The '''Mission Architect''', fictionally presented as a training exercise for Heroes and Villains, allows players to build their own [[mission]]s and [[Story Arc]]s and share them with others in the game. Using a point-and-click interface and filling in all the text of a mission, players can create story arcs of up to five separate missions by selecting options like size and type of the map, mission objectives, encounter types, and difficulty level of each encounter, as well as choosing the powers and costumes of some of the foes.

The '''Mission Architect''', fictionally presented as a training exercise for Heroes and Villains, allows players to build their own Missions and Story Arcs and share them with others in the game. Using an intuitive interface similar to the game's detailed Character Creator, players can create missions by selecting options like size and type of map/environment, mission objectives and encounter types, and difficulty level of each encounter. Additionally, players can write all mission story fiction and character dialogue.
+
Player-created content has been internally talked about for a very long time, as evidenced by a post[http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Number=8320859#Post8320859] by [[Statesman (Developer)|Jack Emmert]] in 2007:
 +
:''I think player created content can be GREAT...if it's handled correctly.''
  
−
This feature was announced by Positron in April 28th 2008[http://www.cityofheroes.com/news/archives/2008/04/a_message_from.html].
+
:''... We've always talked about ways to get player material into the game...imagine using the base creator tools to make your own missions! Or a your own training room? Maybe some day we can figure a way to put this stuff into the game. The imagination just on these forums alone is so amazing; I can only hope we find a way an outlet for it.''
  
−
Players can create their own missions and they can play missions that have been created by other players. Once you have finalized and "published" your missions, they are accessible by all players across all servers. All players can rate player created missions and a Mission Browser lets players find available missions and story arcs through a variety of tabs, sorts and filters in an auction house type environment.
+
And [[Issue 14]] finally realized the dream.
  
−
As missions are played and more people positively rate them, the creator gains rewards and access to unlockable content for his/her missions. Rewards will also be given to players of the missions. Players will gain rewards such as badges and even XP for playing user created missions and story arcs.
 
  
−
The Mission Architect will allow you to create your own named bosses, such as their costumes, powers, and spawn places. You can only have maps for missions that you have visited. By getting high ratings and having many people play your story arcs, you gain rewards such as Signature Villains/heroes as well as some unique maps to make into missions.

'''Architect''' is a company created by [[Dr. Aeon|Dr. Thaddeus Aeon AQSA]], with [[Crey|Crey Industries]] funding.  The prime motive of the company is to bring opportunity to all citizens of [[Paragon City]] and the [[Rogue Isles]] to create their very own pockets of theoretical existence for others to experience first hand as a new form of entertainment.
+
  
−
Key factors in the origins of the company include:

''Architect Entertainment'' is a company created by [[Dr. Aeon|Dr. Thaddeus Aeon AQSA]], with [[Crey Industries]] funding. For a description of the Mission Architect from the mad doctor himself, see: [http://web.archive.org/web/20121014173422/http://na.cityofheroes.com/en/news/paragon_journals/mission_architect.php From the personal memoirs of Dr. Thaddeus Aeon AQSA]
  
−
* Possibility of new perspective on how to deal with [[Professor Echo]].
+
Most city zones have [[Architect Entertainment Buildings]]. Players can find them marked on their maps with an [[AE]] logo (there is an option on the mini-map that will toggle its visibility).
−
* Revenge on [[Television]] for forcing Dr. Aeon to [[Television#Watch_more_Television|write a scientific report encouraging everyone to watch more television]].
+
−
* To follow up the commercial success of [[Technofreak_Badge#Monument_3|NutriPaste]].
+
  
−
Dr Aeon and [[Positron]] have both noted individually that Architect has the potential for great beneficial and humanitarian results throughout the world.
+
== Create, Test, Publish, and Play ==
 +
Players can have a maximum of eight arcs (three free and up to five purchased arc slots) per account. A published arc can contain up to five missions. All Architect missions are [[Instanced Map|instanced]], accessible through the Data Stream in the center of each building. While players are on an Architect mission, it is similar to being on a [[Task Force]]/[[Strike Force]]; other contacts are unavailable. However, unlike Task Forces, players may still be invited after the arc is started.
  
−
== More Info ==
+
Missions can be level restricted, meaning players can be forced to [[sidekick|sidekick or exemplar]] for the duration of a mission. The level restriction of each mission is separate; one mission might sidekick, the next could exemplar.
  
−
=== What is Mission Architect? ===
+
Missions are saved locally. There is an 'autosave' option, which overwrites itself every couple minutes with the arc's current data. If the player gives their arc a unique file name, the autosave option overwrites this file instead. {{red|WARNING:}} not giving an arc a unique file name and autosaving to the generic autosave file can cause loss of data if updating more than one arc. The newest save is always the current arc being worked on, so ''use unique file names''. Due to being saved locally, story arcs can be edited offline as text files. The file structure takes a little getting used to, but it is fairly simple.
  
−
Mission Architect is a new game system for the City of Heroes massively multiplayer game. It allows players to create their own stories and share those stories with other players on the live servers. Creators can pick from hundreds of maps and thousands of characters. They can use existing characters or create their own custom enemies. They can get even more detailed and create full enemy groups, giving each enemy unique costumes and powers. Players are allowed to write all of the dialog for their story as well as decide on level of difficulty and enemy placement. The developers have even given players the ability to trigger one mission goal off of another, creating a chain of events within a single mission. Each story can have up to five chapters or missions and each mission can hold up to a maximum of 25 achievable goals. For people who just want to play the user-created content, they can access the mission browser that shows all the generated content. Players can sort these stories by name, highest rated, length and recently added. Players can also filter content to show only those with specific ratings, arcs you have or haven’t played, as well as the alignment of the story. As people play content, they’ll be able to rate that content from one to five stars. Creators will actually get in-game benefits for making content that gets highly rated. The developers even offer a Dev Choice and Hall of Fame standing for the best of the best. [http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=13119948]
+
The Mission Architect allows players to create their own named bosses and foes, customizing their costumes, powers, and where and how they appear in the mission. Additionally, mission maps can be selected [[Mission Architect Unique Maps|specifically]] (specifying the [[Marvin Weintraub#Crash the Freaklympics awards ceremony and arrest Mistah Static|''Freaklympics'']] map) or by a randomized choice of a certain type of map (random choice from all abandoned warehouse maps). There are close to a thousand maps to choose from and more are being made available.
  
−
=== What it's not ===
+
Those who play MA arcs get [[Ticket]] Rewards in place of drops (unless they are playing a [[Developer's Choice]] arc with normal rewards turned on), as well as influence and [[Architect Entertainment Badges|badges]]. Tickets can be used to buy a variety of items, such as enhancements and recipes, or unlockable content for mission creators, like signature villains or unique maps.
  
−
The Mission Architect is not a power leveling, farming, or badging tool. (Exception for badges directly related to the Mission Architect.) The developers have taken various steps to prevent this feature from being used for those purposes, but I'll discuss those later.

=== Architect Entertainment Stations ===
 
  
−
It will all start at Architect Entertainment Stations (AES) placed in multiple zones throughout the game. (1 in a co-op zone was implied, but not guaranteed.) Here you will be able to search for other player made missions to go on with or without a team, or create, save, load, test, publish, or unpublish your own missions. (More on those new terms later.) A quick note about the mission search engine. It will have to sort through content made by ALL players that have published a mission. So it's expected to load slower than the markets load. (Honestly just the search engine alone on the Architect was a big undertaking and we appreciate all of the devs' work that went into it!)
+
== Ratings ==
 +
All players can rate published missions from 1 to 5 stars, and leave a comment. As missions are played and more people positively rate them, the creator gains rewards such as Tickets and badges and possibly having their arcs designated Hall of Fame or Developer's Choice.
  
−
=== What to Expect ===
+
Additionally, players can leave comments for the author (sent as [[Global Chat Handle|global]] [[tell (Slash Command)|tells]]) with suggestions or anything else.
  
−
A published arc can contain up to five missions. All Architect missions will be instanced and not in an open zone. While you are on an Architect mission it will be similar to being on a Task/Strike Force in regards to other contacts being greyed out. You may well notice that your toon's level has changed while in the mission. Your level can shift in either direction and can even vary with each mission in the arc.  
+
Also while rating, players can also report arcs as inappropriate and give reasons why. Arcs with many reports will automatically be hidden from the search function until reviewed by a [[GM]]. Arcs that are banned take up a story arc slot until re-evaluated by a GM, which reduces the number of arc slots that player can use.
  
−
After the published mission is complete, you can rate it as thumbs up, thumbs down, or inappropriate and why.

=== Not for Farming or PLing ===

== Rewards ==
 +
:''Main Article:'' [[Ticket]]
  
−
Opinions on farming and powerleveling are seldom neutral, and this isn't a forum for that discussion. It is, however, where you get informed of how the devs are going to discourage the Architect from being overrun with intentionally mindless stuff from folks that do not care about the stories the Architect is intended to encourage. Please keep in mind things can change between now and implementation.
+
Full experience (XP) and influence rewards will be granted for defeating enemies in player-made content.  
  
−
The developers are granting full experience (XP) and influence rewards for defeating enemies in player-made content. They are also giving players tickets in place of random drops. They can take these tickets to an Architect ticket vendor and redeem them for various in-game rewards, such as enhancements, recipes and salvage. They are also allowing players to purchase unlockable content with their tickets. They’ll be able to get maps, costume pieces and different characters. [http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=13119948]
+
However, in place of drops and end-of-mission XP bonuses, players earn Tickets. Players can take these Tickets to an Architect [[Ticket Vendor]] and redeem them for various in-game rewards, such as enhancements, recipes and salvage. Players will be able to purchase unlockable content with their tickets. They’ll be able to get maps, costume pieces and different characters.  
  
