MegaWorld introduced the ability to create custom buildings a few weeks ago. Now they prepare to launch the next phase, letting owners of custom buildings mint and tokenize Units, designated sections of a customized plot, as NFTs. Scheduled to open on June 29th, Unit minting heralds the beginning of a new era for MegaWorld. One in which avatars roam the world, completing quests, earning coins, and needing a place to sleep!

What are Units?

Units in MegaWorld are an important part of custom buildings. Custom plots can have multiple Units on it defined by the builder, each of which can be minted as a separate NFT and sold or rented for other players! Potential uses include homes, businesses, storage, and crafting shops! Builders can even create multiple floors! Customizing isn’t free though. Builders need to spend a large number of resources to make plot customizations.

These Units can be used as in-game shops or destinations, but their most important feature involves the upcoming ‘MegaWorld Express Delivery’. This update will feature an integrated quest system for players to complete with their in-game avatars. In turn, finishing these quests gives the associated building a production boost. With all of thise work, character avatars will need a place to rest and recuperate, thus introducing the use case for Units as apartments.

What is MegaWorld?

MegaWorld is a virtual city and economic simulation resembling a modern city with streets, buildings, cars, etc. In this game, players can own Citizens, Pets, Land Plots, and even whole Districts. The basic game features players walking (or driving) around the city, completing tasks, and earning MEGA tokens. The game will be free to play, though completing certain tasks may require owning a Citizen NFT.

For those who wish to be more invested, plot ownership allows players to create a variety of buildings from homes, to offices, to factories. Players can even choose to create a custom building on their plot. Buildings earn income in various ways, though they also require upkeep and have a chance to be hit by natural disasters. Players create most of the in-game items, including new Citizens.

Mega World has built out a complex economy with three cities across three interconnected blockchains — Ethereum, Tron, and Binance Chain.

MegaWorld released their third city earlier this year. This latest one living on the Binance Chain. Their plan all along was to introduce cross-chain dependencies between the three connected networks (Binance Chain, Tron, and Ethereum), and now that feature is live with the introduction of Paper.

Paper is a vital resource because without it, Offices won’t generate their passive income. Most Office owners probably won’t want that income interrupted! And though they don’t have to make the Paper themselves, someone does. But creating Paper requires Mixes from Tron, and Composite from Binance Chain, and assembly on Ethereum, making the whole process into an interconnected economy.

Another change to Offices is that they will now check every hour for passive income earnings, forcing owners to keep their Citizens stationed in the Offices to earn. Apparently there were some shenanigans with players switching Citizens around to time the daily earnings and then also use the Citizens elsewhere. This should put a stop to that!

But it’s not all bad news for Office owners. A new interface will provide more details about each Office’s share and earnings. And in addition, Citizens stationed in Offices now lose less Stamina per production cycle. They must have added some comfy chairs!

Alpha and Building Customization

Starting on April 20th, plot owners will be able to combine adjacent land plots, creating larger tracts of land for easier trading or for constructing larger, custom buildings. Players can already begin designing their own custom building at http://builder.megaworld.io/ . And though these custom creations cannot be deployed yet, that feature is expected to arrive in May.

Custom buildings have an interesting feature known as Units. Each custom plot can have multiple Units on it defined by the builder, each of which can be minted as a separate NFT and sold or rented for other players! Potential uses include homes, businesses, storage, and crafting shops! Builders can even create multiple floors! Of course, the costs in resources required for construction increase with complexity, but the customization abilities are already extensive, even in this early version.

And then, later in the year will the MegaWorld Alpha. The alpha will bring additional features to the Citizen avatars in the game. There will be quests to earn MEGA tokens, tied to buildings. And the buildings will all need these quests completed in order to produce resources!

Units from custom plots will be a critical part of the Avatar and Mission portion of the gameplay. Players will need to own a Unit before they can withdraw any MEGA earned from Missions. They will also serve as respawn points when entering the game. So there could be a market for that high-rise apartment building!

The post MegaWorld Implements Cross-Chain Dependencies appeared first on Play to Earn.

