Finally the time has come. The US congress has approved the construction of a railway to the West. The Union Pacific company got the order to build the tracks and they need your help! Hundreds of miles of tracks have to be built, the workers have to be supplied and there might be Indian attacks.
Now we all have to work together: Duelists, workers, adventurers and soldiers. Help with the project to tap the West via the Union Pacific railway. As a reward you get valuable Union Pacific bonds, which you can trade against special items in the companies shop. The more sweat and deligence you invest and the more active you are, the more bonds you get as your salary. Maybe the Union pacific trader is corrupt and also accepts gold nuggets?
It's a hard and dangerous project but the salary is great. What are you going to do?
Dear community,
with the upcomming update to version 1.35 two big new features will come into the game, which we want to present you in advance: The activity reward system and the Union Pacific shop. Also there will be a new currency, the "Union Pacific bonds" (UPB).
Union Pacific bonds
The Union Pacific bonds are a currency, which can be exclusively used as a payment in the Union Pacifc Shop.
UPB can be earned in different ways:
- With a low chance as job rewards (for all jobs)
- In the future as quest rewards
- As a reward in fort battles (there will be no more chests as rewards*)
- For delivering new special crafting recipies at NPCs (every 48 hours)
- As a reward via the new activity reward system
*Who earlier got a steal lined box now gets 3 bonds. For taking part in a fort battle as well as for the victory you get another bond. Winners can get a maximum of 11, losers a maximum of 10 bonds per fort battle.
The activity reward system
Players get a list with tasks they can fulfill each day. For each fulfilled task you get 1 USB. If a player makes it to complete 3 of the 4 tasks on 5 days in a week he gets additional bonds.
These tasks will be available at the beginning:
- Solve 4 quests
- Duel 4 players
- Do 10 NPC duels
- craft 3 items
If you fulfill 3 of these 4 tasks a day the day is marked as completed.
The list of tasks will be expanded in the future.
The Union Pacific Shop
Special items can be bought for UPB or nuggets in the Union Pacific Shop.
The UPS offers the following stuff:
- Various chests
We controlled all chests that were given out during the christmas event and adjusted them. Moreover there will be some additional chests. All chests contain a list of items, that drop with a certain chance. When opening a chest the system automatically chooses an item that the player will get. From some chests you get more than one item.
- Buff items
These items will give a by time or count of actions limited bonus. This bonus can be an advantage in duels or fort battles but also higher your labor points or refill your HP.
- More items
There will be more and different items in the UPS in the future.
There is a maximum of UPB/bonds you can have: 2000.
Special items in the UPS may be only available for a limited time or have a limited stock. We want to stress that the item you get is still depending on your luck
and there is always the possibility that you get an item you do not need.
We are confident that we found a fair system that will at the same time reward active players.
Adjustments to these features are always possible and we want to use the time until the update to listen to your feedback, answer your questions and discuss possible changes. We are looking forward to your constructive feedback!
