Alright. Got a general card for it started. It'll be kinda like a draft for now and can be edited w/ more ideas and changes as well as needed. Let me know if anything needs changing or clarity 
Card for reference: https://trello.com/c/bAbqRM3K/630-popups-and-windows-elements-feedback

How about being able to set your time zone for all resets (shop,comissions,etc. except exercises)?
For expample one of the shop resets happens always when I'm sleeping
junior turret
So in the settings for options there should be a scrollbar because I was a bit lost on where to turn on "Custom ship name"
jade surge
individual time zone resets are impossible without opening the door for heavy cheating

With a month cooldown?
jade surge
well the server would have to keep track of every timezone on each account and we dont know how much overhead that costs to do
rare jay
Well it might be pretty hard to do and the devs would need to work out all the ways it could be abused, but it's been suggested in our "Night Commission" card. I just got it updated w/ the idea for it to count shops and etc as well https://trello.com/c/NeqLn7mg/64-night-commissions-time-is-not-convenient-for-a-lot-of-people-multiple-suggestions
void schooner
They'd probably have to make it a one-time setting to prevent abuse.
jade surge
the server would still have to keep track of it though, which is the problem
rare jay
@junior turret Also, I got your suggestion added to our "Popup and Window Feedback" card

Thank you once again

are there any chances bismark barrage is bugged? i used her quite a bit and her barrage reach seems way too low compared to other ships that have similar barrages (kaga bb and washi). in pvp her barrage barely reaches the opponent main fleet with the middle shoots and the shoots on the sides fall way too short. my bismark barrage level is only 5 but i don't that should affect the reach of the barrage
also someone else said that on defense bismark barrage doesn't reach main fleet and hit the water in between mainfleet and vg

historically speaking , it should be God Save the King as KGV were the leader of HMS during that time while KG VI were the leader of British , not the current Queen

siren time shenanigans meant that Queen Elizabeth II was in power at the age of 14 when this happened - brought to you by #al-lore gang

So hood isn't actually referring to QE the battleship?

i mean even still, QE is in power at age 14 is true whether you mean the ship or the person

Meh, if loli Nagato can be the Sakura fleet leader, I don't think having Queen Elizabeth lead the royals unheard of
And having child Monarchs wouldn't be unrealistic either since that happened a fair number of times in history

Since the UI update, 18:9 support has been added to the game everywhere except in battle where black bars still appear (16:9). If in battles the game could use 17:9 aspect ratio there would be less black bars and UI elements would not be covered by the notch (the UI elements would be just right next to the notch). This would make the game look even better on newer phones so please use 17:9 aspect ratio for battles so the black bar size can be reduced
Also if the back button could move to the right a little bit it would make it easier to reach/tap on newer bigger aspect ratio phones

Ranking leaderboards for medals and total fleet tech points? Doesn't sound like a bad idea right
quartz cipher
This is very minor, and maybe only an issue on iPhones and may display properly elsewhere, but the enemy ship names getting cut off by the level number and not scrolling all the way to see the full name - instead finishing scrolling when the first letter hits the right side and not once it has shown everything - just doesn’t look good.
And because of it, we can’t enjoy the names of the enemies.
Ex: the large Siren in B1 in heavy recon fleets only displays “Peace Bre” at full scroll, if you can even get the full scroll since it sometimes resets even if it’s the only enemy on screen.

Yeah, it's been noted for the devs to look at b/c it's pretty unreadable for the most part

Hello, just wondering if it was intentional to exclude all additions to the normal build pool in the wishing well? (Abercrombie, Montpelier, etc) It’s disappointing to see that JP players can wish for subs.

why does nobody respond to me

It was based on the date added

@velvet adder Yes it was. There was a cut off date for Wishing. Characters needed to be added before that date. It's posted w/in the patch notes

Feedback: In the UI update, the word used to equip a set of gear to a ship changed from "Load" (or Equip?) to "Skin". This makes the functionality unclear/confusing in what it is supposed to do.

normal vine
I'd have a UI-request - for non-boss ships, could the level be moved further to the right, and the name be displayed left-aligned instead of scrolling in from the right? as it is right now, it's almost impossible to get the names of Production type ships, especially when your fleet is switching between targets quickly
shy pond
Suggestion:Improve Izumo's second skill to not include the increased chance of catching fire and longer burning, or to reduce all damage taken by 30% (even with the longer fires applying, this would still help her survivability against HE quite a lot) . Right now she has a skill which on story.maps makes her worse than without the skill. AP has fairly niche uses against backliners and practically does not exist outside of events and PvP. This would make her a far more useful ship to actually get.
velvet adder
After UI update it's really hard to use the scroll bar in the dock/depot screen. I'd like to request for this scroll bar width size to be slightly enhanced.
slate monolith
The only regret is that you can only refresh the thech research once a day, so I got a set that involved money I don't really have to another set of money I don't really have
velvet adder
@slate monolith its been suggested iirc. the guy that suggested added the use of gems to refresh the research

I know, I kind of brought that up when the RNGods did this to me for the first time around

@shy pond Izumo's skill complaints were known for a longest time. When Fate Simulation system was introduced, devs had chance to remove this demerit, yet they chose not to, so we can assume it means this "quirk" of hers is not going anywhere.
@velvet adder UI scale is a known complaint. About second suggestion about oil - it was suggested.
cursive plank
@shy pond I already suggested a potential way to fix that problem
https://trello.com/c/Na3jzeV5/624-increase-the-number-of-enemies-that-use-ap-type-weapons
Granted that wouldn't help in story mode as the enemy are IJN
sturdy rapids
i like the oil being shown in the fleet selection window suggestion. Cant find the suggestion in trello tho
sturdy rapids
could just suck at searching, all i did was filter with the word oil
shy pond
@cursive plank Izumo having a buff while having the fires remain a weakness would be the best course of action. Or introducing a better damacon equip, but we can't suggest that, can we? Restart, I'd still appreciate if you added the card under "Improve Izumo's second skill to include damage reduction for all shell types, but not fires" this would improve her niche of being tanky and retain the weakness to HE to a lesser extent
sturdy rapids
yeah, just me sucking at search then. Thanks restart
shy pond
I would say that what I state above (you may have missed it) makes for a far better point to improve Izumo, Restart
cursive plank
@shy pond well any enemy shooting AP or Normal is an enemy not shooting HE, you gotta remember that, so shifting a few enemies away from HE is already a huge improvement for her situation
naive cobalt
Well, I can include whatever, as long as you understand it has almost 0 chance be implemented, so sure

