[previewyoutube=-CrLMNxhqqM;full][/previewyoutube] Commanders, its time to launch an offensive on Rzhev! We're introducing a new campaign on the outskirts of the Soviet capital, when German forces were still strong, and the Red Army's counter-offensive was just gaining momentum. Both sides spared no effort, earning this battle the nickname "meat grinder".
The Invasion of Normandy and the Pacific War campaigns have also been expanded with two new missions: "Ver-sur-Mer North (Invasion)" and "Alligator Creek (Assault)." Thanks to the updated graphics, new battles will feel even more immersive in Enlisted. The major overhaul of the Global Illumination has made the game visually richer, and the interplay of light and shadow more detailed. Additionally, navigating in dark environments will be easier, and these graphical improvements won't decrease the FPS!
Improved radio operators. Now you'll be able to call in supply crate airdrops simply by marking a location on the map. The new premium radio operator squads introduced with this update (available in the store), as well as radio operator squads from future events, will also be able to call in rocket strikes a more effective artillery support against vehicles.
There are plenty of other novelties too. You can now change the camouflage on premium and event tanks, there are new weapons and vehicles waiting for you in the tech trees, and the mighty KV-2 and the powerful 8,8 cm Flak 37 Sfl. have also joined the fight as premium vehicles.
Upcoming updates, like the "Making Enlisted a Better Place", will introduce bonuses for squads with unique soldiers, recoil improvements for all infantry weapons, and much more. Stay tuned, update Enlisted, and check out the full changelog!
