New badges and medals ideas

<< < (2/10) > >>

Game Hunter:
A few months back I proposed some changes to the current badge groups. Here's the post: it's big but covers everything pretty extensively.

As far as new badges go, I mention a Gatekeeper Gold badge (Clear UV Hellgate), which could be expanded to a series.

Gatekeeper Bronze: Defeat the Bruiser Brothers
Gatekeeper Silver: Exit Hellgate alive on Ultra-violence
Gatekeeper Platinum: Defeat the Bruiser Brothers on Nightmare!
(Luckily, BB count CAN be measured given that there's only two in a game.)

Although it doesn't seem that practical, running/phasing through Hellgate is a really easy way to get through it. What makes killing the Bruisers worth a Plat on N! is that the first wave is hard to get rid of, and the Imps will just open the door if you phase past (not to mention the Bruisers are gonna be fast). Unfortunately there's no real Diamond equivalent unless you wanna add, say, AoMs or AoMr/AoSg.

Including the Compet-n medals in some badges would be cool. For example:

Racer Bronze: Beat standard game in under an hour
Racer Bronze: Beat Angel of Pacifism with Compet-n Silver
Racer Gold: Beat standard game with Compet-n Silver
Racer Platinum: Beat Angel of Pacifism with Compet-n Platinum
Racer Diamond: Beat standard game with Compet-n Platinum

The last one sounds nearly impossible, actually. In spite of playing on even ITYTD, you'll need either sufficient rockets or the BFG (that is, complete HA or HoC or carefully get it from CoS) to down Cybie. (Alternatively there's a zerker route, but that takes leveling and leveling takes time). In any case, the luck and experience needed is at least of Diamond level, so I think it's fair. Changing Gold/Diamond to HNTR might make more sense, but speed is hard all by itself and the difference between ITYTD and HNTR probably isn't enough to make a big deal.

Some medals:

Firefighter's Trophy: Clear Phobos Arena without taking damage (probably can do a check before/after level on HP for this)
Personal Mortar: Move at least fifteen spaces with a single rocket jump
Suicidal Hopper: Make at least twenty rocket jumps in a single game
Dead Heart Medal: Die with at least 100% health within one second (great way to keep track of how many times you've been screwed)

Fanta Hege:

Thomas:
Some more "Try to take no damage" stuff:

(hidden medal)
Chessmaster's Token - Fully clear Hell's Arena on UV AoI or UV AoMs.

(medal)
Steel Nerves - 25 kills without taking damage - 10% HP or less.

Fanta Hege:
I just got myself a few more ideas;

Sam's shotgun: Kill 200 formers in one game.
Hunter's trophy: Kill -every- type of enemy in one game. 
Multi medallion; Achieve 5 different medallions in one game.
Kite Shield; Cyberdemon killed with Cyberdemon having no ammo.
Friendly bullet; Full win without dealing any damage yourself to the final boss.

grommile:
Some good ideas in this thread. With respect to this one:

I like the idea, but I think the low end is wrong. The proposed Racer Bronze and Racer Silver badges amount to giving people a free bonus badge for their first ITYTD melee win (seriously, how do you spin out an ITYTD melee win past about 40-45 minutes, let alone 60?) and for their first AoPc win (I can't imagine an HNTR AoPc win taking as long as 30 minutes), respectively. I'd probably go for:

Racer Bronze: Win standard game inside 60 minutes without using melee attacks.
Racer Silver: Win standard game inside 30 minutes.
Racer Gold: Win standard game inside 20 minutes.
Racer Platinum: Win AoPc inside 10 minutes.
Racer Diamond: Win standard game inside 10 minutes.
