new way to get programs

Do we always have to buy and raise our nano skills to just get and use a program? There should be other ways to do this since its hard enough already. They should make these programs that require either none or low nanoskills or completely different skills that fit our class. We should be able to get new progams by doing tasks that fit our class. Here are some examples:

Adventurer: Can aquire new programs if they find certain wonders of the world (Like that OT juggernaut up north), people, things, or monsters. Or make it tasks by unique NPCs to go find and possibly photograph? these things.

Agent: Has to aquire a contract from an NPC to assassinate someone and has to go find the target, then return when the job is done.

Bureaucrat: Gets a newprogram if they can mind control a certain monster. Or they could just talk it out of some NPCs.

Doctor: Gets a new program by the number of times they heal (lets say around the thousands) and has to go to omni-med or the clan hospital type place to pick it up.

Enforcer: Has to do a consecutive number of battles to get their program at some type of special battle arena where you fight unique monsters (like in Final Fantasy 7 at that casino).

Engineer: Has to fix/repair certain unique robot NPCs(could use the screwdriver to do this in conjunction with the mechanical skill).

Fixer: Has to steal from unique NPCs or just regular MOBs and brings the stolen item to a certain person in the blackmarket(whenever that gets implemeneted) to recieve the program.

Martial Artist: Goes to certain dojos around the world and trains under a Teacher. You could put the dojos in red mob areas to make it harder to get to or the MA just has to beat the teacher in a fight.

Meta-physicist: Has to anwser a riddle(s) given by an NPC? (Couldn't think of something better).

Nano-technician: Has to go to some place and do a nano-program battle with some evil guy (Could someone else think up something better).

Trader: Has to aquire a certain item and give it to an NPC (like give that guy who wants a mushroom a mushroom).

These are all just ideas that are here for your shaping. I would really like to hear how these ideas should be better. None the less I think this would make the game more intresting and make you more in-tune with your class.

ahhhh cooool yeah some kind of "non-eq/stats" based mission system (or whatever ehehe) ....

if i got you right, you'r talkin about hmmm let's say gettin some clothes from miir ... or furniture ..... or bigger appartments ..... or pets in different colors (with same stats as 'standard' lev bot) .... all that stuff that doesn't really matter to a power-leveller .... ,)

uhm, but on a second thought, i think you didn't *really* talk about that ehehehe ,)

The NT has to put the clans base on fire with a AoE fire dmg program :)

I know people wanted this for missions but I think it would be better with the world like the static quests. Maybe they could do both? Or maybe FC could get their thumb out of their ass and on to the keyboard. Get to work you lazy Funcom people you! :)

The solution for NT is easy just get Jobe out onto the map...

bump

anything that takes focus away from my dark blue skills and puts in on nice green(er) ones I am all for

bump!
