In one week, the day we have all been looking forward to for so long will finally be here, and the Scandinavia map expansion for Euro Truck Simulator 2 will be released.
What took us so long? It's fair to admit that we have taken much longer to build it than we planned. We are pursuing a lot of goals at the same time, perhaps more than is healthy for a predictable, robust release schedule.
一周後，我們一直期待已久的那天即將到來，ETS2斯堪地那維亞擴展地圖將要釋出。
是什麼讓我們花了那麼長時間？老實說，我們比計畫花了更多時間在建構上。我們同時追求很多目標，也許比一個可預見的、健全的發布計畫更多。
In the past two years, we have doubled the man-power in the company, but we have quadrupled the number of projects we try to handle at the same time. Some of the focus was traded for wider reach. We are committed to expanding ETS2 world with more areas, we have started working on American Truck Simulator, we have several people working on coach buses project, we have the long-term vision for World of Trucks to become the ultimate trucking -game with persistent massive-multiplayer online capabilities. We have experimented with virtual reality, we dedicated time to create better tools for the modders, we talk to way more transportation-related companies now about having their brands appear in our games. In the middle of this all, a core team of engineers is constantly working on upgrading our in-house game engine, to improve the graphics and sound capabilities, teach the AI new tricks, make the physics simulation more detailed, while introducing new features and tools for the content creation team - only to have them live through the pain of having to re-do parts of the work to upgrade to the new data formats and processes.
在過去兩年裡，我們公司已經增加一倍人力，但同時我們嘗試處理的項目數量卻增加兩倍。為了更廣泛的延伸，一些重點被更換了。

所有的這一切：工程師核心團隊不斷致力於升級公司內部遊戲引擎、提升圖像及聲音性能、教AI車新花招、使物理仿真更精緻、同時為內容創作團隊引進新的功能和工具--不過是為了讓他們度過為了升級到新的數據格式及過程而不得不重做部分工作的痛苦。
We thought that after over 15 years of making games, we were quite experienced, but switching from the mode of small company with a start-up mindset into a bigger multi-project team has not been an easy ride; obviously we still have a lot to learn. The good thing is, we are still around, stronger than ever, with multiple projects staffed by passionate development teams who want to see them through to completion, and even if the wait was long, we still managed to nurture a very loyal hardcore fan community motivating us in turn to keep pushing.
我們以為在超過15年的遊戲製作經驗後，我們已經很有經驗，但由一家初創思維的小公司模式進入一個更大的多重項目團隊模式的切換一直不輕鬆；很顯然我們仍有很多需要學習。好消息是，我們仍然有，甚至更堅強的熱情的開發團隊，他們希望看到這些複合式項目完成，而且即便等待如此漫長，我們仍成功培養了一個非常忠誠的鐵桿粉絲社群激勵我們不斷前進。
The next few days are going to be very hectic for us. We are still polishing the 1.17 update to be released early next week, we are working on zero-day update for Scandinavia to make sure it's as optimized as possible on release, we are preparing to re-launch the Euro Truck Simulator 2 website with all new presentation graphics, we have to orchestrate the release of multiple "SKUs" across many digital and retail channels, while loudly trumpeting the PR message that the Scandinavia DLC is better than
sliced bread. (Not to speak about having to arrange for
an open beta test of update 1.18 which will start immediately after Scandinavia release, wink wink, so that the Mercedes-Benz New Actros truck is introduced into the game at last without additional delays!)
未來幾天我們將非常忙碌。
