Game changes

Reworked air battles sound

New sounds for aircraft machine guns and cannons have been added.
The dependence of the sound characteristic being created for the firing sound based on the angle of viewing on the aircraft gun has been added. Implemented for 3rd person view on player's aircraft on both allied and enemy aircraft.
The dependence of the sound characteristic being created for the firing sound based on the angle of viewing on ground-based weapons has been added. Implemented for 3rd person view on player's vehicle on both allied and enemy vehicles.
The dependence of the sound characteristic of the engine operation and the mechanical operation of the tracks/wheels on the angle of view on ground vehicles has been added. Implemented for 3rd person view on player's vehicle on both allied and enemy vehicles.
For a player's aircraft, the mechanical sounds of the gun have been added at a specific viewing angle when seen from third person.
For a player's aircraft, as seen from the third person, during shooting, with the camera position opposite the gun barrel, the sounds of the bullets have been added.
Added sounds of dropping cases, for aircraft standing on the ground or slowly moving on the surface.
When shooting at the surface of the earth at low speed, or at rest, now there are reverberating tails.
The dependence of the sound character of shots for Allied / enemy aircraft has been added, depending on the distance of hits.
The cockpit canopy now strongly filters out external sounds, greatly reducing their intensity.
The sound of shots within sight of the cockpit now consist of two main components. These are shots outside the aircraft, filtered by the cockpit's canopy, and the jolts / blows of the machine gun / gun mechanisms located in the structure of the aircraft.
If the breech mechanism exists in the cockpit, the mechanical operation of the gun will be audible during the shot.
In turrets on aircraft, from the first person view, the mechanical sounds of of the gun and turret will now be heard.
The mechanical sounds have changed when shooting from machine guns in ground vehicles, when seen from the first person.
Changed the nature of the reverberation in the cockpit more realistically, with the cockpit canopy closed.
When you open the cockpit canopy, the cockpit reverb smoothly goes into the reverberation of the open space.
If there is an open turret on the aircraft, and a view from the first person is available, the reverb and the sound environment will be the same for an open cockpit.
The sound of the mechanics of the aircraft turret has been added as it rotates, when viewed from the first person.
With overloads, the character of the sound of the engine of the aircraft changes slightly, when observed from the cockpit.
After launching a rocket, when switching to the camera following the rocket, you can now hear the sound of the rocket engine, depending on the viewing angle.
The sound of impact on the aircraft frame when landing on any hard surface has been added.
The sound of the aircraft rolling on a hard surfaces has been added in 3rd person view and cockpit.
The sound of pneumatic brakes on the frame undercarriage from within the cockpit of aircraft has been added.
Sound corrections for ground vehicle cannons equipped with muzzle brakes have been made.

For ground vehicles with blowout ammunition panels, new fire mechanics have been introduced. Fires in compartments with blowout panels can not be put out with FPE if the ammo is on fire, and will instead go out after the propellant charges burn out (15-30 secs). However, fires may start in other parts of the vehicle. If the armoured protection of the ammo load is struck, it won't be able to protect the crew from the fire and the vehicle will subsequently be lost.
the order of ammunition use has been specified for the following vehicles:
- Nb.Fz

He 177 — The PC 1400 Х (Fritz X) controlled bomb has been added. You can aim by adjusting the pitch and yaw axes. The control of the bomb is implemented in a similar way to how rudder controls work, with the point on which the bomb will land being indicated by the bombsight crosshair. Crosshair risks (the lines of the crosshair) indicate the zone in which the aerodynamic capabilities of the controlled bomb allow you to correct its course to the intended target. So for example, the closer you are to the ground, the less adjustments will be possible.
The nomenclature of ammunition has been completely redesigned - ShVAK cannon and B-20, turret-mounted ShVAK and B-20 — API-T round has been removed (Armor-piercing incendiary tracer). This projectile was not produced and was not used in the USSR.

