The News


Live Update Highlights


- Upcoming live Alpha game play stream with TCG World Partner Collect-A-Ball, featuring Ryan the Founder. Visit their website here: https://collectaballnft.com/


October 7th on Youtube!



- 3.2.2 Build expected to drop this weekend.

- 3.2.2 Build Updates: Dragons will be faster. More roads and overpasses. Smoother roads. "My Lands" UI improvements. Teleportation fixes. Multiple stability fixes.


They showed a video of the road development.

Some pictures from the roads in TCG World (rough, development shots)






- Marketplace is on track for an October launch. It's in testing now. No exact date.

- ETH staking pool is ready to deploy.

- They will be launching a poll tonight about the ETH Staking to determine the pool staking sizes. This is because most people have BSC version of TCG2 and there aren't as many with the ETH version.

- New Website UI (https://tcg.world)

- Smart Congrats for Cars, Sprites and Dynamic NFTs are ready to go preparing for the Marketplace. Upgradable NFTs, basically.


Project Updates:

This weekend's version is 3.2.2, not the same as 4.0 what they're talking about. 4.0 Build Updates shown are:

- New Cars with improved physics, controller ability and more optimizations.


New Cars Screenshots:









- Car tuning mechanics and upgrades. APIS so all are on the blockchain. Colors, Stripes, etc.


They show a video... some screenshots:






Jon says motorcycles will likely be put in. Wraps eventually likely too.


- A new Builder - Version 2.0 - Putting down a foundation will get rid of plants, rocks, trees, etc.


Jon lists off some of the building improvements:

- Linking model by grid

- Free camera

- Staircase improvements

- new menu

- NFTs stick to walls

- Limit to the total moduals on the plot.


Another Video, UI screenshot:




- Performance enhancements for visual graphics

- Reduced RAM usage

- Cut scenes into 6 pieces which will make them faster to load.

- Biomes optimizations, updates, and they're being polished.

- Improvements to distance views.


Controllers hopefully developed soon - good for the cars, but some things you need the mouse for still.


Ram usable improvements may make you be able to set graphics higher, and/or chunk distance higher as well. All depends on your system.


NO ETA on 4.0 build.

WINNER OF PLOT GIVEAWAY

This giveaway was thanks to Chris from the community. He won this plot, but decided to give it back and asked TCG to run a giveaway for NEW People - people without a plot.


For this winner, you must not own land yet.


Winner: @svax974 gets a silver plot!


What are your plans with this silver plot of land?

Response: Get a foot in what seems to be one of the most promising metaverse to come. More precisely, it will depend on which kind of land plot is it, but I'm mostly looking forward to explore and propose a welcoming place for other adventurers.


What do you love best about TCG World?

Response: The different land type is a very interesting idea that brings directly diversity. I also like the partners already involved.


Community Question and Answer session:


When will the whitepaper for farming be available?

- December is the plan! Marketplace first, then they hope to get it ready for December!


Will we be able to buy and sell TCG Dragons on marketplace or only Opensea?

- Yes. They will be tradable on the TCG Marketplace and Opensea.


Any new partnerships to be announced? Or updates to existing partnerships?

- A huge partnership coming up, to be announced soon. Waiting for them to release their press release. "A big boy" PJ calls them. Once they release the news, TCG will be able to.


At launch, will farming be ready to go? Crystal gathering? Business licenses?

- For launch, for the first month or so they will be testing farming. Won't exactly be live. They will look at the data for a sustainable model. It won't just be TCG2 tokens


Farming: 2 Different Seeds: 1 seed will give TCG2 tokens, another for TCG assets.


Crystal Mining: TCG2 will be the reward. Will be there for launch.


Business Licenses: Ready for launch. Business licenses will be specific to each owner. Non-tradable.


Will we be able to pay-to-attend events at the convention stadium or the monster truck arena?

- There will be free events, and also premium events that you could pay for.


Will there be pre-built business available to plot holders to put on their plots to earn TCG2?

- Yes, there will be certain businesses to put on your plots, but there will be limits.


Any news on a 3rd DEX?

- Yes, might be sushiswap. No dates. For the future!

Bonus questions:
