Introduction :


Virtual reality will be mainstream within 5 years time,and mass adopted within 10 years.

The way we think of consuming content such as movies, music, browse the internet and play games will change considerably during this time period.


Experience is not a cryptocurrency but a virtual reality platform that enables the user to create items, creatures, vehicles, buildings and programmable experiences to share and/or monitise.

Star in an adventure and rate it, earn money with your creations and experiences.

Control the in-game tools with intuitive hand gestures and voice commands and / or controllers and virtual surfaces.

"Experience will capture, embody and syndicate the upcoming worldwide boom and merge the VR movement with content consumption and management into 1 entertaining full immersion user experience"





Storyline :

You are a part of a race of hyper advanced cyborgs in the galactic time unit 9000, decendants of ancient humans. Humans began to modify themselves and started to integrate technology directly into their bodies.

Step by step civilisation became more efficient and society was streamlined to near perfection, but had to pay the price with giving up their humanity, bit by bit.

They developed a conciousness called "brain".

This powerfull A.I controlled the planet information network called "the grid"

Eventually ,technology advanced so far that their homeplanet was destroyed, because it was to advanced to control.

Several collossal escape vessels were able to flee from the exploding planet. You have all been sent to the corners of the galaxy with an exodus vessel.

Your mission to find planets and restart civilisations. , and you have an uplink to brain, or what is left of him since he which was damaged in the mass exodus,resulting in communication loss between exodus vessels.

During your deployment on your designated planets, you have been instructed to re-discover what it means to be human

You also have to learn new ways to build up the planet that was assigned to you. After learning everything on your designated planet, you must branch out and find your Lost brothers and sisters. So much time has passed that there is no way to know how they have evolved over the time communication was lost.

Find them by exploring the galaxy or find a way to re-establish communication.

Build up your planet with your brothers and sisters without compromising your internal programming. If you find programming that does not correspond to your sourcecode you must analise it and find a solution to unify it with your own.


but wait...........

With all these glitches in brain, can we really be sure we left the planet, or did we melt into brain and we aren`t even really here....

Is this all just an eleborate simulation or did we really escape from our home planet?

Mind...........Blown!


How will this play out? Find out in Experience!

----------------------------------------------------------
technical explenations:

These different planets will all be inhabited by actual players, the difference in culture described above is not scrypted but actual different development , depending on what faction you choose.

These different planets will have overlapping items, but also unique sets, stimulating inter galactic travel and trade.........or battle?

Because one of the main pillars of Experience is immersion/presence Your real time controlers are directly linked to the in game architecture.
http://experience.freeforums.org/immersion-and-presence-f14.html

A real life seated experience with oculus rift will result in a different in game body then when the player has a real life walking device such as Virtuix Omni or Cyberith Virtualizer.
In this last case, bipedal walking body modification extensions will become available.

This way the feeling of presence is not disturbed by a dissonance between the real world and the virtual world.





Here are just a fraction of the features :

-VR head mounted display, orientational and positional headtracking, full body motion capture, varius controllers.

- Dynamic / reactive open world VRMMO environment.

- Dynamic weather, objects, lighting.

- In-game Building, item and creature creation tools.

- User generated / shared / rated content.

- Co_op building and quests/ Recruit players for your mission, volunteer or bounty.

- Protection / anti grief tool (permission / share tool), Access / permission key's

- Block (voxel) style construction. Snap blocks to the grid or decouple for freebuild.

- Build, share, operate vehicles.

- Breed creatures algorithm, family tree history database

- Leveling, XP, credits,star ratings

- 2d desktop in 3d space,virtual control surfaces

-Multiple dimensions (in game goggles / reality conversion display)

1 : realism : peaceful, creative mode
2 : survival : eat, health bar,crafting, XP,1st person shooter applications
3 : Manga style
4 : cartoon style

more features here : http://experience.freeforums.org/features-f6.html





Why is this here on bitcointalk in the style of a crypto currency IPO?

First of all : Experience will feature multiple cryptocurrencys according to the pay/vote model for trading, paying and in game purchase, so it will help to advance the mass adoption of cryptocurrencys world wide.

