WoT Console: Update 3.4 “Overlord” Coming in Hot!

The battle expands into new territories with Update 3.4 “Overlord!” Battle on Normandy Beach, or in a downpour of rain in Komarin. This update also has improvements to the Armor and Component Viewers and plenty more!

A New Map and Map Variant

Overlord

The epic Invasion of Normandy comes to life on “Overlord,” which features a breached Atlantikwall, a beach on the English Channel to the west, and high cliffs to the east. Vehicles with good gun depression can take advantage of numerous vantage points and ridges to poke and fire.

“Overlord” features custom modifications like unique bunkers, farms and more!

Komarin – Rain

A little rain doesn’t stop the tank carnage. “Komarin – Rain” adds showers to this favorite map, so stay clear of the center swamp and be careful not to get spotted when you cross the rough countryside.

Improvements to Armor and Component Viewer

The Armor and Component Viewers are great ways to get vital information from your most battle-tested tanks. Since its introduction, we’ve heard your feedback and added a few more stats:

• Engine Module: Displays engine fire chance
• Gun Module: Displays gun elevation and depression
• Suspension Module: Terrain resistance included
• Ammunition Module: Shell velocity added

But that’s not all — you can now use the Armor and Component Viewers for unpurchased vehicles in the Tech Tree and for Store bundles! (bundles must have only one tank.)

Unresearched vehicle overview

In the Tech Tree, select “Tank Info.” With the bumper buttons, you can move between the inspectors.

Deciding what to spend your earned XP and Silver is tough; use the Armor and Component Viewers to get a quick brief on a prospect tank!
