Replacing FV215b with Super Conqueror

One of the main changes in the update will be the transfer of the Tier 10 British heavy tank FV215b to promotional tanks. Instead, Super Conqueror will appear at level 10 of the British heavy tank branch in World of Tanks 9.20.1. We told you about replacing the FV215b with the Super Conqueror in World of Tanks plans for 2017. As you can see, the plan has been implemented.

Procedure for replacing FV215b with Super Conqueror

Important information: If you already have the FV215b tank in your hangar, then during the release of update 9.20.1 you will have a Super Conqueror tank at level 10, which you will receive completely free of charge.

The crew of the FV215b tank will be dropped off at the barracks and prepared for the Super Conqueror. Camouflage, equipment, equipment, emblems, inscriptions and shells will be moved to the warehouse, where you can use them in the future. Below are the characteristics of the Super Conqueror tank.

World of Tanks. General test of update 9.20. Update 9.20 is entering general testing. Battles in the “30 vs. 30” format, Chinese tank destroyers and vehicle rebalancing are waiting for you - we’ve already talked about it, and soon you will find other materials about the changes in version 9.20.
In the meantime, here’s all the latest and most interesting things regarding ranked battles. Read and don’t forget to share your opinions in a special topic on the forum. This will help us configure the update in more detail.

Ranked battles

The first beta season of ranked battles recently ended. We have analyzed all your feedback and want to make changes that should improve the gameplay in the second beta season. These are the ones we will test as part of the general test of update 9.20.

Changes to basic mechanics

One of the most discussed topics on the forum concerned the simplicity of the mode. The basic mechanics of matching players of equal skill worked, but reaching rank five was not a real challenge for experienced tankers.

We tried to fix this by changing the mechanics of obtaining chevrons and ranks. The number of ranks will remain the same, but the number of chevrons required to achieve ranks will change. The distance between ranks will be as follows: 1–3–5–7–9 chevrons. To achieve the first rank you will need only one chevron, and as many as nine will be needed to move from the fourth to the fifth rank.

In addition, the mechanics of vehicle ranks will change. In the second beta season, any rank will cost 5 chevrons.

The mechanics of obtaining chevrons will also change. The 10 best players in terms of experience earn a chevron on the winning team. The remaining 5 winning players, as well as the top 5 players of the losing team, do not earn a chevron. Finally, the remaining 10 players of the losing team lose their chevron.

In this way, we want to push players to interact: despite personal results in ranked battles, victory remains a team achievement. That is why we have expanded the list of players who do not lose their chevron if the team loses. This means that even if the battle goes poorly and the enemy is pushing in all directions, you should not give up. You need to continue to help your allies - your efforts will be rewarded.

Balancer improvements

We found several critical issues related to balance. And here's how we're going to solve them:

Let's improve the balance between teams in terms of the number of medium and heavy tanks.
Let's limit the number of self-propelled guns per team to two units.
We will add more maps and significantly improve their rotation. Thanks to this, the chances of ending up on the same card all the time will decrease.
Reward

We will also review the mechanics of receiving rewards. From now on, you will no longer have to wait until the end of the season to receive the bulk of the bonds you earn. The value of the rewards will also increase.

Testing stages

Testing of the second beta season of ranked battles will take place during the general test of update 9.20. Join us - the next stage will last until August 9.

Your feedback on changes to the game is very important to us. Leave comments on the forum and share your opinions about ranked battles.

More information about the “General Battle” battle type, vehicle rebalancing and other innovations in update 9.20 can be found.

List of changes to the general test 9.20 as opposed to version 9.19.1

General battle for the “Random Battle” mode

Rules

60 players on the map, 30 on each team.
Only Tier X vehicles are available.
The battle time is 15 minutes.
Victory conditions are similar to random battles.
Balancer

A battle of the “General Battle” type is formed from the general queue of the “Random Battle” mode.
Only Tier X vehicles can participate in battles of the “General Battle” type.
The player enters the “General Battle” battle type randomly, just like “Assault” and “Encounter Battle”.
The “General Battle” battle type is enabled by default for all players. You can enable/disable this type of battle in the settings: “Settings” > “Game” > “Types of random battles” > “General battle”.
Each team is conditionally divided into 3 subgroups, each with 10 players.
The player cannot choose a subgroup - membership in a specific subgroup is determined by the balancer.
The composition of teams in the general battle is regulated by the general rules of balance 2.0.
The composition of each subgroup by type of equipment will be as similar as possible to the composition of a similar subgroup from the opposing team.
The number of self-propelled guns in a general battle is limited to 4 units per team.
The difference in the number of platoons between teams is no more than 2 platoon players.
If at least one player in a platoon has the “General Battle” battle type enabled, then such a platoon can get into this type of battle regardless of whether the rest of the platoon members have it enabled.
Map

