Would removing gold tier repair cranes from T5 techboxes be too much to ask for?

[versed laurel]

IDK if this would be good for the devs to have fun with or not, but is there any way that special cutscenes could be done during events if you pull certain ships while having specific ships?

Like taking the recent Bismarck event for an example, say you have Tirpitz and U-556 then obtain Bismarck from the Gacha. Then a special cutscene plays showing the shipgirls meeting again with U-556 bringing the sisters to meet

[rare jay]

@versed laurel Hm...that'd be a bit out of the scope of this channel. Plus that'd anger a lot of players that they can't get the cutscenes due to gacha RNG. And plus I think there are some legal boundaries they need to be wary of w/ those types of things

[unreal trail]

or an alternative would be to yield more T3 general parts for scrapping gold tier Repair Cranes?

[versed laurel]

Oh x.x Crap I didn't think of it like that

[rare jay]

@unreal trail Hm...straight up removing them sounds like a bad idea b/c someone people would still like them (or at least one copy). But I do like the idea of possibly more results being yielded from them. One sec

i looked through trello but i couldnt see this in particular so here i go. sorry if it got suggested already.

my biggest issue with the game is that there is like no interaction with friends. yes i can look at their dorms. wow. but thats like all isnt it. why cant i send friends a little bit of oil daily? like my secretary or the girls in my dorm could pop up in a friends dorm with a little gift of oil or coins or whatever. it just feels like there is no benefit at all to have friends in the game.

[south plume]

would it be possible to add a feature where you can reacquire ships from your archive at the cost of an equal or higher rarity bulin? so that retiring event ships isn't so nerve racking... also making it cost a bulin would mean that there wouldn't be any exploits for free limit breaks

[shell bramble]

What would be the use case for that? Something like, a ship isn't super useful so you retire it, but it gets a retrofit so you want to bring it back?

[south plume]

yes

or maybe in the case of tirpitz for those who didn't hang on to her before bismarck came out

[tardy arch]

that'd be broken af even if the ships stats are reset. dock expansions would mean nothing in that case.

[south plume]

you never gonna have enough dock space for every event ship. the event that yat sen came out in alone would take up like 10 slots.

[rare jay]

Well it's been suggested before and we have the suggestion written down. Card for reference: https://trello.com/c/fsIfuIkS/439-recovering-accidentally-retired-enhanced-away-ships

[tardy arch]

ya but if you can just reclaim any ship you want then there'd be no point in dock expansions. you get the ship, scrap it, and later on if you want it back, scrap a common or ship you don't use and bring them back.

[naive cobalt]

Ye
ANd you need to level them back
And limit break them again
And level skills back

[south plume]

i have a bunch of ships sitting in my dock that make up fleets that im not using at the moment. i feel like that's a pretty good use for dock expansions. or the convenience of not having to sort your dock every time you sortie

[naive cobalt]

if one game can do it
with basically same mechanics and systems
and somehow not break and make dock slots useless
I don't see how it'll suddenly break in AL

[tardy arch]

inb4 that "one game" is gfl.
also i'm really all that against it since it would help with accidentally scrapped ships. i'd just be salty as fuck because then i'd have wasted so many gems on dock expansions

[ornate basin]

prob

[naive cobalt]

Yes, that "one game" is in fact gfl

[south plume]

it's not about accidentally enhancing though, currently there's no way to get tirpitz so if you retired her after the event then you'd be missing a pretty important part of what makes bismarck so good

[tardy arch]

ugh my dumb brain. i meant "i'm not really all that against it..."

well you always have the rerun to get her.
also why retire trip in the first place? she's great for a farm fleet.

[south plume]

or like, now that roon is out, people are probably kicking themselves that they;ve retired deutchland and graf spee

[tardy arch]

tbh the people who scrapped them probably didn't know about roon otherwise they would have kept them.

[south plume]

which is exactly why they should be able to get them back. i didn't know about research ships back then. i only kept them cause i'm heaps keen to get a good german fleet going

[naive cobalt]

"You own fault lol" is not an argument and it's in the trello anyway, so why arguing

[tardy arch]

i'm not. i even said i wasn't that against it again cause i'd be salty as fuck. and i never even implied "your fault lol" i simply said that if they knew about roon they wouldn't have scrapped graf and deutch.

[solemn citrus]

you can still use the K class for Roon, at least

[eternal bear]

There needs to be a fix for targeting on flagship BB secondary guns for all ships. I noticed this when I started running Terror at no LB for my backline EXP research farmer. The secondary guns target upper usually just fine unless it is the furthest part. The secondary guns late target lower or constantly are off target. I get it if two get through the AI tries to target both, but if only one gets through it needs to properly target the bottom one and sink it before it hits.

[velvet adder]

@eternal bear Did you use Abercrombie?

[eternal bear]

no I use terror

[velvet adder]

Is Terror still 0LB?

[eternal bear]

yeah for farm I do have her set with max gear

[velvet adder]

Working as intended then, a 0LB Monitor can't defend itself

[eternal bear]

At 8-4 farm is supposed to be able to

The issue is not the ship, it is a notice of how it targets off. I might need to test other ships but it clearly shows that center ship who should have targeting even upper and lower has a bias towards upper and against lower

[velvet adder]

So people say at least, I find it somewhat dubious but I haven't checked either because it's silly.

That shouldn't be the case, her firing point is relatively normal and the gun opens up on whatever enters its range first
What's the gun in question anyway?

[shy pond]

Found a TL error. "Am I get used to my new role?" In Belfast's Affinity(Love) dialogue for her oath skin. Completely breaks up the sentence so it is quite severe. If the translation is otherwise correct it should be "Am I getting.....?"

For any of the mini SP events that require you to do 60 runs, it would be cool if there was like an SP4/SP0 that was like lv 90-100 enemies and counted as 2 runs or something. it kinda sucks having to burn oil on level 70 enemies

Guys. In April, you interviewed users about streams. Why, in two months, still there was not one stream? It's sad to see that CN and JP servers have streams from developers/localizers. And Global doesn't have them.

[rare jay]

Well I'm sure there's plenty of thoughts and ideas that need to be considered/weighed when planning out a stream straight from the game's team. Plus, I'd imagine the EN team is constantly busy so it becomes even harder to get it planned. But those are just assumptions as any real answers would need to come straight from the EN team

[formal oyster]

When completing all commissions in one go, could we make it so we actually collect everything at once, similar to the "collect all" feature of the missions ? Right now we're still kinda collecting them one by one in the end

[shy pond]

I'd say that is fair enough since otherwise it would need a whole new UI for up to 24 ships to be implemented

[formal oyster]

I'm sure there could be some simplified way to display the xp gains. And even if not, just stick with it for the ships, but put all the items in one go, that would already be an improvement.

[rare jay]

@formal oyster Got the idea listed on a previous card regarding the collect all for commissions https://trello.com/c/LGefEAdG/469-collect-all-button-for-commissions-in-commissions-page

Also perhaps have it to where when you do use the "Collect all" button, it collects all the commissions similar to the "Collect all" button for missions instead of going through each commission one-by-one.

