| Summary | 0014449: AIs to blackmail or to bribe player | ||||
| Description | AIs should be able to blackmail or bribe the player. Quest pop-ups right now is limited to pre-spacefaring, so after everyone's in space then you won't receive any more quests. I argue it could be used for other purposes which should have impact on the state of the game, for example: 1. Acutians offering credit for you to raid tech or armada of Andors (bribe) 2. Burlusts offering leverage with primary warlord if you sabotage the space elevator of Skylaxians (bribe) 3. Evucks threatening to reveal your informant/spy in Peltian's planet and give considerable influence hit (like -20), unless if you pay credits (blackmail) 4. Thoraxian demanding your outpost or tech, or they'll give themselves negative (like -30) opinion on all races, which may trigger war or hamper your Federation effort (blackmail) 5. An rogue Acutians under one of the CEOs has run away with a planetcracker or toxic waste dump, its location is unknown but to one of the CEO, who will arrest the wannabe-terrorist but for a price... (blackmail) | ||||

Having Quests where the AI tries to blackmail or bribe player would be interesting. |

I think this sounds interesting, and would shake things up a bit. I thought some of these sorts of quests / options could be triggered by standard actions so I've connected this to 14301. |

|
I like anything that gives the player a more meaningful role in the world around! And more quests is a ++ in my opinion! |

I like this, as well. It would have to be tailored to pop more likely for a manipulative and/or evil race, though circumstances could presumably make it come from any quarter. It could also be geared in part to acquisition: Race A sees you've acquired Technology B while researching with Race C. Race A either threatens to lower their view of you, etc, or give you something for it. Or even both, at the same time. And of course, what they'd want would vary according to their longterm preferences, and immediate needs. A race very unsuited to their planet might want a technology that deals with this, though again, that would differ with race; one might want a building that cleans the atmosphere, while another wants a bigger weapon to wipe out the race on another planet better suited to their needs. All sorts of permutations. |
