TGIF! Game Updates for February 21, 2020

Happy Friday everyone!

Hope everyone is enjoying the last bit of February as 2020 continues to careen onwards with no signs of slowing down. 

There’s a decent amount of news to cover in this edition of the TGIF, so let’s go over what’s new in development news:

In Game Events!

The Skogsra Raid Boss returns in Viking Clan! This forest spirit lures adventurers to their death, will you succumb to its charms or triumph over it in combat?

Crafting has also been released for the Idunn’s Orchard Location, which brings releases for this Location to a close!

Faction Quest Reward Payout Update

Starting with this week’s Faction Quest in Zombie Slayer and continuing with each game’s Quest over the next few weeks, we’re making a change to how Favor Points/UN Credits are paid out at the end of the event.

Until this update, the Medium and Hard Quest cases contained a random assortment of FP Values, from 5 all the way up to 100. There was a percentage chance to pay one of those out when the case was opened. While the possibility of getting 100 FP is certainly exciting, lots of players have let us know that opening a case after putting a lot of effort into a Quest to get less FP than they were hoping could be a bit deflating.

After this change, Medium and Hard Quest cases will pay out FP based on the contribution a player has put in. The more effort you put in towards a Quest, the more FP will be in your case at the end! Conversely, if you put in fewer actions towards that Quest, you’ll get less FP accordingly. To earn FP in your cases at the end of the event, you’ll need to put in at least 2% of the actions towards each Medium and Hard Quest.

Make sure to coordinate with your Syndicate when doing Quests so everybody gets the payout they feel they earned!

Gifting Update

We’re making a couple small tweaks to Gifting to round out the week. The maximum number of Gifts you can send per day is now 500. For those playing on Facebook, after the first 100 sends you will no longer get the Facebook confirmation pop-up.

If you run into any difficulty with either of these changes, definitely let us know via Support (support.kanoapps.com)!

Next Week’s Admin Blitz Event

Next week, we’ll be holding an Admin Blitz in Pirate Clan! If you’re around on the following date, make sure to drop by and nab some sweet cash off of some Kano folk:
