Some system(s) to encourage gaining Victory Points and make it worthwhile to do so (the aim behind this is that matchmaking would benefit from a player-wide consensus to gain VPs)
Ability to see who hasn't done their Operation attack
On October 14th, the Boom Beach developers held a Reddit Ask Me Anything and answered questions from players. In their answers, they revealed following changes coming in the next update:
The Generator can be destroyed to disable the shield, but the shield itself is also attackable, so it can be knocked down without attacking the Generator. See the image below.
Using a Shock Bomb on a Shield Generator has no effect
New HQ level, HQ 21, which will include higher levels of buildings, troops (Armory level 21), and the level 21 Landing Craft
XP level 59 will be required to upgrade the HQ to level 21.

This image was posted by Tim from Supercell on the Boom Beach Forum on October 18th. No explanation whatsoever accompanied the image. Tim simply said, "I'll just leave this here..." The image appears to be Lt. Hammerman staring angrily into a bubble. A different Boom Beach logo is also shown in the corner of the image.
Soon after posting the previous image, Tim also posted this one saying, "I'll just leave this here, too..." The image shows three Riflemen raising their rifles together. It also shows the different Boom Beach logo again.
On the 19th, Tim started an actual Sneak Peeks thread and kicked it off by announcing Task Forces. See the thread.
On the 20th, Tim added the second sneak peek to the thread. Intel is gathered by people in a task force, and it is used to uncover the Blackguard Mainland. See the thread.
On the 21st, info about Operations was added to the sneak peek thread. See the thread.
On the 22nd this sneak peek was released detailing the attacks during the Operation. See the thread.
