Test server wot. World of Tanks test server. Account progress in mode

Update 9.20.1 is coming soon official release and we start new series general tests. Participate in testing and evaluate changes that developers have been working on in Lately. Here is what will be available on the public test server:

  • Rebalance of Tier X light tanks, as well as British and US vehicles.
  • Recycled personal combat missions with a new interface and mechanics that allow you to complete them faster.
  • Additional reward for high efficiency in battle - new ways to get bonds.

The changes can be found in detail in recent publications:

How to get into the general test?

Bonds and medals

Starting from 9.20.1, when winning medals in the Epic Achievements and Battle Hero categories, the player will receive additional rewards in the form of bonds. Please note: Bonds will not be credited for accumulative medals. The number of bonds is not final and may change.

Grand Battle Improvements

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

  1. The message about victory or defeat in battle has changed.
    Added the new kind battle win or loss messages to make it easier for players to understand when and why the battle ended. The message has separate animations for win, lose and draw. Additional text shows why the fight ended. When a battle ends with the base captured, the capture progress bar goes into a "locked" state shortly before the message appears to indicate that the total will not change.
    This innovation is applied to all random and ranked battles, as well as to the general battle.
  2. Updated tooltips for rewards, which describe various acquisition conditions. 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 battle.
    The transparency of the background of the panels with the list of players has been reduced to make the information easier to read on a light background (sky, water, etc.).
    IN top panel Added boundary markers to improve comprehension.

Updated (20-09-2019, 09:38): third test 1.6.1


Test server in game world of Tanks 1.6.1 is a regular server where new maps, features, tanks and other innovations of the game are tested. It is impossible to get to the WOT test server when the player wants it - it opens only at a certain time when the game developers will need it.

The third general test is open!

What is a test server and why is it needed?

Test server is a repository where a copy is stored and reproduced, but with some changes. Of course, before making any changes to the game, they must first be tested.
The first ones see the changes in the staff of WOT developers, then they give access to super-testers. If there are shortcomings, then they are corrected and the version of the new client is tested already under load. They “upload” the test version of the client to the backup server and open access for everyone. Again, the development staff is looking for errors and shortcomings. After - fix and "roll out" a new version of the client.

How to get to the WOT test server

To get to the test server, you need to download a special installer 1.6.1 or install Wargaming Game Center. After that run it. He will offer to download a test client - download it and install it. Next folder will be created. World_of_Tanks_CT(in the directory where the player specified during installation).

Everything is ready to launch! We click on the label of the test client and get to the authorization page and enter the game. We go under our nickname and password, and select one of the two test servers.

Test features. Servers

  • Each player is credited with 20,000 gold at a time, 100,000,000 free experience, 100,000,000 silver.
  • Everything that you earn and buy on the test server will never be transferred to the main one.

What's new in 1.6.1?

  • the ability to change the nation;
  • 11 new styles;
  • changes in ranked battles.

Multinationality


The picture above shows the first multinational tank T-34-85 Rudy, which will be added to the hangar for all testers.

What is multinationality?
A new feature in the game World of Tanks, which allows you to put a Polish crew on the T-34-85 Rudy.

Important! We will be able to change the crew only in the hangar, it will be impossible to do this in battle.

Why is this needed?

In order to pump the crew of different nations on the same machine. If the players like the idea, the developers promised to add more multinational tanks to the game.

Update 1.3 for World of Tanks will be released very soon. What awaits the players in the new patch and when its release date, we will tell right now.

WOT 1.3 update

Firstly, new maps will be added, decals will appear with which you can change the appearance of vehicles. Personal combat missions will now be viewed quickly and conveniently. New tanks will be added to the game. The old legendary "firefly" will be returned to the Soviet tree. The maps will be reworked and one new one will be added. There are many changes. Now the details of what awaits us in patch 1.3 for World of Tanks.

Maps in WOT 1.3

Adding new maps to World of Tanks will be a constant and ongoing process. So version 1.3 will please you with fresh gaming locations. The Oryol ledge is added to the game - this is a map with industrial buildings, railway tracks on the outskirts of the city. Against the backdrop of huge clouds of smoke blocking the sunlight, battles will take place on this map in World of Tanks 1.3.

