Balance changes for vehicles, Combat Abilities, and functionalities.

New mechanics have been added and the existing mechanics have been changed:

A timer for the Dangerous Zone (yellow) has been added and is displayed when the player is inside.
The progression can now be fulfilled not only by completing daily missions but also based on positions in battle results.
The loot dropped by defeated Marauders is now more valuable.
The chance of receiving Combat Abilities from Supplies has been changed: the longer the battle lasts, the higher the chance.
Now, by collecting Spoils of War (red loot), players will get more XP. If the player's Combat Abilities are on cooldown at that time, this cooldown will be significantly reduced.
Now players will get less XP for upgrading their vehicle when dealing damage.
The upgrade tier is now displayed above the vehicles. This feature can be enabled/disabled in the game settings.
If a player leaves the battle before their vehicle is destroyed, they will not receive any economic rewards.

Vehicle Rebalance:

The Huragan and the Bái Láng are now faster, with thicker armor and more powerful guns and Combat Abilities.
The Harbinger has more HP and improved guns.
Heavy tanks (the Walküre, the Varyag, and the Beowulf) have received an armor nerf: the chance of penetrating them is now higher.
The Raven has less armor and less dangerous guns.