Don't really wanna write an essay on why would devs need to tune down amagi in pvp, so i'll just write some ideas later once i figure out how to formulate them

[shy pond]

Amagi in PvP can be a bit overpowering if not countered properly. Her weakness is the non-existant AA and the fact she has medium armour (big damage numbers). Yes, she is VERY strong, but then again she was a 30kt BC/fast battleship project (as she was inspired by the Hood who was a fast BB for a time until she got worn out and missed her retrofit). She also has more and bigger guns than Iowa and even Izumo. I'd say she is real strong, but not game-changing like Owarida or Akaga. A very nice non-faction-based buffer

[formal oyster]

That's why people put Akaga with her

It would be nice to see what gear i am about to scrap just like when retiring ships

[mighty lantern]

I'm not gonna complain too much but I really do think it's a travesty that Vestal isn't the best repair ship in the game. Only having a small buff to repairing Enterprise isn't exactly fitting of her IRL accommplishments.

[shy pond]

Buff Vestal to also trigger her skill at the beginning of a battle for the lowest-HP percentage ship, or make it timer-based (45s)

As a theorycraft, but not suggesting, this could go well with a retrofit. By the way, she lived only because Arizona's explosion put her fires out

[mighty lantern]

I mean it's not only the fact that she survived Pearl Harbor. She also did major repairs on many big name ships and all that too.

And in her state as it is she's outperformed by Unicorn/Shouhou-kai

[shy pond]

Yup. Completely agree wih the fact she should have a better skill compliment. How do you like my skill suggestion?

Healing CVs do outperform repair ships regularly by the way

[mighty lantern]

I mean I think the idea of having her be a single target healer on a timer (like akashi's skill currently) and increase it from current values. Maybe 15-20% for the most damaged ship/ 35s and double for enterprise.

[shy pond]

Agree in full. Maybe give her a 45s cooldown but heal at the start once?

[mighty lantern]

that would likely be fine it's unlikely that you would get more than 3 procs in a normal battle and maybe you could get 4 procs on a long boss but at that point do you even want a repair ship.

[shy pond]

It would need further testing with that form though.... I suggest 15% heal/20-25% Vestal HP

[mighty lantern]

yeah i think either of those would be fine i think sticking with %heal is likely better as (at least with the current way higher maps go) you're likely healing vanguard which is where using ship% is best abused. A 15% heal for DD's is still likely 350+

And in it's current state of healing @20% even if you were considering using her, it's almost unlikely that you'll even be able to proc her skill in a proper mob fleet.

Minneapolis comes to mind as proccing @30%.

phoenix is 20 forgot but yeah still.

[shy pond]

Well.... I think she should be stronger than currently, especially with the whole deal of Akashi getting a reload command skill

[mighty lantern]

And that's not to mention that the first 2-3 sorties she's just complete dead-weight until hp drops.

[vestal olive]

It would have been nice if we can preview Theme and Furnitures. I would have liked to know that the Soda Can was bigger than the Chibis

[wheat yoke]

I wonder if this is suggested already but during sorties, it would be nice to show the highest rarity that a certain node would drop. Example, if it's a boss node that can drop a gold SG print, maybe the equipment bp icon should be gold as well.
I was thinking of this for consistency for the ship drop icon (where it's gold for nodes that can drop an SR and gold chest for nodes that can drop a T4 chest). I know people can just check the drops before sorties but it's also the applicable to the boxes.
Any thoughts?

[naive cobalt]

gold icon would imply that it can only drop gold designs

and just confuse people more

[wheat yoke]

How? A T3 box icon certainly drops t1-t3, same with plates (which starts at 1 and up to what the node shows) . I can see no reason that people would still get confuse with that, considering gold bps are a world 5 thing already

Very High Priority, OBT, Gameplay Balance Suggestions

[shy pond]

@naive cobalt Vestal would be stronger with this, yes. that is why I suggested that. but at the same time, Vestal is extremely niche, with a single-target heal. This means it is overall less useful than Akashi would be in a larger fleet comp. situation. Which is what this buff would be aimed at. Thus I ask you to still include it on the "Very high priority for 6 months" card already listed. The main purpose of the skill alteration is twofold- as the first thing, Vestal would not be wasting her skill potential on a battle where you make it through with a safe margin. However, I dee the potential probles, so here is a rewording of a skill alteration: After 30 seconds and every 45 seconds after that. Heal the lowest-HP percentage ship on the fleet by 7.5% (15%). You could have the Enterprise part, but in that case the healing would be only 50% higher now. Or maybe leave her current skill as is and introduce a passive heal which is more frequent, but weaker than Akashi's

I believe that you let your personal opinion on the ship override the fact that many people do not know how to use Vestal. I do not say this lightly, but I believe you should at least create the card as an idea, or add it to the general buff card. (Please do not this is not a personal attack, but rather my pure opinion on the rejection of the feedback which we discussed to quite some detail in this channel before the final version of the suggestion)

[velvet adder]

The single target heal is precisely why Vestal trashes Akashi, in that

• it doesn't depend on her HP pool, which means she otherwise would have to bolster it with +HP gear, which impacts an AR's main job as AAA
• it actually saves lives, unlike a smattering of HP which any real healer laughs at

[naive cobalt]

If what you suggested is instead of her current skill - I'm sure you just suggested nerf

And massive one

[shy pond]

You may be able to add it to the skill if you tune it down

The current part would be slightly tuned down. As this does bring her in as a single-target healer. it brings more utility to her. I even had a suggestion for it to be HP-based

[velvet adder]

If anything Akashi should heal more or at the very least more often, to stand a chance to compare favourably

Vestal is fine as she is
Fix Scamcat and we'll talk

[shy pond]

I do not agree with that statement, due to the fact that Akashi does not have a trigger condition and she heals everyone at the same time

I suppose a general AR buff should be introduced, but I stand by my statement on Vestal

Maybe the way forward is to let the repair crane heal every ship in the fleet. Would be a great way to let ARs shine

[velvet adder]

Which only matters in a full fleet situation, and even then less than it actually does because:

• taking AR means dealing less damage, which means taking MORE damage that could otherwise be prevented
• the back shouldn't be taking damage anyway
• Arizona/Unicorn/Shoho still heal more and faster whole contributing to the fight

[shy pond]

and would fix both of them potentially. As Vestal could keep her flavour, although at that point with her special item Akashi is still stronger IMO. and you do not seem to understand the point of +1 ammo on later maps

[velvet adder]

You seem to think it actually matters, which is just cute
Take an attack unit instead, see how better things go

[naive cobalt]

I think it strays from initial discussion at this point

[ornate basin]

[velvet adder]

Hang on, didn't I already suggest fixes for ARs months ago?

[naive cobalt]

I welcome suggestions to improve ARs in general since it's more productive, than just overfocusing Vestal specifically to the point of "her heal is broken strong, but only if you wait like 2 minutes for it proc just taking more damage in the process"

Both ARs need fixing and buff to Vestal won't solve general problem with both

Also yes you did and I linked to it above

[wheat yoke]

I would push to (at least) buff the healing and lower the delay on Akashi's skill
35 seconds for a tiny heal sounds like waiting for salvos to kill your backline in my opinion

[shy pond]

Yes. But Vestal for someone not into minmaxing fleets with ARs feels underwhelming as she lacks the Vanguard buff of Akashi and the non-condition healing

[velvet adder]

If you want that buff, why not use Unicorn?

Costs the same, protects against planes, screenclears, airstrikes, buffs, will bring Air Superiority - what more could you ask?

[shy pond]

I think better wording of the skill may work. Every 35 (or 45, you say) seconds, heal the lowest-HP percentage ship on the fleet by (5-7.5%) 10-15% of that ship's health. If any ship reaches 20% HP, heal her for 20% of her HP. This can happen only once per battle. This effect is doubled if the target is Enterprise.

