Anyone remember the Radeon 9800 pro? Running Half Life 2 at 60FPS was the shit back then.

TLDR : FPS but you pay for your lives and get paid for your kills ... What's next ... Paying for each bullet ?

Fukthisite

Lots of games are being designed to be able to integrate NFTs you already own.  So imagine taking a gun you earned from one FPS to another, and its worth money.  Its on a totally different level than steam selling skins. 

DigitalDude_42

They probably simply don't need to risk it. They're already selling people basically the same FPS over and over again so why rock the boat?

ThiccMoves

A game that would "run on ethereum" would be a joke compared to today's standards. You would need some centralized server anyways for doing the heavy work, and anyways it's just not possible lol. Unless you want your game to be 0.1 FPS and having to pay to see the next frame.

mnkbstard

i see a bit of sarcasm here, and i follow you check out my avatar. it's taken from a psychedelic videoclip, and it's probably copyrighted too. looking at reddit avatars i have PTSD caused by the introduction of paid skins and cosmetics in my beloved multiplayer FPS.

Anaxamandrous

A lot of people play FPS shooter games on their computers. To make this possible the computer is taking in data from the server, making thousands of calculations to reconcile that data plus any physics modeled in the game world with what the player sees, reading from the controller what the player is trying to do, shares that with the server and reflects those actions locally, and then (granted this step with a ton of help from the GPU) draws the next frame of the video game on screen. I'm not sure how many times per second these games coordinate with the server, but they update the screen sometimes 60 times per second, frequently taking what to the CPU and GPU must seem like "the rest of the week off" as they could refresh hundreds of times per second but have to wait for the monitor. It would be child's play for a Raspberry Pi to analyze every transaction on the chain in real time. They need to be faster now mainly to beat other bots to the punch.

jonfoxsaid

I fucking loved halo 3. IDK what it was about that game but even though stuff that is like technically better has come out many times since then I have never had as much fun with a multiplayer FPS than I did back then. I think a lot of it had to do just with the times in general, smart phones were not a thing yet really (I feel like they where just starting during the end of its life.) and computers where not as prevalent. It was more of a treat to connect with people online and play a game like that and combined with how fun the game was ... IDK ... a large part may be nostalgia as well.

jonfoxsaid

Ahh I didn't know that ! Me and my daughter play fortnight sometimes but I'm getting a little to old for competitive FPS ... and by that I mean I'm to slow and all these fucking kids kill me. When the newest halo game came out I was so excited to relive my halo 3 days and I was quickly put in my place 🙃

Background-Ad-2102

Only the best FPS ever made! Brings back those memories of summer nights pwning the noobs online when we were all 13 😂

RedBunery

An FPS cryptoroyale would be awesome.

Plebian1994

Sure lmao. If it's a playable game the fact that you can earn money from it might make it worth people's time. I've played some FPS games online like Soldier Front and Combat Arms and they were pretty fun actually but just knock offs of Call of Duty. And that was YEARS ago

Plebian1994

Just feels like it would be pretty simple to copy and paste some FPS game. They are all the same anyways pretty much 🤣throw some kill streaks in it with some decent maps sniping and equipment and u got urself a decent crypto game for the masses

cashpig000

FPS: Every 10 kills, you get a chance to farm a piece of a coin. Multiple keys increase it's chance.

Plebian1994

It can't be that hard to make a good FPS game with a crypto token ecosystem attached to it can it? Isn't that all we want haha?

Harmz1229

The fun part lol. Just make a FPS with good tokenomics where u can bet and earn some crypto by winning games as a team or free for all. Not that difficult

Tasigur1

FPS seems kinda low tbh. Maybe it's just this gameplay trailer :)

Plebian1994

Really hoping eventually they can make a good FPS game using crypto in the future......it'll happen eventually. FPS games aren't really that hard to make and people might just play it for the fact u can earn some sort of crypto in it.

NotAnAlcoholicToday

It's been a while since I last had it powered on, but I think I had an AMD something, ~3Ghz, 4 or 8 cores (most likely 4 iirc) a GPU that could play PUBG on medium (at least) and hold 30FPS, and I think, 12GB of RAM. Definitely not the greatest, I know that much, but would be nice to put it to use.