Second of all, i am very familiar with this crypto community from my time as btc-e mod and UTC founder.I have also personally seen the power of a group of people banding together for a common goal within the crypto community.





Funding plan:

The experience project will be funded in multiple stages.

The investment opportunity featured on this page is about phase 1 only.





The multiphase funding targets are:

Phase 1 : 50.000 USD : Production of technology showcase / Gameplay demo (+movie marketing etc.)

Phase 2 : 1.000.000 USD : Crowdfunding stage for full production run and first release:



This dual stage funding plan with get Experience to a launching phase, but it will not be a final product. The modular development style architecture will allow plugins to be inserted after launch.

The idea is using subscription revenue to complete full development.




How will our funding be used if we support this?


5000 USD will go towards hardware.

10000 USD will go to making a technology showcase environment with integrated hardware support (motion capture, headtracking.

10000 USD will go to a basic in game content creator tool, it will showcase virtual reality and show the potential of the concept.

5000 USD will go towards the making of the crowdfunding page and a presentational video made by hired professionals.

10000 USD will go to a marketing campaign (this is a big factor in succeeding or failing a crowdfunding campaign.

10000 USD will go to additional and unforeseen costs.




If you are a developer and you have studied the concept you will most likely argue that this budget is to small for this size venture. The reason it will work is is the grassroots style modular development.

Small one man army dev studios will be targeted, to execute most features mentioned on the forum withing a plugin architecture.

Offcourse it would help if the round 1 funding target of 50.000 USD is exceeded, since it will increase the chances of securing the second target.





What will we get for supporting Experience?

If you support this massive endevour and phase 2 is succesfull you will recieve :

-Your full investment back +10%  if phase 2 is succesull EDIT : bumped to 25%!

-in game credits,

-many years of gameplay or even free play for life (depending on your package)







Please view the options here:


A : 25  dollar  : 5 years free gameplay        + 50 dollar value of in game purchase      + reduced fee of 0.4% on content selling profit (during free gameplay perdiod)

B : 50  dollar  : 10 years free gameplay       + 100 dollar value of in game purchase     + reduced fee of 0.3% on content selling profit (during free gameplay perdiod)

C : 100 dollar  : 15 years free gameplay       + 200 dollar value of in game purchase     + reduced fee of 0.2% on content selling profit (during free gameplay perdiod)

D : 250 dollar  : 30 years free gameplay     + 500 dollar value of in game purchase     + reduced fee of 0.1% on content selling profit (during free gameplay perdiod)

D : 500 dollar  : life time free gameplay     + 1000 dollar value of in game purchase    + reduced fee of 0.1% on content selling profit (during free gameplay perdiod)

E : 1000 dollar : life time free gameplay     + 2000 dollar value of in game purchase    + 0% on content selling profit for life

F : Fund the full 50.000 dollar and get 75.000 dollar back when and if the crowdfunding of 1 million dollar is complete.


Explanation on the reduced fee:

Lets look at this example:

Billy509 has created an awesome sword and he has placed it in the item store for 100 in game credits.

Killdog has bought the sword, Experience gets 0.5% fee and Billy509 gets the rest.

You will now recognise this revenue model from crypto currency exchanges.



The bitcointalk round must raise enough funds for a tech and gameplay demo, as well as a professional crowdfunding movie and promo funds.


If you visit the forum mentioned below, you will see that this plan is enormous and it will need a huge ammount of money to develop.If we join forces we will show industry leaders that the community can come together and complete a massive task.

We are living in modern times where crowdfunding is becoming more popular every day,big banks and coorporations have proven to have taken big risks and lost peoples money, resulting in global crisis.





What happens when we support this round, you make the demo and crowdfunding fails?

This is a medium/high risk investment profile so Only invest what you can afford to loose. PLease note that in the best case scenario your full investment, game and perks will be delivered in 1 year from now.

Offcourse i am going to do everything within my power to complete this project, and i am not dillusional about my own capabilitys or underestimating the vastness of this project.


Failing the crowdfunding campaign is indeed a real possibility. Even though you do your best,sometimes its just not enough. We have seen asic company CEO`s be over confident in their own ability and/or underestimating the vastness of a task. I am confident in my own ability, and i know this project is huge. However if 50000 can not get a grassroots style playable demo then i must be the biggest oompaloompa in the galaxy.


