Dear community, we bring you an important update of Exobots.

The team’s vision regarding the Beta release also meant the arrival of the Marketplace and the NFTs, which gave way to the blockchain version of the game.

Due to the current market situation, we believe it is convenient to bring the launch of our Marketplace and Exobots NFTs closer to Play and Earn. We are firmly convinced that a quarter of separation between both features could be counterproductive for the EXOS ecosystem, so we have decided to delay the Marketplace to mid-Q4 and bring it closer to the P2E as two events that will be launched almost together to give them the importance they need. In this sense, it has also been decided that the EXOS token will be the token to be used in the Marketplace and not BNB or BUSD.

Today we continue to work on the first IGOs on various platforms that will be announced as soon as the date approaches. These will be the first Exobots creation events and from that moment on, all the merging process will fall on the owners of the assets.

Before all these updates, it is worth mentioning that our team is designing a deep and great artistic change that aims to remodel the current systems in Exobots, although not affecting the Gameplay. The visual part of the game will be much more attractive, the Exobots will be better differentiated and a much more eye-catching interface will be designed for the user. All these changes will further amplify our vision that Exobots will be perceived as a real videogame, even outside the P&E environment.

Another of the great new features that we are impatiently waiting for is the PVP mode, which thanks to this restructuring, would be released during the Alpha version, instead of the Beta.

For all this, our new Roadmap would be as follows:

• Q2 2022: Token launch
• Q2 2022: Exobots: Omens Of Steel Alpha
• Early-Q4 2022: Exobots: Omens Of Steel PVP Alpha
• Early-Q4 2022: Exobots: Omens Of Steel Restyling
• Q4 2022: Marketplace
• Q4 2022: P&E
• Q4 2022: Exobots: Omens Of Steel Beta
• Q1 2023: Exobots: Omens Of Steel Release v1.0

During these months of deep development of the game, we have realized that the minting calendar elaborated at the end of 2021 has become obsolete and for this reason, we needed to update it to create a more realistic and effective ecosystem. Also, all wallet addresses will be publicly available so that users can check the minting calendars.

In this regard, the team is considering certain measures:

- Seed, Private and Biswap IDO would remain unchanged as they have completed their vesting periods.

- Strategic presale will remain unchanged.

- The team’s tokens will start to be released with the same inflow 8 months later than agreed. Starting the release schedule in September 2023 instead of January 2023 as planned.

- The 2M Liquidity Pool tokens are tokens for the creation of a new pool on another DEX or another blockchain, as we at Exobots intend to be a multi-chain play, thus delaying their release to March 2023.

- Play to Earn would start its token release in December 2022 instead of August 2022.

- Staking rewards tokens would move to start their release in February 2023.

- Advisors would stop its release in October and delay its release by 6 months.

- Ecosystem funds would start release in September 2022 but would be delayed to January 2023.

- Marketing funds would remain on a slower release schedule, moving from 8M EXOS in 5 months to 8M EXOS in 12 months starting in November 2022.

As you can see in the following links, the allocation of the holders remains unchanged, while those associated with advisors, ecosystem funds, marketing, team and liquidity pool would be modified in some aspects, being the part of the team the most delayed due to our deep confidence in the project. Play to Earn and Staking rewards would suffer delays to adapt to the new Roadmap.

CONCEPT AND REPUTATION

Play to Earn NFT games are currently booming in the gaming community. The times are changing, and this unprecedented model of games in which players are able to earn money by playing is not something that can be ignored, causing even large companies such as Square Enix and Ubisoft to talk about them.

However, it is a fact that many have seen an opportunity in this to try and make quick profit from launching low-quality games with no long-term plans to keep them running and attract the community interested in this new gaming model, resulting in a huge disappointment for everybody expecting something way more solid, the loss of money for many players who invested in them, and a very bad reputation for the play to earn NFT gaming industry.

