Launch Mechanics
Presale
For Season 4 there will be a Gangster NFT presale. The purpose of the presale is to give an opportunity for new players to join the game and to build up a prize pool. 100% of ETH spent will go to the prize pool.
Duration: 72 hours
Supply: Uncapped
Price: 0.003 ETH (equivalent to ~10k $GREED which was the price of gangsters after the dutch auction in Season 3)
Players should decide whether to buy in the presale for a fixed ETH price or wait for the game launch which has variable pricing. The presale may or may not be cheaper.
Variable Dutch Auction
In Gangster Arena, the cost of game assets is based on the number of purchases in the season. This allows the very first buyer to get an unfair advantage by buying units at a very low price.
To address this issue, we have decided to gamify the launch with a Variable Dutch Auction, where the minimum price of units will slowly decrease during the first 24 hours of launch.
More fair, as there is no major advantage for being the first one to login
More strategic, as players have to decide when is the right time to buy?
Unit | Starting Price | End Price* |
---|---|---|
Gangsters | 20,000 $GREED | 1000 $GREED |
Safehouses | 5,000 XGREED | 0 XGREED |
Goons | 7,500 $GREED / XGREED | 0 $GREED / XGREED |
*Assumes no player purchases. If players buy, price will go back up based on average purchases in the season (see pricing formula in game details)
