Approximately once every two or three months, Wargaming releases new patch to World of Tanks. Last on this moment(September 2014) Update 9.2 was released on July 29, 2014. In less than two months, Wargaming has prepared a new patch 9.3. Update 9.3 testing is in full swing. RU-cluster players can try out “fresh” light tanks in battle, as well as experience the new “punitive system” for themselves. In addition, the update will bring interesting benefits to premium tanks, the characteristics of a couple of fun cars will deteriorate (British self-propelled guns FV304, american tank destroyer M18) and the popular KV-1S will be removed from the game. Rather, this level 6 supertank will be divided into 2 tanks, as it once was with the usual KV. But every time a patch is released, players have to update the game. How to update World of Tanks and do it right?

Strictly speaking, there are two ways to update the World of Tanks game:

  • through the game launcher;
  • using a special client.patch.download file.

Let's analyze both methods and decide how best to update the game.

True, for starters, it’s worth saying that all updates must be downloaded only from the official website of the game http://worldoftanks.ru. By downloading patches from other sites or torrents, you expose your game account to the risk of being "hijacked". A few patches ago, the game was updated in another way: the patch was downloaded as a regular exe file and installed on top of the client. Wargaming refused this method of updating, since the subsequent conversion game files took a huge amount of time, and after installing the exe-file, the game client often "failed".

So, if a new patch has been released, then you can update the client as follows: launch the game launcher and wait for the files to finish downloading.

The launcher will automatically download all the necessary files and install the update.

The volume of updates can be up to three gigabytes. So, if you have a slow Internet, downloading updates for the game will be delayed. At the same time, you have a choice: directly download the files of the new patch from the Wargaming server or use a torrent to update.

Another way to update the game client is as follows: you download a special file in the format "patch name_client.patch.download" and copy it to a special folder game client. You can get a link to download this file on the page of the official website of the game http://worldoftanks.ru/ru/content/guide/general/frequently_asked_questions/#ways_to_load .

After downloading the client.patch.download file, you need to copy it to the Updates directory, which is located along the path C:/Games/World_of_Tanks. After that, you need to launch the game launcher, and the updates will be automatically installed.

The answer to the question of how to update WoT has been received. It remains to remember a few useful tips. When updating the game client, it is better to disable the firewall and antivirus, as well as all programs that consume the Internet in an "unlimited amount" - torrent clients and downloaders. The fewer programs will load the Internet channel, the faster you will update the client. As for the installation time for new updates, it all depends on their volume and the hardware of your computer. Sometimes the installation can take up to half an hour.

  • Added the ability to simultaneously use the reserve of the office and the reserve of another building.
  • The capacity of all buildings has been increased from 10 prepared reserves to 1000.
  • Fixed incorrect operation of the office reserve when a combat mission was dropped again.

Maps and objects

Added new game cards

"Mittengard" (for the initial levels of battles) is a small map created specifically for the battles of the initial levels. Starting positions on the rocky slopes do not provide any cover, so the best tactic is to hastily occupy the city streets. Artillery is located on both sides of the city's cathedral - a breakthrough in this area will be a significant contribution to victory.

"Lost City" (for team fights) - As an esports arena, we offer a carefully balanced symmetrical mixed map created with the participation of leading players. The features of the map include the ability to fight in the center on several levels at once, skirmishing with a small group of enemy tanks while maintaining visual contact with his other forces. The discreet color palette and soft daylight are designed to provide maximum gaming comfort.

"Winterberg" - the map is completely identical to the well-known "Ruinberg", differing from it only by the time of year. The circular square in the western part of the city serves as a place for protracted positional battles. Concentric city streets are suitable for the gradual breaking of enemy defenses by heavily armored vehicles, and a long radial street will allow dagger fire at the enemy. The eastern area of ​​the map is quite open and quite suitable for medium tank maneuvers, but only if they control a small settlement in the middle of this zone.

Today, March 20, 2018, the World of Tanks update version 1.0 was released. What changes have taken place in the game?

Graphics changes in WOT 1.0

First of all, this is the new Core graphics engine instead of the old BigWorld. The main goal of introducing its own engine for World of Tanks is an attempt to reduce operating costs and costs associated with renting a BigWorld license from an Australian developer. What awaits the players new world of Tanks 1.0?

The main change in graphics will be the ability to increase detail and performance. World of Tanks Core allows you to increase the number of triangles for each texture as much as it is necessary for a particular user's computer. The more powerful the PC, the more realistic World of Tanks will be. At the same time, performance will not be excessively loaded due to the use of optimizations in the Core engine.

How the Core graphics engine works

The trees in the game will become a set of 3D screenshots, which will significantly save computer resources with high quality textures. Any fire effects will only be detailed externally, and the invisible area of ​​the effect will remain at low resolution. This will significantly reduce resource consumption and add smoothness to the movement of the tank, remove lags due to the lack of graphics adapter performance on medium PCs. Most graphics calculations will be done once in advance. Each time, the triangles will not be recalculated, and the Core engine will only display the reflections of surfaces, water, or metal sheen that it already has.
