Hunting Bounty Hunters

[JughedJones]

Hey everyone.


I got a mission last night to hunt bounty hunters, this made my brain hurt.

After some searching, I found that the best thing to do is wait for a non-police ship to scan you and say you're good. Then blast him.

However, I tried that and didn't complete the mission. Does anyone have a solid explanation for this that has turned these in?

Thanks.

i'd like to know as well. I try one of these from time to time but never manage to complete it.

My logic was to go after a non-rozzer who's after a wanted guy. Nothing.

As far as i know, most of these bounties that are in missions are found at unidentified signal sources. I think, but thats all i can tell you

never have been able to complete this mission. the kill traders, pirates and system authority seems to work on the other hand. lets just wait for 1.3 as it should bring in a complete overhaul of mission system.

I also think it's best to wait for 1.3... missions a pretty much broken now. Whenever I take a look at the mission board, I think that I'm making more money bounty hunting, and the missions aren't interesting, they're always the same very basic objective. If not for 1.3, I hope one day we get proper missions with several consecutive objectives and some kind of story.

Update:

I went to an independent system and blasted some poor idiot who was clean, got a bounty, then went to the system where my mission told me to target bounty hunters.

I found a strong signal source, dropped in, and 4 FDLs scanned me then proceeded to nearly wipe me out. The whole time they were cackling things like "there's a dirty pirate scum, melt him!"

I think that's how you do it, boys. Mission is not "broken," we just hadn't done it properly yet.
