Guide to Public Tests

We're giving you the chance to try out another World of Tanks Public Test. These tests help us gather data and information on changes we're implementing and give you the chance to test out what we're work on and provide us with your feedback! You don't need to be an experienced tester to join in, you just need to be willing to try out the new features we're working on and send us your feedback!

This particular Public Test focuses on changes to armor penetration at higher tiers, particularly in regards to tank destroyers and medium tanks, and some heavy tanks.

We have two main reasons why we're revising the armor penetration:

  • Excessive armor penetration in high tier (VIII - X) battles. The ratio between successful and ineffective shots exceeds the rations in medium and low tiers.
  • A need to increase the role of penetration in high-tier battles. Analysis of high-tier battles has shown that excessive armor penetration eliminates the role of heavily and medium armored vehicles in battle.

Before you jump in, keep in mind that armor penetration values in the Public Test are not final and changes will be implemented only after careful examination of statistics gathered via the Public Test.
