I realy hate this!

Post by bluenova123 »

Ok to day stim attacked me he had no bounty or cargo he alerted me and wouldnt stop so i blew him up and got a bounty and he repeated untill my bounty was huge. So why does the bounty thing work in a way you cant defend yourself? So make it the attacker can only get a bounty. Also please lower mine down to around 50,000cr that what it was before stim attacked me. So why not just let the trader just give up there cargo do to that is what this bounty system implies :!:

You think thats bad blue? I mistakenly fired a single laser at your friend decahwn only to see him immediately and intentionally hit f12 to get me a 550k bounty. The only thing you can do is restrain from touching the tab button when near anyone without a bounty. I did this for about a month with success until I blew it yesterday.

erm...for the most part, people in shuttles are new players.

blowing up new players = possibly making them leave the game. which is bad unless your actually trying to make them leave in which case you shoulden't even be allowed to play.

stim however, isen't a new player.

this is true, but shooting at new players in a fun and role playery manner without killing them could be slightly amusing for the new player, and entice them to keep playing. i said COULD

Stim did this to me as well. I tapped him once and bingo... 450k bounty. Doesnt seem right but ok. If he had done it in free space with partners someone could have cashed in. I see it as my mistake.

Bluenova It takes a long time to earn 550k.

Look the shuttle was Stimutacs (not a newb) and he attacked me and wouldnt stop alerting me forceing me to kill him and he repeated. Ok; also that was before he asked to join the NR. Oh ya the only thing i could of done was go afk for a few hours!

Blue, to be quite onest, what exactly do you get apart from seeing defencless newbs die? anybody in an interplanetry shuttle probably wouldn't have a bounty and it definantly wouldn't have a cargo. so i ask you again-
WHATS THE USE?
thank you

Scarred emu you shouldn't talk about things you know nothing about,Stim is not a newb.Blue,going afk probably would have been the better choice.The bounty rules have been in place now for long enough that most people (except newbs)should know them and know the consequences of shooting someone down.If you had just ignored him I 'm sure he would have gone away after he got bored of lighting up your shields.Instead you chose to fire on him ,knowing he could do you no harm other than delaying you in what you wanted to do at the moment.

I have to agree with Bluenova here.

Hate to be harsh. But, it is pretty darn silly that defending yourself means invuring a bounty. The first person to attack should be the only person that should incure a bounty.

By putting a bounty on anyone that fights you are pretty much tieing peopls hands preventing them from defending themselves. And that just is wrong.

Bluenovas issue with the game really does need to be addressed.

Alfred is correct. This issue was corrected with the .51 release.