If the second round of crowdfunding fails, you will recieve a copy of the demo client as a consolation, That will not be as awesome as a succesfull project completion but still better then loosing your money, so be warned.

Please note that failing the second round of funding for full production does not mean i will just give up and quit. I will make this thing a reality no matter what. The modular plugin architecture also allows for things to be developed after launch, just like minecraft and bukkit plugins.





Conclusion :

By joining together and connecting the developers in the indie sector we can all make this a reality.It may be no surprise to you that i am receiving almost no attention or replys from industry leaders.

The reason is that they are doing this themselves, and they dont need competition. Let`s all show together that the little guy can make a difference!

Instead of gambling on the new supposedly wonderfull shitcoin and then crying you lost all your money, take a chance in being a part of the biggest collaborative gaming experience platform ever.



So no fancy OP here , no new coin that promises the moon, just an awesome project and a wonderfull prospect on an unlimited gameplay experience.  

I have seen the threads of scam asic companies, and i advise you guys to make a screenshot of this thread so you know the terms you are agreeing to.




If you want to support this project in USD Please use Paypal : loosetop@yahoo.com


you can mail your name and choice to VRMMO@yahoo.com

Make sure to mention :

- Your name

- Your choice

- Your transaction ID.



Phase one funding window is 5-11-2014 to 5-12-2014 , which is 1 month.

Thank you

So we either get nothing, or our money back if it's successful? Sounds strange...

I'm not to fond of crowdfunding campaigns that basically has nothing to show, as I've seen far too many fail.

"If the second round of crowdfunding fails, you will recieve a copy of the demo client as a consolation, That will not be as awesome as a succesfull project completion but still better then loosing your money, so be warned."


As far as having nothing to show, you will find this roadmap is extremely detailed and realistic. Ultracoin raised 60000 dollars in 14 hours after posting the announcement on bitcointalk, and it was nowhere near such advanced features.

I do see your point, but if i had a demo this thread would not be here

[Bogart]

You're gonna need a whole lot more than $1m USD to pull off a plan this ambitious.  I'd say you'll need more like $100m.

I once worked at a small software company that produced a game-like product that ran on multiple platforms, had a sizable amount of content, and had a significant online component to it.

This company had many very talented people who all worked very hard to make the project a success.  All together the various teams added up to around 150 people.  It took about 4 years from the time when development began in earnest to the time the product "launched".  Of course after launch there was still tons of ongoing work in terms of support, bug fixes, added features, new content, etc.

I'm not trying to discourage you, but I think you need to get a better grasp of the requirements.

in fact i will add that, for clarity.

thank you

on a personal note : you are the first person to realise the vastness and potential of the vision after knocking on many doors , that means alot to me.

[bumface]

If anybody has questions, just ask  

This is my dream guys, this should not get less investors then a new coin with noob bitcointalk accounts

This is the real deal

STORYLINE ADDED!

awesome, wow, wow, wow....

[b!z]

Wait, why is this in Off-topic? Is this a joke?

[bumface]

Wait, why is this in Off-topic? Is this a joke?

very very very serious!

it is not a crypto currency so i thought it should be in here......

Wait, why is this in Off-topic? Is this a joke?

very very very serious!

it is not a crypto currency so i thought it should be in here......

Oh okay. You have a lot of great ideas. Have you done research into how much they will actually cost to bring into fruition? Like bogart said above: a lot of money, it seems.

[bumface]

very very very serious!

Oh okay. You have a lot of great ideas. Have you done research into how much they will actually cost to bring into fruition? Like bogart said above: a lot of money, it seems.

exactly,

If you were to present this to a company they would say 25 million / 50 million, but i will deploy a bukkit (minecraft 3rd party server) style + crypto currency bounty model.

That means that nobody will be paid by the hour, with the exeptions of a few core-coordinators, some people have already been approached. These are experienced developers or buisiness owners.

The core engine functionality and in game cretor tool should be produced by a hired team.

All the remaingin small features on the forum that can be done with the 1m will be indexed on a bounty list, and developers world wide can claim them.

