This suggestion is more for fun purposes rather than usefulness, but I still find it to be a nice addition. Basically, should the player accomplish a notable deed, he/she would be granted a title which could be activated to display next to the character's name whenever it appears, such as in the character/inventory menu. (The chatbox should be exception to this, simply to make it easy to follow who says what.) For instance, after cataloging 200 different animal species, the player would receive the title 'Biologist'. Another example, after cutting down 500 trees, the title 'Lumberjack' could be acquired. Should I use my forum nickname in game, the combinations would then be 'Biologist Keeper', 'Lumberjack Keeper' and so forth, which would display instead of my name alone. (Minus in the chatbox.) There would be a need to have a list with the different titles acquired (perhaps with their descriptions, too) and, should an achievement system exist in Starbound, both aspects could be combined. By accessing the list, people could choose what title they'd like to display or even choose to display none at all. This title could even be prompted to appear in certain NPC conversations and computer terminals. ^^ In the end, this is not really useful for the game itself, but is more of a fun thing to keep track of. - Let me know your thoughts on this and feel free to come up with ideas for titles and their requirements as well! Here are a few more, 'Digger' - Mine 5000 Blocks 'Moleman' - Spend 10 hours underground 'Looter' - Steal 50 items 'Dependable' - Assist 5 NPCs with side-quests
They had the same sort of system in an MMORPG I used to play. They were called Badges, and you got one after you defeated enough enemies or finished a certain area etc. and you could choose to not have a badge at all. What I'd like is it to be a bit smaller underneath your name, but not too small. Galactic Mindswipe approves of this idea, anyway.
A subtle piece of detail, hopefully it'd be a vast selection of silly choices among the typical as well. I Approve.
Cheers, guys. :alien: Some more ideas for titles 'Gladiator' - Kill 250 enemies with melee weapons 'Tinker' - Assemble 20 items 'Star Hunter' - Kill 50 different types of wild beasts 'Cosmonaut' - Discover 15 different planets
i like it.....you can show off to friends.....that and im wondering if its possible to make a custom titl. if possible. mine would be: VORTAL DEWINTER, ROBOT PIRATE GENTLEMAN!
City of Heroes/City of Villains, perchance? Anyway, I definitely would like this. Since it's just an achievement system with the option to display your achievements as part of your character's name, it shouldn't be too hard to code and bugtest - especially considering this forum has not one, but two achievement systems (badges & trophies).
I'm sure I've seen something very similar to this. But. Oh. Well. Some titles would definitely be awesome, and some badass ones would really make me go on and achieve. And here's a few ideas on some player titles: Snipah: Kill 50 enemies with a ranged weapon. Lollipop Man: Consume 25 healing potions. Easy Tiger: Slay 10 creatures in under 10 seconds.
Hey I got one! Or two! Shock: kill 3000 enemies with shock weapons. Space pirate: kill 400 innocents.
Great suggestion! Funny one like errrr.... Wait ...... Errrr for staring at the star screen for 10 mins or builder build like 10,000 blocks or drink driver use a vehicle under the effects of a potion
Sure this idea is great. The game is supposed to be fun so I hope they add "fun" things in the game Creative suggestion. I like it!
You should also be able to choose which title you use rather than just having tge the one that you got the most recently
