Testing the "Off-road Patrol" update

Call sign orders yes (although I use them to mark people with special guns like Solothurn)

Howevs upgrade change orders are useful at least as long as changing upgrades is not free.

For me most useless are EXP bonuses as every man is pretty much maximised, weapons too.

Actual Battlescore multipliers would be great.

How long do we have to wait for an event? They could at least launch an event for some weapon.

Can you please do the same to the haystacks? And make them burn up like the tree foliage?

I agree that squad change orders are useful, but they’re way more prevalent as rewards than they are needed. I’ve only been playing since March and I have 42 of them.

There are 6 in the current BP.

I think 4 is more than enough, and the other prize of 2 should be replaced with 50 gold on the free tier. Personally i have the paid BP, but as it stands a f2p player would need to fully complete the BP (dedication, since you can only do 3 tasks per day, not 9) 5 months in a row in order to afford ONE vehicle camo, in a game that already doesn’t give you theatre-specific camo for vehicles by default (insert thomas the tank engine meme here).

They are just massively stingy with the gold overall, especially grating since the gold crates have come out.

And before the comments of “everyone just wants everything for free!” This would literally just lower the threshold to buy ONE CAMO from 5 months to 3 months. It would still take a f2p player grinding out the BP basically every day (i think minimum 24/30 days when you include the task and rank rewards) almost 2 years just to camo 1 german vehicle appropriately for each theatre. It would take multiple lifetimes to get relevant camo for 1 of each vehicle type across all 4 nations. I get that they need to make money, but giving people a little something will actually get them into the economy and make them more likely to buy. That’s obviously the premise of giving 50g in the free bp, but 50g isn’t enough to do anything with, and certainly not a worthy reward for playing minimum 24 days per month. /Rant

I was wondering how Tunisia fights were in test server, anyone confirm if Kahif map is both BR4 & 5 as patch notes said Tunisia now High BR, hopefully not BR5.

Anyone able to comment on New Tunisia matches and if Br5 also in matches?

I havent played it on the test server, but on the forum it was confirmed to be BR 4 only.
And only the map Kahif cave village

Unhinged take: callsign orders should be exchangable for missed event content, for example 100 orders per event vehicle.

And also no informations about fixing the server stability? Because they’ve been failing more frequently for some time now

I suspect that they will announce another testing for the next weekend, in which they will show us the BR and balancing changes.

does that usually happen?

Yes we need a bunch really (and some tech tree cleanup).

It does sometimes happen with major changes… which they might be doing, if they’re trying to fast roll-out larger squad sizes for the new Driver squads (which was forwarded last Tuesday). Last time they did something like this was when they removed the PPSh S from the tech tree and replaced it with a 20-round AVT.

If increasing Driver squad sizes is what they’re doing, they’ll definately want another round of Beta tests to have them tried out, to see how they preform in game with and against real players, and to get more feedback from that.

I hope so

While using the Japanese Jeep “Type 95 Kurogane”, you cannot see anything directly ahead because your hand completely blocks the view. This puts you at a serious disadvantage compared to the Jeeps of other nations.

Type 95 Kurogane


Kübelwagen 82

Willys M1919A4

GAZ-64 DS-39

Fron my point of view the japanese jeep is penalized not only with a significantly worse machine gun (compared to the other nations), but also with far poorer visibility, making it impossible to spot enemies directly ahead.
