Commanders!

The first Special Operations mission of a new series is now available with another piece of the Apocalypse season content coming soon – the Echoes of War Battle Path. Today, we’d like to offer you the opportunity to win the access to it in our newest contest.



As its name suggests, the goal is actually very simple – gather a full team of five players and beat the Plague Special Operation mission on as fast as you can. There will be two categories – one for Tier 7 vehicles and another for Tier 9 vehicles.

Here’s how you can participate:
  • Assemble a team of five players (you included) and form a platoon
  • Play the Plague Special Operation and record your time until November 30, 23:59 CET
  • Submit the result (along with a replay of your attempt) to the dedicated contest channel on Discord (make sure you read the detailed rules below)
There will be two winning teams in this event (one per category – Tier 7 and Tier 9). Each winning team will receive the access to the Echoes of War Battle Path and the Type 90 Tier 7 Premium MBT.

Please note:
  • Only one submission per team will be accepted
  • Team composition cannot change and are considered locked from the moment of the first submission
  • Any changes in composition of a locked team will lead to the affected submissions being disqualified
  • Individual players who are already locked in one team cannot participate in this contest as a part of another team, such an attempt will lead to the entire new team’s disqualification (when in doubt, team leaders are advised to make sure their members are not locked with another team already by checking the previous submissions)
  • Each team must elect its leader, who will be responsible for submitting any results (submissions from other team members will not be accepted)
  • Each submission must therefore include: Team Leader Name, Team Members, Result Screenshot, Result Replay (from any of the team’s members)
  • Should two or more teams achieve the same time, the earliest submission takes precedence
  • All submitted battles must take place between the publication of this article and November 30, 23:59 CET
  • The prizes may be delivered only upon the launch of the Battle Path
Good luck, commanders, and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

BM Oplot


The Oplot is a heavily upgraded T-84 Ukrainian Main Battle Tank, which is based on an older design called T-80UD. It is currently the best tank the Ukrainian military industry can offer. You can read more about its history in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the BM Oplot is a Tier 9 Premium Main Battle Tank with a playstyle similar to the T-80U. Power-wise, it’s roughly on par with the T-90MS of the same Tier, but it has a very unique ability. Its advanced Duplet armor consists of several ERA layers, making it able to negate more than one HEAT shell impact. It takes several precise hits aimed at the same location to break through it, making it a very resistant vehicle on the battlefield.






M-95 Degman


The M-95 Degman is an advanced Croatian prototype MBT, developed during the 1990s and 2000s. It is based on the previous Yugoslavian project, the Vihor MBT, which in turn has its roots in the improved T-72M series produced in former Yugoslavia. You can read more about its history in a dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the tank is relatively fast and fairly agile while carrying some potent firepower for its Tier. In fact, its owners can choose from two powerful guns:
  • 125mm 2A46 Russian-style smoothbore gun, known from many Russian MBTs
  • 120mm CTG NATO-style smoothbore gun that you know from the Challenger 1 Falcon MBT
It’s worth noting that the 120mm shells have higher penetration values and the gun can also fire Falarick ATGMs while the 125mm gun has higher damage per shot. Both guns will feature good handling as well as overall performance to offset the vehicle’s weakness, which is its mediocre armor. The Degman must rely on its mobility and firepower to survive, making it an ideal vehicle for aggressive, daring players.






Scorpion Kastet


This vehicle is basically a commercial modernization of the old Scorpion Light Tank by replacing its original turret with a new one of Ukrainian origin called Kastet. It was designed specifically with the Kingdom of Jordan in mind and was shown to general public in 2016. Unfortunately, it failed to gain any traction and it’s unlikely this vehicle will ever be mass produced. You can learn more about this vehicle in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Scorpion Kastet is a Tier 6 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle. It is one of the deadliest AFVs in the game thanks to the combination of blazing speed, amazing agility, powerful automatic cannon and advanced guided missiles. All these traits make this highly mobile, if somewhat fragile AFV the weapon of choice for many advanced players. who can use it to dance around their opponents, dealing one blow after another.






