Hello everyone, glad to see the progress of the project, well i had an idea in mind which is the following:

If you are going to implement an achievement(s) system this would be very cool if this would reward us some "special" decals/gesture/skin as a reward.

The only missing thing in tremulous as always been the "custom" part, let's said you get the achievement "Kill'Em all" which need to kill 1,000,000 total Aliens, this would reward a "terminator" decals (could be shown) on constructed building of the owner.

Another exemple of achievement (Mad Medic) Repair a total of 200 Sentry gun in a single game during a match without loosing (Reward: SentryGun Inferno Skin).

The main idea is to unlock vanity skin/decals/gesture/portrait ?/voice from hard-earned achievement, so we could know "ah that guy is a great player", and this could put alot more variety in the game.

Off course these "extra" rewards, excluded of the "modding" files, so it's exclusive to the achievement system.

Thanks for reading and have fun 

Yes.

 

Skins and guns would be a very good place to start for this.

I feel like this could turn out very well.  Sort of like the Unique weapons, etc. from Borderlands, except without any stat changes.

It would be nice if these achievements could also be displayed somewhere as titles of some sort, too.

I am not sure if it will be on skins, anyone can fake it then (maybe it does not matter). But it will be somewhere, definitely in player informations but should be also visible directly in game. Hard to say now. Also someone do not want to show these achievements to others so maybe it should be optional.

Kinda Similar to what I was talking about, but this takes achievements though.

I actually like this idea better.
