Operators!

We hope that the winter break was a moment of rest for you. We have managed to recharge our batteries and are back to work in the new key year for World War 3 - 2025!



In the patch 0.3, we focused mainly on fixing the problem of respawning in odd places, like inside walls, roofs or objects, where no one should ever set foot. We also continued to tweak the maps for appearance and performance. As usual, we've also made some changes to the backend to make it easier to work with, and we've added new content related to the Evergreen Battle Pass that's coming in the near future. Could even be in the very near future.
*Note that you can't use it in games yet.

See the full list of changes below:

• Fixed issues causing "you were kicked out of the match" error
  
• Fixed 90% of respawn points in odd places such as walls, roofs, inside some objects, etc. on all maps. Please note - we've yet to fix the remaining 10%, so on rare occasions you may still experience this
  
• Fixed respawn points that were causing players to be thrown into the air or teleported long distances

Operators!

To help us improve World War 3, we'd like to know your opinion about the current state of the game. You can help us by filling out a survey.

We've done a similar one last year and you've told us you want improvements to the game's performance, stability, anti-cheat and matchmaking. We've addressed lots of these in the last 3 patches (Update 0, Patch 0.1, Patch 0.2). And there's still more to do.

But it's been a year since the last survey and we need to make sure we're still on the right track.

Please fill in the new one and tell us what you like and dislike most about the current version of the game, as well as suggesting what you think could be improved.



Each player who completes the survey will be rewarded with 500 UNC. It will be open until the 26th of January at 23:59 CET.
Rewards will be distributed until the 7th of February.

Please note: to receive the reward - you need to provide your SteamID64.
Here's how to get it:

1) From the main Steam window, click on your nickname in the top right corner and select 'Account Details'.

2) On the next screen - copy the SteamID number.


You can also find your SteamID64 on steamid.io by searching for your Steam nickname.




Or use this link.

We truly appreciate your help!
