  • New Battlefield –Ā Players can learn the lay of the land in a new African-inspired mapā€”Mirage, featuring a stunning ocean view. Tankers can also discover updated lighting and design elements for Lost Temple.
  • Bonuses for Clan Soldiers – along with Vā€“VII Supply levels, clan tankers will find new bonuses: extended discounts for consumables, the chance to purchase slots for credits, and low prices for vehicles up to Tier VII.
  • Balance Tweaks – tier II tanks have changed their dispersion parameters during and after shots, and also when the gun is damaged.
  • Other Improvements – the appearance of the IS-7, Object-140, Š¢29, and Type 59 has been reworked. Tanks begin the match in different locations on Desert Sands. Copperfield has been removed from high-tier battles.

The newĀ African-inspired map does indeed come with a beautiful ocean view, with many players enjoying it so far. The new bonuses along with the balance tweaks are also welcome improvements.

Another small but much-needed improvement is how the tanks now begin every match in different locations on Desert Sands. In addition, the minified icon now shows a different thumbnail, as well.
