Idea: Achievements & Scars

More Info: One of the most fun aspects to playing XBOX 360 games and Hellgate: London (do other pc games do it too?) is achievements.

These are little badges/titles that get added to your profile when you successfully complete complex (or just weird) tasks in a game.

I think the possibility of these depends on how much data lack collects (if any), but it could appear as a link in your profile to your 'achievements page' with the ones unlocked listed. (possibly with badges if you gave me development time for them).

Oh, Premium Only.

Except Scars. I think similar code could control scars and help auto moderate players. They are detailed below with achievements.

Some initial ideas for achievements:

Code: Select all

Unless obviously otherwise, these must be 3 FFA and up games without teams.

Achievement        <How To Get>
------------------ ----------------------------------------------------------
Night Vision       <Win 20 Fog of War games>
I'll Be Back       <Terminate 50 Players in Terminator Games>

Iron Will          <Win a game where you had only 1 army at some point       
                     (not in a team game)>

Stone Cold Killer  <Kill 5 Players In One Game (Terminator Only)>

Hitman             <Win 50 Assassin Games>

Running Riot       <Eliminate 5 Players In One Turn>
I Hate Poker       <Win 100 No Cards Games>
Lucky Dice         <Kill 10 Or More Armies In A Row Without Losing One>
Lucky You          <Own A Continent Your First Turn Worth +2 Or More>
Diplomat           <Win An Assassin Game Due To
                      Someone Else Killing Your Target>

Must petition a mod (or admin) for scar removal.  They will likely take their sweet time responding.

Scar               <How To Get> [Effect]
------------------ ----------------------------------------------------------
Wrong Guy          <Kill Someone Else's Target In Assassin In Two Games
                      (Unless Fog of War)>

                     And Recieve Negative Feedback For It From A Teammate>
                   [Can No Longer Play Public Team Games]
Deadbeater         <Deadbeat in over 25% of your games
                     (once you have over 20 games)>
                   [Can No Longer Play Public Games]

Priority: It's just for fun, so low.

Map Specific Achievements On Page 2 <- Please Help Improve These

I like this, i had a similar idea using ribbons and medals as rewards...

[khazalid]

yeah thats kinda cool, well done

[Herakilla]

lol i get all of those except the battle royal one!

[Risktaker17]

lol i get all of those except the battle royal one!

same

[Herakilla]

even the iron will?

[lackattack]

Cool idea! These would go nicely with tournament medals (already on the to-do list).

[muy_thaiguy]

Sounds pretty cool.

They Call Me Bob <Total Over 500 Armies in One Game>

Me, kwan, Fircoal, and mm10 have well over 10,000 armies apiece in one game. So that would be sweet.

[Herakilla]

Cool idea! These would go nicely with tournament medals (already on the to-do list).

i take it these will go on the to do list?

it would be great if there were even more! im sure we can find some

Perfection: win a triples game without losing a team member

Double kill: kill 2 players in a game

Triple kill: kill 3 players in a game

etc

(cant think of a good name): kill all 5 opponents in a 6 player terminator game

theres lots of stuff we can do and like on the 360 you can add more with each game type/map added

[firth4eva]

Sounds pretty cool.

i'm sure those 3 would cause a copyright issue with Halo 3 buddy

And Halo 2

[Aerial Attack]

This is a sweet idea.

One more:

Brother's Keeper - successfully win a team game where your partner deadbeats (and none of your opponents do).

I assume that Iron Will only applies to non-team games, otherwise your at the very end of an easy win you could fort everything to your teammate and have them knock you down to 1 army

Yeah - that Last Man Standing Badge will definitely be a cool one for Battle Royale

Some of these are too easy to get though.

[AndyDufresne]

Once the time comes for this, we'll most likely come back and get heavy into the idea and look for feedback and input. But for now, keep tossing out some cool ideas.


--Andy

[hwhrhett]

it would be good with levels of achievement like

win 100 singles games. - bronze

win 500 singles games - silver

win 1000 singles games - gold.

win 2000 singles games - platinum

not neccessarily with those numbers, but along those lines.

the awards could change color as you complete more.

[Coleman]

You'd be silver you know, assuming all your wins are singles. I don't think we have anyone that has won that many singles games. Seems a bit high, could take people a couple years.

I think we should have some really hard ones though. Winning a Battle Royale is an obvious hard one, since many people can't even time getting into those.

I'll keep updating the first post with the ideas I think are good and won't get poor old lack sued.

[Herakilla]

lol coleman i think johnnyrocket would b a gold

[Aerial Attack]

Oh yeah, one more thing - NONE of the games applied can be 1 v 1 (except maybe the need for speed).

[Coleman]

Added.

[spinwizard]

Genius- Winning a game on AoM!

We could have ribbons for games played achevments

[Coleman]

lol spin, probably not. But that did inspire me to add World Travler and World Conquerer.

[Aerial Attack]

I like that last addition - it's one of the few I qualify for (other than Wuss).

I've deployed 12 (making many armies of 3 into armies of 4) and lost 9 straight battles - to go down 18 w/o taking a single army. Someone wasn't a happy camper, it was a harbinger of things to come on my "favorite" map at the time.

As for World Conqueror - 50 maps is nice, but I think it should be all maps released for at least 30 days. Thanks to Berlin, Bamboo Jack, and Midkemia - I no longer qualify (about to win Bamboo and Midkemia) as someone who has won on every map, gotta get going on the Berlin map.

Actually, I am not sure how many maps I've only won a 1 v 1 game on - but there are probably a few. Discounting those (means I have to join some non 1 v 1 on those maps), I probably have about 45 maps Conquered. Anyone qualify for World Conqueror (as Coleman has it 50+ maps, no 1 v 1)?

[Coleman]

I'm not sure if I like the idea of being able to lose achievements once you have them, and even if I did I don't know how lack would code that in. He'd need to update achievement code every time he adds more maps. I guess he could make a script there that checks the total maps on the server where he stores that.

This is still largely unofficial even though it is listed to-do. We aren't sure what the capabilities of the site and the logging is and many of these achievements might not work or will get altered by the time the feature is set up.

Anyway, assuming making dynamic achievements is possible, I'm not sure I'm keen on the idea. New achievements could always be added when the map count increases.

[Aerial Attack]

Yeah, I guess it's best not to strip people of their achievements - unless they merit being stripped.

In going back to check my record, I noticed that I accidentally walked into a triples game [one of my first] and BEAT SkyT - the current CC Conqueror. One of my partner's was a deadbeat no less. NOTE: This was a SEQUENTIAL game - probably the last he ever played *grin*

EDIT: I guess that gives me the Brother's Keeper Award too - not a "bad" player to earn it against


But here's my record:

35 Maps Conquered (singles 3+ players - includes Assassin games)
5 Maps Conquered (teams only)
14 Maps Conquered (1 v 1 only)
2 NEW Maps almost Conquered
1 NEW Map - definitely need to work on.

There's gotta be someone out there who's won on EVERY map (excluding 1 v 1, possibly excluding teams).
