Current Trial
We all know Contracts Mode hasn’t been updated since 2017 and there are no signs of that changing anytime soon (tho I pray to IO every night ). So you can view this as an outlet for people to make and play more adventurous ‘contracts’. Plus everyone loves a good competition So I’m reviving this old chestnut, but sweetening the pot with a greater prize: €30 for the highest scorer and €10 to a random person who submits a run, so everyone at least has an incentive to try. At the end of the day tho, I just want as many people to have fun with these as possible.
What are Community Trials?
Community Trials was a concept I came up with back in 2019 and did a sort of trial run with. The easiest way to think of them is the community creating the final level of an escalation. So one mission (or trial if you will) with niche objectives that are level specific and can add a bit more variety and challenge then what we usually get in standard contracts.
The reason they’re called Community is because obviously they’re for the community, but also I don’t wanna be trying to think of new ideas every week. I want other creators and members of the community to be able to show off their ideas.
Rules for Entry:
You must submit within the specified time frame (the dates given will be until 23:59 UTC)
You must follow all the objectives and complications of the given trial (trying to follow the commonly understood meaning of each)
You must have a video of your entire run, including the end screen with the score on it. This is so your score can be checked if asked for
You must announce your score before the deadline. Either on this thread or in a DM if you’d prefer. These will be used to find winners of the prizes (given an eligible run)
Use of glitches (such as tranq glitch) should be avoided and it is up to the discretion of judges if it will invalidate at run. So be careful/sensible
Prizes:
The run of the trial with the highest score will win 30 Euros
A random competitor with a valid run will also be selected to win 10 Euros
I think this is awesome! Huge kudos to @TheContractor for funding and doing the background work for something that brings the community into a friendly competition.
Friendly competition plus hopefully letting some people flex more creative contract ideas. Well thanks all for the interest but I do expect runs from you all now
I’ll be funding the prizes for the foreseeable future but hopefully it’ll be different creators of the trials each time (if enough people are interested). For example, the next one has already been made by the wonderful @Khakiasp
Do users keep their score hidden until the deadline and just announce they have set a valid score?
That way anyone who feels comfortable with their run could chip in for example 2 euros to the prize money. The grand prize would wary each time but it wouldnt have to paid by you alone.
Great initiative and fun contract! I’ve been looking for a good opportunity to use that pistol. First time participating in one of these, so here’s my submission for the PC recreation.
Just to make sure: any disguise, any kill method, except for Derek which has the pistol or robot kill condition.
I went for no pacifications at all just to be sure.
