Player Missions. Groups

[FRAN]

INTRO

After returning to resume the game and see the changes of interface and some things of economy, it is still perceived that there are missing things in the game, either content or something, that for a long time, some factions needed, that was to organize between their own players (new or veterans), to perform certain actions.

My suggestion is that it is the players themselves (humans) who believe, organize and participate in missions created by other players. With this, you could get the following:

• Create new and dynamic content. And adjusted at every moment. Without having to depend on the developers, although in reality, the typologies such as mechanics are those that already exist.

• Organize groups of players, to perform a specific task or mission. Until now, mainly, it was done by chat (clan or nation), and limited to the players that were at that time. The propueta, allows new players, occasional or with different schedules, have the option to participate in the missions created, as planned.
• More participation and gameplay. The missions created by the players, being adjusted at the moment (current), and depending on the creativity of the organizer, will attract more players. In addition, these missions will be visible and open (depending on the filter of the organizer), so that any player can register.

SCOPE

My initial idea was to apply it at the Nation level, it is where it has its greatest utility. Although already put to request, and if they are going to develop it, so that the scope is at level:

- CLAN
- NATION
- GLOBAL

 

DEVELOPING

In general, this development does not involve great complexity, if you choose to do it in a basic way, but it can be made complex, the more options you want to put.

My idea for this suggestion, for example, would be to create a new icon in the game interface. As shown in the picture. PlayerMission (Key: "P")

Quote

This icon, would open a window, in which it is allowed to create and consult the missions of the players. Distributed in three or four categories:

• CLAN >> Create / Consult missions / tasks by your own clan. Accessible only to the clan
• NATION >> Create / Consult missions / tasks by any player of your nation. Accessible only by players from that nation.
• GLOBAL >> Create / Consult missions / tasks by any player in the game (within the server). Accessible by any server player.
• SPECIAL >> (Optional). They could be global missions, but with some specific feature, for example, that the rewards paid for the AI or a space event organized by all the players and of course, all these missions have to be approved and / or developed by the administrators or game developers.

Create the mission

The form of creation of the mission, has to be simple and with the precise fields. My proposal would be:

• Publication: Clan / Nation / Global
• Title: Name / Summary of the mission
• Organizer: Player or Clan
• Reward: This field would be open, and can be: reals, doublons, ships, fun ...
• Description: Describe the mission to be performed, conditions
• Number of participants: Limit of participants who can join. Here the discussion, is whether the organizer can accept or not the registration.
• Mission Day: Date to be carried out the mission
• Mission Expiration: When the mission expires.

One could argue, whether it would be convenient for each publication to contain money or limit the number of missions or a filter to avoid abuses.

 

Consultation / Registration of the Mission

Any player, within the scope of the mission, may be registered, provided that the mission is valid (date). When you register, the name of the player will appear in the list of participants of the mission. Here you could discuss, if the organizer is given the option or not to accept the participant or not.

The organizer will contact the participants to carry out the published mission. Here we would have to create a group of participants, in the same chat, so they can communicate.

I like it, this is what I understand by new content, more options, this makes the game stop being monotonous. And I also really like that there are missions where captains from different nations participate together. These global missions would come but very well to the game, it would even improve relations between players both in the naval and in the forum. We are 400 in the world playing regularly naval, we should be almost family. Of course very interesting your proposal.
