Cats VS Dogs Rules Update

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Dear Players,

In the recent Cats vs. Dogs event, we heard a lot of frustration from players regarding the fact that the losing faction could not obtain the final outfit of the opposing faction. We fully understand this disappointment. As a result, we’ve made the following improvements to the final reward rules:

Original Rules:

  1. Players in the winning faction could obtain their own faction’s final outfit for free after reaching tier 30 in their faction (with a gradual discount from tiers 1-30).
  2. Players in the winning faction could purchase the opposing faction’s final outfit at a 60% discount after reaching tier 30 spying in the opposing faction (with a gradual discount from tiers 1-30).
  3. Players in the losing faction could purchase their own faction’s final outfit at a 60% discount after reaching tier 30 (with a gradual discount from tiers 1-30).
  4. Players in the losing faction could not obtain the opposing faction’s final outfit .

New Rules:

  1. Players in both the winning and losing factions can obtain their own faction’s final outfit for free after reaching tier 30 in their faction (with a gradual discount from tiers 1-30).
  2. Players in the winning faction can obtain the opposing faction’s final outfit for free after reaching tier 30 spying in the opposing faction (with a gradual discount from tiers 1-30).
  3. Players in the losing faction can purchase the opposing faction’s final outfit at a 60% discount after reaching tier 30 spying in the opposing faction (with a gradual discount from tiers 1-30).
  4. Players in the winning faction will unconditionally receive a special namecard that represents victory in the event.
  5. Players in the winning faction can also obtain an upgraded version of their faction’s final outfit for free after reaching tier 30 (available only at tier 30 and above).

With these adjustments, we aim to give players from both factions the opportunity to obtain both factions' final outfits, while also providing additional rewards for the winning faction, such as the upgraded final outfit and the special victory namecard. We hope these changes will help bridge the reward gap between the two factions while ensuring that the winning side receives exclusive benefits.

We understand that the new rules may not address every concern, but we hope that this update will ease some of the frustration.

Thank you all for participating in this event!
And thank you for playing Party Animals!
