Setsail On Your Adventure - Treasures and Perils Await
Previously
Guys we just added an experience mechanic. There's never been a better time to start playing. You can now earn up to 300 experience points per day! The main setsail command produces 10 experience up to 10 times per day and your role-specific command produces 20 experience per day up to 10 uses per day. This has several benefits:
- It keeps a whale from coming into the game and being about to catch up immediately.
- It incentivizes more playing
- It provides another benefit to early players
- Experience will be required on all future ship upgrades
- leaderboard payouts
- earnings multiplier based on NFT's held ingame
- quests
We just added leaderboard payout rewards. Rewards are paid out based on how many ingame NFT's you hold. The entire top 25 will receive a daily payout. The current payout is 5,000 LOOT coins paid out as follows:
| Position | % Payout | Actual |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 18% | 900 LOOT |
| 2 | 13% | 650 LOOT |
| 3 | 9% | 450 LOOT |
| 4-8 | 5% | 250 LOOT |
| 9-14 | 3% | 150 LOOT |
| 15-20 | 2% | 100 LOOT |
| 21-25 | 1% | 50 LOOT |
Keep in mind, this is just a start. We plan to add chests in leaderboard payouts next. We also plan to be able to increase leaderboard payouts as we add more players. All the hive we've received for signups and LOOT coins bought on hive-engine is currently kept/invested to support the leaderboard rewards. We want them to be sustainable and to increase.
Also we added a !quest command recently and have fixed most all of the bugs. There's thousands of possible outcomes. We also plan to add more outcomes and many other options for answer that will influence the quest.
Here's an example of a quest:
With the bustling port in sight, your pirate crew eagerly anticipates restocking on food and supplies, ready to prepare for their next daring adventure on the high seas.. Do you wish to restock and continue exploring? yes or no?
answer: yes
As your lookout peers through the spyglass, their heart sinks at the sight of an ominous silhouette on the horizon - a rival ship, it’s black flag billowing in the wind. Hostile intent is clear. Do you ready your weapons for a dangerous encounter? Do you attack? Yes or no? Yes
answer: yes
You swiftly board their decks and engage in a fierce battle. Victory is yours and you take a prisoner to work on your ship. Receive 1 NFT. Your quest has ended.
Earnings Multiplier
So every 10 NFT's you hold, you currently earn a 5% bonus with your setsail command as well as your role-specific commands. So 100 ingame NFT's is currently a 50% earnings bonus.
