Gamer4LifeHQ Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 (edited) Way too often I see a Bounty Hunter with a bounty. I feel as if this should not be. If you are a Bounty Hunter, yet have a bounty on your head; you should have to pay your bounty before being able to use anything connected to the role. I have been at a Bounty Hunter base looking at my target with a $200,000 bounty; using/interacting the skip tracer/Bounty Hunter NPC. Having access to downing rounds should only be for Bounty Hunters/APD looking to detain their targets. Without regulation people are able to down random people, restrain them, take them to the wiled, then kill them and chop them up for parts. Now, I understand that people will do that anyway. However, making it so that they can only can restrain their victim if they put their hands up is very important to preventing RDM or unnecessary death. Those who don't put their hands up risk being killed anyway; if they run they might just get away depending on their attacker. If the attacker has downing rounds it only takes one hit to down their target. On the other hand, if they have lethal it will take more then one hit to kill their target; unless they get a head shot. So in conclusion I think that Bounty Hunter role/skills/permissions = False/disabled if your wanted with a bounty value over $10,000. Edited May 17, 2023 by Gamer4LifeHQ Link to comment

No. This is stupid and so are all of your points, and I don't even want to explain why. Play the game for more than a day and then you may learn why this is stupid. Link to comment
Austin M Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 This is pretty extreme. I don’t feel like you’ve played bounty hunter enough if you’re suggesting 2k as the max. Lock picking a car to get your bounty out will definitely give you over a 2k bounty. Driving through athira with all the current insurance fraud would give you over 2k. Playing with a group and restraining one of your group mates bounties will give you unlawful which isn’t 2k but does stack. Ultimately what you’re asking is too far fetched. Too many variables to make it fair for a normal bounty Hunter. Link to comment
Gamer4LifeHQ Posted May 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 The amount is subjective to what is appropriate. If $2000 is too low then what is reasonable? Having is bounty as a bounty hunter is hypocritical and stupid. Link to comment

The amount is subjective to what is appropriate. If $2000 is too low (I see that it is) then what is reasonable? If you are a Bounty Hunter and are unable to regulate the bounty on your own head; you should not have accesses to it beyond a certain point. Downing rounds are too overpowered to be used by mass murderers and criminals. Link to comment
Lucien Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 Half of the bounty hunter skill tree is literally based on breaking the law, this doesn't even make sense Kernikov likes this Link to comment

Join the APD, the bounty Hunter faction is its own entity, you can either be a good bounty Hunter or a bad one (which is why an honor talent includes robbing) it makes no difference if they have a bounty or gain it along the way. Bounty hunting is dead and not many people do it, by implementing this you’ll just kill the entire faction as a whole You’re asking developers to change the entire structure of a bounty Hunter that’s been around for the past decade.

Patato Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 I think the previous comments sum it up pretty well. If you want to be a "Bad" bounty hunter then you should be able too. Link to comment
