Heroes & Generals' Utz Update Brings New Airfield Map, Improved Animations

When I see the name "Utz," I think of the snack brand. But Heroes & Generals Utz update, going live today, is actually named for a German general, and brings a new map and lots of other improvements to the game.

The main feature of the Utz update is the new Forward Airfield map, described in detail in the video above. With four possible attack routes to capture the makeshift airfield, players will have plenty of options for how to proceed. Utz also brings better soldier control while running, tweaks to semi-automatic rifle control, and makes several modifications to the bonuses granted by combat badges.
