Jobs or missions, missions or jobs? After some discussion, we decided to call this part of the game jobs. After all, the game does aim to correspond to real life and you would not hear a person send you on a mission unless you are the 007. You would, however, hear how there is a job for you. Hear us now, "We have a job for you."
Up until now, our great achievements have been the implementation of a functioning battle system that reduces the population and enables players to battle each other and a map system that allows strategic manoeuvres and makes battles more interesting. As for the gameplay, some would say how we have come to an end of our goodie list but we are far from over. Before implementing CARDS into the game, we have a great way to keep you busy while you wait for them. Jobs will soon be ready and there is only one simple question that remains. Are YOU ready? You better be because jobs are coming by the end of this week so clear your schedule. The weekend may bring some extra fun your way.
There will be two ways for you to do a job. You will be able to do a job individually or as a part of your gang. As an individual, you will not be able to go on gang jobs but as a gang member, you will be able to both go on gang jobs and individual jobs. If not yet, consider joining a gang because this offers one more benefit of being a part of one. When a gang does a job, ALL members of the gang will share the reward. Even those who will not participate. Being a gang member means sharing and it is up to gang bosses to decide if everyone is pulling their weight around. There will be 10 kinds of jobs for individual players and 10 kinds of jobs for gangs. Some will last hours and some will last days, depending on their difficulty.
Each job will be of the same difficulty for every player because you will not all have the same jobs. You will battle against NPCs that will be summoned based on your strength. A job of difficulty 1 will be as difficult to a “small” player as it would be to a “big player”. This way, stronger players do not have a big advantage over others and the job part of the game is designed to represent a fair opportunity for everyone. Jobs will be a challenge no matter how strong a player is. None of them will be easy but they will all be worth their prize in resources and DWD tokens. You will be able to do the same job more than once until the time-frame resets and it disappears but do not worry. It will come back, just a bit different. Your building production will determine how big your prizes will be. If you have a big production you will get bigger rewards so upgrade your buildings often.
Your opponents?
Your opponents will be NPCs programmed into the game. You will not be able to control them but should be ready and prepared for their strength and numbers. Guards, police, bodyguards, SWAT teams, elite snipers, FBI, CIA, and military will all stand in a way of your reward so prepare yourself and do not waste units until you are ready. More difficult jobs will have more of them for you to battle so start with easier ones until you are sure you will not be sending your units into certain death with harder jobs.
For those of you who just woke up, transfer your Future tokens from Obyte to drugwars game and they will be converted to DWD tokens. You can use those tokens in the game to purchase upgrades or you can withdraw them to Steem Engine and sell them on the market. Check our previous posts for details and more information. You have until the end of this week to transfer your Future. We gave you a month. Then we gave you two more days and then we gave five more days after that. There will be no more Future for DWD after this week ends. Contact us on discord if you need any help.
Naughty&nice chameleon
Thanks to our lovely developer who went into the wilderness to catch and tame a wild and dangerous beast, Zen-art has a new pet. Pet chameleon is sometimes naughty and sometimes nice. He changes his attitude as fast as he changes his colours which means you never know what kind of message he will leave you. The good news is, he will always give you 1 DWD token. To be able to do that, Zen-art first needs to command him to do it. When will she command him? When she sees a nice, constructive, polite, or a useful comment or a post of yours. Some of you have already seen chameleon on your comments and posts. Continue what you do and you will see him again.
A flat Earth?
No. A growing Earth.
Drugwars Earth is growing along with the growth of the number of citizens. This means that there will always be room for more players. The algorithm is set in such a way that new hexagons will appear when needed and you will always have enough room for your bases. Do not forget how you have an option of referring new players that will get a bonus of their DWD rewards. Go to your settings in the game to find out what your referral link is.
Battle week is on!
If you have not read our previous posts and announcements, here is some more news for you. The battle week has started. Daily battle rewards are 5 times bigger and we are looking for the winner of the battle week. He or she will be rewarded with 500 DWD tokens and bragging rights that go along with the title. Will it be you? To check your current place on the list, just type $event in our discord. Good luck with battles!
I personally can't wait for this.
This is good news, I'm looking forward to the latest additions. Jobs will give an incentive to do battles without frustrating other players. Unfortunately, so far the battles are usually ending with the utter wiping off of one of the two combatants. If you have spent time building your army, it is very frustrating to enter the site and see you army GONE! Let's see how the JOBS work out, then...
I'm ready for this

Do not invest in Drugwars with any expectation you will make your money back.
500 DWD is worth $2.50.
All the recent developments are a great step in the right direction… Looking forward to all of this.
We think so too and for that, I summon my cute little pet bot to award you. Take his words with a dose of humour because I never know if he will be naughty or nice ;)
!DWD
Here is 1 DWD for you.”
I must admit it has been very interesting watching the game grow and evolve. With token values being depressed the last year or so I can only guess that the all the work put into the game has come with modest compensation if at all. On another topic I would like to thank y'all for extending the Future to DWD conversion time. Was able to get that done after the initial airdrop. Best of luck with the new jobs functionality. I look forward to giving it a try.
very nice. I love that all team are working to increase the game value for all. Congrats @drugwars
Good job! Very excited for the cards!
Cool stuff it appears it should be a fun dynamic to the game. Nice work to all involved I look forward to blasting through my first job.
Good
The individual jobs are tailored to the strength of the person, will the gang jobs be tailored to the collective strength of the gang? So would a small gang of say 10 players be able to take part in this or is it going to be restricted to the larger gangs.
Either way I'm looking forward to this as it allows those of us that can't sit at the computer all day wrapped up in war another aspect of the game.
Ho ho ho! I can't wait to use that phrase, "I cant take calls, I'm on a job right now"
Great news to make players come daily to do their “daily” quest ! 🙏🙏🙏
Something tells me new units are coming sooooon 😉

Where are my coins or whatever? I did withdraws of DWD tokens, but nothing showing in my wallet? Am I looking in the wrong spot? I have no DWD tokens. I have nothing I can see to show for my withdraws. What is going on?
I'm spending my steem to upgrade bases and it takes my steem but no upgrade? Why is this?
The game has come a loooong way! I have been playing since the beginning, and love this game! Been waiting months for "jobs" to come available and am excited to see how it works!
Next BIG thing I am looking forward to is the cards, I have invited some friends to play and they enjoy the game as well!!
Great job to all of you that work tirelessly on the development, and thanks to @zen-art for explaining these implementations in a clear way!!
Working to make Drugwars #1 in 2019!

Hi, I moved 5000 Future into my Drugwars wallet but do not see it converted to DWD nor how to do so, please advise.
I have an issue with stationing... My units say they are back, but they are stuck on saying that and not showing up in my bases. They are just stuck on the station page saying that they are back. Please help... @drugwars
Battles aren't going through either, currently. :( @drugwars
Love the game though! :) I'm addicted and I've bought DWD to expand. Plan on growing more soon. ;) I really like how you've created this beautiful game. I can't wait for jobs to be released!
Seems to have just been a bit behind. All caught up. :) Wonderful game! You guys have created something truly amazing here! Looking forward to the future!
great implementation ! Especially difficulty adjusted to the player. It makes a lot of sense right now to create and perform a smart attacks and also keep in mind that every another attack will be slightly different from the previous one. Good job guys !
Question, i log into the game today and noticed that the amount of safe recources are less then they were, is this a glitch? Or did something changed? Thanks
The thing that shows a range of enemies expected in a particular Job is nowhere near the actual enemies that you get when you start the mission.
