Hello Arkadian community I am posting this thread so you can post ideas for events you would like to see on Arkadia in 2012. More than likely Dave and Cyrus will see these ideas and who knows, they may like it enough to make it a reality or a version of your idea. Come up with ideas for Crafting, Hunting and Mining Events. Describe the story for the event, how players will participate, loots and prizes and the overall outcome of the event. Example: The IFN Military Uniform Transport ship "Arkadian Style" crashed somewhere on the Arkadian continent. Items and materials from the ship were scattered all over the Arkadian landscape. Your mission is to hunt the mobs of Arkadia over a 4 week period and find these items. The special materials will drop in loots. These special materials can be combined in the refiner to make limited edition Arkadian UL clothing items and IFN Military uniforms. Certain clothing items will also drop in loots as a unique item, of which there may be only one Male and Female version of each in game. You have 4 weeks, so get hunting! You get my drift. So post your ideas. You have seen events on Calypso and Arkadia, take the best aspects of these and create an event that will be remembered for time to come! Cheers Bjorn NB: This is not an official sanctioned Arkadia Studios thread.
In the future it would be neat to see a big mining event with UL amps, finders and extractors up for grabs, however with the focus that anyone could win (just like the alienware events!), not just the big amping ubers. I'll put some more thought into this and with hopefully come back with more suggestions.
what about when clothes are implemented if you get a discovery on clothes you get a real life Arkadia hat or shirt?
How about an event where you get points for kill a mob just like mayhem, but with the catch that each time you get a global or a hof you lose 100point or 500 or something like that, that way we even up the playing field for everyone =) A big player with big dps will always get more points and more globals so it will help counter that, so that even smaller players have a chance who may not global or hof as much. Or even random loot points just like how we get loot lol, which you are given random points within a range for the maturity of mob you are hunting so you don't get a terribly huge advantage for hunting the bigger ones e.g young 0- 5 points mature 0-6 points old 0-7 points and so on ... ...
I would like to see an event where players buildup a city and stand chanses to get a deed for a shop or appartment in the event.
I think utilize that nice PVP ring and have a Live radio show from there maybe with prizes?..(Ok >.I'm partial)..But MS Normandie can bring guests if sponsored with warp drive to Arkadia!!!..
I would like events which last for 1-2 weeks with several happenings for different player types. June, 3024 12:30 MA It’s a hot summer. One of these summers you stand at a market place and can see the heat coming from the ground back into the air. My name is Galad Nithril and I’m a smuggler. I have been a smuggler for all of my life. I was born on the outer rims, one of these places you like to stay away from. At least if you’re one of these. I entered Arkadia in a small group of smugglers. They normally say you cannot get through the space barriers without notice of the IFN nowadays. They tell but we know a way. We are smugglers. We operate at Arkadia at the moment because half year ago the IFN introduced the new magnetic railway between Celeste Harbour and 8 Coins. The track has become a very important connection for arkadian economy transporting everything from ore to enmatter and even artifacts of the archeologists. The railway fullfils the most economical way of transportation there is in the universe. The track is a magnetic strip fixed into the ground and the railway is floating in a magnetic way upon it. They tell there is no way it can be stopped. But we found a way. Our chance is near. We know what will be transported soon. We are smugglers. 12:45 MA Sergeant O’Riley here. I’m the leader of the IFN Special Tactics Squad. We just got a call from the headquarters to attend to a meeting. Our next mission will be introduced so I want everyone in good shape to represent the team in a worthy way to our colonels. Everyone prepare for the meeting. Mrs. Johnson have you found your uniform again? No?!?! I want you to attend to the staff office and get a new uniform right away! We have to represent as a team of unity at the meeting!!! O’Riley out. Mrs. Johnson is a cadet in my squad for 3 Month now. She has to learn more discipline. She even lost her uniform when we did our weekly training dive at Sanctuary Coves… Well there she is with a new uniform. Is everyone ready? Ok then lets attend to the meeting. O’Riley out! 14:00 MA Colonel Stark Ladies and gentlemen, today we meet to introduce you into