Game Update 1.2.3

Dear Tankers and Mechanics!

News in Patch 1.2.3


We have obtained classified documents published on a gaming forum. These documents reveal that a German super-heavy tank took part in combat on the Eastern Front in 1943. Weighing 188 tonnes, this colossus was hastily built and assembled. Its unique camouflage was painted by a famous watercolor artist. Consequently, we decided that we had to add this tank to make the game more realistic.

Force Pool Creator


In March, we worked on adding a force pool creator. From now on, you can edit the force pool for campaigns as well as for individual missions, including skirmishes. Procedural missions will also be added in the future. You can add units, create new squads or companies for your own forces or for the enemy’s forces. You can also filter vehicles by year, allowing you to build presets for specific time periods or add vehicles that are completely out of place – whichever you prefer. We plan to expand it and allow to have presets as a mods too.

Flash sale

Today we are launching a flash sale on the game. The 25% discount will last for the next 5 days. Sale will start 1 april 7 pm CEST and will last till end of April 5 also 7 pm CEST.

We're back from gamescom and immediately straight to action. This update brings in more optimization (this time the size of the meshes we use got decreased, so it should bring from 100-200 MB less on memory usage), issues with pathfinding through bridges, other sound modifications and so on.

In this patch we are addressing issues reported by players about crashes As a quick reaction we decided temporarily to block all molotovs and other fire sources which are the main cause for the game to crash. Its a temp solution since we are heading to Gamescom and can't right now to do a normal procedure to bug hunt and test internally a good solution for it. Really…
