[p][/p][p]WWII Online receives a major pass on the way HE works in our game (with more work intended), from HE shrapnel penetration being reactivated for the first time in 15+ years, to bombs having devastating impact against armor via concussive damage. Improving the quality of life and general user experience of the game is also reflected in a series of fixes outlined in this release. Your support makes this possible. Subscribe and support the Rats continue development at  https://account.wwiionline.com[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Very soon this patch will be released into OPEN BETA. Once the Open Beta has concluded and items are fully verified, this update will be made available on the live campaign server. That timeline is dependent on verification, but the goal is deploy this update in July 2025. [/p][p]

[p]Important feedback improvement incoming to WWII Online, regarding "Aircraft Stress Damage." This will effectively alert pilots to "take it easy" before reaching the critical structural failure across all aircraft, by introducing "creaking" sounds at around 50% of your G limit, generating crucial awareness that if you keep going in this direction - bad stuff is gonna happen.[/p][p][/p][p]Have a look:
[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]Our team at CRS is always listening to the players working to bring you a better experience. We hope this change is welcome and will provide you a better opportunity to correct before it is too late. Aircraft Stress Damage was a long awaited addition to our game, and with a little fine tuning as represented in this video, we believe you'll have a much better shot at recognizing the stress and correcting it, before it becomes critical.[/p][p][/p][p]Let us know your thoughts, comment below![/p][p]S![/p][p]Cornered Rats Software[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Connect to our Social Media to get more updates and grow your squad![/h2][p]JOIN OUR DISCORD[/p][p][/p][p]Subscribe to our YouTube channel[/p][p]Join our Facebook Group[/p][p]Watch us on Twitch[/p][p]Follow us on TikTok[/p][p][/p][h2]Unlock all gear.

[p]Originally released on June 6th, 2001, WWII Online came to be, and its continuation now to June 6th, 2025, is 100% because of the community's unwavering commitment to support and see this wonderful game reach its full potential.
[/p][p]As we reflect on this extraordinary achievement of 24 years of continuous operations and 200+ campaigns, I have asked some of our team members to share some of their thoughts and stories. A couple of them were here from the very beginning as original developers, and some of us rose up from the community directly answering the call to serve. There's no script in their feedback and they were given full autonomy to share whatever they felt important to them to share.[/p][h3]Read the full article on our official website[/h3][p][/p][p]We'd love to get your story or some words by commenting to this article as well![/p][p]Share your story, comment below.[/p]
