We announced a fragment reward data model before, on Nov. 14. We found out that model is not good enough.

There is no difference between level 1~level 20, level 21~level 40, level 41~level 60. While the Metamon above level 21 have too many fragments reward. These result in that, on the one hand, high-level Metamon can earn a large amount of fragments, and the release of new Metamon is too fast. On the other hand, the low-level Metamon are still struggling in the lack of Potions. The situation has to be changed as soon as possible.

We already updated the odds of opening eggs by decreasing the odds for Normal Metamon and increasing the odds for Potions. It is not enough. We will take more actions in the following 60 days.

Nov. 25 — Deploy the new fragment reward data model and the experience system

New Fragment Reward Data Model

We will introduce the “Daily Average Fragment Reward (DAFR)”. Each level has a different DAFR. The higher level the Metamon has, the greater the DAFR value. Details are shown in the below table.

DAFR is designed based on the principle of statistics. The fragments a Metamon actually earns will deviate from the theoretical value. But it is enough to guarantee that the higher level the Metamon has, the more fragments she earns.

Take level 1 Normal Metamon for example, if a level 1 Normal Metamon challenges 20 times a day and wins them all, she will earn 400 fragments on average. If she loses them all, she will earn 200 fragments on average. If a level 1 Normal Metamon wins 70% of all challenges, she will earn 340 fragments on average.

New Experience System

Each level will need a different amount of EXP to level up. For example, a Metamon needs 100 EXP to upgrade from level 1 to level 2, and needs 390 EXP to upgrade from level 59 to level 60. It will need 14,455 EXP in total for a new Metamon to level up from level 1 to level 60. Details are shown in the above table.

The EXP that a Metamon can gain from each challenge remains to be: 5 EXP when win and 3 EXP when lose. If the challenge win rate is 70%, a Metamon can gain 88 EXP every day. Therefore, under the new experience system, it will take at least 160 days for a new Metamon to upgrade from level 1 to level 60. The higher level the Metamon has, the harder she can level up.

In addition, we will introduce the EXP accumulation function” for all Metamon. If your Metamon can not get level-up due to lack of Potion, she can still accumulate EXP to a reasonable high value(e.g. 600 EXP) from the challenges. Those EXP won’t be wasted. You can upgrade for multiple levels at one day when you have enough Potions and your Metamon has enough EXP.

We will shut down the service of the “Metamon” game from 18:00 PM UTC, Nov. 25 (2:00 AM SGT, Nov. 26) to deploy the above new fragment reward data model and the experience system.

Nov. 26 ~ Dec. 10 — Solving leftover problems

After the deployment of the new fragment reward data model and the experience system, every player can play the game for free. There will be no charge of uRACA in the game for the following few days from Nov. 26.

In the meantime, we will try our best to solve all leftover problems in 2 weeks.

1) All #RACA that have been overcharged in the previous version of the game will be refunded into the player’s accounts.

2) All present market and game issues will be fixed and all missing assets due to those issues will be found back and refunded into the player’s accounts.

The specific time when the “Metamon” game will be charged again will be announced separately. How much uRACA will be charged for each challenge will be determined by the price of #RACA at that time.

Nov. 29 ~ Jan 2022 — Continuously improve the entire economic model of the “Metamon” game

We will continuously improve the entire economic model of the “Metamon” game.

The production speed of Metamon Eggs and the odds for Normal Metamon will be reduced to low level through 2~4 rounds of production halving plans, while the supply of Potions will be adjusted to fulfill the level-up demands more and more. The odds of Yellow Diamond and Purple Diamond will also be adjusted to fulfill the demands. The specific data model is to be determined based on the future market.

We will continuously stimulate player’s desire to upgrade the Metamon in the long-term.

We will continue to add new gameplay in new versions of the “Metamon” game. The new gameplay will lean towards higher-level Metamon. We will continue to lower down the upgrade costs for Metamon too. What’s more, the high level Metamon will be beneficial in USM Metaverse.

RACA Punk

We will award our “Metamon” game players with one more trophy NFT called RACA Punk, TICKER: RAP.

There are 2,000 RACA Punks, all original 3D CryptoPunk derivative images based on the image of a real CryptoPunk we just bought: #4453. These are humanoid-size RACA Punks that can walk, run and fight in USM Metaverse.

Each RAP has its own 3D image in USM Metaverse — there are 2,000 RACA Punk 3D Pal in the Metaverse that will ever exist!

The 2000 RAP may be distributed as below:

10 will be airdropped to SR.
1 will be airdropped to SSR.
1689 will be airdropped to R.

300 will be put in the Metamon eggs for game winners to open. The total 300 RAP in be opened during one week. from Nov 30 to Dec 6.

This airdrop plan will be updated after we collect more suggestion from the community. When and how to airdrop will be announced later too.

The earlier you have those NFT, the higher chance to get one RAP.

Winners will first receive a RAP avatar with the same 2D image of cryptopunk #4453. There will be “avatar” on the NFT image. Later, you can swap for a random 3D image out of the 2000 RAP. When you deposit your RAP into the Metaverse, you will get a real 3D RACA Punk pal automatically.

There are 10 types of 3D images for Normal Metamon in USM Metaverse: each N Metamon will get its 3D image with a random distribution. Players can keep the 3D N Metamon as a pet.
