December 27, 2013 — Gaijin Entertainment wishes everyone Happy New Year and launches second wave of Closed Beta program for Ground Forces Expansion for military MMO game War Thunder. Selected players, who participated in various daily in-game challenges during November, will continue to receive invites to Closed Beta during second wave.
For users that want exclusive content that will become collector’s items once the Open Beta for Ground Forces starts, there is an option to purchase one of the advanced packs at http://online.gaijinent.com. All of these packs also grant access to the Closed Beta, and they will remain available for purchase until Open Beta starts.
For everyone interested in Ground Forces development, Gaijin Entertainment published a series of Closed Beta diaries (read part one, two and three about damage model and customization system), and also organized live-stream (http://www.twitch.tv/warthunder/b/490335842) event with developers.
