Cannot complete mission that requires me to copy them...

Postby Psp4804 » Fri Nov 12, 2010 3:36 am

I cannot complete a mission that requires me to copy them files from a server, due to me deleting all of the files with their console.

Is there anyway to do this without Abandoning?

Yea. I know it sucks, but the only choice is to abandon it. I had to do it in my current game.

Hello, I have a suggestion :
Can we do like this :
Problem : Cannot copy files for a mission, as all files on the server have been deleted
Observation : If I send less files, they reduce the pay.
e.g in a mission, i send 9 files out of 10. so they pay me 9000 credits instead of 10000.
Probable solution: i just reply to the email, and they pay me 0 credits, for sending "0 files out of 10".
At least I keep to keep all my rep and rating.

I have a similar problem. I keep getting missions to copy files from a server that has no data files on it...
I never deleted any files on that server, there just weren't any files on it in the first place. Since i cant see which server i am going to have to steal the files from, i am unable to avoid taking missions aiming for that particular server... is this a bug or do "npc hackers" delete files from servers?
I hate to abandon 1 out of 3 missions because of this all the time :(

Nice thought, but I think you have to send a minimum of so many files before it allows you to complete the mission. But if they would let you complete it, sending 0 files, I could consider that a bug. (I'm always thinking in terms of real world.)
