Introduction
WAR FIELD is the first online multiplayer FPS game you play to win cryptocurrency.
Problem
Traditional online gaming companies have no practical way of letting players withdraw in-game currency and, for example, sell it to other players or use it in other games.
If you stop playing, in-game currency bought or earned is essentially wasted, something that any gamer should be familiar with.
Solution
WAR FIELD is building a new blockchain gaming economic platform and WAR FIELD is the first game to showcase it.
WAR FIELD uses ERC20 GOLDER (GLDR) tokens for in-game purchases.
A very interesting feature is that players must stake GLDR on “their life” to play a match. Whoever “kills” or “injures” a player in the game can win their opponent’s GLDR.
WAR FIELD is a game of skill with no element of chance so gambling is not involved.
The GLDR stake mechanic promotes competitive gaming purely based on players’ skill.
WAR FIELD is already available (ALPHA version) on Chrome and Firefox browsers.
No installation is required and new players get free 100 GLDR to try the game.
GLRD acquired during the token sale can be used immediately to play and buy in-game items. After the token sale, withdrawal of earned / saved GLDR will be available which can be sold on exchanges or using the Ethereum network.
In the future, other games will use the GLDR economic platform and it will be opened for other game developers to join.
Product
WAR FIELD, unlike many gaming blockchain projects out there, offers a game that is already available to be played now (ALPHA version).
Players can get GLDR now and use it to play, and buy weapons and ammunition.
GLDR will gradually be able to be used for:
● Buy in-game goods like ammunition, weapons, armor, and other items
● Buy styling or enhancement items for one's character
● As an entry fee for special in-game events like tournaments
3 new battleground maps and a full marketplace will be available by end 2018.
WAR FIELD will also be available on iOS, Android, Xbox and Playstation in 2019.
Team
The team currently consists of 9 core members and 10 advisors.
The team has relevant software and design development, and some blockchain background.
The gaming development experience is not clear as two of core member with gaming development backgrounds don’t have their Linkedin profiles available.
The game is already available to be checked but there’s uncertainty regarding its future development potential when it comes to compete with many other big FPS titles out there.
The advisory team looks very strong with most having experience with big gaming companies like EA Games.
Token Sale
The GLDR token pre-sale is already open and tokens are available at huge discounts (50% until July 19, for example).
The token sale lasts until November 15 and discounts decrease every 1-2 weeks.
Total supply 2.571 billion
Token sale 70% (1.8 billion)
Token price 1 GLDR = $0.01
Soft cap $3 million
Hard cap $12 million
With the total supply of 2.571 billion, GLDR will have a market cap of around $26 million.
If GLDR reaches Enjin Coin or WAX market cap, it has gains potential up to 5x, or up 8x if bought during pre-sale now with a 50% discount.
GLDR can be bought now with ETH, BTC and LTC, and be used in-game immediately.
Withdrawals will be available after the token sale; exchange listings expected by Q4 2018.
Why Blockchain
Players are able to withdraw GLDR tokens (after the token sale) that they save or earn into their ERC20 wallets, and freely sell them on exchanges or using the Ethereum network.
Once transferred to the game, GLDR is managed by the Golder platform.
All in-game transactions are recorded on the game’s internal blockchain and are handled by a tamper-proof internal database that ensures security, transparency, and data integrity.
Cons
Partners
No partnerships yet but the advisory board have considerable background with big gaming companies like EA Games, and big game titles like Medal of Honor, which should help take WAR FIELD in the right path.
Competitors
Although there’s a ton of traditional FPS games out there, what makes WAR FIELD exciting is that the stakes are real as players must stake GLDR on “their life” to play.
WAR FIELD chose a FPS game to start as shooter games represent 27.5% of all videos games sold in USA alone in 2016.
In the blockchain space, there’s already a substantial amount of gaming dedicated tokens like WAX, Loom Network, Enjin Coin, but none have quality games to play.
Conclusion
Presentation: 5/5
Project: 4.5/5
Team: 4/5
Rating: 4.5/5
Just the fact that WAR FIELD is the first FPS game in the cryptocurrency space, that is already available to play, is amazing!
The Crypto Kitties game last year shown how people are craving for real-use case games with cryptocurrency and now with WAR FIELD can provide that with more action.
If WAR FIELD is to get the same Crypto Kitties hype, which is very likely, than WAR FIELD is placed to be the first successful FPS game using blockchain!
FPS games and games like PUBG and Fortnite are hot at the moment and WAR FIELD might attract more people to try cryptocurrency; Skilled players can potentially make a living with the GLDR gaming economy.
Surely there’s bored people out there with some crypto that would love to do get some ”hits”. If not, WAR FIELD looks to be a great investment on hype potential alone regardless.
