Expert level co-op maps should NOT be a contract!

[ironcladtrash]

This is the only end game content and it is extremely easy to get to 5k now.

True but what about the T5 mods, surely everyone deserves a shot at them?

nope, and tbh i don't think anyone under 5k should be allowed to play an expert co-op map even with an invite

[Gigibop]

The expert level co-op maps should not be a contract at all because any egos lower than 5k cannot do them and I know they can be invited but most the time nobody will invite them and some even see them as a liability and vote to kick them and lower egos get screwed out of a weekly contract. Please remove it being part of contracts period.

More tears. My sig. <3

Of course there are people who only read the title and then give their input. Also this is in no way crying as I said I am able to do these. I was speaking for OTHER lower egos NOT ME. Now I hope yall can read and understand that.

Solution:

Divide the daily and weekly contracts up by tiers.
If the contract is to run Explosions 101 for example, then you are given the contract tier appropriate to your EGO level, which in turn rewards you with an appropriate amount of Cores.

EGO 1-2999 = Contract difficulty Normal = Core reward 1
EGO 3000-4999 = Contract difficulty Advanced = Core reward 2
EGO 5000+ = Contract difficulty Expert = Core reward 3

Or something along those lines.

It also has the side benefit of making the currently pointless advanced mode have a purpose. Folks either run standard to get it done fast, or expert because of the contract requirement to earn cores, but I never see anyone run advanced.

The only thing the weekly and daily contracts get you are cores which are meant for end game high EGO. Lowered EGO players aren't losing out on anything. As it is right now it serves as a constant reminder to keep playing to get to 5k. There was almost no reason to do it before.

Uh... nope.

Vote to kick only kicks from group: you still complete the map.
They are probably kicking from group to get into the boss faster if someone is lagging behind.
I brought an 1800 into Explosions 101 today & 2 other 5k+ people joined. One jerk off sat the beginning of the map the entire time, then sat in the Hulker room, then waited there until the boss circle (I kicked him so we could do the boss...), and then sat through Dekuso. With ******bags like that AFKing, we NEED to be able to kick people. The 1800 EGO person wasn't the issue.

I think the system is fine. Sorry if you aren't 5000..... they can go put in the work if you want the rewards!

I understand its for 5k with the cores and all however what that other guy said sounds like a good idea put it in tiers

[Mathuu]

Level up, get friends, have a clan... It's been said repetedly. We have a tool at our disposal to accomplish these co-ops, yet some people refuse to use them. If you don't want to be social, have a clan, or make friends... Don't play an MMO, and don't expect to complete co-ops.

I think we should put a further requirement on co-ops that you have to have an existing 4 person team to even queue up. Make the daily Paradise an expert as well. I'm only EGO 2800ish, so don't accuse me of being a 5k Elitist.

Nope because then I would just pimp my EGO 200 chars and farm cores with them.
