Next Expansion Idea: BOb's Great Hen Hen Heist!
Posted: Wed Jul 03, 2019 11:05 pm
Forewarning: I have zero knowledge of coding, so I have no clue how plausible any of this is.
So far in slime rancher, each expansion has involved one of our trade partners employing Beatrix to assist in acquiring something relevant to their trades in the ranch exchange.
Odgen wants kookadoba fruit
Mochi wants Quicksilver plorts
Viktor wants glitch slimes
The only other trade partners are Thora West (who has no specific trade themes) and Bob who always wants chickens.
My idea for the next expansion is Bob contacts you about helping him get BiG YumMy... Chikknns!!!!
You can access his expansion through a teleporter in the grotto on your ranch and when you step through you are in a sort of poorly constructed hideout in a cave. There is wooden flooring here and there with some other poorly crafted architecture. You can see Bob's computer with a search page on chickens. His trench coat, hat, and scarf on a coat rack. There are splatters of pink slime everywhere.
Next to a whiteboard with a crudely drawn heist plan is a range exchange. When you access it, you are informed of a large farm/factory owned by the Miles family (probably) This facility can produce the biggest and most delicious hen hens in the Galaxy! You are tasked with sneaking in and stealing as many of these chickens as you can. When you take the teleporter into the facility, you spawn randomly in a small back room such as a broom closet or bathroom. You must then sneak around the area, solving puzzles using your vacpack & different items/slimes in the area and avoiding security to access the Roostro Repository, where your feathery prize is held. Once the vault opens, the alarm goes off and you have a limited amount of time to get your haul to various pink slimes around the map to get them out.
Once you finish and return to the hideout, you will receive feathers based on how many chickens you got. You give these to Bob as proof of success.
With each expansion, there are three tiers of rewards:
Ogden: Special Fertilizer, Deluxe Garden, Retreat Access
Mochi: Mochi's Extra Mile, Deluxe Coop, Manor Access
Viktor: Chicken Cloner, Advanced Drone, Lab Access
As well as little rewards you can continuously receive:
Ogden: Spicy Tofu
Mochi: 200 Munny
Viktor: Manifold Cubes
My idea for Bob's rewards are items that make free range ranching much more feasible.
Anti-Tarr Pin: An accessory that when worn by a largo slime, prevents it from eating any plorts ( unless it becomes very agitated). To craft the pod for this recipe, the player will need items from each of the other expansions (manifold cubes, saber plorts, etc.) and the rarer resources found in the far, far range.
The stable: A new plot the player can construct. It is similar to the corral, except slimes can come and go. It still possess the auto feeder and music box, but it also has a new upgrade. You can add a soft synth-hay bed, this upgrade makes it so slimes stay in the stables at night/day (depending on the players preferences) so there is some time where the player can maintain things with out the slimes' interference.
The third upgrade is access to Bob's hideout. This gives the player 5 new plots. In the new area there are open crates in a few spots where various hen hens can spawn from.
As for the continuous reward, you will receive colored slime blobs which you can shoot at any surface to give it a bit of color and also make it adhesive (like the nets in the docks and the cacti)
Well, I believe that is all I have to offer in terms of ideas for the next expansion. Hope y'all like it!
See you 'round the Far, Far Range!
