Missions assigned for one match?

After a short discussion here a thought came to my mind. We all know how pub games can end up being absolutely deprived of teamwork. And yet we all know how important are missions and credits. So, what if game would give you a mission preciesly for one match? For example “revive X people” or “get X xp obtained by repairing obj”. You made it, you get some bonus credits.

This way game could assign mission depending on what your team need. Two players get medic mission, another two engi mission, etc. But, of course these assignments would be dependant on what you brought in your squad. And this is a possible problem.

What do you think about it? Sounds like a good idea or current system is fine with you?

I’d rather see some credit bonuses for the best engineer/medic/assault/fire_support/etc in the team. If you happen to get them it’s a nice feeling. If not then oh well. That way you can select a merc your team really needs and if you do well you get a reward. No nagging feeling that you miss out on a “kill X enemies” mission because my team needs a medic/engineer etc.

It’s easier to code and maintain. With “do a thing X times” you need to pick a good value of X, which may vary depending on map, side, server size, current merc/weapon balance etc. Picking the best player in a category is much easier.

It’s enough that I have a dead slot in my squad because I got a mission for Vassili. I don’t want to get a “score X headshots” on top of that.

You have a point. But I didn’t see any dev or community manager to have any interest in best eng/med/etc badges :wink:
