Horizons Bounty on me for trying to do ''Cut the power''

[rain290]

Title.
Is this normal/happening to people?

Cubeo faction wanted me to kill a generator in a medium security settlement and every time I attacked the sentries or anything really I kept getting fines on top of fines.
So, the price to get a mission done is a 7 days bounty on your head?

I'm just sort of confused here seeing as the faction who gave me the mission is the same faction as the base I had to attack so I can't even turn it in now or they'll shoot me down.

?

This is 50% of any mission results. Many missions offer you the chance to become wanted, it is the nature of the game.

Me too bro, me too.

Its normal that you get a bounty, you attack a base after all so that faction won't like that. That a Faction gives you job to attack one of there own bases is alltough a bit silly.

You're destroying another faction's equipment most likely without their permission (it seems like a rival gave you the mission, it's basically sabotage) so of course the activity is illegal! Although I do think missions that involve breaking the law should state that fact upfront.
Edit: Just realised you mention it's the same faction that's given you the mission that also owns the target, that is strange, unless of course... it's an inside job!)

I never got a mission that could get me wanted in over 200 hours of playing this game, let alone a mission that will get you wanted with no mean of turning the damn thing in. Talk about some waste of time

Sure, but at least let me turn the damn thing in! As it stands I struggled to do this thing and my ''reward'' was not in the form of CR
