Welcome Back Soldier: 21st Anniversary (6/1-6/15)

User Rating: 5 / 5

As WWII Online approaches its 21st anniversary (June 6th 2022) we wanted to let you know that we are opening the doors to all veteran players to return - via our "Welcome Back Soldier" program - from June 1st through the 15th. Everyone will receive full premium access AND all free players, whether they've registered at WWIIOnline.com or registered on Steam will also get full access. We also have a really awesome patch update coming (1.36.17.0) which includes all of the Paratrooper items we discussed in "A New Dawn for Paratroopers" plus a lot of other good stuff like three 2022 roadmap deliveries (notes to follow). With large scale operations coming back to WWII Online and a renewed High Command system, an original price point and active development, this is a fantastic time for players to return and support the WWII Online community. Be sure to get on our discord to follow events and stay connected with the community at: https://discord.gg/wwiionline.

Please spread the word and mobilize the troops, we're using the all-new US East Coast server which has had a 62% positive boost on player ping's internationally. And remember: Everything else, is just a game! The WWII Online community is a one of a kind place, unlike any other. We look forward to seeing all of you vets returning!

Welcome Back Soldier from June 1st - June 15th

New Server Exploration & Operation Elephant

User Rating: 5 / 5

For awhile we have been considering ideas on how to improve network communication between North America & Europe, the bulk of where our worldwide customer base is located. Today we're ecstatic to report that the next step in this exploration which will be in the form of an important live stress test coming this Saturday January 15th at 11AM Pacific Time (1PM Central, 2PM Eastern, 7PM GMT) on an all-new WWII Online server with uber specs located in New Jersey, USA. This marks our first step towards going to the cloud and it also acts as a perfect middle ground between the two continents and our in-house European testers have reported a rather significant drop in ping time. If this all works then we should see less lag reports and player deaths should synchronize more cleanly and quickly.

Remember, this is all exploration and the Oregon based servers will remain in position. Please continue reading for event details provided by TEX64 (Community Manager) and mark your calendars to attend, this is really important!

Original Pricing Unlocked - $9.99/mo

User Rating: 5 / 5

Happy July 1st everyone! As we announced in our, "The Future of WWII Online", article/videos (which places all the plans on the table) - we have now completed all elements of our transition with consolidating our subscriptions (removing Starter, All Infantry, All Air Force and All Ground Forces - all of which are being converted over to premium as we speak) and we're back to having a "Premium" subscription only. With that, we've unlocked the games original pricing of $9.99/mo (USD), this is the first time it has been at this retail rate in over 15 years. As we said in our original announcement unveiling this plan, this is a big risk for us to take and in order for us to keep it at this rate, we're going to need existing players to hold onto their current subscriptions AND see a growth with this new rate (free players or returning players subscribing). We've done it to meet customer requests and remove as much entry barrier as possible, we can't go any lower than this. We do reserve the right to roll this back if required, as we have briefed everyone upfront.

This isn't just about keeping the lights on, or focusing strictly on what content and features you get... it's much bigger than that. It's about the FUTURE of the game. I want you all to think of this like an internal funding campaign ~ because it really is. Help us innovate and bring the next 20 years of WWII Online to the masses. We need 100% of your support - right now. Spread the word about this exciting and big news and help us get everyone involved, let's go!
