Over the last five days since the release of the Mid Season Update we've been working hard to fix any and all small issues we've encountered on the way. Whilst doing so our community have been testing Invasion in our Special Event and the response has been fantastic. Using your critical feedback we can take finalise changes to Invasion making it a map we'll no doubt see in the competitive and casual map pools sooner, rather than later! For all those that have played we would just like to say thank you. But that's not all...
Unranked Wartide
Making its return to the Battalion 1944 forefront comes Unranked Wartide. For those not in the know, Wartide is Battalion 1944's 5v5 competitive game mode - two teams face off in a 24 round showdown of attack and defence. Destroy the Axis objectives as the Allied team, whilst both factions try to outwit and outmanoeuvre each other in a game of skill and momentum. 13 rounds will take the map, baring in mind that with every round comes one life, one chance to make that game saving play, one opportunity that could make or break your teams progress.
Unranked Wartide will act as the bridging gap between our casual and competitive experience for those looking to try their hand at something different without the pressure of an ELO driven environment. Integrating this is an important choice for us and now we've various quality of life issues addressed we're glad to bring it into its own playlist!
