前言

年末了,各大平台都在出各种各样的年度报告,想着今年是炉石十周年,不妨来整理一份炉石十年来的新闻好了。

话虽如此,整理到光光整理完正式开服前的内容,就已经过了一下午了,而且自动保存也变得很卡,于是就此分段,看看各位看官喜不喜欢这种风格的文章,也顺便看看本文的排版风格有无值得改进的地方,如果反响很好,大概会有下一篇。

由于简中新闻已经尽数删除,本文只整理英文和繁中的新闻,超链接附在标题上,点击即可访问。

 

本文排版设计:

时间总是最先写,放在右上角

超链接的标题居中,对于中英文超链接都给出来的场合,

描述性文字总是最后居左

当描述性文章很长时,这样的排版容易引起误会。

不过我觉得无论怎么排版都可能引起误会,所以保留这个设计,仅在开头做出说明。

引用文章时为了图方便,也为了便于使用简中更习惯的术语,会更多使用英文+机翻润色的模式,可能会有部分翻译并不得体,还望见谅。

Hearthstone Crafting: In Dust We Trust          《爐石戰記》合成系統:以「塵」換卡

奥术之尘设计出炉

That’s Hearthstone’s Crafting system in a nutshell: grind your extra cards into precious Arcane Dust and immediately use that Dust to make the cards you want—it’s that easy! We hope you have a ton of fun crafting cards in Hearthstone to make some pretty awesome decks!

The Key to the Hearthstone Arena        成為爐石戰記的競技場宗師

"锻造"系统出炉,然后火速更名为竞技场

Hey wait a minute, wasn’t this called The Forge?
嘿等一下,这不是叫做锻造吗?

The Forge was the original name of The Arena. We decided to change it because many ****** assumed that The Forge was where you engaged in Crafting. The word “forge” invoked the imagery of creation rather than the idea you were tempering your skill (which is what we were going for), so we decided to change it to something that better captured the competitive nature—a place where you battled others.
锻造是竞技场的原名。我们决定更改它,因为许多人认为锻造是你进行制作的地方。“锻造”这个词唤起了创造的意象,而不是你在磨练技能的想法(这正是我们想要的),所以我们决定将其更改为更好地捕捉竞争性质的名称——一个你与他人对战的地方。

State of the Game          Beta 版本的現況

预热即将到来的beta版本

A lot of our discussion so far has been centered on the North American beta, so we just wanted to mention to players in Europe, Korea, and Taiwan: your feedback on the game is equally important to us! We are thus planning a dedicated beta in these regions with fully localized builds. These will follow the start of the North American beta test as closely as possible and we’re looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
到目前为止,我们的讨论主要集中在北美测试版,因此我们想对欧洲、韩国和台湾的玩家提到:你们对游戏的反馈对我们同样重要!因此,我们计划在这些地区进行专门的测试版,并提供完全本地化的版本。这些版本将尽可能紧随北美测试版的开始,我们期待听到你们的想法!

并承诺赠送金色的格尔宾·梅卡托克 

...... With that in mind, we previously noted that as a thank-you for helping us test the in-game store, we’d be offering a special token of appreciation to beta testers who make a real-money in-game purchase during the beta test. We’re pleased to reveal that that gift will be a golden version of Gelbin Mekkatorque, which will be available throughout the closed and open beta tests.
......考虑到这一点,我们之前提到过,作为感谢您帮助我们测试游戏内商店的回报,我们将向在测试期间进行真实货币游戏内购买的测试者提供一份特别的感谢礼物。我们很高兴地透露,这份礼物将是金色的格尔宾·梅卡托克 ,这将在封闭和开放测试期间提供。

Closed Beta Patch – Featured Updates - 前瞻

2013-10-02

Hearthstone™ Closed Beta Patch Notes - 实装

优化了若干设计,其中前瞻里比较引人注目的有:

Daily Quests  每日任务

We’ve gotten a lot of comments on quests. The community has discovered some fun hidden quests, but some of our daily quests have frustrated those of you who have quests that don’t correspond to your favored class. After the patch, daily quests that require you to win with a specific class will now give you a choice between two classes, allowing you some additional flexibility.
我们收到了很多关于任务的评论。社区发现了一些有趣的隐藏任务,但我们的一些日常任务让那些与自己喜欢的职业不符的玩家感到沮丧。在补丁之后,要求你用特定职业获胜的日常任务现在将让你在两个职业之间选择,给你一些额外的灵活性。

Golden Cards  金卡

Golden cards are fun to collect in Hearthstone, and a cool way to show off your accomplishments. Many golden cards have been updated with new animations, and there are still more to come. If you’ve helped test our in-game store and acquired your new forever-friend Gelbin Mekkatorque, check out his shiny new animation! In addition to the new animations to Golden cards, we have also added the ability to unlock Golden Basic minions at higher experience levels. Now you can shoot for creating a 100% golden card deck to really dazzle your opponent!
在《炉石传说》中,金色卡牌很有趣,收集它们是一种展示成就的酷炫方式。许多金色卡牌已经更新了新的动画,未来还会有更多。如果你帮助测试了我们的游戏内商店并获得了你新的永远的朋友格尔宾·梅卡托克 ,快来看看他闪亮的新动画吧!除了金色卡牌的新动画,我们还增加了在更高经验等级解锁金色基础随从的能力。现在你可以努力创建一个 100%金色卡牌的牌组,真正让你的对手眼前一亮!

