The best replays in world of tanks. How replays are selected

2 years and 4 months ago Comments: 1


Hello everyone, dear friends! Kirill Oreshkin and the “Best Replays of the Week” program are with you! Today we will meet a pair of impenetrable Mouses, see survival hide and seek and see how professional fireflies work. And don’t forget that on Saturday you can listen to the players themselves on Wargaming FM radio. And we, according to tradition, will start with a warm-up!

Video

Let's start warming up without haste, with the player Anarchist94 on Mouse. At the very beginning of the battle, he confidently declared: “I’m going to the center. Keep pushing until they kill me.” Still would. The map is Lasville, the art is not, the battle is with nines, and the LBZ-15 will not make itself. Well, he went. About halfway through, he dug in behind a stone and began to absorb. And not only absorb, but also snap at the city. Moreover, the central passage was blocked and illuminated. And although the allies pushed through the city, three people approached the base at once from the gorge. I had to change plans a little, return to the circle and carefully click on the impudent ones - Grill, Mouse and E100. Finally, you can return to your native stone. Along the way, we managed to absorb a little more on the LBZ, but in the end the enemy was left alone. And that one with 5 units of strength. In order not to take another risk, our hero switched to landmines and ended the battle. In the end, the man said it, the man did it. He dealt 8 thousand, blocked 14 - that was also enough for the LBZ. We continue to warm up on Winterberg with player Stryker56 on Leopard 1. The battle went smoothly, our hero managed to show himself well, shot a ton of damage and took 3 kills. The only thing that was a little sad was that it had 143 hit points, and that after the fourth enemy was destroyed, Object 140 was dangerously close. But it’s not enough to get close - you still have to hit it. And the Soviet ST had difficulties with this. The stupid house stubbornly sheltered the German - no matter how you look at it. The object was sure that the difference in strength was too great, so it persistently circled with our hero, hoping for one confident shot. It was not possible to do anything - the Leopard snapped so desperately that it accidentally dismantled the enemy STS. But there is also the IS-7! Will he really risk playing carousel with the champion of the round-robin races of this yard? And... took a risk! But if even the nimble Object failed, then what chances does the IS have? Maybe changing your home will improve your chances? The answer is no. The leopard completely disappeared from view and drove up to the strand from behind. An unexpected surprise in the stern - and Leo pulls out an impossible victory. Let's move on. Our warm-up is completed by player Nessor on . Storming the Siegfried Line is no easy task. And our hero’s team quickly proves this. After ten minutes of battle, only the KV-5 survived from the attackers. With three frags and six enemies. But despair is not about him. Our hero confidently went in search of adventure and found Pinocchio. While I was breaking the art, the rest came along. Trouble? Service! You won't have to look for them all over the map! The enemies tried in every way - one by one, all at once, from behind, from the side - but still they died faster than the Soviet heavy fell apart. Only FV207 managed to escape from the merciless extermination. And even then - not for long. The battered and very warlike KV-5 also took the self-propelled gun. It’s just a pity that I lost the radio operator... And that’s all with the warm-up, let’s move on to the nominations!

