How to install efficently:

1. Download the patch from above link.

2. After download is complete, open the .torrent file with utorrent or a torrentprogram.

3. Let the .patch file download, aprx 2,34GB to download.

4. Sidenote: If you havent downloaded the game at all, first install the "internet" version here

5. Install it, it should take like... 10 seconds for it to finish

6. Start the launcher and make sure it has started the download session, when you are sure its downloading, press Cancel

7. Close the launcher, and move the .patch file into C:/ Games/World_of_Tanks_Physics_Preview/Updates

8. When asking for overwrite, accept it.

9. Let it copy and after its done, open the WoTLauncher.exe inside " World_of_Tanks_Physics_Preview" folder.

10. Now the launcher should start installing!

I can add when i installed, first time it got me a error, but just press Retry and then you should be able to play.

The downtime seems to change, but its still there, so no hurry to get the game running people

It's up now! But i got in a queue, and It's on russian :(

Update will be restarted at 16.00 UTC and will be unavailable till further notice.

8.0 test will be without gold

Quote

_Terrible_ : Storm, how can we demount the permanent equipments in the test server if the gold is no longer provided?

Storm : We will give you 250 gold per a day.

Each player on test server will have ALL tanks unlocked with 100% crew and enough crew experience for 3 skills

Quote

en777: Dear Storm,

in a recent answer you said that the test 0.8.0 Gold all the same will not be given, and that the prem-tanks for testing will be issued immediately.

In this regard, the question is not whether the plan is for this reason to transfer the experience in free on the test free of charge, or at least for the credits? For I, and many other players are issued on a test using gold mainly for the free transfer of experience. And having lost it, pumping equipment, and testing will be delayed for a longer time than usual.

Storm: All the tanks will be issued immediately. Nothing to research.



dim572: All tanks will be with the crew? If so, will the crew immediately 100%?

Storm: Yes, Plus experience for 3 perks.

Platoons will NOT be able to select game modes (not enough time to implement)

Quote

dw_papik: Question about fighting gamemodes . As this option would work in the case of a platoon? For example, one of the players off the platoon head-on battle, for others it is turned off? Or choice of modes will depend on the platoon commander (all the players together)?

Storm: To disable the platoon will not work.



1mihaluch1: why should I play these modes if I do not like them?, I want to play in the platoon, and without too many I'm sure. what is the problem why you can not do it for the entries?

Storm: Because I do not have time.

Arty will be nerfed

Quote

MihalichHCK: The number of artillery. Will you cut down per battle? 6 to 10 artys is to much. In my opinion more than 2 to 3 is to much. And clearly visible contrast between the average level at which the arts play a little and a lot of fun and top with 8 arts and it is better not to play.

Example: Spoiler Storm: We nerf the self-propelled guns.

EDITORS NOTE : Due to people being doubtful i can tell that Storm means that they will NERF THE ARTY. Not limiting the numbers of it per battle.
