AMA summary.png

@psyberx hosted the first Official Live AMA yesterday, hosted by @saltyreptile @bobthebuilder2 @dynamicrypto.

Things started a little shaky at the beginning with a few audio issues here and there but ended strong. It will only get better from here as they optimize and figure out the proper workflow as we move on.

Many great questions were asked during the live AMA session, I will post the questions in the text along with a timestamp so if you see any specific questions here you were curious about, you can simply click the timestamp in parenthesis.

Or feel free to watch the video in its entirety (Shoutouts to @dynamicrypto for hosting and piloting this thing!)

  • Can we see where the money goes? "See if you said they doing a land sale and it's gonna generate 2m$ and 20% gonna go to the dev team and 80% to marketing and advertising I would be cool But if that happened 95% would go to devs and an ad would be put together for some shite somewhere, It happens every time" (00:05:10)

  • You mentioned the lvling of your NFTs by using them in play. One of the things that keeps players engaged especially when starting a game is the unlocking and progression through levels etc. This is something I kind of miss in blockchain gaming as often lvling is tied to large sums of money instead of actually playing or the amount of time needed to make a micro bit of progression is huge. Could you elaborate a bit on this aspect and how psyberX will likely go about this? (00:07:55)

  • What is the team looking at for the amount for entry at the game? (00:10:05)

  • Every purchase and transaction in the app will and should be done in lvl right? (00:11:58)

  • How hard will it be to set up my own vending district - The PIMP District? (00:12:30)

  • Would it be possible to create a very small, carnival-like shooting game while people wait for the full game to be released? (00:13:40)

  • Will LVL tokens be stakable at some point? Or will there be swap pools? (00:15:24)

  • Can you expound upon the concept of the game, it'd be cool to hear the vision from the devs mouth vs. "Will be like fortnite with 50 v 50 combat" (00:16:08)

  • Question: why hive? Most Devs would rather develop on bigger chains like Solana and Ethereum, so why hive? (00:18:00)

  • most times when a player wants to sell his NFTs or perhaps a land, he lists it on the market and waits for an interested buyer to come for it. Will psyberX operate in a similar manner or will they offer an automatic market maker where players sell their NFTs easily (00:19:52)

  • what are the benefits of owning land if you are like me, not a developer or modder, just an average old man gamer lolol? (00:21:12)

  • I was wondering concerning the game, if you were to buy stuff like weapons or armor for your character, would they be primarily cosmetic or would the items be pay to win? (00:23:34)

  • are you open to integrating the alpha version with other tokens? If not, why? (00:24:55)

  • in terms of our controllable avatar what will be able to customize, I.E stats of strength or agility or will it just be cosmetic changes only (00:26:20)

  • Can different matches be held concurrently or one at a time as hosted? (00:28:10)

  • Will @psyberx have any cross-chain applications? How reliant is PsyberX on Tribal Dex? (00:28:53)

  • Is Psyberx a PVP battle kinda game? if yes, would there be a demo section to the Game where a player can prolly rehearse with an AI? If No, then what should one be expecting? (00:31:14)

  • Questions by @belemo (00:32:50)

  • In one of the official PsyberX's marketing Post, I read that the Land sales will begin by next week (I hope I am correct).
    If this is so, when a land is purchased, will the buyer have access to the land immediately? (Remember the game is still in its first phase)

    • If yes, can you state in CLEAR terms what the buyer can actually do with the land before the actual game is fully released?

    • If no, then when will the buyer have access to his/her purchased land? (00:36:56)

  • I understand it is still early in development, but what is a rough estimate for a playable game to the general public? (00:38:20)

  • when we build a character, can we sell the character themselves all armored up? Or just individual pieces or once you get a character are you stuck with it or? (00:41:00)

  • Questions from @jim-crypto (00:42:10)

  • Would it be available on mobile? 🤔 (00:43:03)

  • Can other tokens be added to the antes or pots on top of LVL? (00:48:07)

  • When you get killed in the game do you lose your stuff? (00:49:20)

  • Is the game hosted on a large server? Remember Splinterlands had months of crashes when the flood of new players joined the market. How have you planned for scalability? (00:50:00)

  • QUESTION: Since it is a Massive Multiplayer Online game, can you or your land be attacked by other players in your absence (00:52:44)

  • Will there be a limit as to what we can sell in our kiosks? Say I wanted to sell some dCity cards or something from NFT Showroom, will things like that be incorporated? (00:54:20)

  • Will there be kill streak bonuses like Recon, and stuff like that? Will I lose my kill streak bonus if I'm offline and get looted? (1:01:35)

  • Do we have any other characters besides Gigas? (01:03:57)

  • First Person View vs Third Person View (01:04:43)

  • Will there be fun Easter eggs in-game (01:06:33)

  • Question: Will it be easy for non-crypto people to sign up and play? I first played Splinterlands with f all my knowledge of Crypto and managed to sign up with my credit card. Those 100s of millions of gamers in the world should be able to get in easily. Even a wallet sign-up can turn people off the game. (01:07:40)

  • Question: Any plans for VR capabilities and Haptics? (01:09:20)

  • question: I'm a big believer that psyber x will be a great success, are there plans to build off that success to develop other games, like say a "starting from nothing" survival game? (01:10:00)

  • Can you please tell us what we can get in these NFT packs being sold? The 100 HBD packs (01:12:40)

  • Will headshots be a thing? (01:13:01)

LAND UPDATE

We will be introducing a limited number of plots for now. There will be commercial plots, with details on those to come later. Should further expansion be necessary, we’ll open the ability to create more, but for now, the land we’re offering, it will be considered the “prime” real estate in-game.

Sort:  

I'm very excited for all of this but I have to wonder how all this just seems so easily possible for this team while no one else has been able to build something like this out. A whole world where you can basically just do anything you want in real time in a complex economy where millions of people and items can interact all at once is a lot.

It will all happen in stages, and will slowly develop over time.
It will take many years to see our complete vision, but there will be lots of content to keep everyone happy during that span of time.

Thank you VERY much for the breakdown of the AMA with your timestamps it's a huge help on saving some time.

A lot of good questions were answered on that AMA. I hope to be at the next one live.
