🎮〕illuvium-zero

[bitter glade]

There is currently a “fence” in that no illuvial related things can come from anywhere but Zero.

But also the intent is to keep almost all skins related to Zero in some way. Because it’s more fun that way.

I just can’t tell you exactly how many non zero skins there would be. But again, the intention is almost all will come from zero.

[bitter phoenix]

That’s a good enough answer for me. 🫶🏻 I just hope it’s pretty well thought out to keep it that way

[bitter glade]

This is mind boggling. What specifically have we done with regards to skins to treat people poorly?

The effort the team has put into Illuvium zero skins is MUCH more than 99% of the total skin effort. Grant and the team refused to do them in any way but perfectly. It’s a massive undertaking purely to support the Illuvium zero holders with something awesome that only they can generate.

My idea is more extreme.

[empty path]

There was no talk about IZ when you said only skins would be from balancer sale until open beta 🙂

[pearl marten]

The idea of Megacities having acces to some unique building(s), at some point after the OB launch, is still on the table?
I know this was hinted in the past

[bitter phoenix]

A lot of delays have happened and new ways to keep up engagement had been be implemented

[amber atlas]

@pearl marten I'll post my proposal for a Durable IIP to ideas channel. An IIP that contains a decision that can't be easily changed (to remove or change such a decision it require multiple council epochs to vote for it with a super majority).

This won't addresss anything that as already happened, but will allow people to have faith in certain decisions being more durable.

But not today, its late on Friday!

[pearl marten]

And i know someone asked this a few times but because time was almost up Johhny didn't had the time to answer it - roughly it is decided how many weeks prior to OB launch will IL Zero be 'live'(time for people to build up their lands etc)?

[pearl marten]

This sounds good Johnny! Can t wait to see it

appreciate you getting this on yt before you went to bed Rich:)

[whole spear]

Np

even timestamped with the major categories 😉

i gotta be up in 5 hours though

so enjoy

[bitter phoenix]

Gn Rich

[heady basalt]

That's a great idea!

[heady basalt]

I only recently joined this Discord group, so I am trying to catch up on those things that I have missed...

Are there skins available besides those that can be obtained (via Blueprint) in Illuvium: Zero?

[pearl marten]

Let's hope it's still a thing! 🙂

[heady basalt]

Yeah...maybe there could be a landing pad for spaceships so that you can transport resources to other plots through the Marketplace faster. Just a thought.

[bitter glade]

Yes. There are some skins given as rewards for certain activities like buying in the balancer sale, buying beyond D1sks, etc.

But there are like 7000 skins for Zero and that will be where almost all skins come from, even non illuvial based skins.

[heady basalt]

Thanks! I think that the Balancer sale happened before I got involved.

[heady basalt]

Wow. That's sounds like a monumental undertaking! Does that figure count each stage of a Blueprint as a separate skin? Again, I am still learning how some of this works. Also, will all of those skins be available at the same time, or will they be introduced gradually?

[bitter glade]

Me too!

[bitter glade]

It does.

We are trying to get as many done before launch as possible. All will be available as data and NFTs.

There could be some art assets not done and so you might get a Bach drone with pink undies that say “not finished” but it wouldn’t be long for that to be updated.

(And no, pink undies Bach isn’t going to be in Hearts Ablaze)

[bitter phoenix]

You just had me so excited for a second. 🫣

I really want pink undies on my drone now

[pearl marten]

@bitter glade Any comments(leaks) about this? 😄

[bitter glade]

Megacities will absolutely have unique buildings. The example I’ve said since the start is if we eventually manage to get off planet, we could do a space exploration game. You’d need a ship to get there. Who will make your ship? You will commission someone in Illuvium Zero.

That’s fairly high concept, but there are other buildings that will be required to do stuff and only land holders can help. Double so for megacities holders.

[grand silo]

omg. ill never put Zero down

[pearl marten]

That's awesome! thanks for confirming

[grand silo]

megas are excellent for scanners loads of room

[heady basalt]

I love how the team is thinking so far into the future! It's fun to think about the possibilities! Speaking of spaceships, maybe there could be a cooperative mission in which all landowners could participate. Perhaps the Illuvial world is being threatened by an asteriod, comet, or meteor shower, and the landowners have to build ships and weapons to neutralize the threat. Just an idea. 🙂

[slate tide]

GE

[heady basalt]

Hello, everyone! I posted a suggestion in the #feedback-ideas forum. Please check it out when you have a few minutes!

[steady oriole]

What’s the need for secrecy on this proposal?

[bitter glade]

It's not something that can be done for a while so it doesn't help to be a distraction.

[mortal smelt]

Man I wish anyone from the team mentioned buying blueprints couldn’t be used in the game before I bought them. 🤦‍♂️

[grand silo]

from what I understand around the leaderboard style rewards for Zero are still a no go. For me I was really looking forward hitting those ranks I am bit disappointed would be nice to compete for ILV. Also, got goose bumps when the talk was around yrs down the track and the development of Zero. imagine that game

[mortal smelt]

someone should pin that other peoples blueprints can't be used with the plot as to avoid other people like myself from wasting money

[empty path]

There is so much pinned, nobody gonna read all that

[mortal smelt]

Would of helped me

I like how all the news happens after the fact

[empty path]

https://tenor.com/view/book-of-boba-fett-the-mandalorian-this-is-the-way-the-book-of-boba-fett-mandalorian-gif-24825263

[mortal smelt]

Now how to convince the owners to buy back the blueprints...

[radiant sky]

Sell cheaper

[mortal smelt]

of course the Web3 way

buy high sell low

guess I can thank my taxes

[radiant sky]

Info was out, it's just the Same as with most Info... you have to specifically dig after it in discord, or be lucky and were online AT the right time

[mortal smelt]

Which is wack

what is the point of having pins if this is the case, but oh well its just a small percentage that gets burned

[mortal smelt]

TBH I have been here almost everyday to check and there was no mention, but if someone can pull it up i'd appreciate it.

[radiant sky]

Am on my phone, so i can't really search for stuff. But for sure Look it up for you when i'm back home

Idk maybe it's just me but mobile discord search really got fucked up since last update

[mortal smelt]

Appreciate it Dr.Spoon as always you are a plethora of information, thank you ser

[amber aurora]

GM folks. Land is getting reset again, right? Is there an estimated date for that?

[heady basalt]

Yes, the data will be reset again, but Q2 is the best estimate at this point.

[amber aurora]

Appreciate it, thanks

[pseudo elm]

do we know if megacities will be turned on for the next round of testing?

[amber aurora]

Hope so. Really looking forward to that

[pseudo elm]

yep, got a 2x2 in crimson waste with a 3, 2, and two 1s. just want to see how it works

i can't tell you how excited i am to see this game (and the ILV ecosystem) go live in the future

[amber aurora]

I suck at auto battle. Would like to play over world but will def play Zero

[pseudo elm]

yeah, i'm mainly a zero guy too. my son will play the arena, and i can provide him with blueprints. but ive never been good at those types of games. too old to have been in on the pokemon era

but i think zero can be a really nice way to play and earn without having to win against others

[amber aurora]

Battle for efficiency

[pseudo elm]

non-related random question: is there any reason for me to NOT claim blueprints from all my lands right now? i have one land i still haven't done that on

[amber aurora]

I only got the bps from one plot. I didn’t see the point in getting multiple copies. Did not seem worth the extra time investment.

[pseudo elm]

i did it on 4 of my properties. on my first tier 3 i just did it to figure it out. then i did another tier 3, 2, and 1 for speed and made videos on it to show people how fast they could go on each type of land

[amber aurora]

Can totally appreciate that.

Thanks for doing that. No doubt it benefitted the community

[pseudo elm]

hope so. i just hate that in between, there's not a lot of zero content to make. i did make a quick video on minting blueprints, but that took like 5 minutes.

[vivid cipher]

If you’ve got them ready there’s no reason not to mint

[pseudo elm]

that's what i figured. i'd just heard half a rumor about tier 2 blueprints and something to do with the current ones.

[little moon]

In the townhall I heard something about BPs purchased on the secondary.... they can still be used to craft skins right? the only thing they don't help is in researching for higher level illuvials? @amber atlas

[bitter phoenix]

Yes that’s correct

[bitter phoenix]

Can anyone tell me what items the blueprints that we have minted actually make the skins for?
For example if we have an atlas energy armour blueprint what skin does it actually produce? Is it a drone skin or ranger skin or a weapon skin? Or does it mean if we have all the right ingredients it can be any/all of these things?

[thorny knoll]

If I understand correctly, the blueprint is like a production license, so you can make all of things among one theme. It does not wear out after use.
Nice to see moderator confirmation

[timber glacier]

The blueprint visual specifically states it's an Armor Blueprint. It would correspond to the Armor item you can find in the Arena builder.

[thorny knoll]

What about skins of drones?

[timber glacier]

I assume there will be specific skins for them later on

or blueprints

[amber atlas]

Exactly this. That Blueprint would let you make a Kukka skinned version of that Graviton Sash.

Also I'm around for the morning happy to answer in follow up questions from town hall.

[blazing ferry]

Hey Johnny, in the town hall it sounded like the zero point transducer won't be active on launch for transporting elements/fuel to other plots, did I understand that right? You need to use the marketplace for now?

[amber atlas]

Yeah, its been put in the "if possible" bucket rather than the "must have" bucket.

[blazing ferry]

fair enough

[willow torrent]

Where can I hear the town hall recording?

[desert hound]

Hello guys I want to know about this project

[amber atlas]

I mean it may turn out that its simple to deliver and it drops for Open Beta, or in a release a few weeks later, but we want to keep the priority on the stuff that we really MUST have. So no one is thinking about it right now.

[desert hound]

Is the game released on mobile ?

[willow torrent]

Android yes

[radiant sky]

youtube chanel of illuvium

[amber atlas]

The Alpha is on Android right now. The Open Beta will be on Android, it will be playable on iOS via browser, and an iOS native version will come out if/when we can get Apple on board.

[desert hound]

Can u help me to give some question?

[blazing ferry]

Once that is out....will there be any difference in cost or function transporting to another plot you own vs a friend's?

[desert hound]

Is this game free to play and whats the minimum investment to do ?

[blazing ferry]

Alpha is only available for land nft owners right now

Upon launch there will be a f2p land plot available

[radiant sky]

@amber atlas is there an additional element sink coming for lategame besides scanning/research?

[willow torrent]

Yes landowners can make custom maps for karting.

[amber atlas]

Playing at the moment requires owning Land NFTs. We are planning a free 2 play version which is not blockchain connected (eventually with some rewards), but its not clear when that will drop.

[willow torrent]

Haha I wish

[radiant sky]

i don't even know what that means 😄

[amber atlas]

Not yet.

[desert hound]

How much minimum investment it needs ?

To earn

[blazing ferry]

oh really, f2p won't be out right away? Why's that?

[amber atlas]

The view is that f2p without some kind of onramp to buying land or some kind of reward will hurt us not help us.

[willow torrent]

The proposed "mario kart" game. I'm just joking that land owners can be mods using the assets to make their own custom tracks

[blazing ferry]

ah, ok

[radiant sky]

so gets t3 landark bonus reworked besides buffed?

[amber atlas]

On my this week, think of something we can do for this that keeps Kieran, Aaron and council happy... but is also easy to deliver.

Open to ideas!

[desert hound]

.

?

