Mod Post: Game Pacing
About
Hi guys!
First off, I wanted to say that I've really been enjoying modding this game so far, and that everyone has been completely lovely!
The point of this mod post is that I've been notified that a few people have found the pacing of the game too fast so far, that the pacing of missions and mini missions leaves people feeling like there's not enough time to do anything other than missions. Obviously, if this is a case and most of the game is feeling that way, I'd be happy to adjust the pace.
I do have a couple of concerns regarding changing the pace of the game at this time:
1) The game started on a half month, but is operating on a monthly basis, which means that the pace as it has been isn't necessarily going to be the pace going forward. There will be two full weeks longer between Mission #2 and the mini missions than there were between Mission #1 and the mini missions.
2) Mini missions are completely optional and intended to serve as something to do for faster taggers that can take on more threads.
I've come up with a few options to address this.
A) Keep the game as-is for the next two or three months and check back in at that time to see if the pacing is still too fast.
B) Remove the Mini Mission mechanic altogether, leaving just the major missions every other month.
C) Space out major missions to every three months and post mini missions on the month between the major missions.
Please let me know in the comments what your thoughts on the game's pacing are!