−
While in an Architect mission, players will NOT get: end mission bonus, salvage, recipes, or enhancements.
+
Story Arcs promoted to Dev's Choice can offer standard rewards or ticket drops at the players discretion. Choosing standard rewards will treat the mission like developer content, dropping enhancements, recipes and salvage. Choosing Architect rewards will treat the mission like a regular Mission Architect story, and will only drop Architect Tickets. However, the end-of-mission XP bonus is still omitted, even if the player chooses standard rewards.
  
−
The only badges that will be awarded are those tied to the Architect. Defeat, Healing, Debt, and other non-Architect badges are not awarded.
+
=== Restricted Rewards in MA ===
 +
Only [[Architect Entertainment Badges]] can be obtained in Architect Entertainment missions. This means no [[critter]] defeats count for [[Defeat Badges]], [[Achievement Badges]] do not increment, etc. Even if a Story Arc gets promoted to Dev's Choice or Hall of Fame, these badges are still unavailable through the Mission Architect missions.  
  
−
=== Creating a mission for you and/or others ===
+
The way the custom foes were designed and the limitation on arcs (like the inability to place foes exactly where one would like) are designed to prevent the Mission Architect from becoming a [[Power Level]]ing tool. Changes have been made several times to curb the use of [[exploit]]s and [[bug]]s to gain extra rewards, including altering enemies to give different rewards within Architect versus without, changing or removing maps, and other ways.
−
 
+
−
The exact order of mission creation isn't known, but at various points you will pick a mission type and goals, enemies and level, possibly a NPC combat ally(s) and/or custom boss, and a pre-made map and write the thing and save. The devs have promised us over 1,000 maps to choose from at launch, including all unique maps. (They also said no one wants to see Hamidon in the 5-layer room.) They would like to get us a mapmaker at some point, but that point will not be at launch. (It's a lot of work for that, folks.) Likewise mobs will spawn on the maps at preset points.
+
−
 
+
−
The ability to add a custom boss is the feature we demanded and the reason we are getting the Architect an issue later. It's known that in i13 we get the ability to save and load costumes from our toons to our local computer. We will also be able to download it to a custom boss. Each one will get a primary (attack) and a secondary power set. It was asked by an audience member if we would be able to scale our custom bosses to Elite Bosses or Archvillain/Hero, but I wasn't clear on the answer given.
+
−
 
+
−
No ambushes will be possible with the Architect. Also no cut scenes.
+
−
 
+
−
Mission type and goals like glowie clicks or kill-alls are easy enough to understand. Turns out there is a link between enemies and level though, as enemies exist in various ranges and don't always scale out of those ranges well. Call it quality control for a better play experience.
+
−
 
+
−
Enemies and allies can be pretty much anything you can already fight somewhere in the game. At the time of Herocon, even Giant Monsters were available for use in Architect missions. I inferred that Giant Monsters may change before launch however. One member of the panel commented that the day before they had fought against 6 AV Clockwork Kings with another one helping them in an Architect mission!
+
−
 
+
−
Writing well is always a challenge, and this won't be any different. You will be able to compose briefings, NPC dialog, clues, debriefings, and souvenirs, just the same as the devs! Please keep in mind that the developers have spell checking software in their process that isn't in the Architect. So take some time to double-check for typos is my advice.
+
−
 
+
−
Saving is done to your local computer, and you can save an unlimited number of missions. You can edit your saved missions offline, as the data is contained in a text file.
+
−
 
+
−

You can load up a saved mission and run it for yourself or your team. This can be useful for laughs or less widespread applications like SG initiations and the like.

You can only have three published story arcs (which can contain up to five missions each) per account, but you can publish and unpublish at will.

You can create a single mission rather quickly, in less then ten or fifteen minutes. However, to truly craft something unique and excellent, you’ll have to spend a decent amount of time in the tool. It could take someone a couple of days of to write, build and test something really good. [http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=13119948]

Latest revision as of 15:45, 14 April 2014

Overview

The Mission Architect, fictionally presented as a training exercise for Heroes and Villains, allows players to build their own missions and Story Arcs and share them with others in the game. Using a point-and-click interface and filling in all the text of a mission, players can create story arcs of up to five separate missions by selecting options like size and type of the map, mission objectives, encounter types, and difficulty level of each encounter, as well as choosing the powers and costumes of some of the foes.