One skill with 2 potential effects, I know, but this is the rough outline of the thing I'd say would be ideal as Vestal's improvement

[wheat yoke]

Yes. But Vestal for someone not into minmaxing fleets with ARs feels underwhelming as she lacks the Vanguard buff of Akashi and the non-condition healing

In my opinion, the 2 ARs have a niche job different from each other.

Vestal for healing a single target that's in heavy damage per node.

Akashi for a small, entire fleet heal plus vanguard reload buff.

Basing from this niche, Vestal does her well, it saves the ship upon lethal damage.
Akashi, however, lacks enough amount to heal the entire fleet, and in higher worlds, that tiny heal is easily nullified by Salvos, Torps and bomb boats (and planes if enough pass through).
Correct if I'm wrong but this is basing from my experience.
(I do agree Vestal [as an AR] still needs a buff, but certainly not a nerf for Akashi)

[velvet adder]

The main issue with ARs is that they don't heal nowhere near enough to justify their lack of DPS - sure they shoot planes down well, which is great in W12+, but you're still not winning battles by popping fliers alone.
Either you give them some way to actually deal surface damage, or you shore up the regular healing, the crane healing and perhaps the healing skills too - Akashi's in particular

Both AR need SOMETHING that makes them fulfil the purpose they're meant for, 'cause as I keep saying, right now they're Anti Air Artilleries poorly disguised as nurses
Vestal is in a better position than Akashi for the reasons outlined above by myself and others, so if you must, start with the cat

[shy pond]

I'd say this warrants discussion either way, but with the fundamentally different point of view we seem to posess, I would ask someone finally brings the AR buff up with the devs as they are the ones with the final word on this

[cursive plank]

In my opinion tho, Akashi heals based on her own HP, this makes it so she heals more HP in % for Destroyers than any other ships, which totally reflects what she did in the history (mainly repairing ships in the Tokyo Express, but the task is a logistical nightmare so its actually one hell of a job), so I guess this is actually pretty great design aesthetic, whether if the healing is enough is another story tho

Also it doesn't help that Destroyer are really out of meta in PvE right now

[velvet adder]

It isn't enough unfortunately, I'd checked - simply making her heal more would be the quick and easy fix to the problem, 'cause if you're not gonna DPS you better at least fix those DDs better than Unicorn does

[cursive plank]

Pretty sure she out heals DD vs Unicorn, or my memory is rusty

[velvet adder]

If there's only 1 DD, yes
https://pastebin.com/RucY4TwC

[cursive plank]

No I mean her skill, also heals the DDs based on her own HP, Instead of Unicorn's which is based on their HP

[velvet adder]

Indeed, that's why she's pretty good at that job in theory - but takes too long to beat Unicorn, who airstrikes and heals twice in 40s while Akashi only heals once in 35s (and the crane only heals one target at a time)

[cursive plank]

Well, I guess the other side of this argument is the 50% damage boost for one extra battle and one extra battle at normal damage can be considered healing by preventing damage taken in the first place by finishing the battles faster

[velvet adder]

Nope to that too

[cursive plank]

Not that I don't want the AR ships buffed tho, I fucking love both of them, irl counterpart or AL ver too

[velvet adder]

Battles end faster by not taking them at all, as even a unit at half strength still does more for the fleet than an AR (and doesn't get cheated by ambushes)

Well yeah, I'd like them to be more useful - like legitimately useful
But I don't expect much, the game is slanted towards offence and they have none to offer

[cursive plank]

In all honesty just look at the mountain of blue books you have lol, I mean since most ships are designed after a historic version, its hard to design a defensive skill since not everyone had their ship head cut off like Minneapolis, or is Yukikaze

The game is somewhat slanted towards aggression as a result

[velvet adder]

That could be a reason, but it's also a simple matter of the game being a shmup - the action is fast-paced and defensive play goes against that

[cursive plank]

Makes sense too

How about making PVP more fun. I am not doing PVP for one reason: I have to equip all PVP ships, and when I farm, I need to equip my farming ships and take items away from PVP fleet.

So here's a possible idea:
Make PVP able to use every item that you own, doesn't matter if another ships uses it, doesn't matter what is actually equipped.
Let's assume I wanna use my Ayanami for PVP and I put her in my PVP fleet, either defensive or offensive, they'd both act the same way. My PVP Ayanami would have no equipment, doesn't matter what she is actually holding. Then I can select any gear I own, this gear is still usable for non PVP ships, so I can use every item once for PVP and once for non PVP. So my non PVP Ayanami still holds toolboxes and my PVP Ayanami is holding Oxygen Torps.

Would make it more fun and would make me, and I think a lot of others play PVP more because you do not have to switch gears all the time. Got exercise points? Equip pvp ships. Exercise points gone? Equip non PVP ships. and so on.

is there currently any rework on subs planned?

[shell bramble]

Such as what?

There are various pieces of feedback that have been suggested, but an entire overhaul seems... excessive for them to have commented on so far

[sage cliff]

to giving them a purpose to actually ever use them.

[ornate basin]

not that we know of

[sage cliff]

I just see no point why i would ever use subs for anything.

1. the gear is cancer to grind
2. they mostly cant reach the only useful target (boss)
3. Every world is manageable without subs
4. they cost extra oil and it would be a waste considering you want to farm as oil efficient as possible.

The only reason i could ever see myself using subs would be perhaps if there is such a hard world for 3* clear that 2 full fleets of max leveled ships and perfect gear still isn't enough, but that seems ridiculous unlikely to ever happen.

maybe some maps will have sub requirments? idk

[rare jay]

@sage cliff Just to let you know as well, we actually do have several suggestions that would solve the issues that subs are facing (including a couple you listed). Namely, making the gear easier to grind/get and being able to change/reroll their hunting range to hopefully get the boss spawn in it.

Just thought about it literally in the shower:

If PR Ships cannot be retired then what's the point of the Ship Lock Feature on them? 😅

[naive cobalt]

Because why go out of your way to specifically disable it on them?

[slate monolith]

Also, if you did retire them, you would go though the whole 3mil xp grind along with everything else there too

[nocturne panther]

IIUC, the feedback is more about "why have a feature (on a certain category of ships) that doesn't work" since it might be misleading for people who don't know they cannot retire a PR ship and might therefore, e.g. fill a bug report when it's not a bug

Regarding the "you have grind again then" point, some people play the game only for waifus and if PR ships are not waifu enough for them, I'm pretty sure they would actually be ok with scrapping them to free some space

But then again, why obtain PR ships in the first place in that case

[slate monolith]

It might have to do with the whole locked ships are used for advice for commissions

[snow pendant]

it would be nice if we can have different dorm BGM but that's too much to ask cuz $$$

@sage cliff Subs are useful for farming, dealing damage to fleets to help your fleet, but yeah subs aren't that useful

It's been said since they've been released, that there needs to be some way to relocate them

The range doesn't help, it make more difficult to use the subs, having more that one spawn for them and/or the boss is even harder to use them.
Autosub should if it is the boss node, active the subs when the boss spawn

[velvet adder]

Feedback regardless current state of pvp. Some might say, lol gacha pvp xdxd who cares. Well, i do. And i hope people on pvp channel as well. And many others i think will if these changes will be applied.

