Neue Schauplätze und Missionen

• Schauplatz für kompinierte Schlachten “Seversk-13” hinzugefügt.

Schauplatz-, und Missionsupdates

• In einigen Missionen wurden Flugplatz Modelle durch identische Modelle ersetzt, jedoch mit größeren Substratflächen (um den Hügeleffekt beim Anfliegen eines Flugplatzes zu verbergen).
• Die Tiefe auf den meisten Karten wurde erhöht oder auf historische Werte für das Marinespiel reduziert.
• Panzerwracks, die nicht bewegt werden können, wurden optisch verändert, damit sie nicht mit einem kürzlich zerstörten Fahrzeug, das bewegt werden kann, verwechselt werden können.

Anhaltende Konfrontationen

• Ein Fehler, bei dem dieselbe Bodenschlacht in mehreren Quadranten beginnen konnte (einige Einheiten spawnen in einem Quadrat, einige in einem anderen), wurde behoben.
• Ein Fehler, bei dem mehrere Schlachten gleichzeitig im selben Quadranten stattfinden konnten (normalerweise zwei entgegengesetzte Schlachten), wurde behoben.
• KI-Bomber werden jetzt je nach Gefechtsrang in unterschiedlichen Höhen gespawnt.

Naval fleet model, damage model, characteristic and weaponry changes:

Naval weaponry:

• AI gunners will no longer attempt to hit targets they cannot damage. For example, gunners of 37mm, 40mm, and 76mm guns won’t shoot battleships. 
• 100mm/70 SM-5-1 turret - explosives’ type and weight has been corrected for F-55 and OF-55 rounds.
• 356mm/45 gun 41 Year Type (IJN Hyuga) - weight, type and velocity of the AP round have been corrected. Stock HE shell has been changed to SAP round.
• USS North Dakota (BB-29) - stock Mk.17 AP round has been changed to HE shell Mk.17. New AP shell Mk.7 is now available for research.
• SMS Helgoland - SAP shell has been added to the 1st level of research. AP round moved to the 2nd, and requires research again. RP and SL spent on this round has been refunded. 
• Traverse speed of the 102mm/45 gun Mark XVI and 102mm fast firing Mark V gun on British naval vessels has been corrected according to the turret they are mounted in.
• 135mm/45 gun O.T.O. Mod. 1938 -rate of fire has been increased to 7.5 rpm.
• 100 mm naval cannon Minisini — Fire rate has been lowered to 12 shots per minute.
• Leipzig, Nurnberg, Koln, Chapayev, Sverdlov, Zheleznyakov, Krasny Kavkaz - Ready-use ammo have been removed for the main calibre cannons. Fire rate is now constant.
• IJN Suzuya, IJN Mikuma, IJN Mogami, IJN Isudzu — Ready-use ammo for the 127 mm/40 cannon of Type 89 have been added. Fire rate of the cannons for these shells has been changed to 14 shots per minute.

Naval characteristics, physics and damage model:

• The damage model on ammo stowage has been changed for battleships, cruisers and destroyers. Fire and detonation of the magazines are fatal to the ship. The explosion and detonation of the shell rooms do not lead to the complete disabling of the ship, but lead to severe destruction around the stowage area, hull breaches and fires.
• Some types of fires have been reworked  for battleships and cruisers - fires in main calibre turrets, ammo elevators and some internal rooms have become more dangerous. Fire from turret fighting compartment may go down inside barbettes, ignite the elevator and go to ammo stowage. Shell stowages are more durable against the fire than magazines, and may be affected by fire for longer. Both shell and magazines may explode, if fire isn’t extinguished.  If fire destroys the stowage, it will inevitably explode.
• Damage model for AP, SAP, and base fuze HE shells has been corrected:
  • Kinetic damage parameters have been increased in accordance to their energy
  • Spread sectors, damage and armour piercing capabilities of shell fragments have been fixed. Main damage comes in focused cones in the direction of the projectile and to the sides of it. The weakest fragments were left in the bottom section
  • The fuze arming and delay parameters have been changed so that, depending on the calibre and class of the ship being fired at, the shells are armed at certain modules and thicknesses. The delays of the fuzes are selected so that the shell explodes closer to the middle of the ship's beam (at its average values, entry angles, etc.)
  • For many shells, the parameters of the loss of speed in flight, air resistance and flight time have been clarified, which led to some changes in armour penetration.
• The distances of shells under water have been corrected. Once in the water the shell can easily exceed the distance equal to about 80-100 of its calibre, after which it will lose all killing power. 
• The damage model of smoke funnels has been fixed - they are harder to disable now: from 2-3 hits by AP shells of their class, and from 1-2 HE shells.The drop in the maximum ship speed when smoke funnels are damaged or destroyed has been reduced
• USS Atlanta (CL-51) - hull and deck armouring has been fixed. Overhead anti-splinter armour plates are now located at the sides

Economy and research

• The aircraft class “Attacker” has been renamed to “Strike Aircraft” and extended with the addition of a large number of vehicles. The definition of “attacker” was mainly used by the Soviet and American aircraft construction schools but within the game the vehicles of these class get a number of advantages in comparison to strike fighters (increased rewards for destroying ground and surface targets; reduced reloading time of the suspended weaponry in AB; separated from fighters respawn scores multiplier in ground RB) even if it is close to them in nature. List of aircraft moved to the “Strike Aircraft” class due to their combined characteristics, armament and primary target type in combat:
  • USA: FJ-4B, AV-8C, FJ-4B VMF-232, AV-8A, F3D-1, F-84B-26, F-84G-21-RE, F-84F.

