What will happen
Imperfects create a contract in which there feeder corp accepts the contract
They then form a circle and have Example in the middile, The player recording will have to kill Example and with an AR so his team can rez him again until the 5 kills are achieved and recorded and put up on youtube
Then Example kills everyone and at least gets 25 kills so that his KDR is not effected and also Imperfects win the match of course so WLR is not effected
500mil Profit is rewarded |

How is it that you don't see the griefing aspect of this?
How is this any different than any other game? If Maple is anything like me this is a great thing more kills and less running
I really cant see that as greifing him, its really kinda silly to think good player's are not already hunted every match anyway.
Ask any tanker how it feels when the whole other team switches to AV. Having a whole other team hunt you in a match would be welcome by maple I'm sure, its not much different than it is every match for well know players, how do you think we get so many kills? |

That's certainly what's intended, but not what will happen.
As I stated earlier, the recording requirement ensures you have only one or two bounty hunters in any given match which does not constitute a mob.
All I see happening is that Exmaple doesn't have to chase down his victims because they come to him.
It might work against a mediocre player if you eliminated the recording requirement, but as presented it's still meh... |

trust no one.
i fully expect that this contract will never get paid. i'm sure lots of mercs will try to kill the target but no one will get 500 mil ISK.
the target will have a bunch of people hunting them. that's the goal of the bounty. why would they bother paying? |

that NDA is getting really annoying, and has absolutely no purpose anymore. almost anyone who signs up for the closed beta will get an invite within a day or two, it might as well be open beta |

This is just another "I haz more moneez than you" boast wrapped in an ill conceived contract.
Yes, EVE pilots have more ISK. The two games were designed with economies separated by orders of magnitude. The brag falls apart when you consider that the OP did nothing more to gain that status than to sign up for an EVE account.
This attempt to use the disparity falls apart at once because CCP knows it is a big issue and has barred any economic interaction. Even when the tap opens it will begin with a 90% transfer tax. By the time things open up more it will be trivial to get your own EVE side corp to fund you with far less effort than chasing a single merc around public matches.
The telling point of his cluelessness is that he threatened a DUST merc with the EVE pilot's bogeyman without considering the absurdity of it. Threaten a merc with five deaths? OMG! That's ..., well, that's par for the course in any given match.
Getting podded is a big thing in EVE as demonstrated by kill mail, but consider how that would work in DUST. You log in for the day to see that you have mail: 5k messages each containing the full kill feed of a match.
The OP clearly did not put much thought into this effort. |

The dumbest thing about the post is anyone with half a brain can setup a 50K isk corp match with Maple and kill him 5 times recording this. Then they can go split the bounty and laugh at the moron who puts up the contract. 500 Million ISK splits nicely down the middle. Heck a 90/10 in favor of maple puts 50 Million ISK in your wallet and 450 million in his.
Its a nice way to rack kills too in pub matches.
Everything about this bounty is dumb;- begining to end. |

This bounty is not as dumb as one would think. Many of the notorious pirates would carry a high bounty for status reasons or baiting people into a fight. It didnt matter that a corp mate could blow up their ship and share the prize. |

I don't mind being paid a little more for shooting someone that i'm suppost to be shooting anyway. I might get a lucky day for once :-)
But if we can't post the video until open beta because of the NDA doesnt that mean its a race to get the kills but also a race to post the videos once open beta starts to complete the contract?
I was also looking at the thread on the PSN network and the OP says the video can be made with anything like a camera phone.

Has anyone else noticed most of the critics of this bounty are in Exmaples corp or affiliated with them?
I'm a merc. 500 million sounds like a nice wage. |

I'm placing a bounty on Doug Ugly after the 22nd.
5,000,000 isk to the next 300 kills on Dougy.
In order to collect the 2,000,000 isk you must post a video on youtube of the kill, in addition you must kill him in a specific fashion. You must jump twice, spin 360 degrees, throw a flux grenade at his feet, then melee him to death. These steps must be completed within 10 seconds after the first jump. Each kill done in this fashion will be rewarded with 2,000,000 isk. |

Reply from Dust-Misery, LINK
"Well, now that the PSN is back up, I've had chance to get a review from the Dust forum.
2 points that your wanted some clarity on:
The NDA:
The NDA does not permit you to post videos during the closed beta period. I believe this game moves into open beta soon. The term open means that it is open to the public and therefore the NDA no longer applies. You have been informed of this bounty prior to the open beta so you have a head start over new players joining you for the open beta. Consider this my gift to you for taking part in the closed beta.
Transferal of the reward:
The isk will be transfered to whom ever completes the contract in what ever manner CCP permits, when CCP permits it.
Good luck on your hunt." |

So, has anyone managed to make a recorded kill yet?
I noticed Exmaple has dropped down to the 3rd position on the leaderboard today.
If anyone fancies squadding up and going on a hunt send me a mail in game :-)

I'm surpised it wasn't the imperfects who placed the bounty. Considering he's arguably the best player, and not a member. |
