World of tank test version. Test the new engine

Instructions for downloading the test version of WoT

Download the World of Tanks test - this is exactly the problem faced by many players who don’t really want to delve into the details, but want to try everything out as quickly as possible. To download the test World of Tanks, just go to the official website in the appropriate section, and after performing simple operations, get a test client of the game on your computer. But sometimes it happens that when trying to download a test client there was an error, or the server stopped responding. What to do in such a situation? Fortunately, there is a solution to the problem, and it has several ways; in this article we will try to analyze all the possible ways that will help you enjoy the test client.

To download World of Tanks test from other resources, you need to remember a simple rule, which states that all the files that you want to download and install on your computer must be posted on reliable sources, which in turn are confirmed by the developers themselves. Such sources include large fan resources for the game, as well as groups and websites of top clans that have been in the project for a very long time and have a positive reputation.

Various torrents, scam sites and other other sources can be dangerous both for your computer and for your account. In most cases, all software and the game client posted there may contain malware that can damage the system or transfer your account information to third parties. Therefore, you can download from such resources only at your own peril and risk.

Testing on third-party resources

So what is the advantage of third-party resources that legally and honestly distribute the game’s test client? To be honest, there are a lot of positive things about them. When downloading, they never interrupt connections, they very rarely experience failures, they immediately upload the full version of the test client without the need to update it and, accordingly, they have a much higher data transfer speed than on the official website. You can find out a detailed list of fan resources that you can trust on the official website in the “Fan Zone” section.

Thus, you got acquainted with the ability to download a test game even if the connection with the main server is broken. It is also worth noting that sometimes the required file is posted on the game’s fan resources much earlier than the developers officially post it. So now the priorities of sources are visible to the naked eye, now you can accurately determine the place from where you will receive the necessary content.

The Common Test client server has a test version of your Wargaming account, meaning that all the vehicles purchased and the research that you have completed will be the same. But don"t forget these key points:

• Though your login details are the same, your test account is still completely separate from your normal account. Achievements and research that you complete on the test client will not be carried over to your normal play account
• Real money transactions are not possible on the test server and payments will not be accepted
• All test accounts will receive a one-time payment of:
  
  • 100,000,000
  • 100,000,000
  • 20,000
• Depending on the aims of the test, Credits and Experience rates may not be increased

The test server is subject to the same EULA and general rules as the World of Tanks game server. This means that you still need to play nice, or you will be subject to the same consequences as on the regular, "production" game servers.

Getting Started

Installing and playing in the Common Test is virtually the same as installing the "regular" World of Tanks. To participate in the test, you need to take the following steps:

• Install the Common Test client,
  

• Update World of Tanks via the launcher (total download depends on the update, but is more than 8 GB)

• If you have already installed the Common Test game client, the launcher will update to the new version automatically

Be sure to install the Test launcher in a different folder from the current game client version. Also, close all game clients before installing the update.

If you previously installed the Test client and are having problems updating or starting, we recommend uninstalling and reinstalling the Test client.

Feedback

Once you have logged into the test client, you are free to play as much or as little as you want. We encourage you to try out all the new features and see what you can do!

Once you have been playing for a while, please let us know your feedback by posting in the dedicated forum threads. The appropriate links will be provided in the respective announcement. Wargaming community managers will collect feedback and report to the development team after the test period.

What makes good feedback? Here"s some examples of things you can bring up:

• Any bugs or glitches that you have found in the game. Got stuck in the scenery? Game crashes when you do a certain action? Tell us all about it!
• Honest feedback about vehicles and game mechanics. If you think something doesn't function well, then please tell us
• Feedback isn't just about being negative! Anything you particularly like? Do you love the new stats for a vehicle? If the developers get a sense of what the community likes, it can allow them to focus on other improvements

Remember that the Common Test is about testing! Every new feature is subject to change before the final release.

Server Cycles

In order to make the test experience more efficient, it may be necessary to limit the number of players on the test server. If the server is full when you log in, you"ll be placed into a queue.