In this update, the main battle takes place on only one map - Nebelburg.
Map size - 1.4x1.4 km.
The appearance of players on the map is regulated by their subgroup.
Each subgroup has its own starting position (“initial rep”).
There are two bases, one for each team, as in a standard battle.
Interface

The loading screen, statistics screen (called by the Tab key), post-battle statistics screen, as well as the team composition panel are adapted for 60 players.
The entire team is divided into 3 subgroups.
The composition of each subgroup can be viewed in detail by clicking on the corresponding subgroup.
The top element of the user interface has been changed. In addition to the total number of vehicles destroyed by a team, this element now also displays the remaining total HP of each team as a percentage.
Awards, achievements and statistics

In each “General Battle” battle, players will be able to receive bonds. Players will also be able to receive bonds in regular random battles, where only level X vehicles are involved (the so-called “twelfth level” of battles). Bonuses are awarded to players who have earned 400 or more units of pure experience as a result of a battle.
The number of bonds received as a reward depends on the experience earned in battle.
The player will be able to complete combat missions, personal combat missions, and also receive all the rewards available in random battles.
In the general battle, players will be able to receive class badges and marks on their weapons (as in random battles).
Battles of the “General Battle” type are not taken into account in the summary of the player’s achievements and do not affect the statistics of random battles.
Statistics for this type of battle will be displayed separately in achievements: “Achievements” > “Statistics” > “Battle type “General battle””.
Statistics on the success of a specific vehicle in the “General Battle” battle type will be displayed separately in achievements: “Achievements” > “Vehicles” > “General Battle” battle type

Improvements to ranked battles

Improvements in the client

Added the ability to receive weapon marks and class badges not only in random battles, but also in the “Ranked Battle” mode.
The influence of Pre-Combat Instructions on the performance characteristics of vehicles is now displayed in information windows and simplified performance characteristics.
In the vehicle comparison interface, the ability to set Pre-Combat Instructions has been added to take into account their impact.
Added the ability to enable auto-replenishment of Pre-Battle Instructions in the purchase window.
Improved equipment can now only be removed using bonds.
Added display of vehicle rank on the vehicle panel (in the “carousel”), indicating a specific value for each vehicle when selecting the “Rank Battle” mode.
The interface for displaying the reward received in the past stage has been improved. Information about the reward received is also displayed in the tooltip when hovering over the rank.
The calendar interface in the mode has been redesigned. Information about prime times on each server for the selected day is now displayed in the calendar window (instead of in a tooltip as before).
The list of maps for playing in the mode has been changed. Now battles take place on the following maps:
"Mines".
"Prokhorovka".
"Monastery".
"El Halluf".
"Aerodrome".
"Robin".
"Himmelsdorf".
"Murovanka".
"Paris".
"Karelia".
"Lasville".
"Siegfried Line"
"Sandy River"
"Erlenberg".
"Polar Region".
"Tundra".
"Ensk".
"Swamp."
"Westfield".
"Fisherman's Bay"
"Highway."
"Quiet Shore"
"Windstorm".
"Fjords".
"Industrial zone".
Changes have been made to the work of the balancer:
The maximum number of self-propelled guns in battle has been reduced to two.
The balance system for vehicle types has been improved (the balancer will try to select the most similar team compositions).
The system for forming teams by rank has been improved.
The screen interface when entering the mode has been revised: information on the servers available for the game has been added; The display of information about prime times has been redesigned.
Special tips have been added to the Ranked Battle loading screen, explaining the main mechanics and features of the mode. A separate option has also been added to allow you to customize the loading screen specifically for this mode. You can choose one of three options for displaying the loading screen in the Ranked Battle mode (works the same as in random battles, but only applies to ranked battles):
text only;
with illustration;
minimap.
Season leader display improvements

An event archive has been added - you can view player statistics for the past season.
Added filters: clanmates and friends. You can see where your friends or clanmates stand on the season leaderboard.