In addition to the map "Orlovsky ledge" in wot in patch 1.3, such maps as "Himmelsdorf", "Mannerheim Line", "Fishing Bay" and "Industrial Zone" will be changed. Here are the changes in world update of Tanks versions 1.3 are waiting for these maps:

  • Fisherman's Cove will get additional covers that can be effectively attacked from the city part of the map. Some trees have been removed from the center of the game location. Shooting positions will be blocked.
  • Himmelsdorf will get a new redesigned central part and comfortable firing angles. When climbing the mountain, an embankment will appear behind which you can put your combat vehicle in order to hide from the enemy's preemptive fire. Embankments have also been added to the northwestern part of Himmelsdorf near the destroyed depot. (at the very beginning you can see it on our forum)
  • The industrial zone is perhaps the most modified map in update 1.3. Buildings will appear on the map in the places where tanks pass. The hills will get lower. Moved obstacles in major battlefields such as mounds of rubble and debris. On the territory of a coal mine, mountains of mined ore have shifted. The river in the northeast of the map will no longer have a hole, but a house will appear. And the entire eastern part of the map has been completely redesigned to give this territory balance during the battle on both sides.
  • Mannerheim line in patch 1.3 will have fresh ambushes and defenses in the northern and eastern parts of the map. So, after the update, new trees, defensive fortifications will appear on the map. Also, on the Mannerheim Line, the backaches loved by the players will disappear - you will have to look for new ones. Many obstacles that hinder the passage have been altered or completely removed.

In general, changes in game locations can be called balanced. Reworks are aimed at high-quality and interesting combat for each of the considered maps. Also on some other gaming locations, bugs found earlier have been fixed.

LBZ in WOT 1.3

The number of new LBZs in patch 1.3 will be impressive. The classification of LBZ has changed. All old combat missions have been reworked. The menu for viewing personal combat missions will become truly new. At a time, you will be able to see the overall situation of the progress of LBZ on your account.

Now, reward tanks will be issued for completing LBZ in wot 1.3. They were the T-55A and the Object 260, which received additional improvements. New rewards have been prepared for completing combat missions. To view LBZ in update 1.3, visit the new menu in the game interface.

Changes in the LBZ include new interface hints with descriptions and tips for their implementation. Platoon tasks will become personal. Added a graphic progress indicator for each combat mission.

Also, the LBZ of Operation Second Front, which we talked about in the changes of update 1.2 and Operation Excalibur, have undergone processing.

Update 1.3 general test

From 15 to 30 percent of the total mass takes part in testing future updates World players of tanks. What changes await the game in the next patch? The Public Test Overview will tell you details about all the upcoming features and changes that are already being rolled out on the test servers.

Download World of Tanks 1.3 general test

To participate in the general test of update 1.3, download a special installer (4 mb)

Update 1.3's second public test will be accompanied by the addition of AI-controlled tanks to test the possibility of being added to the World of Tanks new game modes. So far, the purpose of adding AI tanks is to reduce the waiting time before the battle.

Tanks in update 1.3

The main work in World of Tanks is being carried out today in the field of expanding the functionality for changing appearance tanks. Update 1.3 marks the start of a long and difficult journey of personalizing vehicles in the game.

The 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 turned out to be a big wave of negative reviews for the creators of the game. 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. So far only for the supertest.

We are waiting for the "firefly" based in patch 1.4 or 1.5. The probability that a tank will be added to level 5 is negligible. Most likely, he will receive the status of a tank of level 10 or 7th as a last resort. The developers plan to keep the characteristics of the T-50-2, which he had previously.

Decals in World of Tanks

The new patch version 1.3 will add large decals to the game for all Tier 10 vehicles and Tier 8 Premium tanks. To select a decal, you need to enter the "Decals" tank appearance menu and go to the last tab at the bottom. There will be 40 pieces to choose from. various decals, each of which can be adjusted in size in the chosen place. Up to four different decals can be added to one tank.

We're introducing the first public test of Update 1.1 with the Second Front Personal Missions campaign, the Polish tank branch, new and updated maps, and more.

Personal combat missions: "Second Front"

The long-awaited new personal combat mission campaign "Second Front" is here. Three combat operations various conditions missions and three new tanks as the main reward. This campaign will be a serious challenge, and the completion of tasks will be generously rewarded.

"Second Front" will be available to all players. If you haven't completed the first campaign, you will be able to complete both sets of objectives at the same time. After the release of Update 1.1, we plan to gradually open operations: the first one will be available immediately, then the second one will appear for those who completed it, and the third one will appear some time after the release.

