Community members and friends, we have a game update ready to go. Soon after the last version updates, some bug reports began to come in, and these have all been investigated. Today, we will start the open beta to fix those errors. You can join the open beta for the next 3 days.
If, after that, we have confirmation about these fixes, the update will go live.

New feature

A brand new feature is the display of armor value (thickness of volume) when the user's cursor is on a vehicle. It does not include slope or any other relative parameter; it only includes the thickness of the armor itself at that spot (cursor position). It works on all vehicles and has been added to all game modes (MP, SP, Conquest, and editor).


This is how the new feature looks on- screen.

Crashes

We have fixed some crashes that were reported, with numerous potentially problematic situations. You can see these in detail at the top of the list in the change log.

Conquest

We have fixed several glitches that relate to warnings about minefields and repairing, while also correcting some cosmetic details on DCG maps. Details for this can also be found in the change log.

Single Player

We have also done more work on existing maps and missions. Several bug fixes and improvements were introduced to these single-player missions:

• Hedgerow Hell
• The Waal Bridge
• Through Ice and Fire
• Operation Luttich
• Bloodshed at Seelow Heights
• The Citadel
• Closing the Pocket
• Tutorial 5: Trial by Fire
• Day of Days
• Hold Fast!
• Carpathian Turmoil

There will be many other minor fixes and tweaks, mostly QoL and cosmetic issues, such as the “ammo cook-off not showing fire effects”. If you want to know every detail of the many changes in this version of the game, please check the change log.

To join the beta, you only need to switch your game to the beta version. Later, when the beta becomes the live version, you don’t need to do anything at all to reverse the process.
If you want to participate, go to your Steam library, right-click on the game, select properties - betas - open beta. You can switch back to the current version at any time, using the same process.
