i was doing missions and thinking u get alot of random unwanted missions as u talk to the agents.

now my idea is not to make them random but to let the system generate a pinwall where several agents pin on there missions depending on ur standings u can choose missions wich ones u would like to do and wich not.
but the point is now if an unwanted mission stays for lets say an isk cykle (20 min) untouched the payout for completing it would increase and if still no one touches this mission the payout would increase until someone takes it.
and that could generate an entierly new mission runner profesion that are only hunting those unwonted missions and traveling from 1 side of the galaxy to the other.

well it could make the game a little more realistic and give alot more diversity for mission runers :)
cuz staying in the same system all the time gets boring very fast :D

plz comment on what u think about this

Not a bad idea. Sorta like a Roving Mission Runner, picking up the left over undesirable jobs.


Needs a bit of refining such as a longer cycle time like the agents 4 hr timer. Also said mission should only be allowed to stay available up on the board for like 24 hrs. After that it get's thrown out in order to keep the reward from getting too high. Also any missions declined by the player wouldn't be available on the board for them to pick up later. This would help keep it from being exploited to gain higher rewards.

Anyway, this thread probably should have been posted in the sub forum channel - 'Features and Ideas Discussion'.
