Please follow the Recap AMA to update more information about the project!

Part 1: Overall introduction

1.1. About Mr.Jay — Epic War First Creator and Ms.Chloe — Epic War Chief Marketing Officier

Mr. Jay: Hi, I am Jay Ng, the first creator of Epic War.

Epic War is a Decentralized Game Platform that will be the first of its kind to revolutionize the world of blockchain games. I’m reaching out to all crypto-lovers to support this 3D FPS Blockchain Role-Play Strategy Game to challenge the meaning of crypto gaming.

With our mission to power up the brave new world of gaming on a global scale, we are eager to have you join Epic War as we set out on this journey together.

Ms. Chloe: Hi, I’m Chloe and I’m in charge of CMO at Epic War.

With a background in marketing, I have had chances to help refine the narratives of companies across various industries. I have experienced this field for over 2 years, and still have a lot of things that make me eager to learn and earn more about the market. I recently joined Epic War to create “high-impact communications.”

Additionally, I’ll help craft compelling storylines to build the brand’s culture. Hopefully my playful yet on-brand creative will make a huge impact on the evolution of Epic War.

1.2. About Epic War project

1.2.1. General information about Epic War

Ms. Chloe: The idea of the game comes from a word: War, the very word sends a chill down most people’s spines. For some, it is a forgotten thing of the past, something from which we have moved on. But for others, it’s still a reality, even in this modern age. When nuclear war breaks out, who will save us? Who will step forward and fight for our world? That’s where Epic War comes into play. This is our story. Our epic tale of war against alien invaders and how mankind must rise up to meet this threat.

The players can experience the ultimate sci-fi game! Epic War is a blockchain online-based game, which implements strategy and action role-playing game modes. Join the Revolutionary army and fight for freedom in this online multiplayer shooting game, built on multichain.

Accomplish missions in PvE mode, and join up with other players online to battle each other in PvP mode. The game is free to play, and gamers can earn tokens while they play through PvP mode or eSports competitions or by trading items on a player-to-player marketplace.

Mr. Jay: Let me add up for our product:

Have you ever dreamed of entering a VR game and exploring the fantasy sci-fi world, which is operated by blockchain?

In the near future, we will release the biggest hit in gaming history — Epic War Metaverse. The decentralized world of Epic War is a futuristic gaming paradise where everyone can be an epic warrior, hunt for rare monsters, and try their hand at bounty missions. So far, free-to-play VR games have barely made it outside of VR; all VR games are paid. If a game offers free tokens and trading items to players, loot boxes can easily become gambling if no one knows whether they are buying something worthwhile. With this decentralized game, anyone can make discoveries about rare monsters or earn more tokens. Your strength determines how many items you get from a monster or a team fight at a time!

1.2.2. The killer points make the game greater than others.

Mr. Jay: Yes, our Killer Points are very different compared to other projects because Epic War is a VR MMORPG set in a war-torn epic fantasy universe. It’s free-to-play-to-earn for your daily dose of fun! In the game, you can build up your Guild, develop Character, gather Elite Armies, and fight against monsters or other players. Create an alliance with friends to conquer enemies. This Metaverse is not like any other; It’s a community-based game running by DAO, and you can have real ownership over your in-game assets.

Epic War will serve to provide an entire ecosystem for the players to experience MMORTS and the virtual reality gaming world. The ambitious journey of this project begins with multichain architecture in which players can play and earn $EWAR token in Metaverse blockchain and then can use those tokens to play other games in Metaverse VR.

Ms. Chloe: One more killing point that I want to add here is Epic War is designed to be compatible with Multichain Dapps and we will develop side-chain functions for players in the future.

Part 2: Mr.Jay and Ms. Chloe will answer questions from the community about Epic War

2.1. From @gospano26: Is the beta test version preparing? If so, how could I be the tester? and what is the benefit for beta testers?

