Missions and Objectives
Sierra Madre's mission system is now up and running. The mission system allows the player to complete mini-missions / quests for in game cash. These missions are designed to help the player to explore the map and travel great distances. All missions have rewards proportional to their difficultly and the distance they require the player to travel.
In the first early access release of Sierra Madre there will only be three different mission types: Delivery, Outlaw Hunter, and Town Liberator. In the Delivery mission the player must drive a wagon from the town they are in to another town or trading post on the map. In the Outlaw Hunter mission the player must travel to the location marked on their map and take out the outlaw there. In the Town Liberator mission the player must kill all outlaws around the town or trading post that the outlaws are harassing. More mission types are planned for future updates after the first early access release.
To select a mission the player must go to the nearest Sheriff's station (which was suggested in this post) and select one of the missions from the board.
When the player is near the board and looking at a mission a description will pop up. After the player has selected a mission, an objective display will appear in the top left hand corner of the screen.
The mission's objectives will continue appearing as the player progresses through the mission.
Once the player has completed all of the objectives in the mission a completion banner will appear and the in game cash reward will be added to the player's inventory.
What do you guy's think about the new mission system? Any ideas for improvements? What missions would you like to see in future updates?
