I was thinking of what to do in 2 weeks time. I can't just let the thread die out. Especially with ME:A on the horizon. Will the new game mean the retirement of this thread? I dunno.. anyway, I digress.

 

What do you guys think about the Officers collaborating to make a solo/duo challenge series? If you have any ideas for things that maybe haven't been done yet, post them here and let's see what we can put together! I may have to try to lace things together to form a theme, unless a theme emerges in discussion!

Maybe something to usher in Andromeda?

I like that. I'll get back to you in a few hours, I'm sure I'll have something.

We can all get the wheels rolling and see what we come up with

I have a couple of thoughts, I'm just way too tired to try to post them in a consistent order:

-so the whole theme is about collecting credits to catch the ride to andromeda; the goal is buying tickets for the ark

-credits can be earned through completing solos on silver-gold-plat difficulties (obviously, harder diff-more creds), and through significant achievements (like a 1.25 multiplier for 10 waves survived, or no gear/equipment used or such - could be stacked) I was thinking 20k for silver, 40k for gold, 65k for plat - gotta survive every mission, because a corpse belongs in the cemetery, not on the ark

 

-would be a 2-3 month long timed event with 1-2 new solo challenges coming out per week

-the leaderboards would be tiered from 0-5 - based on the amounts of credits collected

0 - stays in the Milky Way

1 - the sh*ttiest sh*thole on the ship - still, survives the Rippa attack, so yeah, it's something

2 - an okay cabin

3 - okay+ cabin with windows to look out at the... nothing between the galaxies. bummer

4 - the business ticket with some benefits

5 - the Burj Dubai of the Ark ship, grants an officer status

 

basically, you'd need to complete everything on Gold for tier 3; everything on Gold, with multipliers, plus a few plat runs for tier 4, and everything on gold with multipliers plus 70% of plat for tier 5

 

The tiers are of course useless, but good for bragging rights. It would kinda eliminate the speedrunning aspect of solos, and would concentrate more on completing them.

 

The challenges would be the same on every difficulty, the payout is what would differ.

 

We could have a google spreadsheet or something to keep the records, I would gladly help with that.

I had to post that in a separate post before I delve into it. lol Seriously, amazing idea. I think the whole structure and the tiers is something that's really interesting... I'll try to think on this too and come up with some ideas for the structure.. We could come up with a name instead of credits too, like Alliance Merit. It could also be complex so that it takes a few run throughs of a challenge to earn all possible Merit points (MPs?) A little along the lines of Destiny.. where it's very difficult to achieve the maximum... (not to the same masochistic extreme of course).

This would also take away the necessity to maintain a structured theme, instead the challenge could be seen as independent feats and mini missions that upon their success have lead the Alliance to deem you highly valuable and worthy of transport.

I don't have any good suggestions, mostly because --

This is a Great idea and you should feel Great  (I call window seats in the shittiest shithole assuming it even has windows) 

 

Perhaps for the series each of the officers that is still around the BSNs can suggest a solo challenge for the series. 

 

...I might just be suggesting that because I want another glorious fat turian challenge, though.
