- in 9.5, Sherman Firefly will be researchable from Sherman III and Sherman
III from Grant (SS: the connection between new/old branches will be Valentine
to Archer)
9.5 萤火虫线：Grant → Sherman III → Sherman Firefly
（SS: Valentine → Archer）
- it’s possible Churchill Gun Carrier will lose the 32pdr gun and will drop
to tier 5
CGC 有可能拔掉 32磅砲后下放五阶
- Q: “Back in the day, it was possible to always find a strategy 1vs1〃 A: “
In +/-3 MM as well?”
Q:“想当年，总是有办法弄出 1 vs 1的场”A:“在±3的分房规则下？”
- in 9.5, Challenger and Avenger will be mixed into one vehicle. It’s
possible those vehicles will exist as separate hulls, when alternative hulls
are implemented.
Challenger 和 Avenger（前者的开顶减重版）会合并；以后可能当可选车体用
- FV4004 Conway has “frontal armor roughly like a Centurion”, only the
FV4005 has paper armor
FV4004 Conway“正面装甲和 Centurion 相当”，只有 FV4005 是纸装甲
And now, for interesting news – Storm: “Most likely, we will reject HD
resolution” (he means HD texture resolution on high-polygon models), he
reasons as such:
“HD textures for one vehicle have cca 80 Mb. 400 tanks * 80 Mb = 32 Gb of
textures only for tanks. 80 Mb * 30 tanks in battle = 2,4 Gb in video memory
only for tanks. And then there are maps and environmental objects, so the
number above can be roughly multiplied by two. Maybe in 10 years from now on,
we will return to HD. When resources and internet channels are sufficient.”
This matter was already decided. Storm adds that the display of HD textures
on your own tank only was the first thing they did a patch ago to reduce the
stress on memory. But after calculating the total size of the game client, it
was decided to remove the HD textures altogether.
Storm：“我们很可能放弃高解析贴图”原因：“一台车的高解析贴图约有80Mb，客户端
中车辆贴图容量就有32Gb；而一场游戏光车辆贴图要占用2.4Gb的显卡内存，再加上地
图、物件，这数字很可能翻倍。或许十年后等网络流量能容纳之后，我们会重启高解析
贴图。”
这件事已定案。Storm 补充说之前设定只有自己的车以高解析贴图显示，是释放内存压
力的第一步；但在计算过总游戏容量后，终于决定完全移除高解析贴图。

- individual missions will come in 9.5, along with their respective reward
tanks
个人任务会在9.5推出，也会有特别的奖励车辆
- there will not be the option to test individual mission tanks before they
are implemented
实装前无法试乘个人任务奖励车
（译者：应该是在指公测的时候）
- no large vehicle rebalance is planned for 9.5
9.5 没打算做重大平衡
- New Year gift tank? “No comment :)”
新年送啥车啊？“不予置评（笑）”

- Storm on possible E-25 removal from the shop: “Wasn’t my decision. Ask
those, who are spreading this piece of information :)”
之前传出要把 E-25 下架的消息，Storm：“与我无关，去找谣指部负责。”
- apparently, when IS-3 is transformed into HD, it will have worse lower
frontal plate angle, but otherwise, the armor level will improve – in case
of side armor significantly
IS-3 HD 化时首下的角度会更糟，但装甲会提升