@hallow tulip Already written up as a bug https://trello.com/c/G7Qh96kR/712-observer
hallow tulip
o i c my b sorry
coral ivy
The ratio of skill types is way too skewed in this game and skill books seem to have an equivalent drop rate among each other, this makes for a massive imbalance in the number of skill books of each type a person would have if they were intending to raise skills of a multitude of ships.
There are way too many red skills, considerable number of yellow skills and barely any blue skills. And on top of that, actually useful blue skills are ever rarer like Shoukaku, Ayanami Retrofit or Graf Z, while other blue skills like Vice Def or AA buff on the Cleveland class or Rotating Shields, while having their uses, are mostly just whatever.
Some method to balance out either skill types or skill books should be devised, I can think of a few options so I'll list them but there's always more ideas that people could come up with.
-
Change book drop rates (I say drop but basically rates at which they are obtained from any source) to somewhat match the quantity of skills of the given type exist, for example -
50% Red, 35% Yellow, 15% Blue (this is an example, I have not researched the exact number of skills of each type available either in EN or other servers) -
Give us an option to trade books within the same tier, for example -
2 yellow books for 1 red book
3 yellow books for 2 red books, since that'd be the same xp for less time taken, as mentioned in comments below
.
- Just remove skill types. While they are meant to be of Offensive (Red), Defensive (Blue) and Buff (Yellow) type of skills, there already exist skills which do multiple types of things while being the same colour, for example -
Shoukaku's Blue skill (sorry I don't remember all the names) gives both defensive as well as offensive buffs.
Ayanami Retrofit's Blue Skill gives herself a defensive boost while also being a barrage.
Hood's Barrage (Red) is a barrage while also providing a team buff.
Since there's already multi-type skills and all, there's also this option of just removing the typings and letting any book just give 150/450/1200 xp to any skill.
On a side note, about 3), I think it'd be cool if such skills could actually be leveled up by either types of skill books, for example -
Blue OR Red book for Ayanami Retrofit's Barrage
Red OR Yellow book for Hood's Barrage
Blue OR Yellow book for Shoukaku's skill
And they could have the skill colour/border (whatever it is in the new UI) be a half and half of both colours, that'd be interesting.
Again, there could be more ideas, these are just what came to my mind, feel free to give your thoughts whoever reads this.
hallow tulip
I personally disagree, while theres an overwhelming amount of red skills most of them suck and once you get the few ships that have good red skills youre basically done, meanwhile youll forever be leveling pvp skills like hiryuu's last counter or operation rainbow on eld then PR ships' etc.., i end up with about the same number of skill books for every category.
coral ivy
I respect your views but the opening line of my feedback mentions multitude of ships. What you say is absolutely true and valid but both PvP and PvE have their metas, and meta ships are extremely limited. Even for PvP there wouldn't be more than a few ships that'd need to be raised, you could only come up with so many names yourself and as such, my feedback is essentially for a very different approach to the game than yours.
copper geyser
Well trading books on 2:1 ratio wouldn't really be worth as you could get 1600 xp vs 1200 xp by just using the books without trading
coral ivy
That's true
hallow tulip
you need to look at it less like other types of books are unviable and more like certain types of books give an extra bonus
copper geyser
3:2 would give the same xp value but save time so that'd maybe be worth if there was no skills on the other category you want to lvl up
hallow tulip
you also need to think from the devs POV since it is a gacha game and making you grind or come back daily for stuff is the whole point
copper geyser
and yeah I feel like the trading isn't really that necessary since you can always use other type of books which kinda has the same effect as trading books
coral ivy
2:1 is a bad idea yeah, but if there was a ratio which would benefit either time or xp i think it'd be nice
I don't play regularly, but not casually either, it's somewhere in between. And since the gacha rates in this game are quite generous and there's a lot of ships I want to make "useful" I try to get a lot of skills up. As such, I've noticed for longer than a whole month I'm always at 0-5 tier 3 Red/Yellow books at any given time while my tier 3 Blue book count keeps rising and it's above 60 right now, And I've got literally nothing else to raise. I've raised all the AA skills of the USS CLs, raised the Vice Defs, Even raised Javelin's skills and the blue count keeps going up every day. While they can still be used certainly, It just feels unbalanced to have so many of one type of books piling because of the lack of that skill type on the ships in general.
In fact I have less Red/Yellow T2 books than I have Blue T3 books right now
hallow tulip
i mean you can literally make the same arguement for the equipment pieces
coral ivy
And what's stopping you?
hallow tulip
T3 torpedo parts if you play normaly you probably have like 500
because i recognise its a gacha game and devs will want to retain grinding to certain point
if they didnt want a gacha game with grinding they wouldnt make one
coral ivy
The thing about Plates is that while it is somewhat dependant on RNG, you can still change the outcome a lot by selecting which Fleets you engage. So it isn't exactly a comparable point tbh.
honest rune
At least plates can be farmed every day other than 3 times every 3 day + sunday for books
hallow tulip
you dont need 56 books for 1 level
coral ivy
Also about the gacha point, I'm just giving feedback about one singular part of the game where the supply is normally quite limited. I have not talked about plates or PR boat blueprints from Research Missions for the same reason that you defend the "gacha" concept of the game and i think that's fair enough.
If you do not wish to see someone else's point about their playstyle not being about building just 12 ships for PvE and 10 for PvP, then that's alright. But it's a feedback being given so that's all there is.
naive cobalt
I actually disagree with this suggestion and disagree a lot.
First, just basic idea of it. 50% bonus for matching skill colour with book colour is a bonus. Not a penalty if you don't do it. Skills not having same proportions as book types means now there's decision making and priority involved. Is this skill important enough to be rushed with same colour red books? Or is it fine to use more abundant blue books? Maybe I should go ahead and rush some blue skills, that are less important for me, but acts as a time filler as sorts, letting you balance amount of books a bit more.
Now to actual suggestions:
- What would quantify this drop rate? Will it fluctuate with every ship released? What if actually need blue books, but game decided that "rng is gonna be good for me", so only gives me red books, because "you see, out of all 350~ ships we have in game, majority have red skills, tough luck."
- 3:2 is absolute no. Any trade should include player losing on value, but gaining convenience. If you notice how T1 -> T2 conversion works, you lose half the exp you would've got, but it's a lot faster and you need to feed new book only in 4 hours, not every 2. With "3:2" you losing absolutely nothing and just straight up getting same value faster.
- Is good suggestion, but too radical and would never make into the game. I will still add it tho, because I agree that skill colours are seemingly random, so it's more hassle than it's worth.
hallow tulip
with all the things going on lately the books are the least of what devs should look into honestly
naive cobalt
coral ivy

Besides it's a feedback for the game, doesn't mean it will automatically take high priority and just get shoved in devs' face before they sort out the more pressing issues such as UI or bugs. There's already a list of feedback as is and I don't expect them to see it in the near future anyway. Nevertheless, that's no reason why a player shouldn't make a feedback.

Just here for a stupid suggestion, could you make some girls' portrait (for example KGV and Bismarck) in a bit higher resolution? They are pixel-ish, and considering how important they are it's kinda sad.

Please make more ways to get gold/coins or increase the amount of gold drop after each battle
Every big event like this one, gold is always gone faster than cube
shell bramble
Not to take away value from your feedback, but I'm curious if you've hit commander level 80 yet. I've felt a noticeable difference in the passive gold generation once I hit that in the last couple of weeks
analog jay
Im lvl 83 btw, the income and outcome is noticeable
After battle it only gives less than 100 gold
While gold, is almost used in anything
void schooner
It always feels that way if you're burning gold just as fast you get it. Though, I do somewhat agree with your sentiments. If anything, it's the cargo fleets that need to be dropping more gold than usual (which I believe I've seen mentioned before). Gives you a little more of a reason to bother with them.
lyric maple
will we get any compensation for the ridiculous dorm set this event? even if we can't get the exclusive furniture past event end, can the rest at least be extended? can we get a considerable number of free/very easily obtainable (at least 500) extra decor tokens to give us a chance?
shell bramble
What would you be compensated for?
tardy arch
"ridiculous dorm set" wait what? 
void schooner
I think the missing word is "expensive".
tardy arch
it's not that expensive.
shell bramble
The current dorm set for the event costs 3090 tokens, which some players have expressed dissatisfaction with, especially as it came with no heads up right behind another timed furniture set
lyric maple
& the fact that it's limited and there is an exclusive item you can only get if you buy the entire thing
tardy arch
i can kinda see that but when has an event gone by without having it's own dorm set to go with it?
lyric maple
other dorm sets are much cheaper and didn't come right after a feature saying "spend as many dorm tokens as you can!!"
tardy arch
and no you don't need to buy it all. just buy the base set and you get the item.
lyric maple
just the base set is too expensive to be possible in 3 weeks
also, most dorm sets just aren't as nice as this one or have no incentive to buy the whole set, i would usually only buy a couple items from every other dorm set but i'm dry after kizuna
nocturne panther
doesn't one-tap purchase have exactly the items necessary for the reward
and it costs 3090 tokens
shell bramble
I can understand being upset with that decision, and there's been feedback submitted expressing dissatisfaction. I'm just not sure what you would be compensated for.
lyric maple
3090 is too many to get in 3 weeks
tardy arch
ya. that's what i was talking about as the "base set"
rare jay
Restart has gathered a lot of feedback regarding the dorm set and I'm sure the EN team has gotten plenty themselves so the discontent from some players is known. But regarding if there'll be changes to the dorm set or compensation, we dont know yet. Thatll be up to the devs
nocturne panther
Yes, and that's what I'm getting at: 3090 tokens / 21 days is 147-148 tokens/day, for which you would need to farm at least a few hours non-stop during around 00:00 PDT and 12:00 PDT to snatch a lot of urgent commissions to have more chances at obtaining a lot of tokens at once
tardy arch
so it's possible but not practical.
lyric maple
and it's just kinda "too bad" if you have things to do in your life that require you to be away from wifi or to just not rudely be on your phone the whole time
tardy arch
i admit it was a bit cheap of them to release a dorm set right before the big event dorm set but i refer to my original statement. it should be expected by now.
lyric maple
i would probably make an effort to farm for tokens if it were possible to do while still being alive
i need to get sleep and have a family and go out sometimes
most people have work and school which is even worse
shell bramble
Part of their model is to try and encourage you to if you don't spend 24/7 in the game, after all