Abysskitten

No, it's like playing an FPS then without the guns, lol. That kind of POV.

evoxyseah

If you like FPS game, ev.io is decent. It is a browser FPS game.

graphic-crypto

My bank blocks payments to exchanges the difference between them and BottlePay is a bank account in your name so FPS to an account in your name is ok but to a generic account with a reference number is suspicious to them and a reason to block the payment. Over a long period of time 1% may be a lot but at least I can make deposits. They also allow lightning deposits and withdrawals minimum buy of £1 and I think available in the EU too if not they definitely used to be.

-l0Lz-

Ok these might be good news. Finally some FPS like. When will it come out? Not going to put too much hope but let's cross fingers.

-l0Lz-

He would have more if he was early 😔 But yes gaming and crypto are just not there yet. Maybe he thinks it will blow up in future and be like Axie (which is not either a good example of gaming and crypto ) Sure you can make money if you get early i agree but it's just not it. You know... We are way too early. I used to play Blankos and it's not too bad but it's a think collection based with profit. Like they all are. Collect this collect that sell or dump to new guys. What i would like is some kind of FPS or RPG.

therabbit14

Ohh, shiny. A new link. Must... Resist... Urge... To... CLICK! On another note, I wonder what it will be like when we grow old. Will we still be sitting in front of laptops all day long? Will there be dementia wards where you can choose FPS ward, RPG ward, LoL ward etc.?

MeasurementFlashy201

Largest FPS inching towards web 3.

juanadov

This is an attempt by the USA to catch up with everyday payments. They oddly lag behind a lot of the world in this area, and I dunno why that’s the case. As an example, contactless payment has been in every shop in the UK (bar a few outliers) for years now where as it’s still gaining traction in the USA. Same as the FPS system discussed here. It’s just normal here.

Cheap_Being2231

1. we take him as a Lunatic 2. FedNow is basically same as UPI or FPS. but, it's not going to compete with Crypto. We use crypto not only for faster payments, but for privacy and control over money. 3. General thinking is, as they have FedNow, people won't use crypto for payments. That's a ridiculous claim.

nadhsib

Yeah, it's just a faster payment system, same as other countries have had for years. Australia has OSKO, UK has FPS(I think it's called) - both allow transaction to settle in seconds / minutes as opposed to days. Seems to be a huge amount of misunderstanding about this across the board.

LeFabio

I havent checked Gala for a while now, but in time when crypto gaming *made sense*, they dropped some announcements that looked somewhat promising. They were (by todays standards) low quality trailers, but were FPS games that actually could be polished. I remember they announced that they'll be having developers from reputable studios, one was an ex CoD:BO developer, Idk about the rest, but the names were big.

completelypositive

Could use a smart contract to rent out portions your library..... $3.99/day and you get access to my library of the top 25 FPS games of all time.

torontoglutton

We need a Crypto FPS that is actually good. Enough with the card games lol

CryptozNewb

Reddit seems to have a bad habit of not looking in the right places for web3 games. There are a lot of crypto games, and they are growing by the day in numbers and quality! And, to be fair, most of these are still officially in an alpha or beta state. But they're still playable. Here are just a few: FPS - ev.io, Project Red, Mini-Royale, Undead Blocks; Metalcore, Shrapnel, Citizen Conflct, and Metaland in development MOBA - Spider Tanks, Thetan Arena; Wildcards, The Harvest, and Tearing Spaces in development Strategy - Voxie Tactics, Eternal Dragons, Mojo Melee Virtual World with arena combat and in-world mini-games - Champions Ascension Chronos - side scroller with PvE and PvP Big Time - instanced fantasy RPG Influence - space-based MMO with detailed production chains and orbits Huntes On-chain - top-down, multiplayer, PvE competitions Ad you mentioned that you aren't a fan of TCG style games, but they are a great fit for NFTs. For that we have Gods Unchained, Skyweaver, Deviants' Factions, Splinterlands, Parallel, Dark Country, Synergy of Serra, MuTerra, and more! ​ Not every type of game is going to fit well with blockchain tech. For example, most single-player games. That's why you'll see most of the blockchain games built around PvP or leaderboard competitions. The blockchain gaming space is still growing and developing, but there is definitely much more than there was a year ago. And it's going to continue to grow by leaps and bounds over the coming years. We're just getting started!

