Game mechanics
New opportunities for light vehicles
- “Active scouting”. In order to scout the environment in Arcade mode just select a target and push the “Scout” button (may be found in the settings). After that, an enemy marker will become visible for all your teammates for 30 seconds. In Realistic mode, you will have to use binoculars or sight (sniper) view. Once in this view put your crosshairs on an enemy vehicle and press the “Scout” button. After that, a marker will appear over the enemy vehicle and will be updated for 30 seconds.
- If you are playing a heavy tank for example – select the “Repairing!” short message – any allies who are driving light vehicles may assist you even if they are not members of your squad.
Additional modifications for light vehicles II-VI rank:
- Airstrike – in Arcade this will permit the scout to join any air battle started by your teammates. This will not be limited to a fighter – you will be able to use an attacker or a bomber even though your team has already begun the battle. Your opponent will have an opportunity to add an additional fighter though. In Realistic mode, this modification will additionally reduce SP requirements to use aircraft in combined battles
- Improved optical sights will increase the spotting distance by 30% in all modes.
