Open Letter To Fdevelop FDEV
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Instead of sending You an Email, I choose to use this forum hoping You'll read it.
I think probably there are others readers/games with similar thoughts of my below suggestion.

In Elite Dangerous there are milestones. In my oppinion it will be a natural part of this game
for the Players to strive for this ingame item, if it would gain various personal rewards;

i.e.

I imagine opon turning in a completed Rescure Mission from a Burning Station there is an ingame counter for
the amount of times I have completed a Rescure Mission.

In the likes of after maybe 20 completed missions, My ship and I will be rewarded with a Special Sticker and
after 100 Rescue missions, My ship and I are rewarded with a special "Rescure Skin".

This method can be integrated in various parts of the game as well, like Mining, Explorer,
the numbers of Community Goals the player has participated in etc.

This is kind of already done but is restricted to Combat, CQC, Trade, and Exploration as activity groups.

In our player stats, visible in-game via the RH MFD most of what you are referring to is already collected in some shape or form.

I think I get where you are going but perhaps you could be a little more specific in terms of what "Badge Series" you would like to see implemented. For example:-
  1. Thargoid/Guardian kills going towards an AX combat badge series. (Currently probably just counts towards Combat)
  2. Rescue/Salvage turn-ins going towards a Rescue badge series. (Currently probably just counts towards Exploration)
  3. Mining going towards some form of Mining badge series, could be multiple variants depending on type of mining. (Currently probably just counts towards Trade)
Overall, I believe there are already suggestion threads along these lines. Not sure if FD thinks this kind of idea fits with their vision for ED though.

Currently anything like that is probably in the codex where no one else can see it so I do like the principle here. If you have an Inara account there is a measure of some of the activities you've done and a series of 'medals' for doing enough of those activities. It exists, so people obviously want it, so it would be good to have something similar in game.