All the features on the forum that could not be done with the 1m, will be indexed on a second bounty list for developers, these developers will be paid every time a player downloads their plugin into their inventory (-0.5% fee for Experience)

With the user generated content, the experience platform will grow every day, and become better. That is something a 100 million dollar game can not do.


the idea is to use the 50k for a technology demo that will showcase full integration of oculus rift with orientational and positional headtracking,Cyberith Virtualizer,hand tracking and a few in game features, as well as gameplay.

This demo will then be presented on kickstarter or indiegogo, where 1 million dollar funding is requiered to advance to a point where experience is ready for open beta trial release.

I must emphasize that the growth model is similar to minecraft, where software is released and 3rd party developers can insert plugins for people to download.

I playd minecraft for a long time aswell as tekkit, and tekkit lite. Those developers work out of passion, if they can earn real monny on the Experience platform per download, they will be sufficiently motivated to make it nice and fancy.

I must also mention that i have had 1 reccomendation not to build a demo game with the 50k but rather pay a preofessional animator to simulate gameplay in a movie....


So , the 1 million must fund :

- full hardware integration

- intro scene

- in-game experience (quest/mission/adventure) creator

- all the in-game creation tools (items , vehicles, creatures, buildings)

- content rating tool

- protection /permissions (anti grief)

- various tools

- fully functional wrist worn UI

- call functionality

- avatar modification (modular cyborg, switchable componants with their own properties)

- functional economy

- Leveling system

- map / chart

and more.....


To sum it up, the core architecture will be developed, features that did not make it will be developed after launch, as long the beta is playable and totally awesome this is no issue.

Offcourse if Experience really raises 1 million USD, this will attrack massive attention to it and additional investments might enter.


I hope people see the potential since 0 dollar has been contributed so far, but keep investing 5000 on a scamcoin hahahaha



to spark your imagination please combine all these technologys with unlimited in game creating

its in-game ^_^

But the storyline is just a delivery mechanism for the technology

[Nunu]

isnt there a section like kickstarter better visible then a bitcoin forum?

[bumface]

isnt there a section like kickstarter better visible then a bitcoin forum?

i have failed 2 indiegogo campaigns (unrelated ventures) and it has revealed that crowdfunding is not al all as romantic as the media suggests...

after a lof of research it turns out that almost all the success stories we hear about , dropped at least 10k on marketing, mostly more in the 20 to 30 range....

If you are looking very closely you see that new campaigns come with a little box that sais what news agencies wrote about them already..... how is this possible?

because you can just buy adspace on websites. You also have to beat an algoritm, if you dont hit the markers , you do not get published on frontpages, or rank up in the search box.......

in short : money money money

Even unreal engine 4 wants 5% of all revenue ( yes, even from your crowdfunding)

But is it fails here on bitcointalk, then i will have to try that route without a budget -_-

My oculus dev kit 2 has been shipped, so then i will record some footage to show you guys the possibilities.

[bumface]

Oculus Rift dev kit 2 not here yet. Tiny thing, no experience what so ever, imagine what actual gamebuliders can do with 50k ( -marketing budget), that demo would surely show alot of the functions to get the 1m funding in phase 2....

I learned this in 2 days : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IctBI8-RK-k&feature=youtu.be

Those models are not built by me. If Experience is built those websites will be live, and offcourse about a 1000 other functions too..


imagine Experience being this beautifull, and you could create anything

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itQKNd9Bwfg

You can download  these demos here : https://forums.oculus.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=12646
Everything here is unreal engine 4

Imagine walking around there, and you have real time motion capture of your arms and legs, you have tools to create things and manipulate them with your hands......

How is this not awesome beyond belief? Not a single dollar invested in Experience here, hahaha, and yet 10000`s of dollars every day in scamcoins by unknows newby accounts .

I dont get it. Be apart of something huge! Experience!

4k quality : unreal engine 4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3hXDxyP8nk&src_vid=0TJry_vuC0o&feature=iv&annotation_id=annotation_1591169431

If you walk around there in virtual reality your mind will be blown beyond belief

[bumface]

I have the Oculus DK2 and it is


When the consumer version comes, the lines between the pixels will be gone, hopefully.

Now is the time to start developing Experience, Who is with me?!
