As we progress towards the end of an incredible month of events and developments, here is an overview of all the latest happenings over the month of December to get you up to speed (in case you missed it!)
The month of December has been our biggest one yet when it comes to new releases in-game, mostly surrounding our official Beta launch.
End of Operation Cadre
Thanks to your continuous support, you have hacked a total of 41,675 brand new zones around the world and taken down 157,131 drones (both Collector and Hunter) across the 83-day period of Operation Cadre! The final tally of the prize pool stands at 3,950,000 $DEFY, with a total of 613 Intel Operatives being eligible to have a share of the rewards. Congratulations!
Additionally, 101 Operatives sent in videos of themselves with their DEFY masks on from 29 countries and 71 cities around the world as part of our recent Community Video Event to wrap up Operation Cadre. For participating, users who submitted an entry will be rewarded with the following Operation Cadre badge to mark their presence within the revolution during this period of time.
Game Updates Overview
From the resource scanner to the Nanoforge, we have had a series of new features released across this month alongside our official Beta release. A new engineering-focused article has been published to cover all of the changes the app has underwent throughout the month of December.

Drone Chassis Launch
We launched our very first Drone Chassis sale earlier this month, starting with 500 Limited Edition variants made available in both the in-app store and web marketplace.
All 100 Drone Chassis available via the in-app store sold out within the first 5 minutes, however there are still some left in the Black Market if you would like to grab one before it is gone.

(Event) Glitch within Future Systems?!
Were you around on the 17th of December when a momentary glitch occurred within the F-NET? The resource scanner started picking up a whole lot of loot on the map!
For one hour only, all energy capacitators were made free-of-charge for Operatives to take advantage of the opportunity to collect as many loots as possible before Future Systems rectified the glitch.
If you missed out, don’t worry — there will be more of such events coming up so stay tuned. You might even get an advance notice if you subscribed and read our monthly newsletter!
A New Quest Awaits…
After the glitch occurred within the F-NET, a mysterious ancient scroll has started to show up in-game. The leader of DEFY, kha0s, has since introduced a new Cadre (f0ur) to the community to oversee the potential development of this discovery.
Sounds like the story of DEFY is about to head to the next level!

DEFY Merchandise (Coming Soon)
You’ve asked, and it is finally here!
Take the revolution offline with exclusive DEFY merchandise, starting with T-Shirts and Hoodies! These merch items will be made available soon in our new web marketplace, where you may use $DEFY to place orders.
And that’s not all! Every piece of merchandise purchased will come with an exclusive DEFY clothing tag digital collectible!
DEFY Spotlight
Featuring mentions of DEFY across various platforms over the past month.
Our CTO, Michael McClenaghan, sat down with Tech in Asia to talk about the technology utilised to enable some of the gameplay experience within DEFY. Read more about it in their article here.
We also had a couple of our Operatives taking the initiative to write up guides in their respective languages for fellow community members.
Here is a comprehensive guide to DEFY by one of our Japanese Operatives. Read the full guide here (you may also translate the page into English).
And here is a guide in Russian by another Operative (mutagen266) that focuses on all of our newest features released with Beta such as the resource scanner, raw materials, and blueprints.

Thank you, fellow Operatives, for your continued support and taking the time to create this for your respective language communities.
