Release Notes - 2023-01-10


Attention, General!

Let’s dive right into this week’s changes! In the last update we changed how idling armies react to being engaged in close combat. The same changes are now also being applied to stealth armies. When attacked while idling, stealth armies will only defend. The army can still go on the offensive and attack, but it has to be actively ordered to do so.

Some of you are already using the new inventory system, but now is the time for everyone to get to use it. We are happy to let you know that, within the next few days, the inventory system will be made available to all players in Call of War.

Additionally we fixed a bug that caused the animation for rockets to reset mid-flight, made it so that the flight corridor of tactical bombers no longer blocks vision of objects below and corrected multiple UI related issues.

For the complete list of changes please check out the detailed Release Notes. You can share your feedback with us right here on the Forums and on our Discord Server.

We wish you best of luck on the battlefield!

Release Notes - 2023-03-07

Attention Generals!

With Call of War's previous update, new functions to the Stop button and commands when upgrading or converting were added that allowed you to cancel Convert and Upgrade orders. In your feedback on the forums and Discord you provided us with valuable feedback that you were not happy about the introduction of certain behaviours. In particular, that the feature prevented giving commands once Upgrade/Convert were started. Especially with some edge cases. We therefore decided to revert this change.
It is possible again to add actions without cancelling the Convert or Upgrading process. These actions will then be executed after the Convert or Upgrading process is complete. The Stop command can still be used to cancel the actions.

Next to that, several bugs were fixed with this update. For example, non-ranged units will no longer add extra morale damage to a province when added to an army with ranged units after this army started attacking a province.
We also solved an issue that could cause players to be flagged as inactive right before the game ends. As a result these players would not receive any reward. Since they were marked as active just moments earlier, they also don't know that it will become an issue. To avoid this problem, Victory checks run before the Day change checks now.
Finally, we added more sorting options for provinces on mobile devices to make it easier for you to do province management. Some bugs related to the search functionality in games that occurred for some languages are also fixed.

For a complete overview of all changes, please grab something to drink and check our detailed Release Notes and share your feedback with us right here on the Forums and on our Discord Server.

Join the new [Speed] World at War now!

Parallel to the new [Speed] World at War map, several improvements and bug fixes were implemented with today's update as well. Game panels now inform if a map has a higher speed factor and the stop button also cancels Convert, and Upgrade orders!

Furthermore, the inventory system, which is currently available to a limited number of players on mobile devices, is now also available to these players when playing the game on desktop.

The list of bugs that were removed with this update is long in general. Armies that don't trigger war when moved to a neutral province center, rockets that return mid-flight when an airfield was destroyed or the chat becoming transparent every time it gets updated are just a very few highlights of the full list.

Attention Generals!

This update features various in-game bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements. We reworked the army details panel, so you can better see HP of your armies and resolved several issues related to ‘at war’ state. When attacking a province center you and the player under attack will be automatically switched from ‘at peace’ to ‘at war’ which wasn’t always the case in the past.

We also implemented a "speed icon" that is displayed on the preview image of event maps with a higher speed factor than the normal speed. Especially for events that have different versions with different speed factors, this will be handy to distinguish them.
Finally, we improved the text display in the marketplace menu for some languages and enabled previously turned-off notifications for diplomacy messages <br><br>

Attention, General!

The game has become more beautiful. We have updated the background art on the landing page. It now shows the current CoW 2.0 map visuals and UI design.

Once again, our bug hunters were busy over the last two weeks. It is no longer possible to queue two of the same building simultaneously. Instead, an error message will be displayed.<br>
We also re-added the missing countdown timer in the pop-up tooltip for patrolling planes.
