Missions are completly broken

[GJ51]

The fine is designed to prevent just selling the cargo for profit...

If its anything like Salvage missions, you cannot remove the Mission and then Stolen tags anymore.
FCs cant clean it either.
I tried offloading to a friend and that didn't work. Dropping it for him. Also making the mission create multiple copies of its self and getting him to collect the items. None of it worked.
Nor does dropping it, finishing mission and collecting it. Both jettison and abandon.
Ive tried many things recently to get a leagal form of some salvage via illicit ways, havent found a way that works "now" even though I know and have been told they used to work.

So one thing of interest, I've noticed that hatch breakers and cargo hatch failures will never drop mission cargo.

So... It would make excellent bait?

You don't have to pay the fine. Just steal it and run away saying muwahahahahahahahaha!

Oh ... that would be great. Unfortunetaly that does not work out.

 

[StiTch]

"oh no! missions that aren't infinite reward at no risk!"

 

[Feanor the Tall]

With great reward comes great risk. Don't get blasted or robbed and you'll be fine. Really don't see the problem here.

 

[Bottom Hat]

I am reliably informed that you can transfer it to your own carrier with the right outfitting, that it then appears as non stolen cargo afterwards.

I haven't tested this myself, and I don't want to spoil someone's awesome trick, but it works.

Exactly!

Stolen goods are all profit...

Oh ... that would be great. Unfortunetaly that does not work out.

Actually, it does...

Around 7 billion credits worth of cargo got 'lost in the post' in mission goods last week...

Looks like we are lacking some special knowledge here.....

Only imagination - and a Fleet Carrier, of course...

I take it you dont pay the fine. So how do you get rid of the fines ?

Hmm i guess you could do 50% of the mission, place the rest on your FC and then claim partial reward and sell the stolen goods, thus gaining no fine ?

 

[pnellesen]

Hmmm... I smell some grifting going on there...

"Pay no attention to that wing of Elite FDLs that will appear behind you as soon as you drop into the system. They're only there to escort you. Honest."

I only use the fine value as a rough guide to how much profit I know I'll make...

Ok first I goto go dump some cheap gold into a stations market for some Faction Inf, then im boldly going where rat has been before, or at least try to figure it out !

Of course, crime on an industrial scale does have a tendency to damage one's reputation somewhat