Hall of Fame

The updated Hall of Fame is now active in the game client. The Hall of Fame section has been added to the Achievements screen.
Now you can evaluate your results in random battles not only for your account as a whole, but also for each vehicle separately, and also view the results of the best players.
You can compare your achievements with friends, clanmates and other players over different time intervals.
In addition, you can evaluate your effectiveness using the new “World of Tanks Rating” (WTR), which shows the level of play on individual machines in comparison with all players on the server.
The Hall of Fame and new WTR rankings are in open beta. Work on them continues, and we are waiting for your feedback and suggestions.

Improvements to crew stun mechanics

The duration of the inflicted stun has been added to post-battle statistics.
The mechanics of dealing damage and stunning through obstacles have been improved. Now the self-propelled gun will not deal damage through obstacles more than 2 meters thick if the target is completely hidden behind them. In this case, the blast wave may slightly bend around the corners of obstacles. To do this, the distance from the point of impact to the edge of the obstacle must be less than 2 meters, however, the damage from the explosion will be reduced.

Corrections for entries into hard-to-reach places

The ability to drive into hard-to-reach places on the following maps has been eliminated:

"Karelia".
"Steppes".
"Lasville".
"Monastery".
"Mines".
"Sacred Valley".
"Pass".
"El Halluf".
"Polar Region".

We continue the series of publications about update 9.20.1. We have another good news: in this patch we have reworked the LBZ. And we’re not just talking about changing conditions, adjustments in difficulty and changed “random” conditions - we made a new user-friendly interface and revised the mechanics of completing task chains.

A little about the interface: personal combat missions can now be entered through the menu in the Hangar header: a new “Campaign” tab will appear between “Tasks” and “Achievements” (the name is not final and may change).

In the hangar, the LBZ are placed in a separate button.
The main menu of LBZ has also been redesigned. The interface now displays the required order of execution of Operations and Combat Missions.
New interface for selecting an operation, where you can see the progress of execution. The progress of tasks can now be monitored on a specially created tactical map.

New mechanics for completing combat missions: there are no more reward sheets. Now for completing the final mission from the branch you will receive a tank module, and for completing it with honors you will also receive an order form.

The modules are needed to receive a reward tank: you have completed all five chains of combat missions - and the vehicle is in your Garage. But the order form is more interesting: it allows you to skip any combat mission. That's right, if you get stuck on some task, now you don't have to complete it if you previously managed to complete some final KB with honors and receive the main reward for it. You can even skip the final combat mission, but for this you will need as many as four order forms. A little more difficult, but worth it. By the way, you can then re-fulfill the task and get the order form back - it is reusable. Order forms are accumulated and transferred to the next operation, that is, by collecting them, over time you will be able to skip not just one chain of knowledge, but several. If there are enough order forms, of course.

The progress of the LBZ, of course, is saved even after the update is released. You will receive order forms for all completed final combat missions with honors, provided that you did not miss the final combat missions. And a reward for fulfilling the main conditions of the missed final KB. For example, if you have completed operations and skipped chains of self-propelled guns, we will give you a reward for the main conditions. But these are two additional tankers, by the way.

Revised conditions of combat missions: video will be available later.

Updated (11-07-2019, 22:59): third test 1.6

The test server in the game World of Tanks 1.6 is a regular server where new maps, features, tanks and other innovations of the game are tested. It is impossible to get to the WOT test server when the player wants it - it opens only at a certain time, when the game developers need it.

The test is open!

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 to see the changes are the staff of WOT developers, then they give access to super-testers. If there are any shortcomings, they are corrected and the version of the new client is tested under load. The test version of the client is uploaded to the backup server and made available to everyone. Once again, the development staff is looking for errors and shortcomings. Afterwards, they fix and “roll out” a new version of the client.

How to get to the WOT test server

To get to the test server you need to download a special installer 1.6 or install Wargaming Game Center. After that, launch it. He will offer to download a test client - download it and install it. Next, a folder will be created World_of_Tanks_CT(in the directory where the player specified during installation).

Everything is ready to launch! Click on the test client shortcut and you will be taken to the authorization page and login to the game. Log in with your nickname and password and select one of two test servers.

Features test. Servers

Each player is awarded 20,000 gold, 100,000,000 free experience, and 100,000,000 silver at a time.
