Greetings, eXode pilots and civilians! I'm eager to make this write-up sharing what my very own planet I discovered will be like. While I do believe my planet will be beautiful (in its own way), it most certainly will not look like the picturesque scene above.
My planet is mostly a dark, cold, ice world though it does have a jungle but it is cold as well. PRIMSCAN revealed that my landing sites will be very difficult to get to, with the easiest one being "DIFFICULT" at best. I would like to land in the Alpha Region, the Icelands of Pol, because it has the best comfort however that might be impossible.
In reality my planetary landing site might look like this other artwork from the game. With the extremely rough landing that might be what my ship will look like too.
The next scan I performed was the CFR or "Colonization for Research". Here are the results:
Eight flora and four fauna! Pretty good for a planet whose "life conditions seem terrible" (I think that refers to human life though). I've heard that numbers above 4 are good so I'm happy. It's a good thing I brought a preservation dome, my animal handler, and some life support! It will be great fun trying to discover them all.
Next is the profit scan. And let me just say first, I think this will be a very lucrative venture!
Tada! Sixteen unique ores! A nice, round number! I just can't remember if I packed a drill to mine those ores with. It won't be like mining trilium, I'll tell you that!
Scans also revealed that my planet contains 3 minerals! I'm guessing ores have to be mined or otherwise extracted and minerals can be found and collected by hand. Then both of these probably have to be further refined into a usable product. Very exciting! I'm glad I sent out another EVAC this time with the scientific faction instead of the secret agent. Pardon my French (no pun intended @elindos) but we're going to research the hyperdrive out of this planet!
The results of the habitability scans are not available yet but it will reveal more about comfort, danger, and (!) seasons. Also soon to be released is the planetary map!
I think this is all very important, especially since the developer, elindos, says they are all your planetary "secrets"! So normally, they wouldn't be viewable until discovered is what he means, I think. or at least some time in the future. What was clear was that this data will be hidden from us again so this post will sort of work as a reference, almost like an encyclopedia for my personal planet but also as a checklist!
It is still not too late to discover your own NFT planet (which will regularly mint new NFTs for you as well in the future). More information on eXode can be found in the game's manifesto. Use this link or enter this code: de7ed45 when buying your starter pack and you'll receive a free gift for becoming an eXode pilot!
In other news, I just opened my daily booster pack and these were 2 of the 5 cards inside!
The rest were commons but I'm psyched about these 2! Tyron is apparently a better than pilot than Oksana. I almost made a trade yesterday for a Tyron too! The Signals specialists is of elite quality, which would be analogous to the gold foil versions of cards for Splinterlands. Elite eXode cards, however, get added abilities and traits and sometimes story or rewards that the base cards just don't have.
Well that's all from me today. Hope you like the game and decide to support it!
I put both pilots in my deck, Tyrone and Oksana. Oksana has 'planetary', assumably good for planet exploration. Since I have 2 pilots, I put 2 vehicles in my deck. I can use both these to explore and move items.
That's actually a pretty good strategy! And all tis time I've been thinking of it as one or the other. Also, if something happens to your main pilot during colonization, you still have another that can fly the ship during deep space exploration!
I had a good laugh reading this article, you will have a tough time starting this colony! But that can make for some good stories I guess! Congratulations to the elite card as well! 😂
Thank you, thank you haha. I can't wait to share stories and hear those of other captains as well!
It's really amazing to have 16 types of ore!, it's the highest number of resources that i've seen so far, that being said I would have some doubts about choosing this planet actually. First the landing place is a butthurt and the area most accesible has low temperatures and comfort, if you're going to keep the planet better go well prepared to defend that crew, scientist are fragile at combat and who knows what the hell is an Aniavipax 😅 doesn't sound good.
Haha "scientists are fragile". I don't want to switch planets now but maybe I'll be kicking myself later! I'm quite pleased with it though. Except for the landing and comfort. I fear if I reroll everything I wouldn't be so happy.
Sure the place is full of promises in the form of ore and minerals!. Go scientists then captain, will follow your proggress in the game as is one of my favourtite factions.
Me too. The science faction has intrigued me from the very beginning. I can't wait to discover more about the geneticians though!
Wow, 16!?!?
Ive considered myself lucky when i get 4!
Yeah! It'll be fun trying to find all those!