Kinda ruins the perception of the game being F2P-friendly when EN just began its life, but I dunno...
lyric maple
my mum gets mad at me when i spend money on microtransactions, so i'll just make another piece of feedback -
a way to buy gems that isn't through google play and ideally is somewhat discreet
tardy arch
it is f2p friendly. but they still gotta push a bit. though not like this.
you can get gems for free. though it's rng on top of rng to get them.
lyric maple
also, a way to gift gems would be nice - under the conditions that they'd be gems from shop and not just playing, and first time purchase bonus wouldn't be applied, etc
tardy arch
letting people buy gems for others can go very wrong.
shell bramble
Also, it's mostly cosmetic / the mechanic affected is passive XP accumulation for some ships. It's not the same as, say, an event requirement to spend 300 cubes
lyric maple
that's true, but for people who like collecting dorm items the same way we like collecting shipgirls, needing to wait for a rerun in who knows how many months-years just to complete one of the best sets is a bit sad
shell bramble
That's definitely understandable. Hopefully they decide to tweak some stuff, once they're back in office
tardy arch
um... don't you need to fully limit break all event ships to get a aux for bis? so yes the event is asking you spend as many cubes as you can to get the ships.
tardy arch
idk what it is then. event won't tell me.
shell bramble
LB all ships rewards a chat border who chats in game?
The Aux is from doing the sub mini games 7 times
There's a separate set of feedback for that requirement as well
tardy arch
it looked like an aux.
still the game is asking you to spend cubes to get it.
spice mango
I'd like the feature where the dock is sorting ship by rarity instead of the default level sorting
Or at least the game is able to "remember" which sort type it's set on after closing the game
I prefer sorted by rarity rather than level, and manually switching is a chore for me everytime i open my game

stark narwhal

keen sedge
I did search and find the trello card for this but given it's age (October 18th 2018) and the fact this is the second biggest UX problem in EN AL to me I am going to say my spiel here anyway while I wait for this research commission to finish. My suggestion is different too anyway.
Quick equip is effectively useless since it can't pull equipment off ships. To me it would actually be useful for more than remembering what was equipped if it would present a list of ships from which you could choose to take the equipment from when there is none in inventory along with the option to manually select something else from inventory.

Oh yeah, anyone mentioned about sorting based on cost yet?

I love that the description is
nearly the same exact question.
slender mica
I had a look at the trello cards but didn't notice this yet.
I wanted to give a negative feedback on the new dailies/weeklies "optimization" that were applied today.
Previously the dailies would provide you with a total of 6 cubes after clearing them (allowing to save 5 if you did 1 light build per day).
Currently the dailies will only give you 2 cubes (allowing you to save at most 1 cube if you do light build).
This really feels like something that is intended to push people to buy cubes from shop to stockpile them
clear heron
Huh? Currently there are 3 daily missions to give me 3 cubes, what mission changes are you speaking of?
naive cobalt
1 cube for mission for clearing a fight
which unlocks
2 for missions for 1) 3 wins and 2) 1 A rank win
1 for mission for 1 build
it's still there
it literally wasn't changed
clear heron
actually, speaking of which, the claim 1 victory and 3 and A ranking are all unlocked at once, is that the optimization?
copper geyser
Well they are all available right away, that was the only change
solemn citrus
I thought it was 4/day before. One win, one win with A, 3 wins, and build one
copper geyser
Pretty sure you didn't get 6 cubes before
slender mica
That's sincerely weird, i got the cube from build and the cube from 3 victories
I'll check again tomorrow making sure to slowly click on the redeem reward button to double check
naive cobalt
this is my screenshot from clearing a map right after reset https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/510275529925197824/582468214169141281/unknown.png?width=719&height=405
solemn citrus
I still wish the items were condensed. Seeing so many of the same item spread out is kinda annoying
slender mica
Sorry, going by your recount above before the screenshot that still comes up to 4 cubes in total.
I'm pretty sure old cubes were 6 per day
solemn citrus
There was only 4/day before. One extra if you have the Trade License
naive cobalt
they weren't
here's old not updated info from wiki
only these 4 missions give you cubes
slender mica
While you kindly were sharing the screenshots i was looking at the same thing and I'm a bit concerned that I'm unable to realize that for the past 5 months i always thought i was getting 6 cubes per day instead of 4 (without trade license).
Thanks for correcting my feedback
smoky robin
u can get cubes from commission so u probably got them there
slender mica
I had the misguided impression i was getting them from quests

Has it been suggested before to omit weekly missions from the "collect all" function? Cuz I like to only claim them (specificlly those that give bulins) at the end of the week due to low dock space.
smoky robin
- the give daily reward for hard mode card is redundant since it was added today.
- I didn’t find it so I suggest adding drag and drop to switch positions of the ships on Hardmode and maybe even on normal maps.

