View Full Version : New Currency - Read more here!

Well, as has been known for a long time now, we've been aiming to get a currency for future plans, so I'm releasing info about the currency, what it'll do, how it'll work, etc etc.

So, lets talk money then!

First off, the name by seemingly popular demand will be Cubes. May as well continue the disfunctional trend of having random names for random things. So Cubes will be the name, I'll get an art style for it eventually.

How the currency itself will work.

You will recieve X amount varying per gamemode. E.g. Deathrun you'll get x for killing death, and Death will get a significantly reduced amount for winning (Lets be honest, only 30% of runs are successful, and thats just the run itself). Platinum will recieve an extra 40%-60% also.

For deathmatch based gamemodes, it'll work on a per kill basis, and on a round win basis (If it's team based). The values for these haven't been finalised, so don't speculate on what prices will be. The sort of things we'll be offering for Cubes are:



Hats
Body Aura's
Overlays
Classes/weapons in certain Deathmatch Gamemodes
Anything else we add to the store

I'll add a major note here now.

Any Platinum benefits will not be available ever in the shop. This applies to custom models, trails, extra HP etc.

Achivements will not give any Cubes, these are for bragging rights. Any questions?

Oh, and you can't buy any Cubes before you ask. We're not going to sell(out).

Sounds great to me. I spy no flaws in this paragraph.

extreme crayon death match

we all get crayon sweps and we draw things (like a box, triangle, sword) and use them to fight(they get textured and stuck into your hand, note if needed they are resized, essentially they are lua thingys)

its similar to prop dm only each crayon has cool powers, like weight, fire, etc and that you actually hold your custom prop in hand. I still think we should call it minge wars, or kindergarten gone bad

No... They can. With a runescape style trade menu with double confirmation. That way I can buy my full dragon by tomz

I talked with Teddi a week ago and he said no trading for obvious reasons.

The 3 has shown BB the light, any thing cubed is of the 3
ex. 3³=3 CUBED=333

does lua even have support for bigint?

Whitefang

Lua can do anything.

Lua is magic. Slow, inefficient magic.

Dan
01-10-2009, 10:40 PM
we can create or own big int with a loop that combines infinite amounts of integers......

we are limited only by our own patience
