World War

  • The display of vehicles that are presented in the mission currently unavailable to players for respawn has been added.
  • The algorithm for the automatic creation of vehicle presets in World War has been changed: previously the vehicles with the highest BR were placed in the best vehicle slots (in terms of level and crew skills). Now the first used will be all ace slots, then expert, then base. Thus, the created vehicle preset will use qualified crews more often for players.
  • Changes in the operation “Nordwind”:
    • The impact of the ownership in key sectors on the arrival speed of reinforcements has been reduced from 30% to 10%.

      • M4 (75 mm): 15 → 10;
      • M4 (76 mm): 10 → 15;
