Brainstorm: ways to gather experience points?

[Maxstate]

We need some original ways to allow people to gather experience points. Simple fragging is just not going to cut it in the 21st century.

There should be some kind of help system; if you help your teammate(s) in a situation where they would appreciate this, for example saving their live(s) in the process, it should be worthy of a reward.

I know this system is possible. Does anyone have ideas pertaining to it; or does someone have totally different ideas?

a question, what exactly do you want to do with the experience points? didn't you say the skills were to be advanced like in oblivion

[Maxstate]

skill categories arent skills

how exactly would you learn to do a new skill by using just one of them ;o

- Give players XP or an XP bonus for sticking together. Maybe the plot could reflect the need for teamwork in some way.
