Territory Bounties have been soft launched — meaning the system is live in the game, but we will not turn on automatic scheduled bounty creation right away.
In short: when a bounty is running, cartels in the matching strength tier fight for tickets on a specific territory. The leader when it ends takes the win — vault cash, cartel respect, armory loot, and sometimes bigger prizes (including rare/legendary territory perks). Wrong tier or timing means your wins still count as fights, but they do not add bounty tickets.
Soft launch plan
Ship without a schedule — no weekly auto-spawn at first. Bounties will only appear when staff start them on purpose.
Let the code settle — run it live for a couple of days and watch for bugs from the new systems (combat scoring, resolve rewards, UI, etc.).
Fix anything that breaks — if something feels wrong or broken, report it and we will patch before wider trials.
Volunteer trial runs — once things look stable, invite a few cartels to try a real bounty on their territory (or a suitable tile) so we can gather feedback.
Dial in rewards — repeat a handful of trials across different cartels and rarities until the payouts feel fair and exciting.
Then go full chaos — when rewards and flow feel right, turn on the regular schedule and let bounties spawn on their own.
Looking for volunteer cartels
If your cartel wants to help stress-test a Territory Bounty during the trial phase, say so in this thread.
I am especially interested in hearing from higher-ranked / competitive cartels (using the highscore boards as a rough guide), but any organised cartel that can field fighters during a live window is welcome. I will be directly reaching out to offer the trials for cartels in the top of the rankins and work my way down to get a good mix of tests with different rarities and rewards. I expect this will go on for a couple of weeks likely before we have things tuned to a point where the schedule makes sense to turn on.
Ideal volunteers can:
Field enough online attackers during a live bounty window (often a couple of hours, longer for higher rarities).
Give honest feedback afterward — pacing, ticket clarity, rewards, fairness vs other cartels, anything confusing in the UI.
Accept that trial payouts and timings may still be adjusted — this is about learning, not locking the final economy on day one.
When you volunteer, please drop:
Cartel name
Rough strength / who you usually compete with
Preferred trial window (timezone + days/times you can show up)
Which territory you are willing to fight for(and possibly lose)
What to expect during trials
Staff will announce / spawn a bounty for a chosen territory, tier, rarity, and theme.
There will be a short upcoming period, then a live scoring window, then resolve with rewards.
Feedback in this thread (or reports via the usual channels) is hugely useful — especially if something feels unclear, unfair, or too swingy.

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help us get this right before the scheduled version goes wide. Looking forward to the chaos — after we earn it.