[blazing ferry]

Do you know if settings for zoom level and "show" menu selection will hold through plot switching? It gets old zooming out and showing building levels again each time I switch plots.....seems like a simple change?

[amber atlas]

I have plenty of ideas, but most are not 'easy' to deliver.

[blazing ferry]

hmmm, will think about this...

[amber atlas]

It isn't something specifically raised, its the kind of thing that might slip through on the beta, but definitely a good UX/QOL feature. Let me take a note so hopefully we don't miss it!

[blazing ferry]

support has it, but thanks!

[amber atlas]

support prioritises by nuber of similar requests though, I haven't heard much mention of this so probably not a lot of requests

anyway, totally agree its a very simple change

[blazing ferry]

ah sure, cool

[desert hound]

Bro can u tell me the minimum investment for this?

[amber atlas]

chekc marketplace, not sure what current floor is

[little moon]

the floor for a T1 land now is about $650

[amber atlas]

https://illuvidex.illuvium.io/zero/land?buy=true

[blazing ferry]

speaking of this....I started drafting up a proposal related to feature changes from the DAO. May be too early yet to implement something like this, but I'd be interested in your thoughts. Mind if I DM it to you?

[amber atlas]

No DMs' please.

[desert hound]

So, I must need floor to earn ?

[amber atlas]

Overworld has free to play entry points where you can discover NFTs. Illuvium Zero requires NFT ownership for now. As mentioned above the f2p versionw ill come, but it won't be generating Fuel.

[desert hound]

If I only buy accessories, disk and illuvator but not floor, will I be able than to earn ?

[radiant sky]

@amber atlas An additional element sink is imo crucial and should come as soon as possible after open beta launch. For now, there is only an element sink if you build for Blueprints production (scan/research), no element sink if you build for fuel.
T4/T3 which are likely to be built on fuel production have wasted space, also rip t3 landmark.

Or were there thoughts about adding somehow the production bonus of the different tiers into Scanning/researching/plants mutating? So it would be at least a bit more flexible for high tiers what they build for? (even tho would probably still be a waste to not build for fuel)

[desert hound]

?

[amber atlas]

The only earnings associated with Illuvium Beyond is the leaderboard, which is a pretty steep barrier to entry. Steeper than buying a land plot.

[radiant sky]

Illuvitars, disks, accessories are for the game Illuvium:beyond.
its a collectible game.
Feel free to read up in #🎮〕illuvium-beyond

[amber atlas]

(Note: floor is crypto term for the cheapest price, you would be buying a land plot NFT at the floor price)

[amber atlas]

I don't disagree, but its also something that wont kill us if it comes a little later. Maybe Beta 1.1 or 1.2.

[blazing ferry]

np, one more question I've been wondering about that I'm not sure was answered earlier

What specific in-game mechanisms are prepared for manual fuel supply balancing to either increase or decrease fuel supply or demand if demand is significantly higher or lower than expected upon Illuvium Open Public Beta Launch, or sees large fluctuations? Will these also impact how quickly ILZ players can develop their land plots (e.g. changing fuel production rate at the extractor/converter level)?

[amber atlas]

Would follow community sentiment here. Wasn't the original idea but I'm not against it.

[radiant sky]

na forget i said that, just crunched some numbers in the head and would still not build on bp on a t4 for example, so most likely just a waste of dev time.

[amber atlas]

We wanted to add some kind of wear/repair mechanism, Aaron pitched a good one about things getting less efficient as they wear out (but never to the point of being useless). But it wont be in the first release.

[little moon]

you need to buy a land to play Illuvium Zero. The cheapest available land on the secondary market is $633.... check out here - https://illuvidex.illuvium.io/zero/land

[obsidian patrol]

are there any screenshots of the blueprints armor?

[radiant sky]

talkin about the skin?

if so, i don't think so

[amber atlas]

Sorryif I'm missing peoples questions getting lost in all the conversation threads.

[thorny knoll]

It would be investment advice. No one will take responsibility for your investments. I think everyone believes that the asset price will increase but only you can make decision about buying/selling

[amber atlas]

There are no in-game actions like weather events in the first release of Open Beta.

That leaves us two with:

1. Directly changing balancing parameters
2. Adding building upgrades which cause a temporary sink of elements or Fuel
3. Building new features!

[blazing ferry]

sounds like a busy first month!

[amber atlas]

As I said a few times in the town hall, it will be volatile for a while while we sort out balance.

[blazing ferry]

yep

you're ready for it though?

[amber atlas]

Adding upgrades and balancing changes are small backend updates. But also only take us so far.

[blazing ferry]

think you have enough tricks lined up to deal with any volatility?

[amber atlas]

balance changes can be brutal if needed

(hopefully not)

[blazing ferry]

I just have a hard time even grasping how you would estimate how much fuel will be required for that first week. Seems like an impossible task, so fast reactions after real demand can be measured would be important

[amber atlas]

to be clear we won't be reacting to things on a day to day basis, there will be some time to observe, when we see a trend we don't like we will adjust

then observe, then adjust

in the end the 5% revenue target will be paid regardless

[blazing ferry]

I'm not too worried about that. Maybe you're right and I'm overthinking it a bit, but was just thinking about if there's far too much or too little fuel. I guess it doesn't hurt too much if prices either hit the floor or the upper limit for a little while.

[amber atlas]

Remember the price a buyer sees is always the max fuel price cap.

[blazing ferry]

Good point too

[amber atlas]

So obviously we don't want Fuel prices to be flying downwards and the buyer getting massive amounts of 'bonus' fuel.

but short term swings won't hurt (Illuvium)

[blazing ferry]

Will buyers have a minumum purchase amount then? $5 or something and you get your set amount of fuel plus the bonus fuel with that?

[thorny knoll]

I had a similar idea. The player could temporarily transfer more energy to a selected building to speed up production, but after this period the building would be "damaged" and require repair. A damaged building would have lower than normal efficiency.

[amber atlas]

We don't have an enforced minimum other than the fact you can't 'split' Fuel, so 1 Fuel

[blazing ferry]

sure

[amber atlas]

I mean buying 1 Fuel probably not a good idea, at such a low value you aren't going to be getting bonuses

(unless market price is <= 50% of max fuel price cap)

[blazing ferry]

Are you guys testing end-to-end fuel generation/purchase/use internally already?

Would be fun to see that in action

can't wait!

[amber atlas]

Fuel Exchange still in development. End to end testing probably a few weeks away.

[rotund reef]

I think I remember you saying this before, but the leveling pop up will be gone by Open Beta, correct?

[amber atlas]

Yes.

(or more specifically it only pops up if the level-up rewards you something, or unlocks something)

[rotund reef]

It seems a bit too easy to catch biodata on some of these biodatas from illuvials that have a 1% chance of appearing on your land. Am I crazy, or were the %s not applied on the pre-beta versions?

[blazing ferry]

Would have saved about 15k clicks 😄

[blazing ferry]

You're right on, they were made easier for alpha

[amber atlas]

I think it was upped to 2% in Alpha. Can't remember exact number off top of my head, but it was made easier at some point.

Alpha balancing here is nothing like the real thing, remember also there aren't just 5 Illuvials, and they don't all have equal chances.

[rotund reef]

It seemed like I got them all in under 10 attempts or so. Not an important question, just curious.

[pearl marten]

Hey @amber atlas ... this question was addressed today but not sure in the correct manner or maybe i didn't understood correctly - so if someone holds **now **a Megacity and mints the blueprints on a single plot of the 2x2 3x3 etc .. after the wipe it will still be considered that the Mega has researched those BPs considering that now megacities are not implemented?

[amber atlas]

Could also just be coincidence, only a couple of Illuvials are cross region. For you it might seem too common, but you might be the outlier. Some people took thousands of tries too.

In any case not relevant to Beta 😉

[rotund reef]

Hope I didn't waste my luck on the Alpha 😆

[amber atlas]

When you form a megacity it gets any BioData or Blueprint Data from all the constituent plots. So if the plot you are putting in to the megacity has the BP data, so will the megacity.

[radiant sky]

i had about 15% on average on my 16 plots. Not that it's acutally relevant anymore 😄

[amber atlas]

(This is under the assumption you are using the same wallet/account... once you sell or trasnfer the plot the data is lost)

[pearl marten]

Oh i see okay .. so that means 1 plot with all BPs minted for now is enough considering one would hold all plots in the same wallet. Thanks

[amber atlas]

Specifically for recognition of Alpha research we need to do a one off batch job to populate the data in the new backend, we will include some kind of support for Passport migration and (one) Hardware wallet transfer in this process.

(technically we don't care if the wallet transfer was hardware or not, but I mention 'hardware' becasue its mainly intended to support the idea that a lot of people wanted to move their lands from soft wallet to ledger/trezor)

[rotund reef]

If plants are no longer going to give us time-tokens (whatever they're called), what are their purposes going to be in the game going forward?

[radiant sky]

mutaed plants and granting elements when harvested

[amber atlas]

Did the new plant design get shared?

I thought it did?

[radiant sky]

yes

[rotund reef]

I missed it

[radiant sky]

podarium doc of 3 sites you shared once

[amber atlas]

okay too much to explain in chat 😉

is it pinned?

[radiant sky]

most likely

[amber atlas]

@rotund reef try searching for podarium or plants in this channel

look for posts from Dmitriy (or me)

[rotund reef]

Sure, where can I find it again?

Never knew it existed

NM, I get it now, run a search

[amber atlas]

I don't have the link at hand, but if you search in this channel you should find it.

yeah that 😉

[blazing ferry]

Will throw another out since you're still around, though understood if you can't answer this...

Roughly how many tier 1 travels per week do you think a tier 1 land should support, assuming it's optimized for fuel production and that production is balanced between all three fuels (not all crypton)? I know it's up to council approved parameters ultimately, but what's your gut feel? 🙂

[amber atlas]

I can't tell you, 100% not up to me, and it would be confusing for me to share what I think if its not what council thinks.

[blazing ferry]

haha yeah

had to try

[radiant sky]

https://tenor.com/view/bart-simpson-the-simpsons-at-least-you-tried-fail-failure-gif-7859548

[rotund reef]

Do we have any preliminary ideas on how many of each Blueprint are going to be floating around in the atmosphere yet?

ie, how many Ramphys, Synalphs, Holos, etc

[amber atlas]

Nothing is locked down here, the parameters need to be fed in to bonding curves. But there will be many of each Illuvial type ... but not many of a specific high level Blueprint, possibly zero or one.

[blazing ferry]

Good description for podarium and plants starting here #🎮〕illuvium-zero message

[pearl marten]

@amber atlas so each scan we perform (via Singularity Scanner) AND each research (via Materials Lab) will cost fuel? Solon to be more precise?

[amber atlas]

I don't know the prices of each activity off the top of my head.

[blazing ferry]

Right now they cost elements only, right?

[pearl marten]

Not looking for an exact price neither an estimation - just confirmation (if you can share) that these specific activities will cost fuel

[blazing ferry]

In the town hall, it sounded like this will change and add a fuel component?

[radiant sky]

Yes

[rotund reef]

Why zero??

[radiant sky]

Yes

[amber atlas]

We wanted to slow down Research a bit. So the idea is to throw a fuel cost at it.

We do need to wait to see what the fuel price comes in at though.

[radiant sky]

Was THE Big reveal in the whole townhall 😄

[amber atlas]

For example if the council really wants Fuel to be expensive, say $1, then we might have to back track on this.

