ND Mallet -> NPCs, New Fame System, and more (6/6/2012 19:00:24)

FrankeNPC(Achievmo)
Backstory Summary: Built by Ulysses as an act of revenge against the cruelty of Baelius, Achievmo is an artistic collage of a fighting machine. Made from leftover Battle Trophies from some of Delta V's strongest fighters and an oversized Junker body, Achievmo is built for battle and has experience behind him. Although he is a powerful machine, he has no sense of direction and almost killed both Ulysses and Mort within seconds of activation. Fortunately, the Power Cell on Achievmo's Junker body was defective and he shorted out moments before the final blow. Now he sits abandoned in a hidden area away from all life; both to protect innocents in case he ever re-activates, and to protect him from those who would use him for evil purposes.

New Area: Central Station Restrooms
Map 1: Run-down and dirty bathroom with a couple stalls. The last stall's door is hanging partially by one hinge and has a Teleporter Pad in it.
Map 2: A black void with a grid of green lines going through it. Inside is an NPC of no certain description(sort of a shadowy mass with no real constant form to it). Sells bathroom related weapons(plunger weapons, urinal cake auxes, soap gun, etc.) and some shadowy gear to go along with his appearance.

New Fame System:
Replace the current system with a referral system. Less easy to spam. The referral link would be one time only per e-mail, per IP address. That means if either of those is the same as an existing account for the new account made by the link, then no Fame point for the guy sending the link. Current fame scores will be reset of course and the daily board would be removed, but not the All-Time board. I think it would be more fair to only have All-Time because losing the Daily would really make it so much harder to win the next time you attempt to win. Achievements would also have to be remade so they would be reachable under the new system i.e. Rockstar which needs 1k Fame to get if I remember right.

Another new NPC: Moose Hazard




Battle Elf -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/6/2012 19:26:31)

Ninja moose strikes with an awesome suggestion post!!!

The NPC in Map 2 reminds me of that Drakel from the original AQ. His name is escaping me :P.




One Winged Angel1357 -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/6/2012 19:29:15)

haha ND you just had to bring FrankeNPC back to life(kinda ironic if you know anything about Frankenstein's Monster)




Mr. Black OP -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/6/2012 19:39:03)

Nice idea. Would Achievmo give an achievement for beating him? 2v1 or 1v1 boss? Or is it not a boss at all?




ND Mallet -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/6/2012 19:41:05)

@OP That's entirely up to staff but I would prefer if he got turned into a 2vs1 because of his backstory.




Chosen 0ne -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/12/2012 18:33:53)

Haha. Old forum suggestion. I still love it.




Guppy -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/12/2012 19:05:16)

Sounds fun, always nice to have another Achievement awarded by defeating an NPC / Boss. :D I'm up to the challenge >w<




ND Mallet -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/12/2012 19:16:41)

@suika Yo dawg we heard you like NPC achievements so we put NPC achievements on your achievement NPC.

But in all seriousness it would be entirely up to the staff if he gets an achievement or not.

Edit: Another suggestion added to the first post.




Ranloth -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/15/2012 11:47:20)

The NPC is.. meh. Going by your standards, it should look more like a moose but should do. Also, dat art - where did you get it from? Looks soooo futuristic! ;o xD

As of new Fame system, don't like it.. 200 Fame away from the cheevo so I won't give it up now, but after I get there, go for it. xD But would Referral System work with LB? Since they could spam their friends with it or change IP, but would LB be really needed for it afterwards? I'd say cheevos should go rare from LB and delete Fame LB completely, leaving cheevos that are reached at x Fame. LB would also be less laggy and it wouldn't cause as much lag than it may do now, win-win. :P




ND Mallet -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/15/2012 11:51:18)

@Trans Like I stated, the point wouldn't be awarded if the link was sent and an account was made with an IP address or Email that was used to make an already existing account. You can change IP addresses but it's hard to get onto ED to make an account if you use a Proxy. The only LB there would be is an All-Time that doesn't give a cheevo of any sort so people wouldn't want to abuse exploits to get on it.




Wraith -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/15/2012 17:36:19)

"Yo dawg" Should be "Yo moose."

Love it. Hope it gets implemented into the game :)

*puts forth vote of support*

And @Above: I play ED at school. As a matter of fact, before I retired, it was the only place where I had played for a month.

*expects teacher to scream*

EDIT: OFC it was a proxy. Ultrasurf.




ND Mallet -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/15/2012 23:32:13)

@above Which is why the All-Time gives absolutely no sort of reward at all. :P




drinde -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/15/2012 23:37:02)

Yes. Fix Fame. FIX FAME.

So... what is FrankeNPC's interaction with players? Malignant? Benevolent? Random?




ND Mallet -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/15/2012 23:40:24)

@drinde He would be like a monster from a monster movie. His only role would be that of pain and destruction. The only thing you could really do is put him on a battlefield and try and keep your troops away from him while he kills all the other guys. Who knew that all it takes to overpower a Junker is to just make it bigger than it normally is?




drinde -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/15/2012 23:42:55)

Really? I thought he looked lonely... :p




ND Mallet -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/15/2012 23:48:10)

@drinde Nothing screams lonely and looking for a friend quite as much as nearly killing the guy who made within seconds of starting your life.

Edit: New NPC added to first post and this post too.




DeathGuard -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/25/2012 13:52:00)

That's very creative ND :P It needs some improvement but the idea is forward the objective.




ND Mallet -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/25/2012 13:56:30)

It was all going good until I realized I can't draw antlers or moose heads very well. I blame those wacky Legion scientists and their cruel ways.




Battle Elf -> RE: Achievmo(and other wacky moose stuff) (6/26/2012 20:56:23)

That is quite possibly the scariest moose hazard I have ever seen. If it had antlers…welll… *shudder*




ND Mallet -> RE: NPCs, New Fame System, and more (6/26/2012 23:02:56)

@battle It had antlers, until the scientists decided it would be better to put those dangerous antlers as dangerous claws instead.




gangster a -> RE: NPCs, New Fame System, and more (6/27/2012 9:45:02)

nice i like the new npc moose hazard :P catchy also the fame referral could work now all you need is people to agree with you :P




ND Mallet -> RE: NPCs, New Fame System, and more (6/27/2012 19:33:14)

@gangster I'm sure everyone would be happy with a new fame system due to all the spamming this current system caused.




King Coolz -> RE: NPCs, New Fame System, and more (6/30/2012 2:50:14)

They are nothing special just props from the game put together to make something weird out of it.




ND Mallet -> RE: NPCs, New Fame System, and more (7/6/2012 1:04:38)

@king Well there is more to the first post than just FrankeNPC. The idea with him was to make a monster like Frankenstein with mismatched parts but to have it EpicDuel themed. I know awhile back the forums were abuzz with speculations about a monster being made from NPC Achievements because at that time we had Titan, NW, Hank, and Caden I believe and people started wondering if those achievements(helmet, hat, leg, eye) would all be combined someday into a big monstrous contraption.




TankMage -> RE: NPCs, New Fame System, and more (7/10/2012 23:14:43)

I really like the concept of the FrankeNPC, the combination of multiple high level NPCs has the opportunity to fill the gap of that High Level (end-game) boss that we've been lacking and that's something I'd really love to see.
