PVP Bounties

J011Y_R063R

I am not sure whether or not this has been discussed previously so I apologize if it has, but me and some friends were talking and we thought it would be cool if there was a way for players to place bounties for other players. Like the system grand theft auto has. I was wondering if this is something anyone else would like to see happening? Maybe with enough people for it we can get some devs interested maybe they will make something like this happen!

I think the pvp Justice System was supposed to be similar to that. Unfortunately, ZOS decided not to go ahead with it.

We've discussed it. It would be cool. Maybe some day far in the future.

And as has been pointed out repeatedly, that day will never happen. Any PvP bounty systems would be exploitable. People could grief, troll, or simply pair up with friends to game the system.

If people weren't <colorful expletive here>s then a PvP justice system could work. As it is, they can't even keep people from exploiting/trolling/gaming the normal PvP system. I'd hate to see what would happen if they tried to implement "PvP everywhere". You don't get that right and you kill the game.

PvP aspect of Justice System was scrapped. (for now at least)

Not PVP everywhere just a specific person in Cyrodill Like maybe the Emp or his buddies, or some guy that is being especially rude after getting a kill lol (we all know what I mean there). But only in Cyrodil.

I would LOVE any type of bounty system added to the game, yet te system that was being developed has been shelved and I honestly do not see it ever seeing light of day.

The issues most people have with player bounty hunting is that either A) they have to pvp for a non-pvp orientated activity (as would be the case with justice pvp) or the hunter ALWAYS has the advantage and many many peoples egos can't handle losing. I think GTA gets away with it because it goes away VERY quickly (15 minutes I think) and the whole game is more or less a pvp game at its core in online.

Having said that though I would absolutely do (well attempt and probably really mess up) a backflip if they added it.

They decided to keep PvP and PvE separate . To avoid a nightmare no doubt .

I have posted above that I mean for this to ONLY be done in Cyrodil. So it would be in a PVP area, and could still be separate from PVE. I just mean like someone killing folks in pvp kills a bunch of players one happened to be a bounty so he gets the bounty creators gold for killing the mark.

Would be cool to have a player bounty board. To prevent exploiting the bountys could be set up randomly by like how much ap the target gained over time or npcs the players killed, could make pvp more exciting.
