Title: Bounties
Post by: Tiberious Thessalonia on 04 Dec 2012, 09:05
So who has placed bounties on who so far?  I know Aphoxema G seemed to be placing 100k isk bounties on everyone who said something in OOC, who didn't have one before.

I placed a 40 million ISK bounty on The Syneose Accord!

I put a bit on Villore Accords, SOTF, DnD and a few other FedMil corps as a proactive 'thanks for making my life easier' to any who might kill them.  As far as I can tell they're returning the favour, but only with big wig CalMil corps. 

Warzone just got more interesting.

I am kicking myself for not having thought of this myself. There's now Anonymous Bounty services. Pay them (and a commission I assume) the bounty and name the target and they'll set the bounty without your name ever coming up. Delightfully enough, I found out through someone putting a ten million bounty on my Jindustrialist, anonymously. Still a tiny sum but at least we're starting to get close to justifying that giant Wanted sign ruining my profile picture.

There's plenty of room below the picture for a Wanted icon/text, no need to smear it across the picture.

Anyway, it would seem the bounty system is starting to become a lot less 'special' than it's previous iteration. Far more useful, but so far it seems to largely be a "lulz, u has bunty no" feature. I am a bit sad that I didn't get mine for IC shenanigans, though. That'd have made it a bit more fun.

Anonymous services add yet another third party service (and potential scam) to the rich landscape of EVE.  Over all i am immensely happy with this patch as it has basically put policing our kind firmly in our own hands outside of a key few areas. 

Also bounties + faction warfare have made the 'zone hilariously fun.  Was about to break and leave, then things got a whole lot more fun.  very happy over all.  Industry patch now please to perfect the duality of existence I suffer!

Got to get my bounty higher. It's indicative of my worth as a person.

Part of me is waiting to see how high bounties on RF pilots get... 

Part sad (as I love their service) part cackling in anticipation.

I just have the little 100k that Aph has been putting on everyone. Since this character is so new, I'm mostly waiting for skill points to train before I actually get out in the world with him. My only initial reaction to all of this is "Noooo my portrait! Noooo" *faints in dispair*

500 m  Aldrith Shutaq  - He blowed up lots of my planetside peeps and killed some close people.

100 m Mitara Newelle - Aldrith's wife; guilt by association ; )

100 m Cardinal Graelyn - cause, it's graelyn.

100 k on Rodj just to be a jerk  :P

300 m  Disciples of Ston - Terribly annoying to my character IC

Ghost Hunter and the TSF also threw in another 500m on teh Ston-ites (yay)

Collected 85 million in bounties last night alone. Being a do-gooder has never felt so good...

That said, why does everyone want my body hair?!

Granted I do get a nice mail whenever someone collects on you, Aldrith :)

We actually threw in more than that.  We put some ISKies on the Disciples of Ston organization, and then some money on known alts/associates in Edaine Numenor and Manwe Todako.

Hahaha, aw Silas why so? I love it when pirates impale themselves on my guns when they try to collect!

But no, really, ever since you put the bounty up there has been a marked increase in people attempting ill-advised 1v1's with my Coercer. People still aren't used to it being used, apparently.

 :cube: You Silas!

More to the point, they're not used to it having two midslots. :P

In my day you had to choose weather to GO FAST or to have a point! You spoiled kids get to do both?!

This got me thinking though, you should be able to adjust bounty payouts on the fly, like 'activatable' kill rights.

So if I hit the button you suddenly get 50% payouts for an hour or something, for maximum displeasure.


Well, so long as you getting good fights Aldright :)

PS PIE redeployment to Khanid. Make it happen.  I'm trying to convince our Blood Raider actor for khanid events, maybe PIE can be tipped off and come save the day :P
