My apologies if this has been mentioned before. I ran several searches of the forum and came up empty, so here goes:
I was playing around with the Architect Edition mission interface the other day. I ran a couple of different searches based on my character's level and the length of the mission arc I preferred to tackle. That was when it struck me that a lot of popular missions keep being run over and over again simply because they get preference in the search engine, not necessarily because they are exceptional or unique. Granted, many of them are, and I ran many of the top-rated, dev choice, and such missions.
After awhile what I really wanted was some way to find the hidden gems that get buried, especially those missions that people spend days working on and are desperate to hear some kind of feedback about but their mission never gets run because people like me never find it.
So, we need some easy way to search the available missions on the basis of the mission status as assigned by the author:
Work in progress
Looking for feedback
Final
Either link the status to the key word function or add an additional drop-down box linked to the mission status. It might even be possible to add status links to the two available drop-down boxes. Better yet, perhaps this search functionality is already in place and I just don't know how to access it. If so, please reply here with a quick explanation.
AE Story Arc #536752: Torn Asunder
An army from far, far away has been driven from their homeland and landed on Earth. They desperately need a new home and they're liking the look of ours.
