Players (like me) like things to happen. Virtually all Web2/3 have some kind of daily quests, milestones, battlepasses or something similar, where the player moves somewhere and gets some small thing for it.
So let's leave the Season 3 debate aside, but let's do something that can run every month and doesn't have to cost the ILV Team any big money or effort.
The idea is simple:
- Let's take the existing Daily/Weekly Quests or Milestones... and collect PTS (like in Season 1 / 2 for example). (Minor adjustments would be great, but they are not absolutely necessary)
- Let's do a battle pass (for example 30 days, currently ideally "Christmas" until the end of the year). Price e.g. 10-30 USD.
- People will collect points according to point one and receive rewards (but not money, but skins/smileys/board-skins/D1sk/etc...):
For example:
Rewards will be for FREE / and + for those who have a paid Battlepass
1M PTS: Skin of Carablu with winter hat / + Atlas with winter hat
1.5M PTS: - / + Smile of Atlas with hat
2M PTS: Slappin with skates / + Stabbin with skates
2.5M PTS: - / + Slashin smiley in winter.
3M PTS: Mjoll in fur coat / + Mjoll with "reindeer antlers"
5M PTS: Rhampy with icicle / + Rhampy frozen in ice cube
Advantages:
Players know similar systems from other games and like them.
It doesn't have to cost practically any money. This involves creating 10 images (skins, smiles - whatever you deem appropriate), no USD / ILV rewards are needed!
On the contrary, money from the Battle Pass will bring money to the team. (e.g. as a sale of Halloween smiles)
Simplicity of implementation. We have a system of daily quests, we have PTS, we also have Milestones.
There are no financial rewards, so there will be minimal "bot attack" on this type of reward.
I would be happy to help with setting points or adjusting the most problematic Daily/Weekly Quests (ex.: Forge Master Shard) so that it can be launched asap.
I want the game to run and the players to have fun. 🙂