The rate that you acquire gold has been one of the other most-commented on topics on our forums. This patch will improve the gold output of Play mode, changing the gold generation rate from 5 gold per five wins to 10 gold per three wins. We will be monitoring this update as we progress further into closed beta and will continue to make changes as needed.
你获得金币的速度一直是我们论坛上讨论最多的话题之一。这个补丁将改善游戏模式的金币产出,将金币生成率从每五场胜利获得 5 金币改为每三场胜利获得 10 金币。随着我们进一步进入封闭测试,我们将监控此更新,并根据需要继续进行更改。

Hearthstone™ Closed Beta Patch Notes - Become a Legend!          《爐石戰記™》更新檔1.0.0.4217版:成為傳奇!

All players first stepping foot into the revamped Ranked Play mode will start at Rank 25: Angry Chicken. In Ranked Play, you’ll be pitted against opponents equal to or as close to your rank as possible. You and your opponent’s ranks will be visible to each other as you battle. Every time you find yourself victorious against your opponent, you’ll gain a star above your medal. Collect enough stars, and you’ll eventually find yourself attaining the next rank—Rank 24: Leper Gnome. There are 25 different ranks to attain, starting at Angry Chicken and going up to Rank 1: Innkeeper.
所有首次进入改版排位赛模式的玩家将从 25 级:愤怒的小鸡开始。在排位赛中,你将与与自己等级相等或尽可能接近的对手对战。你和对手的等级在战斗中将彼此可见。每当你战胜对手时,你的奖牌上会增加一颗星星。收集足够的星星后,你最终将晋升到下一个等级——24 级:麻风侏儒。共有 25 个不同的等级,从愤怒的小鸡开始,一直到 1 级:旅店老板。

Once you become a Rank 1: Innkeeper with five stars to your name, another win will push you into a special rank: Legend. Legend rank will be represented by a Legendary orange mana crystal with a number in the middle of it. That number tells you exactly where you rank against other players in your region. If your Legend rank shows the number 300, you’re the 300th best Hearthstone player in your region.
一旦你成为一名五星级的 1 级旅店老板,另一次胜利将使你晋升到一个特殊的等级:传说。传说等级将由一个中间有数字的传奇橙色法力水晶表示。这个数字准确地告诉你在你所在地区与其他玩家的排名。如果你的传说等级显示数字 300,那么你就是你所在地区第 300 名最优秀的炉石传说玩家。

Hearthstone's Card Balance Philosophy          《爐石戰記》的卡牌平衡哲學

文章较长,只对其中的小标题做个摘要,实际上文中围绕下列标题展开了好几点:

With that said, let’s get into how we approach Hearthstone card balance. A card can be changed for a lot of reasons:
话虽如此,让我们来看看我们如何处理《炉石传说》卡牌平衡。卡牌可以因多种原因进行更改:

A card causes non-interactive games
一张卡片导致非互动游戏

A card is frustrating to play against
对抗一张牌令人沮丧

A card is causing confusion or isn’t intuitive enough
一张卡片引起了混淆或不够直观

A card is too strong compared to other cards of that cost
一张卡牌与其他同费卡牌相比太强了

A specific build or style of play is too strong
某种特定的构建或玩法风格太强了

A card is too weak
一张卡牌太弱了

Hearthstone Patch Notes - 1.0.0.4944 - All That Glitters! - 一切闪耀

Ride Into Action on Your Hearthsteed!          騎著爐石戰馬衝鋒陷陣

Welcome to the Hearthstone Launch!          

2014-03-14

《爐石戰記®》更新資訊:1.0.0正式版──爐石新體驗!

正式服开启,魔兽炉石天马联动开启

正式服中,这些改动是引人注目的:

首先是500胜奖励:

We first announced our plans for Ranked Play rewards at BlizzCon during our Fireside Chat panel, and now they’re ready to be unleashed!  First off we’ve got the Golden Heroes. 
我们首先在暴雪嘉年华的炉边聊天小组中宣布了我们对排名游戏奖励的计划,现在它们准备好发布了!首先,我们有黄金英雄。

To get a Golden Hero of your very own, all you need to do is win 500 Ranked Play games with any given Hero. After you hit 500 wins, your experienced Hero will gain a gold border, animate, and gain a golden animated Hero Power. Your opponent will be able to see your Golden Hero as well! Impress your friends and opponents alike. Check out the awesome animations on Jaina, Garrosh, and Thrall in this video!
要获得属于自己的黄金英雄,您只需用任何给定的英雄赢得 500 场排位赛。达到 500 场胜利后,您经验丰富的英雄将获得金色边框,动画效果,并获得一个金色动画英雄技能。您的对手也能看到您的黄金英雄!给您的朋友和对手留下深刻印象。请在这个视频中查看吉安娜、加尔鲁什和萨尔的精彩动画!

