BH2020 SURVIVAL COMPETITION

This is a "valor-skill" challenge that will allow you to jumpstart and make your mark in the world of BeachHead. Not just fun and games, but a true challenge of your skills and endurance. Everything from here onward is going to be connected -and consequential- in the full version of the game. This is the first step in the evolution of the game. Users can wait for the full version (late spring) or get started now and get ahead. Getting in now you pay less than half while helping us with the development. Obviously, we encourage you to participate now and help us out, but make no mistake you're not missing a beat and you'll be playing the game at full tilt.



[h3]RULE ADJUSTMENTS[/h3]

Given what we have learned from the first contest, we realized that we need a leaderboard database outside of Steam to run the contest properly. The Steam leaderboard is not flexible enough to reset the contest without wiping out the scores, and we don't want to do that. WE ARE NOW WRITING THE CODE TO DO JUST THAT, AND WE'LL BE MAKING A NEW CONTEST ANNOUNCEMENT AHEAD OF TIME, MOST LIKELY IN APRIL.

  • What is it: Survival mode means that you play non-stop until you die (game over). It's all or nothing and it has to be all on the same game save. Your top score gets recorded along with the waves you survived and the time used. Your total score along with your name and profile photo will show on the BH (and Steam) LeaderBoard and in your profile score tab.

  • Timeline: The timeline is open, players can enter anytime by clicking on the "survival" button and start playing. Every month (at the end of the month) we will tally up the best players' scores and proceed to award designated prizes to the TOP TEN players (please see illustrations below). The first competition starts now and will end on February 27 (2021).

  • Rules: Players can enter anytime by pressing the "survival" button. There are no restrictions, you can play it anytime and try to beat your top score as many times as you want. Your highest score remains recorded so you are not set back just because you had a bad run. Anyone can participate, but only legal owners will be able to benefit from rewards and collect their prizes (proof of purchase required).

  • Required: An active profile and email for verification and proof of legal purchase.

  • Who wins: Top ten players to show up on the scoreboard at the calendar ending date of every month.

  • How to Win: The better you are and the more you play and practice the better you'll get and survive the longest. Practice and hone your skills and then focus and play your best game.

  • What you Win: Above all, your score will get you a rank which, in turn, comes with in-game privileges. Same thing with medals and decorations. The higher the scores, the higher the rank and the prestige of the medal. If you die a lot that's okay, you'll receive a Purple Heart regardless.

[h3]REWARDS & PRICES[/h3]



Rank: Rank is of extreme importance in Beachhead as it will allow access to weapons and features others cannot access. Rank determines your hierarchy and prestige status in the game.



Medals: Heroes are recognized and rewarded in BeachHead. Your medals are very important in the world of the game. People will look up to you and your accomplishments and having a good reputation will follow you all the way to the full version of the game.



Badges: Badges are to give you status and belonging to a class. At the core level, everyone needs to be a Citizen, after that comes being a soldier and a defender. Not everyone has to a soldier, but everyone over the age of (13-45) has to serve in the Defense Force (BDF), or in some defense capacity supporting the fighting force. Everyone is welcome to join the fight at the front of course unless there's big trouble and everyone has to fight.



BHC credits: 10,000 BHC will be rewarded to each competition's top-ten winner and 1,000 BHC each to the rest of the top ten contenders. BHC is the in-game currency that allows you to buy in-game objects, weapons, and accessories. For the time being, the BeachHead economy is focused on game items that relate to combat. However, BHC is not only the in-game currency but the currency of the entire BeacHead universe. Once the BH CITY opens later in the year, players will be able to use their money to buy property and "civilian" lifestyle items.



BH Merch: In addition to the top survival scores awarded above (once a month), BH Merch items will be awarded (raffle) among the winners. BeachHead front wear is pretty cool from what you can see. It's all high-quality and designed to fit well and suit you. You can buy the items yourself later on, but why not take the chance to earn them right now.