Ms. Chloe: Epic War project is on our doorstep and we need to get ready for it. Epic War, a 3D blockchain FPS massively multiplayer strategy game that features stunning 3D graphics and an enormous depth, will be launching its beta test version in the near future (est. in this Q1/2022).

By applying for our Epic Tester program, you could be the best tester to help us improve the game and make it even more fun! If so, please take part in the beta test. We want your opinion of the game, and to hear from you about the gameplay elements you like or dislike most.

And you will receive exclusive bonus items for your help.

2.2. From @goldgoldme: What is Epic DAO? Please explain what Epic DAO is and how it works in the game

Ms. Chloe: EpicDAO will create and manage the Epic War ecosystem, deploying smaller decentralized autonomous organizations that will aggressively expand the ecosystem into new innovation.

To ensure that the game will always be fair for every participant, the players themselves will collectively control this democratic governance system via a Leader-Based mechanism. Council members from all around the world will be elected in an interactive voting process involving players and community members.

In the EpicDAO’s regulation, here is how it all works within the ecosystem:

1. How the Treasury is used

2. How the Foundation pool is used

3. How the Game mechanism is effective

In general, EpicDAO is the essential upgrade that will ensure a more decentralized and stable representative leadership. Instead of pooling 100% of your $EWAR tokens into electing one delegate, these tokens will be diluted with a voting weight distribution system. This mechanism will allow the power of our leadership to be held by individuals who have fewer resources.

2.3. From @ksenpote: Do you have plans to buy back the token? or is there any way to decrease inflation of the token amount like burning?

Mr. Jay: Thanks for the good question. We do have some financial plans to manage our game economy based on real-world monetary policy. The team can also buy back the token through an economic cycle. Burning will reduce the number of circulating tokens every month, while depreciation and tax functions can also make tokens more valuable. Our inflation regulations result in deflation, which leads to higher interests in token holding, increasing demand for $EWAR staking. Then we get a rise in price for the token. In other words, we create an ecosystem with controlled deflation and controlled inflation. Predicting the future market supply and demand is not easy, especially when it comes to something as large and complex as the crypto market. But we can somewhat make assumptions based on current trends.

In conclusion, Epic War economy is a decentralized marketplace made by gamers, for gamers. $EWAR, the native Epic War token is calculated to keep the value of staked tokens high enough to motivate both active traders and loyal holders of our community. The equilibrium between supply and demand can be described by basic economic principles as well as detailed market analysis.

2.4. From @win4lice: Most game companies generate revenue by allowing users to purchase items. However, Epic War is pursuing the F2P2E (Free to Play + Play to Earn) method, how does the company make money?

Mr. Jay: Indeed. It is our strategic move of Epic War. Unlike most recent NFT games, Epic War aims to delete barriers to real players who could play and experience the game without asking for an entry ticket.

Besides, the game also features fast-paced and fun action-packed battles where players trade or rent NFT items. Fast-paced battles ensure the player is engaged. The marketplace builds a thriving economy around the game and allows for the regular release of new content. Therefore, the main revenue stream for Epic War is from:

1. Marketplace fees

2. Premium NFT trading

3. Network usage fee (PvP Gameplay)

4. Deposited funds (Float)

5. Ads fee

2.5. From @theudbe: Please inform us of the partners and investors of Epic war, it would be a great help to consider the investment.

Mr. Jay: Yes, regarding investment, we are working on our partnership for Epic War (Meleap for AR/VR gameplay) and a few other top VC firms (Shima Capital, Vespertine Capital, etc.). Our backer Icetea Labs (https://icetea.io/) is a well-known firm from the blockchain industry. We are also working with the popular global KOLs and will leverage thousands of followers to bring more users to Epic War which will increase the daily active users of our game. We already have some top VCs that are interested in what we are doing and are currently working with them to see how we can bring them new users and our mission is to help millions of users around the world to enjoy the game, earn passive incomes and increase the usage amongst the blockchain game industry.

