    Time will tell. I'm having flashbacks of playing the card game in Final Fantasy 8. Good times indeed! :shamefullyembarrased:

    Looks great thanks!! Are this able to be placed on the wall as well? If not can you create a picture frame (craftable) for them? For those that will be just collecting these would be kind of cool to have a full set frame on the wall. Kind of the same idea as current blue print books are setup. Also will there by any type of book for these cards as well to save storage space?

    Can't wait for update! great work!

    If they work like blueprints, they should work on tron towers and green/red displays? Other wall option would be nice though.

    Its A Dance Card so you can Gangham with Ned Kelly Smuggler Simmilar to the Big Industries Reward ;D shamless kelly addiction comming out.

    On a more seriose note we will have to wait and see I guess - I was more tempted by the smuggler rifle to be honest ;D wonder how long Dylan took to get that of Neds grubby hands.

    Zooming on the image i think i can read passport in red then the blue part looks like IFN and then the bottom part of the card has arkadia studios logo- there was a hint that there might be not just be sea monsters but an island to visit in the most recent radio interview - maybe this is whats required to access but again only guessing at the moment.

    This VU is going to be pretty interesting thats for sure

    If you do make em go in to a book or other type of carrying case/storage thing for show eventually, it may be interesting if it has different 'covers' as more cards are collected, similar to the way that blueprint books do (at least the ones from calypso do that - not sure if Ark bp books do that or not since I haven't filled all of mine yet, if not, hopefully that can be added to ark bp books too).

    New Component book:
    book - new.jpg

    Component Book almost completely full:
    books.jpg

    It might even be a cool idea to use that 'new cover as card book fills' idea to do something special like give a little bonus buffer or something to those carrying around half full collections, 3/4 full collections, or complete sets of cards vs those that have only one card, etc. Give folks an 'in game' reason to collect more cards. That way the benefit of having more than one card is something being done in game through game mechanics instead of using forum politics...

    Also might be nice if the whole case could be traded with the cards in them as bp books can't do that (yet).

    I think a book for each edition, or a generic card book is really important. I have too much in on storage as it is and the boxes are only a partial solution as I have to search through many boxes to find a particular thing I am looking for.

    My question is are these just virtual cards in game or are they Real Life cards you can get if you loot them?

    Next question will there be only a very strict amount of each one of these ever made or given in and out of game, being it is considered collectible and all?

    Also are you going to be super dropping them for shared loot mob events or will they be more in the normal loot pool?

    I ask last question as I very much dislike how MA and PP's distribute winnings from these shared loot events, although fun, they are pretty much a complete PED loss for me every single time I participate. And I as a player am tired of dumping my PED participating in them to be what seems to be just distributed to the upper ubers hunting the shared loot mobs, I'll never be able to compete with these people. If you do plan to dump crap loads in shared loot mobs and less in normal loot I will probably not participate in abtaining them at all.

    Yeah the more dps take the objects it seem, all what is worth it's

    Low dammage : you tag a little and get a few back often positive
    high dammage : you deal the most dammage and get the crazy items loot (UL stuff, ESI ... ect)

    and

    medium dammage : you just waste your ped and get a few shrapnel back
