ascv26 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Ok so I was in this one session (I was in passive mode the whole time because I am not really into PvP). After the lobby started to die out I decided to find a new session. Once I joined I drove out of my garage and I was greeted with a $9000 bounty. I was bewildered on how I got this bounty. I was in passive mode and I got no notification about it until I left my garage in the new session and I haven't stole any NPC cars. How could of this happened? Has anyone else experienced this or am I going crazy. I also can't go into Passive since I have this bounty on my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claptrap NL Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 ^what ThiagoBass says. Sometimes this happens. Probally someone who didn't like you being in passive mode. Of iemand van Curaçao? :-p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claptrap NL Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 ^^^But I thought you can't put bounties on people in Passive Don't know. Sometimes passive mode removes itself. You can't go into passive when you've a bounty on you, that's the only thing I know related to bounties & passive mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wakeman921 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) words of wiki: "The Passive protection mode and the bounty system are incompatible. To ensure fairness, a player in Passive Mode can not have a new bounty set upon them, nor can a player who has a bounty set on them proceeed to enter passive mode while the bounty is active." http://gta.wikia.com/Bounties Edited July 14, 2015 by Wakeman921 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LackDiscipline Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) The bounty was probably set before you went into passive and then you went into passive as the bounty was being set. The game got confused and queued your bounty until you entered a vehicle (removing passive)? Edited July 14, 2015 by LackDiscipline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranceking26 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I'm not sure about your situation but I started an invite only session on two separate occasions on PS3 and both times got a mystery bounty of $1000 o____0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbone Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I'm not sure about your situation but I started an invite only session on two separate occasions on PS3 and both times got a mystery bounty of $1000. Your mystery $1,000 bounty may be from stealing a car and you may have not noticed the notification that appears soon after the theft. Car theft bounties also now last forever it seems with the active bounty displaying when you start a session and after doing missions. On the ps3 the max bounty for car theft is $7,000 i think. A year or more ago bounties also were collected sooner in invite only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I place bounties on players all the time who are in passive mode. R patched it so that a person can not lose a bounty while in passive mode or while hiding in their apartment.

Captain Sensib1e Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Yeah, just got one of those, I was doing heists and not even stealing cars. Anyhoo, casually driving around with my 1K bounty buying snacks and ammo in my Voltic, which I guess looks close enough to a super, that a Hydra slowly flew over me to check what car I was driving, not shooting at me. LOL gotta love the paying for insurance in occupied PVs and Trollsiris and Troll20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filthstar0 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Npcs can put bounties on you while you're passive and players can if you're in a vehicle while passive, in which case your blip on the map will register as normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lay Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I've had a bounty put on me when I've been on passive mode. It's strange as I've had the option to put one on a passive mode player but not that often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrugalDangerMan Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 (edited) The bounty was from an NPC. It was placed on you after tanking an NPC car but didnt activate until you came out of passive mode. Happens to me all the time when I farm modified Sentinels. I do it in passive so I don't get harassed when I'm too lazy to switch to a solo session. Edited July 15, 2015 by PNutterSammich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WdMeaun_2nd Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to get a bounty, while in passive. I'm also pretty sure that this is not validated. (ie. the interface button might have been disabled, but if you manage to call the service, it'll still set the bounty) Rockstar is not much into back-end validation. (which is one of my only real complaints vs Rockstar... they seem to be unable to effectively jailbox certain procedures, which is a serious development fault) If you can spawn objects in online, you can set a bounty when it's not meant to be.
