Leaderboard Events
Posted: Fri Oct 06, 2017 12:24 am
I’ve played a few games that have weekly leaderboard events / rankings where say the top 3-5 players might get rewards.
This would be a fun ongoing event for the players as well as encouraging player activity.
These leader boards could be for really anything.
Npc kills (could be all npcs could be just rares could be npcs from a certain area etc)
Quests completed
Player kills (would have to be some way to make sure people didn’t cheat this) maybe it would only count kills that happen during events.
Exp gained
Anyways these are a few examples the events would always going on maybe 1-3 going on at once they could have variable times on them from 1 day to a 1 month?
You would go into the tavern and there would maybe be a leaderboards button that would pull up and interface with current events going on and the say top 10 players (as well as your rank). Could just list all that info out in text as well.
I think this could be automated and because of that ran with no staff interaction. Awards would be pp and based on how long the event lasts. Say a 1 day event might be 10-20pp while a month long event could be 100pp? (Numbers don’t really matter just giving an idea). Could be gold reward could be exp reward you get the idea.
I’ve seen a few games do this and it really keeps people active and with things to do. The more people competing in these things means the more people active and playing which means more pvp and interaction.
Anyways just tossing that out ther what do you guys think?
