So, after playing a few offline matches the other day I had a shrike ship in a battle and I was cloaking out and it it survived with like.. 1 hp (yes, I checked!). And that was when I had this idea about achievements that seem to be so popular

Maybe something like this could be included in fleetops as well? I am not looking at achievements like "defeat 1 person in pvp" or "defeat 5 persons in pvp" and so on.

What I was looking at were fun-related things, that do not really tell people how good they are at playing but what kind of insane stunts you (maybe by accident!) pulled off.


Things like...

"Survivor - Have a ship leave combat with less than 10 hp"

or something...


Emphasis would be on things that are not performance oriented but simply fun-oriented. And naturally, you could probably "cheat" and gather these achievements by tricking the game if you really wanted to. So it shouldn't be anything that really has any value anyways.

But I thought it might be a nice fun idea for an element to lighten up the show a bit. :D

I like the idea, but it would need some where like an online account to save. Otherwise you may have people modding the game to give them.

Now, let's see how many people cry about elitism...

If it is just limited to "fun" ones and not super silly achievements like you see in most video games these days ie "your first weapon achievement" "completed first mission achievement" "killed first boss achievement" ad naseum then it sounds like it would be kind of cool.

I would like to see some negative achievements. If you build a mining station and don't fortify it or have any ships near it for defense for say 20 minutes or more and it is destroyed by the enemy you could get a "absent minded" achievement. :D

I'd go with something like Assimilation is Futile.

i've never been a fan of achievements in general, but i could get behind some fun ones.

"Powered by coffee" - promote an intrepid to veteran.

"Endgame" - deal the finishing blow to a borg cube using an intrepid.

"Miner disturbance" - Lose any combat ship to a ktinga.

"Boldly gone" - Lose any combat ship to a map hazard.

"Silent but deadly" - Destroy any enemy ship with the first volley fired when decloaking.

"Pearl Harbor" - Destroy a shipyard with an A-20 Attack Destroyer's Collision ability.
"Team Work" - Destroy X ships with synergized units.
"David and Goliath" - Destroy a veteran ship with an non-promoted ship.
"Alamo" - Lose a starbase, but not before it destroys 400 enemy ships.

EDIT:
"That's No Moon" - Lose a mining ship to a Sphere.

It could actually go the other way around - you would gain achievements not for playing well but for screwing up (losing ships to ferengi...)