GabeSter

Hopefully I don’t fully understand how FPS games work because internet communication is insane. But it doesn’t stop me from enjoying a game of Halo. 343 managed to do that by themselves.

PMme10dolarSteamCard

Agreed, I kinda forgot I'm old and that now all online games have items with real world value even FPS

Local-Session

GeForce Now and Shadow are two. If you search for cloud based gaming I'm sure others will show up I think LinusTechTips did a video covering them at some point as well. Latency and compression were two massive factors, of which the overall conclusion was 'kind of works' as long as you weren't too picky. Best for driving games and worst for FPS

RiceRare

I think the only value of blockchain in gaming is transferability and true ownership of the asset. Both are completely useless unless we also have some kind of eco system for games, which is not centralized like you described them usually to be. So yes, I agree with you. Until games are centralized blockchain is not really needed. But if we take much longer time period in consideration, and let's assume we have some sort of eco system in which all bigger games reside. There is than a possibility of someone having his favourite gun skin from sc:go, also in other FPS games. And if one of the games goes under, he gets to keep the skin and still use it in other games. There's a lot that has to change for this to be possible though.

kisaiii

Kraken bro, they have GBP based pairs. Just be sure you check orders on the book to avoid huge slippage in terms of price as GBP is their most illiquid market. Or you can send to Binance too via FPS, idk if it's still on (on Kraken for sure), but check available liquidity first

Goldbaerig

Longterm motivation and anti cheat. Take CS:GO for example. People are investing thousands of hours in it. They're buying skins for ridiculous amounts. And people play it in computers with absurd amounts of power just to run it with 250 instead of 180 FPS. Let them earn cryptos instead of XP and make the skins NFTs. Another example would be WoW where people also invest countless hours and pay for the game as a service just to get some cool looking pixels. What do these games have in common? They feel really reward if your progress, but never give you a feeling of reaching some kind of final goal and in both games you will be stopped if you abuse or cheat. They dont even need to offer financial profit for you to want to play.

Do you know of a little company called EPIC GAMES???? Well they are planning to launch Forge Arena on their store, which is an FPS. I do not know why I am even replying cos clearly you probably thought crypto was a scam before so there is no fooling you.

HealthyMaintenance49

That's such a bad analogy. I grew up playing GTA vice city/san andreas, mortal kombat, FPS like CoD, counter strike, and even before that PS1 games are full of violent games, my favorite being Wild 9. But I knew what's right and what's wrong and so are people my age.

Wowfan121231

As a game ? No lol However this patch they got something out that its now possible to get useable FPS out of it. Far from good but now its possible to run on 40 or 60 or even 120 fps with ultra beast machines If you ever hear "star citizen released DYNAMIC server meshing" Then jump in. Before that stay away imho

quetejodas

So far, crypto games are boring and tedious. Has someone made a normal FPS with skins/items/weapons on the blockchain?

Llyfr-Taliesin

> Web3 needs to be able incorporate all content into any 'verse' before this concept has some real merit. And that just is going to never be possible, unless suddenly every game used the exact same engine & was developed by one big team & had one graphical style How can a top-down 2D RPG and a 3D FPS share assets? It doesn't make any sense, it's never made any sense, it's always been a ludicrous pitch

nelsonmckey

The impressive part is their server side compression, which allows 1,000 players to co-mingle with no visible lag or local FPS overhead with full spatial audio - it was pretty crazy. The issue I have is that this level of infrastructure deployment is far better suited for a AAA game development model, rather than a decentralised or on-chain gaming environment. How we bridge this gap I’m not sure.

lastaccountgotdoxxed

Deaddrop from the Doc looks promising. Battle Royale FPS Vertical Loot Extractor

StrangelyBeige

I like the Doc, but there’s so much margin for error for this not to be a massive flop. Its hard to be innovative in the FPS world and I don’t think having crypto incentives is a great move, especially with hackers so rife in the FPS space.

