PVE,
or team mode, provides the chance to take part in large-scale battles
with a group of friends! This allows players to improve their combat
skills, learn to play in a team and obtain rewards for completing
special missions.
This
is an independent part of the game and a great alternative to PVP
battles. All PVE battles will take place on maps specifically
designed for this mode and modelled on real-world locations. Players
will face the same challenges and conditions as a tank crew during
real military action. The surroundings, military hardware and visual
effects will create a powerful effect of presence.
Tank
commanders will have to operate in very different surroundings: in
deserts and mountains, forests and swamps, towns and deserted
steppes, in snow or slush. The surroundings will have an impact on
battle tactics: for example, uplands may be occupied by artillery and
rocky terrain will slow movement down. The enemy will certainly make
the most of any opportunities provided by the terrain.
Each
mission will consist of three armed incursions and in each of these
the team will operate on a new map. The entire mission will take
around 20 minutes. Players can rest between incursions and prepare
for a new attack.
If
the player's vehicle is destroyed, they will switch to observer mode
until the end of that stage of the mission. There is no instant
recovery.
Missions
will be divided by difficulty levels: easy, regular and difficult.
The more difficult the level the higher the reward if it is completed
successfully. Player prizes will include experience, reputation and
game currency.
Enemy
tanks will be operated by developed game intellect that can evaluate
situations and act accordingly. If a mission is repeated the player
may face entirely different enemy tactics. Where the enemy appears,
their hardware classes and models and movement route could change.
In
some missions, the squad may face superior enemy forces or even a
mini boss - an especially powerful battle unit that it is virtually
impossible to destroy alone.
Players
may receive different battle tasks, both main tasks, which are
critical to the success of the mission, and additional tasks that
have an impact on the amount of rewards received. All tasks are
divided into types:
- Attack - seize an enemy position from the enemy within the alloted time.
- Destroy - destroy a specific target.
- Escape - cover a distance while under close enemy fire within the alloted time.
- Defense - hold on to a location or point for an alloted time.
- Survival - resist an enemy offensive, attacking in waves, for the alloted time.
In
team mode there can be teams of a maximum of four players. A group of
friends or clan members can gather to complete a mission or you can
join a randomly compiled team of fighters.
It
is important to play as a team: concerted actions will enable enemy
tanks to be dealt with much quicker and lead to speedier task
completion. It is necessary to have different classes of hardware in
the squad to successfully achieve objectives.