[blazing ferry]

yeah, good to have it confirmed again though. I was concerned with the way it was asked

[radiant sky]

If no one find's them

[amber atlas]

But if they want Fuel to be 10c, then I think it fine.

One of the frustrating things about not wanting to split Fuel in to decimals.

[pearl marten]

Yep okay makes sense .. so only researching would have a fuel cost added .... makes BPs even more valuable 🙂 .. not against it tbh as long as it's not like the production of a daily T1 🙂

[amber atlas]

So this pricing IIP expexted soon is going to be a massive input in to final values in to Zero.

Hence why I wanted another town hall down the road.

Becasue it will be nice to talk about actual values 😉

[rotund reef]

THe original question was how many are in existence. Wondering why some may not exist at all.

[radiant sky]

Any Chance there is going to be a offchain Beta for testing if OW gets delayed again?

[amber atlas]

We plan to do a Sepolia test for all products prior to Open Beta.

But not off chain.

[radiant sky]

Last i heared arround 70k got minted from those Alpha blueprints

Guess you can Check on immutascan

[amber atlas]

In existence is a confusing word here. We typically use it to mean 'has been discovered'.
It could also be used to mean 'can potentially be discovered', but thats not how we use it.

[radiant sky]

Not talking about you guys, talking about US 🙃😂

[amber atlas]

I mean for you guys.

[radiant sky]

😱

[amber atlas]

leak city 😮

[blazing ferry]

whoa

[rotund reef]

How many of each will be available to be found once the Beta drops. You pretty much answered it, but I was wondering why there may be zero of any particular illuvial.

[amber atlas]

Because its not like they are created ahead of time and you find them and we send the already existing thing to you.

When you do research there is a chance you find something, then a 'roll' to determine what you found. You are more likely to find lower level things, you are more likely to find things that haven't been found before. But as things get rarer, there is a chance no one 'rolls' to find that item ever.

[rotund reef]

Got it. Just making sure there was at least a chance, small as it may be.

I'm all about these things being very hard to find. Makes them more valuable.

[amber atlas]

Yes a chance, and a chance for their to be duplicates, its possible we have 3 Rhamphyre Graviton Sashes and no Rhamphyre Graviton Shells.

[pearl marten]

Idk if this has been answered before - sorry if it did - but the skins on the ranger armor and on Mozart will be visible in PVP also?

[amber atlas]

I've never asked I always assumed yes. Can't see why not. @bitter glade ?

[radiant sky]

No weapon skin

[manic gyro]

@amber atlas this might have already been answered before but are you looking at doing a collect all button on the plots for the fuel to cut down on clicks?

[amber atlas]

100% no.

[radiant sky]

AT least you get an Autostart activity 👍

[pearl marten]

okay okay .. i corrected myself .. happy now? 😄

[radiant sky]

😂
Then the answer is yes 👍

[amber atlas]

We want people to click, that grind is part of the game experience, and as much as people find it tedious, its actually also part of the draw.

As per town hall, and many chats here, 100% agree there is too much clicking, hence the introduction of auto start activity which reduces clicks by 66% for gathering activities.

[manic gyro]

ok thanks

[reef jasper]

massive QoL update

[rotund reef]

Does the location of the land plot within the region make any difference at all in terms of catching particular illuvial's biodata, or will it ever? For example, If your plot is way up north in Taiga, vs in the greener south area near Abyssal Basin.

[radiant sky]

@amber atlas since you need to connect Buildings with paths, will we See little drones moving arround on those paths?

Kind of Like little drones for low Tier and giant drones on high Tiers?

[amber atlas]

day 1 no, day N ... hopefully

The Nexus has a big drone on top and he was always supposed to be controlling little drones 🙂

But that kind of prettiness is pretty far down priority wise ... even if it is really cool!

[pure fable]

yes a click should feel useful
not a click because the UI is bad

[amber atlas]

Right, and the autostart addresses the UI issue making the clicks more meaningful as they are always attached to rewards.

(keep in mind a lot of games require you to click to acknowledge... and then have multiple clicks to actually pick up the resources that 'dropped' to the ground... a single collect click is light weight in this genre 😉 )

[pure fable]

ok but autostart could be a problem because you cannot move a building once it is busy. So it will annoy people too probably

[amber atlas]

If the activity is free, you cancel it at no cost, then move.

Most people probably aren't going to auto start expensive activites.

So the chances for real world frustation are pretty low.

It's definitely been on the table auto start ONLY for free activities.

Maybe that is better... still on the fence, but your points make me lean more towards it now.

Alrighty I'm still here, but no longer actively answering questions.

Time to play some games 😉

Is there anything new and cool on Steam? Preferably indie and moderately paced (like a rogue-lite, tactics game, strategy game)

(sorry thats way off topic... ahh research... )

[slate merlin]

Thanks for the Town Hall Johnny! Any chance we get a build to test new features you talked about after February 3rd blueprint minting window is over?

[pearl marten]

Against the Storm - idk if you played it - Rogue like RTS .. very good honestly

[amber atlas]

The new builds are in Open Beta stream, complete rewrite which needs a backend. We wont go live with backend yet.

So no. I might see if there is anything cool that can be thrown in to Alpha build for some short term fun before the beta stuff, but no promises.

[slate merlin]

Okay, if you need any Private, Private Beta testers, hit me up! 😉

[amber atlas]

lol

[radiant sky]

Yea saw it, such a great art implementation

[radiant sky]

I Like the toggle if you want Autostart Option you mentioned very much

[radiant sky]

Check out palworld... Lot of folks mentioned in here

Totally fresh on steam

[bitter phoenix]

Do we have an answer as to where the skins created from the current zero blueprints will be wearable? Is it in arena as a card or is it a wearable skin in open world? Can we please have a clear and concise explanation in one pinned thread as to how skins work. It is extremely hard to follow through discord discussions.

[pseudo elm]

didn't know this existed until @little moon put this up in our discord. man i've been out of the loop

[upbeat drift]

What is the time limit we have to mint the blueprints?

And when we mint them,we need to pay a gas transaction?

Did we get a Zero update today?

[little moon]

nope

that, they are talking about the coming beta release

[reef jasper]

its the message i replied to

[heady basalt]

You have until February 3.

[heady basalt]

Nope, minting is free.

[proper quail]

There's going to be one final reset of our plots after 3 february? (sorry, i've been away for a few months, i skipped a few announcements!)

[radiant sky]

Yes

[lusty crag]

After this final reset, there isn’t going to be another one?

[radiant sky]

Not according to roadmap.
We shall see what really happens

[blazing python]

My ILVZ app keeps crashing about 5-10 seconds into logging in and pulling up a land. It goes to a perpetual loading screen. It doesn't save any progress of what I do on the plot of land. I can't switch lands or collect resources.

also support link now sends us to zendesk.com not illuvium.io, which is concerning. That link is either wrong or in need of an update.

Illuvium: Zero Town Hall | January 2024 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xs1l57yJ1XM

[thin helm]

I bet it's burning land or fusing land

[abstract gust]

Hi everyone I watched the town hall and just read through all the chat since but there is nothing on the changes to the power stations.
If my t2 plot only has Hyperion fuel sites and power stations can only help efficiency to a certain point in the beta, how else do you max efficiency on Crypton & Solon converters if it can’t be done by building a bunch of power stations around it?
I’ve only been grinding the game for a few days now so I might be missing something… @amber atlas

[amber atlas]

We didn't stop power stations affecting efficiency, we changed how their contribution is calculated.

Rather than each power station giving its own boost, power stations now contribute "Power".

This single "Power" number then contributes to the efficiency boost up to some maximum.
Different buildings have different power needs and your aim it to provide the full amount of power to each structure.

Power itself is summed up based on distance, similar to efficiency. But you can hit the power for a given building with less power stations, particularly if you upgrade them... upgrading them will increase their power contribution.

[rotund forum]

that´s new. Power stations were just level 1 till now, no? Nice

[amber atlas]

So you still need to build power stations, but, in part due to upgrades, in part due to maximum required power for given structures, there will be less of them.

The cap will make it a little harder to max out buildings, you need to think more about placement and consider the effects of things like Converters being near their element/fuel source (i.e. site).

This is agood thing, being able to effectively override all other rules by simply building more power stations was a bad thing.

[radiant sky]

Efficiency boost of sites will get increased?

[rotund forum]

yeah, having a zillion powerstations did seem a bit odd. I like that they can now be upgraded. Plus it means more space for other things

[amber atlas]

There are lots of small tweaks I don't know exact numbers of current state. I believe a small boost yes. But my point is that before the answer was always "Just build more power" whereas now the answer is "think about the interactions between all the different structures and find the optimal layout".

(of course there was still an optimal layout before, its just that throw down a hundred power stations got you close enough most of the time)

[rotund forum]

but all these changes, will they not be tested by the players before open beta? There seems to be quite a lot that will be different (and not just the look of the map and the building animations)

[amber atlas]

There will be a Sepolia testnet play testing period before launch.

[radiant sky]

Can't really summ everything up about the changes and how it will effect the Layouts, mostly because there are no numbers presented just the theoretical function.
But to me it sounds Like you still will build just power Stations and as many converters as possible, especially on high Tier. But it will give more variety in low Tier, Like you will most likely See a Lot of mixed t2 plots and maybe t1.
Would you kind ofagree?

[rotund forum]

ehm forgive my ignorance but is that like public for landowners or is it a small internal one?

[radiant sky]

Sounds Like public for all to test the whole game interactions

[amber atlas]

No because of the cap. If a building only gets at most a 20% boost from power stations with a power requirement of 50... you might be able to satisfy it with just 2 upgraded power stations within 10 grid squares. And you can't fill the gap with converters as the negative impact of converters is accentuated when you can't just combat it with more power stations.

To be clear its not some major change (to layouts), you will still build lots of power stations and converters... just less overall.

[rotund forum]

I know it might not be optimal, but I will actually build a hybrid city (as I have done now) on my T4. It just makes it more exciting that chance of finding something rare, besides the fuel.

[amber atlas]

* To be clear you CAN still fill it with more converters, its just that using the space for other stuff like research might make more sense when the overall returns are diminished.

[radiant sky]

Not sure i get it right, so if i have a converter

• i can push Max 20 efficiency with power Stations and i have to get the Rest from other sources?
• if i build a similar converter Next to it, i can't counter the negative impact with more powerstations?

[grand knoll]

GM

[amber atlas]

• Max X % it could be for example 20%
• Adding more power stations near a building once you have filled the power requirement has no effect.

[radiant sky]

Oohkay...

[radiant sky]

OK.
It's just super suboptimal, because no research Building Profits from your production boost, also on most Layouts you can barely fit any efficient Scanners. Sure you can fill the gaps nicely with mat labs, but you can't Run them all because you barely Find any biodata. So your whole plot gets super inefficient in the End.
It does Sound Like the new changes really help Building mixed plots, especially pathing and powerstations changes. But mixed plots get better for the Buck the lower Tier you have.

But maybe i'm wrong, difficult to grasp everything without knowing numbers and actually play it

[amber atlas]

because no research Building Profits from your production boost -> Research will be affected by efficiency, majorly.

[radiant sky]

Yea but not plot Tier boost

I guess?

[amber atlas]

oh sorry

yeah, as of now there is no affect of Tier on research that hasn't changed but as mentioned I'm not against community pitching it

(I mean community can pitch whatever, but I can get behind it if there is strong support)

Also there is a sort of knock on effect due to Fuel cost for Research.

