hunting down raiders

[eric virgo]

i took this mission yesterday to hunt the raiders that attacked a village near (name of vaegir city) before they reach their base in hux.. kuxla (name of swadian city) so i rode over there and waited by the swadian city for a day... then two days..

after 4 days of waiting and paying the bandits to leave me alone... nothing..

4 more days passed. i couldnt do anything but march back and forth between the two cities. i have this thing you see... i HAVE TO FINISH MY QUEST. I JUST HAVE TO!

so more days pass and i am fed up. so i go to another vaegir city and take another mission... half way through that mission (collect 5 military forks) i get the message:

hunt down raiders mission failed!!!

wtf!

really. 17 days passed since i took that mission. did the raiders go round the earth to get to the damn city?????

suggestion:
well.. i dont know if i can suggest anything because i dont know what caused it.. or if the mistake was mine to begin with...

so i suggest... that i dont want this to happen. so ... uhh... i want the missions to be more precise.. like "hunt down the raiders before they reach their base in 17 days"

you know what i mean! there where so many raider parties around the map. but absolutely none near the two cities. i couldnt go hunting the other parties around in case the guilty party sneaked past me while i fought somebody else.. thats why i paid the bandits to leave me alone!

now the bandits love me... they are all like " oh! its eric!!! lets get some money you guys! this man is obsessed about hunting some imaginary raiders! he used to be an awesome military man! now he is just a man with dead eyes and a ghost mission. his troops want to kill him really! ... sad.... ok... lets get his money!"

help me from making these posts!

That probably belongs in the bug-report section of the forum. Makes you think though.

Often times the raider parties will engage other enemy parties and be delayed for quite some time, if not indeffinately. I've had the same thing happen. Perhaps, set it so that those raider parties won't be attacked or try to attack others. Have them wait 1 day before leaving (so you can be there in time to intercept them no matter where you are on the map or what your speed), then they leave and head straight for their destination, with no stops whatsoever.

or have the raiders tracks immediatly outside the town so you could track them
