#Post caps on items so we can invest seriously. This is a crypto game after all

One big problem with the market is the caps are all messed up. If an item is capped, meaning no more will be minted, that cap should be displayed on the item.

For example, ThaiViking said today that Neo Tokyo will never do another Proton giveaway on the official Off The Grid channel. If that is true, then the final mint numbers should display on the item. It should say "18/257" or something. If an item is capped, we as investors need to be able to see the cap in order to make wise decisions.

Items like the single use were adjusted mid event, so they now say 111/100 for example. That should reflect the final number of minted Single Use Masks. If people still have hexes from old events that can pull those items, give them expiration dates, force the opening so we can get final mint numbers.

This is important for investors. We need to know supply of the items.

If an item is no longer being distributed, dont say "18/1,250,000" because then you scare away buyers on the market that fear the item will be re-released or the cap will be met one day. If OTG is to be taken serious as a crypto game and these NFTs as serious crypto investments, then you OTG need to respect us as investors enough to give us supply numbers on items so we can make wise financial decisions.

Lastly, stick to your limits. When you set a limit for something, the market starts trading based on what you set. If you extend the limit, then you screw over the guy that paid 100k gunz for an item that was promised to be limited.

Thank you for making collecting in this game so fun! I look forward to all the market has to offer in the future.

also they should tell us the limit on the rare items at the beginning of the event instead of waiting to reveal it when the event is over

Shouldn't be moving the goalposts whenever it suits them ie. Just because peeps be moaning there shouldn't be an all of a sudden increase in mints.
Increasing drop rate for rare items defeats the purpose of the original idea "a rare item"

I completely agree, but I see it as a tough one. Just like there are people who still have Player Zero sets to decode, there will be people with All-Star sets to decode as well, and certainly other stuff accumulated before they added the feature where items are minted immediately instead of going through the HEX page to be decoded.
That said, even so, it wouldn’t be unreasonable for the counter to update automatically with every new mint. There’s obviously work behind it that takes time, and there are surely more important things on the priority list. And this will probably always come second, because from the very beginning we’ve been told not to see the game or the NFTs as an investment and that no return is guaranteed.
But having said that, and setting aside the usual “safety” disclaimers, all of us invest time, energy, and sometimes money to accumulate items that we can resell in the future for profit. So yes, we should be protected first as supporters and then as investors. And the only protection we really need, in my opinion, is transparency about the real total supply of items.
And I completely agree that if items that haven’t been decoded yet can’t be burned, then their decoding should be forced

There is one item that they pre capped and is a set number and that is the Alpha badges and leaderboard rewards. The serial numbers are cross platform and are set.

If they post a 30 day limit on event hex’s people wouldn’t be able to hold them and prevent items from capping. I think that’s the main issue.
