Many/most games these days have "achievements" and/or some way of indicating accomplishments in game. Achievements are permanent, while countries and enterprises are temporary.
I was thinking about it and I wonder if some sort of update could get added in on a monthly cadence to add achievements to player profiles. Each achievement could also have a counter for times achieved. Even if there's no actual benefit in terms of mechanics, a whole cadre of game-players simply pursue achievements. This can help motivate gameplay aspects of all types. This will show tenure as well as types of behaviors that different players undertake. It will also allow new players to be able to identify who might be good to ask questions.
This also helps answer the question "what do I do" in simcountry. Here's a whole list of possible goals.
Examples (there should be more and better ones:
1. Global Empire: Top 10 on planet in population.
- If you finish top ten at end of the month in population on your planet, you get this banner. If you already have it, you get a counter that shows you've won it two times (or however many times).
2. Market Influencer
- You're a member of one of the top 10% common markets
3. Space Racer
- You complete certain number of shuttle missions in the month
4. Federated
- You're in a federation with another player
5. Conglomorate
- You own more than 500 CEO corporations
6. Interplanetary
- You play on multiple planets (either ceo or empire)
7. Highly Ranked
- Finish in the top 10 of 'best president rankings' on a planet (or top 10%).
8. Pioneer
- Play on Tiny Atlas
9. Tenured
- Banner without a counter that shows you've played on a planet for 1 year, 5 years, or 10 years real life.
10. Diplomatic
- You sent more than 5 in game messages
Would be curious to hear thoughts/reactions. |