(But not the same as a Tier boost, more about perception.)

[rotund forum]

This is just my personal taste but if it were up to me I would downgrade converters significantly more. I think they should be seen as a stopgap, a not so great solution compensating merely for lacking the corresponding real fuelmine.

[amber atlas]

This has been discussed a lot, either they are net negative or they are net positive. If they are net negative they game becomes very hard to play for unbalanced plots, if they are net positive its always worth building them everywhere unless there is something better to fill the spots.

We will tone them down a bit and changes like power stations will help. But until we add new things, if people aren't going hard on research then they are going to fill ground with converters until they hit net negative.

[rotund forum]

maybe just cap them, like the scanners. The closer you put them together the more they drop. Now they drop to minimum 50% I think.

[amber atlas]

Yes.

[radiant sky]

Due to how Scanners work and the new efficiency System, i can't really See Scanner working well in t4 plots.
Like die to the changes you habe to build converters in a certain range to the fuel sites i feel, which gives you less Flexibilität in positioning as we have now. So the free Space for Scanners efficiency will most likely dropp in average Overall t4/ t3 plots

I could now build 2 100% Scanner in my t4 for example. 3 Scanner in it's best spot was on 60%.
I built 26 matlabs, this number would even increase die to the increase of number of free Spots between converters.
I can't imagine being effective with a ratio of Like 2 Scanners and 30 matlabs.

[rotund forum]

That way you can only put 4 or 5 on a plot

[amber atlas]

You can have 30 mat labs all researching the same Biodata... I don't quite get your point?

[rotund forum]

yes, I have also 2, the other corners are always occupied. I don´t know if this is coincidence but it is constant on my plots.

[radiant sky]

Well depending on success Chance there is a sweet spot ratio, right?
Like you haven't found a new biodata before you got all BP for those biodata. For example You have 1 Scanner and 150 matlabs.
Also you probably don't wana research certain biodata, because the skin you can Make out of it is not desired of the majority ofnplayers.

[amber atlas]

You won't get all the BPs for the biodata.

[rotund forum]

26??? hahaha I made a park of 2 x 6 and I thought that was already a lot

[amber atlas]

Maybe at the lower Tiers, but its still going to be a massive uphill battle.

[radiant sky]

O.o why on lower Tiers?

But not on higher

[amber atlas]

Lower Tier Blueprints easier to find.

[radiant sky]

Aah blueprint tier

Got it

Yea but thats the Same with biodata i guess... So you most likely get low Tier biodata with just 2 Scanner

[amber atlas]

But 1 biodata feeds you hundreds of potential BPs. So 1 or 2 canners hould be able to happily feed a plot of your intent is to get 'everything'.

If you want to focus on higher Tier BPs then you need to scan higher Tier Illuvials, then it becomes tougher.

[radiant sky]

You had to fill some gaps between converters and not build straight 2 camps

[amber atlas]

In any case I need to head off. Chat later.

[rotund forum]

but that luck factor... for me it makes the game so much more exciting. Fuel pumping is just every day the same, you know exactly how many units you are going to get. But the chance, even the very slight chance of finding a rare bluerprint for me is sufficient reason to build at least 10 or 12 datacenters, and 2 scanners on the higher tier plots.

[radiant sky]

Yea, i mean some guys will Find it right? So if you wana go the blueprint road your Target for sure is to get those high Tier biodata.

[rotund forum]

take care

[radiant sky]

Have a good one

[radiant sky]

Sounds Like you can build Way more than just 12 mat labs with the changes 😄

More Like 40 ISH... But we shall see

[rotund forum]

If you want to focus on higher Tier BPs then you need to scan higher Tier Illuvials, then it becomes tougher. -> that is the idea. The lower ones are going to be so abundant, that is not very exciting... might even just buy them of someone. But not scan for them myself. Maybe start at Tier 3 and then upwards.

[rotund forum]

yeah, that is why I am anxious to try the new build, now it is just guessing

[radiant sky]

You can't really "focus" on high Tier illuvials-biodata.
You Upgrade your Scanners and hope for the best

The more Scanners the higher your chance

[rotund forum]

however 40... you will need a load of elements as well

[radiant sky]

To have a good amount of Scanners you need space

That's why you should play the blueprint lottery on low Tier plots.... Like you have 40x the Space for the Buck on t1 instead of t2

But Looks Like high Tier now gets forced to do it aswell

[rotund forum]

yeah, the scanners upgrade to 5 and hope for the best, but if you find that biodata you can concentrate on that with your 40 material labs 😂

[radiant sky]

You wont

I guess biodata also have a bonding curve... You fighting with your 2 Scanners on 1 t4 vs another Account with 240 Scanners on 40t1 plots... Guess who find's the biodata 😄

[rotund forum]

problem will be that for now you can´t send elements to your other plots, so getting the scanners and datacenters to T5 is going to be awful on a T1

[radiant sky]

Yea, but thats now... After a few months they all are Max.

And if i remember the beginning of Alpha season 1, t1 could hold up pretty well with t4 it's not Like t1 built it's first Scanner and you already are maxed out in a t4.

As soon as Marketplace gets the ress trading feature between your plots, low Tiers are maxed out instantly

Very much disappointed by the new Power System as it sounds now, because it sounds Like the build only in fuel is more or less no Option anymore. But mixed got Way better.

Also no Element sink for fuel production plots
T3 landmark ist so useless, you rather have the free space after you leave the very early game.

New Building works with plants, plants grant elements

To me it sounds Like the focus on low Tier plots is Way too strong and they basically give a fuck about high tier

[rotund forum]

well, at that point I would probably start doing the more logical thing of T1 blueprints and T4 fuel. But when open beta hits T4 will be faster for the simple fact it has way more resources. So you will have a head start with scanning blueprints. Once that lower tiers catch up, I will probably change the datacenters etc. for fuelconverters.

[radiant sky]

Sounds Like you can't really Change to only fuel production anymore

[bitter phoenix]

So in a nut shell t1 bp t2 mix t3mix t4 fuel max ??

[halcyon lily]

I'm reading this and thinking shit, I have a couple and it took me forever to get those.... but 50 matlabs?! How long you been playing this game?

[bitter phoenix]

Mega city do what ever you want because you will have so much space?

[radiant sky]

Who knows, but it sounds Like
T1 BP/mix
T2 mix
T3 mix
T4 mix

[rotund forum]

yeah I don´t get that either. I like the fact that they don´t forget about the people who can´t affort higher tiers but those who did invest in that paid a lot and relatively speaking get quite a lot less in return.

[bitter phoenix]

I hope they get the multiplier right for the ts

[radiant sky]

I wonder if they even playtest high Tier... Alpha season 1 was so out of proportion, Beta sounds even worse

If you Look at the fuel output ratio of t1:T4 of 1:10 and the fact that there was no Element sink for high Tiers and they rather implemented the podarium than an Element sink which you can only play on low Tiers speaks volume.
And now forcing the high Tiers to play the bp game is Like a Punch in the Balls. They went from Punch in the Face to Punch in the balls 😄

Anyways... I go Off watch some TV Show... Get Way to salty if i stay 😂

[rotund forum]

if you look at the price, a T4 is about 25 x the price of a T1. I don´t know for sure but I think a T4 has 6 times as much fuelsites, and the production booster is 400%. So that would make it 24, plus the fuellandmark... it should actually have the same advantage in the end than 25 T1... except a whole lot less clicking and time.

[rotund forum]

goodnight mate

[radiant sky]

I bought t4 for about 40x of a t1

The price rstio now is from the Punch in the face

Guess i have to sell the mega city with the high Tiers and buy some low Tiers before people realize the Punch in the balls, and high Tier prices drop even more

[rotund forum]

I wouldn´t do that. Nothing is carved in stone and if you have a megacity, and sell it might get a lot harder to get one back in the future

I have a 2x2 and not selling that. It has no T4 though, it is a T3, T2 and 2T1

[radiant sky]

Probably.
But they value clicking time too much, already expressed that in many occasions. Those rstios will stay because of that.
And i didn't spent 60k for having Fun in a game... I spent it for Profits.
Also, benefits of a mega are not thaaat big

[rotund forum]

I think I spend it for both, but tbh for profits my money would be on the staked ilv

[radiant sky]

Yea now would never buy Land again. Was naive back then 😂.
But a good point, maybe i sell and just buy ilv

[rotund forum]

that is true. I think they should increase the benefits of megacities more. There won´t be a ton of them, so it shouldn´t affect the rest too much

[radiant sky]

There will be Buildings for megacities only is what they come up with if you mention this.

You might just have to wait a few years until we are there 😄

[rotund forum]

yeah, didn´t they already say that? some spaceport that occupies quite a lot of squares

[radiant sky]

If we survive...

[radiant sky]

That was just a Phantasy example

Like for a Building Like that, you need to have another game implemented. That's years down the road

[rotund forum]

be positive. If we stick to web3 we will be great. If they change course... not so much. I have seen it with other projects, always running behind the next thing and arriving late. It doesn´t work. You need to be the frontrunner

[fervent slate]

I am very interested in the power station story of the person you are talking about above.
I would like to get fuel efficiently.🤭

[radiant sky]

Web3 will be too small for that many companies. You have to occupy web2 audience AT some point

[rotund forum]

web3 will grow. And for the web2 gamers, you have the T0 versions. But maybe indeed for web2 they will have to make some adjustments, but I hope they do it down the line. Now focus on web 3 release, and hopefully that will expand the runway for the time being

I´m heading off to bed. Speak later 👋

[upbeat drift]

On one of my lands,i see the blueprints but i don t have the mint button

I have zero built up and marketplace to lvl 2

[cerulean field]

contact aupport i guess

[grand silo]

I have read a fair bit of negativity re-land owning discords & x. Do the team agree with the community sentiment? as an example I could sell my mega for 100 ilv which I can then stake.

Those 100 ilv staked for 2yrs how many ILV for that would I get? 20,30? yet the land back then was 6 months away & yet 2yrs later we have zero rewards. I love this game but us land owners have got the raw end of the stick.

[fickle goblet]

Why would you sell the mega though?

[grand silo]

using it as a comparison to ilv.

[fickle goblet]

The thing is you're basing the 100 ILV value on current land market which is illiquid and even before IZ comes out

[grand silo]

current land v current ilv. regardless of when the game comes out staking ilv paid rewards. Land owners have received zero rewards. Ok the blueprints yes which for my mega probably equates to 1.5 ILV.

[fickle goblet]

I guess my point is that having land rewards won't really fix ROI for land buyers because we don't have proper price discovery on lands yet. Even blueprints we don't know the "fair" price until we see real demand for its utility in game. Low liquidity could be an opportunity depending on where you're coming from

[grand silo]

correct. My point is a having a even handed reward structure that includes land owners not future pricing. We have ILV staking rewards, Beyond rewards, content rewards, yet have yet to see anything for land owners, hence my comment that we have the raw end of the stick.

[blazing ferry]

They have some type of rewards working through council approval. You're probably right that investing elsewhere over that period would have been better and this won't make up for that, but it's cool that they're acknowledging and doing something nice for land owners still

[grand silo]

correct investing else where

[teal mural]

I wounded Wuts the max fuel a each tier of land can pump out per month if max out on upgrades🤔

You would need to sale 1M of fuel to get a $1k profit if the cap is put at $0.10

[bitter phoenix]

So many questions still unanswered.

