other to avoid getting a bounty on their head? Shocked
Also wouldn't that just massively push people to use alts here?

Not sure if I like. What?

I think Soundwave more meant that in the way of "if you upset someone you should face the consequences, be it on the forum or in-game" kinda. But yeah, I can see more pilots using alts on the forum to avoid landing bounty on themselves, especially in like C&P Sad

But we'll see how CCP is figuring all this out and I'm sure we'll have plenty of opportunities to voice our thoughts Smile

It's interesting either way.

You guys should probably wait for the official Dev blog before panicking and jumping to conclusions. Reading the EVE news article, some things are very strangely written, other things are very off the mark and seem to have been taken completely out of context for what Soundwave will have explained.
The dev blog Is written, and is ready to be released very soon.

How can you guys read that (trully appalling) article and the linked dev blog and come to these conclusions? Nowhere in either does it actually say how bounties will even work.

It's the nature of people to speculate on the info they have available. Since all they currently can rely on is hearsay, that is what they use to speculate and draw conclusions from. If you want to manage this behavior, you're going to have to come out with some concrete facts about the mechanic. Otherwise the article is still the only solid info available, so people will speculate based on it.

Why should a dev care one iota if someone is alt posting on a forum? The only reason it should matter, as far as I can guess, is that the particular dev isn't neutral to the player base and has a stake in the ingame politics.
