Yes, I am talking about keg brawl and other future activities.
Currently, I do enjoy playing keg brawl and I am very much waiting for bar brawl to be released. Yet, something that makes it less enjoyable is that there aren’t enough people doing these activities nor that these games will keep people playing them for a long time.
People mostly join for the daily. Other than that, we have those 2v2 matches most of the time.
And there is no real reward apart from a title to keep playing it.
As for the suggestion:
- Why not give these activities small rewards. Even if it is only some karma. Or some copper.
- Or how about a new currency. For activities only. Or we could go with tokens again
- Some rank based system like in PvP. And like in WvW having that rank name in front of your name. (because activities are a form of PvP)
On what to base the rewards: And yes these are for keg brawl.
- Amount of goals your team made.
- Win or loss
- Amount of goals you made. But it should give as much as assisting (We don’t want people going solo unwilling to pass)
- Assists (the rest seems pretty farmable)
- Have a minimum score to receive a reward. (countering afkers – doing nothing won’t earn you win/goal points)
- Top scores
What to buy with possible new currency/tokens
- Keg brawl armor skin
- Keg hat (with or without straws)
- Supporter gloves
- Those lesser rewards like obsidian shards, skill points and so on.
Achievements
They are fine, but in the long run we will probably have more activities.
So how about a title for playing X amount of games no matter which activity it is.
Maybe a split:
- Amount of games played (no title)
- Amount of games won (title: Minigames specialist or whatever :p)
- Daily/monthly activity achievements
The arena itself
- Now we just play in plain ice field. No problem with that.
- Obstacles/other map
- 1v1v1
- Like with the snowball battles. Put some potions somewhere in the map (in case with obstacles)
————— Anti knock-down (for 2-3 seconds) – can be slapped/fumbled
————— Anti fumble (for 2-3 seconds) – Can’t throw the keg.
Custom Arena
- More players? Keep a minimum.
- Non passworded. Anti achievement farm
Don’t give titles away.
- Whatever option there can be.
Whatever else I might think of, I might add. If there are other good suggestions that are well received by others, then I’ll add those as well.
