– SerB is now (or was recently) in Chicago
SerB最近在芝加哥

– WG doesn’t have any info for now on one-turret 76mm Soviet Object 050 heavy tank, based on T-100 and about the IS project with cca 100mm armor and 152mm gun from 1940
WG目前还没有其中一个炮塔是76mm管子的Obj050HT的任何消息。Obj050基于T-100和IS系列，前车身装甲100mm并在1940年之后有152mm的管子。

– SerB states that the current German and Soviet branches are cca 70 percent complete
SerB说，目前元首和毛系科技树大概只完成了70%左右！【CK：如果算上085的新车，目测还有15～18量新车木有粗！！】

Americans have a 8.5 tank preview on their server (didn’t notice the same thing on EU server, hence the US link)
美服8。5前瞻请点我┏ (゜ω゜)=☞

– according to SerB, there is no corellation between shooting distance and damage done (a player was complaining that when shooting over 300m, shells do less than average damage more often)
SerB说，炮弹飞行距离和能造成的伤害没有半毛钱关系（有玩家抱怨打300米以外目标时伤害比一般情况下要低）【CK：+-25%的均穿/伤害是两套系统来着】

今天钓鱼内容过多，SS已经省略了一大半废话了。So，开始忽悠

– a failure of a player to prevent your base capture is not considered a reportable offense
人家没能阻止敌人占领基地不构成举报条件，这事我们不管

– reporting profanity/spamming does not automatically lead to an instant chat ban, it’s re-checked by moderators
被举报脏话/垃圾消息的炮友不会自动禁言,会有专人人工审核的

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

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.

– 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