MT-LB S8


The MT-LB S8 (also called Strela-10 RSZO) was unveiled only recently as the means for Ukraine to combine two items they did not need by themselves in order to use them effectively during the Civil War. The first one, not quite useful to the Ukrainians by itself, is the Strela-10 self-propelled SAM – its deployment is quite limited due to the fact that the separatist forces do not have any air force. The second item is an aircraft or helicopter rocket pod that is used to fire 80mm S-8 unguided rockets. Together, they form an ad-hoc rocket launcher. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the MT-LB S8 is a unique Tier 6 Armored Fighting Vehicle. What makes it stand out? Its armament, of course. This AFV does not have a lot of armor, nor is it incredibly fast, but it can fire its two full rocket pods (each has 20 rockets) within 30 seconds or less. The rockets have HEAT-MP projectiles and are absolutely deadly against practically any target, but especially against those without composite armor. On the downside, the rockets are unguided and quite inaccurate. This vehicle is not for the faint of heart!






Pile of Gold


This Loot Crate contains copious amounts of Gold for you to win, now available with 20% discount!



This Loot Crate includes:
  • 250.000 Gold
  • 100.000 Gold
  • 50.000 Gold
  • 10.000 Gold
  • 5.000 Gold
  • 1.000 Gold
  • 500 Gold
  • 100 Gold




We hope that you will enjoy the offer and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

As you may already know, Armored Warfare is moving to another season this month, one which we call Apocalypse.



The Apocalypse season will be all about survival – the missions will pit you against other stragglers following the cataclysm at the end of the last Spirithaven Special Operation. Much like Spirithaven, the Apocalypse season will run for most of the year with Update 0.34 being only the initial part of it.

Here’s what you can look forward to:


Special Operation “Plague”


This release version contains a number of interesting features with the biggest one being the first of four planned Special Operations.



In 2044, a series of supervolcano eruptions nearly resulted in the extinction of man. Only shattered remnants of once proud civilizations now remain with most of the old world buried under the cold blanket of ash and cinder, as the survivors fight over the few scraps left. In the aftermath of the apocalypse, Ivo Rinaldi and a retired Russian officer by the name of Igor Kopylov, both having weathered the storm in one of Enigma's secret shelters, started a settlement. The tiny outpost is anything but safe though; raiders roam the land in search for their prey. Commandeering a salvaged Enigma warship, both men set out on a mission to capture vital resources in the Georgian city of Gori, recently devastated by an earthquake.



More Special Operations missions await you this year. We will be releasing then a few months apart in order to give you time to master each one and to complete even the most difficult achievement objectives, which there will be plenty of. You can read more about the mission in our dedicated article.


Optimizations


In this update, we are rolling out another set of performance improvements. While each of them is a small change on its own, together, they should help to make the game run smoother and look prettier. These include:
  • Improved particle effect rendering on minimal graphics settings
  • Improved the tank rendering speed on all graphics settings
  • Improved UI caching
  • Minimum settings effect optimization
  • Reviewed level of detail settings for various objects (object appearance now differs more depending on your graphics settings)
  • Improved rendering of grass and small stones
  • Optimized minimap refreshing
  • Improved shadow rendering distance for all graphics settings except for the minimum one

Further Season Plans


All of the above is, however, only just a portion of what the Apocalypse season will offer. A steady stream of content will be available throughout the season. Here’s a sample of what you can look forward to in the near future.

December:
  • Echoes of War Battle Path with exciting Russian vehicles, including the Shilka, Kurganets, Msta-S and the long-awaited Object 195
  • Breath of Winter countdown to Christmas with some amazing prizes
  • Artillery will return to Global Operations
  • Christmas and New Year celebrations with gifts, bonuses, prizes (Christmas garage and the special mode will return as always)
January and February:
  • Wheeled AI vehicles in PvE
  • New AI improvements
  • Plenty of events, contests and other celebrations
And that’s just us getting started. The Apocalypse season will simply be... earthshattering.

On the 24th of November 2020, starting from 8:00 CET (23rd of November, 11 PM PST), the server will not be available for 5 hours due to the application of Update 0.34.

Commanders!

The final vehicle of the upcoming Battle Path will be the Soviet Msta-S Self-Propelled Gun.



The Msta-S SPG was developed as a replacement to the older 2S3 Akatsiya. The goal was to match (or surpass) the newly developed NATO artillery pieces with long 155mm guns that were designed to offer enough range to keep Soviet infantry from actually reaching the front. The Soviets needed the same type of weapon in their arsenal.

