Main Changes

Changes to Technical Characteristics of Vehicles

Crew

• Two crew perks have been updated (with no grace period for their reset):
  • Practicality now decreases consumable cooldown time by 15% (or by 30% with the Thorough Preparations directive).
  • Reliable Placement now increases HE shell damage absorption by 15%.
• The filter toggles on the crew member change screen and in the Barracks now remember the settings selected by the player.
• The Auto Return to Vehicle feature has been added. Players can enable this feature for any vehicle in their Garage. When activated, the last crew that fought a battle in that vehicle will automatically return to it as soon as the vehicle is selected in the vehicle panel.
• A brand-new crew operation, Mentoring Course, has been added. It allows players to transfer Crew XP from one crew member to another using a special new item, the Mentoring License. The crew member from whom the XP is transferred is subsequently removed from the player's account. All players can receive 3 free Mentoring Licenses by logging in to the game before the release of Update 1.28.1 (April 14–16).

• Crew members can now be managed more quickly and conveniently on the Quick Training screen. Standard operations with crew members can be selected and performed just like in the Garage.

  Other Improvements:

• On the Quick Training screen, players can now quickly adjust the number of Crew Books using the mouse scroll wheel.

• The Vehicles filter has been removed from the list of filters in the Barracks as it was rarely used.

• Fixed the issue of players not being able to select their desired nation or vehicle type while recruiting crew members in some cases.

• Fixed the issue of the Edit and Remove icons not appearing when hovering over a card on the Appearance screen.

• Fixed the issue of a notification bubble about new recruits in the Barracks continuing to appear even after the player had entered the Barracks and viewed them.

• Various minor changes and fixes have been made to crew-related interfaces.

Steel Hunter: Shamrock Showdown

• All yellow loot (Supplies) has transformed into green loot (Consumables). Green loot still contains all essential items, as well as Lucky Seals.
• The event features the return of the 404, a rare AI-controlled Marauder. Defeating it will grant a significant reward of Lucky Seals.
• In addition to Battle Pass Points for your ranking at the end of the battle, you can also earn extra Points in the event Progression.
• Updates and modifications introduced over the past year have been incorporated into the mode, including random Platoons, adjustments to vehicle strengths and weaknesses, spotted loot display on the minimap, and more.
• The progressive 2D style introduced in the summer 2024 launch is available again and can be earned in the Progression.

Battle Pass

• A new post-Progression, the Elite Circuit, is now unlocked after completing the main Battle Pass Chapters. Its cyclical Progression allows players to earn additional rewards.
• A new item, Vouchers, has been added. They can be earned in the Elite Circuit and scratched to receive rewards.
