    Overall rank is important to some, but basically no one just starting in the game will ever catch up to those who have been playing and pouring money into the game for years. Ultimately it's a pretty stale list, and not accessible to the vast majority of players.

    I'd like to suggest the addition of a new, more flexible "quest rank".

    It'd be driven by new daily quests, with quests more along the lines of the special event quests (not as hard as some event quests, but more engaging/involved than the current repeating cycle of quests). This would run every day, throughout the year.

    Each day there would be a top 5 (or 10, whatever) list of whoever completed that day's quest the fastest, with a modest bonus prize (200 uri?) for whoever heads the day.

    Quests could be attempted twice, to better a previous score.

    Day scores would accumulate into a weekly, monthly, and yearly chart.

    Prizes would be given to the top name on the list for each of those categories, with the weekly list resetting at the beginning of each week, and respectively for the monthly and yearly.

    This would create a daily ongoing interest in competing, over a long period of time. More importantly, it would engage players at every level. Anyone can compete, anyone can attempt to make it onto the quest rank list for a day, or shoot for making it onto the weekly list, monthly list, or even yearly list. If you are out of the running for the yearly quest, you can always try for a monthly or weekly prize, as it is continually refreshing for each time period.

    Overall rankings remain in place. This quest system would just be a fluctuating rank system for those who aren't at the highest level or haven't been around as long.

    Prizes for the winner of the day/week/month/year could be as follows:

    Day - 200 uri
    Week - 500 uri + 5% bonus box increase for a day to leader's company
    Month - 1,500 uri + 10% bonus box increase for a day to leader's company
    Year - 10,000 uri + a title

    Optional is to have a dual easy/hard quest system so less advanced players have a chance to contend until they get more experienced. Overall it would draw newer players right into the game and give them a new goal to shoot for, and hopefully get more people out there in the maps.

  2. Visit Mission Control and it gives you daily missions, but :(ly it doesn't count toward rank points as 'Quests completed.'

    It wouldn't have anything to do with the current quest system, or overall rank status - it would be more like a constant, ongoing event that would have its own ranking system and rewards.
     
  4. You are asking to unite the 'Quests' system...that is not possible - break the two. If you want to level up :rolleyes: Don't get shot down. Shoot others down :cool:

    It's not about leveling up at all, there's no permanent ranking associated with this, just a continually rolling, resetting reward system. It would be a new challenge, that's all, that hopefully would create some daily ongoing engagement with the game.

    Getting a top score in the new quests is not a huge thing to shoot for, but it's more engaging than signing in every day to collect the login bonus, sleepwalking through the daily quest, and logging off. Whenever the special events are on, I find myself playing more again (and seeing more ships in the maps), and looking forward to the next quest - however minor. When the winter quests ended, I kind of lost interest again so thought, there'd be nice if there was something like that on all the time.
     
  6. The 'daily' Quest rewards are the same regardless, it just repeats itself day after day, week after week. This needs to be closed :(ly. You're not going to score here.

    I really don't think you're understanding this idea. I am quite aware of how the daily quests work, but this has nothing to do with the current daily quests at all. Respectfully, please don't presume to suggest closing someone else's thread (even if no one else is responding to it :cool:), when nothing suggests that you've grasped what's in it. I would make it more clear if I could, but I'm not sure how.
     
  8. I understand what you are saying. You the OP is asking for a ranking on the 'Daily Quests.' It would be better to just have a 'list' of achievers. That's the way it is set up now. Time for a change in rankings?

    Basically forget the current daily quests even exist. Rip it down, and set up a new, ongoing system.
     
  10. they should make dily uest for uppers too, with better reward
     
  11. Note: The thread will be re-opened only if the OP requests for it.

    Enjoy the game.
