===Features & Improvements===

====Features & Improvements (5)====
* The Howitzer! Rain explosive shells from above to disrupt and eliminate the enemy. Shells that land in the vicinity will knock back.
+
* Ping is now also taken into account when sorting servers.
* The Barracks! Customise all classes across all factions with your preferred uniform, head, weapons and voice pitch.
+
* Opening P menu while aiming at a player will now highlight that player's menu entry.
* Player Cards! Customise your personal player card with unique unlockable banners, portraits, titles and medals. Keep an eye out for future updates for more on this front.
+
* On-Screen Keyboard
* Random Map Vote! Not too keen on the current selection of maps available? Cast your vote for a random map. This function is customisable via server configuration commands. We’re sure it will come in handy when hosting events.
+
:» Added support very long texts.
* A Fresh UI! From the moment you launch the game and all the way until you finish a match, you’ll see a whole new UI that has been designed and created to further improve the user experience and provide much-needed modularity for future updates that the old UI simply didn’t allow for.
+
:» Added hold functionality for moving text cursor, space and backspace.
* Customisable UI! Change the position of the health bar, game chat, minimap and kill feed to your preference. Come this update you’re also able to adjust the game chat’s font size as well as the minimap’s size.
+
:» Added ' \ ' and ' | ' keys.
* Seasonal Global Leaderboards! Compete for the highest score in classless leaderboards split across the game’s Napoleonic and WW1 fronts.
 
* Seasonal Regiment Leaderboards! Compete in a seasonal race to the top alongside fellows in your regiment. Regiments that gather the highest score through participating in public events or playing on official servers will appear at the top of the registry list.
 
* Regiment Discords. Players are now able to join a regiment’s Discord by scanning a QR code.
 
* Explosion Knockbacks. Explosive barrels now pack a bigger punch and will knock back the enemy if in the vicinity.
 
* Enlisted Service. An enlisted will no longer count as part of a regiment’s strength if they haven’t logged in 30 days. Inactive individuals will still remain members of the regiment and will be counted once more as part of the regiment’s strength should they become active.
 
* In-Game Store. Gift or purchase Holdfast’s cosmetic DLCs through the game.
 
* The introductions of player cards come with additional unlocks for all existing cosmetic DLCs.
 
* A wider selection of crosshairs has been made available.
 
* Introduced new admin tools accessible through the Round Players ‘P’ panel allowing administrators to slap, bring or go to another player.
 
* Introduced dynamic artillery spawn sections configurable by server configuration commands. You can also set randomised artillery to spawn on map load through this new function.
 
* The new addition of the administrator role provides access rights to everything in the regiment with the exception of disbanding the regiment, promoting others to the administrator role or kicking the regiment’s owner. That’s mutiny, Sir!
 
* Redesigned and redeveloped from the ground up Holdfast’s regiment registry, leaderboards and stats backend systems to improve stability and allow for the future expansion of content.
