Please add Pins for everyone

"What are pins?"
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2553051541


The Fruitbat Factory pin is awesome and cute and I totally get that it's for staff only--that is completely fine! But can you please work on making pins for everyone to use? It would be so simple in theory since the execution is already there for one, and it could be just as simple to make new ones.


Here are some ideas for pins:
- the base-game dice icons (Pudding, Kai's wallet, Marc's missile, Earth)
- the class icons from co-op
- Poppo's face/mask
- an orange icon
- flowers (this could be seasonal like how events have flower hair accessories)
- fish from Fish a Fish


Hopefully people agree and this can possibly be a thing someday, I love all of the unlockable cosmetics in this game, they have been a huge motivator for me to play as much as I have

you should post this in the "What would you like to see next?" community thread, or in the #suggestions channel of the Fruitbat Factory discord.

in fact i'll do the latter for you, since i agree.

Good idea, thanks!

[Astral Mage]

Seconded, and expanding upon it.

I had an idea awhile ago for pins myself. What if you earned some pins through completing character's achievements (or alternatively spending oranges on them)? For example, if you completed all of X's campaign on Extreme, you'd earn a pin related to them, such as a melon or Earth for Suguri, Red Barrel for Marc, Pudding for QP, Kai's wallet, etc.

or, with the route of DLCs and achievements, completing every achievement related to a character would unlock their character pin. Earning "Bit by Bit," "Fully Deployed," and "Orders are Absolute!" with Nanako would award a Bit as their pin. Completing Tomomo Hell would award a Red Bean Ice Cream, etc.

FRB characters would get their planes as a pin, Suguri and Sora characters would get pins related to them or the equipment they use. So on and so forth.

Very cute/cool ideas! I especially like the one for Red Bean Ice Cream lol

this
we need this

[Meneluma]

We already have so many avatar and plate customization options...
The pins should be limited to special occasions, people who won/got honorable mentions in the card pack art contest, got a featured workshop mod or won an official tournament if there would ever be one.

People are freaking out about pins because no one has them, but once everyone has them they no longer have much meaning.

Gosh how I hate special treatment for staff.

[DrifT]

Better not. FBF staff maintain the game and keep the game updating, so they deserve some special treatment, like how valve employees have some "valve" quality stuff in their team fortress 2 inventory.

At least make them hard to obtain (earn X amount of online wins or something), if it has to be introduced.

No one is "freaking out", you are the only person being remotely hostile.

"We already have so many avatar and plate customization options..."
Okay? And as I stated previously this is a huge motivator for me and other players to play the game more, so why are you so strongly against adding more?

Some of you really need to read things all the way through and stop skimming and replying based on whatever negative ideas or impressions you got from what you read or think you read.

For everyone else, thanks for commenting and contributing

If you're being sarcastic then this is completely unnecessary since that is not my point in the slightest.

I agree. The idea of an unique and exclusive item awarded for doing more than simply playing the game is something I really like to see in games, and wish it existed in 100% OJ.

I think it is less about something special but actually a way to identify staff in the game so they don't become easily impersonated.

I find this rather amusing considering you were the one who made the sweeping generalization that everyone on the "maybe we should move away from DLC" thread wanted the game to be F2P even though that clearly wasn't the case.

The difference there was some people actually did say that and I was replying to those people, not the entire post nor the original person who made the post. Nice try.

[布林克克]

I "read things all the way through" and I don't like this idea. Most people play OJ for fun, not for "grindable" unlocks.

Agree, and In addition to that, I think people who made significant contribution to the wiki can also be awarded such a thing.

>implying you can't have fun and play the game while simultaneously working towards unlockables

This gem below is exactly what I was referring to.

If you're opposed to the DLC and posting in this thread I only assume you are down for f2p catches.

Wow, I see that you're really bothered by that seeing as you went out of your way to not only bring it up in an entirely different discussion, but to actually find the exact quote that hardly supports your argument because all I said was they are "down for f2p catches" and not that they literally want the game to be free to play. People were literally asking for things you find in your average free to play game, hence why I referred to them as "catches."
Do you understand now? Sorry you took that so personally but there is no reason to be petty about it and keep bringing it up. Let it go.
