UPLAND - 5 Cities and counting!!

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.