赛季卡背:

The next Ranked Play reward is the extra fancy alternate card back! Participating in each official Ranked Play season will offer a new card back that you’ll get at the end of each season. Card backs replace the default artwork on the reverse side of your decks. The game interface will allow you to easily swap between any card back you’ve added to your collection. More information about the first official Ranked Play season and its card back rewards will be announced at a later time. 
下一个排名比赛奖励是额外华丽的替代卡背!参加每个官方排名比赛赛季将提供一个新的卡背,您将在每个赛季结束时获得。卡背会替换您牌组背面的默认艺术作品。游戏界面将允许您轻松切换到您已添加到收藏中的任何卡背。有关第一个官方排名比赛赛季及其卡背奖励的更多信息将稍后公布。

早期的额外星星:

With this patch, you’ll receive bonus stars at the start of each season based on your performance from the previous season. This way, players that have progressed far into any given Ranked Play season will not be challenging those potentially new to the game or stomping all over players who are trying Ranked Play for the first time.
通过这个补丁,您将在每个赛季开始时根据您上个赛季的表现获得额外的星星。这样,已经在任何给定的排位赛季中取得进展的玩家将不会挑战那些可能是新手的玩家,也不会对那些第一次尝试排位赛的玩家造成压制。

You’ll receive one bonus star for each rank you achieved in the previous season. For example, if you attained Legend, Innkeeper (Rank 1), or Black Knight (Rank 2) rank in any given season, at the start of the next season you would start off at Questing Adventurer (Rank 16) rather than Angry Chicken (Rank 25).
您将在上个赛季中获得的每个排名中获得一个额外的星星。例如,如果您在任何给定赛季中达到了传奇、旅店老板(排名 1)或黑骑士(排名 2),那么在下个赛季开始时,您将以探险者(排名 16)开始,而不是愤怒的鸡(排名 25)。

重连机制:

Stay Connected!  保持链接!

A reconnect feature has been added to Hearthstone! Whether you’re in the middle of a heated match in Ranked or Casual Play or racking up the wins in the Arena, our reconnect feature will allow you to try to seamlessly get back into your game in progress.
《炉石传说》新增了重新连接功能!无论您是在排位赛或休闲游戏中进行激烈对战,还是在竞技场中赢得胜利,我们的重新连接功能将允许您尝试无缝地重新进入正在进行的游戏。

If you’re disconnected from a game, the reconnect feature will give you 60 seconds to re-log into Hearthstone to keep the action going. In order to maintain the fast pace of the game for both you and your opponent, if one of you happens to disconnect mid-match, the game will continue as if either of you were still playing. Try not to be gone too long, or that turn timer may be sizzling down when you get back!
如果您与游戏断开连接,重新连接功能将给您 60 秒的时间重新登录《炉石传说》,以保持游戏的进行。为了保持您和对手的游戏节奏,如果您中的一人恰好在比赛中断开连接,游戏将继续进行,就好像您仍在玩一样。尽量不要离开太久,否则当您回来时,回合计时器可能会迅速减少!

不同区服:

You can now connect to other regions (Americas, Europe, Korea, Taiwan) of Hearthstone regardless of the region that is set on your Battle.net account. Account progress and card collections are saved separately per region. This feature will become available once the patch is live in all regions. 
您现在可以连接到《炉石传说》的其他地区(美洲、欧洲、韩国、台湾),而不受您 Battle.net 账户上设置的地区限制。账户进度和卡牌收藏会按地区单独保存。此功能将在所有地区的补丁上线后可用。

此外,大概还有一个值得一提的游戏性改动:

Secrets can now only activate on your opponent’s turn.
奥秘现在只能在对手的回合激活。

    • Activating your own secrets feels a little strange, but mostly, the ability to do this was preventing us from creating new and powerful secrets that trigger off of events you can easily control (like a minion dying).  They end up functioning just like spells, instead of trying to bait your opponent into a bad play.  This change keeps secrets working like traps you lay for your opponent, instead of spells that you cast and use on your own turn.
      激活你自己的奥秘感觉有点奇怪,但主要是,这种能力阻止我们创造新的强大秘密,这些奥秘会在你可以轻松控制的事件(比如一个随从死亡)触发。它们最终的功能就像法术,而不是试图引诱你的对手犯错。这一变化使得奥秘像你为对手设置的陷阱一样运作,而不是你在自己回合施放和使用的法术。

结语

肯定有人要问:笔者是有怎样惊人的毅力才翻到官方新闻的最末页的。

其实是用了爬虫,爬完了英文和繁中的新闻重新生成了一个本地的网页。

风格大概是这样:
