lol seems someone bought 447 SHOPKEEPERCD  it seems he really want to KEEP the SHOP

What was important for me in video was the date. So far only date i knew was April and we are in middle of May, so was a bit late to tell the new date when game will start.  If it will not be to hard, would be nice if someone goes thru all webpages, blogs, ... and edit spring or April 2016 with September 2016.  Or better, made new roadmap and place it on visible spots everywhere.

The April date was for Milestone #4

Quote
#4 - April 2016 (release 25% of funds raised)

Final development of the game with over 100 game levels and 150+ cards. With the ability for players to play in groups (guilds), to create their own levels, characters as digital asset, and also trade them.

So that is gone to the end of this month according to the video. 1 month delay ain't bad considering other projects in the space.

However, I agree a roadmap for things to come after Milestone #4 would be good to have.

Looks like programer works only on Monday. Bugs are starting getting fixed Tongue

They work office hours, Monday to Friday. And there was a bank holiday last week in Switzerland.

Is there anyone on the official forums?  Asked a few questions over a day ago and mine was the last post.

This forum looks to be a little active maybe someone can answer here?

In the blog post it talks about assets such as Iron you can get in game while playing.
 
Couple of questions.
 
1. Is it in game right now?
 
2. Can it be any SOG asset card in your wallet address or just certain ones that trigger the extra loot?
 
3. I assume they are triggered through regular game play and not the "  Infinity " waves?
 
4. Any additional information would be great as there is not documentation on the topic.

They aren't in-game right now, the first asset COAL was given with another card at the SoG store.
Eventually they should be given also for owning an ASSET like a specific card or some achievement, etc.
I think all the options are currently being worked on and defined.

The team will know better.

i know its a beta.

But upgrading Cards = better stats.
seems pretty basic stuff to me.

Some of the Card Upgrades are  simply broken af atm.
Seems like the Level of professionalism went down overall lately.

Why ?

I just started and saw potential... but like you I really am holding back making any investments when basics like upgrading cards are not checked to have correct stats.

Just gives me pause is all, yes I understand it is beta..  That is why I am investing very little for now.  As they clear things up will reconsider putting more btc in.

Thing is there are many ways to support a project, buying BCY it's not investing in SoG or EDS, it's one's own speculative hopes.
However SoG can be supported by playing the game and introducing new people to it, talking about it, testing the beta and providing feedback, buying, selling, swapping cards and decks.
Like finishing the new Infinite level that was just added to the game... Maaan I really want to finish that, but hard and strategic, it shows how much I'm hooked into it already LOL

Can't wait to see tournaments kick off... With BCY prizes! Smiley

Hi!,

Thank y for vfaucet.com. Also thank y for the regular tokens. Could you however check the claim tab? Sometimes the amount is lesser than due even when all three are used together.

Thank y

Spells of Genesis is not involved with vfaucet.com as far as i'm aware. You need to contact the site directly.
1826  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Spells of Genesis - Innovating the Game Economy with BitCrystals (BCY) on: May 08, 2016, 04:14:52 AM
Yes............it is about time the investors at least get a little bit of a light shone on some type of roadmap AT LEAST.  I have no doubts on Spells of Genesis' success.  However, it would be nice to hear a least a little bit of something else besides "New card up for sale!!"  EDS please give the investors some vote of confidence on what you are doing please.  Thank you.

Cards are part of the ecosystem, there are quite a few third party card resellers (Partners) and there is a good market already supporting SoG assets.
Maybe you have missed it above, there are news of a partnership with All4Games part of the UK's Channel4 group.
From what Yodark mentioned on Slack they are reviewing the contract so that should bring a bit of fun to the party, once it all comes together.

Game development is progressing, have you played it yet? Getting more fun to play at each Testing Season, we are at #5, and you get a little reward for it out of the 20K BCY pot.
Of course there are bugs but within each testing season they get all straightened out, the game works, you get your cards in the game, you get even free cards by playing, you can fuse them, level them up...
More and more assets are being added to the gameplay and IMO from when it all started, last year, SoG is so much better off than many other projects.
You also have added strategy to consider when playing the game with all the different cards, and powers, spells, etc and the many levels.
And this is just before it even hits the Apple and Play stores. Hope they are not too far away from that, so looking forward to it.

Why ?