Mega World recently sold land plots in a new city on Binance Chain. Now they prepare to open up construction in the city on February 15th. Along with this construction comes three new buildings and a pack sale on Binance Chain.

Binance Chain Construction

Players can begin constructing buildings and playing in the new city on Binance Chain on February 15th. This opening also brings three new buildings to Mega World, including one that is unique to the Binance Chain! All three blockchains will be able to construct Paper Factories and Chemical Plants. Only plot owners on the Binance Chain can build Plastic Factories.

To encourage cross-chain trades, construction of higher-level buildings will require complex materials from each of the three blockchains.

A new dependency is introduced as well. Offices normally receive passive income from their districts, but they will now need Paper in order to collect their MEGA income.

Airports to Binance Chain will open at the same time as construction. For the price of a ticket in $MEGA tokens, players can move Citizens and materials between all three cities. Ticket costs are based on the type and amount of Citizens or goods being transported.

BNB Starter Pack Sales

To help players get started in the new city without having to transport materials from other cities, Mega World will open up a limited pack sale on February 2nd. These BNB Starter Packs include the last of the Generation A Citizens.

Packs come in three varieties, Local, Mayor, and Federal. There will be 1000 Local packs, each one containing one Gen A Citizen as well as a few resources and compounds or basic materials. Mayor packs also include a Pet as well as more resources and rarer materials. The Gen A Citizen in Mayor packs are guaranteed to be at least Professional quality. The Federal packs also include a Car (with a 1/20 chance for a Supercar), even more resources and materials, and the Citizen will be at least Executive level. There will be 800 Mayor packs and 400 Federal packs available.

Five of the supercars in the packs will be Majestic level. Majestic level cards cannot be created by players, so these will be extra special! The other 15 Supercars will be Armageddon level, in a color that is normally unavailable in game.

Prices for these starter packs have not yet been revealed.

The post MegaWorld Construction Opens on Binance Chain appeared first on Play to Earn.

Coming soon — Mega World on Binance Chain! And while the MCP3D game already exists on both the Ethereum and Tron networks, the larger Mega World is still in development.

This expansion to Binance Chain is an opportunity for those who like to pioneer, as there will almost certainly be openings to flip high demand land plots or make a few coins selling resources to early builders. But how long that gold rush period lasts remains to be seen. Linking multiple blockchains inside of your game is a pretty cool feature. However, Mega World already has pretty low activity, with large sections of undeveloped land. A whole new city of land plots may not be what the game really needs.

But, they’ve already set a precedent where each newly integrated chain gets its own city, so it makes sense to continue following that pattern. Each city also has one specific Resource that only they can produce (Steel on Ethereum and Concrete on Tron). So I would guess that the Binance Chain city will also have something similar.

On December 10th, Mega World will release a demo of the Binance Chain World Map, which includes a demonstration of customizeable buildings. The team expects to open up the first Binance Chain land plots on December 15th.

Mega Bridge

And while expanding to a new chain seems like big news, the really big news for Mega World is the completion of a new bridge between their Ethereum and Tron cities, allowing players to transfer MEGA tokens in-between chains. This bridge will also expand later to let players move Resources and Citizens between chains as well. But, the immediate effect is that players have one game wallet for MEGA tokens, and can pull them from the game to either blockchain. Players can now also use MEGA tokens in orders on the in-game marketplace.

MEGA token has an equal supply of tokens on both networks. When a player transfers MEGA between networks, the contract from the sending blockchain knows to lock up the corresponding amount of tokens on their side. And then unlock them when tokens come back to the chain. This keeps the overall supply stable while allowing players to use MEGA on both networks.

MEGA Governance

Aside from being a central game currency for exchanging goods, MEGA was also created as a governance token. Mega World hopes to implement the first stages of this in the near future.

It begins with a Mayor. Mayors are elected twice a year, and required to hold 1% of the MEGA supply frozen in their wallet for their term. Only Mayors and the Mega World team will be able to submit proposals for community voting.

Both the Mayoral election and proposal voting will use MEGA token. The Mayor will have a special office in the Town Hall, and a unique outfit for their Citizen.

