With the new quest system, some maps are now only available if the player is
doing the correct quest. Such maps will also be available only once.
Are you sure? I think that quests are restartable? But maybe not. Perhaps
only certain quests are restartable.
For instance, the animator's quest in Scorn, or the Titan quest.
I admit I'm not that glad of those restrictions. One should probably be able
to enter any map (unless some restrictions to enter are really mandatory),
but
maps like titan quest are good places to find monsters.
What are your opinions?
Well, I'm not sure, but perhaps a compromise is to make sure the quests are
restartable some relatively small number of times, or, say restartable after
some length of time, or some other creative and reasonable parameter. I tend
to think that Crossfire will be a better game with some limitations on playing
the same maps over and over and over again.
Now I don't play a lot, so my play times are often spanned by large amounts of
time and I like to be able to replay maps that I have not done in a long time
just to re-enjoy them without necessarily trying to abuse the map. In this
way I guess I agree. I would really like to be able to revisit maps at least
a little bit.
I still think that somehow map abuse should probably be nerfed. Like tracking
frequency of use and somehow downgrading earned experience, but then I don't
know... maybe that is a map problem rather than a game mechanics problem.
