Dear tankers!
Today World of Tanks servers are not available for most players. He writes to some tankers that the session is not over and therefore does not allow them to enter the tanks, he puts others in a queue for connection, the length of which is measured in hours. Users who have bought a premium account simply cannot use it due to problems with developers from Wargaming.
Let's figure it out, and when will the opportunity to play? We will tell you more about the answer to this and other topical questions on the topic of the inability to enter the game.
Can't access tanks
The problem is related to the fact that the server hardware used by Wargaming to run the World of Tanks project today could not withstand the load and collapsed. To find out why this happened, the best developers to recover a crashed WOT server. At the moment access to tanks restored 80% equipment.
Session not ended
This problem is constantly relevant. Those players who frequently log in and out of the game may encounter unfinished session problem in tanks and the inability to re-enter. To solve this problem, just visit your personal account and reset all active sessions. However, this option, according to World of Tanks technical support, does not always help.
In any case, the session will end sooner or later. Typically, a session will last no more than 24 hours before being forced to end. After that, you can freely enter the hangar.
World of Tanks not working
Main the reason for the inoperability of tanks wot is the insufficient bandwidth of the server equipment of the organizer. According to our data, some of the servers were transferred to the supertest of the next update, in connection with which the load on the main clusters has increased many times and prevents players from logging in normally.
Queue in World of Tanks
Due to the large number of players and the small number of available clusters, a large queue of players formed at the entrance to World of Tanks tanks. But in order to enter the tanks, you need to not only stand in line for a certain time, but also have time to take the vacant seat.
Do not forget that tankers who are in the game are also aware of the problem with the entrance and are not going to give up their place to you. Therefore, the vast majority of users tend to use the maximum possible amount of game time in tanks. As soon as one of the players leaves, his place is immediately taken by the one who is listed first in the connection queue.
→ Common mistakes in world of tanksIn any mechanism there are failures and errors. A program that never crashes is probably the dream of any programmer. But now let's talk not about dreams, but about reality. Like in any other game, world of tanks has errors, crashes, crashes, red screens and other negative realities of modern computer programs. How to deal with them? The following are a number of common errors and how to resolve them.
The main solution in world of tanks errors
If you are not very strong in programming and building a computer, there is an excellent solution for you in the world of tanks of errors. We go to the forum of the world of tanks, we find there a technical section, the topic “technical problems” and look inside for an attached topic: “F.A.Q. Self-diagnosis. Or we are looking for a problem on our own. Useful information". An excellent solution to all problems, even if it does not go to the wot server or the server is unavailable.
After you have passed a kind of test that determines the type of your failure, they will write to you how this error is fixed in world of tanks. In principle, this is where the solution to any problem ends, but you can still view topics with different solutions to problems.
In addition, the technical section is constantly collecting information about a variety of failures that occur with players. In this section of world of tanks, you need to indicate what kind of error you had, and what settings your computer and game had. With enough data collected, developers try to fix it in one way or another.
It is worth saying that serious problems that arise in the client or on the server are resolved quite quickly. Most of the crashes and failures are on the conscience of the players themselves, who incorrectly installed unofficial software, for example, wot skins, or do not follow driver updates and the internal cleanliness of the computer.
What to do if the wot server is unavailable
If it does not enter the world of tanks server, there are actually few options. Option one, the most common - you got to reboot the server. Every day at 9.30 am Moscow time, a scheduled server reboot takes place. It would seem that surprising in this? However, there are bound to be a few threads on the forum complaining that their tanks don't work.
Also wot servers are unavailable during unscheduled reboots. Very often this happens after the release of patches, when smooth operation has not yet been debugged. Often, this is immediately written on the main page of the site. So just go to the world of tanks game page and read the announcement. If your page does not enter, the answer is obvious - the Internet does not work for you. By the way, if you got caught during one of these reboots, I advise you: hold off buying game gold, as failures may occur, and you will have to spend some more time solving this problem.
It may still not enter the wot server in case of a large number of players. This happens on Friday evenings or weekends. Wot servers simply cannot cope with such an influx of people who want to play tanks. In this case, you will be put in a queue for entry and informed about it. If you don't want to wait, try another server. To do this, press esc, you will be excluded from the queue. Above the login line, select a different server and try logging in again. This will help if one of the servers is overloaded. If you do not visit any wot server, the servers will be unavailable for some time, stand in line and you can treat yourself to a cup of tea. It happens because there are a lot of players.

