Each new account is now granted with a 30-days premium pass.
Once the trial ends, players now get an upgraded FREE PLAY account with rifles, reserve SMGs, some paratroopers, trucks, reserve light guns, reserve light tanks and reserve medium tanks. They can continue to capture flags, use the binocculars and place player-placed objects, including mobile spawns.

In counter-part, DLC owners now take their supply directly from premium pools.

We hope this will please our steam players who love our game and want to remain part of our community.

In case you haven't heard yet, we're moving the server base to Portland, Oregon. Since the beginning, the servers have been in Dallas TX, so why the move? Continue reading to find out more, and support this effort (along with others) directly by contributing to the WWII Online funding campaign.

For sometime now Cornered Rat Software has been working hard to improve and amplify the WWII Online experience. We've effectively restarted game development, added new content and features, and continue to provide bug fixes. We've also re-worked the servers a bit, but there's more to be done.

Not only will the move to Portland OR help provide great connectivity across the globe, it is the home-base of Cornered Rat Software, and the West Coast of USA is where most of our technical team is. Logistically, it makes a lot of sense.

The good news is, we'll be able to retain servers obtained through other efforts that meet the power / performance / remote management requirements that we have. By doing this, we can achieve more and improve up-times.

We're asking for your financial commitment to help us set up this all-new, better connected, better cooled and operated server housing site by contributing directly to the WWII Online funding campaign. By doing this, you're enabling CRS to achieve more, for you.

The more support that comes in, the better of a job we can do to not only create this new server setup (which will also reduce recurring monthly operating costs on our end - enabling more game development), but it will also allow us to purchase important tools and assets to enhance the games performance and visual appeal.

Please contribute to, and support this vital effort at www.wwiionline.com/fund.

WWII Online remains 100% community funded. Your support is greatly appreciated, and funding drives like these help us move mountains in terms of progress made.

Here is the short list of priorities that this funding campaign is designed to support:

1. Create a whole new server base for WWII Online.
   
2. Renew essential software for game development.
   
3. Obtain a newer version of SpeedTree to improve graphics of environmental objects.
   
4. Support the development of the current Roadmap.
   
5. Enhance marketing reach to obtain new players.
   

Congratulations to the Axis Forces on securing 3 Allied Factories and securing a foothold in England, winning Campaign 168! The Allies put up a strong fight and overall it was a solid Campaign.

The new campaign 169 will start soon and we are preparing for the upcoming "Welcome Back Soldier" which starts on October 1st and will run through the 15th: all past subscribers will be reactivated during this time automatically - at no charge.

Please be sure to spread awareness of this immediately so we have maximum server numbers.

See you in the battlefield!
