Something odd I notice whilst checking for new bounties to apply for.

' Wrote:[indent][size=13][font=Arial Narrow]Gaian Wildlife.
All ships carrying it are to be forced to drop the cargo and disabled in case they won'€™t comply.
Payment: 1'€™500'€™000
Bonus:
1'€™500'€™000 if the live cargo was successfully returned to Islay base.


I see there's a bonus for returning the wildlife to Islay, but you still pay them 1.5 mill for just destroying a gaian wildlife transport. So the NLH would rather all the wildlife died in space than got delivered to be someones pet, or populate a new planet?

yeah, but you still get paid if you leave it lying in space to die, is my point.

Hone, honey, how do you expect to implement cargo bouny on Freelancer engine that doens't really let us to land on planet and let the cute furry things eat grass, trees and each other under the sun? It's a bounty with a purpose to stop the shipments of Wildlife - since with a descent loss of tranport, the companies may reconsider ther plans on large profits or at least reduce the amount of animals moved to Rheinland for the rich ones and to Kusari for experiments.

Also, Gaians pay for the troubles with the delivery of the crippers to their base in Edinburgh. On a side note, you have quite a lot of misconceptions about Gaians, as it seems. And we got a mere guide into them, so you won't question their interest in putting your Spa and Cruise character on knees and making nasty things with him - http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=95673

I actually think Hone has a point. It's the same with slavers.

"DROP THE PEOPLE!"
"And let them die in the vacuum of space...?"

Give us better game mechanics and better playerbase that won't run and dock without a word to avoid red on scanner, and we will consider your confusion.

I said he had a point. I didn't say anything would change.

how about force them to fly to the base, then drop the cargo outside, then the freelancer tractors, docks, undocks, tractors, and repeats.

Or some NLH pirate trains/transports kept for the purpose and a skype channel where they can be called - perhaps make them available to those registered on the board.


For instance I am considering implementing an OSC bounty whereby we pay freelancers to force those carrying passengers in unsuitable ships to land and drop them off, but we would never pay them for letting the people die.

We might only hire freelancers flying transports for this job, you could do the same.

Only an extremely busy faction could possibly handle it.

I see your point and it would really be cool to do it that way. But the opportunities to really have all the people at hand that you need... and to find a cooperative transport... it's not really very realistic (although an extremely cool action, undoubtedly).
