Topic: [ANN] RageCore.com - [Game] - Core Prize: 0.028 BTC (Read 3797 times)

Hey Guys,

New round just started!

GL!

Ok I have been able now to make metal droids.

rz20,

Please follow the startup guide (Toolbox -> Startup Guide).. It will guide you step by step for someone new to show them how to scan for more astroids, and get your planet going.


What DeViL303 mentioned (Quoted Below) is another way to do it... He has experience and played the last round. The guide is just to show you the basics, but you are free to try other strategies.

You cant create more roids from that page, you can only initialize them on that page, really you should not have initiated your first 3 roids to only crystal, when I played I initiated 1 metal, 1 crystal and 1 eonium, anyway for now, to gain more roids you have 2 options:

1. From the Waves page, you can create asteroid scans, then you can scan nearby sectors for uninitiated roids, (its possible you will need to do some research/construction before you can create asteroid scans)

2. Build astropods and a supporting fleet, and use it to attack other players to steal their roids.

This early into the game you would probably be better off doing some scans, as you wont be able to create much of a fleet with only 3 crystal roids.  Good luck!

From every payment to the game 55% goes to the Rage Bonus, and 20% goes towards the Core Prize.

You can do the math on what I take (I also use to pay for transaction fee's for the winners, etc)


There are two parts to it:

1. The Core Prize is going to take skill and time to strategize to be #1.
2. Rage Bonus is pretty much chance on when you join.

It is a game like ogame.


Just one question, In this window how can I create more asteroids?

Trying to figure out this game - what is it based on?  Chance or skill?  If skill, is it a strategy game or is it based on clicking/pressing keys faster than someone else?

A quick question, does the rage bonus extra money all go to you?  Also I mean how much do you make on this game?


By my calculations there should be roughly .07 in the core prize fund and there is only .028.

Are you taking roughly 70% of the money for yourself and 30% is given to the winner?

Are you sure? It's still not too late 

Im gonna stay out of this round, got a busy weekend coming up, but I have my free entry voucher for coming third in round 1, so ill be back for round 3 for sure. May the best player win.    

If anyone is having problems after paying, please shoot me a PM and I'll get you up and running.

I pushed this along, and your account is good to go! Enjoy the game!


Thank you for notifying me of this. I am getting it resolved ASAP.

My account is not confirming I sent the op a pm.

It just was confirmed.

No.

I've received both the cote price and rage bonus, thanks
With the free round, do they still get a rage bonus?  And st place should get it ad well! jks... But maybe a bit more BTC? The feeis huge!

That's great, nice one!

Nothing has changed as far as Rage Bonus or Core Prize.

The only thing that has changed is 2nd and 3rd place winners get a free round.

So has anything changed for round 2 as far as money goes?  Rage and core bonus still available?

Sure!

2nd and 3rd place winner will receive a voucher to use in future rounds.


How to use it?
It's easy. Before you pay, you will see that you have a round voucher here. Click on that and you are ready to play.



Enjoy!

In round 1 we gave away a total of .2 BTC!

Round 2 is about to start as the final battle for round 1 core prize is taking place.

Please register (if you have not already) and prepare for round 2.

Last round stats:
Rage Bonus: .144 BTC
Core Prize: .056 BTC

Once the round ends, you will be able to see the winner of the core prize in the hall of fame:

I agree , there needs to be some incentive for players to join late, I had an idea that player could join on the last day for 15% fee or something like that? that way they can get some practice in for next round cheaply, and also it would bump up the Core prize a little bit on the last day?



That's great about 2nd and third prizes , I wonder could it be set up so that 2nd and 3rd place get some kind of "free entry credit" instead of automatic entry into next round, I mean so that it doesn't need to be used on the very next round,  cos top players might want to take a break in between rounds.


Im not too bothered about lowering the entry fee as it makes the core prize grow quicker @ 0.01, but if it would suit more people , how about something like halving the entry fee to 0.005btc, I think 0.001 would be too low to ever get any kind of decent core prize, I want to see the core prize get to 1BTC soon!  I think removing the Rage Bonus is a good idea, and I think it would be cool to put a higher % of the fee into the core prize.

I also like the idea No.1 alliance prize, not so sure about No.1 Galaxy prize, as the player has no control over which other players are in their galaxy, so it would just be kind of random prize?  

I watched a player in just a few days go from the smallest to #6... He's got a chance to win the core prize even though he's started 50% into the round.

It's true, the longer you wait to join the round, your chances do go down to winning, however even after joining 50% late you can do a few things that can give you an advantage.

At the rate of players signing up to play, you most likely will NOT get the Rage Bonus.

Here's a few points you can take into considerations for this round. Otherwise, there's always round 2 that starts in a few day's 

1.
You can practice for round #2, so when it starts, you know exactly what you'd need to do.

2.
The top 5 players are currently constantly under attack, there are over a dozen different strategy's that could be used to get into the top 3 even after 50% of the round is over.

yes, free rolls is must. waiting for that can't send 10mbtc just like that.

I've been interested in playing this game....However, I have no idea what its like and if I will be good or not.

Also- It seems like it is a game where the more you play the higher your score will be, so what incentive do people have to join late during the week? 

.01 does seem a bit much...heck I would really like to try it out but I don't want to get in now because I feel I would just lose the .01....

I'm glad you are having fun playing ragecore!

We are more than 50% through this first round and have so far given away .144 BTC in Bonuses!

