This, right here, is both the link and the explanation of what the Common Test, or Public Test if you will, is. The server is crazy busy right now, but I'll let you know when I'm in it and how fun it is!

The queue is moving quickly now, but I'm still over 25,000. And it's been two hours. I started around 110,000 though, and I've heard reports of it being at 750,000~.

 

I'll keep you posted!

[AngelofDeath 259]

I'm gonna download the test server. I have to try these new German mediums =3. Hopefully the queue won't be too long by the time it downloads and installs for me haha.

Jokes on you. I was on the forum and someone said that the queue was 750,000 places. And when I got on, two hours ago, it was at 110,000 places. I'm just over 13,000 now...

[AngelofDeath 259]

Haha i'm not surprised one bit. This is one of the lines that the community has been dying to try ever since word first came of these new mediums. This is the most anticipated update next to when the physics patch was brought up.

I'm at the less than 10,000 mark, and it's that weird point where I'm "eh" on playing, but I've waited so long that I need to play at least one game, if not 20. XD

[AngelofDeath 259]

Ehh, it's gonna take me a couple hours just to download this update XD. Hopefully by the time it's done i'll be able to get in with no issues. Thought I will need to hunt down one of my mods to make the test at least somewhat bearable.

Huh.

I wish thee luck in trying to log in with no problems, because I fear you may have a day's wait in order to get in. On the plus side, finding a match shouldn't be hard. XD

[MrMammal 157]

my ign is mrmammal. I played in beta but havent played much since s I guess I'm newish still to the new wot lol. I have the american Td's up to the T-28 Prot and mediums to the E2. Also World of Warpalnes is pretty fun if anypony is in that beta

[NewCalamity 3,454]

Hay guys just slap your hoof on that keyboard right there and put down your Usernames for World Of Tanks!

About the Public Testing...

 

So much to do!

I just bought the Leopard I with full ammo and a fully "educated" crew and will test it soon. I also bought that Tier X French TD, the AMX 50 Foch (155), with again full ammo and a fully educated crew. I'll wait a little, and maybe will buy a Tier X HT, possibly British or American.

[AngelofDeath 259]

I'll probably just buy the German mediums when I get in. Although, I might also buy and test the AMX Foch 155, Centurion 7/1, FV2502 (Whatever the British Tier X Medium is), Tortoise, Patton, and M48 Patton III.

[Nightfall 3,950]

I just got a mod for the actual game, since getting onto the Public Test will take hours. Here's a link to it from the WoT forums.

I just did the Login Screen/Loading Streak/*Tweaks* mod and the music mod, bu they've worked very well.

I also have this other mod set.

http://forum.worldoftanks.com/index.php?/topic/214353-kings-noob-friendly-modpack/page__hl__%2Bscope+%2Bmods__fromsearch__1

While you may not be "noobs," I recommend this mod. I love it!

[AngelofDeath 259]

Ahh I use that MLP modpack. Well about 90% of it at least. I have like probably over 100 different mods in my game altogether. I have out of that MLP modpack, the login screens, voices, music, crew icons, premium and standard garages, national icons, and a few skins.

How do you get the voices out of the mod pack?

I kinda want them.

And as for the music... It's so amazing! I love it to death! And those loading screens! XD

[AngelofDeath 259]

I love the music pack. The loading screens are really good too. I'm actually using a version of the voice mod from several patches back. I never really update my MLP mods because they seem to work from patch to patch haha.

I'm using a voice pack right now, but honestly, for a good number of the songs, I'd just want to sit there in game and listen to the music. XD

[AngelofDeath 259]

I couldn't agree more. There are times I lose concentration while playing cause I get too into the songs that are playing. XD

[N.W. 3,619]

And here I am, from the WoT MLP Thread to the MLP WoT thread.

As for music/voice mods, I use the Russian Voices from my RU client and Oshi's Russian Music pack.

[Nightfall 3,950]

I just tried getting the MLP mods into the Public Test server, and it's working so far. Only problem? The queue. But it honestly shouldn't take too long. I'm not worried.

[AngelofDeath 259]

I thought about going on the test server tonight but...I don't know if I wanna wait through the queue. I was on yesturday and loved Leopard I.

[~SadisticFluttershy~ 779]

Well, while this is a WoT Topic, Tell us or me.. What tank do you have right now? as your highest tier tank. and what's your fave tank?

 

My current tank is the KV1-S (Fully upgraded with the IS Gun on it, powerful as hell)

I have the Tier 7 IS Tank. However, i can't afford it due to lack of credits.

 

Most i've killed in a game was 8 Tanks.

 

My fave tank is the Tiger 2.

 

Also, if this hasn't been done already, Would anypony like to have a MLP Clan made?
