One nice thing that is/was planned that I would like to hear a confirmation on is players putting bounties on other players, I can see this being a big part of keeping players in line, as if twenty or thirty players each put even just a 5-10K bounty on a killer he will get lots of grief and there is nothing to stop you putting the bounty back on each time he is killed.
And that's me back to Solo

Be honest about it at least.
You're in the hottest part of a warzone that will attract the most combat hungry PvP advocates with the added bonus that they'll find new starters to gank.
Plus, it's a few days before a wipe and few consequences for bad behaviour.

That sounds just what you are doing and this is why people will be playing solo.
Huh?
8 characters...
Edit: did you read the part about using voice comm, chat, talking to them, letting them escape multiple times and generally doing this to have fun, meet people and NOT shoot first or grieve them?
Not to mention that I am not doing this to make a profit either, since I rarely take more than a third of the cargo?!

I think we should have a name and shame thread to assist us bounty hunters in making the Universe a better place for everyone
I am all for that, adds to the fun!

its all about consequences. The cmdr will have a bounty on his head now. Question is how big this bounty is. IMHO the bounty should be as high as the insurcance costs the deafeated player has to pay.
--> balance.
there is absolutly NO reason why sensless killing should be artificially made impossible or something. its just part of life and 42.

If you get killed by a player when you have not got a bounty on your head, you should be allowed at the insurance screen to have the option of putting a bounty on your killer. A simple up and down scale where you can add as much as you like from your account. Of course, this option should only be allowed for PvP killings where no bounty was involved. If the attacked has a bounty the option should be ghosted if they die.
Would stop most from simple ganking for no good reason, and adds another layer of player interaction for Bounty Hunters. You could even have a 'Bounty Hunters Gal Net section' on stations listing current local killings/fresh bounties and on whom and where the incident happened.

Yea I did read it. Hence my comment. You're just going around harassing people for no good reason and without consequence purely to entertain yourself.
Was it me?
If it was a NPC that interdicted you and blew you out of the sky for nothing would you have quit solo?
Ah, but the NPCs arent as good as humans to do that yet so it probably wouldnt happen.
If you are clever what you should do is what most people will do, sit in solo when you dont want to be attacked then move to MP when you fancy some.

Fair enough, I have no idea where you are getting this from, but I respect you feelings in this matter. Really, I do!
Exactly. Beta has little consequences and no real aim, some players are even testing interdicting and weapons and loadouts, so its currently like a Space Shooter.
But I dont think they'll be too much consequences in the final game either as most players dont want that. Its too frustrating.
Death has little consequence, especially with loans and insurance perks.
I think the days of logging off to avoid death are behind us, and thank Buddha for that!
With an impending wipe, you have to expect people to behave like the world is ending. This means rioting, random violence, theft and just downright bad behaviour. Just be glad they can't sexually assault your ship.
Civilisation is never much more then a thin layer of varnish
What's the problem with that? In a game that is about "freedom of choice" everyone should be free to choose to do whatever they want including killing people just for the sake of it.
Well apparently we should judge things pre-release;- FD has earned their 'lack of trust' issue...
Next time that happens to you, or anyone, make sure to get their names.
Me and many others (i have a group of 6 bounty hunters, we always play together) go around the main star systems and hunt down for players with bounties on their heads. And if that guy had no bounty and just keeps paying his way out of trouble, we can take care of it.
All we need is a name, and we'll find him, not only my group, but any bounty hunter out there would love to get his head