Adapting a long 152mm gun for vehicle use turned out to be a long process. The general development started as early as in 1976 with several projects running parallel, but the actual MSTA-S project was opened in 1980 and it would take almost a decade for the vehicle to see service. The MSTA-S SPG is based on a heavily modified T-72 chassis and is armed with a long 152mm gun, allowing it to fire at extreme distances (especially when using modern ammunition). The production began in 1988 and is currently ongoing with a modernized variant rolling out for the Russian military.

More than 500 Msta-S SPGs are still in Russian service and dozens were exported to several other countries. It has seen some combat during the Second Chechen War and the War in Donbass. Even though the exact production numbers aren’t available, it is estimated that around 1000 Msta-S howitzers have been built to this day.



In Armored Warfare, the Msta-S will be a Tier 9 Premium SPG. Indeed – it will be the first vehicle of this class to be introduced in years. We’ve decided to add a new vehicle of this class partially because some of you have been asking for one, but also because we are planning to finally return SPGs to the Global Operations mode, making them useful in PvP as well as in PvE.

This change will happen at some point in the near future (not necessarily with the launch of Update 0.34 though) and will be permanent.

As for the Msta-S, it will be about what you’d expect. As is customary with SPGs, it will have poor mobility and practically no armor whatsoever with only a 7.62mm machinegun being available for close combat.



What it will have, however, is a long 152mm gun (no magazine, 8 seconds reload time) capable of firing two types of HE shells (apart from the usual White Phosphorus and Smoke ones, of course):
  • Standard shell (300 m/s) with high trajectory that will make it easier to fire at targets behind cover
  • Fast shell (600 m/s) with low trajectory that will make it easier to fire at moving targets (but not over obstacles), available via additional Battle Path progression
Otherwise, they both will have the same properties similar to other high-caliber and high-Tier HE shells:
  • 50mm penetration
  • 1200 points of damage per shot
The faster shell will also come with a special ability of nearly instant switch, so you’ll always have the option to immediately choose, which shell suits your purposes the best.



We hope that you will enjoy this Self-Propelled Gun as well as the entire Battle Path and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!
Armored Warfare - Silentstalker
Commanders!

One of the main features of Update 0.34 will be the new Echoes of War apocalypse-themed Battle Path and today we’d like to tell you more about it.



Mechanics-wise, the Echoes of War Battle Path will be similar to Enigma’s Legacy with the principles being roughly the same. Once you acquire access to the campaign (the price remains the same), you’ll be earning Battle Coins and spending them on Battle Path progress. Battle Coins will be earned either by just playing or by completing missions. Four mission sets along with repeatable daily Battle Coin Missions and Challenges will be available like the last time.

Completing all three mission sets will unlock the fourth, ultimate mission set. Once again, the campaign will feature several Premium vehicles available as a part of the campaign’s basic level progress. However, this is where things started to differ from the previous Battle Paths.

The prize vehicles obtainable via Battle Path levels will be:

As you can see, the initial vehicle will no longer be obtainable merely for unlocking the Battle Path, but on the bright side, the vehicles featured in this Battle Path are mostly high-Tier Premium ones, significantly increasing the total value of the prizes obtainable. To reflect that, the progression cost per level above Level 10 will increase slightly from 4.000 to 4.500 Battle Coins.

Another change compared to the previous one is that while each of these Battle Path vehicles do comes with a special apocalypse-themed skin called Vagabond, these will now be obtainable via standard level progression alongside the tanks instead of being locked behind various Missions. That way, they will become easily obtainable.



Let’s talk about the Mission Chains because those underwent a lot of changes as well. For one, like we mentioned above, Missions will no longer award skins. Instead, the top prize for each chain will be a special Battle Path camouflage called Biohazard (one environment per chain). As for the missions themselves:
  • We have removed the unpopular support-based and kill-based missions, leaving damage only
  • Missions no longer require Battle Path vehicles to participate in them
  • Each chain was reduced to 6 missions
  • Chains are now class-based (one requires Tier 3-10 MBTs, one requires Tier 3-10 AFVs or LTs and one requires Tier 3-10 TDs or SPGs)
  • The final, Elite chain consists of 5 missions, each dropping blueprints of the Kurganets-25 Tier 9 Premium TD
This vehicle brings us to the final and the most radical innovation of the Battle Path. In the earlier Battle Path iterations, we always had one vehicle reserved for Battle Path Loot Crates. Players had to buy these Loot Crates for Battle Coins and gradually assemble the vehicle.



