Title News for Player Segments

Hi,

We would like the ability to associate one or more player segments with each Title News. This would allow the game to show more targetted news articles to different types of player. For example, players who have joined in the last 2 weeks might be shown tutorial information in their news feed, whilst veteran players who have been active in the game for more than 3 months might be shown more complex hints and tips on play strategies.

The value in this feature would be increase player retention through more focussed messaging. A newbie doesn't want to see complex and detailed information about the new weapon that you just released, but they do want to see some starter hints and tips, for example.

Details:

The dashboard would have the ability to select zero or more player segments to link to each news item. It would also help if you could filter the news articles in the dashboard, though not be essential.

The client would have the ability to query News articles with filters such as:

- All news - Return all news articles, regardless of segment.

- My segments - Return only news articles that are associated with segments the player belongs to.

- No segments - Return only news articles that have no segment set.

Thanks

Graham

(Workaround) This can currently be accomplished by including segment identifiers in the news body as Json. The client would then be in charge of filtering the news articles by interpreting the JSON body and showing the content if the segment matched. An example JSON body might be:

{

"segment": "Whales",

"content": "News article content for the whales segment"

}
