Update 9.22: Common Test

Main Changes:

Improvements to the Matchmaker

• The improvements to the matchmaker will ensure more even distribution among the battle types enabled by players (Standard Battle, Attack/Defense, Encounter Battle, Grand Battle). The battle type selector will consider the history of the player's previous battles. The Grand Battles will not come in a succession.

Improvements to the Vehicle Customization

• The lower panel of the customization interface will contain the Applied sign for elements that are applied to the vehicle.
• Increased the clickable spots for the Emblems and Inscriptions.

Changes to the Ranked Battles

Changes in the new season:

• Now a season will last 21 days and is not divided into stages
• Increased the number of ranks from 5 to 15
• Reworked the conditions of earning chevrons:
  • The top 10 players on the winning team and the top player on the losing team will receive 1 chevron
  • The top 3 players on the winning team will receive 1 additional chevron
  • Players who took places 11-15 on the winning team and places 2-5 on the losing team will retain a chevron
  • Players who took places 6-15 on the losing team will lose a chevron
• Added new functionality: rank shield. Some ranks will be "shielded". The shield will have a particular number of durability points.
• Reworked the interface of the main screen in the Ranked Battles for proper display of information about 15 ranks
• Reworked the interface of the rewards for the ranks and season. It can be entered from the main screen and includes:
  • Information about the rewards for each rank
  • Information about the rewards for the season
• Changed the art of the vehicle ranks: they were replaced with the rank points. The principle of earning rank points remained unchanged.
• Removed the display of the vehicle ranks from the vehicle panel; the vehicle ranks were replaced with rank points in the vehicle statistics.
• Reworked the progress interface of vehicle ranks: upon reaching the maximum rank players will be able to see the number of the earned rank points in the Garage.

Improvements to the Stronghold Mode

• In Skirmishes and Advances, the battle room commander can select a player who will use the Combat Reserves (Airstrike and Artillery Strike); it can be any player of the detachment, including the legionnaires. The player becomes the Forward Observer and uses the reserves in battle.
