About WARDOGS
WARDOGs is an all‑out warfare FPS that blends tactical gunplay, combined‑arms combat and building‑destruction mechanics in a sandbox supporting up to 100 players. Matches revolve around a King‑of‑the‑Hill‑style mode where three teams vie for control of a randomly placed 2 × 2 km zone, earning points for each player inside the zone until one team reaches 100.
Every player begins with $10,000 and can purchase weapons, gear, utilities and vehicles each life. Cash is earned by team‑focused actions such as reviving, transporting allies or holding the objective, and it persists across matches, letting players invest in stronger equipment to shift the battle’s tide.
01 / THE GUIDE
King‑of‑the‑Hill‑Style Match
Three teams fight for control of a 2 × 2 km “Control Zone” that appears at a random location on each map. The team with the most players inside the zone gains points, and the first to 100 points wins.
Because zone placement and player tactics vary each match, no two games play out the same way, encouraging adaptable strategies and constant decision‑making.
- Scout the zone early to locate choke points before the enemy does.
- Coordinate rotations so your team always has fresh players inside the zone.

Cash‑Based Loadouts
Each player starts with $10,000 and can spend it each life on a custom loadout of weapons, gear, utilities and vehicles. Purchases are made from a wide selection, allowing varied playstyles.
Cash is earned by team actions—reviving, transporting teammates, or holding the objective—and it carries over between matches, letting players save for powerful equipment that can turn battles.
- Invest in a vehicle early if you plan to ferry supplies; the payoff can be large.
- Save cash for a high‑impact weapon when the zone is contested heavily.

Construction and Demolition
Players may build forward operating bases or fortify chokepoints, providing tactical advantages for their team. Conversely, they can destroy structures with rockets, artillery tanks or other heavy weapons.
The world reacts to these actions, allowing teams to reshape the battlefield dynamically and create new lines of sight or cover.
- Use fortifications to protect a narrow approach to the zone.
- Destroy enemy‑built structures to open new attack routes.

Team‑Focused Rewards and Voice Chat
Team actions such as reviving squadmates, transporting allies to the zone, or controlling the objective grant cash, directly rewarding cooperation. Cash persistence means coordinated play can yield long‑term benefits.
Local voice chat is integrated, letting players discuss tactics in real time or engage in banter, reinforcing the player‑driven nature of each match.
- Assign a dedicated reviver to keep teammates alive during intense fights.
- Use voice chat to call out enemy movements and coordinate zone rotations.