"Second Front" is a new challenge for your gaming skills. In three operations of this campaign, personal combat missions will have different set conditions:

  • First operation: you need to fulfill a certain condition for unlimited amount battles (for example, inflict 10,000 damage over any number of battles). The tasks are cumulative and will require diligence.
  • The second operation: it is necessary to fulfill a certain condition in one battle. Very similar to the tasks from the first campaign: you have to show how cool you can be in one battle.
  • Third operation: stability is a sign of mastery. You will have to show a consistent result in a series of battles (for example, maintain a certain average damage in ten battles in a row).

There are no strict restrictions on vehicle classes in the new Personal Missions campaign. Instead, national associations will appear, on whose vehicles you need to complete tasks - one chain (15 tasks) per operation for each of them. There are four in total:

  • Union: USSR and China.
  • Block: Germany and Japan.
  • Alliance: USA, UK and Poland.
  • Coalition: France, Sweden, Czechoslovakia and Italy.

As part of the Second Front, three completely new vehicles with unique features will be rewarded. Here they are:

British Tier VI Tank Destroyers Excalibur

A machine created as part of a British project, collectively known as "Beetles" due to the unusual shape of the hull.

You will receive not only these cars, but also other in-game items, as well as a female crew.

You can track the progress of tasks right in battle using the key Tab or N. This feature will only be available for new tasks within the Second Front, but we plan to add this feature to the first campaign as well.

We will tell you more about the "Second Front" in a separate article.

New cards

Minsk

The map is at the stage of final optimization and improvements. There may be performance issues with this card.

As you know, Minsk is a special city for Wargaming, because the company was founded here. On the map, we recreated the city center of the early 1970s, changing a few things for the convenience of the gameplay. If you have visited Minsk, you will recognize many places right away. If not, just admire the city skyline and immerse yourself in the past of the city!

Studzianki

This map is not based on any particular historical place. It was created based on the battle of Studzianki and combines open spaces and confrontation points. On the location you will find wide fields, a lot of vegetation, small village buildings centered around a tall church. The central point of the map is a small brick factory, which will become an important strategic point during the battle.

Changes on current maps

Calm

Many positions (including the aircraft carrier and serpentine road) have been reworked. The battles on this map will become more fair.

Siegfried line

The positions of the northern team are fortified on the map. Many points are reinforced with additional stones. The landscape has also changed.

mines

The map needed a rebalance as it gave the northern team a significant advantage: the left flank gave them better and faster access to the central island. Using heatmaps and statistics, we made this location more balanced and fair to the south team.

Provinces

Now only Tier IV-VII vehicles will be able to fight on this map. With minor modifications to help the southern team, the bulk of the changes should provide cover from fire in different positions.

industrial zone

The map has been redesigned in HD quality, and its size has increased from 800x800 to 1000x1000 m. Changes have also been made that will improve game process for all types of technology. In addition, the eastern part of the map has been completely redesigned.

Before the release of Update 1.1, we will publish a separate article with detailed information about the changes on each map.

Polish branch of technology

FROM Polish card Polish tanks will also appear in the game. It's time to get to know new branch vehicles: ten vehicles are ready to be tested in combat!

We decided to add this nation as a sign of respect for the dedication and courage of the Polish people during the two world wars, when the territory of Poland was at the very center of conflicts.

The branch will start with LT at low levels, continue with ST at medium levels, and end with heavy tanks at high levels. Come into the game and test Polish vehicles in battle!

    Update 1.3's first public test has begun, which includes significant changes to personal combat missions, map changes, and more. Go!

    Appearance of technology

    In update 1.3, large decals will be added in the vehicle appearance section, which you will find in a new tab (see below). With their help, you can add even more personality to your car. Rate new opportunity and take advantage of it!

    Note: the cost of decals on the general test is equal to 1 . The final cost will be closer to the release of 1.3.

    A whole set will be available — up to 40 original decals (both historical and non-historical) that you can apply to Tier VIII premium vehicles and all Tier X vehicles. A maximum of two slots per card type will be available for applying decals, and decal size is subject to change.

    Personal combat missions

    Over the course of several updates after the release of The Second Front, we continued to improve combat missions based on statistics and your feedback. Version 1.3 will be no exception. The first thing that will be improved in this update is the LBZ interface, the elements of which will become clearer and more noticeable.

    The conditions of the tasks of the "Second Front" will also be slightly adjusted. In addition, we will be making a major change to the first campaign. All "platoon" tasks will no longer be such, and their conditions will be adjusted so that they can be easily completed by playing "solo".