The goal is to have a connected series of living cities populated, built, and governed by the players.

What is the MEGA Bridge?

The MEGA Bridge will allow players to transfer their TRON balance to Ethereum and vice versa and withdraw their balance as a TRC-20 or ERC-20 tokens. 

Mega World runs on both Ethereum and TRON blockchains. The MEGA Bridge will allow zero-fee transfers between in-game accounts and the bridge will be using the Polygon layer 2 network. During the transfer of tokens, the overall supply of MEGA tokens will be constant as no token will be burned on minted. Instead, a certain amount of tokens will be locked on Ethereum, and the same amount will be released from the Bridge wallet on the TRON smart contract.

A MegaWorld ID is also introduced. Players have a single united balance, and a new TRC-20 contract will be deployed on the TRON Network for token verification on TronScan. Furthermore, the MEGA Bridge will help facilitate trading and the free transfer of resources and citizens between the chains. It will be the only way players can move Avatars from one part of the world to another in Mega World.

$MEGA Token and Allocation

The MEGA token is the official currency of Mega World. It will be used to create new avatars, collect taxes, produce resources, construct buildings, stake in districts, upgrade buildings, and much more. From September 7, 2022, all actions in MegaCryptoPolis require MEGA token. 

Players can buy MEGA tokens from the official website of MCP3D by using a MetaMask Wallet. Once the Bridge is implemented, the MEGA token will be used for trading assets in the game. In addition, players can set orders in ETH/TRX on the MEGA marketplace.

About 40% of the undistributed MEGA tokens are allocated for Liquidity and Listing. The remaining tokens are allocated to in-game funds, DEX Liquidity, team reserve, Bounty Campaign, retro airdrop, strategic partnerships, and player initiatives. Players across the Ethereum and TRON chains hold the distributed portion of the tokens.

Governance

The MEGA token holders can vote on governance decisions and decide the use of the MEGA Treasury allocated to “Player Initiatives” and “Strategic Partnerships.” Every six months, a Mayor will be selected through votes. A Mayor should have 1% of the MEGA frozen in their wallet during the governance period. 

The Mayor will be responsible for maintaining community proposals by sending 5-10 proposals for voting and selecting the important ones. A top office in the Town Hall will be there for the Mayor, and all his decisions will reflect the interest of the players and community.

Megacryptopolis, or MCP3D, is ready to emerge from it’s city-building simulation cocoon into a virtual world. The official release is slated for August 31st. But, on August 24th, 5pm UTC, Mega World releases Mega World Tour, a multiplayer tech demo that lets players experience Mega World and explore the city. This demo also includes a special test task. Players who complete the task receive an Alpha Ticket, providing early access to the official alpha launch.

Mega World Tour and MEGA Token Reboot

During the Tour, participants will get to experience new graphics and animations, redesigned vehicles, interact with other players, and use their Citizens as avatars. The Mega World Tour will also allow players to join, even if they don’t have a digital wallet! This last point is actually a pretty big deal and something that many other blockchain projects are aiming to achieve. Requiring players to set up a crypto wallet before playing a game has long been a major impediment to onboarding those who aren’t already familiar with blockchain technology.

One of the important aspects of Mega World is the reboot of the MEGA token. Though MEGA began as just a token to facilitate resource swapping, it will be the primary token in Mega World. All in-game actions (aside from plot and district purchases), will require MEGA tokens on both the ETH and TRX networks.

The new MEGA token launches on August 31st. Players will be able to swap out the old MEGA tokens for new ones at a 1 to 10 ratio (1 old token = 10 new tokens). Any staked balances or in-game MEGA will be automatically converted.

The Megacryptopolis game (MCP3D) will go into maintenance mode from August 24th through August 31st. During that time, all in-game processes will be halted. So no worries about buildings falling into decay or the city burning down due to natural disasters. Once the maintenance mode completes on the 31st, MCP3D will re-launch, with a new economic model centered around the MEGA token.

The players create most items in-game, including new Citizens.

