We need achievements for Hardcore

Hardcore mode and achievements are simply made for each other. Request to the Blizzard company - in the next fresh hardcore classic make with the achievement system, please. Thank you.

Let that be a character specific one - or else give us the ability to totally disable it.

It’s a great idea to have an option in the interface to turn off the achievement system if you don’t like it.

I sure like achievements - the character specific, Classic ones. I’m a completionist :innocent:

Appeal to the Blizzard game designer and popular streamers.
I propose to implement the above idea about achievements in the Hardcore mode in the following version:
“WOW CLASSIC HARDCORE ACHIEVEMENT TOURNAMENT”

  1. A tournament with a prize fund, designed for a certain period.
    A unique feature and know-how of the tournament is that the number of points for achievements will be equivalent to the difficulty/prestige of the achievement. For example, for “first on the server” they will give much more achievement points, killing regular bosses will bring fewer points than killing raid bosses, and so on.
  2. Possible rewards for achievements that do not affect the gameplay. You can add a visual effect that is thematically appropriate to the essence of the achievement, for example, “the first on the server to level 60” will be rewarded with a visual effect/animation in the form of wings, or for killing bosses, an animation thematically related to this boss or a vehicle that does not affect the balance. Ranks near nickname.
  3. Introducing PvP content on hardcore servers - the ability to play in BG and arena (with alchemy and engineering and items with “activation on pressing”) - without dying forever and related achievements.

Make WoW Great Again

  1. & 2.
    I think this would be great for either a Seasonal or for a dedicated group of people to implement. Yes it can be done - not the in-game achievement part, but all the rest - with a non-Blizz crew.

For more ideas of this kind of tournaments go to the IronMan Challenge website, they have around 13 years’ worth of experience in how to arrange stuff like this.

BGs yes, but no death => no rewards except for achievements and cosmetics - else you create a “shortcut” to OP gear - either undermining the idea of HC or forcing everybody into BGs.

You wanted classic, you got classic. No achievements for you.

That’s the main feature of the proposed innovations - they will NOT CHANGE OR DISTORT the game, like the changes we saw in SOD, which affected abilities and mechanics. They can also be hidden in the interface if desired.

Achievements are aimed at the dopamine system of players and only emphasize the coolness of the hardcore mode of the classic.

No, we wanted Hardcore, a lot of us would like to also have HC TBC and HC Wrath servers.

A lot of whom? Any proof?..

A lot of HC players of course.

Yes, anecdotal in huge amounts from speaking with my fellow HC players while playing.

Extra question: Are you an alt of Briskët?

So no real proof :roll_eyes:

Whaddaya want? Look around in the forums, on Reddit, ask in-game yourself. In these quuestions “proof” is not as easy to get as making people sign Guild Charter :slight_smile:

I look from time to time and can definitely tell it’s not the majority who wants TBC HC, it’s not discussed often, especially considering HC community is not that big.

No I don’t know who is that as I don’t even have this weird e letter on my keyboard.

Whoever spoke of a majority?
I said a lot.

ë is not on my keyboard ether, it is made by first pressing the key ¨ is on, then e. it’s one of those composite letter like also é, ñ, ò …

I only asked because you continued his discussion.

And back on topic.

Achievements could be a fun addition - but honestly I think they would have a better place in a seasonal HC server than in the Classic HC one. Somehow it’s not totally fittting there.
And yes, I know the API is there, the possibibty to make achievements exist - unlike in the beginning.

But let’s hope HC will also be given TBC and eventually Wrath servers with the achievement system augmented for HC.

A lot — how many ppl approximately?

No idea, I don’t count. It’s only like … most I talk about HC TBC with would like it.

And why is this of any interest to you? If you’d like it too, all fine. If not, don’t play it.

Sure sure.

I like the idea of ​​a Hardcore mode with a continuation in BC and Wotlk. But it will be a more difficult task for the developers. In addition, it will segment the community into those who only like vanilla and do not play further versions on principle, regardless of the HC mode.

My proposal - 1.) Does not change anything in the gameplay, but gives a new motivation to players, will make the gameplay more diverse and will expand the range of game actions. 2.) Will have a positive effect on the game economy. 3.) For developers, this is a minimum of labor costs in implementation + the maximum result for attracting an additional audience, additional subscriptions of game time. (this is what the players want).
4.) A good reason for a fresh server.

and

Do not go well together :wink:

I think the idea of Achievements in HC actually will split the HC community into those wanting “pure” Hardcore for the personal satisfaction (smallest group), and those who likes to have an achievement to show for their work (larger group)
And yet another fresh server will further split it.

EDITED.

The funny thing is that the IronMan community has been asking Blizz to “please give us an achievement upon reaching max level” since 2012.

Better would be in my opinion to fight for the cloning or continuation of the HC Annivesary servers into a HC Era TBC with Achievements.
