Surviving DDoS embled

Dear players!

The DDoS attack we reported last week continues.

We took a number of protective measures, which allowed us to reduce the negative effect. But on certain peripherals at certain intervals, lags and disconnections from the server can still occur.

We understand the discomfort that you have to experience and we prepared compensation for the inconvenience. All players who enter the game from January 24, 09:00 AM (GMT) to January 30, 09:00 AM (GMT) will be credited with 3 days of Premium Tank account.

As soon as we completely eliminate the negative manifestations of the DDoS attack, all players will receive a set of 6 “Surviving DDoS” emblems in memory of opposing the attack.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
