So, the fear of the unknown was you're not worth ten million?

There just isn't anything that can be said!

Bounties are street cred...how ridiculous. Bounties are digital nailbiting, put on people in starter systems by noobs who think they're being cute, or their "clever" counterparts "helping" them with the tutorials. It's so absurd, any adult would yank the system once they'd seen it being used in such an infantile fashion. However, some adults and I sharply disagree on many things, apparently.

But, yeah. Let's raise the ante here. Bounty Removal? How do we get CCP to:

REMOVE THE BOUNTY SYSTEM ENTIRELY?



I actually agree with you, it's a completely useless system.

Players also place bounties on others outside of that system, which shows that system is largely redundant.

I wasted 1.2 billion ISK by throwing 10 million bounty on 110+ persons in jita.

Your game is boring.

There have been interesting ideas floating around but I am sure after null space is a fun playground again stuff like that might get looked at. At this point it is the added benefit that if you kill someone anyway, you get your ammo costs refunded.




If you can come up with a system that's not trivially exploited with alts of the player who is bountied, then we'd love to see it.

It would be better to have a trivially exploitable system like the old one than the current one that has no functiinality at all.

The easy way make jumpclone fly jump to your clone fly in low sec let you get pod killed done. To claim the bounty ask friend done. Not that hard.

The very idea of a bounty on a person who can be "caught" dead or alive with little consequence is kind of stupid IMHO. Bounty used to be to send people to jail or kill them in a rather permanent fashion. I can't send a capsuler to jail or really kill him in this game so the system will either always be useless to any would-be bounty hunter or gamed to hell and back by the guy under bounty.

Those of us who remember the trivially exploitable system that used to exist can confirm that yeah no it wasn't better.

haha sure actually I've been told by some more senior players that most will not risk a fight for 10 million isk the unknown would be I might just pop you for trying now that is the unknown and since I started this game with over 12 Billion isk it is a possibility, This is not my first space shooter.

As for the Bounty system pfft!! Please!

Bounties mean nothing. Why remove that which does not matter?




Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Well........just make it so that a bounty kill costs the toon a % of skill points.
The percentage being tied to his total S.P. and the value of his pod, not his ship.
The damn ship should have nothing to do with it.
If killed by an alt, a corp member, an alliance member, or a blue, then triple the S.P. loss.