    Award cars for completing LBZ

    Two award-winning vehicles for completing LBZ: T-55A and Object 260 will receive a number of minor improvements. You will find detailed information in a separate article about LBZ, which will soon appear on the portal.

    New map: "Orlovsky ledge»

    We continue to work on pitched battle» and follow the statistics on this type of battle and its capabilities, as well as your feedback. It's time to test new map, which depicts an area typical of the central regions of the USSR (Belgorod-Kursk-Orel) in 1943. We are waiting for your feedback on the map itself and on the mode as a whole.

    Map Changes

    The update wouldn't be complete without map changes. This time, the edits will affect four locations.

    Himmelsdorf

    When leaving the hill, an intermediate cover has been added, which will make it possible to take additional positions for firing at the enemy. Also, to make shooting easier, decorative vegetation that had no game value was removed.

    For the top team, the departure from behind the corner of the house at the beginning of the "banana" has changed: now it is more convenient and safe for firing.

    The top team will get additional cover for the siding towards the railway tracks: the house with loopholes has been moved to the side to increase the safety of the sidings and increase the tactical significance of this position. Now it will become more convenient for firing at the enemy.

    industrial zone

    Houses have been added that will be used as intermediate shelters during the development of an attack from hangars on positions for tank destroyers.

    To increase the comfort of combat operations, the location of rubble heaps in the area of ​​​​the small hangar, which is controlled by the upper base, has been adjusted.

    In this part of the map, a house has been added and the lowland has been removed. This will balance the position with the similar position of the bottom base team.

    Slightly changed the location of the coal piles in order to improve protection against shooting from the central hangar.

    Changes have been made to the location of bushes and metal pipes in the alley in order to balance the teams in this direction.

    Changed the angle of the slope of the hill to reduce the possibility of shooting through the passage between the large and small hangars.

    Mannerheim line

    On the "balcony" for the team from the top base, improved defensive positions: the number of possible shots from the center of the map has been reduced.

    The pillbox located at this point on the map has been removed. Now the entrance to the "balcony", located on the upper base, will be more convenient.

    The intermediate defensive position has been made more comfortable: the terrain has been leveled, the stone has been enlarged, and bushes have been added as additional cover.

    Added additional bushes for firing from camouflaged positions.

    An intermediate defensive position has been added not far from the positions for tank destroyers from the upper base in case the enemy seizes control over the coast.

    The position to control the entrance to the base has become more convenient, which increases the defensive capabilities in case of loss of control over the coast.

    Fisherman's bay

    Covered entrances to the city for each of the teams: now getting to urban areas will become safer thanks to a change in the terrain and the addition of new shelters that will hide vehicles from early detection. Also, to prevent early destruction of vehicles in battle, the spawn locations of vehicles at the beginning of the battle will be moved closer to the red line.

    In the outskirts of the city, which are under the control of the upper team at the beginning of the battle, the defensive positions have been improved: crossfire from the side of the upper city will be closed, which will allow you to focus on holding back the forces of the enemy attacking the city.

    New buildings will appear in the eastern part of the central village. They will serve as a shelter from detection and shooting for vehicles heading to the city, and will also allow safer movement from the village to the city.

    In the city, between the houses, the shots from the side of the village are partially closed. This will allow the attacking team to more actively approach the enemy position without fear of crosses from the center of the map.

    Vegetation was removed in the central part of the field for both teams, which served as additional cover for vehicles conducting a passive battle from the center of the map. Additional cover was added for the attacking team when developing an attack from the city to the base capture circle.

    AI-controlled vehicles (only with the launch of the second public test 1.3)

    At each general test in all regions, artificial intelligence-controlled vehicles (bots) will be added. As in the Public Test of Update 1.2, they will appear on certain maps and vehicles I-V levels. Don't worry, you'll always know when you're playing with bots: their nicknames will start and end with a colon ":", and a special patch will be displayed next to the nicknames.

    Testing artificial intelligence on the server, we will be able to create more game modes against it, similar to the "Dark Front". Soon bots will be added to the South American server of the NA region, as well as to the Australian server, which should solve the problem of a long wait for a battle at low levels.

    These changes will not affect servers in the EU, RU, APAC regions (except Australia) and NA servers in the USA.

    Tech levels I-V

    Maximum number of bots in a team
    Waiting time: 20 seconds before the balancer adds AI controlled vehicles to the battle
