    3.0 Crime rules leads to marooning

    I'm in a fully kitted Vulture with the smallest FSD to save power and weight, the FSD is far too weeny to jump out of the system. Here's the problem... I accidentally fired on a ship, a g wrong click, became wanted. Now I'm screwed, I'm essentially marooned with no way out of the system. -...

    Bounty Hunting Intelligence Network

    In systems you are wanted people can access an intelligence network in stations that constantly reveals your exact location for 10 minutes. - After use the game informs the player that he is being hunted and shows a timer until he has evaded the intelligence network. - Intelligence network...

    Showing a ships bounty next to the WANTED

    Hello CMDRs, This is a rather simple request: Maybe I have been missing something, but right now you have to go to the contacts tab to look at how much a kill pays you after scanning a ship. I ask myself why it's not possible to simply show the bounty on a ship next to the big, red, wanted that...

    Make notoriety stat more visible

    I've just been helping a friend reacquaint themselves with the game after some time away, and it was difficult to explain where to check the notoriety stat. I'd like to propose that it's added to the 'status' tab (left-most tab on the right HUD panel) below balance, rebuy cost, local bounty &...

    Vulture - not as good as everyone says it is? Or just me?

    So I've been playing ED for about a week now, picked it up for 20 quid and been loving it, made a bit of money got a few ships explored a bit. Since the update the money has dried up and decided to become a bounty hunter or do some massacre missions for some money. Looked online to see what the...

    Anaconda + Turreted Cannons are farming bounties that I can't get rid of ?!

    So, here is the plot: I have an Anaconda with H Beamlasers (gimballed) and 3 L Cannons, which are turreted. The last days I wanted to farm some materials and a bit cargo in my favorite system with all pristine rings, so I flew into a RES and started mining. Usually after some minutes some...

    Re-think friendly fire handling

    So far there are quite a few problems with getting wanted by accidently fireing at clean vessels. The problem is, that you cannot deescalate the situation. The ship will fire back at you, if you have fighter out in defend-mode, it will fire back again, you will get wanted, police ships will...

    Community Event / Creation Uncle Jack Shaftoe's Guide to Crime & Punishment (updated for 3.0)

    Uncle Jack Shaftoe's Guide to Crime & Punishment (updated for 3.1+) After reading about the sweeping changes to Crime & Punishment in 3.0 from Ed Lewis' post I decided to redo the flow-chart I made a couple of years back. The info in Ed's post was great, but my mind has trouble keeping all of...

    Please stop the ramming accidents.

    Hello mates. This is not a casual issue. I bet everyone has met the unfortunate event where you are bounty hunting, or doing whatever you like, and suddenly get rammed by a crazy eagle or taipan that doesn't know how to boost. They go boom, and you get an auto bounty on your head with probably...

    Ships Fer-de-Lance Vs FAS

    I currently have an A-Rated FAS. I really enjoy it as a full on fighter. It was the first real expensive ship I ever bought and I used it extensively for bounty hunting and undermining in power play. I was thinking about selling it and upgrading to a Fer-de-Lance, but I worry it wont feel like...

    How the existing bounties will be converted into the new system?

    In the current system, the bounties/wanted status are per pilot. In the new system (from 3.0) they will be per ship. Have they said how the current bounties/wanted status will be converted into the new system? If you now have a bounty/wanted status in a star system, will that be applied to...

    Capturing wanted criminals alive

    So in short I’d really like to see missions that require you to hire an NPC strike/extraction team (maybe this could be a separate module) and after you module snipe an NPC enough to board them, maybe just destroy their power plant and risk blowing them up, or getting their thrusters knocked...

    While Working On C&P: Please Add Radio Chatter For Fines & Bounties! (see desc plz)

    (as posted posted on reddit, suggested I post here) SO, I’ve managed to talk a couple friends from other games into playing ED and we are all having a blast! One thing we noted was in the event you harm a ship and generate either a fine or bounty, it’s not always readily apparent you’ve made a...

    Community Goals --Pirating, bounty hunting, and grievers

    As the CG is designing to increase player interaction, I have a suggestion. CG are scenarios with the local government usually has an urgent need. It typically includes both cargo and bounty missions. I suggest that the government institute a special x10 bounty for the CG system. Pirates (and...

    Beyond Crime & Punishment: Powerplay will need a Paramilitary Activities Report or similar

    Firstly I would like to congratulate FDev on the Crime & Punishment system being introduced in Beyond; in my view it is excellent so hats off. One potential issue in regard to Powerplay though is that the current method of detecting whether a system is being opposed or undermined involves using...

    Combat really not paying enough (???), after I tried doing other things...

    TL;DR: Combat seems to not earn enough compared with other activities (listed below). Is there a way of making it more profitable? Hi everyone, Are combat missions, bounty hunting and combat bonds really underpaying right now? Around a week ago, my experience with ED was mostly combat oriented...

    Fleet carrier to capture ship (piracy/bounty hunting)

    Well I know I'm new on Elite but I already saw the infinite evolution possibilities offered to the game, and with the coming of the fleet carrier I got an idea. Why not making them useful for piracy or bounty hunting by capturing ships like in many scifi movies, I know it will be hard to...

    Powerplay: PvP Kills should be recorded & medals awarded for

    With Beyond Powerplay is getting its own Bounty system. As such, it may allow another way to encourage player participation in PvP, namely by recording the number of enemy kills Commanders clock up and for their Power to award them with medals or rank stripes at certain numbers of confirmed...

    "Clean out Sentry Skimmer Mission" Bounties.

    Ok, just for kicks, I tried a "Clean out the [location] sentry skimmer" mission. The goal was to destroy 6 skimmers, it had a 980k reward. It was at a fixed '+' installation. I managed to pull this mission off, it was mildly challenging, and I figured out a way to pull it off. Cool beans...

    An easy way to get rid of a dormant bounty

    I wish any destruction was an easy way to get rid of a dormant bounty, instead of waiting for the timer. Reading other threads, I found out that if you are scanned and subsequently destroyed, a dormant fine gets added to the re-buy cost. But only under certain conditions. According to what I...

    Friendly Fire, Automated Combat, and Police

    So I just lost 5mil to replace my Beluga today because the cops decided to turn on me over a 200CR assault bounty that I randomly gained (Don't ask why I was bounty hunting in a Beluga). I've had the exact same thing happen before in Keelback. Granted, of the hundreds of bounty vouchers I've...
