Hellow fellow Beyondians!

I'm hereby opening a thread to ask all of you for your opinions, critique and feedback regarding the last Wave and Exclusive Sale.

What did you like, what did you hate, what would you change?
Anything and everything - I want to hear it.

We always want to make the game and experience better, and throughout the years, your feedback has been super valuable.
So if there are things we should tackle before Wave 5 kicks off - I'd like to hear them as soon as possible 😉

Thank you for your feedback!

~The Team

Gm I had fun. And I need trade options for illuvitars like trading block and dressing room for testing accessories you don't own

I love Beyond and I think this was the best promotion sale we have had and we got to keep all the money from it! The critique I have for beyond is that it is supposed to be a collection game but disk prices are too high for any normal person to build a meaningful collection. Hopefully after set 1 is done we really take into consideration the collection part of the game And lower prices to something like $2 standard $9 mega. Or at least make a cheaper disk option without accessories for these prices

I really enjoyed Wave 4 compared to the previous waves. The only improvements I’d suggest for future waves are:
On Illuvidex, adding the ability to filter wave-specific T0s.
Including a “Mint of the Day” feature on the launch party page.
Allowing users to add their Discord ID to their ILV profile so they can more easily connect with others for trades, etc.
One thing I did notice is that from all the Alpha Megas I purchased and opened in Wave 4, about 80% turned out to be T2S3 Lynxes. At the premium price these are sold for, that was a bit frustrating. I’m not sure if anything can be done about that, but it might be worth looking into.
Overall, though, thank you for delivering such an amazing Beyond experience with this wave!

Edited: just to give an idea on the lynx issue, out of the 390 illuvitars minted from mega alphas (195 disks) 121 of them were t2s3 lynxes

In general I felt this was the best wave ever as community really came together and feels like there is momentum to keep growing.

That said… I’d love to see things that:

  • keep community momentum going
  • encourages engagement (trading, selling, working together to complete things, collaboration to solve a puzzle)
  • our own version of bitb since it seems like that’s rip

Some things to help with inventory management and QOL:

  • a proper burn mechanic that rewards in some way (xp, stretch points, special nft collection for burn, or something)
  • ask imx to pretty please increase max transfer to 100 instead of 39 for illuvitar CA
  • figure out how to fix illuvidex ghost listing issue to clear out non existent listings that still show
  • fix illuvidex name filtering system so illuvitars give better search results
  • make standalone illuvitar collection app

Critical notes:
I very much dislike T0 is required each wave toward points… either create a T0 wave collection that will stay each wave or stop counting bgs for the wave. Current system devalues t0 the moment wave ends. Change please

That’s what comes to mind for now

Keep up the good work ❤️

Some obvious stuff, like listed above, esp. mega's sharing. Promo should have counted towards 3 bought/opened disks instead of 1 point, equal to a reg. standard, and have bigger stretch goals for rewards, like an exclusive illuvitar if buy 100 promo disks (no need to get dups of those emotes 😉
My constant drone on having a bell shaped acc. drop on a disk instead of a landslide of clown noses. Clearing up the offer/sold mechanism on the illuvidex (maybe a one month max listing time then automatically offers cleared off) as well as listing names working (ace good example).
Still think we need a better distribution of rewards so not quite so top heavy. Giving incentive to new players or second accounts (eg trading accounts that holds dups till sell).
Support to outside players that are developing beyond games-give them some disks, etc. to use as rewards. And yeah people love those disk opening games too.
Overall you all have done an amazing job with Beyond with a limited budget and staff, and the quality shows through all parts of the ecosystem; now we just need some more players, so when the time is right a push on marketing would be great.

I thought distribution was fine, if not lacking a bit. If ur gonna invest that much to get first, you better be rewarded for it

ps also think we have to have a burn mechanism to clean up all the crap in here but the reward has to be a beyond reward, eg special illuvitar, as not everyone plays arena, etc. fuel of course would be fine

here's some points from me:

  • Change D1sks Fuel price to a round number instead of 999.
  • Add a pity counter for holos like in ADRs.
  • Add the collection completion bonuses for the current wave leaderboard like we have for the legacy leaderboard.
  • Add a tab in the current wave leaderboard showing the end of wave exclusive illuvitar rewads.
  • Remove the separate T0 collection for the current wave. The T0 collection has too much weight in regards to the current wave points and ends up taking away the focus from the actual wave. Me personally I preferred it the way it was before. Not to mention this forces players to keep bonding repeated T0 illuvitars which tbh feels bad.

yeah, zeros made no sense as separate other than the three new bg in album as we had before..it made all T0's drop, as the wave 4 will now

#

The only positive I see about wave t0 is that it allows new players to fill t0 collection meaningfully and carry over to legacy

#

So in that regard... not sure if removing is best... but rather have legacy t0 AND wave t0

#

why the hmm? @short roost

#

I know one newer player this wave for sure benefitted from pushing wave t0 collection and will carry over to their legacy now. It is not a bad set up for new players. but it is terrible for legacy ppl.

All waves should give the same t0’s, so new or old players can still compete with newer or older illuvitars

But legacy ppl would get fked for it

# olive sun that's another solution yep... but going to be a lot harder for new players sinc...

As long as every wave of T0s has a cosmetic tied to it, it would work. No need to have them grant points.

Maybe something that has 5 levels of power. Every wave you participate and finish all 25 or 75 (depending on whether we want expressions to cound.
Could be "simple" like the Dojo background but every statue is locked behind a wave of T0s. So if you have all 5 waves, all the statues are unlocked.

And because T0s are so abundant it shouldnt be very costly.

Can we have some kind of burn mechanism to get the Fuel ?

#

Can we have T0s with each wave specific bg as separate T0 collection counted towards legacy LB? @arctic spruce

fallen shuttle
#

And this way, we will have some value gained for T0s as players atleast need to have T0 collection from each wave for legacy LB.

Burn please… but for something sensible. Cosmetics, battle board, custom illuvitars… make it worthwhile but not wreck the system

Maybe burn for an accessory only disk

i would rather like to see something additional implemented with burning assets.
Like something you can get only if you burn an asset.
If you drop fuel or accessories or other stuff that exists already, and is sought after, it just decreases that value.
