Hello everyone,

according to the translation of recent Japanese interview with Viktor Kislyi, the ETA for patch 8.10 (that will bring the Japanese tanks) is mid December. That means the test server will start quite perhaps in a week or so.

More info from the interview:

– going to “invest” a lot in E-Sports due to the competitive nature of the Korean market
– Japanese Teams for WoT competitions are pretty strong, due to (1) competitive (2) military fans (3) G&P
– F2P is the way of the future, V.Kislyi doesn’t want pay to win
– WoT, WoT:B, WoT 360, WoTG, and WoWP will be released to the Japanese market, but not as a separate server, the Japanese will play on current ASIA (former SEA) server

Just so you know, guys, I got told by WG RU that the annoying portal bug with switching languages will be fixed with the 8.10 patch, they developed the fix already but something (unspecified) prevents them from deploying it straight away.
跟你们说一下,WGRU的人跟我说那个官网语言BUG(欧服的,选择英文会出现一些德语+波兰语的BUG)会在8.10上线时一并修复,他们早就搞定了修复办法,但是有什么东西(此处并未指明) 阻止了他们直接把补丁搞上线

– SerB will not publish how many players can RU server handle before it gets overloaded
SerB不会公布毛服在服务器过载之前能承受多少数量的玩家的

– Hunnicutt archive digitization: “when it’s done it’s done”
Hunnicutt文献的数字化:  “when it’s done it’s done”

– the devs haven’t found any new tech usable for WoT there for now
开发团队暂时没有在(Hunnicutt的文献中)找到可以给WOT用的新科技(车辆)

– price of the archive? “no comment”
你们花多少钱买的这些文献?“无可奉告”

– T110E1 and T110E2 are also mentioned in Hunnicutt’s “Firepower” book, but there’s not much on them there
T110E1和T110E2在Hunnicutt的“火力”一书中提到过,但是关于它们的信息并不多

Not much today. As you might have already guessed (since it’s Wednesday and since I posted on the FTR FB about it earlier), there is a problem with the FTR QA. It’s almost certainly cancelled. The reasons for it have nothing to do with me or FTR, it’s an internal WG RU thing (yes, I know the real reason – I got told, but I will post it only if it becomes public knowledge, as it is internal WG info and I promised discretion).
今天也没多少东西,正如你所猜到的一样(现在已经礼拜三了,在SS的Facebook页面上也有提到过),FTR的QA出了点小问题。它基本上已经被宣告终结了。但是这和FTR以及SS本人没什么关系,而是WG毛服本部的内部事务(没错,我知道是因为什么—他们告诉我了,但是我只会在公众知情的情况下把它发出来,因为这是WG内部的事情,而且我也保持了自己的判断)

Recently, Veider and Anton “Evilly” Pankov answered a bunch of questions. Please note that while Veider’s info is probably correct, there might be some errata later on. Summary:
最近,Veider和Anton “Evilly” Pankov回答了一堆问题。要注意的是尽管Veider的答案一般都是对的,但是还是不排除有错的可能。以下为问答总结: 

– the question whether to allow crewman specialization retrain (SS: for example radioman to driver) is still being discussed, but likely it will happen
现在还在讨论是否可以让大家把一个职责的组员训练成另一个(SS:举个栗子,通信兵训练成驾驶员)是否会加入游戏,但是出现的可能性很高
