How come I'm the only one from the narrative-editors who does any editing/feedback? grumble..


Don't look at me, I just edit the grammar and make sure that it is English a-ok. I bet my Cougar you won't find a single grammar or spelling error in there! B)

Maybe we should coordinate the team a bit better. I am no good with the mechanics of the game, so I usually just read through the grammar, and if it is okay, sign off on it and pass it through to the finalized list. I've never done a single mission before in the game, and I rarely time my travels, so I am not the authority to look for in this regard. Perhaps there can be an intermediate stage so that the other editors can look at the mission prizes and see if they're appropriate.

I searched the forums, and cant seem to find an answer, but about how long does it take to have a mission looked at/approved(if it's good)

Also, how will I know if someone has looked at it??

The best bet is probably to PM me, Dryfus. I do check for new narrative missions looking for feedback, but not regularly as they're quite rare. I'm not sure if the other editors check at all.

You'll know that someone has looked because you'll see some comments provided by them.

Agree with Firefly, love this idea.

One thing - especially for multi-stage missions, please allow enough time to complete the mission for people that can't play every day. This is particularly important if you need to travel through several towns, since it can take up to 10 real time hours to get to the next town. I just had a cool mission 'Double Crossed' fail because I only had 3 days to go from SS to BL - and I was busy all weekend (mission failed in route to BL after all encounters processed - very annoying).

Hello,
Right now all the missions are viewable by anyone (or by me, at least). Is that deliberate?

Mission: Double crossed

A few things stuck out with this mission once I completed it.

The character in the mission is listed as a female with possible psi/drug issues.

Unfortunately the server randomly generates a taxi client that can be male with no psi/drug issues.(messes up the continuity of the story)


The payout for the end of this mission is too small. Escort mission payouts just to GW are triple the payout of this mission and this mission involves a multi town escort beyond GW, that's how small it is. For a mission that says it “pays well”, it has one of the lowest payouts that I can recall of all the missions except babysteps.

well I haven't done the mission but it wouldn't take much to work around something like that.
Write the passenger as gender neutral and pick a reason that isn't part of the character info.

Yup finished this today, decided to be a good guy and drooped her (him) off in BL, got paid but mission still listed as active (stage 7) and don't see any other things i can do around the shops there.

Would be nice if you got so much as an "thank you" for finishing missions