1. rework seasonal rewards, make it so it's not just merits on all ranks and therefore for a casual player it's not bullins only and nothing else. Add something for top 1000, top500, top100, top10, top3, top1. Be it unique borders, emotes, gems, blueprints, ship skins, materials etc. Make it worth for all people to pay attention to.
2. add more stuff into merit shop. Add books, bps, materials, cosmetics(borders, weapon skins or anything like that) more unique ships so it's not just bullins and purple boxes for players.
3. Do change stats of certain ships in pvp. Balance them. I know currently ws kai and probably some other ships have reduced fp on jp/cn, like ws kai has it fp reduced from 100% down to 80%. Do the same for all problematic ships that make meta stagnant and one sided. Leave them how they are in pve, noone cares if Amagi might have the highest fp among all bcs(on top of having strong buffs/debuffs and strong aiming barrage) and out of all bbs only 8 have fp more than her. But do nerf their fp or barrage to sensible numbers in pvp.
4. Based on point 3, don't let meta to be one sided to 1 particular backline setup. Make it diverse, so each nation could have it's own fleet with wr % on offense being +-equal to that of others. Right now, the only setup en will be seeing for the next 2 years+ in top100 for sure, top500 highly likely is: random ijn ship but probably hiryuu in most of the cases/nagato/amagi, juneau/yuki and whatever in slot 3. And according to ppl who have been playing on jp/cn it has the highest wr on both offense and defense. Even broken ship as ws kai wasn't enough to break that circle, that sort of says something. Uss and kms is just being non existent.

5. Do something about cvs(maybe just buff some of their stats for pvp for now, like i said earlier), with lvl 120 cap they are getting outclassed(well, besides ijn because of amagi powerhouse) and in most cases you just have to run 3 bbs/bcs if you want to have your wr more than 50%(which will be pretty impossible anyway again unless you run the only meta comp with nagato/amagi). Or just rework them entirelly/make a new mechanic(for example, creating a 3rd row in the backline for them, where enemy can't target focus them unless broken through your vanguard)
6. Do something with subs, so that there was a place for them as well.
7. Remove 20% dmg buff on offense. Make the distance between backline, vg and your enemy equal. Right now it's your vg is being close to your backline, with a smaller area to maneuver in. And enemy vg being closer to your backline, while also having a bigger space to move in. That makes some things look stronger/weaker on offense and defense. Or make these rules being applied to top500-1000 only, so casual ppl would feel more confident if they aren't that high in the ladder.
   So, that in my opinion would bring more attention to pvp and make it worth climbing the ladder, rather than stocking bullins. And for hardcore players it would keep em in the game, since for many i believe it would be more satisfying to explore new possible setups counter setups etc, rather than making their 1000th run through w11, w12 or whatever

[formal oyster]

Bringing more interest in PvP would indeed be a good thing. However I'm not a fan of exclusive content ( such as borders, skins or whatever ), wouldn't be fair for people that don't PvP.

[velvet adder]

I think It would be fair because ppl would need to make some effort in order to get it. You don't get stuff for free while doing nothing, you know. That not how the world works

And for the sake of competition there should be exclusive rewards.

Yes, enforcing meta is also a good thing if nothing above helps to change the stagnation.

[formal oyster]

@restive mountain PvP and PvE are very different. The latter is far more accessible to everyone. If you want the dorm reward, as long as you have the proper level and equipment to beat the EX ( and lately it's not even the EX, just the last SP stage ), you'll get it. For PvP it's a completely different story.
@velvet adder It's not about getting stuff for free. It's about not letting exclusive content to a very few people capable to get it. I totally get that people that invest in PvP and get a good rank should get nice rewards, but I don't think exclusive content would be a nice way of doing it. If anything, you will just disappoint people that will not be able to get this reward anyway because it will be very limited.
There's already plenty of nice rewards you can give for high rank players ( gems, cubes, PR blueprints, gold etc. ), stuff that can be rare for other players, but not inaccessible. That way PvP players can get their sweet rewards, and we can avoid the frustration of non-PvP players because they're missing on content they would want to get but can't.

I mean, a lot of people were already disappointed with the border exchange of the last event. Not because they wanted it for free, but because the task felt very restricted, in particular when you were not prepared for it.

[velvet adder]

it's something to signify that you put a lot of effort to get

like the medal

[proud snow]

The event period is way too short, even the Ryuujou event last longer.

[velvet adder]

Border for top 3 or top 100 should be exclusive, BUT, there might be a compromise if you make it like in some competitive games, you keep that border untill the season reset. So If you don't get your top 3 or top 1 next season it disappears untill you get that rank again

[honest rune]

Nah @proud snow Same 6 days on EN, in JP Glorious event last longer tho

[proud snow]

@honest rune I dun have all the time to grind. I need to grind there 10 times a day. This is impossible.

[true wave]

Glorious event was only 6 days in JP too, the rerun was 11 days though

[formal oyster]

@velvet adder Yeah I can see that type of system, could be nice.
In the end all I'm saying is that you can please PvP players without disappointing non-PvP players, so why not do it this way ?

[honest rune]

No, Just CN?

[formal oyster]

@restive mountain Yes, that border exchange was poorly designed, but it was the first one on EN ( and If I'm not mistaken even on CN there's not a lot of them ), they may learn from it.

Yeah ultimately the nature of the rewards can be discussed, it's just a matter of exclusively limited/non-limited to me.
Also before all that, it would be wiser to work on those balance and PvP meta suggestions, I guess

[honest rune]

If they do rework pvp, the buff/debuff should be a thicc one, like 100%+ eva to CAs

[proud snow]

Still, the Glorious event is way too short. Not fair to ppl who cannot afford so much grinding time.

[rare jay]

I mean, it's only 10 runs a day on average, which really doesn't take long since the event is pretty low LVL. Or alternatively if you don't wanna grind that much, you could also roll the gacha and get Glorious that way. You have two avenues you could take for the event. A grind option or an option that'll cost you, but allows you to bypass the 60 runs.

[velvet adder]

@rare jay Will my feedback be added on trello?

That wall of text is all well and good, but it forgets the main issue with PvP - you can reset away a match until it swings in your favour and you win, with no repercussion whatsoever.
You know, the main reason why PvP is a joke and those who tryhard at it are pointed and laughed at? Seems to me that should be a bit higher on the priorities, as this is a fundamental flaw of the system and makes everything else irrelevant

Yeah but you understand making PvP more "interesting" doesn't matter if you can still cheese the hell out of it

You have to start somewhere. Making it impossible to reset in it's current state will make things worse. Without any even slightest hint of balance, it will make it even more of a dumpster fire. But It should be reworked for sure

And while they introduced new ui, it should be about the time to do it

You know how the average player operates - if you can't convince them subs are useful, do you really need think they'll care about the subtleties (what few there are) of the mode if they're not given a reason to?

First things first, fix the most obvious and glaring flaw in the system - build upon it afterwards, as it should be
You don't start building a house from the roof, after all

That's why you sweeten the pill by offering them valuable rewards

Maybe, but not while the house is still built on swampland

If you remove resets right now, and then you start balancing ships around it, it will be a pain for everybody

[grave kettle]

Reset is by no means the obvious flaw. Its the freaking rewards. Having fun is one thing but you can only do something for so long with no compensation whatsoever.

