This weekend is going to be jam packed with two essential tests designed to help pave the way for a better WWII Online experience. The first (Saturday, February 5th @ 5PM PST) which will be dedicated to our continued exploration for a US East Coast server to help bridge North America & European connections, and the second (Sunday, February 6th @ 11AM PST) will be focused on WWII Online: Chokepoint (Hero Builder or approved beta tester access required). Please continue reading the article for important details on both, including how you can apply to become a Chokepoint tester.
Where's the Roadmap / upcoming updates? For your awareness, CRS has been heavily engaged in planning this year's roadmap and fine tuning all of the pieces, quite a bit more heavily than we normally do to make sure we have solid estimates and clear expectations with you. Very soon we will be publishing our official roadmap (near the end of this month) and it will contain important details of what's to come this year. It will focus on WWII Online, WWII Online 2.0 and of course WWII Online: Chokepoint plans. And for the first time ever, WWII Online will be reaching out to you - our valued players - to help us add weight and priority to which items are most pressing to get done first from your perspective.
SATURDAY TEST - EAST COAST SERVER
We're doing another test on our US East Coast based server, this time with even more enhanced monitoring tools established, we will be requesting maximum support to be present and press into "Rotterdam" to enable Air-Land-Sea combat. We may be doing an all-air test too, so be sure to have your joystick at the ready and configured.
- Start Time: 5PM Pacific Time (7PM Central, 8PM Eastern)
- Estimated length: 2-3 hours
- Everyone should be on Discord at https://discord.gg/wwiionline
- Campaign server will be frozen to preserve its state - and reopened after testing
- Simply login and play / follow instructions provided by admins
PC users will see a new US East Coast server in your PlayGate launcher (the Play Online shortcut) and Mac users will need to download a special launcher here (launch this, then use the Campaign server to login).
SUNDAY TEST - WWII ONLINE: CHOKEPOINT
For all of you who are Chokepoint testers already - or who are WWII Online Hero Builders - come join us for a play test which includes several new features and fixes! We're actively working to improve the game and recently we've seen some pretty big art upgrades and polish take place. Chokepoint represents the future of WWII Online as it relates to Unreal Engine development and content validation.
We're requesting maximum attendance for this one, please make time to be there!
- Start Time: 11AM Pacific (1PM Central, 2PM Eastern)
- Estimated Time of Play: 60-90 minutes
- This event will be live streamed
