Please note one thing: this is an info, gleaned from leaking WG internal
conversations and chain letters, but the summary is insider’s representation
of what the developer things. It can be wrong, but I try to doublecheck some
of the info with other sources and post only the stuff that actually fits, so
it should be reliable.
请注意：这些消息素材是蒐集自WG内部的讨论和信件，再由该局内人揣摩开发人员的想法
。信息可能有误，但我会拿来和其他消息来源比对，并只贴出吻合的部分，所以应该可信
- for Xbox, M6A2E1 arrives on 2.3.2015 (non HD)
大头 M6 会在 2.3.2015 登陆XB版（非 HD 版）
- for PC, M6A2E1 will not be sold again (applies to EU and NA), the intent to
make its owners stay really special, armor is still planned for rebalance
(historical armor) when the HD model appears
不会在电脑版重新贩售大头 M6（适用于欧服及美服），意图让他保有特殊性；装甲仍预
计在 HD 化时修正回史实
- American T18 TD will be converted to artillery during the next big
artillery rebalance patch. Artillery rebalance will happen at some point in
the future, the one thing that could accelerate it is if the 9.6 accuracy
changes prove to be really bad for arty class, otherwise it will take a very
long time and has low priority. This change is the work of one of the US
staff, likely The_Chieftain (SS: yup, IIRC, the proposed way is T18 – arty,
replaced by T3HMC?)
预计将美国 T18 (TD) 在下次自走砲大型平衡时归类为自走砲。自走砲平衡的时间，要
看 9.6 的准度修改有没有重创自走砲的表现；要是没有，平衡将会花上很长时间且优先
度低。T18 车种更动是美国人负责，很可能是 The_Chieftain（SS: 如果我没记错，应该
是用 T3 HMS 代替？）
- Minsk is getting tired of WG EU mismanagement of regular-to-unsatisfactory
quality of customer service and are already planning something for it,
however details are not shared by messages. A meeting is at hand. This means
a lot of stuff, as WG will have to make changes to each and every language
and their PR/Customer Support systems in order to “weed out” the
deficiencies.
（欧服办公室的问题，略）
- NA server is considered the most “comfortable” community-wise, because “
people are not at each other’s throats” and the staff is quite reliable,
however “they know” that the suggestions forum is pretty abandoned (almost
hopeless to post anything there as of now)
美服社群被认为是最“友善”的，因为没有对立问题而且员工表现可靠；但是已知论坛的
建议区是荒废中（目前几乎不可能在那发文）
- a new chat feature that is considered is to leave messages to offline
friends (only those that have you as a friend as well)
正在考虑做离线讯息功能
- WoWs will share premium resources (gold) just as WoWp and WoT
战舰世界会跟战机、战车世界共用相同的金币
- WoWs vandidates for several mid-tier premium “boats” are being prepared,
including a preorder one
战舰世界正在准备数艘中阶的加值“船舰”，包括一艘预购舰
- the new WG balance policy when introducing a new tank is to first add its “
historical values”, then “overnerf the vehicle and finally strengthen it up
”, because it’s easier to manage a vehicle with mediocre stats, because it
involves less whines when actually WG announces nerfs and “everybody cheers
” when they get buffed
新的新车平衡政策是先“套用史实数据”，然后“把他砍过头再补回来”；因为处理表现
平庸的车较容易；也因为宣布下调性能造成的抱怨声较少，再上修性能时“皆大欢喜”
- Maus won’t be buffed despite its t9 version coming out, so no 15cm gun for
Maus (a developer here states that if they were to add a 15cm gun to the
Maus, the “differences” with the E-100 would make the tank “a
retard-on-wheels”, since “Maus should be driven for its armor, and we won’
t balance it just because it’s not used in Clan Wars”. The tank is not for
“everybody to drive, but anyone can get it”. Basically, to sum it up,
adding a 15cm gun to the Maus would imbalance it and would make the W-100
look like a “wimp”, because it would be the same gun with much, much more
armor, despite the E-100 being “one of the most used tanks in clan warfare”.
