Cross Atu OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 3244	Posted - 2014.10.14 21:02:00 - [1] - Quote CCP Rattati wrote: I have wanted to do one where we pit the Factions against each other. What I worry about is that one Faction will go into the lead and the others disband their efforts, or jump ship to be on the winning side. Any smart simple ideas? My current leaning, and I'm tossing this up for the community to chew on and tell me how to make it better is to have two layers or types of reward present for the event. For simplicities sake let's name them. Goal Rewards & Play Rewards Goal Rewards - These would function like the MCC, likely be faction based, and determined by a collective metric at events end; e.g. most districts taken or most planets held, something macro level of that kind. Play Rewards - These would function like the weapon naming events, so more like the current sidearm challenge where rewards are earned via taking specific actions in match. This more granular reward set gives players a pay off for efforts invested regardless of the general faction outcome. Balancing these two rewards could be tricky, however within the context of FacWar I believe an obvious method presents itself. The Goal Rewards could be supplied in something like bonus LP, LP gear, or the like. This further could be somewhat granulated such that even the faction(s) which ultimately rank lowest in the event would still garner some degree of Goal Rewards. The Play Rewards by contrast could offer up extra SP per action (like sidearm kills do currently) a bonus increase to faction standing, or another more granulated reward. This second reward type would likely require a "applies only to your most played faction" clause, or something similar to it, and would be best if the action itself were flexible but directly faction linked - hypothetical example "kill a merc with an LP weapon from your chosen faction" <-- This idea will work much better with fully stocked LP stores... just sayin' Alright, enough out of me, fellow mercs, what are your thoughts here? Cheers, Cross See a cool idea thread? Mail me the title and I'll take a look =)
