Talk:Architect Entertainment Badges

Gathering Info

In case we need the text for any badges, CIT now has it in the detailed descriptions for the badges. --Eabrace 14:53, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Actually, most of the badges there do not have the description. We have more descriptions than they do. :D They do have all of the requirements, if we're missing any, though. -- Agge (talk) 17:30, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

I’d like to answer those questions now:

Q: What about non-Mission Architect badges?

A: We have no current plans to revisit old badges at this time, and I don’t foresee us doing this really. All badges unrelated to the Mission Architect will remain unaffected by the changes outlined above.

Q: If I’ve already earned the Architect badges, will I get to keep them?

A: No. Only the badges listed above in the “badges that will remain” section will be kept.

Q: What can you tell me about the badges that remain?

A: These badges have all been modified so that they are granted for a first time accomplishment. For example: The first time you rescue a kidnapped NPC you’ll earn the Extractor badge. The same goes for the other badges that will remain in Issue 15. They’re much easier to earn, but they require a player to try every aspect of Mission Architect to earn them all.

Q: What about the Mission Engineer Accolade badge?

A: This badge had its required badges changed to the following:

Thrill Seeker

Gamer

Ticket Taker

Author

Recognized

Early Bird

Customizer

Bug Fixer

Q: If I have some or all of the badges listed as badges that will remain, will I get to keep them?

A: Absolutely. You should not have to earn the remaining badges again.[/noquote]

Rest of this info is on the official forums...

Anyone able to update the wiki for I15's info asap?

Notes on the pending badge removal have already been added to the Issue 15 article. Typically we'd likely wait until at least open beta to update things like the individual badge pages, but I can see some rationale for adding a note at the bottom of the badges that will be affected by the announced changes until then. --Eabrace 13:08, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
