Commanders,
The second Common Test of Update 1.10.1 is now available. Make sure and check out the upcoming changes and new features planned for the next patch!
Battle Communication Tweaks
We're reviewing your feedback on the revamped in-battle communication system. We've already found several areas to adjust and improve for this feature. Join CT2 to experience the following tweaks for the in-battle communication system:
- Players in destroyed allied vehicles can't use in-battle communication for all types of battles, except team battles (such as Clan Wars, Tournaments, and Stronghold).
- Added a special setting to disable markers on the map. When disabled, the markers for "attention to," "going to," "firing at" (SPGs), and "pre-battle markers" are not displayed. They are still displayed on the minimap and remain interactive.
- Reduced the size of markers on the minimap.
- Increased the height of markers on the map several times to make them more noticeable at long distances, behind buildings, and among vehicles.