[velvet adder]

i can guarantee you. Many people lack amagi, yuki and nagato. They will be destroyed and it will kill any desire to pvp for them

If it's about having PvP be "rewarding" rather than "competitive" yes, the priority may shift towards the meta buildismantling stuff and y'know, adding shit to the shop (which has never been updated ever since I started in CN)
Which is what I'd prefer anyway, to be frank

[formal oyster]

I doubt you could even make a good competitive PvP system that would be popular in Azur Lane anyway. Without rewards, people won't bother to play it. Look at EX

[velvet adder]

You're at the mercy of RNG, which is why PvP feels like a joke to most - the ability to reset just seals the lid on it

It's not a competitive game to begin with, but I suppose there's nothing wrong in demanding better rewards from it? As I said, it's basically two years now and the shop hasn't seen a single update.
Good source of Bulin/Purin though

[formal oyster]

Yeah the entire PvP system is so flawed right now. That's why I was against exclusive content for it because that would certainly disappoint a lot of people that don't want to invest time in something that is so inconsistent in the results.

[velvet adder]

Oh yeah, the exclusivity can go down the drain for all I care. To tryhard or not is a personal choice, and so far - as CN/JP has observed with the Challenge Mode - AL has done a good job at giving reasonably accessible rewards to most (ie. Score 8800/12000ish) to get the border while letting those who wish duke it out on the leaderboards for the highest scores on Unlimited

[rare jay]

Well I got a gist of the ideas listed down for now. I toned down the rewards part to something like a chat title/boarder that simply last throughout the season. This is due to the fact that adding completely exclusive stuff to the high end, while rewarding to the harder workers, creates frustration and damns players who either don't have LVL'd up ships (such as new players) or players who just don't like PVP. Also took the part of the merit shop update out as we have a card for that already https://trello.com/c/G3itMyUj/738-ideas-of-pvp-improvement

If anything, having multiple avenues of cosmetics/borders/medals etc. acquisition could be nice in theory

Thank you! ❤

The risk here being that giving too many viable avenues may reduce the amount of cosmetics you can get, since if everything counts toward one thing, you're only getting one thing per patch, as it were - but then again I don't exactly expect to be flooded in borders and stuff so that may still work out

I agree that PvP should not have any exclusive rewards, but there needs to be some tangible rewards for people who are dedicated. Like name on a scoreboard is not enough imo.

[ionic grail]

Even weapon skins are cool enough

[eager basin]

The first steps to take towards making pvp more enticing are to halve the effectiveness of all defensive skills (ie: amagi buffs, enterprise's lucky E and hiryuu's invul duration), and change all the useless blue boxes that clutter the merit shop and add things that people might want, such as oil, gold, pr blueprints, etc. Everyone I've seen drop pvp cite the meta being cancerous as hell as their reason, while lucky E isn't exactly powerful in the grown up meta, when people are just starting she terrorizes them in pvp. Hiryuu/Nagato/Amagi is another cancer that is plaguing pvp right now, and it will get worse when Hiryuu gets her remodel. Stacking defensive buffs makes the entire thing too unfun and RNG for the attacker to hope for good torps crits, and that itself brings us to the other problem of needing a torp vanguard to have a chance against these comps.

[velvet adder]

Losing to Hiryu is just people being bad, but that's another matter

Yeah actually, weapon camo wouldn't be terrible, make them available through the PvP shop - better than throwing gold at it at any rate

[formal oyster]

I agree for Gear skins. Especially since they cost so much ( and are RNG to top it off ) and we got so many gold sinks added in the lasts months without getting more gold income.

As for separate fleets, we already get the fleet loadout card that can fulfill this.

Nah, OBT just means "Open Beta Test". It's just a time stamp of when the suggestion was noted down. There's CBT, OBT, and Full Release

[merry elm]

[simple saddle]

have guild wars been suggested yet

[merry elm]

This might be a strange suggestion, put i'll put it out there anyway.
__Improve Notifications __
Two improvements i'd like to suggest
1. Notification Sound Cooldown - Should be possible as i have a few games that do this, able to set a cooldown timer for the notification tone, specifically when we finish ships training, typically all 3 of them finish at the same time, or several 1 hour commissions, sounding 3 notification sounds in a row, a cooldown would be nice to stop this (it's awkward in a classroom or workplace as opposed to 1 Notification Sound).
2. Bundle Notifications - I think Girls Frontline does this, example image attached.

[velvet adder]

bundled notifications are a Android 7 (API 24) and above feature

for people running legacy devices this won't work

[merry elm]

I'm using a Oneplus 6, Android 9.
Would still be a nice thing for people on android 7+.

[velvet adder]

@simple saddle Sorry for the delay, but yepp. Guild Wars has been suggested along w/ plenty of ideas for Guilds that'll hopefully happen one day

[simple saddle]

[sage cliff]

for one thing it would be nice if you could actually play your own ships in pvp, nothing bothers me more seeing my ships running into torpedoes while the enemy evades, triggering barrages when going into the corner and other bs, i have to reset over this many times when i fight equally strong fleets until stuff procs rights and the ai doesnt mess up

[velvet adder]

Can we have this say "Retreat" rather than cancel?

Since I click cancel to exit out of the menu, not meaning to retreat from the level

Yeah, it has horrible wording. But the buttons are working as intended. "Cancel" your current stage or "Go" to it and finish it

another thing for pvp would be make it more interesting and worth investing in, as someone who has sodak and eldrige, more than enough gold gear, bullins etc there is nothing worth buying apart from the 1 cube here and there. expanding the shop would be really good. and ranking rewards. doesnt have to be exclusive content but maybe research gear / gold gear , core shop gear. or semi-exclusive content such as unreleased gear, that a month later everyone will get anyway. kinda how kc does it tho its not fully pvp dependant there

rightnow pvp is nothing more than oil free leveling of weak ships for me

[shy pond]

Improve merit shop, yes. I suggest a bigger cube pack(10k for 4/5 cubes?), along with simply removing T1 and T2 boxes from the rotation. Add some gold and oil bundles for good measures. And maybe an universal PR blueprint?

[honest rune]

5k for a PR print?

[shy pond]

Your price suggestion?

I use the shop to mainly hoard bulins now

[honest rune]

10k for 5 prints?

[shy pond]

I'd say. 2 for 5k and 5 for 10k. Two shop rotation items

[honest rune]

Remove SD and Eldridge if you have them in from the shop too

It is better to buy a purin that those 2 again, (If you really want them to mlb)

[shy pond]

Not an option IMHO. You should be able to acquire them again. Maybe have them separately as perma items?

Making the overall stock bigger

[honest rune]

Yeah but not something like subs box in exchange shop where it blocks a slot of stuff.

[shy pond]

I will say though, I'd far more like there to be a lower acquisition rate for the Universal PR BPs in the shop if that is going to happen. After all, they are still a very valuable item....

[honest rune]

A T5 crate for 5k?

I received Southampton but can't see her on my squad.

[rare jay]

Not a bug. Her lines aren't updated yet

Also, that'd be more for #bug-reports for future reference

[proud snow]

It doesn't make scene. She can't even be found in my dork.

[rare jay]

Oh, you meant you can't find her. My bad, I misread. But anyway, let's take this to #bug-reports

[viscid halo]

I feel that a simple balance fix for AR could simply be just to reduce the oil cost by maybe 30%. Right now, Akashi costs 11 oil, which is hella expensive for a ship that does no damage to enemies outside of AA, and provides a lackluster heal. If you costs maybe 7 oil instead, it'll be much more worth it to bring her along on maps where u need the extra ammo and slight heals instead of dragging along another damage dealer.

[velvet adder]

Cost is inconsequential later on
Do you bring Erebus to W12 just because she costs 10 Oil?

[viscid halo]

No, but erebus doesnt offer me much for 10 oil in w12. Whereas an extra ammo, 3 repairs, and a slight heal every battle would be a good choice if i can bring akashi and cut down maybe 6 oil per battle compared to bringing another bb/cv when farming.

