How to take part in testing a new patch in World of Tanks. Test server World of Tanks Test server wot 9.20

Tankers!

We are starting a general test of update 1.7.1. Each player will now be able to test double-barreled tanks, as well as a new functionality - a dismantling kit. It can be used to remove complex equipment.

The most important thing about double-barreled guns

The new branch will begin at level VIII - after KV-3. Here are three new cars that will appear in update 1.7.1:

• IS-2-II (VIII level)
• IS-3-II (tier IX)
• ST-II (X level)

The crews of all three double-barreled tanks will consist of 5 people:

• commander (radio operator);
• gunner;
• driver mechanic;
• charging;
• charging.

Double-barreled tanks have several firing modes, each with its own nuances:

• Cyclic (standard) - firing with one weapon, which is reloaded after each shot.
• Sequential - alternate firing from both guns.
• A salvo is simultaneous firing from two guns.

The most important things about the dismantling kit

• The dismantling kit may fall out of the fifth allowance (large).
• Each removal kit can only be used once to remove one piece of complex equipment.
• Dismantling complex equipment for gold will also be available.

Full list of changes

• Dismantling kit
• Changes in vehicle parameters
• Cards

A new type of consumable equipment has been added to the game - a dismantling kit, with which you can remove one piece of complex equipment for free. A dismantling kit can be obtained from every fifth (large) allowance. Improved equipment is still dismantled only for bonds.

How to take part in testing

• Participation in testing
• general information
• Peculiarities
• Discussion on the forum

• Due to the large number of tankers on the test server, there is a restriction on user entry. All new players who want to participate in testing the update will be placed in a queue and will be able to log onto the server when it is free.
• If the user changed the password after January 7, 23:59 (Moscow time), authorization on the test server will only be available using the password that was used before the specified time.

• Payments are not processed on the test server.
• This testing does not increase experience and credit earnings.
• Achievements on the test server will not transfer to the main one.
• During testing of version 1.7.1, scheduled technical work is carried out on the test servers (25 minutes on each server starting at 7:00 (Moscow time)).
• Please note: the same rules apply on the test server as on the main game server. Consequently, there are also penalties for violating these rules in accordance with the License Agreement.
• The Help Center does not review requests related to the General Test.
• We remind you: the most reliable way to download the World of Tanks client, as well as its test versions and updates, is on the official game portal. By downloading a game from other sources, you expose your computer to the risk of malware infection. The development team is not responsible for links to the game client and updates (as well as their content) on third-party resources.

Update 9.20.1 is approaching its official release and we are starting a new series of general tests. Participate in testing and evaluate the changes that developers have been working on recently. Here's what will be available on the public test server:

• Rebalance of Tier X light tanks, as well as British and American vehicles.
• Reworked personal combat missions with a new interface and mechanics that allow you to complete them faster.
• Additional rewards for high performance in battle are new ways to obtain bonds.

The changes can be found in detail in recent publications:

How to get to the general test?

Bonuses and medals

From 9.20.1, when winning medals in the “Epic Achievements” and “Battle Hero” categories, the player will receive additional encouragement in the form of bonds. Please note: coupons will not be awarded for cumulative medals. The number of bonds is not final and may change.

Improvements for pitched battles

The following changes have been made to the “General Battle” battle type:

1. The message about victory or defeat in battle has changed.
   Added a new type of battle victory or defeat message to make it easier for players to understand when and why a battle ended. The message has separate animations for winning, losing and drawing. Additional text shows why the fight ended. When a battle ends when a base is captured, the capture progress bar goes into a "locked" state shortly before a message appears to indicate that the outcome will not change.
   This innovation has been applied to all random and ranked battles, as well as the general battle.
2. Updated reward tooltips, which describe various conditions for obtaining. In a standard, oncoming battle and assault, the conditions are the same, but in a general battle the requirements are higher.
3. Improved combat interface (HUD) in general battles.
   The background transparency of player list panels has been reduced to make the information easier to read against a light background (sky, water, etc.).
   Boundary markings have been added to the top panel to improve perception.

Improvements for Training Ground mode

Changes:

• Irrelevant options have been disabled in the context menus of vehicle upgrade windows, the research tree, and the vehicle carousel.
• Rewards (credits and experience) for victories and defeats when completing the training ground have been balanced.
• Rewards for completing the training ground are now displayed in the notification center.
• Added a notification to players that they will not receive a reward when completing the training ground again.
• The crew recruitment window has become more informative.

