Post subject:  Allow Mission spawned NPC images to be unlocked
Various mission have you fight NPCs, and a lot of these look cool, but its a shame that once you end the mission you cant see that image again. so how about being able to buy these with badges, but you must have the medal thats connected to their chain before you can buy it (so you'd need "It's a Trap!" to unlock the images from the lazuli chain.) Could cost different badges, so a image that would represent a base (maybe the TO Ellipses base , Lazuli supercannon or the Sha'din Sha'jha Uplink etc) could cost silvers to buy, while things such as the TO Fornyis ship, Stryll XV outpost, Voliir Enforcer/Overseer and Stryll deep tracker or octafari leviathan could cost dark badges.

any comments or ideas on costs or feedback?

Interesting idea, do you mean use them as ship designs?

It'd be interesting to see a Zolazin base on scans. +1.

+1. I like several mission ship designs, I think it would be cool to be some of the ships in mission chains. It would be fun and stuff.

To add to this I would like to see an art section (like the images you can pull up in the wiki), it would be nice to like in some games to unlock an art gallery (like the medal system, you get the image unlocked when you complete its requirements). Granted you can get it from the wiki but it would still be really nice for those that don't visit the wiki to look at some of the very nice images. Maybe Dan could even add a few of the pre image pics that show what some of the stuff could have looked like?

/sign - But i'd like it so you can buy normal NPC designs as well, perhaps after killing a certain number.

On the other hand, I wanna be a titancore proxy/reactor!!!

Nice feedback :) so I've been snooping on the wiki for further ideas for this, and came up with the following, remembering that you'd need the medal to unlock the NPCs connected to the chain/requirement in the medal-

*There's been an incident (end the Zolazin chain)- having this medal allows you to buy the design for the Deep Tracker (ship image) and Shroud Base (base avatar). Could maybe add the Zolazin NPCs you have to fight in the third mission to this list, but they are the Zolazin race ship image.

*The resemblance is uncanny (end the Genetarr chain) - having this medal allows you to buy the design for the Hired Convoy (ship image) and the VX-Outpost (base avatar). Could also have the Graxis Prison (or a slight variant on the original image) image available in this "pack" for a base avatar.

*I'll be back... (end the Drannik mission chain) - having this medal allows you to buy the design for the Drannik Databank (base avatar) and maybe a variant on the Okkilor/Akkiren NPCs, but could have green edging (ship image). PS- I was a bit stuck on this one, suggest changes if you feel.

*It's a Trap! (end the Lazuli chain) - having this medal allows you to buy the design for the Lazuli Supercannon (base avatar), Lazuli Interceptors (ship image) and maybe the Tevrazon Refinery (base avatar) and Parts Runner (ship image).

*Taken Alive... (end the Sha'din chain) - having this medal allows you to buy the design for the Directory Core (ship image) and Sha'jha Uplink (base avatar). Could maybe have either the AI matrix or Hypergrid as an additional extra in this "pack" as a base avatar.

*Thanks for all the fish (end the Mylarai chain) - having this medal allows you to buy the design for the Science Vessel, Octafari Leviathan, and maybe the Kalvium Asteroid (maybe for the LOLs) as ship images.

The other race missions don't seem to have either a medal or much selection of NPCs in their chain, so i've left them out for now, but for some of the other medals -

*Seeing Red (disable Crimson Blade NPCs) - as this gives the Firestalker design, having this medal would allow you to buy the design for the Rikthar's Guardship, Crimson Scythe and Blade Harvester (epic needs his favourite ship) ship designs.

*If you want something done right... (disable "boss" NPCs) - having this medal allows you to buy the design for the Crimson Spacedock, Dark Warp gate (base avatars), TO Fornyis and the TitanCore Proxy (ship image.

*View from up high/The pinnacle (reach rank 500/reach rank 1000) - having this medal could allow you to buy a new version of your races ship (that would need to be designed) to indicate your new status gained with increased rank.

These images could be under a "medal market" button in the trade tab, with each thing costing silver badges for the base avatars, while the ship images could cost different badges based on their owning faction (for example the Sha'din, Zolazin and Stryll could cost blue badges following their roles as the hackers, scan and cloak geniuses).

Also following SoulPlay's post, maybe some possible sort of benefits to using these designs, but would need ideas on that side.

As I've said many times, more customization is a wonderful idea. However, I feel there are more important patches/updates/additions that should take priority over cosmetic/aesthetic tweaks. Foremost among them is new content for all ranks, but especially for the higher ranks. We need things to DO to keep interest in this game. Ship skins are pretty, but where is the fun? Kill x amount of y NPC that you're going to do anyway just to unlock a skin? I'd rather see more interesting missions, NPCs and game dynamics.

Post subject:  Re: Allow Mission spawned NPC images to be unlocked
Darth is right this is not priority number one for Dan or at least it shouldn't be but I do like the idea a lot and I think it should be close to the top of his to do list.
