I'm just wondering how the majority of forum uses feel this would effect the game.
When I say high I'm seeing 100s of billions just to be clear.
Before the isd say F&I I'm not suggesting a change I'm asking opinions on how people feel it would effect us. A Dark time comes. A time of terror comes. My time. If it offends you. Stop me. |

You do realize that, should this come to pass, you just volunteered to be first on the list, right? Bumping, leave it alone. |

Just to be more clear, how many hundreds of billions?
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |

Its still an equation of isk for gank ship vs. 20% of your CURRENT ship's worth. If you have billions in Bounty on you, but you're in a 1 million isk ship, whoever kills you only gets 200k of that bounty, no one will get the full bounty (Unless you fly a ship worth 5x your bounty amount).

No - it will just be open session for griefing people to the point they have no choice but to stop playing the game.
The only way I can see this bounty system working in any shape or form as I mentioned in another thread is if theres an incentive to disable the concord response to being agressed in highsec - while it was a silly example my example being say you could get 4x the reward for killing NPCs in highsec missions but with the tradeoff that if you had a bounty on you, you could be agressed by anyone without concord intervening. |

I agree it will turn into open season for griefing, however just giving the mission bears more isk for what they do isn't going to solve this. If it turned into 'someone with negative security status and a bounty could be shot by anyone,' that has more possibility. I do like the idea of there being less of a Concord response due to the higher amounts of bounty placed, though the amounts associated with this, I dunno.

Rediar I know how it works,
assuming it only dropped a small fraction of the isk pools amount the FFA stats would hang around till it dropped below the FFA thresh hold. A Dark time comes. A time of terror comes. My time. If it offends you. Stop me. |

By FFA, do you mean Free For All? If its not that, I dunno what you are referring to. Otherwise, FFA will only occur when the high bounty target is flying something worth a decent amount of isk, so the ships killing them make a profit even with Concord intervention.

***EDIT*** Don't forget, I think I read somewhere everyone on the killmail gets a portion of the bounty as well. And don't forget about selling killrights from the bounty target. |

I think u might be missing what I was asking.
Assuming player A is acquiring a ever in creasing bounty for asshattery and some day it reached point that makes him a have permanent suspect flag (FFA for anyone to attack) till his bounty drops below this threshold.
I'm asking the question how do you think this would effect us. A Dark time comes. A time of terror comes. My time. If it offends you. Stop me. |

Reading the Dev Blog, nothing is mentioned about FFA being given for an increasing bounty, nor in the CrimeWatch one, so where do you get a permanent flag from? As far as I know, you only get a temporary Flag for Criminal Acts for aggressive acts like the old system. You still can't just kill someone due to their bounty without Concord intervention that I've seen, so there is still the loss of the bounty hunter's ship to be calculated from the cost of the 20% value of the bounty itself. And don't forget, asshattery =/= loss of sec status, you could be a +7 sec status and still have billions in bounties on you now.

This concept (and bounty hunting in general as a 'profession) is only viable if the target has a negative sec status. i.e. Players should be able to avoid the huge negative of being griefed by a big alliance laid bounty (going sec positive). But on the other hand being able to pursue bountied players with negative sec status in hisec without kill rights is a must have IMHO -- this trading of kill rights is very very meh...just you watch....

having a huge bounty means people need to stop being **** and finally kill this guy who knows how to aggravate people, not that he should be given a penalty for getting so many idiots to waste their isk on putting bounty on the guy |