Scout

This week's scout was the player Insidious Shmoo on a T-54 lightweight. In the battle on Prokhorovka, light often decides the outcome of the battle, so our hero did not make rash breakthroughs to the rear and did not even climb the hill. He returned to the central hill and began to carefully lean out in search of enemies in the alley. He stuck his head out and back, until he got it like this nineties guy. Another circle - and the unexpectedly quick Tortoise appeared in the alley. The firefly threw it at the turtle for good measure and retreated again. Meanwhile, the allies shot the Frenchman who appeared in the bushes, and then the British calmed down. In order not to run into trouble, the fifty-four went to the other flank - reconnaissance there would also not be superfluous. But still, the most juice for the firefly is always in the alley. The next drive - and a broken IS-4 and a fresh E100 lit up on the radar. But the four didn’t last long, and Type 4 Heavy also got caught in the spotlight. Another circle - and the allies again have somewhere to shoot. The Japanese leaves the spot straight into the hangar. Smack and a large piece fell off. Whoosh - a little more... Whoosh - and the German joined all the other heavy men in the alley. But there are still PTs left. And here they are, by the way! YagdPZ E100 melted before our eyes. A moment later, Grill also set sail. Batchat rushed after the daring firefly, but he was unable to either save the artu or avenge it. The British large-caliber log thrower did not leave the Frenchman a single chance. Victory! Thanks to clear and regular reconnaissance, our hero’s team finished the battle with a score of 15-5. And the Insidious Shmoo himself, for his perseverance, patience and 14 thousand flash damage, earned the title of this week’s Scout. And gold for an excellent job. The winner in the category “Excellence of the Week” was a player with the nickname Zelas 2112 on . Christmas tree at Westfield? And even in a battle with blind people of the sixth level? It’s a sin not to shine! And our hero went to the bushes on the eastern hill, where he immediately found the enemy Leopard. Properly using camouflage, a stereo scope and poor visibility of opponents, the firefly even managed to shoot covertly from the bushes. The M8A1 turned out to be too daring, and the T-28 followed it into the hangar. It's time to push. The leopard didn’t really put up any resistance, and neither did the T-34-85. Only now the Allies gave up their entire left flank, and the base was left unprotected. We need to sort it out. The American STshka did not expect an ambush and was left smoking in an open field. But T67 managed to get pretty annoying in the end - Yolka only had 25 units of strength left. By the way, did I mention that the Allies only gave up their left flank? Forget it! There is no one left on the team at all! And now Yolka faced a difficult task - to recapture the base from the Japanese O-I. By oneself. Under fire from three artillery destroyers. A few maneuvers, a couple of stealth shots and getting to close range. The heavy didn’t even understand what happened, and our firefly continued to circle around the base in search of the remaining opponents. I drove higher, looked further away - and there was M4A3E2. A shot - and immediately change position - the artillery could destroy the unfinished Frenchman even with a cover. Second approach... Oh, and here comes the unexpected M44. Land mines were exploding all around, but our hero quickly and confidently drove the self-propelled gun to the rear and made the seventh frag. Now is definitely the time to break the hold. The American thought that he was hiding, but that was not the case. A shot, another change of position - and the enemies were left with only art. For a firefly, this is usually a matter of technique, but I didn’t want to take any more risks in such a situation. Our hero chose the most winding route, miraculously avoided shelling and ended up at the enemy base. He did not rush and opened fire only when both self-propelled guns lit up. Two clear shots – victory! In an extremely intense battle, Zelas 2112 showed miracles of composure and used all the capabilities of the nimble and invisible tree to the maximum. He managed to shine the light, shoot 10 kills, save the base, outwit the artillery, and almost single-handedly decided the outcome of the battle. For this - an Excellence medal and a little gold. Congratulations!

Steel wall

This week's winner of the Steel Wall category is Z Kurt Cobain on Mouse. To his great joy, there was no artillery in this battle on the Fire Arc. Therefore, Mouse fearlessly went to hold the slide and throw at the invaders. Along the way, the German made several successful shots, but at the top of the hill he encountered serious resistance. In order not to fall apart prematurely under fire, our hero began to play from the relief and diamond. At first everything went well, but the lonely Mouse on the outskirts was too tempting for the opponents. They flew from all sides. Soon the radio operator and driver were gone, and the tanks and caterpillars were damaged. But for now there was enough strength, and we managed to take the enemy E-100. It's not that bad! The ricochets had already begun to merge into a ringing melody, but our hero did not lose composure. A well-aimed shot – minus Leopard. Descent from the mountain - and a gift was sent to E-fifth from afar. The next client is Grill Sr. An annoying ninety was discovered behind him, but Mouse decided not to risk it - he did not turn his sides and stern to more dangerous opponents. It was wiser to turn back and wait for the allies to help with the firefly. When the Frenchman stopped annoying, our hero entered into a duel with the nimble Skoda. The opponent received a shell on the side and tried to spin the Mouse, but did not take into account that the difference in mass and armor was too great. Several successful turns of the body - and the sloppy ST fell apart from the collisions. Going to the base alone, straight into encirclement, is not a good idea. The German posted himself behind the skeleton of the Leopard and began to wait. Neither team had a reliable way to win; the matter had to be decided by a fair three-on-one shootout. And although the opponents tried to attack from all sides, our hero made the most of his armor and cover - even the desperate move of the E-100 ended in nothing. There are only a few seconds left until the end of the battle. Our hero could no longer win in principle. The main thing is not to give up victory, to pull out, to survive. Last moments... Survived. Mouse remained standing as an impregnable colossus. And The Kurt Cobain, for his tenacity, excellent knowledge of the machine, non-suicide and 23 thousand blocked damage, receives the title of this week's Steel Wall. And gold to boot.

