Wargaming download test. Test server

Not so long ago, a new update was released for the World of Tanks game, which they dubbed the next nerf pt-sau. The new patch 0.9.2, in addition to the nerf of certain top-end cars, has brought a significant amount 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, then you 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 ordinary RU servers?

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

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

But why is everyone so eager to get to the test server? Firstly, in addition to acquaintance with the innovations, the player can play on any technique, since when entering the test server, in addition to his funds on the account (gold / silver), they are additionally allocated: 20 thousand gold, 100 million free experience and 100 million silver. Any player will envy such a supply of currency. Alas, all achievements and “money” are not transferred to ordinary 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 level 8 premium tanks at once. But experienced players have already “cut through” this situation. Many of them have a special second account for tests. It is from him that they prefer to play on test servers. And if there is not enough gold for premtank, 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 tank of level 10, the player can decide whether to download this branch to him 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 of database cutoff so that players who have changed passwords can get to the server, as well as the approximate time the server stops. You can find out in advance about the launch of the test from the corresponding section of the official website - http://worldoftanks.ru/en/news/pc-browser/1/.

To begin 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 start downloading, and this is at least 8.5 gigabytes. In this regard, before downloading and running the installer, free up space on the local disk.

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

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

General test

On December 3, the general update test 1.9.2 began. With its release, a new branch of US multi-role fighters will appear in the game. These machines differ from similar models of other nations in their excellent speed characteristics, high survivability and powerful shock weapons. The branch includes airplanes reflecting the development of US front-line aviation from the beginning of World War II to the 1950s and the war in Korea.

Also in the update, a lot of work was done on the balance of aircraft and weapons, the behavior of bots was improved, the interface of the Hangar and the training room was modified.

As usual, on the test server there are special rules for accruing experience, gold and credits, which will allow all participants in the general test to fill their hangars with fully explored aircraft and fly to them with plenty.

World of Tanks Test Server

When playing World of Tanks, we all repeatedly wondered which branch of tanks to download next, which premium tank to buy, what awaits us at the tenth level of a particular development tree, and so on. Even more similar questions arise for newcomers who have just come to tanks. And of course, all of us have repeatedly heard about the test server, which will somehow help us make a choice and answer all questions about pumping and choosing technology. So what is the World of Tanks test server, what are its advantages and how to get to it?

Test Server Overview

So, first of all, it’s worth understanding that the test server always opens a few weeks before the release of the game update. So the developers get a great way to check the new version of the game for all kinds of flaws, malfunctions, bugs and much more. After all, users playing on the World of Tanks test server may encounter similar problems in working capacity, if any, and write about it on the forum. Thus, you can avoid a lot of trouble when the update is launched on the main servers of World of Tanks. In addition, players have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with a number of upcoming innovations with their own eyes, to test new elements of the tested version.

However, the players found another application for the test - the ability to ride on various equipment, try out premium tanks and decide on a further plan for pumping or buying a particular car.

Why is this possible? Everything is very simple, on a test server each player is charged:
20 thousand game gold;
100 million free experience;
100 million loans.

Thanks to such generous “gifts,” you can pump any tank you are interested in in a few minutes and go to battle on it, in order to learn about its advantages and decide whether to go to it on your main account.

Regarding gold, it will be enough for a maximum of two premium tanks of the 8th level, but more often for one, so many create several accounts on the test server to try out several cars and choose the one that will then be bought on a “basis” and will be filled on her game currency and experience.

But remember, everything that you purchase on a test server will never go to your main account, because this is just a way to try out the upcoming update, decide on future goals, get an idea about a certain type of technology or dispel your misconceptions.

How to download and install a client to play on the World of Tanks test server

First of all, you need to wait until Wargaming starts work on the update. To do this, you just need to go to the official World of Tanks website a few times a day and view the news feed. As soon as the test client opens, the developers will certainly notify the players about this event on the main page of the site, and you can download the client for the game on the general World of Tanks test. Similar news looks like shown in the screenshot below.

When we started working on a new graphics engine, HD-cards and new sounds, we set a goal - to create such graphics and sound in the game so that when you go into battle, you are stunned and said: this is incredible! This game cannot be eight years old!

Today this moment has come. You can literally immerse yourself in exciting battles in realistic terrain thanks to updated HD-maps, atmospheric sounds of the environment and original music themes. And that's not all. We not only offer you a new gaming experience in World of Tanks 1.0, but also invite you to become part of these tremendous changes.
