Here's a sticky thread to put achievement-based ideas and discussion.
Our plan is to engage game developers to send us periodic information about your game play, such as how many castles you've toppled in Crush the Castle, or how many times your dinosaur jumped in Treadmillasaurus Rex, etc. and that these pieces of information would accumulate to award you 'achievements' on AG3.
We're actively designing and building the achievement system right now, so as we have information, we'll share it here, but we're welcome to listen to ideas and feedback along the way.
Ooh, great idea. Let's copy Kongregate in every way possible. They'll never know what hit 'em!
If people want to frolic through Kongregate's stone-age badge system, they can put on a dunce cap and pay a lovely visit to Kongregate. We don't need to clone that site (our users would lose half their IQ points). If the majority of the AG community wanted that dump for a site instead of something original, why would they be here in the first place and not on Kongregate?
@Ernie15 I agree that AG3 shouldn't be a copy of Kong, but you don't have to insult it! I happen to like Kongregate. What's wrong with the badge system, or the site in general?
Acheivments are just like merits but merits are good points or ideas, so they shouldn't add it to profiles, if they did, it would be pointless because it is easy to get an acheivment
An achievement system sounds good because it lets you view your achievements on the site as a whole and the idea of getting ingame and site rewards sounds good to me.
