Competitive Integrity Comes First

HYPVP has always been built around one core idea: competitive integrity comes first. As we move closer to launch, we want to be upfront about how monetization will work on HYPVP, including what you can purchase and, just as importantly, what you cannot. This post exists to provide clarity, answer questions early, and make sure everyone understands exactly where the line is.


Our Philosophy

HYPVP will never sell:

  • Direct gameplay advantages that override skill-based outcomes
  • Power, stats, gear, or matchmaking manipulation
  • Paywalled mechanics with no free or earnable alternative

Every paid tier instead focuses on things that support the experience without affecting competition:

  • Cosmetics
  • Social features
  • Quality-of-life tools
  • Community involvement
  • Supporting long-term development

Lifetime Ranks

All core ranks on HYPVP are lifetime access, not subscriptions. If you support HYPVP early, that support stays with you permanently. While pricing may change over time, access to purchased ranks never expires.


VIP – $10 Lifetime Access

VIP includes:

  • Collectible Early Supporter Badge

Gameplay Balance

To be completely clear:

  • No rank affects damage, stats, loot, or win conditions
  • Dodge commands never apply to tournaments or cash cups
  • Voting weight only affects maps and modifiers, not outcomes
  • Ranked competitive modes remain fully skill-based

If a feature ever threatens competitive integrity, we will not ship it.


About Kits

Some HYPVP modes will feature selectable kits. Kits are designed to support different playstyles, not to guarantee wins.

  • Every kit has strengths, weaknesses, and counters
  • No kit replaces mechanical skill
  • All players can access kits through weekly free rotations and in-game performance and progression

Balancing will happen with community feedback, not behind closed doors.


Why Monetization Matters

Running HYPVP long-term requires ongoing investment in:

  • Servers and infrastructure
  • Anti-cheat and moderation tools
  • Tournament prize pools
  • Ongoing content development
  • Sustainable staff support

These tiers allow us to fund HYPVP without pay-to-win mechanics or aggressive monetization. If you choose to support the project, thank you. If you do not, you are still welcome here.


Final Notes

This system will evolve as HYPVP grows. We will continue listening, adjusting, and staying transparent every step of the way.

If you want to help shape what comes next:

  • Join the Discord
  • Share feedback
  • Be there when we launch

We can’t wait to show you what we’re building.
