Commanders,

As we mentioned in a previous article, we’ve been looking at new ways to bring enjoyment to the game as part of a “quality of life” initiative.

One area we’d like to explore is updating the Auto-Aim mechanic. Our goal is to encourage players to use Auto-Aim for close combat and highly mobile gameplay, and to master using Manual Aim and Sniper Cam against long-range targets. We also hope this reduces the number of snap shots occurring in Cold War mode, incentivizing more strategic aiming.

So, we plan to test some adjustments to Auto-Aim:

What to expect during the test:

• For targets within 200 m, Auto-Aim's functionality will be the same.
• For targets farther than 200 m:
  • You will have to aim closer to the tank for the tank’s information panel to display.
  • You will have to move your camera directly "on" the tank before you can activate Auto-Aim to lock on to the target.

During the week that this test is live, we hope you’ll come up with new tactics and find novel ways to engage your opponents on the battlefield. We will be monitoring this test and will let you know what we find as soon as possible.

And of course, we welcome your feedback! Let us know what you think of these changes on our social media channels or our Discord.

As always, thank you for rolling out with us and helping us shape this game. See you on the battlefield!
