Add a Guild Title for "Guild Factional Ace"

Add a Guild Title for "Guild Factional Ace"
This idea/suggestion is Open. You can respond to ask questions or discuss the idea and either vote it up or down if you believe it should or should not be implemented, respectively. Popular suggestions and ideas will be considered by the development team to become reality in-game.
Proposal
Create a Guild Factional Ace title to align with a guild member that completes the 3 factional squadrons.
Justification
Kind of need something in-between Guild Ace and Guild Pilot Leader.
Motivation
Guild Pilot Leader is the highest title. I think this aligns best with AoA.
Guild Ace is not really acknowledging the time and effort of competing 3 factional squadrons.
There are three Guild Titles for pilot:

Titles: Applied when:
Guild Pilot Guild member starts grinding space.
Guild Ace When Guild member gets first Ace.
Guild Pilot Leader When a Guild pilot completes AoA.

I think it would be nice to have a Guild title that matches when someone is a Factional Ace.

You say "Titles applied when: " and list game accomplishments.
I'm just pointing out titles are applied when a guild leader feels like it.
 
I’m not sure how we would do this without a decently complicated modification to evaluate other conditionals when assigning guild titles.

Thanks Aconite. I was throwing it out there. Hoping it was easy but knowing it may not be.

Thank you for the reply.

I was hoping that the "Guild Factional Ace" could be added to the list so a Guild leader can award the title to a fellow guild member when the complete all 3 squadrons of any faction. Just like the other 3 titles. But it does not sound possible based on what Aconite said.

There is actually a 4th title ... Guild Admiral .... This sounds more like a role playing title where an individual is the leader of a groups of pilots.

If what Savaac is saying is correct, and guild leaders can just assign these whenever, then I don't understand the difficulty in just adding another title in a drop down list.

The way I'm interpreting Aconite's response is that he believes there is some in game condition/pre-requisite before these titles become available in that drop down list. If that isn't the case, it may just be a disconnect - and then to me it seems pretty straight forward.

Can you provide some clarification? For example - Does someone actually need to be a Pilot Ace for their guild leader to assign them that Guild Ace title? Or in theory could it be assigned to someone who isn't an Ace?
 
Adding more guild titles is worth a PV.
Adding a profession check, or having titles added automatically, without a guild leader assignment is what Aco is saying would be a new avenue of coding.
 
I am not saying to create something that gets triggered by someone completing a box.

I am suggesting exactly what Philmor stated. Just add "Guild Factional Ace" to the list of Guild titles that can be given by a a Guild Leader.

I thought I was clear when I mentioned "Guild Ace, Guild Pilot, Guild Pilot Leader". I am in agreement with Philmor that I "thought" it would be as simple as adding another title to a drop down list.

But I do not want to assume it would be either.
 
So change the PV to just adding more titles, and no mention of those receiving titles needing to have "earned" them.

Not sure what you are saying, but regarding your statement, "no mention of those receiving titles needing to have "earned" them".

Most people in the Guild knows when someone is grinding space. Most people get help when they are doing the two Ace missions from Adm, Burke. And .... there is also collections that will indicate what they have and have not accomplished.
 
I'm the leader of my guild, though I wasn't always. I do hand out titles to people I feel have "earned" them, but it is totally my decision. I can hand out "Guild Admiral" to someone who has never been in space, if I feel like it.

Aco has already told you adding a profession check to guild titles is a no go. So change your PV to not have profession requirements, or even suggestions. (well, suggest all you want, but...)

Adding 3 new guild titles could happen. Putting restrictions on who can receive them, won't happen. It will be up to the guild leaders.

Everything I can see is that the OP isn't looking for any sort of in game requirement. It's not a big deal. I'll see if we can get another title added to the list. Too much conversation for an easy ask.