The ability to ‘mirror’ decals on vehicles has been added.
Setting enabling automatic selection of camouflage on ground vehicles has been added to the menu in "customization" of ground vehicles.
New feature “Protections analysis” has been added to the armour view mode. Select a potential enemy tank specify the shell type and the range of fire. By moving the cursor over the ground vehicle armour you can find out the probability of penetration, the equivalent of protection from the specified ammunition and also damage depending on the distance of the attack, the angle of the hit (corresponds to the direction of the view in the hangar).
The ability to display the camouflage on a damaged vehicle model has been added in the “Customization” menu (show damaged model). For aircraft, with the help of the cursor it is possible to specify the separate damaged element of a covering.
The names of some ground vehicles and aircraft in the research trees, and some armament, have been adjusted.

Game mechanics

Delays implemented for ground vehicle active modification use, 15-second for fire-fighting equipment and 60-second for crew replenishment. The timer starts from the endpoint use of fire extinguisher or replenishment of the crew member, respectively.
The conditions for gaining the battle award “Scouting” have been changed - the award will be given for destruction of a target by an ally which has been scouted by the player.
The conditions for gaining the battle award “According to Intelligence” have been changed - award will be given for the destruction of enemy vehicles based on the allied scouting results.
New battle award “Help with Repairing” has been added - the award will be given for helping an ally with repairing of their vehicle not more than 3 times in one battle.
New battle tasks have been added:
“One Step Ahead” - receive the required number of times the battle award “According to Intelligence”.
“Scout” - receive the required number of times the battle award “Scouting”.
“Set to Work” - receive the required number of times the battle award “Help with Repairing”.
Changes in the PvE-missions “Assault”:
Daily award for aircraft and ground vehicle assault is not related and you can get them both within one day.
Universal backup vehicle for appropriate type of the vehicles (aircraft/ground vehicle) has been added to the award for victory.
Number of enemies in the attacker waves depends on the number of players remaining in the session.
The minimum number of players needed to start the event has been reduced.
Changes in the PvE-mission “Assault. Tank arcade”:
Mission in the location “Maginot Line” has been added. In this mission players will fight against French vehicles controlled by AI (1-5 difficulty level).
Mission in the location “Fulda” has been added. In this mission players will fight against vehicles of NATO controlled by AI (6th difficulty level).
After successful completion of enemy waves, several selectable bonuses which will restore all modules, crew and ammunition and will give additional use of the FPE and crew replenishment will spawn around the base. On the 1st and 2nd difficulty level there are no more than two bonuses after each wave, on the 3rd no more than 3 and so on. At the same time there can be no more than 10 bonuses in the location.
The algorithm for the loss of the player's team points when the enemy is inside the defended sector and algorithm for calculating bonuses based on the result of each wave have been changed. Now these parameters will change not intermittently once per wave but by arithmetic progression.
AI tanks will now use different shells.
Loss of ammunition in AI tanks will not allow them to fire on players.
The number of AI aircraft attacking players has been reduced.

Known Issues:

Errors may occur with the general protection rating in the Protection Analysis function. In the event that the overall protection dimension shows greater values (more than 1000mm equivalent) this refers to primary modules (engine, cannon etc) where the tank crew and other lesser modules are not damaged.
T-62M-1 may display texture issues and glitches.

On the 13th of August, “Project X” I trophies will stop being dropped in battles and we have turned on the possibility of exchanging 4 trophies of the previous series (“Advancing Storm” I) to the “Project X” trophy in the workshop (available only on PC). The exchange will operate only during this weekend (11th-12th of August) and will be switched off on Monday, the 13th of August.

14.08.2018

PS4 and XBox One players are now able to purchase keys for the “Storm I” and “Project X” trophies or the trophies themselves for Golden Eagles using the in game item shop. Each trophy contains coupons for one of the following items: a unique camouflage, decal or vehicle.
Because of lack of the possibility for PS4 and XBox One players to receive the “Storm I” and “Project X” trophies in random battles in the past, so we enabled this option for a limited time (1 month). The trophies will be dropped within a certain probability and regularity in random battles in all game modes. The minimum requirements for obtaining the trophy are to have at least one vehicle of rank III in the crewed setup and gain 50% or more activity in a battle (except cooperative PvE “Assault” mode).
New sections in the workshop are available for PS4 and XBox One players: “Storm I trophy” and “Project X trophy” for the exchange of the coupons of these trophies.
Authors of user content included in the “Storm I” and “Project X” trophies will receive their percentage of any proceeds from the sale of the keys for the trophies for Golden Eagles in the in-game shop in GJN (Gaijin Coins).