Defender

This week's Defender title went to a player with the nickname Propeller 328 on the MT-25. In this battle in the Sacred Valley, our hero decided to look around first and occupied a convenient hill on the left flank. He even managed to grab a nimble anti-tank gun, but other opponents were in no hurry to get into the passage. It was decided that we must take the initiative into our own hands. Our hero drove the same self-propelled gun to the rear and, together with his allies, finished what he started. The enemy Bishop was too slow to react even by art standards. In the end, he shot somewhere, but paid for it with his life. And MT-25 decided not to push ahead and first resolve issues in the rear. Under the cover of an AT-15A, the firefly, in a dashing maneuver, sent three enemies in a row into the hangar with several accurate shots. True, I had to give away a repair kit to restore the engine and lose most of the strength, but it was clearly worth it. To climb the E-25 head-on in such a state would be pure suicide, so our hero went to shoot down the capture. The frags aren't going anywhere. And here comes the self-propelled invader! A deft maneuver on the verge of death, going to the rear - and the enemy has no chance. The base has been saved for now. How are things going with the allies?.. In the sense of an ally. Having fun on the other side of the map. This means there is time to organize a raid on the rear. But before our hero could get to the art, he was the only one left on the team. The loneliness was brightened up by Lorraine and a quick German dumpling. Both turned out to be twisted and disassembled - like clockwork. Three more left. The long road to the rear of the home base ended with the discovery of a KV-2. It's a pity for the poor fellow... He was never able to look the danger in the face - it stubbornly stayed behind. The base is recaptured, it's time to change position. The agonizing minutes of waiting dragged on. Where will the enemy appear? Who will shine first? MT-25 circled the flank for a long time in search of survivors, but they were found already near the base. And again - no rash direct confrontations. Only cunning and maneuvers. A deft exit from an unexpected direction - and away we go. The armor miraculously held back the enemy shells and our hero quickly dismantled the Crusader. Without cover, the PT is not so dangerous, but you cannot relax. Careful detour - the main thing is not to accidentally crash on it - gusla and... It seems that's all! The AT-15A crew only had to drink tea while waiting to be sent to the hangar. And Propeller 328 calmly ends this battle with victory. For his confident defense of the base from three waves of invaders and the competent use of mobility and rate of fire, he receives the title of Defender of the Week and, of course, gold. Congratulations!

