Update 1.27: Festive Strike

From 2024-11-30 at 06:00:00 (UTC)

Random Events on Cliff and Siegfried Line

Random Events are expanding to two new Random Battle maps: Cliff and Siegfried Line. Each event scenario offers unique, evolving battlegrounds and tactical opportunities.

Cliff: Lighthouse Crash (Two-Part Random Event)

In this two-part event, a plane crashes into the lighthouse, sending debris to block key lines of sight and provide strategic cover. Here’s how each stage unfolds:

  • Part 1: Lighthouse Impact and Debris Blocking
    • Debris Obstruction: As the plane collides with the lighthouse, debris falls, blocking lines of sight and creating cover for vehicles ascending the mountain.
    • Defensive Zone: The fallen debris forms a sheltering position near the lighthouse, where a vehicle can remain almost completely hidden.
    • Central Shielding: Additional debris sections block central firing lines, protecting against shots from key map positions.
  • Part 2: Plane Crash and Extended Cover
    • Flank Blocking: The new debris obstructs critical firing lanes on one flank, adding cover for flanking maneuvers.
    • Crossing Cover: Wreckage along the center protects players moving through central areas.

Siegfried Line: Carpet Bombing Random Event

This event unfolds with a bombing run over the urban map area, reshaping the terrain and creating new tactical opportunities.

  • Destruction Effects: Certain buildings are leveled, passageways are opened, and new positions are created for both teams.
    • New Cover: Debris forms defensive spots, including “balcony” positions, allowing for varied strategic use.
    • Closed Firing Lanes: Some lines of sight are obstructed, making inter-direction movement safer.
    • Open Passages: Clear paths allow for streamlined travel between city blocks.
  • Additional Adjustments:
    • Collision Zones: Destroyed areas become hazardous to vehicles upon impact, resulting in instant destruction.
    • Cleared Vegetation: Existing foliage in impacted areas is removed for clearer sightlines and navigation.
Both events introduce new cover options and gameplay twists, encouraging fresh tactical approaches. To experience these events, make sure to enable "Maps Under Development" in your game settings.

Well-Deserved Reward: Your Gifts for 2023 and 2024

As the end of the year approaches, it’s time to get your Well-Deserved Reward! Here’s an update: the 2023 Reward has been extended, giving you until 2024-12-04 at 04:00:00 (UTC) to collect it—just log in to the game!

Afterward, the new 2024 Well-Deserved Reward will become available from 2024-12-05 at 04:00:00 (UTC). If you want to get your reward during the upcoming Holiday Ops, log in to the game and claim your gifts through the notification center.

Keep an eye out—more information about the 2024 Well-Deserved Reward and a preview of what’s in store are coming soon!

3D Attachments: A New Type of Customization

Update 1.27 will introduce 3D Attachments—a brand-new way to personalize your vehicles!

3D Attachments will become available soon during the Holiday Ops event. When Update 1.27 goes live, the Exterior screen interface in your Garage will update with the changes; however, you won’t see any 3D Attachments until you receive them in Holiday Ops. You'll then be able to try out 3D Attachments on your vehicles, mixing and matching them with your 2D styles and other customizations.

Plus, two new vehicle carousel filters will be added, letting you quickly find vehicles equipped with 3D styles and those compatible with 3D Attachments.

Prepare for even more customization options as we get closer to the festive season! 3D Attachments will come in three rarity levels (Rare, Epic, and Legendary), with Legendary attachments including unique visual and sound effects. Learn more details in our dedicated article on 3D Attachments.
