Currently we only have half of the bounty system that was originally described. There will be two types of bounties: "Legal" and "Illegal" bounties. Currently, we only have "legal" bounties, which are set automatically by the nations, and when a player with a bounty on their head is killed by a bounty hunter, they receive an XP penalty. Because of the XP penalty, I would say it's a good thing players aren't getting bounties placed on them left and right.

The "illegal" bounty system hasn't been introduced to the game yet, but will allow players to set bounties on other players, and will not have the XP penalty for getting killed by a bounty hunter while you have an illegal bounty on your head. Once that gets implemented, methinks we will start seeing lots more bounties.

Yeah the bounty hunter track hasn't really been implemented yet.

I'd like to see the war between bounty hunters and pirates take on more of a reward system.

Medals for Bounties taken, etc...

But I also agree that legal bounties should be easier to come by. The high priced ones should still be about as rare as they are now.
But 50-100k bounties should be quite common for smaller infractions.

the cheaper legal bounties shouldnt have an xp loss. Remember when the illegal bounty system was in effect, and you lost something like 30% of your score in a few hours shape?

hehe yah, I agree, total it was only 20% I think

perhaps make it for every 750,000 on your head, you lose 1% if you get killed by a bounty hunter
