'''Ground Vehicle model, damage model, characteristic and weaponry changes:'''
 +
 +
* The following changes affect vehicles of ranks VI-VII:
 +
** HEAT-FS shell has been designated default for vehicles that previously had the APFS-DS shell as default (Except British ground vehicles - they still do not use HEAT shells)
 +
** The distribution of shell modifications has been changed as follows: if there is only one type of armour-piercing finned shell in the case of default HEAT shell, it will be located at the 3rd (III) level of researchable modifications. If the default HEAT shell has two types of the armour-piercing finned shells, the first one will be placed at the first (I) level and the second one at the 4th (IV) level of researchable modifications.

Latest revision as of 09:00, 6 June 2023

Update "Starfighters" (changelog) was introduced on 26 May 2020. This update is notable for the introduction of the Italian naval tree, release of the F-104 Starfighter into numerous trees (including as the first Italian supersonic aircraft), as well as being the first update to move away from the previous numbered naming system for major patches.

Msg-info.png Though the update numbering has been dropped in announcements, the game version is still present in-game to indicate the update as 1.99

"Regia Marina" (1.99.1.26)

Msg-info.png Update "Regia Marina", a key iterative update for "Update Starfighters", allowing all players who were not part of the Regia Marina, Italian Navy CBT, to play this stunning and almighty naval power in-game, boasting some of the most iconic and powerful ships in the world.

New vehicles

Naval Fleet

  • Italy — the naval tech tree is now open for research and purchase to all players.

Ground Vehicles

Britain
Japan
Italy

Changes to missions and locations

  • Enduring confrontation. The front line now reflects the shape of sectors (now it is drawn not with a curved line, but with rectangular lines along the borders of sectors).

  • Naval Enduring confrontation. A bug has been fixed when the base targeted for bombing, located in the same square as the port, did not disappear when capturing the port.
  • Naval Enduring confrontation. Disabling the respawn point in port is now possible only when the number of enemy vessels is greater than the friendly ones (only for ships and player-controlled aircraft which have landed either on the ground or at sea). A lone vessel can no longer block the respawn.
  • A bug with a user mission crash involving infantry has been fixed.
  • Roads have been corrected in the following locations: Ladoga, Kuban, Hurtgen Forest, Stalingrad, Mozdok, Moscow.