Player-created content has been internally talked about for a very long time, as evidenced by a post[1] by Jack Emmert in 2007:

I think player created content can be GREAT...if it's handled correctly.
... We've always talked about ways to get player material into the game...imagine using the base creator tools to make your own missions! Or a your own training room? Maybe some day we can figure a way to put this stuff into the game. The imagination just on these forums alone is so amazing; I can only hope we find a way an outlet for it.

And Issue 14 finally realized the dream.

The Company

Main Articles: Architect Entertainment, Architect Entertainment Buildings

Architect Entertainment is a company created by Dr. Thaddeus Aeon AQSA, with Crey Industries funding. For a description of the Mission Architect from the mad doctor himself, see: From the personal memoirs of Dr. Thaddeus Aeon AQSA

Most city zones have Architect Entertainment Buildings. Players can find them marked on their maps with an AE logo (there is an option on the mini-map that will toggle its visibility).

Create, Test, Publish, and Play

Players can have a maximum of eight arcs (three free and up to five purchased arc slots) per account. A published arc can contain up to five missions. All Architect missions are instanced, accessible through the Data Stream in the center of each building. While players are on an Architect mission, it is similar to being on a Task Force/Strike Force; other contacts are unavailable. However, unlike Task Forces, players may still be invited after the arc is started.

Missions can be level restricted, meaning players can be forced to sidekick or exemplar for the duration of a mission. The level restriction of each mission is separate; one mission might sidekick, the next could exemplar.

Missions are saved locally. There is an 'autosave' option, which overwrites itself every couple minutes with the arc's current data. If the player gives their arc a unique file name, the autosave option overwrites this file instead. WARNING: not giving an arc a unique file name and autosaving to the generic autosave file can cause loss of data if updating more than one arc. The newest save is always the current arc being worked on, so use unique file names. Due to being saved locally, story arcs can be edited offline as text files. The file structure takes a little getting used to, but it is fairly simple.

The Mission Architect allows players to create their own named bosses and foes, customizing their costumes, powers, and where and how they appear in the mission. Additionally, mission maps can be selected specifically (specifying the Freaklympics map) or by a randomized choice of a certain type of map (random choice from all abandoned warehouse maps). There are close to a thousand maps to choose from and more are being made available.

Those who play MA arcs get Ticket Rewards in place of drops (unless they are playing a Developer's Choice arc with normal rewards turned on), as well as influence and badges. Tickets can be used to buy a variety of items, such as enhancements and recipes, or unlockable content for mission creators, like signature villains or unique maps.

Mission Architect Guides


Ratings

All players can rate published missions from 1 to 5 stars, and leave a comment. As missions are played and more people positively rate them, the creator gains rewards such as Tickets and badges and possibly having their arcs designated Hall of Fame or Developer's Choice.

Additionally, players can leave comments for the author (sent as global tells) with suggestions or anything else.

Also while rating, players can also report arcs as inappropriate and give reasons why. Arcs with many reports will automatically be hidden from the search function until reviewed by a GM. Arcs that are banned take up a story arc slot until re-evaluated by a GM, which reduces the number of arc slots that player can use.


Rewards

Main Article: Ticket

Full experience (XP) and influence rewards will be granted for defeating enemies in player-made content.

However, in place of drops and end-of-mission XP bonuses, players earn Tickets. Players can take these Tickets to an Architect Ticket Vendor and redeem them for various in-game rewards, such as enhancements, recipes and salvage. Players will be able to purchase unlockable content with their tickets. They’ll be able to get maps, costume pieces and different characters.

Story Arcs promoted to Dev's Choice can offer standard rewards or ticket drops at the players discretion. Choosing standard rewards will treat the mission like developer content, dropping enhancements, recipes and salvage. Choosing Architect rewards will treat the mission like a regular Mission Architect story, and will only drop Architect Tickets. However, the end-of-mission XP bonus is still omitted, even if the player chooses standard rewards.

Restricted Rewards in MA

Only Architect Entertainment Badges can be obtained in Architect Entertainment missions. This means no critter defeats count for Defeat Badges, Achievement Badges do not increment, etc. Even if a Story Arc gets promoted to Dev's Choice or Hall of Fame, these badges are still unavailable through the Mission Architect missions.

The way the custom foes were designed and the limitation on arcs (like the inability to place foes exactly where one would like) are designed to prevent the Mission Architect from becoming a Power Leveling tool. Changes have been made several times to curb the use of exploits and bugs to gain extra rewards, including altering enemies to give different rewards within Architect versus without, changing or removing maps, and other ways.

Dev's Choice and Hall of Fame

There are two ways around the story arc limitation. Those ways are the Dev's Choice and Hall of Fame. These actually copy arcs onto the game servers and delete them from their published slot, freeing them.

Dev's choice simply means a dev liked it enough to save it. It's not canon, but they liked it!

Arcs enter the Hall of Fame when a large number of players rate an arc favorably.

Both of these are search options in the Architect menu.
