UGC Mission Design

[RetroSteveUK]

In response to the problem of finding decent UGC missions amongst the swathes of remixed templates and ill-conceived, badly constructed missions, I'm working on a website to collect together and present in one place, the best examples of inFamous 2 & Festival of Blood UGC.

UGC Elite Mission Archive:  www.ugcelite.net

Anyone's welcome to suggest additions to this archive (see the note in red below) but at the moment I'm reserving final judgement on which ones get included.  Successful missions don't have to be world changing or even particularly original, but missions that make the grade will generally live up to the following expectations:

Presentation & attention to detail.  It should have that elusive 'pro polished' feel to it.
Good grammar. Spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, etc..
Plot / Story / Meaning.  Whether it's a basic battle or a narrative, it's needs to have a point.
Well balanced.  Not too repetitive or unnecessarily drawn out.
Not too difficult.  Challenging, yes, but not so hard it makes the player want to quit.

Ultimately, if a creator has obviously put in the effort, and the mission is entertaining and worth recommending to others, it's worth considering for the archive.

Any suggestions for the archive, please post them on the dedicated thread on the Sucker Punch forums, which is more frequently visited by the regular UGC enthusiasts.

Hey, thanks for the archive, I can totally understand finding UGC missions that are totally randomized and not worth most peoples time playing, I'll give it a go. About the Sucker Punch forums I haven't even tried it before, I took a quick peek and it seems it's quite active, so it's probably best if I become an active member there too, but anyways thanks for the message.
