Where's mah money? Bounty vouchers not showing up, bug?

I'm a relatively new player so maybe i am missing something but this sure does look like design fail. Sometimes bounty vouchers won't show up in my transaction list even though they have been announced on the HUD after a kill. This is getting kind of annoying since i must be missing several 100k in bounties by now. Even when there are no other players around at all, just me vs. Anaconda, 60k bounty, boom, kill but GONE! :/
 
Wait until you hand in bounties and it doesn't add to your account. :) I lost 1.2mil because of this bug. Its not a lot but it was at the time.
 
Ugh, coming from a game design background this sure doesn't look all too good. They should throw some more devs at it and communicate better, is there a proper public bug tracker / JIRA or something?

I think I've beaten 3 interdictions in a row without any reward money. Its cost me money in repairs and munitions. Interdictions are a big mechanic of this game whether it be MP or Solo and its broken. Its fair to say the game is broken at this point.

Or get rammed by a 2% Cobra with no shields and I'm on 100% full shields in a Viper.
I explode on full shields , lose 300K and 3 hours work :)
 
lexandro, or anyone else, is there a place to look when the bounty is ready to be collected where you are told what faction to go to? I ask as I'm totally new,
still trying to figure out how to get my j'stick/pad [one or the other] to work. With that and mining the boards for info I'm staying fairly busy :)

Ahh, I see that the answer is already there. I'll have to be faster on the typing :)

Yeah it's not about faction-specific bounties, they just don't register at all. I guess i'll give up on bounty hunting for now and do some mining or trading, it's a bit frustrating. Glad to hear it's not only me though
 
Yes for the first time happened to me as well.

Has this been ticketed ?

EDIT

Solved this by flying back out, killing another wanted ship, going to different stardock and full bounty was shown and added.

Hope this helps.

This keeps happening to my friend and I and it's the reason we stopped playing all together. Personally, I am tired of every game that releases being broken, it's complete crap. Not only is the majority of ED boring as hell (Combat is fun) but it's clearly still a beta product.

Have it on video that I smoked an imperial clipper for 27k bounty, but only got the bounties for the previous 3 kills registered in the engagement screen, was thinking about ticketing that, but need to edit and format the video and upload first, dunno if they even care :p
 
today was a complete waste of time and energy.. got some ridiculous fees over 100k combined for smuggling cargo, had some great fights that almost wrecked my ship, only to get ZERO bounties or NPCs stealing my kills. got my ship destroyed by serebrov station for no reason at all, i did nothing wrong, had no cargo, no fees.. no idea what is going on but this is getting really frustrating! how did this game in its current state make it through QA??
i slowly begin to understand why people are so mad at the game

how can you avoid being scanned? i am hitting turbo like crazy on my viper to get out of scan range/angle of the feds. why do i have to stare at the screen during FSD trips for 5 minutes with NOTHING happening, while constantly overshooting targets if you want to get from A to B relatively fast, why is there no autopilot? Especially with the oculus rift this is very annoying. Why do NPCs ram me or fly in front of my guns so often.

i am going to stop playing till there are less bugs, it's really a waste of time especially as bounty hunter.

As long as you place a hit on a target ship within 10 seconds of it being destroyed then NPCs cannot steal a kill from you, are your targets clean, if so are you using a KWS scanner to check if they have bounties outside the system you are in (is it an Anarchy System) or are you in a conflict zone, if a conflict zone have you chosen a side?

To be able to avoid being scanned at a station get your heat down, turn systems off and go silent running then make your docking run the closer to 30% heat you are the less likely you are to be scanned before entering the letterbox. Hell if needs be do all the above and drop a heat sink to get you below 30% and then you wont get scanned at all. To avoid being scanned when elsewhere, go silent running, boost and jump out, get around 2-3km between you and the authority ship and you wont need silent running.

If you are staring at your FSD then there is a problem with you connection or do you mean Supercruise?

Stations rarely shoot you for no reason, (I have never had this issue and been in since Beta) have you forgot to ask for docking clearance or are loitering, perhaps an unpaid bounty?
