Commanders!

The Apocalypse season concludes with the fourth and final major content pack, Update 0.37 “Seal of Frost”

 

 

Here’s what you can look forward to right now:

 

SPECIAL OPERATION “DEATH”

 

The fourth and final mission of the Apocalypse Special Operation awaits you in this update.

scr1

The mission of the Apocalypse arc takes place in Batumi, a city that froze over following the supervolcano explosion, which took place at the end of the Spirithaven arc. In it, Igor Kopylov and Ivo Rinaldi encounter another person from Rinaldi’s dark past.

scr2

In this mission, your squad will be separated into two teams that have to cooperate with each other to survive. Coordination is the key to success, making this mission easy to learn but difficult to master. As usual, this mission comes with its own set of new achievements and rewards.

scr3

As an additional feature, any player who completed at least one Apocalypse Special Operation (that is, Plague, War and Famine) in the past will have immediate access to the “Death” Special Operation via a new button in the Garage UI.

 

NEW CONTRACT

 

Update 0.37 “Seal of Frost” is also bringing a new Contract with a special new reward – the Argentinian TAM 2IP Tier 7 Premium Light Tank replacing the T-90A Burlak.

scrz1

This Light Tank will come with a brand-new special ability called Laser Lock, significantly increasing your accuracy over a short period of time. On the downside, activating this ability will make the TAM 2IP illuminate its target with a laser visible to all players on the battlefield even if you aren’t spotted. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.

scrz2

However, please note that the new contract will not be available upon delay. For the sake of quality, we have decided to prolong the Burlak contract for a few more days to ensure the vehicle will reach you properly tested and balanced as well as to give you some more time to finish your older contract. The TAM 2IP contract will launch after September 30, 2021.

  • More Storyline Campaign missions (learn more)

Patchnotes:

Gameplay Mechanics

 

General Changes

  • Added the option to view skins on vehicles that aren't purchased yet (this can be done via a context menu button)
  • Reload time bonuses now properly influence the reload time between shell types (for vehicles that do not have the instant shell type switch feature available)
  • Changed the top-down ATGM mechanics so that their launches result in less no-damage results (they become more reliable)

 

Vehicles

 

Challenger Series

We have adjusted the side armor of the Challenger series again, this time reducing to a half of the buffed value. During the last round of buffs, we might have overdone it a bit, making the Challenger flanks completely impervious to incoming ATGM fire. This is not the intended state. Instead, the flanks should be penetrable by ATGMs of the same Tier when fired at without any angling and that's how it's going to be with the abovementioned change in place.

General Changes

  • Improved the appearance of all wheels of wheeled vehicles in the game
  • Fixed a number of small model issues

Abrams AGDS

  • Increased the ATGMs carried from 24 to 36

BM Oplot

  • Fixed this vehicle's collision model (the issue that allows other vehicles to drive under it, lifting it in the air)

Ramka-99, BMPT Mod.2017, BMPT Mod.2000

  • Fixed the cage armor areas to work correctly as cage armor

BMPT-72 Hades

  • Added the Supercharged Soft-Kill APS ability to match that of the progression BMPT-72

  • Improved the overall visual quality of this vehicle's model, including its textures
  • Fixed a number of small visual issues
  • Fixed the turret's collision model so that it no longer interferes with environmental objects
  • Adjusted the decal positions so that it no longer interferes with some skins

M1A2

  • Returned the fourth unlockable Reputation module to this vehicle's Upgrade section

M48 GAU-8

  • Improved the overall visual quality of this vehicle's model, including its textures

M60A3

PLZ-05

  • The alternative cannon now has a machinegun available with it

RST-V Shadow

  • Desert Crossing: Fixed this map's lighting (including the sandstorm phase)

In this Update, we are rolling out a new Special Operation called Death, along with several achievements, including:

  • Death
  • Frozen Vehicles
  • Frozen Madness
  • Guardian Angel
  • Battering Ram
  • Class-specific achievements as usual

You can read more about this Special Operation in our dedicated article. Additionally, we've changed the Garage look to meet the new Special Operation. Please note that we've also put a new mechanic in place – if you played any of the previous three "Apocalypse" Special Operation missions (Plague, War and Famine), you can skip to "Death" immediately using a new button.

General Changes

  • Fixed an issue where the intended amount of AI vehicles wouldn't sometimes spawn

Issues and Corrections

  • Fixed an issue where player vehicles would disappear and appear again during Special Operations countdown
  • Fixed an issue with the broken collision model of some objects on various maps (for example the Zubr landing craft in the last mission of the Caribbean Crisis Special Operation)
  • Fixed an issue where vehicles could show an incorrect Mastery Flag
  • Fixed an issue where your crew sometimes wouldn't inform you if your APS got destroyed or repaired
  • Fixed the low-res texture of the city gate on the Garage and on the Famine map
  • Fixed the appearance of rain on water on some maps
  • Fixed some smaller issues with Sniper's animations
  • Fixed a number of small visual issues
  • Fixed several issues causing the game to crash

Notes got changed or news replaced as a whole, previously said the new contract started early, but it got fixed and "not to worry all progress was saved".
Well, it was not. Old contract progress achievement stayed at 135/150 and does no longer progress, the new contract achievement is at 15/150 and counting.

Where are you getting this 150 contract points from? The contracts usually require a LOT more points than 150 to be completed, the previous ones took 500.

He is referring to the next set of contract missions achievements, which got released prematurely, and just like the current set the rewards are 4 decals and a camouflage pattern.

Correct! The progress on the achievement was fixed with the last patch. Some good news.
