TOPIC: [Pointshop] Daily objective streak changes

Server Name: Pointshop (Mostly concerning TTT objectives)

Suggestion Title: Daily objective streak change

How would it benefit the server: This tiny change would make completing objective streaks way more pleasant

Potential Issues/Exploits: Nada

Additional notes: So the current objective system gives you 3 objectives to complete daily. Objectives can vary from general to innocent/detective or traitor specific.

To have an daily streak on the objectives and get special rewards, you need to complete all 3 of the objectives daily for the streak to continue. I personally think it is a pain in the ass to require all 3 of the objectives completed each day for the streak.
Instead, have the required amount of objectives completed to continue the streak set to 1.
This does not mean that I'd want the total amount of playtime required to get the rewards lowered, rather make it more flexible so the player gets to decide how much he wants the streak rewards.

The total amount of objectives needed to complete for the biggest reward (7 day streak, snow card pack + 1,000 diamonds) is 21 objectives. So, instead of having to do 3 daily for 1 week, you could have the streak time vary from 1 week to 3 weeks.(3 objectives per day for 1 week =21, 1 objective daily for 21 days =21)

This way, players can choose how fast their progress towards the reward is and doesn't punish for not playing for 4 hours for one day. You could sweat one day and get all 3 and maybe chill the next day, completing only 1. The dailies can be really hard to do with many players online, or with too few. For example, Surviving for 10 rounds as innocent with 30 players on can take hours and hours of gameplay or Detective only dailies cannot be completed with less than 8 players, so depending on when the player has time to play, it is possible that they are completely unable to even complete all dailies even if they wanted to get the streak rewards.

TL:DR
Change the required 3 for 1 week to 21(or a different amount) of objectives done in a row daily.
I don't think this would bee too hard to implement, since it doesn't really require a lot of changes.

I heard this, but that is simply just not the case with the current objectives, that is why I proposed this idea. Also I thought that this would be a better version of the current streak system

it's neat that you listen to feedback and I'm happy to hear that you're willing to work on balancing of these objectives!

However, I think balancing TTT themed objectives is going to be really hard considering their nature. Some objectives which are on the easy/medium level of difficulty with low-mid player count become a pain to complete with high player count (for example 35+) and vice versa, some objectives easy to complete with many players become hard when there's a low amount of players on. Building a consistency based system like the daily streak with inconsistent objectives just doesn't work, at least with this implementation. Instead of naming the objectives that need fine-tuning I'll explain even further why the system should just be changed a bit.

The way the objectives difficulty varies depending on how many players are on actually works in your favor. The goal of having daily objectives is to keep a consistent player base by having something that the player can achieve every day. So, having objectives that are easy to do with only a few people around encourages players to join the server with less players, objectives that are easy to do with lots of players motivate players to join when the server is very populated.

In theory, this encourages players to join multiple times throughout the day at different times and on top of that, it helps repopulating the server when there aren't many players and keeping the high player count.

If you still aren't convinced to change the streak system I could suggest some number changes to fit the average player count on ZARP TTT minecraft.

Yes it would work but I feel like it's just a lazy solution to the problem

After taking some time to read through your suggestion and all the replies I've unfortunately decided against your proposed changes to the objective streaks mechanic. Instead of lowering the amount of objectives that need to be completed in order to keep up a streak I'd rather spend more time on balancing the existing objectives to make them easier to complete. I do however like the idea of being able to skip one objective per day for a small fee. I originally wanted to implement this in the christmas update but I unfortunately ran out of time. I'll probably implement a mechanic like this in the next big update. Thank you for taking the time to suggest changes to our Pointshop!
