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 (9.18_test3) installed, then when you start 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 to a folder containing test client files previous versions, may lead to technical problems.
Run the installed test version.
Only those players who registered in World of Tanks before 23:59 (UTC) on April 28, 2017 can take part in the test.

List of changes for the first public test 9.19:

The "Company battle" mode has been removed from the game.
Skills “Combat Brotherhood” and “ Fighting girlfriends” will work in mixed crews.
Added new mode- Ranked battles
reworked combat missions:
As part of the first iteration of the reworking of combat missions, the visual and functional part of the combat missions and promotions window was significantly changed.

A new item "Combat missions" has appeared in the Garage, through which you can get to the corresponding screen. Combat missions are conditionally divided into three sections: strategic, tactical, as well as tasks for the selected vehicle.

Strategic goals include tasks that require significant effort (for example, marathons).

Tactical tasks include those that can be combined into certain groups according to their meaning (for example, daily combat missions, combat training, etc.).

Each task is displayed as a tile, and all of them are conveniently sorted - the most priority ones are placed first. A detailed description of each task can be seen by expanding the tile. Thanks to the new representation of tasks in the Hangar interface, it will be much easier for you to understand them!

Various promotions are constantly taking place in the game - in most of them, prices for vehicles, equipment, transfer of experience and much more are reduced. And now stocks are available from the "Shop" menu item. Each promotion is presented in the form of a tile with detailed description the item on which the discount is valid, the discount amount and other information. All tiles are interactive - by clicking on any of them, you can use the promotion offer directly in the game client.
Clan management changes:
In the new version, the possibilities for managing the clan will expand. Now, without leaving the game client, it will be possible to:
- distribute gold from the clan treasury;
- change the positions of clan players;
- transfer control of the clan;
- view extended statistics on clan players.

Stronghold Improvements 1.6:
The following medals, which were issued for activities in the Stronghold before version 9.17.1, have been moved to the Special category:
- "Warrior";
- "For decisive battles";
- "Conqueror";
- "Crusher of fortresses";
- "Counterstrike".

Voice Changes: Introduced female voice acting for all nations. Instead of the old version of the "national" voice acting in the settings window, you can now select the "commander" voice acting. The choice of "commander" voice acting makes voice notifications correspond 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 cars have been reworked 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

Tech changes:
- Change in the German tech tree: Added tank for supertesters: Tiger 131
- Change in the Chinese tech tree: Tanks added for supertesters - WZ-120-1G FT, WZ-120G FT
- Change in the USSR tech tree: Added tank for supertesters: T-103
- Change in the US tech tree: M4A3E8 Sherman - The gun mantlet armor has been improved. M4A3E8 Fury - The gun mantlet armor has been improved. M4A3E2 Sherman Jumbo - increased gun mantlet armor

And finally, about ranked battles:

The Public Test server has stopped.

Note!

Fixed an issue that caused the FPS, after which the central processor was loaded up to 100% and the game closed spontaneously.
Fixed other technical bugs.

Started the first general test Update 1.3, which includes significant changes to personal combat missions, map changes, and more. Go!

Appearance of technology

In update 1.3 in the section appearance technique, large decals will be added, 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".

And finally, now you will be able to track progress on all tasks, and not just on the Second Front LBZ, as before. In the near future we will publish a separate article dedicated to LBZ changes- follow the news.

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 Grand Battle and keep track of 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 the entrances to the city for each of the teams: now getting to the urban area 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, defensive positions have been improved: crossfire from the side of the upper city will be closed, which will allow you to focus on containing 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 into 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 engaged in passive combat 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 with the 1.2 Public Test, they will spawn on certain maps and technique 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 long waits for battles 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
How to distinguish:	Colon (":") at the beginning and end of the nickname and a special patch
Cards:	"Karelia", "Prokhorovka", "Mines", "Redshire", "Steppes", "Fishing Bay", "Ensk", "Lasville", "Ruinberg", "Murovanka", "Erlenberg", "Siegfried Line", "Cliff", "Sandy River", "El Halluf", "Airfield", "Pass", "Mannerheim Line", "Calm", "Quiet Coast", "Overlord"

Full changelog

Changes in personal combat missions

Rebalanced missions for Operation Excalibur.
Now, for the first campaign of personal combat missions, you can also track the progress of completing missions in battle.
Added more explicit notifications when a task from the third operation of the Second Front campaign fails after a battle.
All platoon conditions have been removed from the Long-Awaited Reinforcements campaign. All combat missions are now personal. These tasks have been simplified.
Improved display of all tasks with compound conditions like "Perform X or Y".
Added a notification that you need to complete the main condition of the task in order to progress in the additional one.
Improved information window "Description and tips" in task cards.

Cards

Search and filters have been added to the Warehouse: now you can quickly find the item you need.
The store is running faster.

Fixes and improvements

Fixed a bug where the non-penetration of an HE shell when it was damaged was displayed as armor penetration. Now it's easier to understand whether the HE shell did full damage with penetration or just exploded on the armor. This edit will affect the performance of combat missions in which there is a condition to break through the armor.
Based on the previous paragraph, the description of the "Armor Piercer" award has been adjusted.

Only those players who registered in World of Tanks before October 29, 23:59 (Moscow time) can participate in the test.

Due to the large number of tankers on the test server, there is a restriction on the entry of users. All new players who wish to participate in the testing of the update will be queued and will be able to join the server when it becomes free.
If the user changed the password after October 29 23:59 (UTC), authorization on the test server will be available only with the password that was used before the specified time.

Payments on the test server are not made.
This testing does not increase the earnings of experience and credits.
Achievements on the test server will not be transferred to the main server.
During testing of version 1.3 on the test servers, scheduled technical work is going on (25 minutes on each server starting from 07:00 (Moscow time)).
Please note: the same rules apply on the test server as on the main gaming server. Consequently, there are also penalties for violating these rules in accordance with the License Agreement.
The User Support Center does not review applications related to the Common Test.
We remind you that the most reliable way to download the World of Tanks client, as well as its test versions and updates, is on the official game portal. By downloading the 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.

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" new version client.

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).

How it works?

Consider what a test server is. In principle, this is a virtual resource where a modified copy of the game is located. The main purpose is to test and verify the capabilities of any innovations before including them in the main patch.
WG developers get access to test domains first. Then super-testers are connected to search for shortcomings and bugs. After the fix, additional testing is carried out with the maximum load of the game client.

To do this, a copy of the game is "uploaded" to a backup domain, where anyone can get. After that, the detected flaws are again eliminated, after which changes are made to the main game client.

How to become a member of the WoT test?

Anyone can take part in testing the game. To do this, you need to download the installer with version 1.6 After that, the installer will prompt the user to download a test game client. After the download is complete, a new WORLD of TANKS folder is created on the desktop, with a directory of graphics settings specified by the player.