See above + The team is as professional as ever, they are busy and work office hours, I can't see where the lack of professionalism is.
Game is progressing at a good pace, a bug here and there but they get fixed swiftly.
They are in the midst of hitting the final milestone #4 I believe. The team can digress on that further.



There will always be bugs in new projects that are still in beta. But it would be really great if the team could get someone with experience, say, someone who has worked at Wizards.

I think the team appreciates the suggestion, however they have developers and designers onboard and are doing a great job IMO.
But if you come across someone of "that caliber" feel free to tell em all about SoG and put them on the right track. Smiley

Hello are the rewards for beta season 4 been distributed? Where can we see the leaderboard with the points and equivalent of bitcrystals rewards?

Rewards have already been distributed and no there is no calculation to show how much each person gets. However you should have received what you were expected to receive based on your points.

I think EDS should offer custom made physical cards with your public key to your digital card hologrammed on the card. The card would be fun to own, obviously only interesting while you own it because the public key is useless to anyone else. However, imagine you have a physical game that is paired with the digital game, and before you played your deck it is digitialy scanned for all public keys to verify cards indeed carry the balance of a satoshi card for example.

I think this would be something that i would purchase!

It is something I heard being discussed previously. I personally would love some of the cards be printed too, I don't exclude maybe that could happen in the future.
Maybe some of the best cards or for new promotions. It'll be hard for EDS to print them with everyone's public key but if there could be an online tool to allow SoG users to do that themselves, then order a print that could be interesting. I would actually pay for the service. Smiley
1831  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Spells of Genesis - Innovating the Game Economy with BitCrystals (BCY) on: April 28, 2016, 08:03:37 PM

I have bought a handful of these type of cards because i like to collect stuff. But frankly I don't get how this will work long term...... a baseball card or Magic card has value because it has a tangible use, minimally you can look at it at geek over your ownership..... not sure how that translates to a digital currency, how does one gain utility by owning these cards.

Cards will have value only if game exist.  so that bring us again to centralized system.  In theory, even is EDS turn off electricity, Card owners can make new game, or make other game beside this one.  But without any game at all, cards will have, not no value, but a tiny value.

Actually, there is a time when cards will have no value, and that is when counterparty stop to exist.

I am not feeling any better from your post. I don't even see how a $1000 card has value in a game. do the most valuable magic cards get used in games?

as for counterparty, seems some clever engineer can figure out how to connect that asset to another.

All SoG cards are collectible items, even if the game disappears (which I hope it won't) they can be used in other games if anyone wants to. Yodark has mentioned this before.
The other good thing about SoG cards is that they don't get damaged with use like MTG physical cards so you don't have to worry about treating them well, keep them in plastic wrappers, etc.
Even if Counterparty disappears there is still a record in Bitcoin's op_return about your cards so they will always be there. And the way Counterparty works once you set a number of units for a certain asset that can't be modified so you are guaranteed by math if a card is rare it'll always be and cannot be counterfeit.

As players of SoG keep growing there will be more demand for cards and there are loads of collectors out there who are into trading cards so over time the value of some cards should increase. Surely EDS expects to have a good number of players once the game launches and thereafter, imagine 100,000 players (which is not such a big number for games) that want a card that has only 1000 units, or 700, or 300, or 200. What will happen with demand then? Do you think some people would want to get a full deck? How much will they be willing to pay for a Satoshi card?

The easiness on which you can trade SoG cards is also much better than physical cards, I see that as another advantage together with proving their authenticity.

Good day to you,
Love your site. However the recaptcha & audio makes you wonder if  this is worth the trouble. Today I entered a long string of numerals a minimum of 8 times per entry. How much can you stand someone who says "thanks you for improving this captcha' and then doing what they do over & over again?

Kindly change the recaptcha & audio into something fun & doable There are plenty. Such recaptcha entry may drain your resources and customer interest. too.

Thank you for the tokens.



Where did you see the recaptcha? On which site?

If you are referring to vfaucet.com (I see you commented on their thread):

Good day to you,

Thank y for the regular tokens. Do please repair the faucet- keeps shifting left & right even as the audio numbers are entered. I don't understand.

Thank you again for the faucet.

That site is not run by Spells of Genesis, got to ask the site directly.

