More Global Unlocks (Concepts and Ideas)

Starting Context

Currently there are 3 Global Unlocks obtainable within the server. These include the following:

  • Avatar’s
  • Costumes
  • Hub Titles

I would like to give some of my ideas on new unlocks that would make hive play experience a lot more customisable and unique.

Why am I making this suggestion?

I’m making this suggestion because I felt like there should be a purely new unique way to get unlockable and a lot of new ones. The idea behind this is to allow players to customise themselves even more on the hive. And besides, we have had the 3 current global unlocks for a really long time so I felt it deserved more attention and a few new more concepts

New Global Unlock Ideas

I have come up with some concepts of what new global unlocks could be. However, you do not gain these unlocks for levelling up in games. There is a new way of obtaining these unlocks.

In order to obtain these unlocks, you will need a crate key. Crates can be found in random places scattered around the hub so you can unlock these. To obtain a crate key, you will need to play games on the Hive. For every win you get, there is a small chance 1-5% to get one. This is ONLY if you win a game. However the keys can unlock the following:

  • Kill Effects (All Games)
  • Win Effects (All Games)
  • Victory Poses (All Games)
  • Particle Trails (Hub Only) - May not be part due to lag

Victory poses have come from the link below. The idea's credit all goes to HudsonDog59

Crate Information

Crates will give a 1-5% chance (dependent if suggestion is implemented) to give you a key if you win a game. Crates will have different rarities of rewards so some effects will be more unique than others.

Rarities:

  • Mythic
  • Legendary
  • Epic
  • Rare
  • Uncommon
  • Common

Chances:

  • Mythic 1% Chance

  • Legendary 4% Chance

  • Epic 5% Chance

  • Rare 15% Chance

  • Uncommon 25% Chance

  • Common 50% Chance

Duplicates
If you manage to get a duplicate unlock, you will be granted the ability to add XP to any game. The amount of xp you can add to games will be dependent on what rarity you have been given the option on. Here is a small example below on how it could go

  • Mythic - 5000 XP
  • Legendary - 2500 XP
  • Epic - 1000 XP
  • Rare - 750 XP
  • Uncommon - 500 XP
  • Common - 250 XP

The XP amount granted is given on how common the reward is. Since mythic has a 1% chance, it would be a high XP amount (obviously)

Ideas I Scrapped

Here are some ideas I came up with but decided to scrap. I will also say why I scrapped them and decided not to include them within the list above.

Hub Armour
Hub armour would allow you to wear coloured leather pieces in the hub. I just felt that this would look really bad as there would be too many things to unlock and people would most likely get annoyed while unlocking armor pieces (They have no better use than to show off)

Pet Cosmetics
Yes, I did also scrap this. Only because most hive players do not own a hive pet at this time and it would be pretty disappointing to see they got a pet cosmetic while not owning a pet. This would be very unfair. (Maybe good for another suggestion guys)

One Final Note
If you could leave your feedback below and create some concepts for me maybe like more unlockable, I would happily add it to this list!
Thank you everyone! <3

I don’t really like the idea of hub particles and kill/win effects but Victory poses would definitely be awesome!

Another global unlock I could think of are emotes (not sure if this has been suggested before-). They recently revamped the emote feature and I would love unlockable emotes (for example an egg emote you can unlock by playing Ground Wars, a brick emote by playing Just Build and many more!)
