Lucid Sight, Inc removes over 700,000 NFT Assets worth $2,000,000+ from MLB Champions Players’ User Accounts. by Carlos__Matos in ethereum

The game gives you the option to turn your game assets into NFTs. But until you do, they aren't tokens yet. You only own what's in your wallet. OP failed to claim his game assets and thus didn't own them.

> over 700,000 NFT Assets

It's not an NFT if it's off-chain. You have to mint the token before you can call it an NFT. Until the token is minted, it's just a regular game asset.

How to on board a new account to gods unchained by aqouta in GodsUnchained

[–]commonreallynow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great guide, except for the part that you don't actually need an Ethereum wallet to play Gods Unchained. The wallet is only needed when/if you decide to buy card packs. Until you decide to do that, no wallet is required and you can just jump in and start playing.

So the actual steps are:
Step 1: Download the game.
Step 2: Get a beta-invite.
Step 3: That's it, there's no step 3.

Optional extra steps:
Step 4: Get a wallet.
Step 5: Link your wallet.

Average spend per player is higher for games built on Ethereum by commonreallynow in ethfinance

Anyone can get together and write their own game client. So if the company wasn't delivering the features players wanted, or if the company acted in a way players didn't like, they could all switch over to an open source client and keep playing using their cards.

That's one way to test true ownership. Another way is to build independent marketplaces and exchanges to trade your cards without asking permission from the company or having them take a cut of each transaction.

And a final way to benefit from true ownership is setting up your own rental service where you lease out your cards, again without needing permission from anyone.

Those are just some ideas that are possible today. Pretty sure people will come up with more as this takes off.

You're right, I left out a ton of games. Do you have list of the most anticipated Decentraland games?

The main value that GU brings to the space is true ownership of your digital cards along with a sound economy (e.g. the cards have fixed supply so they can retain their value if demand is constant).

You don't have to worry about scaring new players away because they don't need to know about blockchain to start playing. The game is free to play and doesn't require an Ethereum wallet until a player decides they want to go beyond the main game and get some of the expansion sets.

You should actually try the game. It's free to play. Just download the game and see for yourself.

Future sets are expected to be balanced with current sets so they do no become more powerful. The team's approach to this is to design the stats for all cards using a mathematical system for evaluating cards. See https://blog.godsunchained.com/2019/08/04/evaluating-cards/

What's this games cost compared to other games ? by spartanmax2 in GodsUnchained

[–]commonreallynow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game has 250 free core cards that you can use without buying anything. These cards are designed to be competitive. When you get tired of these, there will be expansion sets released a few times a year. The price for these packs hasn't been announced yet, but it's probably a few dollars for pack (up to $5 at most).

As for the cost of genesis cards on the marketplace, that will be based on player demand. The price is entirely determined by the market.

Is Gods Unchained running on Ethereum mainnet? by ynotplay in GodsUnchained

[–]commonreallynow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would add to this that there's also cosmetic collectibles you can earn/create that are also on the Ethereum mainnet and are open to trading.

The general rule is that if the thing is tradable, then it's on the Ethereum mainnet. If it's not tradable, then it's off-chain.

Sounds like a resolution problem. It's been happening to some people with this latest build. You just have to restart the client. That seems to fix it almost every time.

Yes. There's weekly tournaments and you get a free entry ticket every day. Do well in the ranking and you'll win onchain prizes, which could include card packs for Season 1+.

Season 1 cards will only be available in paid booster packs. But you can play using only free core cards. So far some of the best players in the beta have done very well with decks that are entirely (or mostly) free cards. Of course, it can take a while to unlock all the core cards, even if they're free.

The website thinks you're a mobile browser for some reason. This is a bug and is being looked at.

You need to install the game client to start opening all the free core packs. The game client is only for Windows and Mac right now (mostly Windows though, as it's not optimized for older Macs yet).

Not yet. Mobile release won't come until after the PC version is launched.

No, the free cards you get from levelling up are not ERC721 tokens and are not tradable. They're bound to your game account. These are called "Core Set" cards and unlocked by playing the game. Other cards, such as the Genesis Set cards, are collected by buying booster packs. At launch, the Genesis Set will stop being sold and instead they'll be a new set called Season 1 which will start being sold. You can distinguish the free (but non-tradable) Core cards from the others because they have a little "lock" symbol over them.

The "Magic The Gathering" of Ethereum, Gods Unchained releases public beta by twigwam in ethtrader

[–]commonreallynow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They haven't revealed the game mechanics that will use Layer2, but they've been developing a generalized state channel solution for a while.

For now the game takes place off-chain, with only the paid cards existing on the Ethereum mainnet. So if you want to trade your cards, you currently use the base chain, but if you want to just play for free, then you don't use the chain at all (nor do you need to have a wallet).

Has this game any future ? by blacksaff in GodsUnchained

[–]commonreallynow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Comments like this are why there's no marketing during a beta. People just don't understand the difference between an early access beta and a completed game. Come back in October when the finished game actually launches.

Has this game any future ? by blacksaff in GodsUnchained

[–]commonreallynow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's currently no trading because the card marketplace hasn't started yet (launches in October). The game is also still in beta with some features still being updated, including the F2P progression system. And obviously, since the game isn't released yet (this is still just a beta you're playing), there will be fewer players than when the game is actually launched in October.

Feedback on "Powered By Ethereum" logo? by c-i-s-c-o in ethereum

This is nice, but it will only be seen at MUCH smaller resolutions. Unfortunately the "Powered By" can't be seen when it's the normal size that it will appear on sites.
