We had quite a weekend last Saturday with Operation Spring Boot and then our Rat Chat which was held on Sunday. The video in this article for the RAT Chat in its entirety. Campaign #172 rolls along at the 40 day mark. The map has gone back and forth with the Axis making the latest push. We have had so many great combined arms battles taking place this map! It's been amazing.

We've implemented our new billing system and we're now able to accept online payments via Debit/Credit card, and continuing with PayPal. All PayPal payments will now go into a recurring payment plan and the old way of "manual payments," has been officially changed, for the better. Everyone will need to update their billing method, you should do this right away, at https://account.wwiionline.com/account/pay. Once you've updated your payment method and payment has been sent, let us know so we can configure your account accordingly (submit new tickets here). This is still a work in progress but is now functional and ready to work.

Operation "Mental Floss" will be a live server event for ALL players! Welcome Back Soldier remains activated (veteran accounts reinstated until 3/24) and we're calling for maximum server participation this Sunday at 11AM (Pacific Time, GMT -8), which is 1PM Central and 2PM Eastern. The objective of this Operation is to provide an increased level of cohesion and participation, allowing High Command officers on both sides to rally troops and conduct large battles in WWII Online.
We expect a very large turn out from now until this weekend. As of this article we are seeing 4 AO's in the Campaign server, which marks a significant boost in server population and participation. Meanwhile please let all of our veterans know that they can get in until the 24th. SEE YOU AT THE EVENT!

Good news everyone, our Quality Assurance and Dev team(s) found what was going on causing a crash for the Axis players during the tail end of Campaign 167. Long story short, this bug didn't show itself until the Axis pushed so far west that the server had an issue with the number of German garrisons being accounted for. This didn't happen for the Allies in reverse because the Allies have at any time 2, and upwards to 3, country owners, so the total ownership was distributed in a manner not achievable by the Axis due to the single country ownership for their side. CAMPAIGN 168 BEGINS TOMORROW, WEDNESDAY 8/28/19, AT 7:00PM SERVER TIME. We now know a work around to prevent this issue by hand, and our devs are working on a hot fix solution. The Campaign will be fully functional meanwhile. All soldiers requested to report back to their Squad affiliated side to have a balanced, healthy Campaign experience. WWII Online is at its best when we have balanced game play and hardcore dedicated participation from everyone, no matter the Campaign's conditions for your side. Work together and communicate.
I'd like to thank you all for your patience and grace while our team at CRS worked out a very difficult bug. We try to keep the Campaign experience as fluid as possible and we were hesitant to launch without having things totally certain, as we know how important it is for you. You guys as a community did awesome, and we look forward to you having a great 168th Campaign here at WWII Online!
Salute!
XOOM - President of CRS