The goal is to have a living city populated and built by the players. There are plenty of virtual worlds in various stages of release and development. But Mega World has a leg up in the fact that they already have an economic ecosystem and existing city as a foundation to build upon. Mega World release is planned for August 31st.

The post Final Preparations for MegaWorld Release appeared first on Play to Earn.

In its transition from Megacryptopolis, Mega World will offer free to play options. Players will not need to own land plots to participate. Instead, they can jump into the game with a free Citizen Avatar and perform daily missions for rewards! These missions will be available from most of the standard game buildings such as Office, Residential, Commercial, etc. Players walk inside the buildings to find the missions. And while basic buildings have default interiors, the owners will be able to customize a bit.

But for the Custom Building feature, Crafting is vital! Once Mega World goes live, plot owners will have the option of placing customizeable buildings on their plots rather than the standard buildings. Customized buildings don’t produce anything and don’t earn any income from the game. These are purely for the players to design, build, and create with. Inside a customizeable building are blocks, each of which can have its own access restrictions. So it could be an apartment building, a mall, a corporate office, or anything the players can imagine. And while the Blocks have windows and doors, you’ll probably want some decorations for the interiors! And that’s where crafting comes into play.

Mega World Crafting

Mega World breaks items into four categories — Loot, Consumables, Tools, and Objects. Loot encompasses random items that players find scattered around the map. These items are sometimes requested as part of a Mission, but they can also be combined to make better objects. Consumables are items such as food and drink. Use them to give your Avatar energy or a temporary stat boost. Tools are used for doing stuff and have limited lifespans.

But Objects are really the main goal. And though players may sometimes receive Objects as mission rewards, for the most part, they are crafted by players. In order to craft, players need a Workbench, resources, a Recipe, and a Citizen to do the crafting. Crafting takes time and consumes energy from the Citizen. And, of course, not all Workbenches are equal. The game starts with a basic Workbench in the main building, open to everyone. All other Workbenches must be player crafted, and then placed into a Customized Block before it can be used!

These advanced Workbenches are required for more complex item creation. And they each have a speciality, such as the Kitchen for food recipes, Wood working bench for furniture, Sewing Bench for clothes. You get the idea. Here is where players will make equippable items and clothing, as well as most of the in-game decorations for buildings. These Workbenches may also require certain skill levels to operate.

Initially, all items will be in-game only. But in some future release, players will have options for converting their items to tradeable NFTs. Presumably there will be an in-game market before then.

What is Mega World?

Originally known as MegaCryptoPolis, Mega World has set their sights higher than the multi-player, city management game they began as. Players own, construct, and improve houses, offices, and factories. Citizens work jobs, and factories produce resources, creating a basic, interconnected economy. The team is currently remaking the city into a virtual world, complete with 3D avatars, quests, and player-owned apartments that can be decorated. The game uses an internal wallet for most transactions. Mega World is playable in a web browser, desktop, or mobile. The game is available on both Polygon/Ethereum, and the Tron networks.

They recently released phase one of their new economy and converted Citizens into Avatars as they build up to the full release of their virtual world.

The post MegaWorld Crafting and Customization appeared first on Play to Earn.

Though we can’t actually inhabit our Avatar / Citizens in a 3D world yet, Mega World is moving in that direction. This latest release brings us the ability to see our Citizens in upgraded form, with more detailed looks. In addition, all Citizens now have a selection of traits. Mostly good, sometimes neutral, sometimes negative. These traits can be cosmetic, affecting the basic look of the Citizen. Or they can change how effective the character is at various game actions.

Citizen Traits

Every existing Citizen has been given a selection of Traits based on their generation. Gen A Citizens can have 10 traits, Gen B Citizens nine, and so on down the line. The Traits come in a wide variety, with some rarer than others. They are color coded based on rarity. Yellow for a negative trait, gray for common, blue for rare, pink for epic, and orange for legendary. The Traits each have their own effect, which can be seen by clicking on it. Some change the Citizen’s appearance, some affect productivity, and others alter quests or the Citizen’s stats.

