【Developer Q&A 】2013/4/1 –高穿深女王炸逼

Just to be clear, I consider “official” trolling on 1st April totally retarded – what’s the point of trolling someone when everyone knows you’re gonna get trolled that day? This post is thus free of any troll attempts… well, at least attempts from me 🙂 Nah, just kidding, I skipped all the troll answers. TBH, I don’t somehow think it’s even funny.

– at this moment it is not decided whether the client physics will be optional as a whole, or you’ll be able to tweak them by switching off parts of it (such as: suspension – yes, physics object destruction – no, etc.), still too early to tell, experiments are ongoing
目前来讲客户端的HAVOK引擎是整个还是各项优化没有最终确定,(比如:独立悬挂-OK,物体可毁-NO,等等)等消息日后看吧

– unlimited ignore list won’t come and it won’t be made client-side, because there would be a problem if you switched computers
不会有没有人数上限的黑名单,这东西数据不再客户端上否则你换电脑了肿么办?

– chat won’t be separated from combat commands (“don’t screw up – you won’t get chatbanned”)
聊天不会从战斗指令里分离

Q&A(俄服)提问的技巧及部分俄服QA

There are five basic post types the developers hate:
bojan, vajn, OVM, suggestions and reposts.
DEV最讨厌的几个禁区!:bojan, vajn, OVM, suggestions 和 reposts

Bojan – in SerBspeak it means a retarded question. There can be any number of these and the term itself is very, very broad. I’ll get to various types later.

Vajn – that’s a Russian transcription of the English word “whine“. Basically any posts like “AMAGAD tankX sux buff it nao!” is considered whining. Any cries for buffs, nerfs, rebalances and such stuff are punished with a 14 day read only ban and they are NEVER answered, ever. Developers never change parameters of tanks based on forum outcry, it’s absolutely pointless to suggest that. Whining can be about anything: game mechanics, maps, etc.

2013/3/29

– P.43bis might have the same gun as the Semovente 105/25 (most likely nothing longer)
p43bis 可能和 semovebte 105/25 的炮是一样的(不可能再长了)

– apparently there were no Japanese SPG’s developed based on the superheavy tank chassis, as the tanks themselves were barely properly developed
因为那些个鬼子超级ht本身就底子不足,显然跟没有基于它们底盘的炸逼了

– regarding the possibility that the top Japanese tank destroyers will be modified superheavy chassis projects with 155mm+ guns – “we’ll see”
使用鬼子超级ht底盘的155mm以上大管子的顶级td,嘛~以后再说你们会知道的

VK7201 PART DEUX

Mar 27, 2013

Hello everyone,best of to react before this gets out of hand 🙂 In the morning, I published an article “VK7201 – fake or not“, where I wrote about the history of the VK7201. I expected some more outrage, but instead, some people just took it.

Without further ado: I made the thing up.

Well, not totally everything – I mean, the general part about the Lowe tank is true, even the Spielberger’s book exists, but there was never any such a thing as “Feldhaubitze auf Infanterieunterstützungfahrgestell” – I made the name “Failowe” up too.

0.8.5 – 版本更新侧漏【少量翻译】

Well, this is a bit odd. Someone, writing as anonymous, wrote a comment under the recent daily translation that he hates me because I am arrogant, but that he’s going to share this anyway (the post ended up in spam folder).

This is NOT confirmed, keep that in mind, some items are… suspicious.

List of changes in 0.8.5 version in comparison with version 0.8.4:– added new German research tree branch, Medium and Light tanks:
VK 2001 DB (tier 4 MT)
VK 3002 DB v1 (tier 6 MT)
Indien Panzer (tier 8 MT)
Prototype der Arbeitsgruppe A (tier 9 MT)
Leopard 1 (tier 10 MT)
Aufklarerpanzer Panther (tier 7 LT)

– Added new Soviet Light tank branch:
T-60 (tier 2 LT) T-70 (tier 3 LT) T-80 (tier 4 LT)

So yea, the Indienpanzer will follow after the VK3002DB, which is getting renamed to VK3002(D).Also, here’s the preview of the 8.5 German tree
