– World of Warplanes will officially be released on September 26th in the USA and EU
飞机世界将会在9月26日于美服和欧服正式开放

– SerB states that Russian archives are such mess that you never know, what you will find. It’s possible to dig in them only in general direction (for example “self propelled guns”)
SerB说毛子的文献资料之乱,数量之多都是你无法想象的。以至于你只能通过一个大方向来寻找你所需要的资料(举个栗子。“自走炮”)

– no plans to add rotating ventilators on tank models: Storm states that the rotating blades wouldn’t be visible anyway over the grill cover. French tanks with clearly visible ventilators
won’t have them rotating either (SS: if I understand this correctly)
现在没有计划使坦克上的一些换气扇做成可旋转的样式:Storm说反正换气扇上的铁丝网一盖你们就什么都看不见了。尽管法国车的风扇是可见的,但是也不会让它们转起来。(SS:如果我理解正确的话)

– account to account gold transfer (SS: apart from the gift shop) won’t be implemented, as it holds no advantage for WG
账号对账号的金币交易(SS:除了商店买的金币以外)(战队奖励之类)不会引入,因为对WG没有好处。 

– SerB on tanks without healthbars (SS: as in, any hit could potentially kill a tank): “This variant has been tested and scrapped a long time ago. It was tried like that during one part of the alpha test. The gameplay was worse than it is now, the influence of skill was even smaller and the influence of luck was greater. It won’t be implemented. As an example of this, I suggest reading the mass whining of War Thunder players about their planes incomprehensibly ‘eating’ damage.”
SerB对没有HP条的坦克的看法:(SS:也就是任何一炮都有可能干掉一辆坦克)“这个想法在很久之前就被测试并否决掉了。那个好像是在内部测试的第一阶段就测试过的玩意。游戏性比现在还差,游戏水平对游戏的影响比现在还小,而运气所占成分变大了。它不会被引入游戏。作为使用此机制的游戏,我建议你们去看一下战争雷霆的玩家们抱怨他们的飞机在不停的“吃掉”伤害”

Again, not much info today.
今个也没什么大新闻,将就着看吧: 

– Q: “Severogorsk is tiny and should drop only for lowtier tanks” A: “Your opinion is very important to us” (SS: eg. it won’t be changed)
问:“别洛戈尔斯克(8.7新地图)太小了,应该像某些地图一样只有小车才能进。”答:“你的意见对我们来说很重要(才怪)” (SS:意思就是不会变的)

– Swedish Rikstanken (based on the L-120) apparently won’t be implemented, as it is armed with a 7,92mm machinegun (SerB: “And who do you want to knock out with such a caliber?”) (SS: the fact something is equipped with a 7,92mm MG does NOT mean it can be implemented, regular 7,92mm AP shells have less than 10mm of penetrating power, the Panzer I Ausf.C gun is very, very specific in this)
鉴于瑞典的Rikstanken (基于L-120制造而成)的武器只有一挺7.92mm 的机枪,它不会被引入游戏。(SerB:“你靠那个小牙签炮想去打谁?”)(SS:事实上,拥有一杆7.92mm机枪并不意味着它就不可能出现在游戏中,常规的7.92mm穿甲弹的穿深大概是小于10mm,1号C型的机枪是个很特殊的例子(33mm的穿深——译注)

M26 Pershing: Medium or Heavy? (Plus other stuff)

Recently I’ve run across a small little debate about what exactly was the M26 Pershing? Was it a heavy tank or a medium tank?

This is a tricky question as it was technically both. That answer, even though correct, can be made more define. From what I’ve read, the M26 was a medium tank more than it was a heavy. On June 29th, 1944 the US Ordnance, who wanted a heavy tank to boost morale, redesignated the T26(M26)s as a heavy tank. Before this the T26 was a de facto medium tank that was developed from the T20 series of medium tanks. From June 29th, ’44 to the end of WWII the M26 kept its title as a heavy. After WWII the M26 was once again designated as a medium tank.

On suspected German rebalance – 猜测的元首平衡性

Author: Daigensui (US forums)

Here’s a bit of info about the upcoming German rebalance. You can consider the info… let’s say in accordance to what WG plans, ergo more than just “pure guessing” and less than a leak.

Daigensui:

Many have started panicking due the broad statement above. However, I believe while there will be quite a bit of hard number changes, those will be compensated enough to make the Panthers and Tigers enjoyable.
