Enginseer-42 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 So, right now, Antag Objectives are fairly random. What if rather than randomly assigning objectives at round start. You instead got a certain number of Objective Points, and could use these to claim Objectives off the Objective Board. With which you could claim objectives. So you could choose whether you wanted a Protect or Assassinate, or whatever. In order to keep people from always choosing Hijack, make it so that when you COMPLETE your objectives, you can report back to the Syndicate. If the objective is fulfilled, (You have the stolen item in your hand, or the target is dead or what have you.) You increase in rank and get MORE objective points and possibly a couple of Telecrystals. Keep climbing the ranks until the round ends or you get arrested/killed.

Kyet Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Antag objectives exist largely to limit antag behavior - and make sure the station doesn't go to hell in the first five minutes. In general, most antags don't have hijack, and some may just be out to steal, which adds a degree of subtlety and discourages mass-murder. If you let people choose their own objectives, and reward them with points for doing 'harder' ones, then the people who kill the most will end with the most points and thus the most freedom, which will result in chaos.

Your experience might not be representative. Admins are more likely to give extra objectives to players who aren't that deadly. You're very deadly, and thus you're less likely than most to get extra objectives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeiH Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Why not tie bonus objectives with more TC? traitor uplinks on certain rounds could have an extra section for optional objectives; you could take an advance to get more telecrystals now, or complete it and get even more telecrystals later. Giving traitors the ability to discard and draw objectives would be great for players who prefer not murdering people or for people who love greentext and just want objectives like "steal a plasma tank" and "steal an unused slime extract" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