[velvet adder]

The ammo is useless, the repair is negated by taking more DPS, the slight heal is likewise useless - the one reason you want an AR in W12+ is AA and cheap farming

Erebus won't offer much, but neither will ARs
Cutting costs doesn't make them any better

[naive cobalt]

Hm, that might be a nice buff, even if doesn't adress core issue.

I'll add it to the card later

[viscid halo]

I know that a damage dealer would be more useful, but my point is that ARs are meant to keep your fleet cheap as possible when farming, so it would be a good idea to reduce their cost even further to make them more attractive. For eg, right now, Im farming 1:1 in sp3 with 1 fleet, but sometimes, my vanguard falls dead to the boss cuz 0 ammo. So, I am faced with the decision to bring a 11cost akashi or a more expensive damage dealer for a few more oil. 11 cost is pretty steep, so i decided to add another damage dealer that can help me grind PR as well. However, like I mentioned, if the cost difference was larger, like if the damage dealer costs twice as much as Akashi, I would prefer bringing Akashi.

[velvet adder]

Arizona, here's your solution to the vanguard falling apart

[viscid halo]

She's still rng dependent, and still costs 3 more oil.

[honest rune]

Well, AR are the only ones that repair the backline tho

[velvet adder]

Which shouldn't be taking damage in the first place, and wouldn't take damage if you killed what could damage it before it got the chance to

[honest rune]

Sure, but Battleships aren't easy to kill

[velvet adder]

Clearly you need better gear or BBs of your own, if that's what you think

In a pre-W12 environment, ARs are little more than a cheap-farm enabler at best and a dead weight at worst (which is most of the time)

[naive cobalt]

I'll be honest - don't see how any of it is relevant. Alternative solutions are fine and all, but nothing to do with the suggestion someone gives. They giving an idea how to improve thing, not looking for advice how to play or what to use instead. This here not #gameplay-help

You really don't need to argue with everyone who gives suggestions about ars to "use arizona instead"

[velvet adder]

Well, I'd already expressed multiple times how they can be fixed and lowering the cost isn't it

[shy pond]

My suggestion to help ARs is to make the repair crane effect apply to all ships in-battle when the effect procs

[naive cobalt]

O right, I was going to add that one, but my internet died. I'll add it if it's not there already.

[shy pond]

My idea surrounding AR reballance is that they should slowly heal the entire fleet-whereas Shouhou and Uni heal faster, but only the vanguard and it is a burst heal (worse for sustains in certain situations)

[proud snow]

A question that I had for a while now...is that a bug or some sort of placeholder?

[naive cobalt]

placeholder

also #bug-reports next time pls

[proud snow]

Alright

[formal oyster]

@honest rune Just as a slight reminder, Belchan can also heal backline
Other than that, yeah it'll take more than a cost reduction to make AR ships viable, but it would still be a nice start.

[honest rune]

Not that much, but I did forgot about that

[timid trench]

i dont get the purpose of having a checkbox that you're notified for the patch note and auto battle when you have do it LITERALLY everytime you log into the game

You're exaggerating slightly. It used to be every time you login, now it's just daily. There are also existing cards asking for the option to have the acknowledgement last permanently.

[naive cobalt]

LITERALLY everytime you log into the game no, you need to do it LITERALLY once a day

regarding earlier feedback i noticed the same thing in pvp, for some reason the enemy enterprise seems to procc alot more than mine, mine is maxed out level/skill/affection. so its not that. i noticed that since month but always thought its just me being unlucky

not just here and there but literally every battle an enterprise is in i can already tell mine is proccing 1-2 times best while enemy one will procc nonstop

[rare jay]

That's just unfortunate RNG if it's true. All Entys with a maxed skill will have a 70% chance to proc. PVP does not affect chances at all.

[velvet adder]

Not "naval significance", but a "significant help" to the land forces

Somehow I misclicked and I got here while typing

1 new ship is needed for the boss fight - a small torpedo boat

The torpedo boat can only attack underwater normally, but Soviet navy managed to USE THE WAVES to adjust the launch angle to use the torpedoes as ballistic missiles. It was an amazing success, there's even a torpedo boat memorial in the city of Novorossiysk

[ornate basin]

are you asking there be a new mechanic to ships?

[velvet adder]

Well, any TORPEDO BOAT class ship could possibly do the boss fight, but it would be best to be done using a Russian torpedo boat. The new mechanic for those boats is "wave ride", intended for some boss fights

[ornate basin]

im going to ask if we can accept this feedback since we are not allowed to take suggestions on new content
I will let you know of the outcome

Perhaps this is more of a Crosswave content than Bulletstorm content

Since Avrora was already sorta useless in WW2, perhaps age her up to be the "granny general" in Crosswave?

[reef basin]

Without trying to exaggerate, this mini event is like the worst event thus far.

• 5 attacks to boss on lv 53 mobs
• enemy spawns can easily block you forcing you to do an extra mob attack
• you can get ambushed despite the 2 facts above
• exp is bad
• sp2 has the better SR gear to get and gives no credit for 60 runs
• have to do 60 runs or spend cubes if you dont get glorious as a drop, and she's mediocre at best
• 1 week to complete

i'm not really sure what the goal was with this event.
i have no issue with there being mini-events to help out newer players or just fill up downtime, but this just feels like an overall waste of oil that im obligated to do for my collection %

[tardy arch]

eh, i don't mind it. i like how they handled the event ships so you don't have to build to get it, you can just farm for it. i've got way to much oil anyways so i really don't care. i'm practically burning oil for the pr ships so this is nothing to me.
also any event to help out newer players is gonna feel like a waste of oil.

[reef basin]

If you do the math for a vangaurd PR for example, having 2 1:3 fleets where someone in vanguard always gets mvp and you keep your 20% morale xp bonus would only give you about 1mil xp for the 60 runs and cost like 8-14k oil depending on what ships you use.
its pretty inefficient imo, but i guess if you dont care about oil or time spent to farm exp it doesnt matter. which is kind of the point of my issues with it

[tardy arch]

well i don't use events to farm for xp. i use the normal worlds to do that.

[shell bramble]

It's an old event. While it would be nice if they modernize it, I'm not terribly surprised they left it as-is. Like, "This came out 5 months after the start of the game on CN" old.

[tardy arch]

oof. i'm not surprised either. i'm sure if they changed it they'd have people bitching at them for it.

[shell bramble]

I think on the rerun version SP3 is like in the mid 70s? I couldn't actually tell if that was the case or if the wiki got somehow utterly messed up in descriptions of it at one point in time.

[reef basin]

70 is fine, then the exp is like 7-2, but this is almost half the xp of 7-2

[shell bramble]

You're hoping the experience would be like that. There's not really even proof it would do that cause the event XP distribution is utterly bonkers

But anyways, I just wanted to offer context on why it's like this -- for the most part they seem to have learned and newer events aren't as painful, though of course valid feedback would be "Even for older events coming to EN, please take the time to tweak certain values (XP / enemy health / etc.) to be less painful"

[reef basin]

5-3 has the same enemy level, its 4 battles to boss and gives 475/518 for med/large fleets opposed to SP 3's 348/388

yeah it makes sense knowing that its one of the first events

[tardy arch]

really wish someone would turn the reactions back on coughcough
ya that's an on the xp.

