Production Director Kaeo Milker出来跟英霸玩家打招呼，
更新一下自从噩耗发布后内部的一些近况
Greetings, Heroes!
I wanted to check in and give everyone an update following our latest
announcements.
往后数月已经规划的内容会照旧进行（应是已制作完成）
很快我们的第８５只英雄就会开始测试，也会有伴随的主题活动与英雄重制
First, the next few months will unfold much like we’d originally planned. In
fact, our 85th hero will be announced soon before hitting the PTR the first
week of January, and that hero will be followed by a string of cool events
and hero reworks en route to our next hero release.
再之后的规划，我们英霸团队内部还在讨论。
虽然部门缩减，但是仍有产能。目前能给大家的资讯不多，我们会持续更新消息。
What we want to do beyond those releases is currently under discussion across
the Heroes of the Storm team. The plans moving forward are going to be
focused on the things that the Heroes team and all of you in our community
are excited for. Our team has always thrived when we’re working on things we
’re passionate about. While our team is smaller, we’re a fully functional
group of developers who can create the features and content we all want, in
time. I know everyone is eager to hear more, but we’re still in the early
stages of these conversations, so we’ll share updates once the team has made
some decisions.
目前我们主要讨论每次更新的频率以及内容，还有游戏的一些核心机制，
让英霸可以更好。
包括：
完成英雄标签的重定位
完成阶级赛(Ranked Play)的改进
让玩家可以直接用钻石买特定外观
让金币可以用来购买更多外观与坐骑
下一个patch我们就会对快速对战跟阶级赛的配对机制做修正
And while I can’t give you all the details just yet, I will also say that we
’re actively discussing not only the right cadence for our patches and
content – we’re also reconsidering some very core areas of the game to
identify more ways we can make Heroes even better for players.
Just a few of the many things we’re currently discussing include:
Finalizing the Hero Role overhaul
Timing for rolling out the Ranked Play consolidation and improvements we
discussed at BlizzCon
Bringing back the ability to directly purchase individual skins with Gems
Adding the ability to get more content like skins and mounts with Gold
More immediately, we just had a balance patch on Wednesday which will be
followed closely by additional matchmaking changes to both Quick Match’s
queue times and to the division spread used for matching high-level players
in Ranked modes. Please check out the patch notes for all the details on the
balance changes and be on the lookout for our matchmaking forum post as those
improvements roll out.
结论:我们仍然努力生内容给大家，请大家继续支持。
桌游活动因为广受欢迎所以延续到二月，玩家最多可以刷５０次桌游，尽量玩吧！
So, in summary: meaningful changes are here now, and more content and updates
are on the way shortly. As we move into the new year, please be valiant with
us as we take some time to evaluate our new approach to all the exciting
things we want to do. And as always, please share your thoughts on what you
would like to see in 2019 while letting us know how we can continue improving
this game that we all love.
Lastly, the team has been having a ton of fun with the Most Amazingest Board
Game Ever and we’ve decided to extend our Winter Toy Event into February to
give everyone more chances to play. The game can be completed 50 times during
the event for up to 50 free Rare Toy Chests, so have fun, and we hope you
enjoy the event as much as we do!
Thanks,
Kaéo
