Dear SK, great game.
You do a fine job, I am not complaining; I never complain.
But I have a suggestion, please.
Since Vanguard is a junk status, and "Achievements" are mostly junk, how about recognizing players who have played a certain number of days.
My account has more than fifty days, so I think a nice badge or something would be wonderful. Thank you.
I am not asking for any gear or costume crap, just a badge or somethingv neat like that.
Award Special Something for Time Played
The 45k prestige badge gets over with within a year, and anyone who has played for, say fifty days, has everything. But I suppose some costume armour would be neat. But I guess my idea is lame.
Cheers.
...that a kind of "Thanks for staying with the game" would be a nice personal touch from SK. Just a suggestion.
i think all players around for a year or so should get a mail every new year anniversary for sk for playing for so long. the reward can be something more like a costume that changes every year like their promos but bound to that character and can't be unbound. I think that would be cool. Sense prestige is for people who work for it and honor stuff can actually be missed if you were not logged on.
Yes, give us cookies. Or snowballs, I'm running low on those XD
Maybe the prizes become better the longer you are around for?
E.g Cookies --> Snowballs --> Fireworks --> Sprite Equipment --> Shield
"Yes, give us cookies"
so...1 year = chocolate chip, 2 years = double stuffed oreos 3+ years = 5x 1 and 2 year prizes (cookies in a GIANT SIZE BOWL)
The reason you are suggesting this is done is as a "Thank you for staying with us" gesture. Do players who haven't logged on in 3 years receive these awards in their mail when they finally come back randomly? Maybe a better way to do this would be by hours, although I am not if that is only a Steam option.
@Nethergrim:
I agree, it should only be done by hours. I am not sure if this is only a steam option, but if it is then non-steam players must get this installed. If it wasn't by hours, then players who play one time and doesn't log in for 3 years will get 3 free presents. Hmm, but then again, if it is done by hours, players who do play the game for a while but can't have a lot of time to play will get the presents much later then players who can play the game everyday. But sense this is just a present and not required item, i think that is fine.
yea, i have played for 41 months. I'd like to get something. XD
But what if they just AFK the whole time? I like the 45k badge better.
@Klipik-Forum
That's why we give cookies :3
@OP
So...after ten years, we get diabetes from all the cookies?
Xxpapaya:
Hopefullyt the cookies will upgrade to cupcakes and so on for each consecutive year. Also, if the afk all the time, that should still be fine sense i think there's an afk wait limit where the player gets kicked every certain amount of minutes. If they are afk'ing and moving their mouse every so minutes, then that still counts as a form of playing lol. And that's going pretty far for these presents who are bounded to your knights frame making it non-trade-able. Also, i think eventually getting ribbons, or badges or even later costumes would be good presents. Their non-trade able after all, so they should have no economic impact.
the character select screen shows how many hours you have logged on the character
so the gift could be bound and unable to be unbound (like the OCH weps) and only given to that character
(I really expected someone to bring up something to do with steam having something better, its annoying)
@Oohnorak: I thought it did, just wasn't sure so i didn't say anything about the character select showing how many hours you've played. WEll that solves that problem. The steam thing was a bit funny, and this would be a good addition and i wish we don't just get it in the mail but an npc gives it to us the minute we logg in to haven. Like the minute we logg in, our character is frozen in one spot and an npc like a captain rank walks up to us and congrats for contributing to our war effort, here a small trinket to represent your hard dedication to the cause. heheheh, i would like that.
So basically like the 45K prestige badge? Or more like the honour blade/shield?
