Update 1.19.1 – Quality of Life Update


[h3]Soldiers![/h3]Update 1.19.1 is here!
Visibility updates, better Tank vs. Tank matchups, faster first vehicle unlock, bug fixes and more!

[h2]Tank vs. Tank Matchups[/h2]In update 1.19.1 light tankers can look forward to a better match up!
Tank Crew with Light Tanks only will now exclusively join matches against other Light Tanks in the Tank vs. Tank gamemode.

It’s time for you to pick someone your own size!

[h2]Tank Recoil[/h2]Tankers will immediately notice that we have decreased the physical recoil of firing a shell from a tank. This will allow hull gunners to have less wobble when assisting a friendly tank.
We added camera recoil instead to simulate the same effect for the main cannons.

Now stop dancin’ and start shootin’!

[h2]Performance Optimization and Visibility Improvements[/h2]Blood-splatter and Glass Impact effects have been decreased substantially to increase visibility and performance.



Anti-Tank Rifles also had their smoke effect decreased when firing the gun to improve the experience by increasing both visibility and performance.

Aircraft windscreens have also been cleaned up a bit and now feature less dirt and grime.

[h2]Infantry Vehicle Progression[/h2]New soldiers will now find it easier to unlock their first Infantry Vehicle. We have moved the first Infantry Vehicle unlock to the Infantry Assault Ribbon, resulting in a much smoother and faster first infantry vehicle unlock pace for new Soldiers.

[h2]Account Level Up Notifications[/h2]Upon leveling up your account, you will now get a popup explaining what you now can do. This includes but is not limited to Game Mode unlocks and Soldier Types.

[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]We have taken a look at the Airfield Map and fixed several bugs. The Runway should no longer pop in and out of existence and the model itself has been converted to Physically Based Rendering for a more crisp look.

Capture Point O3 has also been tweaked to include all bunkers in the Capture Zone, collision fixes have been applied to a bunker variant and bunker height has been fixed at C2.

Forward Airfield also had it’s floating guard towers, hedgehogs, wire fences and sandbags properly placed.

[h2]REPAIR YOUR TANK, BRING YOUR FRIEND AS GUNNER AND FIGHT![/h2]

Enjoy!
RETO MOTO
