Dear players,
This week's patch brings you balancing changes following discussions from the community, map changes, and updates to the mobile client.
The aircraft carrier is receiving an overall buff to capacity and anti-air capability. As the crown jewel of any fleet, we want it to feel just as imposing as its real-life counterpart. With the ability to launch up to three wings per carrier, the threat of a naval invasion in late game should be even more daunting.
We’ve reduced anti-ship damage of the helicopter gunship and the attack helicopter, shifting that capability more toward the AWS.
The Early Access mobile client received user interface and experience changes - refining the overall experience when playing the game we’ve all come to know and love.
