Check out the update to the beta, released today.

There's a new tutorial that has been put out, too, highlighting some gameplay and talking about some new features, including some clan stuff and some premium tanks.

Had two matches in a new map. So far I like it...

It looks like an action RTS game.

Yeah. Pretty much...battle out...get points...upgrade or buy new tanks. Repeat.

I'm rather enjoying this. Easy to start playing, difficult to master, etc etc.

I just downloaded it (EU version) and tried to install it - and my AVG antivirus warned me that it tried to put a rather nasty trojan into my system! "pws-spyeye!env.a". What gives?

Strange. I have AVG antivirus but mine didnt flag anything like that. Keep in mind I downloaded the NA version.
You might want to email the developers and let them know there is a trojan in the software but more likely is that the program is being mistaken by AVG as having the trojan but it could be a false positive.

Hopefully it doesnt actually have a trojan in it.

April 12th looks like the release date. Woot!

If they could make this so you could operate the tank with a joystick it would be a hell of a lot better.

I'll likely take the plunge and preorder some gold.