Interface

• The setting options of aerobatic smoke have been moved from aircraft combat settings to the test flight window and the respawn window of the multiplayer game sessions.
• A loading screen filter has been added to the main settings options which allows you to exclude unwanted loading screens from the rotation (available with premium account). The filter will be applied only after logging into the game with a personal account and doesn’t affect the initial screen in the login window.
• In the pop-up info card for shells for ground and naval vehicles, an animated tip has been added, explaining the type of impact of the given shell on a target. This feature will appear in the game in one of the upcoming minor updates.

Game mechanics

• Preset nuclear weapon-carrying aircraft have been added to RB tank battles. When a player spawns in such an aircraft, an air raid signal is triggered at the capture points. The bomb can only be dropped on the battlefield part of the map (where ground vehicles of the players are moving) so the enemy team will have a chance to intercept. After a successful bomb drop and detonation the team scores an instant victory. Aircraft nuclear weapon carriers are available for respawn for all players if they accumulate enough respawn score (3000 regardless of the game session BR, number of respawns on other aircraft and successful scouting) and are divided by rank of the game session:
  • BR 6.7-7.7: Тu-4 / B-29A-BN;
  • BR 8.0-9.0: Il-28 / Canberra B.Mk.6;
  • BR 9.3+: Su-7BKL / Jaguar A.
• The icon of the scouted player in ground RB has been replaced from the hit marker to a unique one.
• For the players in aircraft in the ground and naval realistic battles modes, a marker has been added in the battle (game space) for the radio command “Attention on the map”.
• Critical damage activity timer has been separated by difficulty level and instead of 90 seconds is now: 75 seconds in AB, 120 seconds in RB, 150 seconds in SB
• The mechanics of counting serious damage in the aircraft destruction scoring system has been changed. Now at the end of the timer, serious damage will not be reset, but will remain on the target until it will be destroyed   or repaired at the airfield but will have lowest priority among all types of damage. The priority is now as follows:
  • Active critical damage
  • Active serious damage
  • Active simple damage
  • Expired critical damage
  • Expired serious damage (new)
• The “Historical” and “Semi-historical” content display options in the battle have been combined into one - “Except Fictional”. The historical validity labels of the items remain unchanged and still include three separate ones: Historical, Semi-Historical and Fictional. It is recommended to go to the Appearance Settings and make sure that you have selected the desired settings.

Graphical

• The effects of hits from all shells on hard surfaces (metal, soil, sand, concrete etc) have been improved.
• The radius of the blast wave on firing effects has been increased and the saturation has been reduced. 
• The buoy model has been replaced by a barrel in the ship’s hangar. 
• The glow of the flame effects has been improved.

Sound

• New sound design for all aircraft weaponry has been created.
• New sound design for anti-aircraft guns on aircraft locations has been created. 
• New sounds for bursting anti-aircraft gun shells in the air have been added.
• New explosion sounds to support the new visual effects of shells hitting different surfaces (metal, ground, sand, concrete etc) have been created.
• Bombs of different masses have different explosion sounds. They are divided into three groups - small, medium, and large.
• The nature of the explosion sounds and gunshots depends not only on the distance of the sound source to the listener, but also on the height of the listener above the ground/water surface.
• The functionality of the “Radio Chat Volume” and “Speech and FMV Volume” has been changed in the audio volume settings. “Radio Chat Volume” is now responsible only for the volume of the radio messages to the team. “Speech and FMV Volume” is responsible for all other voice messages (crew talks, briefings, tutorials, etc).
• A mechanism for limiting the use of custom sound modifications has been implemented for the tournament battles. When attempting to participate in a tournament by using custom sound mods you will see a dialog box with the message: “Sound mods are prohibited in the selected game mode. To turn off mods you need to restart the game. Restart the game?” 
• T-34 engines now have the authentic sound of the original tank’s diesel.
• Leopard 1 tanks have had their own engine sound added.
• Some ground vehicle engine sounds have been changed to a more historically correct version.

Changes and fixes for VR devices

• Now you can toggle the VR mode in the section “graphic” from the game settings in the “hangar”. To apply any changes, players need to restart the game.
• Display of marks for collimator sights has been corrected - Now their scale corresponds to the size of the marks when using a monitor.
• A bug has been fixed where the collimator sight might shift to the side of the motion when turning your head which was causing the incorrect indication of the aiming point.
• A bug has been fixed where in VR mode, the tank damage indicator sometimes wasn’t shown.