Corrections:

• Fixed a bug where some interface elements were displayed incorrectly in color blind mode.
• Fixed errors that occurred when saving and restoring settings (vehicle panel and sights) when the player entered the training range and exited this mode.
• Fixed the rendering of some game hints (unmasking when shooting, the need to return to the capture circle).
• Fixed a rare bug where the “Skip Tutorial” button was not displayed correctly.
• The results of battles in the mode have been removed from the notification center.
• Fixed display of the EULA license window when restarting the game client.
• Descriptions of vehicle characteristics in training ground loading screens are now correct.
• Fixed a bug due to which the music tracks of the battle, Hangar and the final video of the training ground overlapped each other.
• Added reward descriptions to the victory screen.
• Fixed bugs in bot behavior.
• Fixed errors in displaying map boundaries.

General test of update 9.19 released

General information about the test server:

• Due to the large number of players on the test server, there is a restriction on user entry. All new players who want to take part in testing the update will be placed in a queue and will be able to log onto the server as it becomes available.
• If the user changed the password after 23:59 (Moscow time) on April 28, 2017, authorization on the test server will only be available using the password that was used before the specified time.

Features of the test server 9.19:

• Payments are not made to the test server.
• In this testing, earnings of experience and credits do not increase.
• Achievements on the test server will not transfer to the main server.

We would also like to inform you that during testing of 9.19, scheduled maintenance will be carried out on the test server:

• First server - 7:00 (Moscow time) daily. The average duration of work is 25 minutes.
• Second server - 8:00 (Moscow time) daily. The average duration of work is 25 minutes.

• Note! The test server is subject to the same rules as the main game server, and therefore, penalties for violating these rules apply in accordance with the User Agreement.
• The Help Center does not review requests related to the General Test.
• We remind you: the most reliable way to download the World of Tanks client, as well as its test versions and updates, is in a special section on the official game portal. By downloading a game from other sources, you expose your computer to the risk of malware infection. The development team is not responsible for links to the game client and updates (as well as their content) on third-party resources.

Participation in testing 9.19:

• Download (4 MB).
• Run the installer, which will download and install the test version of the 9.19 client (7.45 GB for the SD version and an additional 4.85 GB for the HD version). When you run the installer, it will automatically offer to install the test client in a separate folder on your computer; You can also specify the installation directory yourself.
• If you have the previous test version installed (9.18_test3), then when you launch the general test launcher it will be updated: 372 MB for the SD version and an additional 186 MB for the HD version.
• Please note: Installing in a folder containing previous test client files may cause technical problems.
• Run the installed test version.
• Only those players who registered in World of Tanks before 23:59 (Moscow time) on April 28, 2017 can take part in the test.

List of changes from the first general test 9.19:

• The "Company Battle" mode has been removed from the game.
• The “Combat Brotherhood” and “Battle Friends” skills will work in mixed crews.
• Added a new mode – Ranked Battles
• Combat missions have been reworked:

  As part of the first iteration of the combat missions rework, the visual and functional part of the combat missions and promotions window was significantly changed.

  A new “Combat Missions” item has appeared in the Hangar, through which you can get to the corresponding screen. Combat missions are divided into three sections: strategic, tactical, and missions for the selected vehicle.

  Strategic goals include tasks that require significant effort to complete (for example, marathons).

  Tactical tasks include those that can be grouped into certain groups according to their meaning (for example, daily combat missions, combat training, etc.).

  Each task is displayed as a tile, and they are all conveniently sorted - the highest priority ones are listed first. A detailed description of each task can be seen by expanding the tile. Thanks to the new presentation of tasks in the Hangar interface, it will be much easier for you to understand them!

  The game constantly hosts various promotions - most of them reduce the prices of equipment, equipment, transfer of experience and much more. And now promotions are available from the “Shop” menu item. Each promotion is presented in the form of a tile with a detailed description of the item being discounted, the discount amount and other information. All tiles are interactive - by clicking on any of them, you can take advantage of the promotion offer directly in the game client.

• Changes in clan management:

  In the new version, the possibilities for managing a clan will expand. Now, without leaving the game client, you can:

  • distribute gold from the clan treasury;
  • change the positions of clan players;
  • transfer control of the clan;
  • view extended statistics on clan players.

• Improvements for Fortified Areas 1.6:

  The following medals, which were awarded for activities in the Fortified Area before version 9.17.1, have been moved to the “Special” category:

  • "Warrior";
  • "For decisive battles";
  • "Conqueror";
  • "Crusher of Fortresses";
  • "Counterstrike."

