Update Notes for July 23, 2024

Marks of Excellence

Marks of Excellence were first added to the game nine years ago, in July 2015!

In 2021, we made a change to the map performance factor that was used to make it an accurate factor based on the maximum tank performance difference on maps. This change, while it made the formula for Marks of Excellence more accurate, was not received positively.

We're happy to announce that we have restored the original map performance factors that players enjoyed and have asked to have reinstated. The new factors provide more leniency in reaching the target requirements for Marks of Excellence 1-3, which allows these to be earned more quickly.

The newest MoE, Mark #4 for 100%, remains the same, for those who wish to prove that they are the best of the best in a particular vehicle.

ATGM Minimum Arming Distance and Acceleration Improvements

ATGMs are being updated in two ways: minimum arming distance and improved acceleration values.

Minimum Arming Distance

Minimum arming distance is the distance the ATGM needs to travel until it is "armed" and can do its full damage and penetration. With a minimum arming distance, when you are too close to your target, the HUD will have an X over your reticle with a note that you are too close. You can still fire the ATGM, but as the missile is not armed, its damage potential is reduced to only 25% of its base damage and its penetration is only 75% of its base value.

ATGMs will be set to one of two values based on the vehicle: 65m or 100m. The minimum arming distance and the % of damage and penetration, when not armed, can be viewed on the tank's detailed stats page.

You'll also hear new "doink" impacts when hitting a tank with an ATGM that did not arm.

8-9 Update - Minimum Arming Distance 5_Highlights

Acceleration

In addition to encouraging a farther engagement distance with the minimum arming distance, players also provided feedback that ATGMs feel slow. The slow speed is likely a contributing factor for players using a tactic more like shotgunning with these weapon types.

To address this, the acceleration values for ATGMs have been increased so that they'll quickly reach their max speed. The new acceleration will greatly decrease the time it takes to hit a target, giving them better usability at range.

The acceleration rate for impacted ATGMs is currently 20-40 meters per second and is increasing to 80-145 meters per second depending on the ATGM.

Anti-Duplicate System for Chests Bought with Gold

War Chests that can be purchased with Gold (a.k.a. Tank War Chests and Commander War Chests) will now feature an improved anti-duplicate system.

Before, a player could receive a duplicate "Epic" reward with any given opening. The no-duplicate check would only happen on the guaranteed drop and not the normal opens. This new anti-duplicate system will now check the player's inventory for each chest opened, and players will not receive a duplicate Epic reward until they own all "Epic" rewards that can be acquired.

This new system will make it so that now there is an equal chance at getting an Epic reward that a player does not already have. (An example of this would be if the Object 477A "Molot" was in a Tank War Chest--the player will no longer get the "Molot" if they already own it but don't have another tank that is in the "Epic" rewards drop table.)

This change does not affect how Private, Sergeant, and General War Chests function.

Low-Tier Autocannon Update

Low-tier autocannons are receiving an update. Some lower-tier guns are autocannons but with burst fire (1 trigger pull = 3 to 5 shots). With this update, this will no longer be the case, and these guns will now act like normal autocannons. This will enable the ability to fire a single shot per trigger pull instead of multiple shots per trigger pull. The following tanks have been updated with these changes:

Additional Improvements

The game launcher and login flow have been visually updated. With this, the What's New images now display as part of the login process, cycling between the available images, so they can be viewed as you log in instead of you manually paging from one image to the next while sitting on the launcher.
Removed the seven-tank minimum to open the tank filter and adjusted the layout to accommodate displaying Cold War tanks on the same display without having to scroll while in event modes.
Updated the game mode icons on the game mode menu.
The game now supports super ultrawide (32:9) displays.
Adjusted AI logic to move forward when enemies are both in the front and rear so that the bot doesn't stay stationary.
Re-activated the Eyes Peeled achievement.
Updated Gore Medal requirement:
- Gore Medal's damage requirement has been adjusted to x4 HP.
- Minimum of 2000 damage.
Added a keybinding for artillery to switch between strategic and trajectory cameras.
Updated the UI for the various pop-up celebration/reward displays.
Updated the names from Performance Report → Battle Statistics and Efficiency Report → Combat Report in the PBRS.
Added a new submenu in the Profile tab allowing players to use the trigger buttons to navigate the different menu options.
Updated labels for camera mode/zoom when using mouse and keyboard.
Reticle center dot is now color-filled for better visibility.
New ammo purchase panel and purchase prompt for saving your ammunition loadout.
Added a HVAP Premium ammo icon.
The Store will have a new category: Offers. The new Offers section will contain the Free Daily War Chest and is where other special timed deals such as Super Savings bundles will be displayed.

Issues Addressed

General:

When highlighting a placed piece of Garage Gear, the display now says "Select Gear" instead of "Place Gear."
Reticle now displays the correct the ammo type during the match countdown if there is no standard ammo mounted.
Multi-Turret and Secondary Weapon Systems only display the "Ready" message when the reloading barrel/turret is the active one.
Completed Challenges will no longer appear on the Loading screen display.
Opening the Settings menu while in the Challenges tab no longer causes the submenu to disappear.
Moved the Consumable display on the HUD farther to the right so it doesn't overlap with long ammunition names.
Friends list display now has the players correct Friend ID.
3D Commander David Avraham is now available in the Commander recruit menu.

Tanks:

Nemesis Main Battle Tank: Updated the Camouflage so it applies correctly in all areas.
