Bounty Hunting: Faction Aggro Fixed

[Renegade Roach]

Just spent an hour or so bounty hunting in Esumindii. Controlling faction = Esumindii Universal Company

Interdicted several wanted ships from their faction and destroyed them. No cops turned up to assist them.
Spent a while at the Nav Beacon, destroyed 4 or 5 wanted ships of that faction with Cops and other pilots of their faction on scan. No hate from any of them.

Seems like they fixed it, can any body else confirm?

Good job FD, thanks.. did not see anything in teh patch notes so surprised me

That would be mindblowing! Have to test in later.

I don't think it's fixed as a recent post from one of the designers (can't remember where) mentioned that they only recently may have found what's going on...

I could be wrong though and it was secretly patched without telling us, but I would doubt that's the case.

I remember that sometimes in the nav beacons I could go for ages without being attacked, and the next time I'm there... BOOM, I'm under attack!

Wasn't this a bug that was supposedly fixed during Gamma? Like killing wanted ships should NOT reduce faction correct? That's the intent?

Please give it a test rather than just speculating I was fighting for a good hour with no trouble and previously have had instant hate from the law/other faction ships whenever I've killed a controlling faction ship. Going to go test again now to see i it's still teh case, fingers crossed.

Yeah they said it was fixed in Gamma but many people, myself included, still had major issues with it.

I've engaged several green wanted's while in the presence of ISS. In every case, the wanted ship turned red when I aggressed it and the ISS ships assisted in killing it. No agro to me, no indications of negative impacts on faction reputations

Ooh yes, I hope so! I've been avoiding bounty hunting and warzones for this very reason, but I'm not far off an Imperial Clipper, which I'll be putting to good use fighting the good fight if so!
