Will there be an achievement feature in the near future (or at least in the final game)? If so, would they award the players with anything (such as weapons, in-game money, decals)?asked by PartyFruit
TL;DRAchievements are planned long term, but as in-game mementos and unlocked items rather than scoreboard-style trophies; a simple version exists now, awarding a laser rifle for killing a level five outlaw.
Alright well so, a couple of things. Yes long term it's definitely going to be in the game but my goal for achievements isn't so much the standard like Xbox goals or the Steam goals. It's more the you get in-game mementos. So you know you visit a location and you got the snow globe from there. All those kind of silly things when you fly to different cities you bring back little mementos. That definitely would be an achievement feature and you would unlock or get certain items for doing things.We have a simple thing right now, where you kill a level five outlaw in the current 2.2 build and you will get a laser rifle. Which is a short term kind of achievement thing that you can get. Of course that's going to become much more sophisticated as things go on. But it will all be based on things that you would get in the world and kind of holistic to the world if that makes sense, and not be some, thing on a scoreboard or not like a little trophy that you get. That's the idea of the fish tank and all those things you have in your hangar it's to display your in-game achievements so to speak.