Along with the updated Citizens comes a new breeding system as well, though it’s not active yet. Players pair Citizens of two different genders together in a Residential building. Then, with a payment of WORLD tokens and some time, a new Citizen will be created, inheriting its traits from the parents. There is also a small chance that the ‘child’ Citizen could end up with a rare or unique Trait. However, each succeeding generation has fewer maximum traits. This gives extra value to earlier generation Citizens as the more Trait slots the child has, the more chances for a special Trait to appear.

Profile Pictures and Citizen Appearance

The player can also choose any Citizen in their portfolio to create a profile picture. The player can turn the avatar as well as adjust the height and background of the photo and then save the image for use in a profile. It would be nice if this connected directly to the game and we could set our in-game profile picture with a mouse click. Hopefully, this functionality will come with a future update.

Citizens have base outfits, which can be affected by certain traits, such as Elegant or Fashionable. In a future update, players will be able to customize their Citizens’ clothing in Commercial buildings. For a fee, of course! The Mega World team also plans to introduce wearables. Some of which may be useful tools in-game. For example, an axe to cut trees.

Don’t expect this reveal on November 2nd to be the full version of Mega World, as the MegaCryptoPolis team plans to release the alpha somewhere in March, April or May 2022. However, until that happens they will release all kinds of smaller demos, giving players a peak into the future of their game world.

The announcement on Twitter by MegaCryptoPolis didn’t provide a whole lot of information for outsiders. However, Mega World will become the updated version of MegaCryptoPolis. Instead of being a business owner in a city, players will actually be able to walk around in the city. In Mega World players own characters, and each of those characters has a job, a life, a home, hobbies, and perhaps a dog to take on a walk.

Mega World will allow players to walk through shopping areas, buying NFT art from a local gallery. It will also allow players to host parties in their mansion, or simply enjoy the view from their rooftop condo. Mega World combines elements of The Sims with a real, player-driven economy. On November 2nd they will introduce the ‘Mega World Intro’, which will probably be one of the demos mentioned earlier.

Earlier they partnered with Rarible

Every player gets a small, free apartment inside the Main Tower. However, when players start earning money, they might be able to upgrade to a nice home somewhere inside the city. Maybe they can rent, maybe they will buy. That’s up to the market to decide.

Earlier this year MegaCryptoPolis partnered with Rarible to allow apartment owners to showcase their NFTs inside the virtual world. In addition players can create storefronts as a location to sell their digital art. The integration of Rarible NFTs will mean more customization options for home owners in the city building game.

The World upgrade will allow players to enter buildings using their Citizen avatars. Every players has their own apartment and can buy something bigger from the open marketplace. Players create furniture using in-game resources and services. The entire game economy uses NFTs and blockchain technology. It’s also the reason why the native governance MEGA token, backed by in-game resources, has value.

What is Megacryptopolis?

You could compare MegaCryptoPolis with a game like Simcity, however it also has elements from The Sims in it. Players can own houses, offices, and factories. Citizens need jobs, jobs need employees, factories produces resources, and so on. All these digital assets are important for the MegaCryptoPolis ecosystem.

In addition the team is planning to add interior apartments to the game. This would mean that player-owned characters would have their own home, which could be decorate with furniture and electronics. These will also be ERC-721 or TRC20 tokens, which in turn need to be produced by factories, requiring resources, workers, transport and so on.

Currently MegaCryptoPolis is only playable in a web browser, both on desktop and mobile. In addition the team is working on a standalone client, a mobile app, interoperability between Tron, Polygon and Ethereum and more unique buildings that players can design themselves using building blocks. The MEGA token is an important part of the ecosystem, and represent in-game resources and therefore have a certain value.

MegaCryptoPolis has been working towards creating a more interactive and immersive experience for their players. As part of this MegaWorld expansion, players can literally enter the world. They can for example walk the streets, and check out player-owned offices and stores. And what could be better when decorating than putting up images of your NFTs on the walls?

With the upcoming MegaCryptoPolis expansion, all Rarible NFTs will be available for exhibit and decor in players’ interiors and storefronts. Game studio Supernovae and their artists will be releasing a series of artworks inspired by MegaWorld. The first NFT from this series is available exclusively on Rarible!