It would be great if there'd be more oil in daily rewards. We save for several days only to spam them for a day, then back on saving for a long time. Rinse and repeat.
oil inconsistency.
slender mica
I feel oil is very dependant on your lvl, your fleet composition and goals (e.g. grind A, mine B, progress C, etc...)
visual lintel
thorn musk
im at lvl 92 with max oil of 10k. I only used that oil in a day and a half.
im sitting at only 700 oil right now, hardly even lasting an hour to play the game.
it's either i dont play for a long time to save again or deal with this draught.
slender mica
I had 16k at start of event, to maximize progression i burned 14k in two days to get first SP bonus. Aside from that hyper push, i find myself ok with bare minimum grind for event (2k tokens daily). Today i spent 2240 oil between dailies and grind.
Passive is 2100 daily iirc and commission brought me back up +2k
thorn musk
slender mica
I would agree with you if you had lower lvl as i remember i was oil starved when pushing lvls of shikikan and fleets. Might be a valid feedback for younger shikikans
thorn musk
oil coming from commission ain't enough that's my point. I wouldn't be bothering myself here if it's not an important stuff.
just a suggestion
slender mica
Hmmm are you also doing nightly commisions?
thorn musk
yes
crude iris
What lvl r u???
slender mica
On average i get 1.5k oil from commissions I'm 87
thorn musk
lvl92.
crude iris
Oh r u burning through it by using high oil cost fleets??
thorn musk
no, ofc not.
slender mica
I wasn't criticising your suggestion. Just trying to understand your underlying issue (oil starvation is caused by the goal you set yourself in the end)
thorn musk
kek, rip oil consistency.
nearly even done with the weekly mission and still having less than enough
wat the heck would 70-100 oils from commission would even do nor the 140-200.
rip game. im done
slender mica
You clearly spent less than me for today.
Well, it depends on the actual fleet. If you give too much, early players will drown in oil and/or be forced to buy curry because they can't burn oil that fast.
If I were to think of a slight addition to your suggestion it could maybe be to add "scaling".
E.g. reward oil based on lvl
Though i feel that could open another can of worms
thorn musk
i spent most of my oil before monday cuz of the current event. I used less since there aren't enough to keep me playing. I can't play with 0 oil.
viscid halo
If I may weigh in here, Im currently at 18k event points, and this is the amt of oil I have left.
Its all about finding your oil/efficiency, which is part of the game
if you are gonna run full SSR fleets, you will obviously have a oil problem.
slender mica
I'm at 17k and have 4k oil + 20k oil reserve in mail.
I just run the bare minimum to get 2k token per day with B1-2-3, SP daily and the usual dailies+subs
analog jay
did my suggestion to increase gold drop in battle not noticed?
slender mica
I agree that it depends on your compo and goal. I do agree though that younger shikikans might be oil starved compared to more aged ones who don't need to lvlup + grind event.

don't give me that. full SR fleet at high lvl? lol. Nice resources this game got. Cheapstake commissions with cheapstake rewards.

I had another look at Trello and didn't find the anything similar to the following suggestion:
Allow players to view the drop table for each construction queue (when I used the "wish" event, i was able to view for the first time the "real" drop table for each queue. Well... except for the ships added after 23/3).
Only being able to see 2-3 banner ships doesn't help players to make a choice unless they look on the wiki or other online resources for the construction drop tables.
naive cobalt
was suggested https://trello.com/c/Ynr0BoHE/14-list-of-buildable-ships

what about my previous suggestion:
- the "reward for using hardmode" card is redundant since it was added today.
- I didn’t find it so I suggest adding drag and drop to switch positions of the ships on Hardmode and maybe even on normal maps.

old kelp
I browsed the feedbacks and I don't see anyone suggesting this. I have a suggestion to add trigger conditions for air strikes/torpedoes/BB shots. Example:
Launch air strike: if enemies 5>
BB shots: boss appearance
Torpedo launch: if at close range
This will make auto play more fun and adds a strategic element in selecting ships and choosing the proper triggers. Shot/strikes/torps launching off as soon as they cool down is just not optimal.
I hope you find this suggestion useful. Thank you. 😆
hollow palm
another example of trigger condition for torps could be enemies being within the firing angle, not just distance
old kelp
That would be a plausible trigger condition. Another one I can think of is maybe hp%? No point using air strikes if all the enemies are at 10% hp.
hollow palm
if all other conditions are not met, then maybe launch torps/airstrike when they've reached 2/2 loading, so as to not waste reload. Would need to be optional as some players probably want to keep their burst damage readied
old kelp
Yes that could be an option too. But I think they will need to keep things simple at first. Triggers based on number of enemies, types of enemies and hp% of enemies should suffice for a trial run.

I feel dock view needs some sort of good at a glance view that doesn't need any clicks to get all the necessary info I want about the state of a ship and just scroll through all your ships getting a good overview of what needs to be done where, can we get something like this (with the gear being switchable from there as well):

hey thats a good solution to see what enhancement and gears ships have without going to the details screen. Everything else is nice too but those two are the main highlights.

make the retreat sign ingame more distinct than the fleet retreat, thought they were the same and retreated with 1 fleet+boss left to defeat in the last event node while I was trying to 3-star it 
rare jay
Hm...I can see the reasoning behind it. But how would we go about it? Make it a different color? A different pop-up bubble style so they're not identical?
fallow tiger
prolong the naming or change it altogether for the node retreat? Battle Retreat, Surrender, Escape, etc, or simply stick to Flee in a fleet spot, and Retreat for the whole battle, because I sometimes see Flee and sometimes Retreat as well for fleet fights, not sure what's the difference yet
shell bramble
You can Flee only from boss nodes, which moves the fleet off of that square but doesn't force them to leave the map. Otherwise they'll be unusable until you sortie again
fallow tiger
I see, kudos on the knowledge
timber lava
Anyone know if these have been suggested before?: would love if “favoriting” a ship had some kind of visual indicator on the portrait in the dock (maybe above the lock icon or something), and if you could check a box to sort favorites at the top and then non favorites under (not just display only favorites)

Suggestion: let us do something with the cognitive chips. I am currently sitting on 6.5k of them, without knowing what to do. I'd suggest a research option, which returns the standard issue gears plus a bit of oil and coinst together with it. Furthermore, if there was a way of tying them closer to the existing economy, it may give a reason for people to play around with them (do I spend them on the relatively nice shiny thing or do I wait to enhance the cognition of my CA which will soon get to lvl. 105?)
rare jay
Hm...I could see spending them for projects like how you can spend cubes. We do have a card for more uses for cog chips so I got your idea added to it Card for reference: https://trello.com/c/FmA7GDDz/579-additional-use-for-cognition-chips
shy pond
Thanks
nocturne panther
Just an FYI that hoarding cog chips is not a bad thing to do in long term right now, because uncapping 110 -> 120 costs 2.66 times more than uncapping 100 -> 110 (which is especially an issue for Super Rare ships). But as soon as the player is satisfied with the amount of level 120 ships, yes, cog chips can see more uses than just a post-level 100 uncap currency.
twin thistle
just for a pvp team of 6 ships it takes 8k cognition chips... idk what kind of astronomic amount people can have to request to have them being used for something else
shell bramble
Probably less that they have super large amounts, and moreso that they're very infrequently spending them
...or maybe one leads to another, because I've never bothered looking and I'm at 4.5k

amber cairn
A lot of times I press like next to the Tactical class start button. But with this new UI it just resets the picked UI if you press just next to it.
Soo it might be better to add a return button instead of making the background the return button.\
The scrolling bars are ridiculously small on some tabs. For example at the Depot > Craft tab its barely press able on my phone.
And then at the Item Screen its a lot bigger for no reason.
Which is waaay better.
Soo i suggest that they get about the same size as the Depot > Item tab.

@amber cairn We've actually got a card going for those general issues. And we've got most of what you're saying (the scrollbars and the confirmation button being annoying at times).

I’d love it if the Azur Lane devs could provide the crimson echoes senbonzakura style song in audio tracks? I really wanted to use the guitar part that is heard
ornate basin
you'd probably have to find it online, but its been suggested to have a gallery of all loading screens and all the ost

I understand the OST, I meant the original audio tracks themselves in a project file or as separate wavs that I could use
As the guitar part sounds really awesome by itself and I would’ve loved to have sampled it
ornate basin
would probably have to go in the files, contact yostar, or download it from somewhere online but your suggestion is making the music in someway available to download in game?
kindred wadi
Yes, I know it’s very uncommon for games to provide original audio tracks but the music in this game is second to none to absolute every other mobile game and it’s a shame to not be able to see what each track within a song is comprised of. It’s also the fact that they all sound really low quality on YouTube due to raw downloads.