Ryuzaki_63

It's interesting to follow, so far it looked to be some FPS/BR-esque game, now it appears to be a EFT raid style too? At first I just thought it was NFT player characters/skins Could be interesting if done well. Needs a sick netcode and an even better anti cheat though. Nothing worse than having your $$$ raid destroyed by some speedhacking aimbotter

Ryuzaki_63

Lmao yea him and FPS Doug, there was a time at school that all you'd hear is "booom headshot!" between friends, good times

BenDubs14

Illuvium has an interesting take on this which is basically that cross title interoperability can currently only exist within the single universe of titles and individual studio creates. In their games, the item or whatever is tokenized as an NFT is playable in each title but not necessarily as the same exact item. The example being capturing a Pokémon like illuvial in the overworld (the pokemon inspired RPG) might represent an entire vehicle in a racing game, or a weapon skin or type in an FPS.

UnknownPurpose

Well its still finding its feet in many ways for one but I think its moving fairly quickly and the next bull run will start to reveal some great progress. I dont think there will ever be any porting to blockchain for current things, sadly, I too have at least 100 bought skins in current BR titles. I believe the popularity of micro transactions even though hated will prove to work well ij player driven economies and generate revenue to keep Devs motivated and working long after initial sales have ended. Check out Forge Arena, mutli-chain playable fps in early stage and I hear(rumor) its coming to Epic Games store. Guns are trading quite a bit back and forth and the game token is doing ok, I support these things because I have a passion for tech and gaming so that is where my bias comes from. Another nice FPS example is Dr Disrespects game Dead Drop on Polygon.

3utt5lut

I'd love to see an FPS that generates blocks based on either your PvE kill score or your PvP K/D. Make a game out of trying to take back the blockchain. More kills = more crypto. Room for NFTs as skins or other cosmetic micro-transactions. You're already using pretty extreme processing power playing games nowadays, why not apply some of that to blockchain tech? You just wanna game? 100% graphics, 0% crypto. You want to gain? 50% graphics, 50% crypto. You could even go all-in and play it as low-res as possible.

Korlithiel

First we need to see standards in the computer industry. Like, no matter how neat it would be to own a Mario avatar, what use is it if you can only import it back to the same game? Also, why would the latest Elder Scrolls game design and implement guns so you could turn their game into an FPS? Gaming has some real potential, but the pitfalls are notable and need to be worked through. Worse, since the hardware and software gets better with time, that means those standards will also need to be routinely updated, which means that older games will lose functionality with time.

Wonzky

Some sort of FPS/Battle Royale, and if they really want to integrate NFT stuff just make it skins that can be obtained without having to pay obscene amounts

Sylerb

Yeah I agree, I made this post having the wrong perspective about FPS gaming. Hope we'll see good desktop crypto games soon..

Sylerb

I play games but pretty much only solo non-FPS ones, this is my first time playing an FPS for like seven years. But I think this is as advanced as it can get since its browser-based..

ifisch

This Evio game looks like something from 15 years ago. Incredibly basic graphics and gameplay. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtZhK2UW69o](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtZhK2UW69o) Judged solely as a videogame, I don't think this would crack the top 100 online multiplayer FPS's that are currently available.

ZulkarnaenRafif

You aren't supposed to have plans when things go right or wrong, you're supposed to ape. How dare you use thought process and mining? There are gamers starving for their daily cards per year and can't play 420 FPS in 69K. But yes, it was an extremely wild moment. I was mining for fun. The high end card basically literally paid for itself and more. That's even considering the electricity bills. Granted, I'm not in Europe where electricity is relatively more expensive. But still... it's basically an effortless job. Basically, had been mining mostly for profit. When the party ends, it ends with a high note for me, personally.

slawter_uk

As a 16 year veteran of WoW who hates CoD, I would jump at the chance to get in game and run around using certain cosmetics. Why do you think games like fortnight with their over the top skins does so well? What about games like TF2 with their crazy hats? Some people don't need games to be super serious. A real life example could be assets that are shared across games for guns. A single database that includes models, specs, animations etc. This could then be used across any FPS game. You instantly cut down on the time needed to model your own version and you have access to these files to modify them as you wish. At this point you don't really need Blockchain to solve this specific issue. The real power of it comes from individual asset creators no longer needing to work for a gaming company that puts them through crunch, pays them poorly and can fire them tomorrow. Games are only ever going to get more complex up until there are decent AIs that speed up some of the process. Added complexity and implementation time is not a bad thing, so long as the chosen tools are correct for the project.