引进小老鼠不会造成大老鼠 buff，也就是说大老鼠不会有 150 砲。（老鼠就是卖那身装
甲，不会因为工会战都坐冷板凳就 buff 它；它是“人人都能有，但不是人人都适合开”
的车。给老鼠装 150 砲会太强，用一样的砲会让隔壁装甲不如人的 E-100 只能去玩沙）
- tier 9 Mauschen should have one more set of rebalances before being added
to public test, and yes, its double threads allegedly are a pain in the ass
to penetrate and these things are currently “completely immune to HEAT”,
thanks to the skirts + threads + hull armor
小老鼠在公测前还会再平衡一次。他的侧裙+履带+车身装甲极难穿透而且目前几乎完全
对 HEAT 弹免疫。
- no plans to buff Japanese tanks despite some devs saying that they are “
mediocre at best up to tier 6〃 in every aspect. Historically speaking, it
would be impossible to rebalance, given that the Japanese guns, overall
labeled as “weak”, weren’t really developed during that era. However,
naval cannons are another thing. Also, for some reason, despite this
performance labels, the tanks seem to be faring pretty OK in their winrate
and player acceptance. Tier 7 to 10 are considered okay, many players seem to
like the t7 tank autoloading gun.
就算有些开发人员评价：“日本车直到六阶最多只能算是平庸”，仍没有 buff 他们的计
画。就史实来讲根本不可能平衡，因为那段时期日本没认真研发火砲（整体来说很弱）。
但海军又是另一回事了。而且因为其他原因，他们的胜率和接受度似乎不差。七阶以上被
认为没问题，许多玩家挺喜欢七阶车那只弹匣砲
- TD’s are scarce for the Japan tree as well, they’re looking into a gun
that uses a 77mm caliber shell with no better performance than the one of the
regular current guns of the branch, implementing it would mean “dragging
that weapon for like 3 tiers and re-using the same gun for these tanks with
different names now”, also quoting one of them saying “well, it either has
a gasket-pooper or a behemoth gun” (some mounting a naval gun, one-shot
wonders, almost like the SU-100Y).
日本科技树也缺乏TD；他们用 77mm 砲，不比游戏中现有的要好；真要实装会变成“连续
三阶都用一样的砲，只是换个名字而已”，另一位说“不是用敲门砲，就是装巨根”（装
舰砲的版本，如 SU-100Y）
- AMX 40 is now officially the worst tank ever, yet strangely, it has quite a
number of fans, because “they like the ugly thing” and “duck” appearance,
despite its gun being overly terrible for the tanks it faces. The rebalancing
that will happen may increase its performance “slightly”. At some point
(7.x era), the AMX-40 used to go backwards as fast as forwards.
AMX 40 正式成为有史以来最烂的车；但奇怪的是，就算它的砲很烂，仍不少粉丝喜欢他
的鸭子外型。些下来的平衡会让它的表现“稍微”改善。曾几何时（约 7.X 版）AMX 40
倒车跟前进是一样快的呢
- WG took notice of Japanese Anime called “Kantai Collection”, where some
girls are naval ships (???), it’s possible they *may* do something with the
publisher corporation, same as it happened with Girls und Panzer.
WG 注意到日本动画《舰队蒐藏》。“可能”会有合作，跟当初和《少女与战车》一样
（译者：去年9月东京电玩展上，《苍蓝钢铁战舰》已经宣布跟WG合作了…能不能再整合
《舰蒐》进来呢 wwww）
- Some of the WG staffmembers regret introducing the Chinese line before the
European one, but they had not enough resources to assemble anything that
would represent the euro line at that moment and even if they had, it would
have a bunch of T-44/T-54 copies too, which would have been later scrapped by
other tanks as they became available. The Chinese weere “surprisingly more
active in helping us assemble the line (with a few stumbles and a lot of
political suffering)”, especially when they announced their interest in
opening a Chinese server (with their own rules) and the result is that the
thing became a huge mess with all the payments and whatnot. However, Chinese
tanks are popular there (as expected), but “it’s not something that we want
to do again”.
