Gameplay: Competition: Create Outfit Triggered Alerts

[Biscuit]

I believe planetside 2 can work with Outfit Triggered Alerts.

The Mechanic works like this:

1. an Outfit (or Outfits) starts a War Declaration (we'll call this an Operation) that can be scheduled at a certain time and date within prime time.

the winning conditions can be scaled towards a traditional Alert Operation (power rush etc.) or a more specific operation (base defense or take over)

2. Once an outfit creates an operation, other empires/ outfits will see it, and outfits from the opposing empire can sign up as well (or informally show up) to stop the operation from succeeding.

3. Depending on Activity of the operation, numbers, stats and destruction and time, Cert and Xp points are accumulated and rewarded to the Side that Wins/completes the operations objective.

4. After said operation is over, a small data history is created, showing stats of the operation and who participated and the date and time for the respected outfits that showed up.


The mechanic is largely based on a wider scale of player missions but on the scale of multiple outfits.

Additionally, Whenever Planetside 2 starts implemented resources and or outfit points, then outfit points can be used as currency or betting stakes for the operation , therefore, those that want in on the action and pony up a number of outfit points on the operation, the winning side gains the winning stakes (outfit points or resource bonuses) while the losing side gets nothing.

If you're doing an operation why would you tell the enemy where you're going? Just seems like an open invite ladder match vs to me and extremely exploitable/stat pad friendly.

I think this kind of thing is best left to the Battle Isle instance matches for challenges etc.
