As we progress towards the end of Operation Cadre and approach the official commencement of Operation Beta, here is an overview of all the latest happenings over the month of November to get you up to speed (in case you missed it!)

The month of November might have been highly chaotic in the overall crypto space, however over in DEFY we have been continuing to build the game behind the scenes to facilitate what would likely be the biggest game update release next month along with our Beta launch (that’s right, we are still building and going strong amidst the current climate across the overall space).

Community AMA Sessions

We held two AMA sessions over the past month where our CEO Brent Maxwell addressed the current concerns surrounding crypto as a whole, acknowledging recent events within the crypto space, as well as sharing more about upcoming development plans within DEFY, what to expect for the beta phase, and of course, answer all of the questions submitted by the community.

Both sessions took place over Twitter Spaces. Click on the following links to listen to the replay:

Alternatively, for your listening convenience, you may access all of our past AMA recordings via our Discord server under the #ama-recordings channel where you can also find timestamps to help navigate through the various topics addressed and questions asked throughout each session.

Operation Cadre Ends 13th December!

In the 65 days since Operation Cadre first commenced, a total of 34,776 brand new zones have been hacked around the world for the very first time! How’s that for exploring new grounds and making our mark known to Future Systems?

In addition to that, a total of 127,300 drones (both Collector and Hunter) were taken down during this period! Job well done, Operatives! Only 10 more days to go (as of writing) before we wrap Operation Cadre up and launch an exciting Operation Beta ahead.

The current total shared prize pool amongst Intel Operatives stands at 2,600,000 $DEFY (as of 30th November), with an additional 1,000,000 $DEFY at stake for finishing the existing collaborative mission on our Discord server.

In case you missed it, here is a reminder of the requirements to be eligible for a share of the total prize pool (to be fulfilled within the span of Operation Cadre)

Possess an Intel Operative Badge from the in-app Black Market

Hack at least 50 towers in total (of any security level)

Destroy at least 25 drones in total (of either type)

Game Updates Overview

From the ability to share your in-game stats and achievements onto socials to the addition of a loot scanner (to be released soon) as well as a whole bunch of bugs being fixed, a new engineering-focused article has been published to cover all of the changes the app has underwent throughout the month of November.

DEFY Spotlight

Featuring mentions of DEFY across various platforms over the past month.

A brand-new Operative (Agrante) has recently joined the revolution and took the time to share his initial experience playing DEFY for the first time and share his thoughts with the following well written review:

Thank you for the support Agrante, and we are glad to see that you had a memorable time with the game!

In addition to that, we have another video sharing more about our game by The Buffessor.

Operation Beta commences 14th December

The month of December is quickly shaping up to be our biggest one yet, with several key gameplay features set to be released alongside the official launch of beta. From launching our very own marketplace and the release of drone chassis, to the nanoforge and crafting system, expect a lot of new elements of gameplay to explore in the coming month!
