How would a non-combat event make this game the premiere WW2 game?
Who wants to play Hell Let Loose for the truck race or IL-2 for STOL landings in a Po-2?
Word of Mouth through social media content showcasing the opportunities of winning cash prizes. It's a marketing tool rewarding continual play in the MA.
Initially, current players would be the initial winners. Once the social media content is sent out, former players will be encouraged to come back to the game. Finaly, new players will be drawn into the game.
Over time, former players and new players will eventually get the skills to compete and take their winning spots as well. Jeep racing, C-47 base capturing, bombing ground targets, sinking ships, and 262 racing will require much practice in the MA.
When the MA numbers begin to rise consistently, this will spill over into Special Events. This process will take time.
Many people here don't see the vision of non-combat events between players. If you tried KOTH and Combat Challenge for a cash tournament, new players and former players would never stand a chance against the players who never left the game and continually sharpened their skills in ACM.
The idea is to create a sandbox event where all players are equal in starting out with same equipment. Skill, experience, and luck become the deciding factors. True competition.
The craziest ideas sometimes be the best ideas. Crazy ideas are better than no ideas. Those who tear down crazy ideas only serve themselves.
If someone can envision player vs. player combat events with cash prizes, then I would love to read those ideas.