PolarBearLaFlare

“Killing” is quite the exaggeration once you consider that no one uses that shit outside of CS:GO, which has been the #1 FPS shooter for ages. In a game environment that can last that long, sure, they could work. Take a look at the highest priced skins being sold right now, there’s like 1 AWP for $600 and everything else is pennies. You still haven’t given me a good reason why NFT’s should be in video games. If it’s just so that you can try and make your money back, by dumping your skins, once you’re bored with the game, that’s not a good reason.

Puking_In_Disgust

You set up a vault for your friend? I mean if you’re just planning on buying them to sell later there’s no real reason to bother sending it to your Reddit vault unless you just want status like a game skin… but everyone knows someone can just buy them so no one’s really going to treat you any different lol if anything if you throw a bunch of moons in an account you’ll just get a bunch more scammers messaging you (source: this is my 2nd account lol). If a friend came to me wanting me to do that for them I’d just tell them that. You’ll get more respect for a neat skin in an FPS.

UnknownPurpose

Forgotten Chain(MMORPG) and Afterland(FPS)

Which-Ad-9338

I wish developers would just give the people an FPS with tokenized rewards for kill streaks and NFT weapons. Most crypto games that I've seen are shameless cash grabs.

thinkingperson

Call me a cynic. Just think about it. Game developers, game software houses are specialised in writing games and even then, it's a cut throat industry with no sure formula. Most of the games tied to crypto that I've seen so far are more like versions of farmville or gemstone genre game that happen to use crypto coins. So such crypto games would be "fun" for those who already like farmville or gemstone genre games but not for those who play FPS, RTS etc. For Crypto-centric companies to come up with AAA grade games that rival existing ones would be a tough hill to scale. So chances are, crypto games in general would not really be appealing. More of just grinding through repetitive mundane gameplay to get crypto coins. Would be happy to be proven wrong.

Which-Ad-9338

Honestly, another shitty CoD clone with crypto rewards for each kill would be highly successful. An FPS is the best model but that actually takes effort to produce and launch. No one wants to sit around breeding fake ass pokemon for a game with stiff RPG mechanics.

OaksByTheStream

> It would still require custom work on the part of each individual game, for each applicable category (because again, there is no universal - what does a car model mean in an FPS for example?). Plus additional work to moderate and filter "skins" that are inappropriate for design, legal, or practical reasons. Yes. This is obvious, and you can take the "skin" and apply it to anything. Clearly you've never done a single fucking thing to do with skin creation lmao. You have no idea what you're talking about. Moderation? Only if they feel like it. It's not required. There's only a few legal reasons why they might remove a skin, and people generally report them to let them know. No they wouldn't. You don't understand what open source means for fuck's sake lol. > You do realize that the implementation being open source doesn't magically give you the right to use someone else's intellectual property, right? I genuinely can't tell if you're serious or trolling at this point. For personal use, it doesn't fucking matter you troglodyte. You understand nothing of what you're trying to pretend you're talking about. Like fuck right off. > Even if you tried to clumsily tie the NFT to licensing via external legal contract, developers would still want to forbid arbitrary transfer/use for legal, aesthetic, branding, etc reasons. E.g. Nintendo wouldn't want Mario appearing in a porn game. You don't fucking have to. There is zero requirement to do so. Personal use does not matter. > And I'm a software engineer with a decade of experience. Playing games doesn't mean you understand how they're developed or work from a software POV. Doesn't mean you understand anything about making a game either. Python is very different than a general game engine. Besides. I've made and sold games. They weren't good, but I understand them. > By taking even more in from players than they pay out, same as a casino. Lol no. You don't understand the mechanics at all. They generally make money by taking in a bit of money, using all sorts of options to turn it into more money, and then use the excess to draw in more people through the general play and pay. You're talking out of your fucking ass. Now fuck off.

