  2. METRO2033Artjom is a nice enough guy, but he has a lot of factual errors in his videos on Metro storyline.

    I don't need it either way since I got it from bookstore in my language.

    Actually you can go and check the quality of his translation first. Then correct his mistakes, and finally release the book as revised by you&Darkbringer. ;)

    I read this guys translation a while ago. A lot of it I had to sort of guess what was going on because he makes quite a few mistakes or can't think of the right word to fit.

    Sorry to bump this, but I'm wondering if Rolfwar and Darkbringer finished their translation?

    Wow, I never knew that anyone on the forum was doing their own translation of the book. That's a very ambitious project - kudos for trying, even if you didn't get far. ;) Anyway, you won't have to worry about carrying on with that even if more people did start getting interested as a proper translation is coming like Thestalker said. I've already read the book in Polish though, so I'm sorted. :p

    I think the Wiki is a liar, because it isn't cited and a English version of 2034 still has not come out. I don't really want to learn Russian or German just to read the metro series :p

    It's not a liar. I'm pretty sure I wrote that section myself, based on news provided by someone here on the forum - which were based on an official announcement. So let me assure you: the Metro 2033 Wiki is a very reliable source of information for anything Metro-related, as it has a dedicated team of fans who contribute as much as they know and even more hard-working administrators who contribute loads as well, also remaining vigilant to protect the wikia from vandalism.

    One thing that you are correct about, however, is the fact that the official English translation of Metro 2034 has not arrived yet and is running late based on the promises made earlier.

    The hell?
    Metro 2034 came out in freaking Swedish ages ago, and you guys claim it havent even reached the ENGLISH audience?!
    I call shenanigans, Im SURE it exists in english, hey, I even think there some old thread somewhere with a old link to a Australian site where you can order the book.

    There's no english edition. They even have it in spanish now, which is the closest thing I could find.
