As some of you may know, calling me a HUGE Big Brother (us) fan is a bit of an understatement. I consider myself a Professional. And I was first extremely excited when I googled "big brother online game" and Tengaged popped up. After playing the first 2 games, the only ones open for me at the time, My excitement dimmed. The current games can use some improving in my opinion.
FASTING :
I've played 1 fast casting game. It was fun at first, not knowing what I was getting into. But swiftly became easy and boring. I don't ever plan on playing another. the strategy is there. although very linear but its something. It just needs a little work.
-PROBLEMS-
1. Inactives
In theory this game would be very fun but the number 1 problem I see is that at any given time 70%-90% of the cast is inactive. Waiting 3 hours to finish a game with 4 active players in it is not anyone's idea of fun.
Possible Fixes :
-Kicking inacts after a certain amount of time ( after the 1st or second vote they miss )
-Locking Inactives votes , Lets say someone misses the first vote ( or 2nd ). after which they can no longer vote and they lose their timers. In theory they can still come back and win, they just never get a vote.
-TWISTs , Maybe a random double POV or Double Eviction. Maybe not even every game, but every once and awhile through-out the days games.
2. POV
A randomly determined POV is kinda boring and doesn't promote competitive play, Which is a huge part of having a successful online game. I understand the game is suppose to be simple. But a little math problem or Trivia question wouldn't be very hard. fastest right answer wins.
3. The way the Final 3 placement is determined.
As I said before leaving things like this to random isn't cool. Especially since this game is all about strategy and the best player should in theory win the game. a vote of some sort would be an easy fix.
4. PRIZES
The prizes are straight up lame. and I think 1-5 should all get a little something.
More Ts for the people that dont get first is a MUST.
