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."

• Changes in voice acting: 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 – gun mantlet armor has been strengthened

And finally, about ranked battles:

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 previously had.

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 “recognized” 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.

Video review of general test 1.6

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!
