After the overwhelmingly positive reception during the Preview Program, the 1.2 update has triggered a massive backlash in the CN community. Here’s the gist of what went wrong:

The 4 main outrage points:

1. Physics false advertising – Shinku's outfit physics in the live build are significantly worse than what was shown in the preview trailers. Many players call it "consumer fraud".

2. Body type changes – Both Mint and Shinku have noticeably different body proportions compared to their original skins. CN Players suspect the studio is deliberately pandering to female players, alienating the original fanbase.

3. Hidden gacha bombs – The new vehicle and the MC outfit were never mentioned as gacha items during the preview.

4. Underwhelming power level – Shinku, as a limited banner character, is significantly weaker than previous banner units.

Official response so far:

Only point #1 was acknowledged – they pushed a hotfix the same evening to "improve" physics of Shinku’s skin.

The other three points remain completely unaddressed.

But here's the kicker:

On Bilibili and other CN forums, the studio admin has been silently deleting critical posts and muting/banning players who speak up. The censorship is only adding fuel to the fire.

Quick TL;DR, Danosky, server owner of the Offline Archive project, has made a 2nd round of false public accusations against Azure and Madlymoe on 04 July 2026, while stripping away his team members the ability to make announcements and throwing them under the bus.

This is my first time writing a google document, I took chance to do so as well to do some practice on my writing capabilities. So I apologize if the formatting is messy.

Document ends at Page 39, the rest of the pages are Danosky using ChatGPT to speak with his own members.

Edited 2: Added Wallenstein's translated Screenshots under "Internal Team Conflict" section.

TL;DR: This incident was staged by one person who took, kept and damaged the valuable standees, then used multiple accounts to shift the blame onto Studio Bside.

Also, the first picture is not mine

So much hardwork and effort all down the drain, do they not care about the love and care this devs put on the charecter , it going around that the name Valco was trade marked in 2003....they deleted more than 2 decades of work ,what r the chances CN moms will see today's announcement and make PPG take rash decisions over the clothes and worse over the main story, they already proved they only cater to CN and we r nothing to them, today the moms r minority, what if tomorrow their numbers increase along with their ridiculous takes, PPG successfully made their incompetence a CN vs Global fight in LADS, what if Nikki is next??? I hope if something happens like that we will see past these things and hold PPG accountable......sorry for the rant i am genuinely sad and in disbelief

Edit , their might be a mistake in the year it was trademarked, the year might be 2023 instead of 2003 but I am not sure.

Apparently the disposal team wants to give them away, but bside says no. They even sent someone to supervise the process. Sigh I would had paid a premium to take them in... Bside even sent their employees to go to bus stations to retrieve the goods from some people who took the merch for free.

Apperantly LADs had its drama for months, with news coverage etc., while the Valko part was the thing that made it big.

The comment itself is still very hostile against global players but also tries apologize for the racism that actually happened.

I can understand both sites and it's crazy to see how players are now fighting each other.

Infold is truly a fucked up company if even just half of this true.
