I think the game would benefit from some kind of competitive incentive. E.g. once the game is fully released - leaderboards for stuff like most reputation/money/hacks for a given time period, and maybe small events where as a community (or clan) we have to try and accomplish “Blow up 2000 IOT devices” or something of the sort.
- It would give users an actual reason to make efficient tooling rather than just learning viper and calling it a day
- leaderboard competition would drive up activity (especially if there was a reward such as a badge in chat or something)
- events having esoteric tasks could be a good way to get those who have already made their “all in one tool” to have to solve more problems and implement more features
Just an idea I've had whilst writing this, but rewards could also be pieces of hardware that are better than usual/guaranteed 0day rumor or such?
