More tank-related goodness hits your consoles this Wednesday! You've asked for more tank customization, and we've come up with a new way for you to deck out your machinery! Plus, we've improved the appearance of the Garage and added something special for our first anniversary. A few more tweaks and bits arrive in this update. You can find the*full update notes*below!
New Features
Urban Camouflage
If more customization is your desire, then more customization you shall have! Introducing urban camouflage -- this new camouflage variant is ideal for tank brawling in city environments. Urban camouflage will be displayed in urban maps instead of the usual summer scheme. So, you will receive a permanent urban camouflage on every tank that currently has a permanent summer camouflage free of charge. Your permanent summer camouflage*must be equipped at the time of the update.
The urban maps will be:

Garage Updates
More than your basic Garage reskin, you can look forward to a new look for the Tech Tree and Garage stat bars and tank details, as well as an improvement in the Tech Tree performance.
Improvements
To help our new players, we have added*dialog boxes*to notify players if they have enough XP to research a package on a tier II vehicle. You'll now also see a dialog box if you have enough Silver*to purchase*a tier II vehicle. If you are a veteran or have already progressed well past tier II, you probably will not see these notifications.
We have adjusted the animation when you ping map sectors, so they will be more noticeable on your mini-map.
Bounty (Sheriff) Mode implemented.*Keep an eye out for special events in which you'll be rewarded for destroying Wargaming staff and other guest players who are flagged!
