Hello everyone, please note that the 122mm HE Soviet shell alpha buff is
unintentional and will likely be cancelled.
9.4三測蘇聯122mm HE 砲彈傷害調高是個意外，正式版不會更動
- according to Storm, the statement that limited MM is one of the premium
vehicle characteristics is incorrect, as large part of the premium vehicles
have normal MM
據 Storm 表示，金車該有分房保護的說法是錯誤的，許多金車屬於正常分房
- Storm states that nerfing limited MM to regular MM happened only once for a
premium tank – with Type 59. The tendency for premium tanks is more like the
opposite, as it was recently with the AT-15A and M6A2E1
Storm 表示把金車砍回正常分房只發生過一次：在五九式身上。更改通常是降低分房，
例如 AT-15A 和 M6A2E1
（譯者：五九式只會上九階，不知道Storm在說什麼…）

finish shooting their first clip before they are destroyed

most likely come with the complete perk overhaul
重製第六感要等到明年，很可能隨著技能全面重製推出
- Storm states that the importance of perks will most likely not be improved,
because it would make old players with many perk crews overpowered
Storm 表示技能的重要性並不會被提昇，避免老玩家的多技能組員過強
- Storm states that the HD model experiments were conducted on IS-4
Storm 表示 HD 模組的實驗是由 IS-4 開始的
- the Havok got delayed, because developers “were ashamed” to introduce
only small object destruction in first round and went to work on building
destruction instead and now they are “stuck on the issue of performance”
Havok 被延期了；因為開發人員不屑在一開始只支援小物件，但又卡在效能問題上
- Storm states that if artillery gets “normal accuracy” (SS: as in,
pre-nerf one), it would have to be compensated by alpha reduction, aimtime
and shell flight velocity, which is something the developers really don’t
want to do
Storm 表示若 SPG 要回復當年的準度，必須砍傷害、砍瞄準時間、再砍砲彈速度，
開發人員真的不想這樣搞
- developers considered the variant, where HE shells would be split into
normal HE shells and artillery HE shells (with reduced damage), but they
considered that unrealistic
考慮過讓SPG用特殊的高爆彈（低傷）但被認為不合實際

to use them downloaded, because the sound engine did not change

have an option to disable it, as you can simply press escape to skip it

- Storm states that 9.5 will definitely come before New Year
Storm 表示 9.5 一定會在新年前推出
- according to Storm, there is no delay in work on HD models, only a delay in
their release, as there are really many vehicles in remodelling process at
the same time
據 Storm 表示，HD 建模並沒有延誤，只是同時同時處理很多台而已
- turning LT’s into “paper MT’s” by reducing their MM to normal was not
discussed by the developers
（爛建議，略）

- “very large” maps will not be implemented for now, but there will be
tests with larger maps, such as 1,2×1,2km or 1,4×1,4km. These might also
come to random battles, tests will show. These larger maps might simply be
extended original maps, the way it was made with Murovanka.
「超大」地圖目前不會出現，但會測試大型地圖（例如邊長 1.2km 或 1.4km）。依據
測試結果，可能會放入隨機戰鬥中。且很可能只是舊地圖的擴張版。
- Storm admits that many didn’t like the Murovanka rework, because a lot of
people liked camping in the forest and firing at everything that got spotted
Storm 承認許多人不喜歡新的 Murovanka，因為他們喜歡躲在森林裡黑槍

- apparently, the option of displaying the statistics of only tanks in your
hangar (the ticker that “unticks” every time) will become permanent (won’t
untick with every client restart)
只顯示車輛資料的開關將會記憶之前的設定（不用每開一次就要重設）

release
9.4測試服的音效已被放棄，也不會提供下載

not in 2015

- there will be connections (SS: bridges, links, not sure what word is used
commonly) between the old British branches and the 9.5 one
9.5 新出的英國線可由舊線接入（Valentine→Archer）
- modelling of the HD FV4202 hasn’t started yet, same goes for Chieftain –
developers are waiting for photos and other data from Bovington (SS: I heard
it was delayed, do not expect it in 9.6)

existing player bot and implementing it – the bots players use are working
client side and are unoptimized, while WG bots have to work server-side
without overloading it

優化，而官方BOT需要在伺服端運作且不能超載

planning such a mode for historical battles as well
Storm 談到之前流出的BOT模式，他們也預計在歷史戰鬥中使用
