– it looks like no matter what happens with the KV-1S 122mm gun, the 100mm S-34 will be added either way
– 好像无论 KV-1S 的 122mm 炮如何变动，100mm S-34 都会加入

– the reason for KV-1S balance is that it stands out in the statistics. Not terribly, but it does. So in any case it is necessery to somehow nerf the 122mm KV-1S, but what exactly is still being discussed
– 平衡 KV-1S 的原因是它的战绩太突出了。尽管不是特别严重，但它的确是过强了。所以无论怎样，122mm KV-1S 必须要某种程度上的削弱才行，但是具体如何实施还在讨论中

– the German unhistorical engines removal was the balance team’s idea, not SerB’s.
– 移除德系不符合历史的发动机，这个主意是平衡小组想的，不是Serb

– Q: “Why remove unhistorical German engines when most of the players don’t care about their historicity anyway, but it did cost a lot of XP to level them up and it causes distrust between players and WG?” A: “We don’t care about distrust, conspiracy theorists would make up a conspiracy theory anyway”
– Q：“绝大部分玩家并不在乎那些德系被移除的发动机是否符合历史，既然如此为何还要这么做，我们可是花了一大堆经验去研发它们的，你们不怕这么做会造成玩家和WG之间互相不信任吗？”A:”我们不在乎猜疑，阴谋论者总有办法编出阴谋论”

Hello everyone,
大家好

today, we have something interesting. As you probably know, I was not able to go to the Gamescom this year, but others did – in this case it was one player, who wished his nickname to remain anonymous, who met some of the developers and designers and asked some interesting questions. Of course, keep in mind that this is not a 100 percent info I can vouch for, but all of it seems kinda legit to me.
今天的QA有一些有趣的东西。如你所知，我没能参加到今年的科隆游戏展了，但是其他人来了－其中有一位不愿暴露昵称的玩家，见了开发人员并问了一些有意思的问题。当然，要说好我不保证这些信息100%准确，但是我觉得这些看上去都很靠谱。

Here’s what he learned (the way he wrote it, I only corrected some typos):
这就是他搞到的信息（如实照抄，我只改了下拼写错误）

– Japanese are most likely coming in 2013
– 日本线大概在2013年出

– Chieftain and one more other T10 tank may come for the Brits.
– 英国线将加入酋长和另一辆十级坦克

– FV215B likely to be rebalanced – FV215B可能会被重新平衡