ECONOMY

The current design of the NFT games mentioned above also causes the economy to crumble sooner than later, making it unsustainable in the long run. This is caused by how they are meant to work as pump&dump tokens, being games focused on attracting new members with the promise of easy, generous earnings in a short time with no real support and work behind them to keep the project up and alive for a longer time.

And this model works at the beginning, since for as long as there are more incoming new players than the already active ones, it means the money keeps being pumped in so the latter can dump it for themselves. However, this economy system falls apart once the curve of new players and active players begins to shift the other way around and the incoming money begins to slow down, and the circulating tokens see their value drop. And not only that, but the ROI system often used in the current NFT play to earn projects of few hours or days are also very harmful, as it only adds to that promise of quick, abundant money return while it ends up being one of the main reasons why this model doesn’t work.

This ultimately results in the project’s end, as the players into the game desperately look for a way out, while new players aren’t attracted to such a risky project anymore.

PAY TO JOIN

The last main issue we’ve detected is the requirement to pay to join the game, as it usually requires the player to either purchase tokens, NFTs or the like in order to join at all. And since the game’s economy is decentralized, depending on the moment in the market, this price may be very high, creating a barrier not everyone is able, or willing to overcome, causing many possible players to stay out of the community, which ultimately harms the project because a proper flow of new players is absolutely needed for the game to prosper.

EXOBOTS SOLUTIONS TO NFT GAMES ISSUES

CONCEPT SOLUTION

The first thing we need to fix in order to change how the community will perceive our game is to set and focus thoroughly our foundational premise:

Exobots: Omens of Steel is, above anything else, a videogame

As such, the team plans to create a high-quality product with absolute dedication, with rich lore, different game modes, deep and entertaining mechanics to craft, merge and build squads, and so on. The game will receive events, updates, patches and new content on a normal basis during its lifecycle, and it will be aiming to stay attractive and active in the long run.

To this end, Exobots will be treated primarily as a videogame that the community wishes to play because it fulfills its main goal: be entertaining, fun and competitive, while not as a mere tool to make some quick money and relegating its game nature to a second plane. Instead, we will treat the play to earn feature as just one more of the alluring traits of our ambitious project, which will reward players who enjoy playing the game with some money thanks to this new NFT gaming model.

ECONOMY SOLUTION

At this point, it is clear that we need a new economic model for sustainable Play To Earn games.

Introducing Play To Earn 2.0

To prevent the token’s value from falling and leaving investors and holders stuck with it, the game’s token, EXOS, will be usable to purchase certain boosts and features to quicken the player’s progress, though everything will be available for free if you spend enough time to get it. This way, the economy is in constant decentralized circulation and granting incentives to the players to keep using it.

On the other hand, the marketplace, in which players will be able to trade with pieces, resources and Exobots will work in BNB, ensuring this way the currency stability and giving the economy system a much more solid ground to stand on. Of course, nothing keep users from exchanging their EXOS at any moment they desire.

To fix the ROI issue we mentioned in the previous section, and to avoid bot exploits, we will limit the rewards obtained from the play to earn feature to how much each player is able to craft and sell at the marketplace and a certain % of the incoming volume to distribute through the missions mentioned above, meaning this will indeed allow the player to enjoy that extra trait of our game to make some money by playing it, but not in unsustainable amounts.

PAY TO JOIN SOLUTION

In order to avoid an entry wall that prevents new players from joining, Exobots will be free to play.

Exobots: Omens of Steel will be free to play for everyone

Buying equipment or new Exobots will only be optional. We expect engaged and committed players will contribute more to the economy in the long term.

EARNING STREAMS

The first thing to note is that there won’t be a rewards token. Previously we were considering a token called MCE that was going to serve this purpose, but from now on, this is no longer the case. EXOS will be the only token in the Exobots ecosystem.

Players will be able to earn in three different ways:

• Selling game items in the market place
• Daily missions where we share part of the proceeds coming from the token transaction fees
• EXOS allocation reserved for top players on the P2P leagues

Investors can earn money too via EXOS staking.
