– Q: “In 8.5, the Konisch gun damage for regular and gold shells was made the same, is it realistic?” A: “As soon as you provide us with the real life data on Konisch gun damage (measured in hitpoints), we will make it realistic”
0.8.5 里的SB炮的银币弹伤害和金币弹一样，这个真是么？
答：如果你知道数据告诉我们好了

– when smoke (as cover) is introduced, the cover mechanism of various objects (haystacks, walls etc.) won’t be changed (they won’t be added as camoproviding objects), there are too many of them
烟雾机制加入以后，各种物体（艹堆，墙）的机制不会改变（因为地图上这些东西太多了，所以不打算把他们算为隐蔽物）

– various tanks have various tracks hitbox models, these models do not depend on the type of the suspension (torsion bars, Christie etc.), rather than on its shape
每个坦克的履带的hitbox都不不一样，因为它们取决于不同的悬挂系统而不是它们的形状

Digging Deeper (1) – appendix

by Thor_Hammerschlag

We probably had a great discussion on the forum after i posted “Digging Deeper (1) – Shell Normalization“. But there was also a lot of confusion. I came to the conclusion, that there are a lot of missleading sources on the web, mostly written by people who are simple not deep enough in the theme of armor penetration.
For anybody who is interested – i added on the end of my article (link is above) a FAQ, which covers most of the confusing parts. Feel free to post a comment or ask me something. 继续阅读 →

– a French premium TD is planned (unknown ETA)
毛子打算引入新的法（洛）国（林）T(A)D(C)

– battles without artillery are not planned
不带炸逼的战斗不会有

– maps that were removed for re-work (Dragon’s Ridge, Serene Coast) are not going to be implemented as optional (SS: the idea was to make them selectable much like the new modes)
回炉的地图（香格里拉和寂静海岸）不会给你选择性进去的设置(SS:原本计划做成攻防战、夺旗战那样可选择不进入）– Leopard 1 mantlet is 70mm “historical” (proof given by Storm)
豹I的炮盾的确只有70mm —参考历史有图有真相

– second round of 8.5 test will start on 11.4.2013 apparently (changes are not available yet)

– there aren’t so many city maps, because they stress the server more than “regular” maps
巷战图比起非巷战图太折磨服务器了，所以我们不打算搞太多这样的图

– Asian maps (Dragon’s Ridge, Pearl River) were introduced in order to satisfy the Asian audience

Digging Deeper (1) – Shell Normalization [revisited]

The article was first of all released in an unfinished form. I am sorry therefore, Silent Stalker released it because I send it to him, however I only wanted to let him see on what I am working on. I didn’t write it down in the email that it shouldn’t be posted in this from so it is my mistake as well.
From now on mistakes like that won’t happen again, I joined the blog as you might read already!
About the article itself: It contains a lot of technical content. I wouldn’t be able to write it without an study of mechanical engineering, especially the mechanical part probably is not easy to understand.
Therefore I recommend reading it twice before trying to understand it for anybody who isn’t familiar with the subject of armor penetration.
I prepared a FAQ based on the confusion of the first article, you can find it in the end of this version. Also I reworked the article to make it easier to understand.

– the reason a T7 Soviet premium med will be implemented is that suitable tier 8 Soviet premium medium tank was not found
我们找不到合适的VIII级金币MT，所以我们找了个装载85炮的VII级T-44原型给苏系 

– Type 59 MM spread is considered “normal”  金币59的分房范围没问题

– AMX-13 better than T71 in anything? “It’s adequate complex-of-characteristics-wise”
AMX-13比T71好吗？ 他们参数很复杂不好这么比

– tier 10 arties will make the work easier for the matchmaking mechanism
X级炸逼其实是wg偷懒为了减轻MM机制的工作量才搞粗来的！CK：果然！

– there will be no compensation for the reduced XP price of the VK2801 (“when the prices of electronics drop, do you also go whining to the electronics store for a refund?”)
vk2801研发经验减少也不会有补偿（ But neither does my electonics suddenly change spec, run slower and not hit it’s targets some time after buying it… ）
– Russian tier 7 medium prem tank was never promised for the 0.8.5, it will come in the future
毛系金币VII级中坦没说过085粗，等着吧
– in 0.8.5, on the debriefing screen, the tank life percentage stat has been replaced by damage done in battle
085的战报里，“剩余生命百分比”会换成“输出伤害”（CK：都用了2个版本的插件了你们才想着要粗？）
