Chunin exams like event in Deathmatch

[StrawHatSeyi]

I know this sounds a little far fetched, but i think it would be really cool if there was a chunin exams like event. For example, There would be no written test. Only a survival test and and a final deathmatch for everyone that passed the survival test. A limit topeople have to join the server (event server) and you can choose to be in teams or go solo. You start off with one scroll and you have to obtain Two scrolls (similar to heaven and earth scroll) and you will have a time limit of 15 - 20 mins to obtain them and get to the centre. For everyone that passed the survival test, there will be a tournament in the form of a bracket. For example:




The person who wins the final fight wins the event, and maybe gets a title on forums.

The survival field could look something like this (I know, it is the chunin exams map, but vreg could change it up)

I don't think it's far fetched. I think this is a realistic idea as I've seen this done in other games. It's a good idea, that I was about to post in a later stage of the game. Earlier doesn't hurts, I guess.

[StrawHatSeyi]

True, but yeah, i hope vreg gets around to doing this in a later stage of deathmatch

[Kayleb]

It might be far fetched, but it's a great idea nevertheless

This would be great, nice suggestion Seyi. I don't really think this would be a problem as it is planned for the actual MMO anyway.
Maybe if Vreg finishes the Chunin exams before the MMO release, it might be implemented into deathmatch for more content. But who knows.

Who said SLO:DM will stay the way it is at release, SLO:DM will actually keep getting updated with new content, game modes and maps while we work on the MMO. We can certainly have events in DM, like weekly or monthly automatically organized tournaments with rewards, but I don't see this being associated with shinobi rank. In DM, your shinobi rank will be directly associated with your ELO rating, you won't have to undergo exams to get a certain shinobi rank. Exams don't really fit in the whole DM environment, it's really a feature that would only work well in the actual MMO.

I just read the title lol, erm... I can see it happen in DM.

[StrawHatSeyi]

But the map should be relatively big. So it give people time to hide and compose themselves, also, it give the element of surprise and makes it hard for people to find you.

This idea is great, there should also be an private chat so the player can talk to their teammates in private.

[Heimdallr]

I see this in two ways, first that you said and second where its a "battleground" without death penalty but lasts longer for like 5 hours, you have to get scrolls, survive, then first test is passed and it comes to 1v1

[Vreg]

SLO:DM will not be taking place in the open world that SLO:MMO will be in, imagine DM to be a bunch of small servers with each one having a capacity of min. 2 - max. 64 players. Each small server will also have a specific game mode turned on (many are planned) taking place on a specific map (many are planned, in terms of size think about the current map in the test).

In terms of customization, in the first iteration of SLO:DM we plan to have basic customization limited to choosing gender, clothing (+color), hair (+color), skin color and eye color. Customizing body proportions and custom skins will not be present in DM 1.0.

[TheRealKuha]

Hey Vreg, do you have an idea when DM 1.0 might come out?
