PurpleSquerkle · 7/15/08; Three new midi loops.

I thought of this great idea where good combinations of characters on a team gives you a bonus.
Like if you have one person one character, and another person playing is a character who "goes with it."
Stat boosts would be neat, but EXP bonuses would be even better. Like twice what you would normally get or something.

I came up with a few and gave them cool names:

I wouldn't think so, but can you add three more?

PurpleSquerkle · Posted: Mon May 19, 2008 2:37 am Post subject:

I already did make one that includes it.

And yeah, ones with three would be cool too. Four might be overboard, though, as then people could just do two groups of two.

It might be possible with the current script system, but how would you plan to implement the bonuses? And which bonuses? We cannot use enchant.txt, unless we remove the Special Unlockable power from the game.

Begins to sound a little like achievements system. You can unlock a number of achievements by doing specific stuff (Kill 1 Deamon Lord, Be a spell caster and kill at least 3 lumpkins with your fists, unlock Zombor, etc.). If you unlock enough achievements, you geat a special bonus.

@Purple: Aww, it's not really possible using the current scripts? Crying or Very sad

But what I meant earlier is that there should be another team with an argeologist.

Well I was figuring each character would have like three teams.
Also, whoever voted "no" should state why. Smile

Because I said so.

Seriously though, I just don't like it, I can't explain why.

Like, I'm not sure DOUBLE XP is right, maybe a little less just for choosing the right friend to play with.

I think it would just trigger the Roleplaying XP bonus.

I think it should be different, not a direct exp bonus, but more like a special skill or and ability unlocked when the duo/trio/whatever gets together.

I thought of that, but it'd be a lot harder to implement.
And then we'd probably have fewer combinations.
