Soldiers!


Season 2 is coming to an end, for those who still have an ongoing Battle Pass, now is the time to finish it! For those just wanting more information about season 3, just keep reading!

Most of our features are shaping up nicely, we did however feel that certain features needed a bit more time to be fleshed out better and required some more testing. That is why we have pushed back a few of the planned changes.

After our previous Developer Update, we noticed that not everyone was looking forward to the ability to buy previous battle passes. Before the release of this feature, we will create a dedicated blog post to explain how it works exactly and why purchasing and finishing the Battle Pass during its own season certainly has its advantages!

We are also working on a blog post to explain how chat moderation will work and how to join the chat moderation team!.

Developer Blogs


In the developer blogs, we share all the tasks that we have completed in the past few weeks, which features are currently being tested, are still being worked on and of course all the bugs that we have squashed! We will end each developer blog with a short look at what we will be working on in the upcoming weeks.

We will not always be able to share all the details of our work. Some items are too far in the future to talk about already. Certain tasks contain internal information that we just cannot share. Every once in a while, we might be working on something we want to surprise you with! We will do our best to be as transparent as we can!

Be advised that not every feature that we have completed will be deployed in the upcoming release. Some features are part of larger updates that will be released further into the future.

Completed Cycle

Done*:

  • Created chat-moderation guide
  • Created chat-moderation tools and role
  • White smoke for planes (non-battle pass)
  • Improved the ‘Supplies Received’ pop-up for better visuals and improved functionality

Note: Features that are Done are often part of larger updates planned on specific dates and may not be immediately available.

In Testing*:

  • Battle Pass S3 rewards

Moved back:*:

  • Change capital cities for the upcoming season
  • Change several battlefield types on the war map (more airfields)
  • Add two small scripted events in the First encounter missions for a more interesting experience
  • Ability to reactivate/purchase previous Battle Passes

Bug fixes:

  • Fixed an issue with the soldier purchase screen, a general shows as only having 2 Command Points
  • Fixed an issue with veteran membership, in some cases 2 or more veteran memberships would activate at the same time
  • Fixed an issue with localisation, XP boosters showed a wrong string of text

Note: Bugs that have been fixed are often part of larger updates planned on specific dates and may not be immediately available.

New Cycle

In Progress:

  • Battle Pass S3 rewards
  • Several (delayed) features for the mid-season release

Planned:

  • Testing & Bug fixes!
