Cargo bounties

Post by Denton » #434230

What do you think about the current state of cargo bounties?

Is the variety and number of available bounties okay? What about the payout?

I like it, as a Chef. It should be more varied though. From memory I can name rice, pancakes, onion rings, big bite, pies. There should be more super rare fancy meal requests, that you rarely ever see. And no separate requests for botany, they would have to work with kitchen.

Is there one for random chemicals from chemistry?

Maybe a research node disk?

I had to deliver three eggplant parmigianos one round. Other than that, mostly the standard fare you mentioned.

I like them very much. They give me something else to do as a borg when things are slow.

Heya! Thread revival time but... Whoo boy... The tesla bounty is... Ooooh man It's really risk versus reward, which makes sense, but I really don't like cargo potentially fucking up everyone's round over one bounty.
I play Trevor Fea on Bagil, And Giorno Giovanna on terry. Yes, I'm THAT raging asshole. Sorry for being such a cunt.
Have I told you how much I hate engineering, by the way?

Also this

Motivation has been given to players to do a great act of risk at no cost to themselves.

>release tesla in cargo

w-w-w-oopsie teehee it was a cargo bounty thats my justification sorry things went wrong

Like get out of here bruh. This playerbase is not mature enough for any bounties like these. If the downside to them is to cause mass destruction. That's literally an upside

I like the cargo bounties, it means as QM I have my ahnds full doing bounties and assigning tasks which feels exactly how
the station bureaucrat should be feeling. I always make my rounds after moving the intiial boxes going to each area and telling them what i need.

Couple things though:

- Bit more variety on drinks/Food would be appreciated, asking for things like muffins or nachos would be interesting.
- I'd love to see things that you'd assign Asisstants to get, as in rare maint items (Peaches for example)
- Maybe add Curator items (Certain books, a bible...)
- "A quantity of holy water" as a bounty would allow Chaplain/botany to participate.

Just some things on top of my head. In general bounties are a great thing.