[whole tree]

Hi frens, I saw about solving the fuel price spoofing and manipulation at the latest ZERO TOWN HALL video, but I didn't understand what Johnny said, why people would sell 100 fuels at $50 if a fuel worth $1. Anyway, I didn't get the max fuel price cap at iip39, anyone knows how it works?

[lone grotto]

where do you guys see all those news ?

[pearl marten]

Cool they're acknowledging but not enough sadly. I haven't heard of a project/game yet that hasn't incentivized early investors for 2 years holding their assets (land/NFTs whatever those are) .
I know how it sounds but i'm just saying what a lot of people think imo

That is why slowly but surely the sentiment is that people are selling and putting their money in other projects

And those rewards are in talks for 1+ months ... i can't see how that is a priority even if it's difficult. If something needs to be done and you consider it a priority have a 30-60 mins daily meeting until it gets done imo. Sadly, again, this doesn't feel right

[grand silo]

I agree it really feels land was not thought through prior to the sale

[fierce fern]

The Land interest at the sale was so high cause it was great but since then the interest is dropping.

The City stuff was such a good Feature but i saw people with Citys just frowing single Plots away.

I dont know but at the Moment you have more and more people who getting mad at Zero and beyond.

The paid YouTube guys try everything by pumping content out but at the moment we see a little bit of a low Point.

Lets hope that in the next few months it will Change a bit

[pearl marten]

Good points ...but in the next few months we should be 'live' and in OB ... what needs to be done is NOW .. imo too much time has gone by without addressing land owners issues

[grand silo]

just saw the heroes of marvia Nijafe did on the land seems they have it sorted.

[pearl marten]

Yep .. BigTime also is rewarding early investors (land/asset owners) with about 30% of the land value in airdrops - i don't know how the ecosystem works there - i'm just saying what a friend of mine said to me a few hours ago

So everybody seems to have ideas/fixes/ways to incentivize land holders..but not here .. not in 2 years

[fierce fern]

I hope that the sucess will come because i like the Idea but my Points are always the same.

The Eco system is to big with all the different Games for most of the humans.
To much different nfts and to much to learn.

Sooner or later it has to be more simple or its done.

You saw the open questions what people had about Land and the blueprints after almost 2 years and that is a side Game.

It looks like the Team has way to much going on and there are not really solutions for that.

[grand silo]

2yrs no rewards, now people are trying to create new ways of rewards when it should just be cold hard ILV like illuvitars and Arena

[pearl marten]

Exactly... The most simple of things imo ... straightforward and i don't think anyone would have had anything to object .. even more i think interest in land would've skyrocket

[grand silo]

I better go im getting to salty over this bs for land owners.

[pearl marten]

Yeah me too 😦 .. but i don't think that leaving is the solution (ofc if you don't have anything else better to do 😄 ).. our voices have to be heard

[radiant sky]

Agree, beyond rewards are even about to rise soon cumminity is for it and seems like council dudes also like it.
And here we are, the greedy landowners always wana have more than we deserve... 2 years later still no rewards.
But there's hope, they talking about adding "additional" rewards soon (since months).

But lets be honest there aswell, what do you expect to get? Ilv tokens 😂 good one...
Most likely you get nfts, like cosmetics or Stuff that onboards landowners to spend money on beyond, or we get some "cool" Stuff for Arena, so we will play that aswell if said landowner isn't already onboarded.

[atomic nexus]

When is possible next season of develop Blueprints to mint?

[empty path]

Q2

[tardy falcon]

Do we not have clarity on what the rewards will be for landholders who have held and played yet?!?!

[radiant sky]

No, it's on council stage up for discussions

[rotund forum]

I wouldn´t hold my breath for those rewards either tbh. It is a nice gesture surely but it will probably be a gamers type of reward (as you said, some unique nft or something in that direction). Not anything financial, although IZ definitely is an investors game, unlike the other games in their ecosystem. Best gift by far in my opinion at this point would be if they could give us some kind of early open beta access fixed date, something to live forward to, because (at least for me) the not having a real date is torture. If this were unfeasible, ok, but I think team is in a position that they actually do have a pretty good idea when OB will occur, and therefore also the IZ commence (aprox. 2 weeks prior).

[radiant sky]

there is no hard date to give that's why they don't tell you the date.
For sure they could set a date where it could be live for sure, but they need to release stuff asap because of runway, and when you release products on this way, you basicall don't know when you go live...
there is just like "ok we ready now, give marketing 2 weeks and then we go live"

[rotund forum]

Well, one can always assume the following; end Q2 is 160 days away. I think it is unlikely that launch would be any later as they have said several times that they still have hopes of achieving it in Q1 (if so that being the last day probably). Anyway, in this "worst case scenario" IZ open beta would be launched in <145 days. It remains speculation, but with the info that we´ve got at this point.

[radiant sky]

with info we got so far there is no way open beta drops in q1... and q2 is very unlikely.
Stuff is still in developement and final testing stage also needs time, probably not going to be the shortest of all testing stages which would mean it's a quarter of testing just that.

[rigid pewter]

you mean open beta for ZERO only or for all ?

[radiant sky]

Overworld/arena open beta

[pearl marten]

We have nothing.. no when.. no what.. no how... not even a start of initial discussions about travel/crafting/curing costs to at least try and figure out a potential ROI even if it would be subject to change.. 😔

[radiant sky]

zero dropping earlier isn't even fix, its more like "yea would probably be a good idea to let zero start earlier"

[rigid pewter]

OK....so ZERO will at least one month earlier then the others right?

[rotund forum]

They have already delayed open beta 2 times a quarter of a year, and as we all know runway still is an issue. Sure, they could test for a long time, but we are talking open beta (which is considered a testing phase). I don´t want to be over optimistic but I am sticking with my "guesstimation"

[radiant sky]

who knows

[radiant sky]

you still have to test stuff because of bugs/exploits which could ruin your economy

[rigid pewter]

so what will happen after 3 Feb? no new version and not data wipe?

[radiant sky]

like, they are well aware there is not much runway left, but worst case they can still raise more.
they also were aware when they refreshed to roadmap and pb4 is still in.
After pb4 there is going to be the testnet shit.
I really can't see how you think something goes live in q1 😄

[rotund forum]

why would there be a data wipe? There will be only one, at open beta, and that won´t be anytime as soon as february

[radiant sky]

alpha season 1 proceeds, just minting window is closed

[rigid pewter]

I am very sure there will still have bugs no matter how much test was did. it's about lots of money, hacker or cheater will try their best to make some money from this.

[pearl marten]

Everything surrounding costs has been like a black hole .. no hints, nothing public. I know it's a very difficult system to balance and put in place but still

[radiant sky]

absolutely possible, but you can't say fuck the testing we won't find all bugs anyways 😄

[rigid pewter]

lol...i mean we can make some rule to preven exploit, not trying to fix every bug using so long long time.
but i agree with you that testing absolutely needed.

[rotund forum]

I´m not sure if this was something I heard or just my imagination at this point, but I think the idea was that traveling and other costs have a $ price, not an ETH price, so that when we are in a bull or bear market it would be pretty much irrelavant. But like I said, not sure if this was set in stone or just an idea flying around.

But anyway, actual numbers are unknown at this point either way

[tardy falcon]

Damn. Wen justice for zero folks? Zero peeps gonna have to march thru the streets to get that love.

[tardy falcon]

Jokes aside... I think everyone is feeling the pressure in general now. Pressure to release OB, pressure for zero acknoledgement and rewards, pressure for better Beyond wave 3 launch, pressure for a fun arena experience, pressure for a fun OW experience... It's kinda make or break vibes. Like damn, shit's taking so long and we see other projects lifting off. The cost of low morale is less engagement, people leaving, and doubts about success.

Prob need a good ol' 'state of the game' video update from aaron to let ppl know what's up

[lusty crag]

Is there any news about Megacities? I paid quite a lot of extra for my Megacities, which I was able to get together. The last time I heard something relevant about it was after the Dutch auction.
Is there any news, towards the IZ zero launch, that MC will be playable??
Otherwise, it would be an actual joke considering buying lands with an extra price tag and not even being able to use it at the end during the game's launch - kind of LOL.

[radiant sky]

Megacity feature will be available AT open Beta launch

[lusty crag]

That's at least some good news.

[radiant sky]

Especially since transporting ressources between your plots won't be a thing at Beta launch

[lusty crag]

Yeah so my MC are going to share the ressources (my T4 with T1) right?

[radiant sky]

Yes

Probably going to be 1 Big ress storage for your 1 Big plot called megacity

[fierce fern]

I think thats on Point at the moment.
This Projekt is still very good with high potential.

But youcan see it with our "YouTube" guys.
Imagine how hard is there Job to still make the Hype Videos with the Minimum of good News what they get.
They make Videos about everything. Soon the topics will drop even more if there is nothing coming.

[lusty crag]

Do you know if I will see all plots at once - interconnected to each other (due to MC)?

[radiant sky]

Yes you will

But you might not be able to Zoom out that far to See all your Building soace

[lusty crag]

I'm looking forward to that! It's going to make it much more fun. So, as soon as the last reset happens, there isn't going to be another reset, right?
So we can focus on building our lands for open beta launch/fuel/blueprints after the coming reset?

[radiant sky]

Was always the case/plan
But Johnny mentioned the sepolia test for all, there will probably be 2 resets... Idk

[lusty crag]

So, does it make sense to focus on building your land plot seriously after the one reset in early February?

If that would mean it isn't the last reset on the horizon of Illuvium Zero - it wouldn't make sense.

[radiant sky]

Would be with all Beta features included i guess.
So you would be able to play arround with them.

[lusty crag]

But if there is going to be another reset after the coming one, I do not see any sense investing any time into Illuvium Zero.

Or did I missunderstood something?

[radiant sky]

Literally all the Info i have

[fierce fern]

Thanks for clearing stuff.
You would think with the roadmap things should be clear.

But every few weeks when i am checking by many things are very unclear.
I am getting more and more the Feeling do it ever will be clear

[neat zenith]

Hey guys. Will Land data be erased after the skin minting period ends?

Will beta enable transferring or Elements / Fuels / Points between my Lands?

[radiant sky]

They try to Transfer bp data, Rest will be wiped

Not at the Start, but you can buy and sell Element/fuels via ingame marketplace

[neat zenith]

For some reason listing by one of my lands is not showing in the other land🙁 and there is no feature to sell in game points (the ones that help speed up bldgs)

[neat zenith]

Whats von data? Skins?

[radiant sky]

I don't think it's planned to sell those Speed up tokens

[radiant sky]

Bp data

[neat zenith]

Thanks 👍

[tall crypt]

Did You play and take 15 blueprint/land?

I think, noot arrive to mint 100.000 blueprint.

[livid tinsel]

Rip lands... ppl starting to panic about the rewards land holders will have 🤕🤕🤕

[tardy falcon]

If someone wants to trade their Mega City for my Beyond collection then hmu

[lusty crag]

Yes I did for my high tiers.

[summer salmon]

how to mint blueprints?

[radiant sky]

Click mint in your zeropointtransducer

[junior hollow]

what are they panicking about?

