I downloaded the free trial for Eve the other day and had a play around. The one thing i liked that Dust doesn't have, was the more in-depth tutorial that Aura gives you, followed by the Career Agent contracts which teach you the basics of any given role while rewarding you for it.
Adding that to Dust in the form of conditional contracts that could be performed while playing any old mission would be great!
What roles/careers do we currently have?
*Light (Scout)
*Medium (Logi/Assault)
*Heavy (Commando/Sentinel)
*Pilot (LAV/HAV/DS)
Plus any number of sub-roles....
I honestly don't know a thing about programming, but seeing as we already get 3? Aura tutorial missions at the start of the game, surely it wouldn't be too much work to just expand what she already offers? Maybe add in some Merc NPCs for the more specialized stuff based around roles that can be fulfilled with Militia Gear?
Seriously liking this idea Op. :)
Edit: Would it be possible to have tip info come up while in-mission? Say for instance you took a Scout contract from a Scout Career Agent, and at regular periods during play, the Agent would "contact" you with hints on infiltration and whatnot, which would be recapped after the mission. |

One of the downsides of console gaming.... "Back in the day", to many of my friends, making maps for the FPS games they played was an integral part of the experience. I even had a go at it myself.....
Hell, a good friend of mine even got several of his maps officially published for UT and QT.
If there was a way to allow the players to make custom maps, new maps would be a dime a dozen.
Edit: With CCP's approval of course!  |

Do you really want players to ragequit? Intrusive popups are NEVER the solution. +1 on the general topic, though.
Whoops.. Sorry, i meant an audio cue. And only for new player contracts.... Though that could get annoying as well.
An on-death message saying "are you aware that using cover can increase your survivability?", if it queued more than once, would probably make me want to punch something.
If it were relevant however, and didn't repeat itself, it could be useful.
Think of all the things newberries do that vets laugh about... Then have an NPC bring them up to speed. |