What is the current timeline for completion of beta testing. World release. Card mania. Burned BCY. Rocket card price and BCY value?Huh

How long must i wait to be the proud owner of the first massively popular, front-page of Forbes famous mobile game built around the crypto ecosystem?Huh?

Love your optimism, and your sentence. Could make it into a slogan:

The first massively popular, front-page of Forbes famous mobile game built around the crypto ecosystem!

YAY looking fwd to that too!  Smiley

On the contract is specified they are going to translate the game in Chinese. Though I negotiated 3 territory publishing exception as Japan China and Korea.
Since those 3 are very important markets. As you mentioned China is very important and we need someone with an important knowledge of the market to maximize the impact.
So once the deal is closed with channel 4 we will have much more weight to start discussing with Chinese potential partners.


maybe voters deserve to see and read the contract they're going to vote?

Contracts are private between companies, also SoG is not an Open Source project or a non-profit org.
I doubt it's even fair to ask that.

I doubt it's fair to ask you to vote for anything unknown  Wink

The eligible voters could be offered the private access to the matter

I think that would be very wrong, companies setup agreements and they expect these to be private.
You and I are not part of SoG nor all4games so you shouldn't even ask for that, in my opinion.
Very pretentious of you to even ask.

2. If there was 15 millions BitCrystals dedicated for Awareness & Promotion what is 1/3 of all issued BitCrystals. Why they are not used for this? And you offer them part of the pie.

I started to answer this question for a little while but I'm figuring out I don't fully understand your question. Could you elaborate on how BitCrystals for promo could be used ?

If theirs policy is to get part of revenue, then is troublesome. My point was that there was huge chunk of BitCrystals reserved for Awareness & Promotion. All4Games will be partner that will help SoG with Awareness & Promotion. So should be paid from this bag. 

It adds to my confusion, that I have no ideas for what will/was this 15 millions BitCrystals used. If they will be efficiently used for Awareness & Promotion, then All4Games will not really need to do much but just take part of revenue.



At the end is less important how they will get paid, but that they will do their job.

The revenue share is  a standard within the industry it is not troublesome it's the way things work.
The game hasn't even launched yet, those BCY could be used in many different ways to setup prizes for tournaments, give rewards to users that test SoG (that is already happening), bounties, etc...
There is still a long way to go for the game to improve and be complete and after that plenty of uses for these BCY.
Having that reserve is necessary, as well as all4games getting their cut of revenue.
As Yodark mentioned if it doesn't work, after a year things can go either way.
I have confidence the team is doing the right thing with this proposal and BCY.
And the fact they ask the community before they take a decision as big as this it is a +1000 for me.

YAY I'm going to vote a big YES to the All4Games proposal.
I think this is what SoG needs to be known by more gamers outside the bitcoin community.
Good luck with the vote and keep us posted on how it goes with All4Games.

SOG - NEW GAMEPLAY RELEASE IS HERE!

The hard work of our developers during these last weeks bears its fruit! The new gameplay release is here!
What's new?

  • NEW SERVER
    The major news brought by this build is our new server! Maybe you are not as excited about it as we
    are, but, trust me, you should Wink
    Our new server is more robust and will serve us a lot in the future. We've transferred several game
    fonctionalities from the application to the server side. This means that all the so far known cheats,
    as for example playing simultaneously on several devices, are no more possible!
  • NEW SPELLS SYSTEM
    Another big change, and this time you'll notice it very quickly, is a new spells system. Each character
    having a spell will release it at their first turn. The spell will stay on the playground, until you'll decide
    to trigger it by shooting it. Adding another player-depending factor means more strategy decisions
    during each turn.
    And now enemies can trigger spells too!
  • NEW LEVELS AND MORE
    You will discover the animations have changed, some obstacles are more complicated and there are two
    new levels too!

The testing Season 4 will start later this week. We want to be sure that the server transfer does not generate
any major issues, in order to avoid making any big changes during the season. We will bring you more news
shortly
.

Please, note that all your achievements (except your blockchain based cards, of course) will be reset again
before the new season starts. Also, the leaderboard will be updated only with the beginning of the testing
season.

The Android users can download the new version here, the iOS users will receive an automated notification
shortly.

WARM UP TO BE READY FOR THE SEASON 4!


Great news, can't wait to test the latest release and looking forward to find out the testing rules for Season 4.
Getting ready for the action!  Cool
