New Options and Improved ones

[DraLUSAD]

First of all, SR is really a great game, but when it comes to Class choice, its still the same every time, but i was thinking, it could use some Difficulty scale as well as some newer options to get around place's

Option Suggestions

• Adding a "Quit" or "Return to menu" would be good, as it can get you back to making a new group class, with out refreshing the page.
  
  
• Adding a Difficulty scale, which affects enemies Health and Exp gain, Easier it is, the less Exp you earn, and enemy health is lower than normal, but the harder it is, the More Exp you gain, but harder enemies.
  
  
• Making the game even more harder, or easier, is by having the number of rangers on the board, 4 being default, 3 Rangers making it harder, and 5 rangers, making it easier.
  
  
• with the suggested options "2" and "3", could make game play a little interesting to hard core players, by fusing the difficulties, making the game "Hard" and starting with "3 rangers", or for a more relaxing and quick game, "Easy" with "5 Rangers"
  
  
• In the "Town", we all know a "Book" exists, but, we all go though the game, like nothing ever happens, maybe, we could view some of our accomplishment, by adding a new option known as "stats" from the Enemies we kill, Deaths, Bosses defeated, lands opened, Compos found, ect ^_^, something to look foreword to
  
  
• and as a silly idea, i think the game could do with Trophies, or Achievements, certain goals to complete to test our skills, something like that could be fun, or annoying, which ever works.
  
  
• "NEW" - Would it be possible to add a Speed counter, from x1 "Normal", x2, & x4, speeding the game up, could get though levels faster, and not have to wait too long for them to finish up.
  
  Right, thats all i have thought about, maybe it would never get set out, but, at lest it something to talk about as an "Idea"

You could copy and paste this in the SR Ideas Sub-Board. I think that these are great ideas. ;D

Sounds good to me...

I believe that "Achievements" like on the xbox360, would be a good idea.

"Kill 50 Round-Headed Enemies"

"Kill 50 Round-Headed Enemies"

Achievements: Good
Kill count Achievements: Bad

I'd rather get achievements for soloing the Castle Boss with a Priest (Achievement Unlocked: Deadly Shaft), or for using a full-on melee team to take on Forests 1 and 2 whilst killing 90% of the enemies per screen (Achievement Unlocked: Fools in the Forest), not for killing set amount of enemies. It'd be interesting to have them as side bonuses, but Achievements should be worked for, not ground for.

AND ANOTHER THING while I'm on this 2am tiredness-induced rant, you shouldn't be able to go to the next area until you've killed a sufficient number of enemies in the area, there should be save files so you can have multiple teams (and multiple Achievements) and (this is just me, but let's see who agrees) there should be a class per team limit. EG only having a maximum of two snipers, or 2 priests, or only one of them.

Achievements would be a good idea, but a Kill count is too bold, as Cap'n JakeBob said... no, something down the lines for Easy, Hard and Expert achievement, some, shows how good you are, and others, that tests your skill, but would have to be that can fit into the entire game... something like

Defete castle boss with only Priest's as your squad = Bad, because, you got to change squads, and presides, these should be FIXED achievements, as you change Squads, you will be changing into a group that an achivment will be impossible to get.

Aquire over $250,000 = Possible, as it is, this is a type of FIXED achievement, as any form of squad can obtain it...

Some suggested achievements i thought of

• Name:
  Stick Veteran
  
  Condition:
  Successfully defete the first Boss in Opening street, with the use of only your starting weapon and no Compo Items
  
  Reward:
  Unlocks "Name"-(Weapon/Compo) at the Store for purchase (Or just a Trophy to look at )
  
  
  
• Name:
  Compo Collector
  
  Condition:
  Aquire all of one type of Compo (I.E. lv.1 White, Black, Red, Green & Red Stones / Cards do not count)
  
  
  Reward:
  Unlocks "Name"-(Weapon/Compo) at the Store for purchase (Or just a Trophy)
  
  
  
• Name:
  Compo Master
  
  Condition:
  Aquire all available Compo items in the game (Cards do not count)
  
  
  Reward:
  Unlocks "Name"-(Weapon/Compo) at the Store for purchase (Or just a Trophy)
  
  
  
• Name:
  Successfully Pwned!
  
  Condition:
  Defete the Castle Boss
  
  Reward:
  Unlocks "Name"-(Weapon/Compo) at the Store for purchase (Or just a Trophy)
  
  
  
• Name:
  Totally Addicted!
  
  Condition:
  Defete the Castle Boss, aquire Level 3 weapons with any compo's attached , and all areas Unlocked, with a Level of 41
  
  Reward:

These types are something that "Any Ranger/Squad" can achieve, with out having to change classes, mainly they are FIXED Achievements

Achievements will probably never happen on a per squad basis, as he would have to change the save system quite severe, so it would be quite a lot to do. On a global basis would require him to change the server side, including more communication between the java applet and the server which is VERY basic right now. So it will probably also never happen.

If you need a "go back to menu": Just hit the "Set" button, then you will start again from the menu.

Yeah, i tend to forget that bit and end up either clicking the link to the game, or refreshing the page, XD, and having the achievement idea, was just a thought, but what you said, does sound like alot of hard work, levelling up and stuff, even the game would have gone to waste, its good as it is, but its never a bad idea to "Try" and contribute to a great game like this ^_^
