Steem Monsters Battles Begin Tomorrow - A Revolution For Gaming Enters Steem
View this post on Hive: Steem Monsters Battles Begin Tomorrow - A Revolution For Gaming Enters Steem
I have moved all my content away from the now centralized and controlled Steem blockchain to the decentralized Hive blockchain.
I'm not ever sure they have low SP but rather 0 SP. I set up an account for my grandson yesterday and it has 0 SP.
Does this mean that new people joining the game will be forced to buy SP in order to play?
Won't that put people off?
Maybe that's normal in the gaming world. I've never been involved with something like this but I'd be pretty irritated if I bought a starter pack and then discovered that I couldn't play it.
how is this part going to work?
There are tons of games that have some sorts of payment forms. In fact the most successful games are free games with hidden payment mechanisms.
Steem Monsters will be entirely free and 0 SP accounts can do a minimum amount of games every day. If someone wants to play hundreds of games every day they are usually willing the spond money on the game, one way or another.
That makes sense @flauwy. 😁

Look for the two bars on the left. Underneath it'll tell you how many comments, posts and upvotes he could do in a day.
Do you know what playing a game is equivalent to though @mattclarke? Has anyone tested that out on the test server?
If a game last longer presumably it will cost more . . . just thinking aloud here. 😁
Don't know, sorry. I know the custom JSON operations are one of the more RC heavy transaction types. I'm guessing maybe the same as 5 comments? How many comments a day did it say he can do?
Well I did two from his account yesterday and despite recharging overnight his is still only at 49% RC.
It's not really a problem right now as he won't be playing yet but I was interested to see what the effect would be for someone joining just to play Steem Monsters.
Basically, it looks like they won't be able to play without buying some Steem.
In which case, I think that should be made clear when people sign up.
These are his figures after making 2 very short comments.
Enough credits for approximately:
1 comments (3 after recharge)
10 votes (21 after recharge)
11 transfers (23 after recharge)
100% recharged in 2 days
Mind you I did follow a few Steem Monsters people on his behalf. Maybe that takes RC too.
Follows do consume RC's although I don't know how many. They haven't given each activity an official price tag, since they still haven't settled on a permanent price for each. I'm sure the steemmonsters guys are looking at every option to make it as playable as possible.
The length of a game is certainly not a factor, as all games outcomes are decided the second the game starts (remember, it is all about pre-planning and then execute automatically). There is one entry to the Steem blockchain per game, I think this entry always costs the same amount of RC.
I have tested that and the cost for one game was 285,405,387 RC for me.
That's interesting @flauwy. When I get to play I'll have a look and see how much it costs me. 😁
I’ve got my Beta starter pack and I’m ready to battle! Looking forward to seeing some new Steemians join the community through SteemMonsters. May your blades never dull!

how can I play?
when I get to my account on https://steemmonsters.com/# I see my collection but nowhere to play
when I login to https://sm.mrosen.com/# I only have the base cards and cannot see or use my collection
and battle! doesn't work (neither practice nor rank), I cannot see/choose any cards there
also with the RCs (other comments) would be terrible but anyway
besides, I just checked.
the problem I had which I articulated in my post is resolved :). what I wanted to do did work now :).
