• PPO - Corrected issues while placed/clipping on uneven terrain/berms
• AWS - All planes will only trigger AWS when:

  • over 10 km away from any friendly towns (off map and ocean areas included)
  • over enemy territory
• Satchel clipping into stationary vehicles has been corrected

Changes to Free Play accounts

A series of changes are in progress to create a better on-boarding experience for new users joining WWII Online and shaping an appropriate set of expectations for what our game service is all about. As of today, perpetual Free Play access will no longer be offered and has been replaced with a 30 day free trial account which gives you all infantry and a truck. We have 5 subscription options available and we will no longer be selling downloadable content. Continue reading this article to receive full details and an explanation for why CRS has made these necessary changes to our game service experience.
