I installed world of tanks HEAT on steam since i wanted to check both platforms WGC and Steam, although they both should use WGC, because steam connects to WGC. i seem to have more frequent crashes on Steam than the wgc platform itself. UI artifacts and tearing visuals in battle. I never had those problems when i had world of tanks HEAT on WGC. seems fine but steam version gave me frequent Crashes.
#Steam platform prone to frequent crashes
