*sigh* first mission after the patch a kill mission with 1 thief and 2 escorts. killed them but thy didn't drop the data sheet :( I thought that was fixed weeks ago... oh well... I'll prolly fail the mission as well cause I didn't have any data sheets nearby and by the looks of it the quick restart.....will not be so quick :(
But... I actualy like the patch... Patience is a virtue peeps

Could you use data sheets from the market? I heard that they were going to nerf that ability away...but maybe they didn't.
Worth trying anyway.

Same here with my first combat mission. The objective was not dropped. I have filed a petition and stop agent missions for now.

Did ANY container drop from the NPC? This has been extensively tested on our test servers and has been working fine there. The only issues I've personally encountered is sometimes it's hard to see the container or lag causes it to spawn a bit late. But using the autoscanner should always fix that.
Oh and by the way, currently the mission loot item is always located in the last NPC that you destroy. Kind of silly when you are supposed to destroy a convoy and the escort ships drop the loot, but this is something we have on our TO-DO list to fix.

They still dropped the usual junk for me, just no data sheets. Pressing alt, and using the scanner showed no other cans close by. I failed the mission and im guessing thats the reason my lvl 3 wont offer anymore missions (lack of standing)
btw.. are the new research skills supposed to drop in batches of 13? |

I'd think not. I will talk to Papa Smurf about that tomorrow. The time bonus rewards are based on value most of the time, so if someone is recieving 13 skill packs this could mean the value for the item is way off, but I'd need to confirm that first with the person who put in those values.

My first level 3 agent mission was to go to a pirate base and rescue 21 prisioners. I whent to the pirate base and killed all the pirates but only a few containers dropped. I check all the containers as well as the 3 spawning containers around and I go no prisoners. The only thing suspicious and could be a bug is I got Biosmass instead. This is the first time I ever got a freigher item as loot.
After that, I filed a petition and quit the agent mission. I then went back to my agent, but was told I need to improve my standing.

In the only kill mission i've had so far, the mission requirements didn't mention getting anything from the pirate, just to kill them, and they only dropped normal stuff in one can anyway.
I thought at the time that the new system was just being better and that it automatticly knew when you'd killed it, but the agent didn't recognise the kill and i had to cancel the mission.

Zrakor, they are not spawning cans. My mission was to kill an industrial ship and it's escort, the escort spawned a can then I killed the industrial and no can. The escort only had normal loot, none of the mission objectives.
Also, the time bonus was 13 units of Rocket Science, so it seems as if the tables are off.

Zrakor, Just to clarify some things about my case atleast:
-The rats DID drop cans that had normal loot; the thief had ammo and his escorts a laser crystal and missiles.
-even after buying data sheets the agent didn`t recognise the mission as a success...BUT... His rejection was in the line "and what about the 3 ppl I tould you to kill?" so it might be something more than just failure to drop an item as he didn`t even recognise the kills.
-and something that may be wrong but I can`t check out cause I`m at work; my timebonus for that mission would have been 2000+ transmitters. Can`t check the npc price for those but it seemed a little too much for a timebonus.
Thanx and keep up the good work

I did a kill mission / mercenary mission
It didn't drop a data sheet.
It still completed the mission.

Yes... But were you supposed to get a data sheet to complete it? There are kill missions that don`t require evidence to be brought back and that is not our case here.

Similar problem here - I had to take 5 reports to a station 2 jumps away. Did this and spoke to the agent from the destination office, saying I had completed the mission - Agent thanked me and gave the ISK and the ship module.
Returned to agents office and tried to get another job - was told that I had not yet completed the previous mission.
I have petitioned it but as I now at work and the mission is due to time out in the next hour, I dont hold much hope

I had the same mission in AMI to kill the Theif and his two escorts. I actually had to kill them twice becuase I ran out of ammo. Neither time did any of them drop data sheets. I bought some, went back to the agent and was told he expected 3 heads, I had 4 for him.
Then I lost the mission and the agent.

This is not a bug. The prisoners were executed because you weren't fast enough, and you must have recieved the popup message telling you this (has been tested on Chaos). You can complete the mission with the biomass, you just won't get as high of a reward, and your agent will not be as happy but still better than failing it.
Note: The killtimer for the prisoners is not the same as the timer for the mission, it's a random time between X and Y minutes within the total mission time frame.

I have a similar problem with a level 3 kill mission i had to go kill 3 Depredators and a Ruffian to complete the mission. Did this and returned to talk the agent all hes says is "i asked for 4 heads"
I got a screen shot of the mission description the bouties and the refusal of the agent ready for a petition tonight. Gave up and went to sleep so it will have to wait till i get in from work for now.
