    Ok. I have brought up getting rid of the increasing hitlist cost and everyone hated the idea. So; could we at least have a cap on it? Maybe 10 or 20 times the original bounty? If your bounty is normaly 20bil, put a max cap of 200bil? I just dont understand how it makes sense the way it is. Why be a tycoon and buy property to keep your bounty high when anyone can just ask to be hitlisted and have the same bounty amount. I think its a flawed system.

    Let me know what you think and be prepared for me to argue back about this one.
     
  2. You build up your base bounty so that you aren't chain listed several times and to increase your profit.

    Yeah, the same result can be achieved through chain listing at the cost of experience and a higher death stat, but if your base bounty is at six trillion and you get listed, the second listing will cost 11-12 trillion coins. One death for a 12 trillion listing price, as opposed to the player with a 20 billion base bounty having to be listed... what, 100 times or more? to achieve the same result.

    The more properties you own, the higher your income per hour.

    The current system is fine.

    OK..WHAT? Your saying that someone with a six tril bounty would go to 12 bil in one listing...No duh. Just like a 20bil bounty would go to 40bil in one listing. What Im saying is cap it. There is no reason that someone with a 20bil bounty should be hitlisting for 12 trillion. THE SYSTEM IS FLAWED. Please try again...

    i think the way the system works is good because it eventually makes people give up on bountying the same person over and over and over again cus the prise gets pretty insane if you keep bountying the same person i meen would you pay like 5 quadrillian for a bouny, no you probly wouldnt cus that aint worth it even tho i highly dout it ever got that high but do you get wat im trying to say here.

    NO account can get listed forever,it just can't be done.Maybe for awhile,but eventually the cost will get too high even if they're manipulating their bounty cost.

    Then once again...WHAT's the point of having a lot of money at your level? It really doesnt serve any purpose when you can just ask your friends to hitlist you a few times.

    At some point...You need to stay true to the idea of the game. The game is MOB wars and the real MOB is about money. Your trying too hard to protect the player with no money instead of advising them not to chain the wealthy mobsters. ITS FLAWED

    Look guys.. In this game Money has always been a weapon. How about we add this feature? How about everytime someone attacks me.. My defense stats double so eventually I cant be defeated by anybody? Does that sound like a good idea? Hell no it doesnt. The same thing is going on with the hitlist increase.

    well there philip i think your getting ahead of yourself on the last comment doubleing defence isa verry bad i dea indead and same goes for your idea of capping the bounty/hitlist cost cus i i said befor there is a point to were players give up cus they dont have enough money to hitlist you so it works in your favor when they run out of money and cant aford it for a while unless they get there friends to hitlist you but then it can get to expensive for them to. also its a game where this happens to alot of people but they just live with it and wait till they finaly stop and you can also hitlist them if you want but what happend to you is you probly ran out of money so you go to the forums and post i dont have enough mony to hitlist the people who hitlist me so stop complaining and be like he rest of us who had got past that and moved on.(also i got a couple ideas shot down verry basdly go check them out if you want.)

    I've said it before, do away with increasing the bounty with each listing. So a couple of peeps get chain listed. Maybe they would change their playing style, stop cheating etc. I've never come across a player who changed their style and still got chained when the increase system didn't exist in other apps.

    I'll give you 10 as any change to the system we have would be an improvement..

    So how does it help to be a tycoon and have plenty of money, but low defense. You get chained constantly and your only defense is your money (which doesnt go far when KANO does everything they can to protect players from it) ITs A FLAWED SYSTEM.

    Also, if someone has hit me more than ten times, I should be able to list them an equal number without a penalty. Why should I be punished (As a Tycoon) for having enough money to list him regardless..

    i only have 5 base defence in all kano games because i dont care if i get killed anymore and defence in my opinion i dont like haveing cus i would rather put it into stamina atack or health. but besides that your point of hitlisting somebody 10 times without penalty, do you no there are paying more to hitlist you every time that they do and you have to pay more every time to its the same deal and putting a cap on it would make it so they can hitlist you even more times but at a price that wont rise so they keep doing that while gaining more money esensialy not losing a dime and breaking even if they do a few jobs. this wont stop them from hitlisting you it probly will make it so they hitlist you more cus they dont pay more and more and more.

    And then to my point. If you know someone is going to hitlist the crap out of you....Are you going to keep chaining them? No. The system was fine in the original. Then a bunch of people who use to play it cam here and started giving advise. Their advise was based off a game with no limits where a level 40k could just chain kill a level 50 mobster. That isnt how it is anymore. There are limits. But now in the LCN version... The people who use to play the original are terrified of the possibilty of Tycoons becoming players in the game again. They have done everything they can to limit the tycoon and I dont think its fair.

    ok i do agree to people bountying like 200times andbi agree that there should be a limit on how many times you can bounty somebody but the increece in mony i dont agree with so i will give this 5 stars for now.but only for now just once i see a good enough reason it will go up and i cant comment forbthe rest of the night cus phone is about to go dead and lost charger lol but tomarrow when im able to go on a computer ill read more reasons you post and then adjust my vote if i feel it is nesesry.

    Philip,
    This is the best point you made. It is an uneven playing field, but Im afraid your beating a dead horse. None of them are going to listen.
     
  15. If Player A's base bounty is at 20 billion, and he's listed repeatedly until it rises up to 12 trillion, then you have the following: A player that isn't smart enough to stay dead, and a player that likes to repeatedly list the same person over 50 times in one day.

    I could be wrong, but aren't they also about protecting their "Familia"?

    It sounds to me like your character has low defense and you're getting chained constantly, so you wanted to chain list the guy but couldn't because his price was too high for you.

    Use ambushes, they get cheaper and cheaper every time the player attacks you.

    Yes. There's a limit on how much experience you can lose from being listed, I believe. Something about half your level? Though, if you care about stats, your death stat will keep rising.

    Also, if by chaining you, they get the experience back that they lost on the bounty board, and they don't care about their death stat, you're only helping them out yourself by raising their price.

    One star.

    This topic has been brought up before and im in agreement personally i would like to see the bounties stop increasing with each listing
    There was a valid point about why be a tycoon and someone can have a bounty as big as yours by getting listed alot
    This system is open for abuse as players can ask there freinds to list them to raise there bounty
    I think bounties should not increase and set by the property you own

    For the record,the most you can lose is half your level in negative XP.So if you need 100k to level the most you can drop to is negative 50k.Anyone at those levels can make that XP back up if they built fairly.That's actually nothing believe it or not.

    I agree Lord not much to gain back at all so how about a cap on how much u loose make when killed
    Up to a max of 5 levels Of Xp max loose
    I also like to point out i believe this topic was LCN hitlisting topic
    And not PC which maybe be different in how the listing is
    I know some games are similar but this was a question regarding Lcn
    And not PC or VC so unfair to vote unless u are playing Lcn
    We seem to going off topic to another game
    Maybe someone could open a discussion on VC or PC for those members to descuss
