To everyone who got excited about 9.6 supertest data being leaked to gamemodels3d site – don’t. Some of the stuff is wrong, such as the armor models of the HD tanks, those are screwed. Personally, considering most of the stuff was leaked per partes before, I think waiting for the 9.6 CT is better than drawing conclusions currently.

那些从模型3D网站看到超测数据之后激动的玩家们_ 不要这样啦。其中的一些内容是不对的，比如高清坦克的装甲模型，乱七八糟。就个人而言，大多数的东西都是之前泄漏过的，我觉得等待9.6的测试要比现在就得出结论好的多。

- Storm, commenting on the HT mission where you have to cap the base being too difficult: “There are some complications, but we’ll think what to do with it. No promises though for now.”

Storm点评重坦任务，需要去占领覆盖整个基地太困难了：确实有一些困难存在，不过我们会去处理的，暂时还不能保证什么

- many things were changed in WOT based on player surveys

游戏内的许多东西都是基于玩家的调查去更改的

- French LT’s won’t be buffed apparently, because “their situation is better than those tanks that are getting buffed”

法系轻坦不会加强，因为它们的情况要比那些被加强的还好。

- Aufkl?rungspanzer Panther (tier 7 LT) will be removed from the game and replaced by SP.I.C. (SS: oh, I proposed that almost two years ago, well, better late than never)

侦查豹会从游戏内移除，由SP.I.C.来替换 （SS：啊！差不多两年前我还提过这事呢，晚点有总比没有强）

- the change mentioned above will happen in 2015

上述那些变动将会发生在2015年

- it’s possible WT E-100 will be removed from the game as well, WG is considering it, as there are options now (SS: …and they are awesome. Well, okay, one is.)

有可能，WT E100会从游戏中移除，WG正在考虑，现在有了候选项

Evilly Q&A

Hello everyone,

what follows is the transcription of answers of Anton “Evilly” Pankov, producer of World of Tanks. Most are rehashed old answers. Here’s the more interesting stuff:

WoT制作人 “Evilly” 的Q&A翻译，很多都是旧的信息，有一些挺有趣的：

- Bigworld was chosen because when the game was planned, the company was very small and there was no option of getting another engine apart from Bigworld. At first, WG wanted to do an RPG with orks based on Bigworld and server and client sides were already ready, when WG decided to switch from elves to tanks and WG continued to work with it, because it was most accessible at the time.

Bigworld引擎之所以被选用，是因为在计划游戏之时，公司规模很小，除了BW引擎没其它选项。起初，WG是想搞个基于BW引擎的兽人RPG模式，服务端和客户端已经准备就绪，这时，WG决定改为坦克，而WG还真就这样做了下去，因为在那时是最容易的。

- WG is currently working on chat overhaul, first will be the channels, followed by the contact list system. Players will be able to divide their contact lists into groups (close friends, platoon guys etc.), so it will become more flexible over time

WG目前对聊天系统进行全面的重做，第一个是频道，接着是联系人列表，玩家可以把列表分为多个组别（亲密好友，组队队友之类的），因此随着时间的推移会变得更加灵活

- WG is working on further conversion of the game client for Mac OS

WG正在搞苹果客户端

- new version of Bigworld (in patch 0.9.7) should not reduce FPS (WG needs the new version to implement future features), in fact preliminary tests show the performance should

increase due to optimizations in the engine

BW新版引擎不会降低帧数（WG需要新版用来实施以后的功能），实际上初步试验表面游戏性能因为引擎的优化会提升

- WG started working on improved tutorial to guide newbies to learn the game, a new tutorial mode is planned where players will be able to train against bots

WG已开始改进新手教程，指导他们去学习玩游戏，有个新教程模式已在开发，玩家们可以与bots进行对战训练

- 9.7 will bring new regular tanks (SS: the French)

9.7会有新的普通车（法系）

- WG is working on special events for 1st of April (fun mode) and mid-May (celebration of the end of the war anniversary)

WG正在为愚人节搞一个特别的活动，还有在五月中旬也有个（用来庆祝战争结束）

- there will also be a new mode for random battles (in summer presumably)

还会给随机模式做个新模式 （大概在夏季）
