The coming expansion looks very interesting compared to previous couple expansions, although the video doesn't give us any real info about what bounty hunting is going to be like. I hope you try to be as unrestrictive as possible and let players do what they want with it as much as possible.

Hey CCP Pepsi Queen, i have a comment regarding outlaws, such as myself, and the coming bounty mechanics.

I can amass hundreds of people with killrights against me in a month,
but there's no point in buying these,
because i can be shot at anyway ... :(

I feel so left out... :(

Killrights on you won't be worth much, but bounties on you will be effective.

lol it will be a funny way for miners to prioritize their neighbors over themselves. "Why shoot me when Jim over here has a 200mil bounty on his head?"

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




Actually in my experience the posters on C&P usually have a thick skin and can take some smacking towards each other.It's more the null alliance buds that have HUGE toes in regards to posts , MATE Blink

Nope, not at all, sadly. The changes don't really have any effect regarding myself.
Actually, for the people, it's even worse now.

Back then, when i had 100 million isk bounty, i played catch with the locals.
In future, when i have 100 million isk bounty, there's not even a point in doing this anymore,
because i don't fly thing worth enough for people to claim an amount that pays off to play.

I loved to "accidentially" get killed so somebody gets the money,
but with these changes i have to see if this still has any fun left in it.

And besides ... i never ever *really* have to care about people trying to get me ...

Yep, it's not worthy any more to kill your pod with an alt. And this is good. Now people will run after you because no matter what you'll do THEY "can" get the bounty.

So let me get this straight:
The new system replaces public bounties with private bounties, and this is bad because more people will be shooting at you. Did I get that right?

The interesting question is if I just decide to quit the game and put a 150 bill bounty on some random highsec bear in the process for ***** and giggles - would that be considered griefing?

ANYONE can now have a bounty put on them.

This does not give automatic aggro rights and if attacked in highsec the aggressor will still be concordokken or attacked by anyone else under the new aggro system.

Bounty now pays out for ship kills as well as pods and you get a percentage of the bounty which is calculated based on the value of the ship you blew up.

Corps and Alliances can now have a bounty put on them and very single member of that organisation pays out every time they get killed.

Why is that so hard for people to understand? Reading is easy!Roll

Exactly...just because you put a large bounty on a miner doesn't mean someone is going to take the risk of being CONCORDED to kill them for that bounty.

Bounties for all! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2279821#post2279821