In addition, each periphery (server) of the Common Test will be restarted regularly according to the following schedule:

• First Periphery: Every EVEN day of the month. Average duration will be around 25 minutes
• Second Periphery: Every ODD day of the month. Average duration will be around 25 minutes
• Central Database: Every day. Average duration will be around 2 or 3 minutes
• The test server may also be subject to unscheduled restarts and maintenance.

Finally, the Common Test is also updated a few times each test period to address collected feedback or add other new features. Keep an eye on the Common Test article(s) and the forum for details on new iterations!

Not long ago, a new update was released for the game World of Tanks, which was dubbed another nerf to tank destroyers. The new patch 0.9.2, in addition to the nerf of certain top cars, introduced a significant number of changes to the game. On the test server, as always, there was a line of people eager to test the new update. If you are a beginner, you have probably thought about how to play on the World of Tanks test server. Anyway, what is a test server and how does it differ from regular RU servers?

Perhaps it’s worth starting with the fact that the Common Test 1/2 test servers only work while testing new patches. Thanks to open testing, Wargaming collects patch data, errors, bugs and finalizes the update. Thus, while testing a new update, the test servers may be restarted several times.

To play on the test server, you must have a pre-registered account. As a matter of fact, if you have never played World of Tanks before starting the test, then you will not be able to play on the test server. A month before the test, a cut of the base is made. Thus, when you enter the game on the Common_Test server, you will have tanks in the hangar at the time the base is cut. If you changed your password, you will have to use the pass that you had previously.

But why is everyone so eager to get on the test server? Firstly, in addition to getting acquainted with the innovations, the player can play on any vehicle, since when he enters the test server, in addition to his account funds (gold/silver), he is also allocated an additional amount: 20 thousand gold, 100 million free experience and 100 millions of silver. Any player will envy such a reserve of currency. Alas, all achievements and “money” are not transferred to regular servers.

Thanks to gold, players can buy any premium tank and play on it. True, 20 thousand gold will not give you the opportunity to buy two premium tanks of level 8 at once. But experienced players have already “seen” this situation. Many of them have a special second account for tests. It is from this that they prefer to play on test servers. And if there is not enough gold for a premium tank, then they switch to the main account. A huge amount of experience and credits allows you to open any branch of interest and buy any top tank. After playing several battles on a level 10 tank, the player can decide whether to upgrade to this branch or not.

However, the test attracts not only players who want to play on new combat vehicles, but also players who like to shoot gold. After all, the test gives out 20,000 gold, which is enough to buy gold shells for hundreds of battles.

As a rule, the company indicates the time for cutting off the database so that players who have changed their passwords can access the server, as well as the approximate time for stopping the server. You can find out in advance about the launch of the test from the corresponding section of the official website - http://worldoftanks.ru/ru/news/pc-browser/1/.

To start testing, you should download a special installer called WoT_internet_install_ct.exe from the section http://worldoftanks.ru/ru/update and run it. The volume of the installer is small - 4.5 MB. But after launching the launcher, the game will begin downloading, which is at least 8.5 gigabytes. In this regard, before downloading and running the installer, free up space on your local disk.

After installing the test client, just launch it, enter your data and play. Playing on the test is no different from playing on regular servers. Well, the answer to the question of how to play on the WoT test server has been received.

Read the news more often, watch the official KTTS program and get ready for the new test.

Tanks in update 1.3

Return of the T-50-2 tank to World of Tanks

The sensation of update 1.3 will be the return of the legendary Soviet tank T-50-2 to the game. At one time, when the T-50-2 was removed from World of Tanks, this resulted in a large wave of negative reviews for the game creators. But then the developers did not listen to the opinion of the gaming community and removed the tank anyway. And now, a few years later, the tank returns. For now only for the super test.

We are waiting for the "firefly" based in patch 1.4 or 1.5. The likelihood that a tank will be added to level 5 is negligible.
