Purpose: My purpose for this instruction set is to guide the readers on how to become a successful Halo 3 player at the highest level possible. I intend on these instructions showing readers tips and certain tricks that no other Halo 3 guide has shown them before, in order to make them an expert at the game.
Audience: The audience for this particular instruction set is much different then the set for beginners. For this set, the intended audience is experienced Halo 3 online players that have a desire to become the most successful player that they can possibly be. These players can be male or female, and should at least be around the age of 18, so that they can fully comprehend all of the instructions.
Context: Although the audience is different for this set of instructions, they will still encounter these instructions online while in their homes or a gaming cafe, more than likely.
Strategies: Strategies for these instructions would include presenting information that the reader has never seen before, otherwise readers would deem this as any typical instruction set that they have seen before. Presenting new information with graphical aid would entice the reader into learning new ideals on how to become a more successful player. If some of the information are tips and tricks that the reader has likely seen before, I intend on putting a new twist on them to make them more interesting.
Medium: Like with the beginner audience, I feel like this instruction set would be most useful to people if it were to be available online on some sort of website. Usually, people needing help with a game go to google or some sort of search engine to discover what they are looking for. It makes sense to make a useful guide with what they are looking for available to them online.
Arrangement: I plan to get straight to the important information with this instruction set. I will begin by talking about how every expert player knows all of the maps and call out locations. I will give some examples of this, but the reader should be able to do research on certain topics specifically, like the call outs, and learn them on their own. I will then move into more advanced topics to instruct the reader on how to become the best Halo 3 player possible.
Testing: To test out my information, I intend on offering my instruction set to friends that already play the game, and see how it helps them. I will also test out some of the information myself, to see if it makes sense, and find out if the steps build on each other like I would like for them to.
Haloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
The arrangement section is covered most thoroughly. You seem to have a lot of the advanced tactics needed to be a pro halo player ready.
The context section is missing a little bit. Why are they bothering to look up these instructions? Are they frustrated at this point? They're apparently not beginners, but they aren't extremely successful players or they wouldn't need these tips.
This istruction set directly relates to mine. They're both game related and they have similar audiences in respect to the experienced/novice player separation.
What if this was targeted to an audience of players that were pro halo 1 and 2 players but didn't have a lot of experience with Halo 3?
Halo-response
The purpose is a very strong element in this design plan. It explains exactly what the instructions intend to do and what audience they will target.
All of the elements were clearly presented. The arrangement could maybe be more organized. But overall, they were very well done.
The instructions are very clear and well planned, which is what I am to do with mine.
If the medium were changed and these instructions came with the game it would likely create a larger audience. However, since these instructions target expert Halo players that choice may not be beneficial to first time players.
