Mandea i am not trying to be argumentitive with you. I am simply pointing out as someone who has done translation work before and continues to do so that it shouldn't take a competent translator more than a week to translate the new words from KB:AP.
I also played KB:TL many times and i have been playing KB:AP (Full Version) for over a month now. These are facts no accusations there. As to the reasons why 1C are delaying the release.... the only logical one i can come up with is that it would be quite time-consuming and expensive to patch the game in multiple languages so they are delaying the release so they wont have to do that. This is also not an accusation. It's speculation. |

The translation is only a possible reason for delay, there may be many others, but I'm not aware so I tried avoiding talking about them. We should take into consideration the fact that they need money (now more then ever), so I don't think they would delay the game should it not be for serious reasons.
and as far as I know, the translation is not an official excuse. anyway, you can play it as you already said, so what is the problem? Last edited by Mandea; 06-30-2009 at 01:39 PM. |

Well i think they should let us fans know what the "serious" problems are if there are any. NOT give us this rubbish about translations!
And yes Nike-it, good translations are more than just substituting words. But they still don't take months for a few pages of text! |

Well translating isnt so simple especialy if they come from diffrent family of languages ... like slovian -> german/english. Also we have idioms which in different languages are completly different .Same for gauges - some are funny in language A but in language B they dont.

If there is an official reason why AP is taking forever, it definitely isn't because of translation. I'm sorry, but translating isn't that time-consuming a job. We are not talking encyclopedias here.
I am curious why they would not release an English version first as I am sure that will outsell however many units they sell in Russia. I liked KB a lot. Enough that I will wait for AP and purchase it when it is released. But I honestly don't have a lot of faith in this company. The lack of hype and communication to the fanbase is extremely standoffish and out of place for a title of this sort. |