Is there a chance that we can get a refresh options for the commissions, because Im not liking the commission that have the lvl 100 cap, I don't have many level 100's and I use them all, plus I can only go on 1 commission at a time since the rest are the level 100's. It'd be beneficiary for a lot to have a refresh option.
rare jay
@young panther We actually have 2 suggestions in our Trello that would help solve your problem. The first being an ability to refresh commissions and the second one is to make the Cog commissions a bit more easier on the levels or actually check for if you have enough LVL 100 ships for the amount you get

So is this the place where I could suggest a thought I had and maybe get your opinion on it?
tardy arch
yes
twin thistle
is the en client supposed to have notifications for research commissions? considering the layout of the new ui i would assume that they should since commissions and classes which also have notifications are all on the left bar where u get to see research too. both jp and cn client have those notifications for research and i see no reason why the en client shouldn't. i tried to report is as a bug but i didn't receive any response. i know that the devs have a lot of work because of the new ui but i would like that at lest there is a report that that feature is not working in the en client.
tardy arch
yes there is and it does work. i get one every time a research commission is done.
twin thistle
for me it doesn't work at all while the jp client works
i haven't received 1 research notification not on phone not on emu ever for en client
tardy arch
did you report it with the belfast bot?
twin thistle
i tried asking in bug report but didn't receive any response
tardy arch
actually first. you mean the in-game notifications or push notifications?
twin thistle
i mean the notifications u get while not playing that commissions or classes are over
tardy arch
so push notifications. ya i don't get those either. not sure why but i'm guessing in another in the long list of bugs.
velvet adder
So this is obviously not something I'm pushing for, but I was hoping the devs might find it interesting enough to discuss over a cup of coffee - It migth've been suggested before.
But what would you say about adding a insentive for people to overkill maps aswell - based on time remaining? Say a slight increase in drop rates based on how fast you complete the map?
In what scenarios would this make sense, what potential gains would it give?
Scenario 1: You compose the cheapest possible fleet to farm a map and then pain-stakingly re-run that map 400 times before your oil runs up.
Scenario 2: You consider the cost/speed of the fleet, trying to find a balance between fast clear speed and low oil costs. This setup might be twice as expensive leading to only 200 runs compared to your S1 setup, but it clears the map three times as fast resulting in 0,XX% higher drop rates.
Scenario 3: You work 10 hours a day, then you do house chores for 2 hours while taking care of a kid intermittently. You might not have time to run 400 maps nor 200. Instead you opt for your absolute strongest and fastest clear speeds. This will result in an outrageous amount of oil spent, but atleast some of that will translate into overkill rewards which might in turn insentives the common wo-/man to log in and do some farming.
This adds even more depth to the game. People who can't be bothered can still run their low cost fleets, but those who really want to min-max will constantly be swapping out ships and trying to get the optimal time/cost ratio going.
It will also give you reasons to use your Shipfu's for other things than EX-clears without considering the oil-cost to be wasted.
And lastly, it'll cater to casual players with less time while also rewarding hardcore players depending on how the rewards are balanced.
twin thistle
the only issue i can see with a system like that is that all dmg calculations are done client side and it would make it easy to abuse. if something like that would be implemented they would also need a better anti cheat system. the idea is definitely interesting since it would make the game more accessible for everyone.
velvet adder
Yeah, I'm not nearly knowledgable enough to give any input about that, so thanks for raising those points. To reduce the amount of calculations you could have hidden "S-rank" rewards for every 5 seconds perhaps? It would make it easier for a player to know what to aim for in terms of speed and they could set their own goals.
"Clearing it with 2:10 time remaining is going to cost so much oil with my current ships, not worth it, but I could easily do 2:05 or 2:00"
The load could probably be reduced even further by adding a small time window in which you as a player are eligable for overkill rewards, say within the first 30 seconds of the game.
Something like that does seem to be less burdening for the client no?
regal elm
...it gives me an idea of a suggestion.
A some sort of "Last Spurt" in the final two or three days before an event ends. Normal Maps has x3 bonus that can only be collected once and resets everyday. So, how about a Double points period in Hard Maps and/or Normal Maps, so players with little time for the game can rack up more points before an event ends.
Not too shabby of an idea, is it? Got this from another mobage which is way more relaxed than this
gaunt yew
hi devs can you guys adjust the range of bismarcks barrage the range is too short that its kinda not hit anything at all
twin thistle
gaunt yew
so its a bug or nah?
regal elm
It's a suggestion... of some sort
twin thistle
it should be a bug tbh. the range is just so inconsistent that it cannot be intended
gaunt yew
ok thx, i hope they will do something about it
vagrant minnow
A suggestion I have is to remove the requirements when doing hard mode or hardmode event maps
minor robin
But then it wouldn't be "hard" anymore
vagrant minnow
the problem is that it limits too many people from doing it because they dont have the stats.
Example: My fleet can easy defeat event Stage D but I cant do it because I dont have enough evasion. Therefore I cant take the prices I want
minor robin
The idea of hard mode is to challenge you
velvet adder
Enderhazard, It seems like my thought got some people thinking, is there somewhere more official where I could post it or will staff eventually scroll through the suggestions here?
minor robin
We'll take what is posted here and just slap it on the trello page where the Devs can see it without needed to backread
vagrant minnow
if not remove the let it be as a tip, like: if you have those stats it would be easier for you
minor robin
Provided it isn't totally ridiculous
vagrant minnow
then*
minor robin
I'll backread later, am on mobile
velvet adder
The point is not that you do hard mode with the optimum fleet comp you're always running. The point is having to make a fleet that can fit the critera of the mission
minor robin
Hard mode has already been made much easier with the addition of clearing mode
vagrant minnow
but that limits people who want to have their self made
minor robin
In ADDITION, you have the perk of having no ambushes, and usually better drops and exp than regular maps
Removing the requirements from hard mode defeats the explicit purpose of it being hard mode
velvet adder
It would essentially become a normal map with higher level enemies
minor robin
Clearing mode is supposed to nerf the requirements anyways
solemn citrus
They only annoyance I find with Hard Modes is the BB vs BC requirement. Can’t view them separately in dock, and as far as I can tell there’s only 3 non-event BCs, so not everybody will know to level at least one
minor robin
And I believe that's been suggested
velvet adder
yeah, I remember reading the tutorials/newbie tips when I started this game, and it mentioned leveling up BCs for hard mode. But I was still to new to know what hard mode was or even what a BC was. So I ended up having to learn about it the hard way anyway.
solemn citrus
Hood, Renown, and Repulse being the only non-event ones seems a bit harsh when it’s a forced requirement for some maps, especially since only Hood is really decent from that setup
minor robin
Hopefully with the DC limited Scharnhorst and Gneisenau appearing in this event randomly, it's a sign that we may see them being permanently added to the build soon (at least on other servers, as they did with the VIDR ships)
velvet adder
To be fair, I think the whole point of Hard mode is to have a bunch of requirements so you are incentivised to level up more ships
solemn citrus
I, personally don’t find it as bad, since Amagi and the Kongou-class (mostly) exist, but yeah it’s harder on those that missed CE or ISSS
minor robin
That is an accurate assessment
At least it's not like that one event which locked you into a CV and CVL slot on the same fleet...
(That's before zeppy era)
solemn citrus
Enty/Unicorn go
regal elm
maybe a full required front/backline is also quite an issue, like W7, where the whole frontline is restricted to just CLs and DDs. But then again, it's just me.
solemn citrus
You don’t have to fill, just meet at least one of the associated requirements
So if a map needs 2xDDs in the vanguard, as example, you only need to fill one of those slots to sortie with whatever amount of other ships. Could do a 1:1 if that was the only requirement
regal elm
yea, but, for HM maps like W7, the frontline choice is completely limited to CLs and/or DDs, so CAs are out of question
solemn citrus
This is my 7-2 Hard fleet, where the backline is only full because Monarch exp
And that’s part of the puzzle of hard mode. How do you make a viable fleet within those restrictions
You can go a damage rush build, like mine. You can add a tanky DD like Yuki or Jav
regal elm
Yea, like I said, it's just me wanting to grind Hipper or Prinz Eugen
so it's not much of a problem
robust cairn
I know what auto-battle does
I don't need to be notified about how it works on a daily basis 
shell bramble
Small steps. Used to be you're reminded every time the client restarts, at least now it's only daily
rare jay
Well it's been suggested to make it to where the "Notified" option actually makes it to where it stays notified even through a daily reset
robust cairn
That's how I'd assume it would work
velvet adder
So at this point in time I've been thinking about the ironblood frame and how you can only get it if you limitbreak all the ships in the event to max limit break. 5/6 of the boats are RNG to obtain and you only have a limited amount of time to actually limit break them. Isn't thay vaguely close the a banned gacha mechanic in japan Kompu Gacha?
naive cobalt
Not even close, no.
Kompu Gacha implies some big reward, valuable "grand prize" for completing it.
Ironblood chat frame is... not really that
rare jay
But you look cool in chat 
shell bramble
Who uses chat
naive cobalt
Also, not a lawyer, but pretty sure it's not really applicable anyway, since the main problem with actual gacha is that it always costs money. You pay money to get rewards and in case of kompu gacha you need to pay a lot of money to get a reward.
- You don't pull ships with money, but with cubes.
- Cubes are easily obtainable freely.
Yes, some get screwed by rng, point still stands.
But again, I'm no expert. I can send your concerns to staff if you wish, but I doubt there's anything wrong with it from legal standpoint.
By the same logic Fleet Tech mechanic would also fall under Kompu Gacha umbrella, because it requires limited ships for full "value"
velvet adder
You probably should in my opinion because this will probably be a staple mechanic in events going forward
Having to gacha or rng farm for 5/6 of the boats required for this mechanic and having it be timelimited seems oddly predatory especially being able to be screwed by rng 5 ways over.
minor robin
Thing is, not having it in no way affects the game experience whatsoever
it's purely an aesthetic bonus
regal elm
optional extra
minor robin
IF it was a limited ship then yes, you could argue that case
shell bramble
I thought there was already a submitted feedback item expressing dissatisfaction with that chat border reward structure, at the very least wrt having to be completed within the event time frame
minor robin
the main issue in that complaint is max limit breaking them within the time frame, not obtaining the ships
since levelling takes significantly more time and effort
say nothing about bulins and purins being somewhat timegated
velvet adder
The fact that the frame is time limitef
minor robin
you can get them to 70 by leaving them in the dorm for 2 weeks but yeah that's besides the point
it's purely a bonus, you don't gain or lose anything much
velvet adder
Is probably the biggest issue in this regard because eventually thebboats will join the permanent gacha but the fact that the frame is timelimited makes it oddly predatory.
minor robin
it's purely a bonus, you don't gain or lose anything much
if it was a ship or even a skin it could be justified
naive cobalt
regardless, there's no point arguing anything now
We heard your concerns and will share them with staff
velvet adder
It's still a cosmetic in the game that is timegated in such a way that you potentially would never have the chance to get it again wjile relying on 5 ways of RNG.
shell bramble
Looks like the time frame for both the chat portrait & the dorm furniture were extended another week
silver pewter
Well, we can all rejoice as they've just announced that they'll extend the achievements and the furniture by a week. So we can at least put that issue away. Thanks to the staff and the feedback assistants
viscid halo
No offense to the localization team, but, why are we perpetuating a CN WOWS meme in our localization? What's wrong with simply doing the same as the other servers and calling them Small [Insert Name of Bote]? Are we seriously gonna call Cleveland "lad" from now on?
wheat saddle
Names proposed for the lolis are horrific, for CN/JP they merely added 小(small) in front of their official names. I understand the decision to use "little" instead of "-chan" for non-IJN ships.
I rather the name be consistent for EN, sandy can just be sandy or little sandy
cleveLAD? why are community gender memes being put into the actual games as if cleveland was a male?
why lena instead of little helena?
harsh oasis
I agree with you 100%, I really don't like the sound of Clevelad. It doesn't look right. Li'l Cleve would be so much better, or literally anything else tbh.
sour monolith
EN seems to be trying to be more "unique" instead of sticking to what the creators intended.
south sequoia
It's...not particularly good, in my opinion. I would have preferred Lil Cleve, Lil Helena and Lil Sandy. That would be in line with Little Bel, with "Lil' substituting for "Little" since it's an Americanism anyway.
plain coral
I liked Belette
harsh oasis
I saw a suggestion for 'Sandy' which is fine by me, Lena doesn't bother me too much. Belette wasn't too bad but I think Little Bel sounds cuter.
sour monolith
the "lad" thing is a brit thing
velvet adder
Cleveland's entire character is based on her disliking being called "aniki/clevebro", purposefully trying to go against her tomboyish body type in an attempt to make people think of her more than a boring character archetype, going to the point of her being extremely happy when commander treats her like a real girl. And you go and call her "Lad".
Are you out of your minds?
bitter rune
Hello, I'm here to voice the opinion that all the names are great, if people wanted direct translations we'd be getting Cleveson and Small Helena. These names are creative and my only thought is that lil Sandy could just be Sandy.
tawdry hill
the translation team deserve all the shit they're getting
south sequoia
Hey, people still give feedback if they're not happy with how the localisation is handled. That's how Belette got changed to Little Bel, after all.
plain coral
i liked belette though
sour monolith
@bitter rune I don't think this translates to cleveson
velvet adder
Let's hope they take feedback about Clevelad too, because this just doesn't fly.
bitter rune
I'm talking about direct from the source, China baby.
rich ledge
I don't think the names are particularly good, but I don't find them that bad either. Just adding "little" before the names is boring and uninspired, and it's not being unique to want to have somewhat more thought out names. Clevelad is actually pretty clever, and it's not about gender memes since she's already being affectionately called Clevebro anyway.
I'm happy we didn't get Belette, because it honestly sounded dumb and triggers my French language skills where it means "weasel".
south sequoia
The JP ones literally are "Little X", where X is the original name
tawdry hill
why does the translation team feel the need to write their own fanfiction instead of doing what they're paid to do
plain coral
in terms of naming, i feel like the different nations should have a different naming scheme for the loli botes
marble musk
first the whole "big brother bismarck" thing and now "clevelad". is the translation team set on turning every boat in this game into a male?
south sequoia
Likewise, the CN names are also "Little X", where X is the original name.
tidal pulsar
these names are bad, first "Belette" then changing things like groom to commander when that was not neccesary, then these stupid memes are now going to get in the game
velvet adder
@bitter rune
@sour monolith Time after time we've been told that things like that don't follow direct Chinese/Japanese translation. The decision to call Cleveland per "lad" is extremely uncanny and disrespectful to any person who spend more than 5 seconds thinking about her character
wheat saddle
克利夫兰 - Cleveland
小克利夫兰 - little/small cleveland
which part of that "source" is cleveSON?
bitter rune
plain coral
@marble musk its in the WW2 history info that bismark is "supposedly" male
harsh oasis
Clevelad might be somewhat clever but it doesn't roll off the tongue very well and is really at odds with her character. As a previous user said it is also a british slang whereas Cleveland is an american ship...not that Clevedude sounds any better lmao.
tawdry hill
its not
sour monolith
Its not cleveson
solar wind
Leaving my feedback regarding "Clevelad, Lena Li'l Sandy". Please stop pulling names out of your ass. This is not a creativity contest.
tawdry hill
bismark was always refered to as female, except by its own captain for some reson
marble musk
bismarck was refer to as a female by everyone but one general who considered her "above" being female for how great he saw bismarck as
a pretty sexist dude tbh
velvet adder
Entire Bismack and the "big brother" thing is just a straight up shitshow. I see no reason why we should respect the way she's been called by freaking nazi commanders
tawdry hill
honestly i haven't seen a translation team butcher a game this bad ina long time
south sequoia
@tawdry hill U556 also specifically referred to Bismarck as their Big Brother in WW2 - it's on the note/pledge to protect that U556's captain gave to Bismarck's captain
merry thorn
I just want to add that the line between adding funny jokes and doing a proper translation is sometimes a bit blurry but lately I feel like the translation staff is having a little TOO much fun with their localization. In the case of ship names and pronouns I'd very much prefer if they just did a 1:1 translation from the Chinese or Japanese. The memes about a girl's personality and stuff should be left to the fanbase.
rich ledge
@harsh oasis It being British slang is a more valid reason, so I agree with you there. It's just that it doesn't always need to be a direct translation, since localisation doesn't necessarily mean 1:1 like some people say. It's the same discussion that takes place since the dawn of anime fansubbing
tidal pulsar
is there a way to get a new translation team? one that respect the source material at least?
loud umbra
Was it really that hard to put "little" in front of the boat's name, like in the other 2 versions
velvet adder
This is honestly just awful.
harsh oasis
@rich ledge You have a point about direct translation, but there is a reason memesubs get the flak they get and Clevelad is definitely bordering on memesub territory
wheat saddle
I'm of the opinion that the game should be kept fairly faithful to source material and consistent, if i want my ships to have meme names that's what rings are for
sour monolith
They should leave the memes to meme events and mostly outside of in-game translation tbh. It's good for PR but for things like this it gets kinda tiring
velvet adder
Imo these names are fine. Maybe Clevelad could have been Clevelass and li'l Sandy just Sandy
harsh oasis
@velvet adder Lass is a Scottish/British thing again which is also at odds with an American ship
rich ledge
@harsh oasis It is quite borderline and I can definitely agree there.
velvet adder
Memes are fine in cases like Kizuna event. It was irrelevant to the larger story of Azur Lane and nobody had problems with games or anime references there
shut moss
Using a Nickname that cleveland actively dislikes as the basis for the name of her small basis is actually just really rude to the character
late pecan
This isnt a larger event tho
velvet adder
So what ships don't need to be named based on their country
tawdry hill
the memes should be left for the community to make, not for the translation team to bruteforce them in
torn junco

shut moss
Using a Nickname that cleveland actively dislikes as the basis for the name of her small version is actually just really rude to the character

velvet adder
I dont know about other names but "lass" definitely sounds much better

@velvet adder Uh yeah they kind of do, the country they are from is intrinsic to almost every ship in Azur Lane's identity. See Belfast being an English maid, or Izumo being an Oni, or Houston having stars on her outfit.

@velvet adder That's fine if you believe that, but for me and many other people the historical importance of the ships and the battles involving them is a big part of why the game is fun. I've gained a lot of interest in 20th century naval history from playing AL.

"Stop criticizing what the translators do". No, if there's no criticism then they cant improve. If they do shit translations and no one calls them out then they'll keep on putting out shit translations. That said, insults are another thing. They're just useless.

@harsh oasis I'm very interested in WW2 naval battles and such, but this game is not trying to depict history very accurately.

Little Cleveland being too long isn't a problem either considering Admiral Graf Spee exists
velvet adder
Very well. My feedback then is that translation of the EN version of the game should start focusing as extremely as possible on translating things directly instead of simply localizing them. It's understandable that some things are impossible to translate, everybody knows this. I believe however that the idea behind translation itself is to keep those cases to the absolute minimum by if not translating directly then by figuring out ways to keep the meaning as closely to the original as possible WITHOUT making shortcuts by implementing any sort of newspeak which only showcases the lack of talent and dedication they have for their work

Lena is ok, it doesn't sound too bad and doesn't contradict her character. I can easily picture her sisters calling her that.

can't we make it simple, just "little cleveland" and "little helena", no meme, no intention to make funny names. that's all, I think it would be easier for translation team, if they exist in the first place.

warm phoenix
it's not that long, so just make the adjectives shorter to "lil" than shortening the ship actual name. OR shortening the actual name just like "little bel", instead making memes that would incite the spark inside the fan base

I thought lesbian marriages generally had a bride and a groom? At least the ones I went to had them.
sour monolith
Well it wouldn't come to this point if the translators were positive to feedback like Yostar was known for ever since
late pecan
They certainly do listen thats why belette is little Bel
But these new names are nice as well
Lena and Sandy are great, people seem most up in arms about Clevelad
its creative for sure, but Clevie would fit better
velvet adder
This "cater to non-male playerbase" point is extremely mute. Just because something makes this extremely small percentage of the playerbase feel better about themselves (which I find unreasonable to believe that translation team thinks women are so fragile they require every game to cater to them but you do you) doesn't mean that it SHOULD be implemented
delicate patrol
clevelad sounds cute
versed saddle
But honestly, translations aside, the game is doing fine in other areas at least
tidal pulsar
i dont want people to get fired i just want a translation/localization that sticks to the original source 99% of the time at least, instead we get memes, fan fiction lines and pointless changes like commander gender
velvet adder
How about brother to lord? Feels like they are purposely trying to spite the players or just my imagination...
prime moth
I still don't understand the pokemon reference in that scene with Purifier from the last event
late pecan
Original Source at 99% would include japanese puns and things that woosh over the common EN player
harsh oasis
I do have some complaints about the COMPLETELY UNTRANSLATED lines that are in the last event dialogues from the Bismarck event
late pecan
Or worse, Chinese puns
velvet adder
The lord thing at least makes some sense. There were women kings in history after all. Doesnt change the fact that changing it to "lady" would be a much better decision imo
Women kings? You mean queen
versed saddle
@harsh oasis there were a few missing scenes too but intern-kun acknowledged it after I ponged him
velvet adder
No, female kings

That was an instance going for 99% translation accuracy
the Big Brother Bismarck thing was direct from WW2 Germany

Good morning. I'd like to request a change to the translation of small Cleveland, please. Clevelad sounds atrocious. Using a pun as a replacement for her name isn't clever. It's just bad localization. This is supposed to be her name, not a meme.
tidal pulsar
"I want the translation team to stick to the original source" Can i post that here? or will i be banned?
sour monolith
Thats legit feedback
stiff orbit
Considering how much deflecting they did when they changed Aneki into big brother/Lord in order to fill whatever agenda or resume they have, I have no faith on this translation team
velvet adder
Ok👌
Feedback then, i wish they dont "localize" the names. The puns/jokes however can be, since some meanings are lost if translated word per word.
Solution: Just add "Little" before the ship's original name.
past sun
I wish we could have professional names like Little [name], and leave abbreviations and reductions to the fanbase.
stiff orbit
They should all be Little X
river rivet
I'm not even complaining about the replacement of japanese honorifics for endearing names. Something like Zeppy I'm fine with. But imagine refering a small children by turning her name into a pun.
velvet adder
I mean I appreciate the jokes but eh, seems kind of unprofessional(?) when the names are all over the place?
sour monolith
They should stick the memes in advertising, they are already good with it

Feedback: Please change the way Montpelier refers to Cleveland from big sis to "Lord" because that's how U-556 does it and you should be consistent.

People abbreviate the names of people they like, not because someone else, their parents for example, chose to.

