UPLAND - 5 Cities and counting!!

Picture
For virtual Land enthusiasts, time to get ready and GO!!
Starting this coming Tuesday at 9am PST, the city of Brooklyn will open its first wave for purchase. Second wave 9pm PST supporting different time zones.

Basically the amount of areas available for purchase will be split in two, one half locked until the second wave release. Including locked properties reserved for FSA players or locked properties set aside for game development strategies.

There are over 7 collections released for Brooklyn. Such as Crown Heights and Dumbo Collections. Ranging from the least to most expensive, offering low to high UPX boosts respectively.
The rush to buy land associated to collections will likely be the main focus for many players. Which makes sense - as collections are one of the best ways to boost your UPX earnings.


The Race!!
If you remember from previous articles or videos, to move around the city to a specific location you will need to send your explorer (avatar) to any owned/minted property. Brooklyn like other releases starts off blank. This means there are no minted (owned) properties to send your explorer to. It will be a method of follow the leader as areas start to be minted allowing for more movement and buying opportunities. 

​So this will be interesting. With a huge jump of new players in recent days properties will be seized up in no time.

The FSA fix.
Another challenge is the adjustment to FSA (Fair Start Act), this is the Act to help new players adapt to the game mechanics restricting higher tier players from grabbing up properties en mass. With this new feature it created a secondary market. FSA eligible players were able to buy and flip at a rapid rate. This was a good in the beginning, however it still ended up creating limited/low supply. 

The correction to this, there is a limit and delay on how many properties a FSA player can sell and how often has been implemented.
The adjustment: FSA players can only sell 2 properties per 1 calendar week. Essentially selling 2 properties every week (7 days).

This release will require some coordination, collaboration and teamwork with fellow players if the goal is to purchase any ‘specific’ location. 

Lastly
In all the excitement that comes with this release there is one more - Manhattan will soon have their own treasure hunts. This is good news. Players can now focus on a city of choice with the opportunity to participate in Treasure Hunts and earn more UPX.

If you haven’t realized it yet —  Upland’s future is very bright!
Hope to see your explorer in Upland.

READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!?!

Picture
It’s that time of year again. 
 
Tomorrow Sunday February 7, 2021 the Super Bowl, National Football League’s annual championship game
will be hosted in Tampa Bay, Florida between Kansas City Chiefs and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
 
Often this event is met with huge public energy, from tailgate parties, half time commercials and entertainment to restaurant group reservations.
Ranging from die-hard football fans (American Football not European Football) to those riding the bandwagon of game frenzy.
It has been the undeniably most viewed
American sports event year after year. Helping to boost sales in for many businesses that are often
slow during this time of year.

What does this have to do with Blockchain Gaming?
 
Well as you know - the pandemic has put a stop or severe restrictions on large gatherings, celebrations, parties. The key elements, that have made the Super Bowl event so popular has almost seize to exist. 

​Don’t despair Upland has come to the rescue.
Tomorrow the City Champion game begins.
Complete with game formations and helmets to match including piñatas!
 
Each piñata found represents small helmet and chance to receive some in-game currency UPX.
Piñatas will then create random formations indicating the location of the large helmet. Large helmets will reveal themselves once they are discovered.
Each formation is on a timer and resets once the timer expires. 
 
Small helmets are worth 1-point, large helmets are worth 7 points. The city that accumulates the most points wins the Upland World Champion title.
 
Score updates will be provided after each wave in the Super Bowl game and final score provided after the Super Bowl is over.

Upland Kickoff: Tomorrow Sunday February 7 at 3:45pm PST, 6:45pm EST. 
 I will attempt to offer my none treasure hunt and none football skills to the occasion in support of Uplands game strategy.
Follow/Subscribe videos regarding blockchain games. And I will provide a recap to my likely disaster game play adventure. LOL