bullett007

Bad wording on my part, trade on Kraken Pro. So deposit GBP via FPS which it looks like you do. Then, click into Kraken Pro and 'trade your GBP for BTC'. You're **selling** GBP, and **buying** BTC, you can do so via a market order (*which is basically an instant buy at best price offered*) or you can set a limit order, which is you setting a price that you will execute your trade at, e.g sell 100% of my GBP for BTC if the price of bitcoin is X. (X being the price you set).

jesuzombieapocalypse

I don’t think they need it, I’ve never played myself but from what I’ve gathered from friends who have they’ve always been more focused on not being dependent on the internet or even electricity to be able to play. To bring NFT’s into it would be more cumbersome than say, making a weapon skin in an FPS an NFT.

stormdelta

I would suggest watching [these](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKzup7XDyq8) two [videos](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IYjsWBbmKI) by a senior game developer with many decades of experience. > This is why I said a standardized module. You could create a module for each different engine, but with the exact same functionality. If the game wanted to use skins, it could be available to anyone looking to do so.

By taking even more in from players than they pay out, same as a casino. This isn't complicated - suppose a normal game gets X dollars from their players, and have Y costs, for a profit margin Z = X - Y. For the _same profit margin_ Z, a P2E game must charge X+W, where W is the amount paid out to players.

Sharkytrs

from a dev standpoint its madness. Even the original premise of "being able to take the item to another game" is a ludicrous delusion i.e if NFT's were to be truly designed to be swapped between games, then the Item NFT itself couldn't be TOO specialized, i.e bring a sword to a gun based FPS? whats the point in allowing that? and if we did? how similar would the games be in an underlying sense to allow for NFT's from both games to be integrated? games will start to become more and more similar and less creative. from an ownership level there is no benefit either, if Fifa Ultimate team were NFT based would you think EA would stop resetting the system every year so people have to buy again? hell no, that market is magnitudes ahead in profit compared to the sale of the game itself. rant over, thank you for listening to my ted talk

RagingD3m0n

Everyone is missing a big point. This isnt EA, a FPS studio or some MOBA studio. This is Square Enix. Everytime they try microtransactions its pisses off their fans. They make (usually single player) RPGs. NFTs wouldnt fit well at all in this specific case (Barring an MMO like FFXIV).

Cybugger

> Dude, it's just an example That's sort of the problem. Even when you're not constrained by technological limitations and realities, it's still a pretty shitty example that immediately falls to pieces. > it could be a vechicle or a gun which requires less customization to fit the character model(or even a graffiti spray like in overwatch or a dance/pose). What are you talking about? Even if you take two games that are both FPS, for example, both running on Unreal3, what you're talking about is ludicrous. Art styles, the very mechanics of how guns work, their damage stats, everything can be, and often is, very different, from one game to the next. The problem with NFTs are that they require some boring, homogenous underlayer to function. I don't want that. No one wants that. We don't want huge amounts of games that are essentially just clones of each other, where you can take an item from game A and, because you bought it, use it in game B. Not to mention the horrific damage you do to the artstyle and world-building, essentially rendering a decent portion of the game into a poorly defined gloop. This is also a massive headache in terms of IP theft and copyright. No company with a single person in a legal department will ever go through with this horrible idea.

advias

P2E has 2 possible outcomes: It's a pay based on liquidity holders, therefor token holders are being involved in a ponzi scheme, taken advantage of, or scammed. The only possible way it can work is if the concept relies on players paying to play with rewards based on other players who also play to pay. EG a concept of a FPS where each player pays $1 to play and each kill nets $1 (a 1:1 trade off) Otherwise, if it involves a token, it's a scam. The only other possible third option is if they fund a pool for marketing purposes and pay out on that where is either runs out or they refill it. Then if the game is good, people play without needing to be paid overtie

Huh, they very recently bumped it up to £1.95 then, like within the last week or two. It was £1 before that for several years. No one is using the other withdrawal methods unless they need to. FPS is Faster Payments, the standard way of making payments between UK bank accounts. Clear Junction is the name of the UK bank that Kraken holds their clearing account with. Coinbase has always been a rip-off.