[ornate basin]

yalls lost ur privileges

[reef basin]

it would just be nice if they tweaked the numbers a bit, especially in a time where i feel like a lot of people are feeling the PR burnout. to have something this inefficient come out is just kind of a bad idea

[somber rain]

another thing to point out about this event's 1st version, even though it's Lv. 50 ish the enemies, the amount of HP bars they got is silly

[tardy arch]

i'm taking the pr ships slowly cause good lord those xp requirements.

[reef basin]

yeah i burned myself out getting roon and monarch in the first 2 weeks, took me 3 weeks to get saint louis afterwards lol. im taking it much slower now

[tardy arch]

ya and then you have the absolutely insane people getting all of them within a month 👀

[shell bramble]

Stay on topic folks this is for feedback

[sage cliff]

modernizing the mini event would have been nice yes, especially if they integrated pr blueprints as en is getting shafted alot with those

[shell bramble]

How are we getting shafted? The two major events we've had have had since PR was even introduced have rewarded general ones

[coral pine]

Not normally one to nitpick on localisation, but could we have Acasta's outfit name returned from the current "Fashionable Outing" to "Going Out In Style"? "Going Out In Style" much better captures the gallows humour of her self-destructive charge to torpedo Scharnhorst and ties in more thematically with her 'Death Raid' skill.

[shy pond]

This may get lost here, but I feel it is important to point out: If you have two events back-to-back as it seems we will get with the Glorious battle and the Iris event, could there be advanced notice? Some people may have whaled hard on the Schezro event and this one to get Glorious, so there may be some dissatisfaction with a new event hopping in directly afterward

[naive cobalt]

We not taking feedback on pacing of events and "advanced notice" is not possible due to certain reasons as well.

Glorious is a mini-event with only 3 ships all of which you're able to get for free guaranteed, with gacha being an alternative method if you can't/don't want to actually play the event.

Updates are usually done on thursday (unless there's some weird exception) so if we get Iris as early as possible - that's basically an "advanced notice" of almost a full week that event is coming. (obviously I'd regret saying this if Iris comes out like Monday for some bizarre reason)

[hasty sinew]

not sure if the follwoing have been suggested, I am sure they are
I'd like some different ships on the exchange (in build) perhaps some of the event ships for a higher price than normal, like 120 instead of 80? or something other than what seems to be the same ones over and over?

[mellow silo]

I suggest adding friends from different servers or switching accounts to different servers plz

[rare jay]

It's been suggested. Well, switching to different servers that is. I can add the part of messages to other servers

[sage cliff]

is there any change planned with auto battles ? because i really fail to see the point here. they are over too fast to actually multitask since you have to tab in back every 1-2 min again anyway as you have to confirm and click next node manually. Maybe speed auto battle up alot so they feel more like a quick battle to quickly finish dailies/farm ?

[rare jay]

Planned:not that we know of. But we do have suggestions for a type of quicker auto battle

[spice mantle]

If grand admiral has not been active for 1 month The Highest Ranking VA to be GA This could be good.

[dire isle]

I had a look at treelo but I dont see this feedback:

The EXP Receive is the same for 5 girls. It should be placed at another position, ex top bar, no need to place at 5 places like current design,
beside that, we can replace it by Current Mood stat, that will be better to follow girl moral for users.

[velvet adder]

I want to give feedback to Bel chan bot, but I feel like my feedback fits no category. I'm really triggered that users that have been banned previously can say anything without being censored. There are many players who complain about this in chat, this bug makes no sense at all.

[honest rune]

For Subs:
Is there a reason to use other torps than the more dps ones? If yes, never mind this. If not why don't make it useful in other ways? Like more damage but less reload, crit rate chance, flood damage...

[minor robin]

mk16 (US) torps are the all rounder dps
g7e (german) torps are magnetic
type 95 (japan) torps are the fastest traveling

[velvet adder]

The IJN subtorps need a little help to be fair, their fast movement doesn't make up for both the damage drop (-1 torp per salvo compared to UStorps) and the guidance drop (no homing).
Worse, the higher speed makes them less likely to hit rather than more, as it has been observed that slower torps may still catch a target on its way back from its movement pattern whereas the speedy IJN ones just zip past

[primal compass]

@agile otter Please fix the exit button I have to use the recent app button

[minor robin]

Its a reported bug, also in the wrong channel

[finite dawn]

Hmm, this channel is only for suggestions on the game or I can write feedback?
If yes, then this event is absolutely bad. I cleared the SP3 map 60 times, but I did not get any Glorious during this time. I was bored on the thirtieth attempt. Absolutely boring and dull grind. Could it have been possible to make at least a unlimited hard mode, so that it was necessary to destroy not 360+ fleets, but 60+?

Or why in this map there are ambushes or airstrikes ... It's just terrible.

|| Sorry for the mistakes, I'm writing from the translator. ||

[lyric maple]

nobody said you had to get glorious, she isn't even good

and it's actually really good that you're guaranteed to get her at 60 runs if she doesnt drop

[naive cobalt]

While your feedback is legit - this is old event and it cannot really be changed since that's how it was before. At the very least, most if not all new events don't have ambushes which makes them much better to play.

can't really tell about "clear x runs to get the ship",since I don't know what was the last event to use this mechanic, but if you look at it the other way - it's just a guaranteed way to get it, if you're unlucky with map drops or gacha or if you don't want to spend cubes to get it.

[honest rune]

There are more events with "clear x runs to get the ship", Hardy for example, the event seems fun tho, not just farm this map for 60 times and get bored out of this game easily..

[solemn citrus]

Spee was also another similar event, and she couldn't even drop iirc. Build or 60 only

[honest rune]

They really need to step up their events, they are the same with a new mechanic or some new equipment, they aren't that fun after a while

[ornate basin]

They really need to step up their events
this is one of the first events though, since then, events have stepped up

[turbid loom]

the recent sub one (don't remember the name) was the first event that diverged in the gameplay. The others, iirc, have all been some variation of grind, either on event maps or on standard maps.

[honest rune]

They are doing great stuff but I don't think that is enough? Those events aren't bad and they are getting better

[shell bramble]

Okay, but "Do better" isn't really actionable feedback. Kawa's point is just to say that old events are a lot more painful in comparison, which we can all agree on.

[hollow ember]

Please, please efficientize the equipping process. It's so gawdaful to switch gears from full fleets to other fleets and unequip all and equip new gears on ships.

I'll give examples of when i need to switch so often if need be

Please do this as well

[naive cobalt]

It was suggested. Adding "already" to suggestion won't make devs to do it faster or have any effect

[formal oyster]

To be fair if Glorious ( or any other ship from that type of event ) wasn't grindable, someone would have come here to suggest that those ships could be grindable because bad RNG. I didn't drop her either in 60 runs and I'm pretty happy that they're giving her out after some grind. This is a grind game after all. And it's better that way instead of praying RNG for every event, it would quickly become unbearable for some people
Though I agree for the ambushes, but as previously said, it's an old event and ambushes usually don't exist anymore in the new ones.

[somber rain]

why did they choose to give original version of the Glorious event? only difference between both versions afaik is 15-20 levels difference, but provide 200 more Exp and exact same rewards

[sage cliff]

glorious retrofit when

[shell bramble]

Who can say. I'm surprised they did that but included the retrofits, but it's EN

[sage cliff]

en really needs to catch up on retrofits in general, i'm surprised it isn't happening faster, eventless weeks with minor updates are perfect for that

[somber rain]

A little QoL that would be nice to have: remove the +10 entry for SOS missions.
Sometimes i enter the map and accidentally either pick wrong fleet, or forget ASW gear loadouts. Ik it's on me , but would be nice if such QoL was in effect.
Or another option could be a notification before entering a SOS mission

[shell bramble]

I'll admit having done that the other day

[somber rain]

might happen to me very often maybe, probably, definitely it happens often

[void schooner]

I would think the big Sub icon that pops up for an SOS mission would be enough of a notification, though.

