Update 1.10.1: Common Test 2 Is Here!

Commanders!

The second Common Test of Update 1.10.1 is now available. Make sure to check out the upcoming changes and new features that are planned for the next patch.

Battle Communication Tweaks

We’re also reviewing your feedback on the revamped in-battle communication system. We’ve already detected several areas for improvement and adjusted a number of aspects of this feature. Join the Common Test to experience the following tweaks for the in-battle communication system: 

  • Players in destroyed allied vehicles won't be able to use in-battle communication for all types of battles, except for team battles (Clan Wars, tournaments, Stronghold, etc.).
  • A special setting to disable markers on the map has been added. When disabled, the markers for "attention to", "going to", "firing at" (SPGs), and "pre-battle markers" are not displayed. They are still displayed on the minimap and remain interactive.
  • The size of markers on the minimap has been reduced.
  • The height of markers on the map has been increased several times to make them more noticeable at long distances, behind buildings, and among vehicles.

We will continue to make adjustments, fix issues, and change things based on your feedback. So, give them a try, test the new features and continue to let us know what you think in the forum.
