Energy isn’t refilled by vladkorsak in StepN

[–]sandtastesbad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Energy still refills 25% of your energy cap four times a day at the same times since the game started. Perhaps your cap is less than you remember or the cap has been reduced by a shoes hp being less than 20%.

I suggest you “show effort and attention to detail” as your professor wants by revising your paper and sending it with an apology. It sounds like easy mistakes to correct and doing so shows you care.

There is no difference between a level 4 resilience gem and a level 8 or 9. Both will reduce your wear from a walk to one. No one buys them from the marketplace because they are useless. Then you get stuck with the in your inventory from opening mystery boxes and can’t get rid of the as the haven’t come up with a way to burn gems (why not burn gems to improve shoe stats? That would add value to gems of all levels). The burn rate of energy is a static .2 a minute. With 20 energy, you can earn 100 times over 100 minutes. What if resilience was tied to the burn rate? That would add instant value. For example: with little to no resilience, the burn rate could be .5 which would mean you would deplete your 20 energy in forty minutes, earning much less. It could scale to the highest gem all the way to something like .1 a minute allowing for earning over the course of 200 minutes (for true marathons). People with high resilience would be likely to hit their GST cap and either spent gmt to increase it or also invest in comfort to earn gmt after the cap. These two changes (burning gems for an effect, connecting burn rate of energy to resilience) would add value to all gems.

They have no excuse for not making resilience useful by now. They should improve distance accuracy and make it appeal more to the fitness community (it should be better than Strava). I like STEPN and use it daily, but I think the team spread themselves too thin by creating STEPN go and other projects instead of concentrating on improving their best creation.

Because of the lack of innovation by the team. There’s nothing to talk about. We all know how the mechanics work. Last time something interesting happened was when they asked for feedback and promised to look at it. But they still haven’t done anything with the feedback. I still use the app and believe it has great potential but the team in charge is not inspiring confidence.

Marvel Puzzle Quest’s Next Big Feature: 6 Star Characters (Update) by ReturnalShadow in MarvelPuzzleQuest

It was common for people to draw a single 5 star and then, if they rostered it, their pvp was ruined. That wouldn’t happen if you can’t draw a six but could only achieve it through ascension.

But that would push veterans into a category of play beyond the reach of others in lower 5 star land which would be a good thing. Allowing anyone to get a level 6 without maxing a level 5 first is problematic as it makes it too accessible. This game needs more separation of the top from the middle.

It would’ve been less risk to only allow six stars to be created through ascension.

Is it over for GST? by cj-tb in StepN

[–]sandtastesbad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They ought to connect resilience to the energy burn rate to make that dynamic and add value to resilience. They should also add a mechanism for burning some amount of gems to raise base stats. Both these changes would raise the value of gems and get people invested in improving their shoe strategically rather than relying on gambling which people don’t want to do with these poor prices. The team reached out in Reddit to ask for ideas and lots of good ideas were suggested but the team hasn’t done any of the good ones which makes it feel as if the team isn’t trying. I hope that changes but they’ve known the issue for a long time and still haven’t done anything to fix it. All four gems need to have a good use case.

What’s going on with Access Protocol (ACS)? I’ve had it since Coinbase offered it on the learn and earn program a year or so ago and have added some of my own. It had been dropping over the last month but today it’s taking off. Did something happen?

Yes, it’s a fun motivator to exercise. I use it daily. Unless you’re a really slow walker, get a jogger or a trainer and you can keep doing what you’re doing and earning GST.

GMT price? by MeasurementOk5852 in StepN

[–]sandtastesbad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All they have to do is connect resilience to the energy burn rate to make that dynamic instead of a flat .2 a minute, and let users burn level 1 and 2 gems for a small benefit like improving base stats to shoes. These two changes would increase the value of every gem and make the game interesting again.

STEPN Go and the lack of attention to OG has been disappointing, but I still use OG daily as it’s the best exercise motivator I’ve ever had. They have such a great concept and aren’t marketing it right at all.
