addedNew AAA modelsWe've finally put some proper AAA models in there, replacing the old ones. These new ones have rotating turrets and cannons that can tilt upwards. The muzzle flash particle effects should look much better now as well. Go ahead and bomb them, or just casually fly over and enjoy the tickling feeling of 20/23 mm bullets on your belly! Shoutout to awesome artist partner .modernator!
changedCustom game modifications capSome people have been setting up organized matches on Discord, which is just awesome. There was a request for a feature to limit modification power in these matches, to ensure a completely level playing field. This made a lot of sense, so now, when you start a Custom Game (previously known as Practice Game) you'll have the option to set a power cap or even disable modifications completely.

Guess we can call that a hat track, right? To celebrate these accomplishments, we're giving out two coupons worth 50 wings each. Yes, all players can use these codes (Options/Redeem Code), but only for a limited time, so make sure to jump straight in and claim the rewards! The codes are:

Clan tag tests!
We've put the fundamentals of clan tags in there. While we don't have a full concept of squadrons/clans in the game (at least not yet), we still wanted to make it possible for teams to wear uniform tags without having to change Steam names. The way you apply for a clan tag now, is by jumping into Discord and contact Bankler about it. You'll need to be a team of at least four active pilots to qualify. Regardless if you are playing with a team or if you're a lone-wolf, please join us on Discord ! Best regards //Bankler