We made it specifically clear to keep the trolling out. So please do.
And keep the actual feedback in.
stiff orbit
But this is actual feedback, TL team can't even stay consistent on their bullshit
prime moth
But is pretty clear, the actual feedback is that a lot of people hate the names and want them to change. And they are not happy with the translation team
velvet adder
In my opinion, I rather stay away from the lolified ships.
true wave
Bismarck being called Lord and Big Brother by U-556 is historically accurate, it's not some failing of the translators/localizers
tidal pulsar
I politely want the translation team to be replaced if its necessary, there has been too many problems to continue with them.
prime moth
nope, original is "Big sister"
stiff orbit
It's not accurate because U556 calls her Aneki, do you even know what Aneki means?
sour monolith
They can still redeem themselves if they approach this properly
nova dragon
im gonna second the "change shikikan's gender" suggestion cause i wanna be a cute anime shikikan too
velvet adder
Its not being historically accurate. It's catering to the made up idea of a nazi madman who thought that calling a ship male is fine
minor robin
Stop.
true wave
She calls Bismarck aneki(big sister) in the other versions, that doesn't make it historically accurate
turbid loom
Considering how the last round of "small" ships went, shouldn't the localization team have given this more thought. Cleavelad is a bad pun/meme and reads exactly like that. For people worried about their resumes, they don't seem to care to much about the quality of their work. Why not Cleavie, it works and is along the lines of Zeppy. As far i as know there was no issues with zeppy
minor robin
Arguing with other people's opinions ain't feedback either.
prime moth
isn't it a tradition on the navy to call ships by "she/her"?
marble musk
and he specifically wanted to call the ship male because he considered females inferior
minor robin
Just state your feedback and a solution if you're kind enough and move on
river rivet
This isn't Otto Von Bismarck himself. It's a female ship taking his name, who is referred as "big sister" in the original script
ashen isle
i second to changing "clevelad" to something more appropriate
stiff orbit
Yes, but this has nothing to do with historically accuracy, U556 herself calls Bismarck Aneki, it is not Lord, It is not big brother. Anything other than big sister is headcannon and fanfiction.
velvet adder
Feedback: catering to the made up idea of a nazi madman to call Bismarck per "he" is absurd and should never even come to translators minds
merry thorn
It really doesn't matter if the Lord/Brother thing is historically accurate or not. The only thing that matters is what the original text said. If it said sister, then translate it as sister. If the translation team wants to add in their own epic historical references and whatnot, they can make their own game and do it there. I just want accurate translations, please.
river rivet
It should stay as close to the original script as possible. Localization is fine. Ad libbing the script isn't
naive cobalt
I will start muting people if you insist on continuing the discussion starting with now

what matters is what Syanda said about direct versus localization debates
tawdry hill
i'm sure everyone here loves the original yugioh dub, it certainly was a localisation

that doesnt sound like feedbacl

Also another problem, the commander is male, or else how are they gonna change Nevada's SHOUNEN and FdG's Bouya?
late pecan
But I still support all the names and changing Clevelad to Clevie just to quell the masses
void niche
Here is feedback. Put up a poll or something and let people decide if they want historical accuracy or consistency, regarding Bisko.
prime moth
Put another poll regarding the translation team
hidden birch
@stiff orbit exactly
versed saddle
Must be hard to mod this channel but nobody's perfect, I hope the translators get back on this to prove themselves worth. Ego isn't everything and humbleness does many great things.
tidal pulsar
people want accurate translation, why a poll would even be necessary here?
ornate basin
people’s concerns are noted
stiff orbit
Wow they responded
naive cobalt
People are free to leave their feedback and staff will read it, but it's not being decided on popularity basis
stiff orbit
Then what's the point
true wave
A game that makes all it's decisions on popular vote would be a very shit game
grizzled rose
Odd that I didn’t have a problem with Clevelad until other people brought them up.
turbid loom
if we give feedback, as was given with the last round of loliships, but then you don't address them, as with this round of ship, what is the actual point
sour monolith
It stuck out to me in the patch notes 
prime moth
A game that bases all their translations around memes isn't a good game either
naive cobalt
if we give feedback, as was given with the last round of loliships, but then you don't address them Belette was changed to Little Bel because people were giving their opinion
stiff orbit
This has to do with consistency and quality of translations, not about what people think is right. Fan fiction isn't professional
naive cobalt
If you don't think there's any point to leaving your feedback here - you're free not to

this channel exists for a reason.
mystic forge
i think the name clevelad is fine, even if it isnt a 1:1 translation.
turbid loom
Belette was a bad name, and people wanted it changed. People wanted Bel-Chan but were told no honorifics, then had that do a 180 with the other ships
prime moth
I still don't understand why they need to justify themselves doing that scene with Akashi
sour monolith
I think it was because of the way the translators responds to feedback even though people have given their feedback here.
late pecan
Belfast isnt japanese
velvet adder
Change lil Sandy to Loliego
My feedback is for the translation team to please take their personal feud with part of the playerbase outside of the game. Do it on Discord, Twitter, wherever. But entirely made up meta lines like the one in the Belfast event are ridiculous. Same with unnecessary meme name changes. Thanks.
hidden birch
The higher ups force Chan with jap ships
late pecan
cuz theyre japanese
opal lynx
Why can't the higher ups force a better translation job?
tidal pulsar
I politely ask to stop making changes in characters stories, events and anything regards to commaders gender too

because the higher ups arent translators

if there are problems then they are not doing a good work
turbid loom
your localization team needs to understand that their memes aren't funny and are otherwise ruining a otherwise good set of stories. What they want and what they should do are obviously two very different things. This extends to their naming as well. Feedback has been given on multiple occasions only for the localization team to insert scenes that make fun of the people that don't like their forced memes
delicate patrol
they're humans, you can't expect them to be completely perfect
late pecan
It seems like people are making way too many assumptions and seem to have a personal grudge with Yostar. At this point its less Feedback on how to better localize it and more complaining about how ALEN isnt ALJP with English subs
ornate basin
@versed saddle this(your message) is not feedback
past sun
I propose that Clevey and Sandy would be better names. Lena is fine.
sour monolith
Honestly I love yostar, they've been good with feedback. The only part that misses the feedback thing is the translation team.
velvet adder
Several people named their married San Diego "Sandy" so that's not really an ideal name imo. I like the Little x pattern better.
tidal pulsar
yeah i dont expect them to be perfect i can pass typos, things like that can happen but the problem surges when they start to make changes in things they think are "funny" or are "better" for the game
minor robin
People are entitled to their opinions. If they are fine with it, then let them say that they are.
pure ember
my feedback, I think Lena and Li'l Sandy is fine. But Clevelad should be changed...maybe Clevey?
ornate basin
the feedback assistants take feedback for a reason, we note this stuff and give it to staff
and the staff give it to the respected people for the feedback

thorn flume
but memes inserted in translation of the game are fine?
honest rune
Lena "seems" a new ship if you read the name without knowing what is this event.
shell bramble
It's not the place of players to try and enforce changes on an HR scale, unless specific individuals in the company make themselves known publicly. Just because some people perceive no changes have happened, doesn't mean they haven't, or that feedback hasn't been received back to management. Even if changes had occurred, it would be incredibly unprofessional for Yostar to say "Person X has been fired for being a bad translator".
velvet adder
We dont wish for anyone to be fired, we wish for non meme names.
tidal pulsar
"fire an incompetent person" whats the problem with that?
velvet adder
@shell bramble if they are a bad translator then they should be fired or should not have been hired at all
naive cobalt
ok, you all getting muted
sour monolith
@shell bramble There's a lot of things wrong too with the translators responding to feedback like editing a line in-game to insert a meta retort is unprofessional
delicate patrol
The game isn't supposed to be taken super seriously, it's all about the lewd bote waifus after all. There's no harm in memes and jokes in the game, and the translators are doing a fine job of localizing content for the target audience.
