Changes to Squadron Battles

Dear players!



Today, May the 30th, Squadron battles ratings will be reset. This is due to the fact that a few months have passed since the introduction of the functionality, it has changed significantly, from today it will work in a new format .



Firstly, Squadron combat will now involve not only aircraft, but also ground vehicles. In the modes of realistic and simulator combat with no respawns, so commanders will have to carefully and strategically choose the selection of equipment before the fight .



Secondly, only vehicles of rank III and IV may be used in squadron battles. We believe that , on the one hand, this will provide the necessary variety of techniques, and on the other - will help maintain game balance.



Squadron battles will only be available at certain times:

00:01 to 04:00 GMT and from 15:00 to 19:00 GMT on Weekdays (Mon - Fri)

00:01 to 06:00 GMT and from 15:00 to 21:00 GMT at Weekends (Sat - Sun)



Before the ratings were reset, we have given the highest rated squadron rewards, nearly 100k Golden Eagles have been shared out.



Our future plans are to further improve Squadron combat, depending on your feedback. So stay tuned!
