Hello, Tamers. This is the <Dragon Village 3> Development Team.

Our development team carefully reviews every valuable message you send us each day, and we are constantly thinking about how <Dragon Village 3> can become a deeper and more enjoyable game.

Rather than simply providing temporary solutions to the inconveniences you encounter, we are analyzing the core of the feedback you have shared with us from various perspectives. 

 At the same time as improving the fundamental structure of the game and the overall gameplay experience, we are carefully considering what new joys and goals we should provide in the future through countless meetings and reviews, and we are working tirelessly on development to turn these considerations into actual changes.

In this Developer Note, we would like to sincerely share with you everything from the convenience improvements that will begin with the upcoming October 7 update, to the major new content that the development team is preparing with all of its capabilities, as well as plans for upcoming special events.

 ※ Please note that some detailed specifications or implementation schedules for the updates and plans announced through this Developer Note may change during the development and review process to ensure high-quality content and stable service.

1. Our Gratitude to All Tamers Who Have Been With Us

 We would like to express our deepest and sincerest gratitude to all Tamers who have continuously stayed with <Dragon Village 3> and shown us your love and support. 

To express our appreciation, we have prepared various events and gifts for all Tamers to enjoy.

• - 'Thank You for Being With Us! 14 Days of Gratitude' Push Event
  • Starting today, simply logging into the game for 14 days will grant you special rewards through daily push mail. 

We have generously prepared a variety of essential resources for your adventures and growth, including Time Capsules, Diamonds, and Draw Tickets, so please don't forget to log in and claim all the rewards.

•  
• - 'Thank You for Being With Us! 14 Days of Gratitude' Special Login Event
• Through the special login event beginning after the October 7 update, you will be able to obtain abundant rewards, as well as a special Dragon Egg and Breeding Book.
•  
• - A Special Gratitude Coupon Gift for All Tamers
  • We have prepared a special coupon that will be useful not only for Tamers who have been continuously enjoying <Dragon Village 3>, but also for new Tamers who are just beginning their adventures. Please check the coupon codes below and we hope they will be of great help on your adventures.

2. Convenience Improvements for a Better Gameplay Experience

 We have received a great deal of feedback from Tamers regarding the fatigue caused by repetitive sequences and waiting times while playing the game.

 The development team also recognizes this as one of the highest-priority issues that needs to be addressed. 

Accordingly, through the October 7 update, we will make our first major round of convenience improvements by significantly reducing unnecessary steps in the gameplay flow, allowing you to focus on the fun of adventure itself.

• - Expanded Sequence Skip Function : The sequence skip function, which was previously limited to certain content, will be expanded to major battles and content throughout the game. 
•  

By shortening sequences that previously had to be repeatedly watched, you will be able to enjoy your desired content at a faster pace. Below are some of the representative features that will receive skip and convenience improvements starting October 7.
 

• - Perfect Bond Success, Level Up, and Training Stat Selection sequences
• - Treasure Plunder and Tree of Fruition battle sequences
• - Raid Boss and World Boss appearance sequences
• - Transcendence, Limit Break, and Promotion sequences
• - A function that allows you to cancel incorrectly planted seeds on the Farm
• - Addition of Friendly Matches in the Ranked Battle format
   
• - World Boss Delegation Function Added : A Delegation system will be introduced to the World Boss content, which previously required you to battle manually every day, reducing the burden of daily play for Tamers who prefer automatic gameplay.
   
• - Colosseum Quick Battle Added : A Quick Battle function will also be added to the Colosseum. Like the skip system in existing content, this feature will be available to Tamers who are using the 'Ad Removal' product and will significantly reduce the time required for daily PvP battles.
   
• - Other Improvements : Various other in-game inconveniences will also be addressed, including a function to block unwanted Friendly Match requests and a function that separates Mailbox tabs so that purchased products can be conveniently received.
   

 Following these first-round improvements, we plan to continuously introduce various convenience features through additional updates during October, including a system that allows you to schedule multiple content Delegations in sequence.

The development team considers creating a comfortable gameplay environment that Tamers can feel every day to be just as important as adding new content, and we will continue working to improve it.

 

3. Revamp of Guild Battle and Raid Guild Ranking Systems

 We are preparing improvements to make content where you gather with guild members, develop strategies, and compete into more meaningful and rewarding challenges. Development is currently underway with the goal of implementing these changes during October.
 