I promised something for the 2nd and 3rd place winner, and I've posted it in the OP. After much thought, 2nd and 3rd place players will be added automatically into the next round without having to pay. However, because there was no payment, they will not be eligible for the core prize. From many messages (Thanks for everyone's input) from players in the game that there should be more prizes for players in the game so I will be doing a poll on what we should be doing for Round 3 and going forward.

Any input is appreciated and will be considered.


Please feel free to say what you think and give your input:

1. Remove the Rage Bonus.

This will allow an extra 55% to give away to the #1 alliance, and #1 galaxy.


2. Lower the entry price.

I've had one or two people say that 0.01 is too much, and should be 0.001 - 0.002.

Currently, 2 people is a large % of players currently playing, so I am taking this into consideration but want to see if anyone else feel's the same.

Im spending way too much time on Ragecore, its really addictive!

Im winning now, sweet,  But im sure once allen20008 wakes up ill be losing again. its ok though,  I already got the rage bonus so im up 20% even if I lose!

Ill be happy if I can get 3rd.  I am a little worried about Viper, hes catching up quick

sweets hope i can ranking 2nd or 3rd..
its oke if u 2nd @Devil..  

Sweet! (and im not just saying that cos im in 2nd place )

I am working on a 2nd and 3rd place prize for winners now.

I will be announcing the details in the OP within the next few days. Stay tuned. 

Looks interesting,i will try this out.

gogodr suggested (above) a video demonstration for a visual overview of the game, and I am currently working on that.

You should add a demo to the game so you can try it out for free first?

The Core prize is reaching nearly .04 BTC!


Good luck to everyone!

oi , BitBerau , I see you scanning me, im onto you!    

Ive already got over 1,000,000 ships so don't even bother!!

ATTACK , 1250 ships sent at allen20008!! Good luck guys!

Edit: Dam, they got massacred.

oh well, still got 998,750 ships left! 

Join

EDIT : Status     UNTRUSTED
We sent 88 ships to attack allen20008 (1:5:2). They will arrive in 9 ticks.

Dont Hate Me

@monbox i cant scan because u block me..

Yeah, I would love an in game chat on the side!

Also, people, join my alliance!

Name: The Immortals
Secret: a71adf43

Very good suggestions! I'm excited just thinking about it!




There is a forum, private message, and alliance form for communications, however a global chat is a great suggestion, I'll work on getting one.

Yes.

Thanks for the suggestion! I will work on this.


If it's too expensive, it can be adjusted. As it currently stands at little over $5 USD. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll consider this, I just did not want to make it too low where people might be tempted to create multiple accounts.


There was a small closed beta with people willing to send BTC for testing transactions, and the game. I am always open to feedback beta or not.



I'm not excepting anyone to. Trust is earned.

Yep!  Or like a certain location where the players can travel to which is like free for all PVP, where people can just loot each other (with rules of course!) and go crazy.   Is there a chat somewhere on the site so we can communicate easier?

Build ALLIANCE guys.. make it bigger alliance 

Please dont fight with me cor 1:4:2 

My ears are wide open. Maybe a battling station, where two players (or two alliances) can put BTC into a pot and winner takes it?

Alright, well that seems cool enough.  You should have an in game way to make money, like by trading or looting other players!  That would be epic...  Currently, is it only early registeration OR being the number 1 player that earns you money?  That's a bit boring, more ways of earning would be better!

Its like one of those text based space war games right?
I think there was one called Ogame.

Problems:
- Not enough documentation.
- Too expensive for a game like this. (I'm guessing it is a 0.01BTC payment each round right? )
- No beta testing feedback.

Not many people are comfortable spending money blindly

Absolutely not. The intention of the Rage Bonus is to reward the early players of each round and to deter people from creating multiple accounts.

Ok, so admin account does not count, does it?
Alright, but you didn't answer my other question... is this just a modified ponzi???

No, Admin account is just to help moderate is all.

Reserved.

Waiting!  

Edit:  Wait... is it just a ponzi scheme?
Edit2:  Wait...  the admin is playing? 

starts in 10 minutes.
an instructional video and better graphics would make this a lot more appealing.
Looks promising tho.

This should be in project development and not in Services tho.

This is awesome !
That game looks very promising !

I can't wait for the first round to start in one hour

How the game works
This game is a round or better tick based tactical/strategical war game in a SciFi environment.

Major goal (besides having fun) is to reach rank #1 in universe ranking to win the core prize. To achieve this you need score which is in turn a result of spending resources (named: metal, crystal or eonium) into Spaceships and similar more or less military equipment.

Resources are mined on initialized Asteroids floating around your planet. These asteroids may be found in deep space by using appropriate scans or by attacking other planets in the universe using Astropods, a specialized ship for transporting asteroids to your home planet. To support your astropods you could (and should) send other ships along to destroy or distract enemy forces.

The different types of implemented ships are divided in several classes which can attack (or stun using EMP) a distinct class of ships. To build these ships you have to research the appropriate knowledge and construct some industrial production place.
To be able to plan better and more effective attacks you can research and build scans giving you different information about potential targets.

In the case you want to defend from attacks, you may build a planet defense system (PDS) or a big fleet to defeat any attacker.

Planets are grouped together in galaxies (and may not attack each other) which in turn are grouped into clusters forming the universe.

The price to play is: 0.01 BTC.

---

Each round is a week long, and the ticks are every minute. (For example, when you read that it takes 8 ticks to build a wave amplifier that means it will take 8 minutes.)

Rage Bonus:
The players who sign up early get paid back 1.2x their payment to the game.