[livid tinsel]

Ppl are starting to realize lands are a bad investment. The same amount on ILV 2 years ago should give more ROI

Take a look at the blueprints recently mint $2 each

[mortal smelt]

listing it is pointless nobody can use your plot's blueprints

[thorny knoll]

Regarding blueprints price in my opinion this is very good moment to buy. I have 45 from my lands, and i was buy 20 from people which probably don't know what they sold 🙂

[mortal smelt]

oof those blueprints you bought are not useable smh

i made the same mistake

[thorny knoll]

There is no demand for blueprints because
a) there are no players yet
b) they cannot be used at the moment

[mortal smelt]

dude I was told by @radiant sky that blueprints are tied to the plot and can't be used by other plots

i wish there was a pin on this

[little moon]

You can use the BPs bought off secondary to craft skins. However, they can't be used to scan for higher tier bio-datas since they are attached to a plot.

[radiant sky]

As soon as bp's are minted they are not connected to your plot

You have blueprint data stored tho

[mortal smelt]

i remember you saying i couldn't use the BP i bought off secondary...could be wrong

[radiant sky]

For sure you can use the bp

[mortal smelt]

this whole time i've been worrying i've wasted money buying the extra blueprints...

[radiant sky]

Everybody can craft Skins as Long as he Owns the bp+ mats.
There's no Land requirement in crafting skins

[radiant sky]

I didn't say it wasn't a waste of money tho 😂

[mortal smelt]

no i said that

[radiant sky]

Yea, i would sign this statements 😄

[mortal smelt]

you are right bro, good work! I got corrected appreciate that.

[barren barn]

When we have a larger gamer pool, we should all be happy with our BPs. IMO

[mortal smelt]

👍

[radiant sky]

Totally depends which bp

[barren barn]

Meh, they will all go up. Yes, others will be better and more sought-after.
I would like to see an option in the future, where we could burn or fuse together some lesser appealing skins and such. Maybe a larger recipe or along these lines.

[thorny knoll]

I have new feature. Skins could increase the chance of getting illuvial of a given type 😂

[grand silo]

totally agree with thew comments about rewards for land being made with items like skins. Trying to add extra bonus & not hard ILV rewards like illuvitars clearly shows we are grasping at straws.

[barren barn]

Like my ex said, something is better than nothing.
I was the nothing. Lol

[sudden tide]

Anyone knows, how long the pending withdrawn in ETH is taking ?

[grand silo]

if you are referring to immuteable L2 to L1 I usually have to wait around 10+ hours

There will be more than 1 builder per plot.
If you have to buy them ornget them with achievements is not revealed yet.
But since we are in web3, i guess you have to buy them and they won't be cheap

[weary bluff]

ull definitely have to buy shit, u paid for a land

do u think people that literally paid to build the game deserve free shit

Game Economy

Illuvium offers various ways to participate in the play-to-earn (P2E) economy, including the option to:

• Sell captured Illuvials
• Sell farmed materials
• Sell crafted items
• Earn a portion of the 1 Million ILV reserved for in-game rewards

Please note that while the game itself is free to play, a monetary commitment is required to fully participate in the earning aspect of the economy

[cerulean field]

at the moment compete in tournament.

[radiant sky]

Remember, we are in Beta... Nothings on chain yet

Skins are just cosmetics
Tournaments you can See in the different #1169004294473793597
Most also get announced in this discord as an upcoming event

[reef jasper]

tournaments are also in arena mode, illuvium zero is for land

[weary bluff]

money goes only to arena and the pictures

they stopped developing overworld and zero

no profit from them

[hearty cradle]

still waiting for johnny's proposal on IZ

idk if theres any planned for OW reward, but the potential to sell illuvials should be the incentive

[weary bluff]

i have no hopes for anything from ilv tbh, they beat themselves in the chest " oh we made 4 games at same time in such short timeframe" , but in reality none of them is even enjoyable or built to be played by actual gamers

so far the only game i enjoyed was in fact zero , that should tell you a lot about the rest 😄

[hearty cradle]

yes i would prefer just focus on one game. i did enjoyIZ the most

[weary bluff]

i admire the graphics and effort put in overworld, dont get me wrong

but it still felt empty and literally purposeless

hopefully when theres people in it , things would happen

the pictures are pointless and a cash grab imo

and arena has no structure to be adopted massively

itll just be the land owners bettin against each other in the end

and those that r being paid to play/advertise it

i cant believe that they had that much money in their hands and they didnt bother to contact actual gamers for advice

ive played quite some games, ive never seen a game in which the devs are actual gamers

they have no time to be actual gamers

daily rant complete ✅

[sharp elk]

In this case the devs are actual gamers.

[civic girder]

hi guys ive got all facts of the mintable illuvials is there any point in scanning after that?

[little moon]

Have you got all the facts or biodata?

If it's just biodata, then you can stop scanning and continue researching with material labs to find facts or blueprints.

[civic girder]

i have all the biodata and facts sorry wrote it wrong

[civic girder]

thanks answered my question wasnt sure if its possible to find higher tier illuvials could only find info on whats mintable thought maybe i can prepare for next mint window hehe.

[little moon]

In the current Alpha season, you get only tier 1 Illuvials.

[cyan bone]

🥇 dude you leveled up with that rant

+2 to Stamina for dedication to the FUD, respect

[barren barn]

I view the overworld, like the grocery store. I hate going, if I can get it delivered even better. However, sometimes you have to go in person. Lol
I put on some jams and plan a route. Then get back to the game play I really enjoy. My daughters tho, do enjoy watching dad running and zooming around.

[balmy elk]

Hey, i got a question, how much blueprints & facts can i find per illuvial?
And can i find them all on materials lab lvl 1?

[cyan bone]

In the Alpha the player can discover three blueprints per Illuvial.

There are five Illuvials in the Alpha, giving a total of 15 available Blueprints per Land.

[balmy elk]

thank you 🙂
Also 3 facts or more?

[cyan bone]

I believe five facts per Illuvial if I'm not mistaken (maybe six, my laptop is off which is where I play IZ) and memory is failing me

@radiant sky is about to dunk on me any moment now

[balmy elk]

okay.
I'm currently stuck on 3 facts, maybe i need to lvl up my materials lab.

[radiant sky]

3 facts per illuvial biodata is Max in Alpha season 1

Should be 5 in the upcoming beta, if nothings changed

[grand silo]

anyone know if solon, crypton, hyperion will be used in the marketplace as well?

[vivid cipher]

Do you mean like instead of eth?

On the IlluviDex?

[grand silo]

no was meaning in the actual Zero game like how we can trade carbon for silicon as an example

[vivid cipher]

Upgrade your marketplace to level 2 and it can trade fuel for a different fuel

But if you mean element for a fuel… I’m not sure. Probably not.

[still wadi]

Help how to download the game? After linking wallet it says purchase land to play, no download

[fair temple]

You do need a land if you want to play Illuvium Zero :]

[still wadi]

I am a scholar

[fair temple]

Then you need to log onto an account that is linked to a wallet with a land.

So your friend should first link his wallet to the illuvium account and then give you access to that account.

[still wadi]

Ah I see thanks

[odd bone]

Hello good morning, is there any news regarding the minting of the BP found in the Alpha? Besides Timeline (when will this be possible) any news on how? Will it cost fuel or eth or other crypto?

[little wagon]

to build it out in the beginning is a bit time consuming, but once build out it is aprox 10-20min per day to harvest and do stuff you want on your land.

[oblique pier]

@high sleet Need some advice. I was playing Illuvium Zero and have a T3 at Level 109 (Nexus VI, Quantum Fab at L2), have not yet deployed the scanner... and another T3 plot Level 144 again without deploying scanners. Is it too late to obtain all blue prints before Feb 3 in your opinion or should I go for it?

[radiant sky]

Not too late for t3, but you need to keep that builder going nonstop

[oblique pier]

Thanks appreciate the suggestion.

[little moon]

Get Nexus to lvl 7 so you can build up to 100 structures. More scanners and more material labs.

[whole tree]

hi hi， may I ask Who is leaving in the early time？

[tardy falcon]

Wut?

[whole tree]

You said pressure of people leaving etc.

[tardy falcon]

If you are active in illuvium you would see. If you dyor you can find out who. It’s not really productive to dwell on fuddy things. Ultimately I think change is good… gets things moving.

[whole tree]

Agree, hope Illuvium can survive this.

[high sleet]

T3 plots are super fast. Don't burn through your credits. Stack 5-10 scanners and scan away. Once u have 4 biodata transition and go 3 scanners and use Ur credits to drop 30-40 mat labs

[radiant sky]

10 Scanners 40 matlabs in 10 days? 😄

[weary bluff]

even the founders are quittin

we r screwed

[teal mural]

Na the community just have to use our voting power to get things done if needed but for now we good, it’s not like we don’t have a great team

[cold owl]

Anyone else having illuvium zero connection issues right now? I was just playing and it hung when I was switching plots, now it won't log in with a "check internet connection" error message. My internet is fine and I have waited/retried a few times over the last 30 mins or so

The captcha works before it errors out, so some part of it is working and connecting out

also,i have 1 map,where i don t get the mint button option

Feb 3rd is last day.
And make sure the market is lv2.

If you already minted the bp's there should be a "minted"

[upbeat drift]

it doesn t appear minted or anything

ok,will do

[heady marten]

Can we use our land now?

[mortal smelt]

hm...ILV rewards for Arena & Beyond...I am really praying something bomb to happen to Zero at this point. 🙏

[dreamy cipher]

Yea arena and beyond are rewarded with ilv. Maybe thats why they named it illuvium zero coz you get zero ilv lmao ✌️

[ancient nacelle]

The strategy is obvios imho. Increase player base by rewarding competetive engagement. The reason why ILVZ has no rewards is because there is nothing new to engage with. No competition between owners and nothing really worth anything that can be traded yet. If they decide to provide extra rewards like ILV, which is unlikely, land values will go up which will be great for wealthy people that have been able to afford it. But it will make it tougher for the low income market of players to get in. Think of regions where axie proliferated. I'm generalising but I assume most of those people upto $50 a day. Probably a lot less. Anyway the complaints about rewards aren't going away, so keep them up and you may be helping some already wealthy land owners grow their portfolios, and possibly those savy less fortunate get in on the game too.

[prisma swift]

I haven't looked in this channel for over a year, but if I recall wasn't Zero meant to be used to gather resources and sell so that's where your revenue would be.. If the premise of the game is to build and sell, not sure why anyone thinks there should be a separate reward system...

[mortal smelt]

increase player base and player retention is the reason for rewards, in the case of Zero I would like to be able to start earlier in Open Beta than all at once.

[vivid cipher]

Defense bot got over protective. I got you back now though. Sorry about that.

[weary bluff]

someone pin this

[radiant sky]

That's the plan already

[cyan bone]

Johnny has worked with Admins and the IMC to approve something special for Land Holders.

Two user groups will be rewarded.

• Long-term Land Holders
• Alpha players that reached end-game

More info to come, we want to be able to action it immediately once it's announced - it's currently wip.

[tardy falcon]

How is gameplay determined? If land was transferred to my other wallet will the gameplay still be recognized?

[cyan bone]

No issues on this, we have a plan.

[tardy falcon]

ok cool 🌟

[mortal smelt]

But some kind of idea on how that would work would be nice as 2nd Q is coming up...

[mortal smelt]

what is end-game ser?

[cyan bone]

What I've said above is already borderline too much.

I need to wait for an Announcement from Johnny.

