Alpha 3.3 - Research Update

Blockchain Tycoon · published 19 Apr 2019, 11:16 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hello everyone,

In this update, we have redesigned the research tree. While still having price decrease research for GPU and ASIC, hash-rate research is completely removed from the tree. If you continue from a previous save file, you don’t lose your research points but the previously completed research is erased from the save files.

Each research cost 20 points and they start from 5% and goes up to 50%. The power-up values does not add up to the latest value you had. Instead, you receive a power up on top of the base value. For example, If you are researching the production output power up 5 times (25%), you receive total of 25% more output per day and not 75% (5+10+15+20+25).

Here are the new research options:

  • GPU price decrease
  • ASIC price decrease
  • Repair price decrease
  • Increased power capacity
  • Increased cooling capacity
  • Increased energy output for production
  • Increased coin earnings

Fixes and Changes

  • Redesigned research tree
  • Slightly more research point earnings per expert
  • Updates to new game selection interface which shows the startup cash now.

Research tree update was suggested by our community member @tomkloosterman. The research was planned to be completely removed. Thanks for the help and suggestion.

Feel free to share your feedback and suggestions through discussion forums.
