Holybread - Performance Increases / Hive-Signer Fixed!

in #gaming4 years ago

Greetings Everyone!

Well we have been on Hive for 48 hours now.
It has been exciting as many things worked perfectly, however a big issue for many players was Hive-Signer was not working.

After many hours we finally have this fixed. You can play on your mobile devices again. (You may have to refresh your cache)

Performance
Players have brought to our attention that on mobile and slow internet they were having performance issues. Our 1st round of improving this was reducing the size of background images throughout the game. This rolled out at 12:00am on 5/18/2020 and we have seen a big drop in response time and web errors on our servers.

Players should see an improvement. We have also identified a few errors in the code we can clean-up to improve things even more.

Now that things are stable we are able to make these type of adjustments.

Artwork
You will be seeing artwork upgrades throughout the day today. This is not all the new artwork.
We are moving to a more traditional item model of common, uncommon, rare, etc.. item structure.
The current items in the game are either common or epic. So the new artwork you are seeing is only for those items.

Plus skins are coming for items!

Arena Rewards
I know everyone wants to see the new Arena Rewards. I don't have the math worked out yet, but the bot will run every 3 hours and see what your ranking in the Arena is. At that time you will be given a number of rshares
when you post or comment an amount of these rshares will be used to upvote you.
So the longer you stay in the top ranks the bigger your upvote.

That is the basic summary. Once the bot is done. I will post more info.

Quick summary of what is coming this week:

Our Hive migration team is now building our new server that will be hosting SEASONS!
Here on the main game (now to be called: OPEN WORLD) the new artwork will finally be uploaded!
The rest of the team is continuing work on the Item refresh (including SETS), LORE, Arena Reward Blockchain payout bot.
(Tomorrow's post will be about how the Arena Rewards will work)

As always thanks for playing!
SMASH the upvote to help fund development!
TIP us on BRAVE browser or PEAKD!
We love to get BEER & BRO Tokens in the comments!

Sort:  

I guess there will be some daily limit of upvotes, right?

Daily yes.
Example: Player 1 rank 3
Player 2 rank 4
Both upvotes are worth X
They should earn the same amount X if Player 1 posts daily and Player 2 posts weekly

Hope to see details and example in next post)

Working on it