The World of Tanks game does not start - the "play" button does not work.
One of the common problems logging into World of Tanks is related to the "Play" button in the launcher. It is this button that must be pressed every time you start the game. But what if it doesn't work. You press and nothing happens - World of Tanks does not start? To answer this question, we have collected the most common errors when logging into WOT and described solutions for each of the problems. Let's consider each one in order, starting with the inoperability of the launcher.
If when you enter the game you cannot enter World of Tanks, you need to open the launcher, click "play" and see what happens. With a long wait, the problem with logging into WOT is often hidden behind the inability to connect to the Wargaming servers serving the cluster you have chosen. In this case, you should check for a problem on your PC, namely:
Is your firewall blocking the port through which data is exchanged between the World of Tanks client and the server?
If so, you need to add an exception to the firewall. If this is an ordinary Windows firewall, just go to the control panel, select "Firewall" and add the worldoftanks.exe file, as well as the wotlauncher.exe launcher executable file, to the list of exceptions. This can be done by double-clicking on the "Firewall" icon and going to the "Exceptions" tab, then adding the above files with the .exe extension from the folder with the World of Tanks game.

Is the application (game) blocked by your antivirus?
If you have installed anti-virus software and have not configured it properly, by default, all connections to the programs you installed earlier, including the World of Tanks game, will be blocked. To unblock, add an exception in the management shell of your antivirus (Kaspersky, Dr.Web, Nod32, Eset and others) according to the principle described for the Windows firewall (above).
Used mods for World of Tanks
Very often, mods can cause the "Play" button in the World of Tanks launcher to not work. Usually, even the best and most time-tested mod fails, especially after its update, which was released just before the next patch for WOT. Often, mod developers are in a hurry to have time to release a release that supports a new update for World of Tanks, creating a patch for the mod based on a test version of the game. Using such a "quick" update for a popular mod leads to problems with entering the game both after the release of the next version of the World of Tanks, and after the release of micropatches, 1-2 weeks after the main release.

To check if the use of modifications prevents you from entering the game, disable them for a while. To do this, just rename the res_mods folder and restart the PC before trying to login.
Does not enter World of Tanks: I click "Play" and does not enter
Among the problems with the "Play" button, the second place is occupied by errors related to the Internet connection. Check this category of login errors according to our instructions:
Find out what IP address is used when connecting your PC to the Internet, static or dynamic?
- With a static IP address, you are allocated the same address each time you connect to the Internet, and it is also credited when you enter World of Tanks. If your static ip-address is banned in tanks, every time you try to click on the "play" button in the launcher, you will not be able to connect. To solve this problem, contact your provider with a request to replace the static IP address allocated to you with another one. Some providers charge for this service, while others charge it for free. Occasionally, to replace the IP address, you may need a specialist to visit your home. More rarely, this service is not provided at all.
- In the case of a dynamic IP address, there are also problems when the launcher does not enter wot when the wedge is about the "play" button. This happens when you are allocated an ip-address banned by Wargaming when connecting to the Internet. This does not mean that you were banned, someone else playing under this dynamic address in World of Tanks was banned by IP. To solve this problem, simply reconnect to the Internet (break the connection and reconnect).
Solving the problem with the "play" button in World of Tanks