[mortal smelt]

i hope end-game doesn't mean max everything, cause if so I gotta start cutting up some plants 😂

[empty path]

Nah, it's fine. Keep on going

[thorny knoll]

How to finish the game?
Goals are not working correctly. For example, I have three full upgraded element storages and full upgraded converters and two active goals:

• Build Element Storage
• Build Element Converters

[cinder grove]

Was the end game getting 15 blue prints? All buildings to max level. So many different strategies, so wonder what end game it is?

[radiant sky]

#🎮〕illuvium-zero message

[cinder grove]

Yep, read that as well😂 Still try to figure it out

[cinder grove]

Whatever it is, love it!! 🥰
Love the appreciation towards the Landowners.

[pearl marten]

$50/day nets you a T2 plot of land in less than a month so your statement of 'wealthy land owners' doesn't make much sense in this context. And 'wealthy' can mean $5/day in some parts of the world and $500 in other parts so it isn't a pretty good comparison.
The idea behind some form of rewards is that in almost any type of business early backers/investors of a project get some bonuses/return of investment/staking generally in web3 and this didn't happen for land owners in almost 2 years. Complaints haven't been made in the form of - give land owners ILV or else ... but rather some sort of a system that they could be incentivised for holding/investing in the project early.

[cinder grove]

In my opinion long term land owner in combination with activity should be rewarded annually or bi-annually with a special per land individual one off illuvial/ Blueprint or other rare in game utility. Awarding the die hard land holders and fuel generators.

We need to make sure people sell less land.

[bitter phoenix]

Is end game to blueprint stage?

[junior hollow]

sounds fair...people having putting much more money in lands than illuvitars and haven't seen any return or rewards. I 've been told many land owners are disgruntled.

[autumn ridge]

Appreciate the extra bonus whatever it may be for us land owners who haven’t sold and held since auction, keep up the good work

[frozen finch]

May the light shine on us landlords when the game launches 🙏

[craggy apex]

howdy all! I just finished getting all 15 blueprints today. is there a point continuing to develop my land now or is it all going to be wiped at the end of the season? lol

[little moon]

Congrats. Did you mint them?

No point in doing anything more now since everything will be wiped.

[dry mango]

Everything will be reset, but you can continue developing your land, and there may be rewards for those who manage to fully develop their plot.

[sweet timber]

thanks - "fully" means all types of buildings built to their max upgrades?

[dry mango]

It hasn't been detailed how it will work, but surely that must count

[weary bluff]

does lvl 1000 on the previous reset gets me in the 2nd group ?

[sweet timber]

Thanks, 🤞

[radiant sky]

I can imagine gameplay pre last reset doesn't count for rewards.

[bitter phoenix]

Rewards should be linked to to how long you’ve held land and how many blueprints you minted. 😉 just being selfish here. 😂

[bitter phoenix]

I don’t think any details have been announced yet.

I’m in the same boat though. Played multiple lands to get the blueprints but did not max out all buildings as I saw no point. Just was waiting for next reset so I don’t get fatigue from playing before the main event

[orchid ibex]

by when ?

[prisma swift]

Any thoughts on how another person can play your land while keeping your asset safe?

[vivid cipher]

Manually. Here’s one way it could work.

1. Put the land in a new wallet.
2. Create a new game account on the Illuvium website that this wallet will be connected to.
3. Give someone access to play using that game account. Do not give them access to the wallet.

No one runs scholarships out of this discord. So you’ll have to check #1169004294473793597

[prisma swift]

Gotcha, so they can just sign in with an account, but the account doesn't require authentication. I have an account with land on it, so I could just let someone use that rather than making a new account.

[vivid cipher]

Yes. It may not be wise to have multiple people playing on one account though. So just be aware of that

[cerulean field]

will it be banned?

i mean diff people in each land but 1 account

[vivid cipher]

At this point People don’t get banned for playing and testing the game.

It might get flagged as a potential cheat of some kind. But does not seem like a concern at this point.

[fickle goblet]

Re long term - how will it be known whether the land was just transferred to another wallet you own vs another person's via a sale?

[vivid cipher]

Immutable on chain data indicates what the transaction was.

Unless it was OTC sale and not trustless.

[fickle goblet]

OTC sales happened a lot, so if someone bulk bought lands today they will be considered the long time owner?

[vivid cipher]

Unlikely. My guess is the automatic assumption will be that you’d actually have your hold be on a single wallet for a long time to be long term holder. But may be possible to petition #❓❓〕support for special situations

They’ll share specifics when specifics are determined

[fickle goblet]

This approach seems more fair, bonus if they reward based on time held regardless even if you already sold (if it's something divisible like tokens)

[junior hollow]

if they sold, they lost hope in the project and shouldn't be rewarded. They were probably land speculators looking to flip and had no long term vision. Save that reward for the true supporters of the project. I do agree with rewarding the current land owners based on how long they held though.

[dreamy cipher]

yes the longer the hold better reward

[brave remnant]

So I just minted all 15 blueprints! Is there any resources on what to do with them for the best investment/roi? Also I have 2 plots are we only allowed to mint on one plot? Or should I be able to mint 30 blueprints? Thanks for any advice!

[celest narwhal]

So, how do I send feedback of a strange bug I keep having?

My T2 is level 873 it has 175/200 structure. 42 crypton converter; 41 Hyperion converter; 44 Solon converter. And when I try to add new structure the button of placing isn’t showing up. I don’t have the same problem with the other plots. But the other plots are T1 and the level are lower (663/701). Is this a known problem?

[steel folio]

Is there a way to see if a land i would want to buy has been used already for the blueprints? (already minted?)

[trim loom]

Does it cost anything to mint my blueprint?

And what do facts do?

[honest crystal]

any idea of what the reward will be? are we talking about tokens given to long term land owners?

[cerulean field]

free mint.

[lyric hamlet]

Someone offered me .5 for my tier 1 land

Should I take it?

I'm asking dor .75 🤔

[grand silo]

anyone know if f2p plots have BPs to mint?

[nova epoch]

no they dont 😛

[grand silo]

dam

[fervent slate]

I can no longer connect to the illuvitect site.
Is it just me?

[grand silo]

@bitter glade just listening to the ama with Scoriox the example of spaceships via Mega cities is an exciting concept indeed. I was wondering say, Mario cart style game had some kind of engine production upgrades. Would this mean the engine component would need to come via Zero factories selling them into the market? essentially we would need a engine production line?

just wondering if this example would be what you said that all production comes from Zero.

[teal mural]

I own 8 lands and I’m broke ass hell 🤣. Land sale made a profit of $20 million which was help develop the game so yeah nice little reward for being a good little investor we will take it🤣

[bitter glade]

Yeah that’s the idea.

[steel folio]

Is there a way to see if a land i would want to buy has been used already for the blueprints? (already minted?)

Also another question, do i need a second nexus to get more builders?

If somebody can help, thanks

[radiant sky]

In Alpha season 1 you just habe 1 builder.
Plan is to implement multiple builders in Beta. Wether you have to buy them or get them via achievements is not officially stated yet.

[steel folio]

Ah ok, tried building second engineering workshop but that didn't do the trick;) So not possible, thanks.

Will check, nice to have the option of the blue prints;) Is the blueprint a one time thing or will it be possible later also?

Thanks guys!

[teal mural]

Asked them if they can give us to the 10th. Most of us just did enough to get the blue print’s since we knew it was going to get rested for the second time.

[frigid stag]

do you know when we will can win ETH in Illuvium ? because my investiment in the game become hudge ( with land , blueprint, disk ... ) 😄 ?

[teal mural]

So something that maybe simple to implement at least for y’all 💪🏿. If a person build a hologram why not have them be able to like fight another hologram and the winner get to steal a little be of resources. Each land owner have a choice to OP-in.

[teal mural]

It goin to be a while gotta get the legal issues together

[frigid stag]

so bad news

[teal mural]

No just May take sometime and creativity to get things rite but they are working on it

[frigid stag]

Thx ❤️

[vernal estuary]

I can't either

[radiant sky]

You talking about wager?

[cold owl]

Dang it looks like the domain registration for illuvitect.com got sniped...

[craggy apex]

I sure did!

[craggy apex]

ooh cryptic! I like it

[teal mural]

Yeah

[fickle goblet]

I didn't renew it anymore

In hindsight I made illuvitect prematurely, we didn't know the final mechanics of the game yet, or even if it's possible to data mine the game logic on the new architecture they're doing. Also could figure out a business model to justify spending more time on it hah

[celest wagon]

I'm too focused on the arena I don't have time to follow the news of illuvium zero, what have I missed in the last 2 months?

[radiant sky]

Don't think he was asking Ng about wager in iz chanel

Rather talking about earning

[harsh dew]

Hello community :D,
I was wondering do we have any UI on how will look the blueprint panel, how to get the materials to be able to create those items(NFT) from the blueprints ?

What kind of resources will be needed to forge the skin will ?

[teal mural]

O wow definitely read that wrong 🤦🏾‍♂️

[radiant sky]

Probably better asked in #🎮〕illuvium-overworld 🙃

Since everything about skins and BP, besides finding an minting the BP, is happening in overworld

[vivid cipher]

Johnny shared a little a long while back. But not UI stuff.

#🎮〕illuvium-zero message

I put a lot of old pins in this single pin.
#🎮〕illuvium-zero message

[bitter phoenix]

You may have to contact support and report as a bug. That’s strange

[pure fable]

I really hope longterm holders are also people who transferred plots from hot to cold wallets.

[heady spoke]

Is the zero available on iOS now?

[pure fable]

That would be really bad IMO.
It would again be a bummer for all the long term holder who are sane and moved land from hot to cold wallets 😅

[vivid cipher]

No

[vivid cipher]

If it was moved shortly after minting then it ought to still be considered long term.

[pure fable]

so people who moved a bit later are fucked again, great

[vivid cipher]

No. It would only not be automatic. You might have to talk to #❓❓〕support to get included.

[pure fable]

ok that would be ok 👍

[vivid cipher]

The plan is not to include only as few people as possible.

The goal would not be to make things so strictly gated that most won’t be able to participate. But to do things in such a way that it’s a nice reward that can’t be gamed by people that were not actually helping test the game or were not actually holding their land.

[upbeat drift]

If i have a problem with minting the bp,where do i write

?

I have market lvl 2,the zero building to mint…nuts don t have button to mint on blueprints

And it doesn t say minted either

[timber glacier]

for that you should contact support using the link in #❓❓〕support
they'll help you sort it out

[fervent slate]

Will it ever recover?
I use it every day.😭

[radiant sky]

Every Day?

[fervent slate]

I was doing ZERO research every day.
I have more than one piece of land.

[radiant sky]

Okay 🙃
Heared about the changes in Beta?

[fervent slate]

Is this a beta version of Illvitect?
I haven't heard of that one.
It suddenly stopped working🥹

I was only using the placement map section.

[radiant sky]

Na, was talking about the Beta of IZ

[fervent slate]

I have seen information about plants appearing

[radiant sky]

🤔 they do appear now aswell

[fervent slate]

Sorry, like being able to use it for appearance equipment?

I am just thinking about the placement of ZERO

Maybe you didn't get your point across.
I use translation software for English.

[abstract gust]

How do I get access to this channel? I own a plot, didn’t know there was a channel just for landowners

[radiant sky]

Aaaah yes, but you just get those mutated plants if you build a podarium

[radiant sky]

Yes, placement will change a lot in beta

[radiant sky]

#🎫〕verify-asset

Get the landowner role there

[fervent slate]

The placement will change so much that it may not be as much of a threat if the illvitect site is no longer available.
Thank you!☺️

[cerulean field]

you got the updated version?

