Negotiation contract outcome

[pjft]

Hi,

I'm not 100% this is a bug, but it feels like it. I just got my first non-delivery contract, and I went to a place and had an option to say something like "Certainly there has to be another way", or similar. I got into a fight (Get out of here), and I was defeated.

After I woke up, the red spot in the map was no longer available - is this by design, that I am not meant to retry this kind of contracts?

Still, the weird part is that I was then stalked by some guys, and then after I killed them, I got a message saying "Job Complete" (or something like that), and I got the payout.

I apologize for the vague messages, but it was the first time I got this contract. Something in this timeline doesn't quite feel right.

Cheers!

Sounds like maybe some confusion in terms of how contracts work?

I will do some checking but yes, I can confirm what you describe is accurate with regards to the contract.

If the negotiation or threaten fails, right now, you still get the payout if you kill everybody. Some of us consider this a bug. If you escape away from the battle you don't get the pay out.

But if you die, yes, the game gets confused and says 'Job completed' the next time you run into trouble and successfully kill everybody or escape. I wasn't aware that you got paid as well. But this is a bug and has been reported.

This is all fixed -- now you have to win the negotiate or threaten test to get paid.

Also, I have dramatically improved the dialog and interaction for this type of mission.