Warrior

This week's warrior is the player "Oh Sweet" at Object 252u "Defender". The battle at Winterberg at first seemed unremarkable. Our hero immediately went to a small town and on the way threw cucumbers into the KV-13, with fatal results. The T-34-85 and Bulldog also received gifts, and then the KV-2. Straight into the birdhouse. It's time to sort things out in the town itself. The T-150 and T-43 tried to unwind and surround the heavy mass, but too slowly - our hero finished off both of them and headed for the lights of the big city. There is fun, the sound of a siren and, behold, Cromwell is riding. But an unaccepted invitation from IS-3 to a party arrived. We'll accept it later. But the city is a city, and it’s still better to calm the SU-122-44 while there is an opportunity. Fifth frag. Ahead is the battle for the base. During the firefight, the capture was still broken down, but there were almost no allies left. Moreover, enemies began to surround us. Well, at least not everyone is looking at the minimap. They park in dangerous places and give away capture points for free. After a short resistance, the IS still went to the hangar, but the KV-85 immediately took revenge for it. A well-aimed hit deprived our hero of a fire extinguisher. However, this still did not save the KV-85. 7 frags, but it’s too early to rejoice - there is no one else left in the green team, and there are four opponents. Will they really leave the LT in capture and the three of them will go to surround the lone Defender? Oh, no, everything's fine. Here he is - Bulldog. At full speed he flew around the corner to fight with the terrible heavyweight. His cry of “NIBIRI WE’LL GET IT” echoed already in the hangar. However, the rest of the opponents did not even think about playing it safe. Everyone gathered to fight the Object. T-44 regretted this especially quickly, but Troika and T-34-85 decided that it would be better to suffer first. The heavyweights butted heads and exchanged shots with varying degrees of success. Through joint efforts, the opponents managed to drive our hero into a dead end, knock out his driver, bend the cannon and tear off the track. They bullied us as much as they could. But our guy is not so simple. He endured all this stoically and even deftly picked up the STshka. But then a new problem emerged. Our hero only has one shell left. And there were no guarantees that he would be able to implement it in the clinch. Well, careful aiming, shot!.. No. survived the hit. Well, that's it, all that remains is to wait for a couple of mercy shots from the enemy heavy and go to the hangar full of regrets... But for some reason the IS-3 was in no hurry to shoot. Does he really have nothing too? And such an intense fight will end with six minutes of standing before a draw? But it seems our hero decided to use the hidden potential of the car. That same secret weapon, not listed in the tank description. Yes, it is the button accordion behind the tower. Otherwise, I cannot explain why they both suddenly stopped butting heads and went to capture. It was definitely a dance battle challenge. And it was in a dance duel to the accordion that the fate of this battle was to be decided. The weights silently went into a circle. Our hero's first trick didn't work. But as soon as they accelerated a little more... Handbrake, blow, victory! 11 frags, a bunch of medals and a victory in the first and last Vinterberg dance battle earn “Oh Sweet” the title of this week’s Warrior! Keep the gold and the LRN medal!

Well, that's all for me. Remember that I expect even more cool fights from you. So good luck on the battlefields! Well, Kirill Oreshkin was with you. Thanks to all! Bye everyone!

Many of us like to watch the latest episodes of OSR or VBR, but not everyone knows how to send their own replay to OSR WoT. Next, we will understand in detail what and how to do.

What are OSR and FBR

First, let's figure out what these programs are:

  • - Best Replays of the Week - a weekly program with Kirill Oreshkin as the host, where gold is awarded to the most epic and challenging battles sent by players.
  • - The Great Belarusian Random is an analogue of the OSR, where users are rewarded with gold for the battles sent, but the main difference between this program is the battles accepted there - unusual jumps, falls, bugs and other non-standard moments. Recently, it has not been voiced by Oreshkin and is published in the “No comments” format.

Do you consider your successful fight to be a bend worthy of getting hit in wot? Do not rush!

How replays are selected

The Wargaming video department selects many replays sent to wotreplays for lrn and vbr, but 99%, according to Oreshkin himself, do not meet the requirements, or simply do not reach the title of the best.

In order to get into the LRN in world of tanks, you need to decide on the nominations:

