The game has 59 achievments. The only use they have right now is to show-off
Doing them should reward the player with tokens. Those token would be exchanged for clothes wich CAN'T be traded, so you'd have to choose wisely what you want since achievments can be completed only once.
Actually, BigFootM, I think it'd be pretty cool if you could get some costume-only clothes based on how many achievements you've got. Not tokens, as the OP suggests, but for every 10 achievements you earn you get a fancy costume armour, and when you get 10 more it's replaced by a new item. Purely visual, but a nice addition, in my opinion.
I agree with BigFootM that other players should be able to see achievements when inspecting someone.
Also, costumes specific for beating the bosses. Having a armour costume to match the Snarbolax kit would be awesome, and looking like a mini Roarmulus Twin would be pretty cool, too. Royal Jelly doesn't really need one, given the jelly armour already available, but it'd still be awesome.
I think the costume should be unbinable no matter what.So people cannot sell them.
Achievement stuff should definitely Permanently bound It's your own achievement, so it should be your own and that only.
Maybe have them for greater achievements? Like if you get swordmatser, then you have your sword slung over your back between you and your shield when in 'display mode' (walking around haven etc...)? Gunner gets you a gun holster at maybe the hip? Bomb...I dunno.
Alchemy achievements could be the alchemy icon somewhere on your armor. Star-spangled bomber? None.
Maybe there could be achievement icons on inspect too. So there could be a special icon for each boss, and when someone clicks inspect, there are your boss icons for display.
Hah, this reminds me of TF2 hats.
Not that that's a bad thing, players go crazy over stuff like that.
REALLY crazy.
I certainly like the idea, and I'd like it even more if it was connected to achievements or something, however at the very least this should be implemented in some sort of shop. +11
I have always liked the idea and look of having a sword slung over my back. I want this idea to come in anyhow, whether by this achievement thing or something else, although preferably achievement, so I can work towards it.
Sword over your back would be awesome.
OR
Being able to have your sword slung over your shoulder like that guard guy behind the south barricade in Haven with his Levi. That shouldn't be too difficult to code in...right?
Kinda cuz he's holding it...with his hand...you need your hands in haven...
Or maybe that could be an emote? Like:
/at ease
/rest
/relax
Something like that.
Achievements don't do anything for you. Sure, they're there, but there is no way of showing off your achievements to someone else, and you get nothing for unlocking them. It would be nice if they'd give you something for 'em, but yeah.
Right now it's just; "Oh hey, you earned an achievement! I hope you feel good about yourself!"
Achievement tokens for unique costume items wouldn't be a bad idea. 59 Achievements, so best would be 50 (25/25) to get a costume set. You can pick any 2.... but thats all you get.
That'd make certain items completely unobtainable, which is always a huge turn-down, especially to collectors like myself.
GM items are already enough of a teaser as is.
Rarity is what makes items more interesting. No one would care if everyone had a Rose Regalia... but since you only get one chance to pick your achievement costume, your gonna think about it more.
i had a thread kinda lik this, but i suggested a crown or ce reward for achievements scaled on how hard it is to get the achievement
-1
People would earn the easy achivements to get Tge best stuff. Even if they didnt,-1. Just make it to show where you can show others.
