Feels great that soft launch is out... the BCY price has taken a hit, but it is expected with launch of a finished/complete product as expectations were too high.

The order book for bcy is actually looking a far more healthy right now than it has in the past year. Far more orders on both sides of the buy/sell, and while sell depth is really high, buys are staying well above 100BTC. All good signs.

Need more tutorials like KingSlamma. Need to have clear value of owning cards when playing the game. Need finished product! EDS is doing great with their budget and I would prefer they take their time than dumping BCY to speed things up, but pressure is on , it feels like the crypto world is watching......

Good job EDS on making the soft launch!

The game really needs more explanation as it doesn't seem to make much sense if you just go and try to play it. How the cards relate to the game play and the difference between gems and crystals and gold and upgrading and stuff should all be explain before you start playing.

You cant use Gems yet. so Basically no one knows for sure beside Jasper what are they for.   Game is not finished. That si a big disappointment i got. But generally, when i made new account to play from start without any blockchain cards. Is really fun to play first 2 days.

My disappointment is that I expected game and all around will be finished. Like it would be real release yesterday. So from now on would be only polishing bugs. But now whole parts of game are missing and I see was already soem changes from yesterday. So my speculation is that there will still be a so called Soft Launch when all stats will reset wand we will be able to test full game fro a week or so before Full launch.

Ok so you can't use gems or blockchain cards or bitcrystals, that's understandable. But I can't even see at first look what the in-game cards do. I can't see any difference between one or the other - all I can see is that you point at a ball and click. There is no explanation of the gameplay at all, if there actually is any beyond clicking a ball.

You can normally use blockchain cards. I personally made new account to experience how new players see the game. And on this new account i dont have any blockchain cards.

To see your cards and their strength you go to team page, then double click on a card:




This card adds 1 speed you see in top right corner. It has 1 strength and 8 health. Yellow and red ball under the picture. It also have a spell Flame, that hits with 2 strength.


But generally you are right. Game needs more explanations. At least at first Campaigns. Since si expected that are made by totally new players. So explanations pop up while doing first campaigns. Also there could be some text when you hover Achievements. To understand what that achievement is for and how to achieve it.  Maybe also for other things to better understood by new players.
 

I think it needs more explanations or some kind of walkthrough badly. As an example, you mention speed - it is obvious you have a speed and that cards affect it but whats not obvious is why it matter what your speed is - does this also affects how far your shots travel or something or its just an aesthetic thing? Also the damage I do seems to change randomly and sometimes enemies reset back to full strength; I assume this is because they are using some kind of spell or power they have or something but with no explanation what is happening the whole thing just seems random and silly.

Yes enemies use same cards as you so also same spells. to strenghten up, to get shield to get more health. to slow you down and to reduce your shield.  You learn this only with playing. When you observe.  Speed is capped at 6 Each card have it from 0-3. So is tricky to combine to have 6 speed.
All this is not super important fro day.1 player. He can learn them with daily play. But yes. there should be at least basic things explained first day and the rest also latter.

Anyone know of any more details related to MAGICFLDC? I saw the Foldingcoin interview last month. Anticipation is killing me.
Same with ORB (Ownership Revolution through the Blockchain??) I read that the release was today but I can't find much mention of it yet.

Thanks

Works fast enough to me same as did yesterday.  You can test mobile version if pleases you more. Is not much different from web version beside few things that was added. Gameplay is same. So just grab it and play.

i have to say that other than a few small fixes, this game is really good. i have been playing it since 2 days ago and im getting addicted to it, it is very challenging, every level is more difficult than the last. if EDS promotes this game really good when ready, it may become a hit. am at level 5 ( the messenger) i have not been able to beat this level.

You need to go hit infinity to get some more gold and summon cards and upgrade your best cards with crystals or hope to get better cards from summoning.  

Also if new Campaign online when you finish 3 in old Campaign. But overall are 9 in each. Taking more and more stamina.
