Wargaming releases a new patch for World of Tanks approximately every two to three months. Last on this moment(September 2014) Update 9.2 was released on July 29, 2014. Less than two months later, Wargaming released a new patch 9.3. Patch 9.3 testing is in full swing. Players of the RU-cluster can try out "fresh" light tanks in battle, as well as experience the new "punitive system" on themselves. In addition, the update will have interesting advantages for premium tanks, deteriorate the characteristics of a couple of fun vehicles (British ACS FV304, American tank destroyer M18), and also remove the popular KV-1S from the game. Rather, this Tier 6 supertank will be divided into 2 tanks, as it once was with a conventional KV. But every time a patch is released, players have to update the game. How to update World of Tanks and do it right?
Basically, there are two ways to update the World of Tanks game:
- through the game launcher;
- with help special file client.patch.download.
Let's analyze both methods and decide how best to update the game.
True, for a start it is worth saying that all updates must be downloaded only from the official site 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. Several patches ago, the game was updated in another way: the patch was downloaded as a regular exe-file and installed over the client. Wargaming refused this update method, as the subsequent conversion of game files took great amount time, and after installing the exe-shnik the game client often "crashed".
So, if a new patch has been released, you can update the client as follows: start the game launcher and wait for the files to download.
Launcher will automatically download all the necessary files and install the update.
Updates can be up to three gigabytes. So, if you have a slow internet connection, downloading updates for the game will take a long time. In this case, 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_client.patch.download" and copy it into a special folder of the game client. You can get a link to download this file on 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 located under the C: / Games / World_of_Tanks path. 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 turn off the firewall and antivirus, as well as all programs that consume the Internet in "unlimited quantities" - torrent clients and downloaders. The fewer programs will load the Internet channel, the faster you will update the client. As for the time of installing new updates, it all depends on their size and the "hardware" of your computer. Sometimes the installation can take up to half an hour.
Several recent years multiplayer online game"World of Tanks" (WOT), "World of Tanks", has taken and confidently holds the leading positions of the most massive and popular game not only in Russian-speaking countries, but also among tens of millions of fans around the world. Already very few people do not know, or at least have not heard about this game in the endless expanse of the Internet on the whole planet. Even on television, more and more airtime is given to this game, both in advertising blocks that cost easy money, and in various programs and reports dedicated to leisure, education and information technology.
Release date - 9.21 WOT update
What is the success of such popularity of this game, developed by a Belarusian studio more than six years ago, which is already a venerable age for any IT-technology products?
The secret of success, as always, is in continuous movement and development, the key to which is every last update of World of Tanks, and there are not dozens or even hundreds of them since the inception of the game. Back in the late spring of this year, an updated version 9.15 was presented and made available to a multimillion audience, but already in early September, version 9.16 with a more informative and flexible interface presented its new features.
This version allows you to raise the fun of the game to a new quality level, further bringing virtual reality games to the sensations of a real battle of armored vehicles and a real battle of numerous tank units. At the same time, the improved interface has accelerated access to necessary information to interact with other players and real assessment the condition of your tank.
These improvements significantly increased the ability of a tank to conduct combat without expensive modifications (mods), which also require a significant amount of time due to labor intensity.
For example, in the interface of combat missions, entry points (tasks) are presented both for the entire combat unit and for a specific tank, which greatly improves the understanding and effectiveness of battle tactics and the coordination of all armored vehicles.
There are 3 important parameters of the damage inflicted by the player to the enemy. The combat effectiveness tape has been expanded and detailed. The indicators of the firing of the player's car have been expanded and new indicators have been introduced. The statistics indicators have been expanded, and many more features have been added. Plus, the ability to customize all these new functions is provided.
And finally, plus everything, the last update of World of Tanks of the next version 9.17 has already been announced and will be available very soon, which will more and more delight and captivate all fans of this game with new features and effects. All success in the game!
The first patch has been released on the Sandbox server in World of Tanks! Revision of mechanics, changes in performance characteristics and more.
Sandbox, changelog 1.0.3
Description of changes 1.0.3
Artillery:
The stun from an ACS consists of two components: the base stun time, which depends on the characteristics of the projectile, and the additional time, which depends on the damage dealt. We changed how the base stun time works, and its duration has increased slightly, and the additional stun time has been slightly reduced - now the stun is more dependent on the characteristics of the projectile and is more predictable.
- The negative effect of stunning on turret rotation speed and gun aiming time has slightly increased.
- A stun lasting less than three seconds is not applied to the tank.
The Conqueror Gun Carriage was similar in combat behavior to the T92. To increase the difference in tank behavior, the following changes were made:
* Aiming time of B.L. 9.2-in. Howitzer Mk. II gun from 6.5 s to 6.6 s
* Reload time for B.L. 9.2-in. Howitzer Mk. II gun from 55 to 59 s
* Dispersion of B.L. 9.2-in. Howitzer Mk. II gun when turning the barrel by 40%.
* Armor penetration of the HE Mk. 18 guns B.L. 9.2-in. Howitzer Mk. II gun from 47 to 46 mm
Three representatives of the SPG class have been slightly improved to increase their combat effectiveness. We're still looking for the perfect balance of damage and stun for SPGs.
* Aiming time of the 21 cm Mörser 18/2 gun for the G.W. E 100 gun from 5.5 s to 5.2 s
* Reload time of the 21 cm Mörser 18/2 gun for the G.W. E 100 changed from 45 s to 43 s
* Reload time of the 240 mm Howitzer M1 gun for the T92 turret changed from 55 s to 54 s.
Bat.-Châtillon 155 58:
* Reload time of the Canon de 155 mm gun for the Batignolles-Châtillon 155 mle. 58 gun from 60 s to 55 s.
* Traverse speed of the Batignolles-Châtillon turret 155 mle. 58 gun from 8 to 7 deg / s.
Tanks:
The following vehicles showed excessive combat effectiveness, so their parameters were changed.
T57 Heavy Tank:
* Reload time of the 120 mm Gun T179 for the T169 turret increased from 28 to 35 s.
* Changed penetration of the AP-T M358 shell for 120 mm Gun T179 from 290 mm to 270 mm.
* Changed penetration of the HEAT-T M469 shell for 120 mm Gun T179 from 315 mm to 300 mm.
AMX 50 Foch (155):
* Dispersion on the move with the AMX 50 Foch (155) suspension increased by 25%.
* Dispersion on hull traverse of the AMX 50 Foch (155) suspension increased by 25%.
* The reload time of the 120 mm AC SA46 gun for the AMX 50 Foch (155) turret has been increased from 23 to 30 s.
The vehicles listed below had insufficient combat effectiveness, so their parameters were improved.
* Suspension traverse speed AMX 50 B increased from 20 to 28 deg / s.
* Traverse speed of the AMX 50 B turret increased from 24 to 28 deg / s.
- "Object 263":
* The dispersion of the gun during movement of the "Object 263" suspension is reduced by 25%.
* Dispersion on hull traverse of the "Object 263" suspension decreased by 25%.
* The aiming time of the 130 mm S-70A gun for the "Object 263" turret has been reduced from 2.5 to 2.2 s.
* The dispersion of the 130 mm C-70A gun when the barrel is turned is reduced by 50%.
* Aiming time of the 120 mm Gun L1A1 for the FV215 turret decreased from 2.5 to 2 s.
* Reload time of the 120 mm Gun L1A1 for the FV215 turret decreased from 10.5 s to 9 s.
* Dispersion of 120 mm Gun L1A1 on turret traverse decreased by 43%.
Bat.-Châtillon 25 t: in one of the previous iterations, one shell was taken from the tank from the drum. This is due to the fact that even with the reduction in one-time damage, the potential damage per drum remained high due to the revision of the hit points of many vehicles. All subsequent changes to this car are due to the search for a new, comfortable gameplay niche for the players.
* Aiming time for 105 mm mle. 57 (D. 1504) for the Batignolles-Châtillon 25 t turret changed from 2.2 s to 1.9 s.

