Continuing with last week's discussion (which featured the Modular PPO Trench System), I'd like to put some direct focus on the upcoming Combat Engineer class and what to expect. Today we're going to break down the load outs of both the Engineer and Combat Engineer, and the strategy as to why we're splitting them into two classes. We also have a short mention today of some high priority items that are in progress, like the 64-bit client, packet transmissions and of course what new fixes we've employed to smooth out our new billing system.

In case you missed the Rat Chat, we unveiled the current progress of the "Mission Leader Waypoints" update which helps mission leader better guide users of all skill level more efficiently in WWII Online. This is still in development but is approaching release, and is one of our Dev Roadmap items we outlined. Continue reading this article to see the pictures, and you can also get involved with our Mission Leader Tools - Forum Discussions to help contribute ideas so we can come up with even more efficient tools.

To kick off the New Year's first, "Developer Update," we're pleased to announce that CRS has been quietly working on a new Modular PPO (player placed object) Trench System, that we think you're going to love! Engineers will be able to select from a variety of connect-able trench pieces to place down on the terrain, and then connect them together based on what the conditions need. Today, we have some pictures for you to review, an early demonstration video, and some commentary in terms of the design implementation. Buckle-up for an awesome update!

Not long ago XOOM asked the Production team to take in players feedback about key towns where a difference could be made by changing the environment. Today I'd like to share the work that has gone into Verdun, a key strategic point in the south. Everyone has a war story from fighting in Verdun in WWIIOL, and we're pretty sure these changes coming are going to take that further. Continue reading to not only read some of the changes, but see them in their current status as we're developing and preparing to roll them into the game. In a word, the changes are going to be, "Big." Please leave your feedback, we'd love to hear what you think.