Bitcoin is still buggy. This patch dropped me down to 35 FPS and I still can't beat the side quest involving The Federal Reserve. This is the last time I pre-order a cryptocurrency.

Jump on your favorite FPS game. Plenty of bots to blow up.

> PayPal is trash tier here, you can't take your Bitcoin off of it lol. You used to be able to at one point in the US! Never was the case here. > SEPA Still not fast enough for our liking, we're too used to instant transfers these days, whereas SEPA takes 3–5 working days. I would avoid it if I could. For sending fiat internationally, whether to Europe or otherwise, Wise.com is usually the way to go. SEPA also only supports EUR, so currency conversion for UK users that is performed by their bank is a massive cost. SEPA is only for interfacing with EUR-denominated / mainland European bank accounts. In the UK, for local UK-to-UK transfers, the old protocol is BACS, later improved upon by CHAPS for same-day clearing. However, since 2009, we have had FPS (Faster Payments System) for instant arrival, and which Kraken supports. I can send money to Kraken's UK bank account via FPS, and it lands in my exchange account in a matter of 10 minutes. Same for GBP withdrawals, which only cost £1.

Might be an unpopular opinion, SOL is not good for serious stuff such as DIDs and SOV. But it is good for games as the tx fee is cheap and fast. One of the game that is built on SOL is [ev.io](https://ev.io). It is a browser based FPS game. It is free to play if you don't care about the token or SOL.

People keep saying they want Ready Player One experience and all VR immersion. I think a whole lot of them are full of shit. Imagine telling those Cheetos-licking and couch-potato FPS gamers they have to do serious physical aerobatics to avoid getting shot.... A whole lot of them would just rage quit. Many people game to escape realism and have a sense of fake accomplishments. VR with real immersion kills off the whole lot of gaming consumer base. There is a reason why Meta's VR Medal of Honor didn't take off.

but they get hacked occasionally and all your data including your card information is available on the net [https://techcrunch.com/2022/09/20/revolut-cyberattack-thousands-exposed/](https://techcrunch.com/2022/09/20/revolut-cyberattack-thousands-exposed/) but yeah lets keep using it i can advise you using binance easy kyc fast payment trough FPS easy to use app great customer support if you need help

Solana is total dogshit and Avalanche is the best crypto platform overall with over a hundred app-chains (subnets) getting ready to launch. Also have you seen Shrapnel? On chain FPS that will likely be the biggest NFT based game and it runs on Avalanche.

>I am watching the results of the US Election and they are still counting votes this long? Is this normal? Yes, it's normal and actually a desirable characteristic in my opinion. We are not playing FPS games here, where lag matters. These are elections, which determine the fate of an entire nation. Speed should not even be a topic of consideration, while there are far more important issues to address. I want things done right, not done fast. >Some sort of validation mechanism, that proves you are a person in compliance with whatever laws, blah blah. If you want to talk about improving democratic mechanisms, this goes directly against it. We should try to make the system as inclusive as possible, not automate restrictions. >The individual is the only person that knows the wallet address to check that their vote counted. Ok then, what happens to people who are not proficient with technology? Who verifies that their vote counted? >This sounds to good to be true Even if your system worked flawlessly, this does not sound good at all. This is not what democracy looks like. You want a system that does not depend on technology, a system where even people who don't know how to open an app are able to participate in. >so please turn this idea to swiss cheese if it sucks. I wish I could turn your idea into swiss cheese, I really do. But I'm afraid swiss cheese is way too solid. Your idea is like antimatter, if it touches regular matter it will blow up really bad. I could talk about voting using computers until I'm blue in the face and why it's a really, really bad idea, but let me just briefly address a few points. From what you've described, there's no system to prevent people from having multiple keys and voting a million times. Someone has to actually individually validate people before the election to distribute the keys to them, or whatever. You can't automate such a system, it's physically impossible. There's no algorithm in the universe that returns actual data on real life stuff. You can't have a program that tells you how many people there are (even to begin with), you have to input that data manually. Primary data is not an output of computers, that's the input only. Output data is only derivative from the input. What that means in practice is that actual people will still be in charge of the election process, you can't take the humans out of the equation, which means you haven't solved any problems, merely obfuscated them. It's actually worse for democracy, because now people are less likely to be vigilant because they have the misguided belief that it's safer. The best system in a working democracy is simultaneously the most resistant one (which means barely any dependence on experts and technology) and the most suspicious one (so that people are naturally inclined to constantly investigate it and cross examine it). If a system is not suspicious, people become complacent and that becomes a point of attack. >I just come from a country where elections are.... lets just say for show. In that case, you would replace a traditional voting show for a Blockchain show. It's perfectly doable to have a system that doesn't really work. The people smart enough will cry out that the Blockchain is false and rigged, and the people in charge will continue to ignore them as always. You can't fix democracy with technology.

