List of Update 0.30.5852 Changes
Mechanized Infantry ReturnsIn this Update, we are returning the Mechanized Infantry feature to the game. As we promised, we made a number of changes that were previously broadly described in our
dedicated article.Here’s what else changed:
- Friendly fire does no longer affect Mechanized Infantry (it’s still possible to run them over though)
- Improved the spotting range of prone Snipers
- Mechanized Infantry damage no longer protects you from being tagged as AFK
- Once per minute, a Sniper can mark spotted enemies in order for them to receive increased damage
- Added a new medal called Recon Squad for spotting enemies using your Mechanized Infantry
- Fixed the Mortar Squad shell trajectory
- Your Dossier now also shows Mechanized Infantry-related statistics
- Fixed several UI issues (Infantry designation etc.)
At the same time, we are introducing a new feature for MBTs – coaxial machineguns. A large number of MBTs will have their coaxial machineguns enabled as a separate weapon system – you can switch between MGs and your main weapon by pressing the button 4 (default setting) practically instantly.

Please note that for the purpose of the game, all coaxial machineguns are of 7.62mm caliber. After all, the game takes place in the 2040s and all mercenaries have retrofitted their vehicles to this caliber.
The machineguns fire AP bullets that deal 8-9 damage and can penetrate 18mm of steel. These are usable only against infantry or very lightly armored targets (such as Wiesels and Kornets), but they can be used to effectively puncture wheeled vehicle tires.
Kinetic Missile Vehicle RebalanceThe vehicles that are armed with kinetic missiles are being rebalanced for improved gameplay.
