Topic: [ANN] Age of Rust - Blockchain Adventure Game w/ RUSTBITS and GAME CARDS - page 5. (Read 60105 times)

You have a great community of shared players but came in my mind how many enthousiasts you lost by not choosing the best tool for coin developement what put many other obstacles (it means that at that time there was no long term vision for the coin)
A basic part of my ask is about token holders in Dex how would they convert their tokens by the new one? I think this will be the most difficult part and may take more long time. I can't consider this changement as an adjustment thus it turns on a full new vision (new project)

You should know that you will get tokens only when ICO will come to the end and plus several days for token accounting. As I know, it is worth participating in more then ten Airdrops to get normal profit.

I don't think it will be an easy task to make this big changing while the game is still under-developement. I remember when you announce that the token will be used for other games. Please explain more about the changement to ERC token or put links in the announcment op that i still find nothing about this update.

Sure, you can read more about the announced change in the medium blog post, which is the announcement of moving from counterparty to an erc token:

I agree, it's not a cakewalk, but it's something that needs to be done, it's something that players and the community are asking for in order to move forward. With respect to the token conversion process, I brought on another developer to just focus on the erc token contracts. The target date for having the token contracts completed and a process by which token holders can exchange counterparty tokens for erc20 tokens is slated for end of Q3 this year. The intent is still to have other games use and work with our tokens, that's still something that's in the works with other game developers right now. We have a great community of shared players in the crypto puzzle game space right now and it's growing. Moving to an erc token opens up the doors to interchanging tokens within games that are ethereum-based. There's more ethereum based games in dev than there are counterparty games right now and a lot of game asset trading platforms are ethereum only as well.

Here's a clip showing some of the play test using the 3d engine for the game:

More clips and behind the scenes work are up on twitter too.

In next 5 days second round of burning tokens is going to take place. I see dev has said website is going to be updated at the same time these days. Stuff is really cool and limited supply will surely play its role to help the market lift up. Although it is more than slower than I thought but with cool games future is looking full of success.

It was there until April 1, CMM upped the volume level to $100k per day to stay listed. The entire counterparty DEX itself will be dropped at some point as well since the entire exchange and all it's assets don't more than 100k per day. While not the only reason, it was one of the reasons why we're changing over to an ERC token.

Due to low exchange rate they had to remove it from the search.No need for any worry the dev explained there will be a swap with Ethereum tokens and the game will get updated with 3D assets.Those are super cool and exciting news i'm sure it will fix the price and make it easier to get on an exchange since exchanges doesn't have a problem with ETH tokens .

Rustbits- not in the search engine Cryptocurrency Market Capitalizations??

this is the right decision, without exchange project will die.

Yeah, some people can use the DEX with little or no issues, others have had some troubles getting xcp, etc easily. Many gaming projects in the blockchain space are either building on eth or moving to it. At least by moving to eth, the door opens up again to being available for adding to an exchange, with counterparty, it was a closed door. Targeting Q3 this year for the swap process to start. 

sometimes a very easy thing you think is not necessarily easy for others
after migrating to etherum platform i hope rustbit can get listed on central exchange
so, when swap process will happen?

Sorry about the decrease here in the forums, I tend to put most of the updates up on the other platforms, discord, webcasts, or with partner sites. Here's a few recap updates that are probably key ones:

Quick updates:
-A 4 BTC puzzle reward was added to Age of Rust in Jan
-Update 1 was completed in March (you need cards to explore about 15% of the game)
-Partnered with Blockade Games, Pineapple Fund, and Atari Movie to create Hack & Hash for Pineapple Arcade (1 remaining 100k rustbits prize)
-Recently signed an NDA with Microsoft (I can't say more than that)

In the not so awesome news, yes, rustbits fell off the updates for coinmarketcap recently due to falling below $100k per day in trading. Not being able to get the coin listed on exchanges has been disheartening because, well, the exchanges don't want to list counterparty assets. I know that's tough for the counterparty fans here to hear, but it's the truth of things. Firstly, I'm a big believer in counterparty, I think it's the easiest platform to use for developers. However, from the player/buyer perspective, players have had not such as easy time being able to trade btc/eth for rustbits and or the cards. Less than $800 (as recognized by cmc) for *all* counterparty tokens has moved through the DEX for transaction volume in the last 24 hours. I've tried to get rustbits added to Bittrex (and just about every other exchange out there) but they just don't want to add any more counterparty tokens.

Also, I was at the Game Developers Conference this year and there were several blockchain game exchange token platforms at the conference this year, they're all Ethereum based. Counterparty was the gaming friendly platform, but that tide has turned and everything is ERC20 or ERC721 now. So, while I'm a huge banner waving fan for counterparty, it's time to have an open mind and change.

What's next:
-Token migration (counterparty to Ethereum): Those of you familiar with STORJ did something very similar, so you'll be able to exchange your rustbits for ERC20 tokens and the cards will more than likely be converted to ERC721 (as opposed to ERC20). You'll have to go to a website, send your rustbits to an address and then the new token will be sent to your ethereum address. All the details haven't been worked out yet, include game support for both blockchains (in the current beta only) for those players that don't want to convert/update to Ethereum. I don't have a date for this yet, likely sometime in Q3 of this year. As soon as the plan and details are available, all the info will be released, including here.

-Age of Rust: We have another update coming in May, which will have a couple of fixes and the updated UI that a few of you may have seen in Discord.

We also took a lot of feedback in the early weeks of the beta to heart. While we added a new navigation menu to the game, new players didn't still quite understand that the retro aspect of the game. "How do I play?" and "what do I do to move" are still common. Players wanted a 3D environment to move around in, so that's what we're going to do in the final version of Age of Rust, deliver the experience as 3D game.

Here's an early preview:

For the last times i checked about age of rust, i notified the decrease of updates about the developpement as the oken has been recently removed from coinmarketcap due to less circulating supply. It's almost about one year since the start of this project and it's still under developpement despite all the work made by team. I still dislike the DEX platform which is may be considered as a bad platform choice.

No need to switch to another chain just in order to be able to trade game assets or rustbits directly for BTC. This is now possible with the new integration of BTCpay in the freewallet.io implementation of the Counterparty DEX. Those that already have donated to this wallet's donation address or bought one of the dev's Rare Pepe Cards called XCHAINPEPE now have full access to BTCpay and simplified trading on the DEX from inside freewallet. If you have not yet donated to development of this wallet, please do so now and enjoy the advantages of the new additions.

give this project some months and see where the price will hit,hope dev keep up the good work

it is good that the toker appears on exchanges. I'm happy, now the demand will grow

absence of exchanges within 1 year, "A good exchange means that your chances of taking your place in the market are high enough because you have access to investors and liquidity."
  "If you do not go to certain exchanges, you will enter exchanges of the second rank, which means that your access to investors will be limited" 

Your project was brought to my attention today, via Twitter due to the Puzzles, i think this is a really god idea to draw attention to your project, so keep up the good work on Social media it will pay off in the end with dedication and determination.

Going to give it a try and see if i can figure out the puzzles.   Keep up the good work.