• Voice acting changes: Female voice acting has been introduced for all nations. Instead of the old option of “national” voice acting, you can now select “commander” voice acting in the settings window. The choice of “commander” voice acting makes voice notifications corresponding not only to the nation, but also to the gender of the crew commander of the vehicle selected by the player. Thus, if the commander of your car is a girl, then the car itself will “speak” in a female voice.

• The following vehicles have been remastered in HD quality: KV-13, T-44, IS-2, BDR G1B, Renault FT 75 BS, Renault UE 57, Renault FT AC, Alecto, Excelsior, Vickers Mk.E Type B, STA -1, MTLS-1G14

• Changes in technology:
  • Changes in the German technology branch: Tank added for super testers: Tiger 131
  • Changes in the Chinese technology branch: Tanks added to super testers - WZ-120-1G FT, WZ-120G FT
  • Changes in the USSR technology branch: Tank added for super testers: T-103
  • Changes in the US vehicle branch: M4A3E8 Sherman – gun mantlet armor has been strengthened. M4A3E8 Fury – armor of the gun mantlet has been strengthened. M4A3E2 Sherman Jumbo – armor of the gun mantlet has been strengthened

And finally, about ranked battles:

An integral part of every good online game is checking for updates. In the World of Tanks project, a few weeks before the release of the update, test servers are first opened on the main client. The main goal is to evaluate new maps, changes in technical characteristics of vehicles, the introduction of new mechanics or changes to existing ones.

Test servers are available for approximately three weeks, which is how long it takes to test the functionality of game changes.

In this article we will look at what the WoT test server is, how to get to it, features and rules on it.

First, let’s get acquainted with what is meant by the phrase “test server”. Essentially, this is a virtual resource on which a complete copy of the game is stored, but with changes already introduced. The main task is to test and check the new patch, how it will affect the game mechanics, how it will affect the balance of the game. In parallel with this, special attention is paid to correcting errors and bugs.

After fixing these, the second integration of the test server opens, which takes into account all the detected problems. As soon as the developers are satisfied with the testing results, the patch is introduced on the main game client.

How to download and take part in testing

Anyone can take part in testing the game. There are two algorithms for downloading a test version of the client.

For players who use Wargaming Game Center:

The second option is to get to the test server without using Wargaming Game Center:

1. Download a special installer.
2. The test client MUST be installed on the computer in a separate folder, and not in the main game client.
3. Run the installer, which will download and install the test client.
4. After launch, the launcher will download all additional files.
5. Log in with your details (login/password for your account) and you can play.

Players who register approximately a week and a half before the opening of the test will be able to take part in testing. Owners of newer accounts will not be included in the database that is being transferred to the test.

general information

There are currently two test servers available for players. They are common to representatives of the regions of America, Europe, Asia and the CIS. Therefore, you should not be surprised that chat communication will be in different languages.

A large number of people wanting to try out updates sometimes leads to a queue when entering the test servers. All new players are automatically moved to the queue and will be able to enter as soon as a spot becomes available.

If you changed your password within ten days before opening the test, you will be able to log in only using the old data, which was copied to the test database.

From time to time, servers will be temporarily unavailable due to scheduled daily maintenance for approximately 25 minutes. Before the second test integration, the servers will be closed for a longer period of time, which will be needed to make changes and fix bugs.

At this time, you can uninstall the first version of the client if you experience difficulties with free space on your computer.

Test server features

First of all, it is worth remembering the rules. The test client of the game is subject to the same rules as the main one. Consequently, violation of them will be subject to penalties in accordance with the License Agreement.

There are two key points:

• no payments are accepted during the test;
• Earned experience, credits and achievements are not transferred to the main account.

In general, there is no need to “donate” here, because during the test players receive a large supply of in-game resources:

• 20,000 gold;
• 100,000,000 free experience;
• 100,000,000 credits.

Brief summary

The test server not only provides players with the opportunity to be the first to evaluate the innovations of the next patch, but also to resolve personal issues. If you previously doubted whether it was worth downloading any branch, then thanks to an unlimited supply of credits and experience, you can open any vehicle. However, you will most likely only be able to test levels 8-9-10 in battle. There are few players at other levels, so you can spend a lot of time waiting for a fight, but never play.

The only thing that can slightly blur the impression of the technology is the constant use of special (gold) shells by players. Therefore, the sensations from the quality of tank armor will not cause delight.

An undoubted advantage is the purchase of premium equipment in the in-game store. This is a good chance to try out its capabilities and see if it suits you before purchasing it on the main game client for real money.
