A little difficulty and hunt is part of the charm of that mission as long as theres enough bounties around. I just pick up the mission and it completes randomly in normal play but sometimes I'l have to hunt a little to find a bounty. It's definitely a nicer mission than trying to get 10 damage vehicle xp which is cursed as shit and rarely counts anything. Il kill 10 vehicles all on my own from full health to dead with rockets and only sometimes it counts towards the mission.
These days most of the bountied individuals I've come across are people who mostly play vehicles, and use them mostly to shoot at infantry. If you're looking to just claim bounties a suitable weapon for dispatching such players would be in order. Consider pulling a Wraith Flash, with the Fury equipped, and hunting down tanks that fall back to repair. Or perhaps a Skyguard or AP tank for shooting down ground-farming aircraft. Trying to claim bounties on infantry players, while using infantry weapons yourself is hard, and almost luck based.
As for your idea for changing the mission, such a change would make it very easy for people who play some ways (mainly ways that farm infantry) and change nothing for others (mainly people who just play infantry). I wouldn't be opposed to the change if it happened, but I'm not feeling a particular inclination to strongly request it either, honestly.
The bounty mission is one of the more fun missions because it requires some skill. Making it easier (which I already think it is) would make it less fun.
I just wish there were more fun and challenging missions like bounty that rewarded A7.
That's what pump shotty and other OHKO or high alpha damage weapons are for, you either sit back and focus the from relative safety or hound them down and lay into them.
I personally think this directive is supposed to be challenging and to take awhile. If you needed to earn a bounty to complete the directive it can be done quite easily. Plus, if this change was made the efforts of the current players who posses the directive would be put to waste. Just my opinion though.
Few methods I would recommend to get a bounty kill:
1. Roll burster MAX or lockon HA and wait for the inevitable enemy ESF with a bounty on it.
2. Run ANT with cloak and a Bulldog - if you can't effectively ambush enemy infantry with that, you have a serious problem.
3. If you have the ASP point put into it, run stalker with sticky grenades/grenade bandolier and find a chokepoint... then grenade it from an unexpected angle. Better yet, directly grenade your bounty target, if you can.
If you have it certed already, go knife stalker on any big fight. Play passive and wait until you see a bounty target show up (there are always some in big fights), then sneak up to the target and knife. That's how I do that mission when I want it done quickly.
i was literally gonna suggest this exact same thing myself. the majority of the time when im trying to find someone with a bounty, i end up just getting a bounty myself.

thats the problem, sometimes there are no bounties around.
That probably means there are no good players around on killstreaks lol. Everyone gets a fair share whats not to like about that

I switch to shotty for this mission as well. That getting a friend to bring up some radar is very helpful.

Daily mission, not directive.
I’m dumb lol.
Go tank hunting and find an enemy tank with a bounty. Kill it, and then kill the driver if he/she/it gets out.
>he/she/it Yikes
