New! Cactus Slapper Minigame​

Summer Map Exclusive​

​

We are excited to tell you about a special new game for this summer: Cactus Slapper!​

​

What is Cactus Slapper? ​

In Cactus Slapper, you will compete against other players in a fun and thrilling battle. Use your knockback 2 whacker stick to hit your opponents into cacti and knock them out of the game.​

The last person standing wins. This new minigame will make your summer even more fun!​

​

​

​

New! Warzone​

​

We want to make the Warzone feel full of action, so we have made it smaller. Now, everywhere you go in the Warzone, there is something to do.​

​

You can fight bosses, mine for resources, grind for rewards, or battle other players in PvP. ​

This change will make the Warzone more exciting and full of activity!​

​

Updated! Faction Shield​

​

We heard your feedback about the shield, and we have decided to increase its duration to 20 hours for this map. ​

We understand that many of you felt the previous duration was too short, and we hope this change will make your experience more enjoyable.​

​

What about future maps? ​

If this 20-hour shield works well for all players and receives positive feedback, we will keep the 20-hour shield for all future maps. We are always listening to your suggestions and want to make sure that our game is the best it can be for everyone.​

Updated! Bosses​

​

We have completely overhauled all the bosses, enhancing both their appearance and their attacks. Now, there are four bosses in the Warzone, and they are:​

​

Knight - 15,000❤​	Pyro - 20,000❤ ​	Yeti - 30,000❤ ​	‍ Scarecrow - 40,000❤ ​

All items on the theme of these bosses will now also have these new boss names as their theme, so the sets, weapons, and pets, will now be in the style of the new bosses on OpFactions.​

​

Updated! Boss Shop​

We have made some important updates to the Boss Shop based on your feedback. ​

Here are the changes:​

• Boss Eggs Removed: We have removed boss eggs from the shop, making it more challenging to grind bosses.
• 🛟 Spawn Protection: We have ensured that bosses cannot get into the spawn area, improving overall game balance.
• Price Adjustments: The prices in the Boss Shop have been slightly increased.

​

​

Updated! Stronghold Lootbox​

​

To improve the risk-reward ratio for the event, we have decided to enhance the Stronghold Lootbox.​

​

Because participating in the event involves significant risk, starting from this season, the Stronghold Lootbox has been buffed to offer better rewards.​

We hope this change makes the event more exciting and rewarding for all players.​

Updated! KOTH​

​

The KOTH has been simplified. ​

There are now only two KOTH locations: the End KOTH and the Warzone KOTH. ​

​

While the KOTH events will still run the same number of times, they will now be focused in one location within the Warzone.​

This change will create more action around the KOTH area and bring it closer to the spawn point, making the experience more intense and engaging.​

​

​

Fixed! Bugs​

​

We did our best to polish and fix as many existing bugs inside the OpFactions server. We have looked through all the bug reports and managed to fix them. ​

If you come across any bugs with the new release, make sure to report them at our forums under the bug reports section.​

Here are a few of the bugs we squished out:​

• Fixed the layout for /f warns going out of your screen.