Part 3: Live Q&A between the community and speakers

3.1. From @soonuu77: The NFT market is a hot issue these days. Does Epic Ward have NFT elements? If yes, how will it be applied?

Ms. Chloe: This question is the concern of most people here I believe.

Epic War is an FPS multiplayer strategy ARPG that focuses on Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs).

you’ll have access to many different types of NFTs which will be used to craft and upgrade your skills in battle. NFT is embedded in the core gameplay such as being powerful weapons, and gears or exclusive maps. It allows players to trade or rent their assets freely on the marketplace.

In general, Epic War is a rogue-like NFT game. It includes multiple weapons, gears, maps, and other items that are developed on the blockchain. Rewards from NFT hunting and battles abundant in Epic War will bring you joy and profit.

3.2. From @bhlee4980: There have been a lot of security issues recently. Is your project free to hack? I’d like to know whether you’re conducting a security audit or not.

Mr. Jay: We are working to develop a safe and efficient platform that will be used worldwide. To be able to ensure the accomplishment of our goals, we use smart contracts to develop our IGO. We want to make it easier for potential customers to believe in our idea, so we hire auditors to validate each step of the process and ensure low-security rates.

Currently, several smart contracts exist for simple transactions and applications, but not for complex processes such as multiplayer video games. This is where our solution comes into play. Smart gaming contract is our solution to the problems which conventional smart contracts have. Our idea is based on the combination of three major blockchain technologies: native token, elliptic curve cryptography, and our own private key algorithm. Our development team has already created a prototype of our security bot.

When a website experiences a supply chain attack, a Denial of Service (DoS) attack is conducted on multiple fronts. In order to prevent further damage, the team has the ability to write smart contracts. The team will use Amazon Web Services (AWS) Lambda to conduct machine learning with trained AI. Within the platform, only authorized users will have access to this feature. These users are only able to execute and trigger the program if they meet the required criteria. In addition, every request must be signed with two forms of identification in order for the transaction code to be accepted.

Also, the team has developed special software to detect a hack. If the hack is successful, a signal is known as the “hack” block is sent to the Blockchain and the Hack tracker contract. The tracker then notes in the stolen account on which particular day, at what time, and from what IP address the hack was attempted. Hacking an ICO Smart Contract will immediately send all collected money back to its respective owner, as per the Blockchain rules.

3.3. From @ansondin: I think recently, which IDO platform you launch your project on has become so important. What platform does Epic War plan to use?

Mr. Jay: We have a good partnership with GameFi and Redkite

3.4. From @parkgwangeun: The Epic War team aims to develop VR gameplay, and if it is a VR game, I wonder if the Epic War team plans to advance to mobile games and if it requires a lot of computer specifications when playing VR games.

Mr. Jay: Epic War is the first multiplayer strategy game built exclusively for multi-devices: PC, mobile, and VR devices. It features a unique mix of action RPG and RTS gameplay mechanics. Assume co-op with other real players, focus on your missions and make use of powerful weapons to defeat the opposing guilds. Step into the role of a responsible commander, fight epic battles, collect powerful items, forge alliances with other players and rule the universe.

If you want some things in the game easier, this is not the game for you. Rather than making things easier, this war turns the difficulty way up. Just enjoy the first and best action RPG for any device because Epic War is not an easy game in any type of form. Do you want to kill enemies while they’re on their knees begging you to stop? Copy them over to another dimension and then banish them forever? Our goal is to make an online game that gamers can enjoy even on a small screen. That’s why we’ve built the battle screen, especially for smaller devices.

Part 4: Epic War’s speakers say goodbye and send thanks to the community

Ms. Chloe: Well, thank you @fireantico and the community for hosting us today! so many good questions! We really hope everyone can enjoy and benefit from Epic War.

It is born from the glory and admiration of traditional FPS games. Transcending the limits of existing games in the genre, Epic War will revolutionize the gaming industry with its massively FPS multiplayer gameplay and cutting-edge cross-system blockchain collaboration.