有些员工后悔在欧洲线出现前就推出中国线，但他们当时也没有足够的资料建构欧洲线；
就算有，也是一堆 T-44 和 T-55 的复制车，在新的车辆资料出现后迟早会被换掉。中国
人“比想像中更积极地协助我们建立中国线（除了少数错误和许多政治压力外）”，特别
是在宣布有意建立中国独立服务器后。虽然结果是陆服因为种种原因而一团混乱。中国线
在那边受到欢迎，但“我们不想再搞一次。”
- on that topic, WG is unhappy to see their game being converted into full
derp mode on china, but “noting we can do about it”. There, it has a very
strong pay to win factor- however, it generates a lot of income for them
(Type59 floods) despite having to share their earnings with a third party
corp. Also, the community is nothing short of “xenophobic” and.. (on a
personal note), racist (“gaijin go home” type of racism) – even a certain
KongZhong developer was recorded throwing racist insults around.
承上，WG 不乐见自己的游戏被搞成陆服的模样，但是“完全无能为力”。在那，花钱者
胜利的状况非常严重；虽然要和第三方合作伙伴分享，但仍创造了大量公司收入（满坑满
谷的五九式）。而且那边的玩家不乏“仇外者”以及“种族主义者”（‘蜗牛滚蛋’主义
者）；甚至有看到某空中网的人员在四处散播侮辱的言论。
- BMPs and their concepts have been scrapped and shelved, there was one
planned as a test, but it would have been “too high a tier” and “too weak
a gun”
BMP 及装步战车的概念已被废弃；曾有过测试但“车弱砲也弱”
- Churchill Black Prince is gaining fame amongst some of the staff that plays
and players too, apparently the tank is “comfortable” to drive and
reliable, despite the slow speed and rather weak caliber gun, it makes it up
for the superb accuracy and reload along with good armor layout
黑王子在部分有玩它的开发人员以及一般玩家间建立起地位，因为这台车好开而且可靠。
虽然速度慢而且口径稍小，但极佳的准度、装填时间以及好装甲能弥补缺点。
- AT-15A is a little more popular/better winrate now that it has limited MM
and increased earnings “within the expected results”, meaning the tank won’
t be seeing any more buffs or changes until the end of time
AT-15A 因为有了分房保护和增加收入，其普及度及胜率都有提升“符合预期”，意思是
未来不会进一步更动这台车。
- no Löwe buffs planned
没计画 buff 狮式
- WG will track AMX CDC’S performance in the following patches and see if
the tank manages too poorly having a full MM and overall worse performance
than the FCM 50t. If there’s going to be a buff, it will be slight, however
the MM spread will remain unchanged
会追踪 CDC 的表现，看看整体上是否比 50t 要差。若要 buff 也只会稍微更动，不会动
分房
- if you want a solid performer, buy FCM 50t and not AMX CDC, as they are
certainly planning to remove it from the store
如果想买台可靠的车，选 50t，不要买 CDC；他们肯定在计画将 50t 下架
- M56 Scorpion coming to stores “soon”, it’ll have full MM as well
M56 蝎式将会“很快”上架，也没有分房保护
- IS-6 won’t be removed from the store in quite a bit of time, as it’s the
most purchased currently (SS: of tier 8 premiums? Unclear here)
IS-6 短期内不会下架，因为他是目前卖的最好的（SS: 不确定是不是算八阶金车而已）
- camo factor is still planned for rebalance, but first, WG will gather data
on the TD nerf, as it’s the class that mostly “benefits from it” –
meaning that they tend to camp more than any other tank, despite having the
bonuses removed, since “it’s within their nature”
仍计画要将隐蔽系数重新平衡；但首先要蒐集 TD 被砍之后的数据，因为 TD 是受其影响
最深的车：他们比其他车种更蹲，因为“本该如此”，算拿掉了车种隐蔽加成也一样。
- IM involving setting certain amount of tanks on fire may get changed to be
more RNG friendly
要把对方车打到起火的个人任务可能被修改，让机率问题没这么严重