* Reload time of the 120mm AT Gun M58E1 for the T110E3 turret decreased from 10.6 s to 9.3 s.
T-54 lightweight: Since the traverse speed of the tank in version 1.0.2 made it difficult to move the vehicle, leading to drifts, we made the speed control more comfortable.
* Traverse speed of the chassis T-54 obl. variant decreased from 78 to 70 deg / s.
* Traverse speed of the chassis T-54 obl. enhanced version decreased from 78 to 70 deg / s.

Tanks in update 1.3
The main work in World of Tanks today is in the area of expanding the functionality to change the appearance of tanks. Update 1.3 kicks off a long and challenging journey to personalize vehicles in the game.
Return of the T-50-2 tank to World of Tanks
The sensation of update 1.3 will be the return to the game of the legendary Soviet tank T-50-2. At one time, when the T-50-2 was removed from World of Tanks, it turned into a big wave for the creators of the game. negative reviews... But then the developers did not listen to the opinion of the gaming community and still removed the tank. And now, a few years later, the tank returns. So far, only for the supertest.
We are waiting for a "firefly" based in patch 1.4 or 1.5. The likelihood that the tank will be added to the 5th level is negligible. Most likely, he will receive the status of a tank of level 10 or 7 as a last resort. The developers plan to keep the characteristics of the T-50-2, which it had earlier.
Decals in World of Tanks
The new patch 1.3 will add large decals to the game for all tier 10 vehicles and tier 8 premium tanks. To select a decal, you need to enter the "Decals" tank appearance menu and go to the last tab below.

World of Tanks version 1.0 was released today, March 20, 2018. What changes have occurred in the game?
Changes to graphics in WOT 1.0
First of all, this is the new Core graphics engine instead of the old BigWorld. The main goal introducing its engine for World of Tanks is an attempt to reduce the operating costs and costs associated with renting a BigWorld license from an Australian developer. What awaits players in the new World of Tanks 1.0?
The main graphics change will be the ability to improve detail and performance. World of Tanks Core allows you to increase the number of triangles for each texture as much as needed by a specific user's computer. The more powerful the PC, the more realistic World of Tanks will be. At the same time, performance will not be overloaded due to the use of optimization in the Core engine.
How 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 effect will remain at low resolution. This will significantly reduce resource consumption and add smoothness in the movement of the tank, remove lags due to the lack of performance of the graphics adapter on average PCs. Most of the 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 the sheen of metal that it already has.
