Studio BULKHEAD has released the Season 3 devlog for WARDOGS. The season starts on November 12 and will run for three months — from now on, every season will be this length.
What's new
Season 3 adds Sabatulo, an urban map built for close-range combat. Gear now unlocks along the role branch you're actually playing: for example, a pilot gets access to armor-piercing .308 rounds at level 40 of their own branch, instead of level 140 of the Wardog branch as before.
Limited mode
In the new limited mode, armor is capped at level 2, only FMJ ammo is available, and the strongest vehicles are removed. Money and XP earned in this mode are shared with the main mode. The studio is still finalizing the full list of restrictions.
Bans
Ahead of the season, the studio reviewed 187 million hours of gameplay and found that almost one in twenty players used third-party software. As a result, 185,000 accounts were banned — including for recoil and aim scripts. Servers used by boosters were shut down demonstratively: XP was reset, rain was turned on, and everyone on them was banned.
If a player believes their ban was a mistake, it can only be appealed through the WARDOGS Support bot on the game's official Discord.
Studio: "Season 2 didn't give an even start. Season 3 has better odds — without 185,000 extra players."