  • Warm-up - a short episode with incredible luck, skill or a funny incident.
  • Warrior - awarded for the largest number of frags among the replays sent by the time the issue was created. If the number of frags matches, the skill level is taken into account.
  • Defender - awarded for a masterful game built on protecting one's own or neutral base. The capture can be lost repeatedly and from many tanks. Of particular advantage are replays where a successful capture of a base by the enemy could lead to defeat.
  • Invader - awarded for a beautiful, funny or skillfully executed capture of an enemy base. Replays where victory would be impossible without capturing the base receive special benefits.
  • Sniper - awarded for the most beautiful, accurate shot or series of shots. It is especially appreciated if the shot helped you get out of a difficult situation and the team achieve victory.
  • Support - issued for a victorious battle carried out by the player at the bottom of the list (the level of the combat vehicle is the minimum acceptable for this level of battles), and the player’s actions actually brought victory to the team.
  • Steel Wall - awarded to a player who used the advantage of his armor during the battle and thanks to this earned victory. The correct use of the terrain and placing the tank at the correct angle to the enemy counts. A large number of potential damage received will help to receive an award, but is not required for nomination.
  • Scout - awarded for the miracles of camouflage and detection, thanks to which your team was able to gain an advantage. What counts is choosing good positions, counteracting enemy light, and the ability to survive until the end of the battle.
  • Brothers in Arms - issued to a platoon of players who, with their competent play, led the team to victory. When choosing from several replays, the number of frags per platoon is taken into account, as well as the level of equipment at which the battle took place.
  • Armored Fist - awarded to a team of players that wins the “Team Battle” mode thanks to unusual tactics and/or the skill of individual fighters, while initially being in an “uncomfortable” situation.
  • Clan Wars - awarded to participants in battles in the "Clan Wars" mode for interesting and unusual tactics that led their team to victory. The more tanks needed to be used to apply the tactics, the better.
  • Itlichnik or Free nomination - non-standard replays that do not fit into any of the nominations or affect several nominations at once.

In order to get into the FBR wot, it is not necessary to accumulate incredible numbers of damage or frags, it is enough that something unusual happens in battle.

Do you still think that your replay should be sent to Kirill Oreshkin? Then read on.

How to prepare and send a replay to OSR and VBR

If you are still sure that you should submit a replay to the Best Replays of the Week, then you need to follow the instructions:


So, many are already playing the quiet game World of Tanks and enjoying it; the most meticulous ones have read the contents of our game website. The most interesting and discussed here are the best replays of the game (the corresponding section can be found in the main menu of the site).

You don't need to know English to understand that a replay is nothing more than a recording of the game. So, some advanced cyber tankers post reviews of the best episodes of the game on the Internet for others to review and discuss.

On the site you can see the best episodes of tank battles

One of the latest was the release of the best replays of the week World of Tanks 101. What is remarkable about it, everyone who is interested knows, but it would not be out of place to remind you that, based on the results of an official check, one of the players was temporarily blocked from their account due to the use of a cheat (a prohibited mod ).

If anyone hasn't watched it yet, take a moment and check out this video

Perhaps the release of the best World of Tanks 101 replays of the week will be instructive for those who like to use prohibited methods of combat. The World of Tanks administration's policy regarding prohibited modifications in the game can be found on the game's official forum.

For those who would like to record replays of their game, it will be interesting how to do this. Ask why this should be done? Just to save your best fights for the archive or in case of failure in a fight, view the fight from the outside and understand what went wrong, work on the mistakes.

In order to record your replays, you need to open the “Menu” in your account and in “Settings” find the “Record battles” section, and then select and mark what you need. To be able to open your replays in the WoT folder, you need to find the Replays folder. After opening this folder, right-click and select “properties”.

In the pop-up window, click “browse” and then double-click on the WorldofTanks.exe file. You must check the box next to “Use the selected program for all files of this type.” Perhaps there is already a checkmark there and you won’t have to do anything. Then just click OK. This is all. Now, if you need to view the replay, you need to open the battle recording while closing the game. Use all the game's features to win!

Problems with replays

No information about the fight

If you leave before the end of the battle, the replay is not completely recorded. You can view it, but you cannot download information about the results of the battle from it. And it is also impossible to check whether the results of the battle have been falsified. Therefore, information is not downloaded from such replays and they cannot participate in competitions. We don’t write videos for them either!

How to delete a replay?

Go to the replay page and click on the "CONTESTS/REPLAY MANAGEMENT" button. Please note that you cannot delete a replay sent to OSR or FBR NO COMMENTS programs if the replay has already been reviewed by the moderator.

The file is not loading

We are very meticulous about what is uploaded to our site. Therefore, you can only upload replay files and only if they are recorded correctly. Unfortunately, in the game World of Tanks there is a very difficult to detect and rarely reproduced bug, when even a replay recorded to the end turns out to be recorded incorrectly. This can be understood if the file size is significantly larger than 1 megabyte. Such replays cannot be uploaded to us either.

How can I watch a replay of an outdated version?
