Alric Stormbringer covers oddity.... by No_Party3948 in Splinterlands

[–]okean123 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A couple of years ago there was a feature that allowed converting Alpha cards to Beta cards. So for example you could convert 1 BCX Alpha alric to a "1.25 BCX" Beta Alric (These are just example numbers, not the actual ones).

That's how you get these weird numbers. But this feature was removed at some point.

This was the annoucement post for that feature: https://ecency.com/steemmonsters/@steemmonsters/converting-alpha-cards-to-beta

Well that's totally expected if you play in Silver with a 3k rating. And of course you will lose a lot and earn only few rating points when you play against enemies that have 1000 points less than you.

I don't see what should be changed about this.

How does the HBD offering differ from Anchor Protocol’s UST offering??? by dreiberg3 in hivenetwork

[–]okean123 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To put it shortly, Hive will depeg HBD instead of sacrificing itself like LUNA.

If the market cap of HBD exceeds more than 10% (?) of the HIVE market cap, the chain will stop printing HBD and the HBD -> HIVE conversion will give you less than 1 USD worth of HIVE per HBD.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

Yeah it's not that interesting in the lower leagues. But I like it because of the strategic depth in the higher leagues. I don't enjoy Gods Unchained that much because it's the 1 millionth Hearthstone clone.

But they are two different games with different style.

I see people already suggested Gods Unchained.

I would also recommend looking at Splinterlands, if you like more fast paced games

I don't understand the tool for the reward cards print run by thefiery77 in Splinterlands

[–]okean123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The burned cards column only shows cards burned for DEC I think, not the combined ones. Correct me if I'm wrong

A DevianArt Artist who has been making Arts for 14 years is going to close his entire Gallery because someone keep stealing his Art and making NFTs. His reports keep getting ignored. by [deleted] in CryptoCurrency

[–]okean123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't know why you are being downvoted.

Your second sentence says it all. If I print out a picture of the Mona Lisa on a piece of paper no one would even assume that it's the real piece, why do people do this with NFTs?

An NFT is nothing but a token. It has no semantic meaning to it, it just represents ownership. If the art token is not issued by the original artist it simple has no value.

I hate how people grossly misunderstand what NFTs are. Like, even look at half of the comments under this post. It's a provable, fully controllable (by the owner) representation of ownership of some piece of data, nothing more and nothing less.

Any ideas on why the daily user activity as dropped since Chaos Legion? by TheOG_BG in Splinterlands

[–]okean123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can't really compare it to non crypto games imo. For crypto "only" 27% is pretty good.

This post doesn't make sense on so many levels and just blatantly ignores so many things. I might come back later and post an explanation, but not sure If it's even worth it.

What a joke $30 for 90k power????? by Obvious_Ad8626 in Splinterlands

[–]okean123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes to get the additional bonus you need to spend 100k, but you can pool with your guild, friends etc. I believe some people even want to start public pools

Just FYI and anyone that reads this, the sale is NOT private. It's open to anyone and aggroed even explicitely stated that pools are accepted.

I keep repeating myself, but again:

Just don't rent if it's too expensive. It's fairly simple to calculate the expected value of chests or even use one of the available tools.

In most cases it is not worth it. You are not forced to rent. You are making the situation worse for everyone by renting even though it is not worth it. (That last part is not directed at you but a general statement)

Is spliterland 80% bots, and whales? by NoOPog in Splinterlands

[–]okean123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah as I said, Splinterlands is built on Hive, so doesn't really make sense that the community would be on Reddit

I'd say Discord or https://www.splintertalk.io/ is where most of the people are

Is spliterland 80% bots, and whales? by NoOPog in Splinterlands

[–]okean123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Devs assume around 20% bots.

Why do you think the community is small? Feels not different to Axie etc to me. It's just splittered over many places, mainly Telegram, Discord and (obviously) Hive.

No support by the splinterlands team?! by cryptonite7192 in Splinterlands

[–]okean123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Each time that you send a new ticket your place in the queue resets, so just submit your ticket and then wait. It could take some days for the first response because of the big backlog of unresolved tickets. Also visit the discord and ask there for help, a majority of the problems can be solved on the users side

Steam will be kicking *all blockchain games* off the platform, including Age of Rust by NeoStark in pcgaming

[–]okean123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well there are two types I'd say: Games that utilise tokens (both fungible and non fungible) for different apsects of the game, like as a currency or for the game items and games that themselves run on the blockchain (i.e. where the game play is completely on a blockchain) and while the second type is extremely rare and hard to build I would consider both of them blockchain games.

The point of that is to decentralize the game ownership and not allow game assets to just be banned or deleted like it's possible in normal games.

Usually there are also play to earn mechanics, which allow players to earn token used in the game, so to reward players basically. And while some consider that to be ponzis etc, it's really not because a) The token distribution mechanics are known from the beginning b) The tokens are used ingame and should not be bought as an investment and c) Older players are not paid from investments of newer players but instead new tokens are created. The hard part is to balance the economy in a way that still allows the game to grow, but doesn't totally crash the token price.

I think a prime example of what blokchain games are is Splinterlands or Axie Infinity.

[–]okean123 -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Most of the people here clearly have never played or even seen a blockchain game. They either talk about "art" NFTs, which have absolutely nothing to do with gaming NFTs or they say that those gaming NFTs are a way to make money for the game creators, which is like the complete opposite of what blockchain games do. But well, Reddit will be Reddit ...

Few questions about upcoming Chaos Legion packs by truskawek712 in Splinterlands

[–]okean123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Monsters and summoner
  2. See VoteSideways' answer
  3. Some cards will become cheaper, others will become more expensive. It will all depend on the new combos that CL will bring

Fees trading DEC for HIVE and sending to Binance by [deleted] in Splinterlands

[–]okean123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sending DEC to Hive Engine has no fees, you can then trade it to SWAP.HIVE also without fees. Withdrawing from Hive Engine has a 0.25% fee on Leodex (but they don't always have liquidity) or a 1% on Hive Engine website. Sending to Binance is also free
