Each 'week' there's a series of challenges players can complete.
When you complete these challenges, you get EXP, however, there are also a LIMITED number of rewards that are given out as players complete them.
Say, 5 or so special crates you can only obtain from there. if you're the first to complete this weeks challenges you get a crate, and it minuses 1 from the number of crates left. Once there are 0 rewards left, No more of them can be received, and you only obtain EXP instead.
This could be fun, and not flood the system with reward items. BUT it could also cause issues with people trying to rush to get the challenges done. It could possibly be avoided if I design the challenges carefully.
I could perhaps make them monthly challenges instead, to keep the 'rewards' at an even more minimum, and the 'rush' to complete them a little less 'intense'.
Pros:
Gives incentives to play more to get the challenges done.
Gives objectives/promotes different play styles you may not be used to.
Cons:
Could promote greed.
Could cause minor metagaming issues.
Metagaming issues could be partially erased if the challenges could only be completed with 8+ people on the server.
I think this is a good idea, having a bit of a competitive challenge system.