Hey, try Nationwide, i can still send money to binance or cdc through FPS, if not check out Monzo or Revolut!

DerWaldbub

Or to FPS. But then it won't go over 30 because the human eye can't see motev than 30 FPS /s

This is like watching a train crash in slow mo at 80,000 FPS.

Gunfire is an FPS (on Xbox game pass) Runeterra is deck building (free to play)

I'm not sure that you did. Removing Fiat to CEX types of payments from the FPS infrastructure isn't a particularly bad move. FPS is instantaneous and doesn't allow any oversight if someone is getting scammed and subsequently realises. Santander using only BACS or SWIFT as the default method to transfer funds to an exhange enables the bank to stop the payment if a customer realises that they are being scammed and also enables the bank to have more time to question whether the customer is legitimately okay with completing the transaction. There are more and more instances where banks are on the hook for compensating scam victims under voluntary codes of conduct and so ensuring that customers transactions aren't completed (and thus irreversible) under instant FPS transfers but are subject to a 'quasi cooling' off period by using slower payment infrastructure isn't as awful as you think it is.

I use starling, and highly advise just doing the bank transfer, with kraken for example, it's free, and funds are in my account within 5-10 minutes due to FPS. The fee for paying with card is high, it's much more optimal to bank transfer, plus they won't get flagged up for fraud or other financial crime, because it's much easier to steal a card and make payments than it is to access someone's online banking and make a transfer

No expert on any of this - but what I would love to see (and play) is the games I already play, but make them free to play on casual mode, and pay/stake for ranked play. Losing team loses their bet/stake, winning team earns some form of crypto easily exchanged for mainstream coins or whatever. Game may take a percentage (like the house in a casino), or just generate revenue from ads or whatever they were already doing prior to crypto (like paid skins/cosmetics). This should help ranked play become a little more troll free, and a nice feature would be option to "tip" teammates that facilitated wins or contributed majorly to the wins. For reference, the games I enjoy that I see this working with are MOBAs like Smite, LoL, DOTA, Mobile Legends Bang Bang; FPS like CoD, CSGO; Card/chess style games. I would love to also see it incorporated into larger scale games like BF, HLL, Battle Royales, etc. But I see that as problematic with the way those games operate.

First reddit comment, im usually lurking but I love this topic so much... so i threw $5 on special to comment on ur post I just finished a masters degree and wrote my thesis about blockchain adoption in gaming. To answer your questions, what I like about games is how interactive and immersive games can be. I mainly play FPS games such as Call Of Duty and CSGO. I believe the ability of a game to be **competitive** is what missing to current blockchain gaming project. If you take a look at CSGO skins economy, you'll see that most CSGO players with the highest valued inventories are players take follow closely CSGO's competitive scene. If you think of CSGO weapon skins as NFTs or "Collectibles"... Demand is there... I'm not a huge fan of Play 2 Earn as I believe it isn't a sustainable model. But I do think that game companies have a huge opportunity to use blockchain in order to have more control over third party marketplaces such as BUFF... Would love to hear about others opinion!
