CipherShooters: Pre-minting and The Value of Operators
We’ve received a report that Meta corp has ordered a shipment of 100,000s of drone pieces and is attempting to make a final push to take over the city. We only have 1000 Elite Operators and 5000 trainees left to hold our ground. We need you to lead them and take our city, our culture, and our way of life back from these bastards.
The First Battalion: Pre-minting
On Oct 31st, 14:00 UTC (11:00 UTC for early adopters), the barracks will open and you’ll be able to mint 4 operators per account with any combination of Elite and Trainee Operators.
Operators come in 5 different classes.
- Vanguard
- Sentry
- Spy
- Hunter
- Commando
Each trained to handle specific weapons with deadly proficiency.
Operators stem from 4 different factions, each faction gives tribute to a different element
- Fire
- Water
- Earth
- Lightning
And in return are blessed with elemental energies that enhance or weaken their ability against other elements.
Operators Ranks
The above attributes are completely random when minting. As a commander, you can choose to lead Elite or Trainee operators which will play a different role in our battle.
Elites are expected to lead battles against waves of drones and boss-level enemies. They’ll receive rewards directly from The Core for their duty. These rewards should be used to craft and buy the strongest weapons possible to continue taking back the city.
Trainees will be fighting enemies and disassembling drones to create crafting materials and weapons that they can use to increase their efficiency or sell them to elites.
Additionally, we want to lower participation in CipherShooters so we will be introducing a Citizen role. These citizens won’t be in the frontlines battling but they’ll be able to provide game-wide buffs to all operators.
While we reserve the right to introduce more elites and trainees, we do not intend to. There will be a natural progression from Citizen -> Trainee -> Elites. Citizens will attend Boot Camp to turn into Trainees and Trainees will attend Special Forces Academy to turn into Elites. More details on this will be provided in the future.
There will be 10 families of Operators. And each operator will belong to one of the families. Whenever a new Operator is added to the ecosystem they will be added to one of the 10 families depending on who invited them. This will create extensive family trees over time. Families will not have any game benefits on launch but we think this will create an interesting community dynamic over time.
Generative Art
Each Operator Class will have thousands of unique skins. These skins will be selected randomly depending on what is currently in the art pool. While there will be thousands of skins total, only a few hundred will be available at one time. And will rotate often. When new rotations are available you’ll be able to re-roll your skin at a chance at a new look. After a while, certain looks will be retired and considered legacy.
There is also a 1/1000th chance that the Operator you mint will be holographic!
The Value of an Operator
The value of an Operator can be summed up by three core concepts. Fun received from participating in the CipherShooters metaverse, participating and belonging to a community, and lastly the amount of revenue that can be generated by owning an Operator.
Gameplay
Owning an operator will allow you to participate in battles, crafting, raids, owning land and so much more. While the game will launch with one game mode think of your operators as your golden ticket into the CipherShooters theme park and as new attractions get added you’ll always have access to them.
Community
Community is of utmost importance, this rings true in CipherShooters and real life. We’re excited to grow together and work on building prosperity on a global scale.
Earning
Elite Operators also allow you to tap directly into a stream of income that’s generated by The Core. As the Core TLV increases over time so does this stream of income. So while you start by paying a flat fee for an operator the amount of income it can generate increases over time.
Elite and Trainees will also be able to participate in the marketplace of weapons and crafting materials to generate income. It’s important to note that with the Virtuous cycle, all economic activity in CipherShooters leads to a further increase of rewards given by The Core.
Early adopters will be able to benefit the most from the appreciation of NFT assets and Tag tokens. Early participants will be able to earn higher amounts of TAGs than future players as we expect the price of TAGs to rise and because rewards are pegged to USD, you’ll receive fewer tags but more USD value as the economy grows.
As players participate in the economy, The Core Overflow builds and operators have a chance of earning large amounts of TAGs in a single battle.
The city needs your help. Now is your chance to recruit a unique operator at the end of the month and help take back Cipher City. This is a journey into the metaverse with one of the only sustainable play and earn economies. We believe CipherShooters is pioneering the future of the metaverse and will change the future of gaming.
