Akita T Caldari Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2010.12.06 12:30:00 - [31] Originally by: mirel yirrin Most modern games come with some kind of Achievement system. And they are not just pointless, but annoying. Quote: But what if EvE had them too? Equally pointless and annoying Quote: Post your ideas! My idea is to not bother with anything similar. _ Beginner's ISK making guide \| Manufacturer's helper \| All about reacting _
Chainsaw Plankton IDLE GUNS IDLE EMPIRE	Posted - 2010.12.06 12:51:00 - [32] Originally by: Eastman Color XBL "achievements" are hokum bull** put in place to make frat boys wang jobs feel like they've been tugged off by a tranny hooker and accomplished something. Eve... isn't that kind of game.... or at least I hope it isn't +10 internets! oh ** more worthless points! I generally get more satisfaction from playing the game, and/or making my own achievements. (okay I did get sucked in by crackdown's do a barrel roll/flip/180/360 in a car achievement, although I probably would have just tried to do all that on my own anyways) the main achievements I seem to get are the ones like you beat this level, now you beat that level, okay you beat the game have useless points! I like the eve system, some think it is isk, some think it is ships, some think it is sp, some think it is a snazzy hanger full of pimp boats, some like kill mails.

Forum Guy	Posted - 2010.12.06 13:10:00 - [34] Originally by: mirel yirrin Most modern games come with some kind of Achievement system. But what if EvE had them too? Post your ideas! Achievements like the type you get in WoW quite simply ruin the game. Achievements like in WoW have no place in Eve I'm glad to say. Certificates in this game are ok because they are only linked to which skills you have learnt.
Mashie Saldana Minmatar Veto Corp	Posted - 2010.12.06 13:19:00 - [35] Originally by: Forum Guy Achievements like the type you get in WoW quite simply ruin the game. As I never have played WoW, what exactly are those achievement? Kill the same NPC boss 10 times?
heheheh Phoenix Club	Posted - 2010.12.06 13:19:00 - [36] Please god no, I hate all people that play games just to get achievements, whatever happend to people playing games for fun ??

As I never have played WoW, what exactly are those achievement? Kill the same NPC boss 10 times? Kiss 10 different types of animal. Throw glitter on a person from each class. fly around the map and click on a person at every little village along the way. Catch 100 fish die in a fire There is NO place for this type of crap in EVE.

As I never have played WoW, what exactly are those achievement? Kill the same NPC boss 10 times? How many pets you collect. How many mounts you collect. Level stages of professions (cooking, blacksmith etc). For catching a rare fish. For completing a dungeon (this one can get you into groups to enter the same dungeon, without it, it can exclude you from groups). How many players you have killed (100, 500, 1000 etc). 1 for each region you have explored. 1 for each region you have completed a set number of quests in. Achievements for daily quests how many completed. Achievements come with titles sometimes, one type of achievement has high levels running around doing pointless low level quests they missed out. Achievements for reputations at exhalted. I could go on and on, needless to say there are hundreds of them.

TimMc Brutal Deliverance Extreme Prejudice.	Posted - 2010.12.06 13:48:00 - [41] Achievement systems just lead the achievement farming. Certificates are daft enough and cause people to train useless skills because they want the certificate (eg amarr drone specialisation for the drone operator cert). If you want achievements, create medals for your corp and give them out for things.
Sid Zero State Wh0re Academy	Posted - 2010.12.06 13:51:00 - [42] Originally by: mirel yirrin Most modern games come with some kind of Achievement system. Quote: Most modern games Quote: games Why are you making a post about games on the Eve forums?
Idril Celebrindar	Posted - 2010.12.06 13:52:00 - [43] No, achievements are bad idea. Originally by: Obsidian Hawk "Taking you all with me" - Killing 5 or more ships with 1 bomb and killing yourself in the same explosion. "Epic suicide" - Podding yourself with your own bomb - yes this is possible, just takes a lot to set up and some friends. "bomb fail" - destroying your own ship with your own bomb. LOL, especially "Epic suicide" one
Halcyon Ingenium Caldari Bene Gesserit ChapterHouse	Posted - 2010.12.06 13:52:00 - [44] Of all the horrible ideas I've seen suggested, this is the worst. I guess that's a kind of achievement. Originally by: Samuel Langhorne Clemens I didn't attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it.
Joe Skellington Minmatar JOKAS Industries Independent Faction	Posted - 2010.12.06 16:44:00 - [45] This always makes me laugh, EVE just doesn't strike me as a game that uses Achievements like Hello Kitty Online or WoW. It is just a different game. I agree with the "Certificates" being the achievements.

To make an EVE equivalent: Do this PLEX escalation in under 30 Minutes with no one In your Fleet using a Battleship/T2ship/Remote repper(whatever, thats up to CCP to decide) Reward would be a special Pirate ship you couldn't get otherwise. Lore explanation is something like: Since you came with crappy equipment they thought you are no threat and didn't evacuate their most valuable belongings. I think eve would actually benefit from stuff like that. Helps to create some diversity. Or for your PvPs out there: Win a fleet fight while having less than half of the ships(the DPS whatever is a good way to measure fleet strength) Reward would be an UBER LEET TITLE FOR BADASS PVPs issued by CONCORD ;)
Herping yourDerp	Posted - 2010.12.06 17:39:00 - [48] i love butthurt pc *s that think achievements are pointless it adds something to the game it doesn't remove anything, it just gives silly little goals so WHO THE ** CARES achievements are great on xbox, on wow they were ok also. so why not eve?

Something bad: it adds encouragement for pointless and imagination-deprived behaviour. Quote: achievements are great on xbox, on wow they were ok also. so why not eve? Because EVE is not an XBox game, nor is it WoW. Again: EVE already has achievements in that particular way that makes EVE special. Just make one up yourself, pursue it, and award yourself a medal when you get there. Achievement unlocked! ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki
Eastman Color	Posted - 2010.12.07 10:16:00 - [52] Edited by: Eastman Color on 07/12/2010 10:20:34 Originally by: Herping yourDerp i love butthurt pc *s that think achievements are pointless it adds something to the game it doesn't remove anything, it just gives silly little goals so WHO THE ** CARES achievements are great on xbox, on wow they were ok also. so why not eve? You know how eve's a sand box? And how you set your own goals? Your own "achievements" if you will? Depriving people of that and adding in corporate constructed achievements just takes eve a step closer to the generic everyman mmo. You think they'd have one for collecting corpses like the guy in the news the other month? Or collecting veld pre chribba? Or is it more likely that all the achievements would be things like "visit every system" or "complete x mission n times"? Eve needs to embrace the fact that it's a different kind of mmo and run with that, not try and take on every gimmick and fotm that the rest of the games industry vomits into birth. edit: "achievements are great on xbox" no they're not, they play on people with OCD and without enough realiseation that computer games are supposed to be escapist fun. If someone can't write enough content for a game to be captivating\entertaining for a decent amount of time, adding in "find all the hidden skulls" is just the punctuation on their failure and people should stop giving them money.
Jennifer Starling Amarr	Posted - 2010.12.07 12:47:00 - [53] Originally by: Herping yourDerp achievements are great on xbox, on wow they were ok also. so why not eve? No they aren't ok on other games either, they actually ruin normal gameplay as everyone's doing silly nonsensical things for no reason other than "achievements". As I said before, achievement stuff is just a silly excuse for lack of content. I absolutely hate them. We already have killboards which are already an "achievement board", that's (more than) enough.