• - Revamp of Guild Battle Rewards and Reward Structure
  • Although there are still some areas that will be improved, the development team believes that Guild Battle has established itself to a certain extent within the game.
     
  • Accordingly, the reward tiers and reward amounts for top-ranked guilds will be revamped to provide clear and substantial motivation not only for the top guilds that compete fiercely in Guild Battles, but also for all Tamers who actively participate.
     
• - Revamp of Raid Guild Ranking Calculation Method and Rewards
  • - Currently, Raid Guild Rankings have been operated under a system where scores are largely determined by the simple number of games played, making the competition somewhat meaningless.
  • - To move away from this meaningless competition over the number of games played and make each Tamer's growth and skill more meaningful, we will completely revise the ranking calculation method.
  • - After the revamp, for Raid Bosses from the corresponding season only, each Tamer's highest score achieved during the season will be recorded, and guilds will compete by adding together the highest records of their guild members.
  • - Along with this, the reward structure and reward amounts based on Raid Guild Rankings will also be revamped, just as with Guild Battles.
    
     

4. New Battle Content: [Proving Grounds], [World Raid]

 The core enjoyment of <Dragon Village 3> lies in collecting various Dragons and raising them with care and affection. The development team is developing the following content to provide ways for the many Dragons you have cared for and raised to play diverse and meaningful roles.

• - Proving Grounds (Tentative Name)
  • - Proving Grounds is a new type of core battle content where you can deploy multiple Dragons you own simultaneously and engage in battle.
  • - We are designing it so that the Abilities and Ultimate Skills of the Dragons you have raised, along with your Orb combinations, will serve as key strategic factors that determine victory or defeat.
  • In particular, we have devised a new battle system that reduces the difficulty barriers and gameplay fatigue that existing turn-based battles can create. Rather than relying on just one or two powerful - Dragons, we are pushing ahead with the final stages of development so that you can experience deep strategic gameplay based on how you combine and position the various Dragons you own.
  • - We are doing our best to introduce Proving Grounds to Tamers as early as October and no later than November.
     

 If Proving Grounds is closer to an individual goal, we are also developing a massive cooperative content where Tamers can gather in one place and challenge it together.
 

• - World Raid (Tentative Name)
  • - World Raid, where multiple Tamers work together in real time to take on a massive Boss, aims to provide a level of tension and cooperative experience unlike the gameplay patterns of existing content.
  • - On a vast field, dozens of Tamers will be able to use their respective Dragons to counter the attacks of a massive Boss and cooperate with one another.
  • - Rather than becoming a tedious battle that simply increases the Boss's HP, we are designing it so that many Tamers can interact in real time and experience a great sense of excitement through the process of working together to defeat the Boss.
  • - We are also preparing a very special and unprecedented reward structure worthy of the enormous scale of 'World Raid', so we ask for your anticipation.
  • - Due to the large volume of this content, development is expected to take some time, so we ask for your understanding that it is still difficult to provide an estimated update schedule.
     

In addition, the previously planned Lair of the Dead content is currently undergoing a complete revamp in terms of its design direction, so please understand that the content above may be introduced first.

 

5. We Are Preparing a Special Encounter for the 0.5 Anniversary

This coming November, <Dragon Village 3> will celebrate its 0.5 anniversary of service with the continued support of all Tamers.

To commemorate this meaningful milestone and repay you for all the love you have shown us, we are preparing a special large-scale collaboration event.

This collaboration goes beyond a simple one-time event and includes a variety of content and rich event configurations that you can enjoy during the 0.5 anniversary festival period. We are diligently preparing to meet your expectations.

<Dragon Village 3> is taking steps forward even at this moment.
 

The development team is working hard every day, from the invisible tasks of delicately refining the play environment in the game to the development of large-scale content that will excite you.
 

While we may not be able to show you all the requirements at once, we will humbly accept the shortcomings and quickly refine them, ensuring that the time and effort you have invested shine even more valuably within <Dragon Village 3>.
 

We ask for your continued expectations and support for <Dragon Village 3>, which will provide you with endless enjoyment, starting with the October update, the Battle of Proof, World Raid, and the 0.5 anniversary collaboration.

Once again, we express our deep gratitude to all the Tamers who love <Dragon Village 3>.

Thank you.