the next mission. The Arkadian railway will start its next transport on Thursday 12:00 MA. Our goal will be to protect the track from 8 Coins down to Celeste Harbour. We begin to do a check of the complete track from Sunday to Monday. The train will be checked at 8 Coins on Tuesday. The last chance to do any repairs will be in Wednesday so we want everyone to pay close attention to any kind of unregularities. Any thread to the train or track must be eliminated. Further details will be given to you by your squad leaders. Any further questions? Fomes please speak Fomes Dear Colonel the IFN has been made a lot affords in the last weeks into training the squads. Why is it so important to protect the train this time? The railway did other trips without problems. Colonel Starks Folmes that is a good point. The Railway exists since 6 month now and the IFN decided to do a mayor technical check with repairs right away. Any more questions? No? Then please attend to your duty. Colonel Starks out. 23:00 MA Snowflake See the mountains high the valley low. Ever been to a desert with no one and nothing around you? Quietness. Absolutely Quietness. It is so quiet that you feel like you cannot breathe anymore. My Name is Snowflake. I observe the area. Northern Desert of Arkadia. Why I observe? That’s a secret. Because I’m a smuggler. Day1: Monday 20:00 MA O’Riley I’m proud of my Squad. Today we managed to protect the track against a crossing Kiana Spawn. After that we went to help another IFN Squad to defend against a mayor Oratan attack. God knows where they came from and why they attacked us. Since they disappeared into the desert there have been no more attacks. All I know is that they have been much more aggressive than before. Specially against everyone wearing IFN Symbols. We stay at the site now for tomorrow. Just in case the Oratan strike back on us. O’Riley out. Day2: Tuesday 21:00 MA O’Riley The decision to stay at the site was right. This morning the Oratan striked back on us and the battle took the whole day long. Some brave Soldiers where able to salvage Oratan weapons and armors. We where able to fight the Oratan back and the IFN Headquarter decided to send more backup troops. They will arrive tomorrow morning to back us up. As soon they arrive we will do an counterstrike on the Oratan. The IFN Headquarter wants us to find out where these strikes come from. O’Riley out. Day3: Wednesday 10:00 MA My Name is McUire. I’m leader of the IFN Technicans. This morning we did a last check on the Train and faced a mayor problem. All Arkadians are called to move to 8 Coins to help repairing the massive train until 20:00 MA so it can follow the schedule. We will for sure give out a reward to the most active repairers. Thanks and all good for Arkadia! Wednesday 22:00 MA O’Riley The Squad is unbelievable. We scoured the desert and found an temporarily installed Oratan camp. As soon we arrived there the IFN Headquarter gave the command to whipe it out. It was a hard battle but we won. Some soldiers found pieces of some sort of a map. One of the locals was able to craft a single map out of them. With this map we found out that the western part of the arkadian land is way bigger than the pictures of the satellites ever showed. At the area of the new explored land are some sort of marks on the map. I informed the headquarter of the find and for heavens sake they command my squad away from the train into the desert! They want us to find out what these marks are. I gave out my concerns to Colonel Starks to better focus on the train but he refused to listen. My biggest concerns will be a open hole in the trains defense. But the final decision I cannot deny. The risk I would loose everything I build myself up in the IFN is too high. We have to travel into the west. O’Riley out. Day 4: Thursday 03:45 MA Galad Nithril It was easy for us to get the train schedule in our hands. No one asked when Scarecrow went into the IFN Office in that uniform we took by the river from the IFN Squad who took their Jori BBQ more serious then to watch for their equipment. The IFN has grown strong. They cant even remember the faces of their own comrades anymore. These are the moments we are smugglers for. Today is the day. We must hurry up and place the anti-magnetic shield on the track. The IFN lost numbers at the site I saw. These are the moments we are smugglers for. Thursday 12:00 MA The train with its massive healthbar leaves 8 Coins. IFN Troops guarding the train. The smugglers leave the hidden smuggler camp to place the anti magnetic shield on the track. Will the smugglers be able to place the shield? Will the train be destroyed? Will it securely arrive at Celeste Harbor? Which side will you choose to join? Protect or destroy the train – you decide! In the next month find out: whats located in the western desert? what did snowflake do in the northern desert?