In addition to the network or internet connection problems described above, as well as your PC settings, there is a category of problems related to the game itself. Consider these errors when entering World of Tanks:
You updated the game and some files were not updated. Error while updating.
If after the update you cannot enter the game, and after clicking "play" the launcher freezes for a long time, then the World of Tanks update was unsuccessful. The game will not always inform you about this. However, when connecting, the server will definitely check whether the hash of the client files installed on your PC matches the current game update. If at least one file differs even by 1 byte or is missing, the server will not allow you to enter the "World of Tanks" and will send a command to the launcher to try to update again.
![](https://i1.wp.com/wotanks.com/images/mir-tankov/ne-zahodit-v-worldoftanks/vosstanovit-celostnost-worldoftanks.jpg)
The launcher will not be able to update again, and the game will freeze when you click on "play" and here's why: some directory or a separate file (less often many files) in the game folder is not writable for the current Windows user. That is, the user under which you logged into Windows to play World of Tanks cannot overwrite old files for some reason. And there may be several reasons:
- the user does not have enough rights to manage the computer;
- the user's rights have been restricted by another user;
- the user himself has limited the rights to the World of Tanks game files intentionally or not;
- the antivirus manages files as it sees fit on your PC.
Each of these items needs to be checked separately and to find out if the error when starting World of Tanks through the launcher causes problems during the update.
What to do if World of Tanks does not work
The easiest solution to the problem when it does not enter the game can be reinstalling World of Tanks. Don't be afraid to erase all files to make sure they don't interfere with entering the tanks. The client version of WOT that you install on your PC does not contain any personal data that can be lost when uninstalling World of Tanks, except for files with your replays and mods you installed earlier. We have already found out about mods - it’s better not to dwell on them if you want to solve a problem with the game. Feel free to reinstall the game, it usually takes about half an hour.
If reinstalling didn't help, there's a good chance that the problem with the "play" button is related to your network or internet connection (solution above).
World of Tanks hangs when entering the game
Particular attention should be paid to the drivers used for the video card and the availability of a license for the operating system. The error I click on the play button and does not enter can be caused by the lack of a license for Windows, as well as outdated drivers for your video card. To solve these problems, start by updating the "firewood" for the video adapter by going to the manufacturer's website, downloading from there and installing the latest driver version that matches your operating system and its bit depth (32 or 64 bit). To solve problems with Windows, it is recommended to purchase a license (at your discretion). This will save you from most potential problems with entering World of Tanks and the launcher.
If you are unable to log into the game using your account login and password, please read the instructions on this page.
We tried to describe all the situations that most often occur with our users.
I enter my username and password from the account, but it does not let me into the game!
First of all, calm down. Worrying about entering an account name or password can cause you to make a mistake, which happens very often.
To avoid this, please follow the instructions below:
- Make sure you are typing your account name and password using the correct language. You can switch layouts by pressing combinations Alt+Shift, ctrl+shift or another if you changed the key combination to switch them.
- Make sure your keyboard is not enabled cap lock. This feature, when enabled, causes all letters you type to be uppercase, which in turn may cause your password to be perceived as incorrect.
- If the above recommendations did not help, try typing your password in a text file (after making sure that no one sees the screen of your monitor and cannot read the password), copy it and paste it into the authorization window in the game. Don't forget to delete the password file after this check!
- If that doesn't help, go to the next step.
I forgot my account password / I would like a new password.
If you have forgotten your password or the old password no longer works for your account, you can use the password recovery function.
In order to recover your password, you need to follow the link to the password recovery form, go through a short verification that the account belongs to you, and get a new password.
Game account blocked!
An account can be blocked in several cases:
- If the terms of the User Agreement have been violated from this account.
- If the rules of the game were violated from this account.
- If the security of this account has been compromised or the account is suspected of unauthorized access to other people's accounts.
- In other cases, when account blocking is caused by necessity.
The first difficulties can begin even at the stage of the game launcher. If the launcher crashes after launch, you will need to configure it correctly.
- Delete the Updates and Wargaming.net folders from the Windows system folders: XP C:\Documents and Settings\UseName\Local Settings\temp, Vista and Win 7 C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Temp
- We start the launcher again, specifying port 6881 and using a torrent connection.
- Add the game to the firewall and antivirus exceptions (if you use a standard firewall, this is done directly in the launcher settings).

Game crashes after pressing "Play"
Launcher started normally, but when you click the "Play" button, it does not start or the game client itself crashes? The following options are possible.
System requirements do not match
Although WoT does well on older PCs, there are minimum requirements without which the game will not run. Only a computer upgrade will help.
Wrong graphics settings
Crashes are possible if you used graphics settings higher than the computer can "pull". Difficulties can begin both during the battle and at the very start of the game.
For a solution, choose more modest graphics settings, starting with the recommended settings.
Rights and Compatibility Issues
Security systems in new operating systems (from Vista and newer) do not always give games a comfortable environment to run. Try running Tanki as administrator and in compatibility mode.
- Right-click on the WoT shortcut and select "Properties".
- Go to the "Compatibility" tab.
- We set the level of rights and check the various compatibility modes.
Video card drivers not working
To run the game correctly and ensure good performance, be sure to take care of installing drivers for your video card.
- Visit the NVIDIA or AMD/ATI website to find a driver for your device.
- Select your video card model from the list on the website.
- Download the full installer (we do not recommend using the update).
- Install drivers.
Missing Windows system components
For the correct operation of Tanks, a lot of auxiliary programs are required. If they are not on the computer, World of Tanks will not start. Let's briefly go through the components necessary for launching.link).
