How to install World Of Tanks? It is enough to go to the official website and get acquainted with the technical features, non-compliance with which will cause considerable discomfort or will not allow you to enjoy the process. You can install it from the resource or through the game center - the official client of Wargaming. What needs to be checked will be discussed in the article.
Preparation
Before you install World Of Tanks, you should make sure that your computer meets the system requirements and make sure you have free space on your hard drive:
- for SD version: approximately 26 GB for the game and 7.4 GB for updates;
- for HD version: about 39GB and 12.3GB respectively.
It's better to leave a place with a margin in case of emergency: suddenly you need to install something, update or overwrite something. Yes, and cached files must also be stored somewhere, and a lot of them will accumulate during a long game.
Versions differ in the quality of textures: SD contains system files, which is convenient for those who rely on performance and playing at minimum settings. Contains high resolution vehicle textures.
HD-version is selected if you want to enjoy the delights of ultra-settings and see every detail on the tank's armor. The creators worked out the texture of the coating, cracks from shots and wear marks. Installed on a 64-bit version of the operating system. Owners of 32-bit will have to be content with the SD client.
If the characteristics of the PC meet the minimum requirements, then the installation is done in one of the convenient ways:
- The launcher is downloaded, it starts, the directory is indicated, the end is expected, the “play” button is pressed.
- Download Game Center, select WOT and install.
After the process is complete, updates are downloaded and installed, and the game starts.
Minimum configurations
If the PC configuration does not meet the minimum system requirements for the game World Of Tanks, the project will be installed and will not start.
Requirements:
- OS: Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10.
- Dual core processor from Intel or AMD equivalent.
- RAM 1.5 GB for owners of XP and for the rest of the above operating systems - 2 GB.
- Video card GeForce 6800 or ATI HD 2400 XT 256 MB.
- Internet at 256 Kbps or higher
- DirectX 9.0c.
When playing at minimum levels, the graphical component does not matter: the emphasis is on performance, in order to see the enemy in time in the midst of the battle and shoot, and not miss the projectile due to the small system freeze.
It is difficult to see the details of tank armor in detail, because this is not an "ultra-mode", but defeat in battle due to incorrect operation of the system does not threaten.
This applies to stable functioning PCs: in case of overheating and hardware problems, the gamer is not immune from crashes and freezes.
Recommended requirements
When the PC specifications meet the specified criteria, the system operates with optimal performance and the ability to communicate correctly via voice chat is supported:
- OS: Windows 7/8/10 64-bit.
- Intel Core i5.
- RAM at least 4 GB.
- 2 GB video card from GeForce (for example, GTX660) or equivalent from Radeon.
- Speed Internet at least 1024 Kbps (otherwise voice chat will not work well).
- DirectX 9.0c.
This is the version for playing at medium settings, if it is possible to set the optimal ratio of graphics and performance. Although the 64-bit version of the operating system is indicated, this is an option to install World Of Tanks for the SD version so that unused textures do not take up disk space.
Ultra
This is an option for lucky car owners whose performance isthe joke is measured by The Witchers: if the creation of CD Project Red has started, then the PC is powerful; otherwise, it's better to forget about playing at maximum settings.
Before installing World Of Tanks in HD version and playing on "ultra", you need to make sure that the PC meets all the criteria:
- OS: Windows 7, 8, 10 - 64 bit.
- Intel Core i5-7400 or equivalent from AMD Ryzen 5 1500X.
- 8 GB RAM or higher.
- GeForce 4 GB video card (e.g. GTX 1050ti) or equivalent from Radeon.
- As in the case above, the Internet is at least 1024 Kbps.
- DirectX 11.
HD-mode is still in beta, so there may be minor bugs, which are better to report to the support team. Ultra-Settings is a colorful combat mode that feels as immersive as possible in the details of the surrounding space.
If you want to leave in the past the "skating rinks" at minimum wages and feel the charm of the author's idea, this is a reason to buy a powerful computer.
