Did you get to think a bit about this? : ) I'm posting my part, to get things started. Don't let yourself be too influenced by my perception of what we should do (the best is to only read this once you've compiled your own list!). ================= * Find a recurring "analyst" gameplay, which is not research on the Web, that pulls the player by email to play 5 minutes every day, and that provides tension (esearch missions would only be available through leveling) * Fix or replace the hacking minigame (maybe use the comment "I'd rather apply my technical skills to hacking a potentially unaware adversary, rather than quick reactions against a hostile one" ?) * Ask less of the player (reading, typing, researching): ** AI + text2speech ** Predetermined answers to click on * Make the game more fun => play with the chat answers * Bugs & usability improvements: ** Browser (appearance, back/forward, Google in English) ** Improve recognition of replies in chat ** Remove intro ** Add loading bar for slow connections ** Clarify which mission is active (and fix warning) ** Fix garbled text in chat when replying too fast ** Remove typos ** Visibility of hack/submit buttons ** Remove Planet Watch mission Also note that this is already too long of a list - we would have to keep the list of priorities shorter.
