Keep on chilling yourself guys, but i am afraid we will see DTB in this list https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001170731-Pending-Market-Removals-3-9-2018 one day, it reminds me 1ST, same story, permanent beta, no activity from devs on forums, just a few bagholders circle jerking.

Hi,

A very good point, there has to be a fine balance. But looking at Pokemon for example, they and similar games were able to release many new cards/creatures yet still retain the collectible quality and value.

See, unlike the card only based games, Augmentors game creatures are playable and upgradable plus since its first use, the creature will have all stats, so this adds another layer of desirability to the creature and also making sure that no two used creatures are the same as it will be very unlikely for 2 of the same creatures to have identical stats.

But yes, you are right and it is something the team are very aware of, each week they review many mobile games old and new, just like how one big company looks at rival companies, the Augmentors team examine carefully at what works and what does not work, it would be great if we could be a fly on the wall to see what happens in a day, everyone would be impressed by the work and high attention to detail.

Have a great weekend everyone.  Please keep your questions coming, thank you.

Thanks a lot for the blazing fast reply VintageBazaar!

In general it seems to me, the transfer speed and even the cost of the creature transfer should not be too important, as those creatures are supposed to be pretty valuable, and the act of 'handing your creature to the new master' is not something to be taken lightly and done every now and then Smiley

I guess the choice of the best chain to keep creatures on, is mostly up to the ease of usage. The one which makes it easier for average user/gamer should be the most suitable - unless the Augmentors tech completely hides all the tech details from the end user - as in that case the ease of use becomes secondary, and security becomes most important.

Anyway, thanks for the info, and... keep battling! Wink

But it can become problem if too many creatures get released. I know team said ICO creatures will be rare, but that does not say they will not create other creatures each week. This happens with the other game that uses XPY(and BCY)..they release new cards so often the rare ones dont really matter.

I read the creatures will be distributed as ERC20 tokens Undecided

I know ERC20 is widely popular (better to tell - wildly fashionable nowadays), so my position here would not be too popular, but I will express is anyway:
apparently Augmentors are moving from free, decentralized and secure Bitcoin chain to the less secure and not-decentarlized (Vitalik-centered) Ethereum... The BTC transaction spam is gone now, and BTC TX fees have dropped tremendously, so I am unsure of the reasons of the move. If the same kind of spam attack starts on ETH network, there will be the same problems as BTC had, so moving to ETH because of the low fees there doesn't seem to be a well thought decision.

Anyway, XCP or ERC20 - both will work moderately well, and nobody can know what will be the best in the long run, so back to my question:

are only creatures tokens transferred to be ERC20, or does the same refer to the DTB tokens too?

Hi,

Thank you foe your message and i have to agree with you, at first i thought it would be a good move for the cresture tokens only to move to erc token, but the more i read, im not so sure anymore, crypto kittes bought eth chain to its knees and they had to implement higher fees to get stuck transactions through. 

Counterparty works fine, but is lacking in development, it takes a long time to make progress and is more complicated tp issues tokens.

However another option has been suggested, so this is another reason for the delay in the creature token swap, the landscape is changing quickly and something more suited might be made available soon.

So its not set in stone yet, which direction the creature token will take.

I can confirm dtb is staying on xcp/btc chain. As you correctly point out, btc fees are super low and transactions much quicker now the spamming has been crushed.

Many thanks for your views, very much appreciated. Please make sure to join our telegram channel, link below.

A little update on the Signatures everyone.  

When viewed on mobile the logo was not looking correct (squashes and out of place).   Augmentors Game have a strong brand to live up to and the logo must match as close a possible.   So the designer and i are in the process of trying to edit the logo to make it fit on mobile, the one you see now (if it has a background) works on mobile devices also, but has a grey background, so trying to find a way to have the background there, but not visible, with BBCode we dont have many options, but we are trying our best, so stay tuned.