[upbeat drift]

yes

[radiant sky]

What's the Problem?

You built Marketplace lvl 2 and Zero point transducer lvl1?

[abstract gust]

Thanks

[abstract gust]

Can anyone help me understand the process of how you actually find blueprints?
I’ve only just started grinding my land 2 weeks ago and managed to get my nexus to lvl 7, 2 scanners, 3 mat labs & 1 data bank. (Do data banks matter if my mat labs are already at 150% efficiency from power stations?)
So far I’ve found 2 illuvials biodata & two facts through research.
What are the next steps do I just keep researching until I find all 5 facts on the one illuvial?
Obviously not long left before the cut off so would like the most efficient way to get some blueprints done.
Or any guides people could throw my way.

[junior hollow]

build at least 5 more matlabs and keep researching the biodata you have

you need a marketplace level 2 and a zero point transducer to mint the blueprints

[abstract gust]

Ok but where do you find the actual blueprints from, researching or using the scanner?

[junior hollow]

scanners get you biodata, and material labs get you blueprints or facts

[little moon]

Hello! I am converting solon to crypton with my L-Crypton Collider 2, and it's showing that I pay 2 Solons to get 1 Crypton? The level 1 collider was 1 for 1 so this one is worse? I am a bit confused. Thank you for your help!

[abstract gust]

What efficiency is the converter at?

[little moon]

@abstract gust You are the man, thank you! It was at 70%. I upped it to 100% and it now says 2 for 2. I will see if it can get 3 for 2 at 150%. Thank you!

[fervent slate]

I saw someone on YouTube explaining the information on the update.
What is END GAME?

[abstract gust]

Don’t think anyone actually knows yet. Only guessing what it could be.

[fervent slate]

I understand.
Thanks!

[spice crystal]

End Game, for open beta when everything is connected would be to Collect Fuel and sell

And research Blueprints and either sell or create skin from overworld and sell

[fervent slate]

Thank you!😆 ✨
I wanted to know what the conditions were, as there seems to be a reward for land reaching the end game.

[spice crystal]

No Reward. For now Only Blueprints that can be minted .

[fervent slate]

Not now, but at the time of the beta changes.
Also spoken of here.
#🎮〕illuvium-zero message

[upbeat drift]

yes.but the mint button doesn t appear in the right corner of the blueprints.on other lands,they appear,minted,all good

people are selling the blueprints for 0.001 eth??

like 2-3 $??

why?:)you grind so much to get them and then you sell for 2$?:)

[radiant sky]

I guess you have to contact #❓❓〕support

[radiant sky]

Because almost nobody wants them, so price dropped 🤷🏻

[upbeat drift]

nobody wants them now,because you can t do anything with them,no?

i mean you can t use them now,no?only when the whole game is launched,no?

[teal mural]

Who ever has a T3 Wuts the max amount of fuel was you able to produce a day ?

[heavy hamlet]

Not usable until next beta launch or official game launch.

[fierce fern]

You are right but who knows If there ever will be use for that.

I hope so

[upbeat drift]

when everybody will start playing,they will want different looks

[heavy hamlet]

Gonna be a while before the price of alpha blueprints is moving

[radiant sky]

Yea but they are t1 s1.... People want vfx, and not just a paintover

[onyx fox]

GM guys

[blazing ferry]

Hey, crack this one yet?? 🙂 I've been giving this a little bit of thought as far as making f2p plots stickier. I'm stuck on the idea that it should reward something in overworld in a similar manner as owned plots. Save up enough fuel for a T0.5 run where you can find some of the T1 plants/minerals but not illuvials....something like that.

I think that would give them a real goal/reward that would also encourage then either selling it or buying 'real' fuel for a T1 run to actually use those. Looking forward to hearing what you've come up with though, I'm sure it's more interesting!

This obviously doesn't come close to #🎮〕illuvium-zero message, but it's something quick/simple for single players to start with.

[crisp badge]

Is the land still going to be wiped before official launch? Still waiting to start playing my lands until then

[cloud canopy]

Hello all. Just wondering on a plot, is there any disadvantage to elements being right next to each other? Example, a lake and an outcrop touching sides,,, is this bad for buildings around it?

[little moon]

yes

before the open public beta

[junior hollow]

actually there's an advantage with them being close to one another. They both can share powerstations. I think the converters are the ones that reduce each other effeciency if they are near each other.

[cloud canopy]

Thank you 😊

[naive knoll]

The latest Illuvium Zero APK on Android is not installing. Anyone else having this problem?

[blazing ferry]

I had issues when there wasn't plenty of free space

[fervent slate]

Extractor6, you can get 30 pieces at 100%.

[frozen finch]

Yup

[austere flame]

"Waiting for captcha..." seems to be taking forever, is it related to trying to play IZ on linux?

Seemed to work better on the other OS

Killer FPS though

[teal mural]

Thx’s

[paper sleet]

Ok so I have 15 blueprints but can only print 5? How do I know which ones are better?!

Mint*

[teal mural]

Just hit mint on all of them

It’s free to mint

[paper sleet]

I thought we were only going to be able to mint 5?

[teal mural]

No it only 5 bio’s you can find and each give you 3bp’s

You can mint 15 in total

[paper sleet]

When does the new season start?

[teal mural]

The game starts Q2

[paper sleet]

I thought the game would restart before S1 begain?

[cyan bone]

whoops, wrong channel

sorry my reply was Re: Arena

[teal mural]

It will in the beginning of Q2

[paper sleet]

Once the new season starts will it just keep going.. like no future resets? And will the goal to mint blueprings

[ivory badger]

I’m trying to get all 15 blueprints on my 3 tier1 lands before minting ends

If everything goes right I will have 60 blueprints from my 4 plots

[vivid cipher]

Not sure anyone would know. Since it’s not built for Linux.

[frail skiff]

Hello everyone I've been out of the game for a while. when the real games where we can sell ressources will start?

[vivid cipher]

Fuel minting should go live when the games go live sometime q2.

[frail skiff]

Thanks

[frail skiff]

It means that our actual BluePrints will be wiped again and we won't be able to mint it right?

[vivid cipher]

The blueprints you have now can be minted. Once minted then they won’t be wiped. Because wiping the game does not do anything to the actual NFTs.

[frail skiff]

ah ok , how to mint it?

[vivid cipher]

It’s super easy. You open the game. Open the blueprints. Click mint.

[frail skiff]

I saw there are tuto

[frail skiff]

super sorry

[vivid cipher]

This may help as well. https://illuvium.io/news/illuvium-zero-alpha-blueprint-minting-patch-0-2-2

[frail skiff]

I don't have Mint Button

[vivid cipher]

Please post a screenshot

[frail skiff]

I need to add patch? ok Il try

[vivid cipher]

could be.

[frail skiff]

I just downloaded last version

I check on my other lands and tell you

On some other land I have

just need to build market place

I'll try to sell and rebuild marketplace on the one missing "mint' and reach you out after

[vivid cipher]

Marketplace at level 2

Upgrade it don’t sell it.

The F2P land will never mint anything. It’s just a pretend land.

[frail skiff]

Now I have this , first ones were minting now "Validation error: contact support" , qi must wait first ones finish minting?

By the way I'm stupid for the first screenshot it's the F2P land 😂🙈

[frigid stag]

zero on ios ?

when 😄

[vivid cipher]

Will be playable in Safari browser when the games publicly launch. In a few months

[vivid cipher]

Step 1: Go through and try to mint all blueprints
Step 2: Wait 24h, 90% of the issues are resolved automatically within 24h
Step 3: if the issue remain Contact [e-mail] with the information below

I've encountered a validation error while attempting to mint my blueprints that hasn’t been resolved in the last 24h

- Wallet Address:
- Plot IDs:

I've already went through and tried to mint all of my blueprints```

Sounds like a familiar issue.

[little moon]

Hey guys! I am late to it, but I am trying to mint blueprints on my plot before the 3rd and am a bit behind. Please let me know if I can buy some solon/crypton/hyperion (would just do a trade in the marketplace and time it so I will accept the trade as soon as you post it - Ie. 5 Crypton for 1 Solon so I can finish building the structures I need). I'll venmo you 😄 I could just buy the blueprints cheaper but I want that satisfying feeling of actually minting them haha

[amber rune]

hello! Is there anything that determines rarity on Blueprints? Or not at this stage?

[vivid cipher]

The marketplace is only pretend right now. No one actually buys and sells with other people. It’s virtual marketplace interactions with the game itself.

[vivid cipher]

Oh goodness you would even Venmo someone. Imagine someone saying yeah I just listed xxxxx Solon do you see it? Oh no you are right it was that many… thanks for the Venmo

[vivid cipher]

At this stage no. Everyone can get the same 15. They are not rare.

[little moon]

Thank you for the response, @vivid cipher - Yeah I know how the marketplace works. I was just hoping to incentivize someone to trade a few different fuels for like one of what I have on the marketplace, because I don't have enough to mint right now.

[vivid cipher]

No one can trade with you. The game does not allow that at this point.

No one has ever yet traded with another person in #🎮〕illuvium-zero

[little moon]

Oh the offers/trades in the marketplace are just automated?

Automated as in - not peer-to-peer just created by the developers. Ok, good to know! Thank you, Pelican! Any idea how to expedite gaining fuels before the 3rd? I just barely got the quantum fabricant IV so don't think it's possible for me to get there by the 3rd.

[vivid cipher]

Building more convertors. Fuel simply takes time.

And you are right. There is not much time left before the minting window closes

[nimble thicket]

I have few question about Scanner. Is it important to be placed in space or its ok to place it next to map boarder? And does building a path next to it lower the probability? And what will upgrade give me?

[mossy sorrel]

you can look at the efficiency to determine where would be a good place to put it, map borders seem to be a good place to put it right now, roads don't affect it's efficiency and upgrading it will allow you to scan higher level illuvials, currently unavailable.

I was wondering if megacities are planned for the open beta. it seems to be closing in and it seems we still have very little information on them. can we expect a lot more soon? or will it be way down the line?

[radiant sky]

Yes mega cities will be in at launch.

[mossy sorrel]

great... so details soon? 😛

[radiant sky]

Not so sure about that 😂

Looks more like they want us to jump into the cold water at Beta launch

[mossy sorrel]

hm... would that be a good idea? no testing whatsoever

[lofty creek]

guys I have an offer on my land but I'm trying to accept it but the transaction with imx fails, how is this possible, can anyone help me?

[jaunty rain]

maybe the wallet/order is not backed by funds

[lofty creek]

this comes out to me after signing

[lofty creek]

how can you place a purchase order and not be covered???? it's possible?

[empty path]

Yeah offers don't get removed when they don't have the fund anymore

[jaunty rain]

place an order while you have money, than move money. voila, you have unbacked-offers

[lofty creek]

OK, isn't there a way to trace the owner of the offer to understand if he was interested and try a transaction again?

I think he's one of us because he holds everything about Ilv in his wallet

[lofty creek]

in fact the offer is still there on illuvidex and it lets me do everything but when I connect to sign with imx the message appears

[empty path]

Yes, it's possible they don't have enough funs anymore. Check the wallet

[jaunty rain]

just look at the offering wallet on imx-scan. you will probably see that there are no funds available
