Truck Licensing Situation Update 車頭授權進度更新

We still owe you clarification on the initial set of trucks shipping as part of the first release of American Truck Simulator. We have been postponing this post until the last minute, as the situation could - and still can - always change (and for the better only now), but we need to be clear at last on where we are.
我們還有一些美國卡車模擬遊戲首賣版本中,關於車頭種類的細節需要說明一下。我們之所以一直等到最後一刻才說明這個情況,是因為這件事的發展一直在變化當中(而且每況愈下,只會更糟),但是總要報告一下目前我們進行到什麼程度。

Over the past year, we have been publishing quite a lot of screenshots and videos showing several in-development truck models. Our fans have quite sharp eyes and take note of all the details, so people are naturally speculating on what's coming based on those shots.
過去一年以來,我們公布許多美卡的遊戲截圖,以及數個開發中的車頭視頻。而我們的粉絲們擁有敏銳的目光,一一記下所有公布的細節。所以,很自然地依照這些資訊期待接下來的發展會如何。

Until recently, we were planning to include at least four trucks at launch, and our screenshots shown over time reflected this optimism. Unfortunately, finalizing the licensing talks and getting all the vehicles past the approval clearance is taking longer than anticipated, and you may have noticed some of those trucks no longer showing in the most recent batches of pictures from the game.
直到最近有了變化,我們原本是計劃要在首賣版本中至少包含四種車頭在內,從我們以往公布的截圖中可以看出這個安排。可是很可惜地,最後階段的授權協談以及讓所有車輛合法使用的許可細節,所花的時程超乎我們預期中的還要久。也許已經有人發現到,有些車頭早已不在我們最近公布的遊戲截圖中了。

The result is that out of the gate, the game will ship with just two trucks.
所以,我們努力到目前的結果就是,遊戲只會有兩種車頭在內。

Thanks to kind support of PACCAR group, we are happy to confirm the presence of Kenworth T 680 and Peterbilt 579 as part of the launch line-up.
感謝 帕卡(PACCAR)公司 仁慈的支援,我們很高興地確認會有 肯沃斯T680 和 彼得比尓特579 加入首發陣容之中。


肯沃斯T680      感謝 PACCAR 熱情授權

After the game is released and gets into media spotlight, we will have a very important tool in our licensing talks arsenal - a successful game (fingers crossed) aimed at the relevant market. Licensing talks are often resembling the "which came first, the chicken or the egg?" problem. To obtain a license in a highly specialized field, you just don't walk into a store and get it over the counter. Unlike car manufacturers who have extensive experience with being featured in racing games, for most truck manufacturers this is all unexplored territory. We always need to find a way inside the company to reach the decision makers at marketing/licensing department, and getting our voice noticed is not easy. Just getting the chance to get out point across is often all it takes, and with American Truck Simulator out in playable form and in the hands of customers, it gives us a crucial talking point.
等到遊戲發行了,也加入卡車藝廊之後,我們就會擁有一項談判的利器,那就是一個成功的遊戲(希望我們能做到)背後的消費市場。授權協談的過程經常像 "雞生蛋,蛋生雞" 的問題一般膠著。要從一個高度專業領域的行業裏獲得一項授權,可不比進入一個商店買東西那麼單純。不像賽車遊戲中的汽車廠商那樣,在這方面已經有許多的經驗;對大多數的車頭廠商來說,這是一個從未碰觸過的商業區塊。面對每一個公司我們總是在尋找一個管道,希望可以接觸到市場行銷和授權部門的決策者,要讓我們請求的聲音被聽到實在不容易。為了接觸到對的人經常是困難重重,這對於要讓美卡模擬遊戲完成並交到玩家手上的我們來說,實在没有太多轉圜的餘地。

When the game is out on the market already at last, when we can prove its impact on trucking fans at large, we hope for more of the truck manufacturers to pay attention, to realize that it's beneficial for them to participate, and perhaps even push us to hurry so that they are not left behind the pack. We have been through this experience with the launch of Euro Truck Simulator 2, when vocal support of our fans managed to bring the game to the attention to European truck manufacturers missing in the initial version of the game.
當遊戲推出到市場上,等我們整合起大多數玩家對遊戲的回應的時候,我們希望那時會有更多的車頭廠商注意到我們,能瞭解到有他們的參與會更好,甚至反過來催促我們希望快點加入。這些在我們推出歐卡2遊戲的時候就是這樣走過來的。當時歐卡的玩家們就聲援我們,希望不在初版歐卡2裏的車頭廠商能注意到這個遊戲。

We have progressed very well on several additional vehicles, and in the weeks after release, we are confident that will get the clearance to start adding them to the game. We will be adding them for free of course as part of regular game updates, just as is the case with the ETS2.
我們在數個其它的車輛方面進行的很不錯,我們有信心在發行後的數週內,就會開始逐步加進遊戲裏面。當然這是免費的,會以一般的更新來進行,就像歐卡2的方式一樣。

彼得比尓特389 也會很快出現在ATS中      感謝 PACCAR 提供



Now comes the time for an explicit disclaimer - any vehicles and truck brands you will see pictured below this point in text are here only for illustrative purposes, and do not constitute any guarantee that they will be appearing in the game in any particular timeframe. We have implemented them as an experiment when trying to get the door opened. As you can see some of them are already in advanced enough stage to be technically prepared for integration into the game world, yet more are semi-finished and not yet ready for integration with the game engine.
現在我們必須坦白的聲明一下:從這個段落以後,你在截圖中所看到的車頭廠牌只是為了示範目的所用,不保證它們會出現在未來任何階段的遊戲中。我們加入它們只是一個試驗,希望能打開協談的大門。其實有些已經進入準備整合進遊戲的技術階段了,但是更多還在半路上,還没有準備好整合進遊戲引擎裏。

一台由瑪雅(Maya)渲染的帥氣但半成品的車頭



Meanwhile, we are still hard at work improving Euro Truck Simulator 2. As we are showing a ton of North American vehicles today, we did not want our European fans to feel betrayed. So we thought that a teaser image of a new truck being readied for introduction to ETS2 will cheer them up today.
與此同時,我們仍然努力在完善歐卡2的系統。雖然我們目前重心都在美卡上,但我們不想歐洲的玩家覺得被抛棄了,所以在今天這個時候,我們覺得拿出一張會在ETS2中出現的新車頭的截圖當做點心圖,希望能讓歐卡玩家們高興一下。

有望看到lonestar,真是太好了。

等到魔杖开始发光,一切规则都将改变……

scs真会抢钱,到时出个欧卡地图DLC又收费

还是拿下美国各大卡车制造商的商标授权是最麻烦了,ETS 2弄欧洲各大卡车厂商标都要花3年时间了

scs真是个好公司,支持!

我也担心的就是这个,厂家愿意的话可以出现的,,,这个游戏是一个很不错的,很好的游戏,,,厂家可能愿意的话,美国路上我们看见的每个卡车都会有,,,哈哈

哇,弄個歐洲各大卡車商標要花3年時間,真令人咋舌!
希望有了歐卡的基礎之上,美卡在取得商標授權方面能幸運點。
