Considering that Dust 514 is suppose to be compromised as mercs, and New Eden is full of douches, wouldn't it be interesting if you could say pursue a particular player as a third party entering a match, with the only goal of putting the hurt on that one player, kind of like an assassination contract? Likewise bounties can then be placed on the original offender which anybody can pursue in their own games which they can put them hurt back on them and get rewarded for it?
I could already image the wonderful drama this would cause but I think it would be good overall considering the nature of the game.
Thoughts on this?

Even adding a Bounty game play mode would be cool.
Contract placed on a player by another player.
Defender gains ISK as body guards and increased sp based on defence order for the target.
Attacker gets bonus pay out and increased sp based on Attack order
Ambush mode style play with timer for extraction of defender.
Top of the head ideas inspired by what you posted

The Quafe agents event in closed beta is still the best event they've done, hunting devs in magenta scout suits was good times! |

Having it as a game mode would be interesting, but what I was thinking of it as way for Vets, Major Corps, and Eve Pilots to burn isk for lols and by creating more dynamic matches where you could get interrupted by a merc bad during your normal fights.

Here's a post from a time back about a Pub Bounty system. See if it helps at all

Was a good link, too bad I can't bump it directly, what he calls bounties I called assassination contracts and what I call bounties is something like the security police who pay players for getting rid of the scum (a revenge system)
This would also make pirate corps and vigilantes viable careers too.

I see, that would be pretty fun. Can the system handle a player bump in a match though? Following the program parameter 8v8 16v16 32v32GǪ I suppose if scotty could find appropriate space for bodies in a match it could work.

I would image that once the system is able to go past 16v16, have the limit be less than what the system could hold as to allow random invasions, obviously this is not top priority, but I'm already working on my hit list....

You reminded me of one of my best memories in Dust.
I was a squad leader in a battle during the event. I was looking around to see if there were any enemies to kill or friendlies to help (logibro here) when I noticed the person next to me: A friendly Quafe agent. Without hesitation I switched the defend order onto him hoping my squad would get the message. I then followed him around as his personal bodyguard for the rest of the match, giving him fire support, nanohives, and keeping his health up. If he died I would go looking for him and give him another defend order.
After the battle I added him to my contacts, just in case I ever saw him again.
I will never forget you CCP QuafeAgentSmith.  |
