Hello commander,
Today, some updates on
Milestone DAVOUT’s progress, what will come after it, and an upcoming patch.
Update on Milestone DAVOUT
We had planned to release
DAVOUT this week, but we rather delay it a bit because we are still missing a few models. And especially an iconic one: the
Leopard 2. Hence why you haven’t seen it in screenshots before, nor will in this DevBlog.
But we’re almost there: most units are done, with their German paintjob, their picture, … as you can see below:
The
NVA isn’t forgotten, of course:
What’s next?
Milestone DAVOUT might be delayed a bit, it doesn’t mean we aren’t trying to stick to our 2-milestone per month schedule. While our 3D artists are working hard to deliver the missing
5. Panzerdivision’s models, some of us have already started working on the next step. Step
s even.
Here is our planned scheduled for the weeks and months to come:
The next milestone after DAVOUT will be
Milestone MURAT, still focusing on German divisions … and some friends. If you don’t know about Napoléon's dashing cavalry commander already, you’ve got only a few weeks left to address that unforgivable shortcoming. ;)
DAVOUT was a hard nut to crack, for it meant modeling (almost) ALL the
Bundeswehr’s units in two weeks.
MURAT will be different, for it will make use of many of the same equipment, which should give our overworked 3D artists a respite. As planned, we will use this opportunity to introduce towed & crew-served weapons, not only for the new divisions, but for all of them.
Divisions from release and
NEY &
DAVOUT milestones will also see their ranks beefed up with mortars, field guns, anti-tank or anti-aircraft guns, … Missile weapon systems might take a bit longer though.
Upcoming patch
But much closer from us, we have been working on a major patch, currently being tested by the strike team … and which should be delivered to you very soon™.
Among other things, it fixes dozens of bugs reported by the community, but also brings the following changes & features:
- 3 new maps … which we'll showcase to you soon.
- Time limit options in the multiplayer lobby.
- Increased infantry HEAT weapon’s efficiency (similar to WRD’s calculation).
- ECM rework.
- Decreased mortars’ RoF.
- Repricing of transport helicopters.
- MMG & HMG can now engage helicopters.
- New Soviet SEAD plane.
- …
See you on the battlefield!
That’s all for this week!