This Battle Path, we are removing these Loot Crates altogether. Instead, we’ll have a brand new Battle Path section called Shop.



The Shop is pretty much exactly what it sounds like – a page where you can choose one of five items available and purchase them directly for Battle Coins. The items on offer are periodically renewed so every single offer set is available for a limited time only. Additionally, a manual re-roll will be available for 300 Battle Coins.



On the other hand, they do give you the opportunity to obtain items as:
  • Kurganets-25 parts
  • Credits
  • Boosters
  • Premium Time
  • Premium vehicles (including Tier 10 ones and those from the previous Battle Paths)
  • Commanders (including Ophelia Kitescu and Alisa Korhonen)
As well as bonus Battle Coins (which can then be used for rerolls). The Kurganets-25 TD can be assembled using the parts you purchase in the Shop.



The Workshop will also be making a comeback, allowing you to further improve your prize vehicles by completing Battle Path missions or Challenges. You can also use the Workshop to upgrade the older Last Patriot and Enigma's Legacy Battle Path vehicles.

Other than that, the mechanics will remain the same, as will the entry price. Apart from the abovementioned Premium vehicles, the Battle Path levels will contain other rewards such as Battle Coin boosters, decals, Gold, boosters and much more. Of particular note is the avatar that you can get early on, but it gradually changes its appearance based on your progression. The existing mechanics will be described in detail in the FAQ section upon the Battle Path’s launch.

We hope that you will enjoy this Battle Path that is due to launch at the beginning of December and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

Commanders!

Today we’ve prepared the following items for you:
  • Object 640 Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank
  • BMPT Mod.2000 Tier 8 Premium Tank Destroyer
  • Iron Crate (this time with Type 89)
Between November 19 and 26, 2020, the following items will be available:

Object 640

The Object 640 is one of the last Soviet era “super tank” monsters, designed to surpass anything the west could field on the battlefield. It featured extremely advanced armor, making it highly resistant to hits while keeping its weight low. The design was truly revolutionary for the late 1980s, but, like with many other Soviet projects of the era, it was discontinued due to the lack of funding. You can learn more about it in a dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Object 640 “Black Eagle” is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank. It is a fast, agile and well-protected vehicle that plays in a typical Russian-style MBT fashion – ideal for players who want to take things up close and personal. This version of the tank does not feature any camouflage and is ready to be customized as you see fit.

The Object 640 Tier 10 Premium MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.



BMPT Mod.2000

The BMPT Mod.2000 is, as its name suggests, one of the earliest models of the famous Russian BMPT series, also known under the name “Terminator.” The word BMPT stands for “tank support combat vehicle,” which is exactly what the machine was designed for – to accompany tanks to battle and support them (predominantly in urban environments) against enemy infantry. It consists of a MBT-class hull (a modified T-90 one) and an unmanned turret, armed with a single 30mm automatic cannon and a single four-tube launcher for Kornet-E ATGMs. This particular model was shown to general public in 2000, but didn’t get much attention. It was overhauled almost immediately to the iconic twin-autocannon configuration that’s being used to this day.



In Armored Warfare, the BMPT Mod.2000 is a Tier 8 Premium Tank Destroyer. It’s a heavy duty vehicle with its hull offering excellent protection for its class. The turret, albeit lightly armored, only takes reduced damage. Even though this vehicle only features a single 30mm autocannon (unlike all the other BMPT series vehicles in the game), this is compensated by the presence of powerful ATGMs that make the BMPT Mod.2000 an extremely potent tank killer.

This vehicle is now available on MY.GAMES Market directly in three different variants:
  • BMPT Mod.2000 without any camouflage
  • BMPT Mod.2000 Reaper with a scary black grim-reaper-themed camouflage
  • BMPT Mod.2000 Sapphire with its hull covered in blue flames
Please note that the latter two camouflages are permanent and cannot be removed from the vehicle if you purchase them.



Iron Crate

We’ve prepared for you an additional offer this week. Between November 19 and November 26, 2020, the Iron Crate will be available on MY.GAMES Market with 50% discount!



The mechanics are very simple. This crate allows you to win one of the vehicles listed in its description (or its value in Gold if you have it already). The crate contains some very rare vehicles (with some new ones!), including the Type 89 AFV.

For a full list, please visit the MY.GAMES Market Iron Crate page.



We hope that you will enjoy the offer and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!
