It would be great if you could implement a social newsfeed in-world so players can share updates (achievements, milestones, announcements etc.) with their friends. I am imagining it to be similar to LinkedIn where you get the option to share an update once there is some change to your avatar or account. It would be a fun way to see what your friends are up to and it would help create a little exposure for missions and shops
These updates:
- contain preset text by SV that is not editable by the player so there is no need for moderation
- are only published if the player clicks to confirm the share when the prompt is displayed
- are only visible to mutual friends when viewed from in your profile
- show up on their friends' live newsfeed among other players' updates
- can be reacted to (thumbs up, applause, cheer, love) by your friends only
- cannot be commented on because that would require moderation
- can be disabled by the player if they do not want to receive prompts
