New stadiums, new opportunities and good old tank football.
After the release of a special “football” update on June 10, a new res_mods folder appeared in the game folder. Therefore, if you were using mods before the June 10 update, you will need to update them to the new version.
Match rules
The duration of the match is 7 minutes or up to 3 goals scored by one team. In the event of a tie, after 7 minutes, overtime is assigned (up to 4 minutes), the winner of which is determined by the first goal scored or having a game advantage (ball control on the opponent's side). Game advantage is measured by containment points, which are awarded to the team that controls the ball in the opponent's half of the field: the first team to score 100 containment points wins.
Sports equipment
Players will be awarded a special T-62A “Sport” tank along with a slot. The crew consists of one tanker. It is also possible to transfer any Soviet crew commander from a medium tank without retraining him. The tank's ammunition load is limited to 70 shells! Be vigilant and pay close attention to your ammo consumption. As before, the T-62A "Sport" cannot be destroyed, nor can its modules or crew be damaged - only the track can be shot down. Can be installed on a tank additional equipment, equipment, as well as unique emblems. Especially for the game event “Tank Football”, special sports types of camouflage and flags of European football countries were added to the game client, which can be installed on the T-62A “Sport”.
During the game event, the game client will have the opportunity to purchase 4 commemorative emblems that can be installed on any tank in the game. At the end of the event, emblems will be removed from sale.
Added new consumable "Turbocharger". Activating it gives the tank significant acceleration for a limited time.
A unique projectile-resistant ball was developed especially for tank football. Created using secret technologies from the advanced military industry, the ball is able to withstand gigantic loads: gun shots, collisions with armored vehicles and much more. Who knows where the limit of its strength is...
For easier navigation during the match, a ball pointer has been added - the field will display a projection of its position. In addition, the ball is displayed on the mini-map.
Team composition
The teams have three T-62A Sport tanks. These can be either randomly selected players or platoons of two to three players.
Sports infrastructure
Tank football battles will take place in three new stadiums created specifically for this sport. These are the most modern arenas, taking into account the characteristics of the sports discipline: Himmelstadium, Abandoned Stadium and Stade Eifel. We took into account the experience of previous competitions and made the necessary improvements to the design of the playing field - now tanks will be able to actively fight along the edges of the map, using their shape for various tactical actions.
Football mode will be available to players who have installed the SD or HD version of the game client. Football mode will not be available in the mini-client.
Combat missions
Tank football is a challenge for real fighters. Score goals, give assists and win! Focus on the fight and results will bring players additional income in game credits and experience based on the results of the battle, as well as unique rewards for participating in the game event.
The author of an assist/pass is considered to be the player who touched the ball directly in front of the teammate who scored the goal. If a player takes the ball from the opponent and scores a goal on his own, the assist is not counted towards anyone.
Football tournament - 2016
During tank football, players will be able to test their own strength and take part in the Tank Football 2016 championship. T The tournament consists of two stages: a qualifying stage, in which the 4 best tank football squads in the region will be determined, and a super final, which we will show live July 9. At each stage of the tournament you can win a prize, and the winner will take 2600 $ ! Good luck!
