TW season will not start officially until 1/31/2018 so that Resource Wars can be triggered.
DC season will start officially after reset today.
TW and DC seasons will be longer this time.
Arigora will not be reset tonight - please be sure to read the PvP Announcements when they go up for more details.

    TW and DC seasons longer? Lovely. Just join the top faction of whatever server you are in then, no point in staying anywhere else for TWs.
    The seasons need to actually be shortened to prevent the top dog from gobbling up all the lands and the TW fun dying out in the end as the smaller factions are no longer on the map to fight with eachother. Smaller scale wars are more fun anyway then the juggernauts steamrolling everyone.

    Normally they wait a few weeks to do the reset. I gotta be totally honest I was completely shocked and we are not always included in any information. To be fair they are starting the TW season a few weeks after the map reset which is a bit odd but hey. My apologies and good luck for this season.

    Also just to clear up Im not a Community Manager, I would not want any confusion to be caused from this.

    Thanks.​​

    What it sounds like to me is that they're waiting to 'start' the season until all the lands have been claimed, so a 16-week season would be 16-weeks from the point where all the lands have been claimed or should reasonably have been claimed.

    I know that there's some people who don't care for RW, but at the same time, RW does get the short end of the stick on every season. So to try and preserve this, I'm having the official season start a bit later so that lands can be claimed.

    Official announcements should be out Friday and if not, Monday at the absolute worst. It'll have all the start and ends dates for DC and TW. Arigora Season 2 I currently do not have a date on, since I'm checking to see if we have the Season 2 rewards already in our version and I know there is concerns about score wiping and players not able to upgrade gears when their scores aren't high enough to do so after grinding them up.

    We have some cool changes coming particularly to Dragon's Conquest that I hope players will like!

    Hey Kaly,
    you really one of the best CM came to this game so please keep the good job.
    but the first part about TW season and RW doesn't make sense at all.... basically what u doing is... ok here you go players can bid and start TW but officially season start a bit later !!? you know that the moment faction leaders able to bid means season started already !!!!!!!!

    if you going to do Arigora season 2 please can you just put a requirement on those who are able to do 3v3 and 6v6 ? like own a HS ? like boundary astral sky ? can you stop the abuse ?
