[2021] "To Me, She is Royalty" In-Game Title Awarded

MKIceman

@CG_Doja_Fett finally, thank you! Congrats again, @thegeneral !

Doja, can there be some other, less special feat that the rest of us plebs can aspire to, in honor of the heroines of Star Wars? This sort of thing should be encouraged across the board if possible. Thanks in advance

I like the idea of letting people forge their own path and then rewarding them for doing outside-the-box, meaningful things that promote positivity.

Haven't really discussed adding in a similar feat/reward for other players, although I'd be all for it.

This is AMAZING! Keep up the great work thegeneral! Thanks Doja for recognizing this.

i hope future recognitions don't take 3 months to realize

Same, but I've learned working for a huge corporation that partners with another huge corporation surrounding one of the world's biggest sci-fi franchise IP's involves some logistical maneuvering. If it took 3 months to make this happen (and a similar amount of time to make our way onto Discord), you now have a pretty good idea of why some of my ambitious plans I've been hinting at for a while don't get done within a few weeks.

But, we're still gonna keep at it and hopefully over the next few months and beyond you'll be able to see the effort we've put into increasing our engagement and ways of interacting with the players.

Wow, didn't know you were pushing for the discord engagement for months!

However, I do remember you mentioning looking into that when you joined the communication team. Didn't realize it was an ongoing process for so long

Remember this whenever you see a "wHaT ArE tHEy DOiNg wiTh ThEiR tiMe??" post lol

I just assume you're all arguing over whose turn it is to use the lone laptop. :joy:

We're work from home, so we can't even solve it the old fashioned way: arm wrasslin'

Although maybe that's a good thing. Crumb has pretty meaty forearms.

How do you find out about other special goals, if not by coincidence? Wouldn't it make sense to create a special thread, where players can state what they are planning? Then you could evaluate which one qualifies for a special title and keep an eye on their progress.

While I understand your point, having a thread with a list of stated goals to check whether or not one would be awarded a title (or some other reward) for doing something particular in-game is not really within the spirit of what thegeneral accomplished. They forged their own path, for personal reasons, without the expectation of being rewarded for the effort.

With a list thread, people would throw out objectives and goals, and then if I stated "that feat won't result in an award" players would likely bail on their own objective (either bc they know they wouldn't get a reward or because now someone has determined their pursuit isn't "worth" an award). I wouldn't want to undervalue a cause someone might want to work toward that would otherwise end up being personally fulfilling to them. I also don't want players to pursue a feat someone else deems personally meaningful just because they're a collection hound.

I like hearing about players who forge their own path, do it for good reasons, and entirely without the expectation of any reward at the end of their accomplishment. I think it's good for people to know that sometimes, out of the blue, if you do something really cool, CG is ready and willing to recognize your achievement.

Having said that, I fully support having a thread in which the community lists their ideas for possible titles and the corresponding feats related to them. Perhaps some would make it in the game.

Got to love staff members that mock frustrated players.
There are bugs older than 1 year in the bug reports that are still not fixed and you make fun of the players that ask to fix those problems.
Way to go.

Can you point out where I made fun of people reporting bugs? Seems like you're taking some liberties with your conclusions.