Wow. Thank you Vintage and Roslinpl the Forum Signatures look really Nice.  Really love the Augmentors Logo and the fact all images link back to important Augmentors Game links, like Website, Telegram and even Bittrex $DTB page!  Fantastic work!

I will have to post more to build up my little ranking to also be able to wear the signature with Pride! Will try and remember to also include these in Fridays update.    Also, we are aware that it will be nearly one year since the end of our successful ICO and plan to have a little something extra for all our loyal supporters so stay tuned.

Hello Bitcoin Talk Community,

This weeks, weekly update is ready and has important information about the creature token swap.

https://medium.com/augmentors/augmentors-creature-tokens-creature-swap-community-update-february-16-2018-3f550532cfd9

The landscape is changing and changing fast, we can see that the counterparty chain is not best suited to our need so we will be making the change from XCP chain for Creature token distribution to the Ethereum ERC token  (we have yet to make final decision on which ERC token we will use).

By changing over to ETH ERC we can easily distribute and creature tokens easily, saving time and money compared to xcp/btc chain.   We need the use the best suited chain and the evolution of ERC tokens is the perfect answer.   Due to this, there will be a delay while we make the transition.   

There are several good articles online about ERC tokens, one i found to have a good, clear explanation of ERC is:  https://medium.com/wepower/erc-standards-to-move-ethereum-forward-erc-20-erc-223-erc-721-e1712456449d

Please leave comments below and on medium we always read and take them on board and mention the best ideas in our board meetings.

#Keepbattling

PS: Alpha testing for DTB holders is on schedule and should be ready by the end of March as planned.


This is a very smart decision. The costs, and the waiting time really hold back counterparty. Maybe this will be fixed in the future, but choosing to move to the ETH chain is a very strong decision. It is unfortunate though that this will cause the creature token swap to be delayed, we have been waiting a long time already. But as long as the results justify the wait, it will be okay.

I will be excited soon when game launch is nearer. This has been a long time of anticipation but, I think the end results will pay off plenty. The art behind the released creatures is great. I am ready to claim with my ico tokens  Grin

Selling my Rookietokens on the DEX.

Thanks Panda

Hardly anyone uses the dex and we have members in telegram looking for tokens.

I will happily be a mod in a transaction. Ie. Both parties send tokens to me then i send on token or you can do it easily person to person if trusted and i will vouch for them.

Hi Justdox

ETA for Full game Release has always been Q3/Q4 2018.   It was originally end of Q3, but i suggested to the team to make it Q4 to give some breathing room for any unforeseen problems, that can easily occur with any developments. Unforeseen bugs and such.

There is a roadmap here > https://medium.com/augmentors/happy-new-year-community-update-january-5-2018-5d154dff4340

I have also asked the team if they can "beef-out" the Quarters and give more info per "Q".  As quite a lot happens per Quarter, most of which is given in the weekly updates there on Medium, so the Roadmap ATM is more like Chapters in a book, you have to read the chapters (weekly updates) to get a more in-depth view.  





Make sure to join our Telegram group, link in my signature below.  


Q1:  "Creature Swap"  Is for ICO Creature tokens to be "swapped" for the real playable creature.  Currently all ICO tokens are held in Counterparty wallets. You can still find one of two tokens for sale that people offer in Telegram chat.   But they are hard to find as it is close to being able to swap them for the creature, hardly anyone wants to part with them, especially seeing how much Cryptokitties are selling for and they are simply picture of "cute" cats that dont do anything.

So considering these Crypto kitties have traded  over $200k USD...  put things into perspective, how much a Augmented Reality, playable, awesome looking creature is worth.

The startup game was released in January 2017, there was no strong pumps due to small capitalization and a small number of coins, probably because team immediately said that the main development will be at the end of 2017. The price at the exchange for a long time kept above the price ico x2-x5, but fell heavily due to the news about btc's hardfork. So the coin continues to be below. We are waiting for releases.
