With the recent update of Moonkarts, it is now encouraging players to race more despite the race equipment disparity. Just so you know, before only the top two players are rewarded with ranking points, 20, and 15 respectively. The 3rd - 6th place are deducted with points (-15 and up).
But with the recent update, all players in the race are now rewarded with ranked points. Even you are all have 6 players in a race, you all still have points. These are the new point system:
- First place - 10 pts
- Second place - 8 pts
- Third place - 5 pts
- Fourth place - 3 pts
- Fifth place - 2 pts
- Sixth place - 1 pt
For me, with this new rating system, the reward pool doesn't drained fast which means players can still play and grind and get juicy rewards. With the pts for the first place getting reduced, I am thinking this will be a good reserve for all players to grind. As we know, reaching 5k pts is the ultimate play as players would really love to get that Colony earning rewards per game.
Many more players are looking into buying MoonKart stuff right now. The problem here is that the cards really have less liquidity here. This is a problem because the balance isn't there anymore. There are three - five people who wholds 80% of the total cards released. This means like a monopoly of rewards are being raked.
What I like about the game development right now is that the team listens to all of the request from the community. They listen, assess, and implement the necessary changes. I think this is good and that I can see a better layer of trust from the community.
