Increased bounty limit

Mar 21, 2015 liu xing chui link
I think that killers, pirates, gankers, griefers, and all those wonderful types of people deserve to get a little more notoriety than a measly 1,000,000 credits. You see the thing is I work very hard killing noobs in UIT space and I feel like 1,000,000 credits is very low for the amount I put into it. Maybe increase it to 5mil or 10mil? As much as I enjoy wallowing in the disemboweled remains and molesting the tear-filled skulls of noobs, I will rage-quit VO unless you can help me inflate my ego a bit more.

Thanks,

It's a good idea... 10 mil makes more sense for serious repeat violators. I support this despite various people who have farmed their friends for bounties.

You just want to make more money off killing me on your carebear alts. Nice try.

I like this idea. It would open a new player style since it would be possible to make enough money off of just a few bounties to last a week or so.

New? You mean old. This was taken advantage of and therefore reduced to 1 million.

Yeah, good old times when yoda would collect 10-15 mil bounty on his head :P

If the reward per kill was equal to or less than the base cost of the ship killed, there would be no need for a maximum bounty. Just because "liu xing chui" has accumulated 80mil in bounty does not mean I should collect it all at once for killing her once. Simply give me a bounty equal to or less than the base value of the ship she was driving when I killed her, and deduct that amount from her total bounty. If I am to collect the whole 80mil, I will have to kill her a lot, until I have extracted 80mil+ in ship cost from her.

I miss the old score system

You used to be able to bring this up to 3 million, at least that's the max limit I seemed to have hit last time I tested this out. 1 million per major faction.

@Roda - ya, some sort of percentage would seem more realistic vs 1 large payout if the limits increase.

+1 for getting rid of or increasing the cap, but there should be a maximum payout of a couple million per kill

every single time i get a bounty placed on my head it goes straight to 1 million. sometimes i have had it up to 2 which i know is a bug but i have never had anything less then 1 million dollars put on me at a time. I don't really mind but i think it would be benneficial if the bounty NPC charged a fee of say 10 percent the total bounty to get the location of your last kill.
