Update world of tanks

Mothers_Cookies's Photo Mothers_Cookies Jan 22 2013

Hello, does anyone know if I lose my internet connection or cancel an update (I am updating from 7.5 to 8.3) will it start over?

I am in the middle of an update but may need to disconnect my PC and move to another location before it is complete, thanks.

I thought I had read somewhere that once I restart the client it will pick up where it left off.

The update downloads are actually done via bittorrent, so they're very good at being stopped and restarted, without losing data. Also, the installation doesn't begin until the download is fully complete, so there's no worry about bad internet interfering with the installation.

NOTE: Updating from Pre-8.0 to 8.0+ is buggy.

If you encounter issues after updating, reinstall using a freshly downloaded installer.

Thanks everyone, I will disconnect with confidence.  Multiple gig downloads are one of those things that always seem to fail at 98%. :)
