New badges and medals ideas

<< < (3/10) > >>

rchandra:
I actually really dislike the idea of the time-based medals/badges.  DoomRL is a roguelike first, and I feel the badges in particular should be geared towards core game skills.  I'm not as opposed to the turn-count medals, though I don't know that we need badges for them as well.

and for anecdotal times, my first AoPC (hntr) win was 31:09 :)

Thomas:
I consider beating the game quickly to be one of the core game skills in this case. DoomRL is a very easy roguelike that can be beaten very quickly, and the badges (combined with the challenge games) are designed to give players an incentive to try out other ways of playing the game to make it more challenging/fun. One of the ways you can make DoomRL more difficult would be to try and beat it very quickly.

I agree that beating the game in under 60 minutes is maybe too easy, even for a bronze badge. I'd also say that it should focus more on AoH, considering that there are no platinum/diamond badges for AoH yet.

Speedrunner Bronze: Win standard game in 40 minutes.
Speedrunner Silver: Win standard game in 25 minutes.
Speedrunner Gold: Win standard UV in 25 minutes.
Speedrunner Platinum: Win AoH in 10 minutes.
Speedrunner Diamond: Win N! AoH in 10 minutes!

If it's possible, I think it would be interesting to see some badges/medals for performance between games and not just within one game.

For example:
Massacre Medallion - Two consecutive 100% kill victories
Elite Pin - Beating Cybie twice in a row

Obviously there are many different ways we can extend similar rewards across multiple games.
Any takers?

ZZ:
And I suppose it would be nice to have medals for something that is unusual, like we currently have Aurora's Medalion or Gamblers Shield - medals for the things that are far not nececary for the completion and are not shoving the skill of the player. We have badges for the skill and medals for fun I suppose.

Also it would be good to track on what level you've got the medal in your history, for instance
On level 14 he scored 25 consecutive kills,
On level 21 he pulled his 25th lever,

--- End code ---

And since it's the thread for new medals&badges
Runner's Medallion - Spend less than 10% turns cautious.

IGTN:
Questionable Pacifist Diamond Badge: AoPacifism on UV/100%