[rare jay]

@somber rain we actually do have a suggestion for SOS reminder to let you know to get the right stuff

Unless you meant swap entire ship loadouts. In which case, I don't know if that one exists / is part of another card

[deft loom]

is it possible to show which ships we can get when constructing ships? Like show their faces?

[shy pond]

If we got a list under construction with chances, maybe... But that may involve insane levels of disclosure due to laws regulating gacha in some countries

[tardy arch]

they're not asking for a % list for all the ships. besides, we already got a % list for the ship tiers. a list for what ships are in what pool would be nice. that way we don't have to go to the wiki every time.

[formal oyster]

Another daily notification for battles ? As if the auto-battle one wasn't already annoying by itself

[rugged spire]

i hope fix the skin, it very confuse how she sit down there, there is no chair or something like that so she can sit

[formal oyster]

@brazen root If he's spamming in the ship comments you can just report him, I don't see why you would need to block any of these words

He will definitely use other words
Also I don't know when you reported him, but as I understood the staff is kinda overwhelmed with requests for other things, so it may take a little while. ( If they even consider it to be sanctionable that is )

[hollow ember]

Add a scroll function for the lore of each stage please. It cuts off after three lines and I'm stuck curious. It doesnt look like a bug but an oversight

[rare jay]

We have it reported so ideally they’ll either add a scroll function or size down the text or something similar

[quiet obsidian]

I have know idea if this has been Suggested, but, Some of the loading arts for Azur Lane are against both Youtube ToS and Twitch ToS, so really any streamer who's affilliate and partner kind of needs to delete VoDs everytime they stream the game.
Would it be possible to consider a "Streamer" Mode. In-game that either censors all the "bad" loading screens or perhaps just stops the really really questionable ones from showing up at all?

[rare jay]

Yepp, it’s been suggested to have a SFW mode as well as being able to select only certain screens

[quiet obsidian]

👍 cool cool.

[shell bramble]

There are a couple of cards in that theme, one for toggling specific loading screens, another for having a SFW-esque mode in general

[quiet obsidian]

Yeah, its problematic for streamers in particular, because it is very genuinely against ToS... for both YouTube and Twitch.
(Youtube has strong no minor rules now, and twitch has extremely strong rules on nudity in general)

[velvet adder]

I have a serious concern here

[outer grove]

[velvet adder]

[shell bramble]

@outer grove We don't know at this time whether the content that is coming to JP rerun is coming to EN or not -- recommend staying tuned to #game-news for the official announcements when they come out. The feedback crew here won't be able to comment on the pace of content coming out, one way or another

[velvet adder]

shut the hell up, start. That is against the law to be showing that in this game

Ngl I think you're just overthinking or immedieately jumping to the slave aspect

[wanton rivet]

Maybe it's a bondage collar

Lewd maid.

[velvet adder]

maybe there's literally nothing in their character that points to slavery
if a chain is all it takes to be a slave, then clearly a padlock is a prime example of oppression and should be banned everywhere

ayt imma say cease unnecessary comments and let actual feedback only here

This at least has some plausible theories: https://www.reddit.com/r/AzureLane/comments/9ruujd/why_does_belfast_have_the_collar_and_chain_around/e8ju3ef

[velvet adder]

"The chain around her neck hearkens back to the chained collar of the wolf on the city of Belfast's coat of arms."

This one seems the most likely, considering one other artist bothered to reference Hood's own badge

I mean fortunes ball and chain isnt a sign of slavery its a sign of inprisonment jumping to slavery is dumb, shes literally in handcuffs too

[jagged tiger]

lmao slavery, its not like fortune is black and has cotton in the background art

slavery, imprisonment, whatever, i feel bad using characters that are chained up as if they're not allowed a will of their own & dislike "master" tropes personally

but there are other characters so whatever, i only said anything in the firt place to remind that guy that he can just use someone else

Well, it means we'll get it even faster

Being able to click on the icons for PR tasks to see how many of those items we currently have, rather than having to go into our storage, then going back to PR. Could be a nice QoL improvement.

[cursive plank]

With the CN and JP update notice introducing new things to the Core Data shop,here is what I have to say, if the next rotation is still the same for EN I am going to complain non stop here until it gets changed

My patience has already dried up and I am not feeling like waiting another month for 'maybe a shop rotation'

[slate monolith]

By shop rotation, you mean PR bps there?

[cursive plank]

Not just PR bps, in fact I care about them the least, I want any of Submarine Oxygen Tanks, McCluskey, White/Black shell, 818 Swordfish, and now new on CN and JP 831 Barracuda, Thatch F2A Buffalo

These instead of 381mm kai, HE CA gun and that purple plane please

I already have the numbere of copies I needed for these items and my shop is literally untouched this month

[normal vine]

@cursive plank I wouldn't necessarily say instead, rather in addition to - at least the BB gun is pretty good and I might want another copy at some point

[cursive plank]

Thats what the shop ratation is for, the item in the shop changes every month in other servers, so the 381mm kai can come back in later months

[shy pond]

I do agree in principle with @cursive plank There SHOULD be a different rotation

[honest rune]

T3 boxes in core shop are useless, buying them a waste for everyone

[sage cliff]

so is this a bug or why is the gear print icon always grey?
gold retro print because gold or lower drops
gold ship because gold or lower drops
gold box because gold or lower drops
why the grey weapon print tho? should be gold if gold or lower can drop

[naive cobalt]

it's not a bug, but it was suggested to make it gold as well

[naive cobalt]

@cursive plank @shy pond While I can't really promise anything or influence it, I let staff know about this issue and they'll see if they can do anything.

Seeing as feedback on the pacing on the game is being accepted nowIt's not

[vivid igloo]

Something I haven't seen on Trello board that came to my mind when I received medal for dailies today: Would it be possible to make in-game notification for other things? What I mean is, we already receive in-game notification when new medal can be collected. Using same basis, you could add notifications for commissions completion, lab research, out of food dorm notifications, training etc (basically same notifications as the ones that get pushed to our phones, but in-game instead, maybe even other notifications that would be useful). I don't know how feasible or if it's good idea, but it would definitely help players who are focused on clearing maps to know exactly when other tasks are finished.

[shell bramble]

I like the idea of that

[reef basin]

dont you already get notifications for all of those? i thought that was what the "<!>" was for

[vivid igloo]

What I meant is notifications similar to when you can collect new medal, the one that pops up on left side of your screen

[formal oyster]

He means phone notifications, not in-game ones.

[vivid igloo]

No, have none of you noticed that when you can collect new medal, there is notification pop up in game? Attached jpg of where it shows up

[formal oyster]

No

[shell bramble]

It's primarily used at present for when you get a medal in-game -- like getting SSR ship drops, or having run enough commissions, etc. ever since the UI update

[vivid igloo]

I would have to receive new medal to show it... which closest is either getting SSR or doing about 300 battles...

[nocturne panther]

To be fair, it flashes, then dissappears way too quickly (2-3 seconds?), so if we don't watch the phone/tablet/emulator window with AL constantly we can easily miss it.

So my suggestion would be "keep the side notification until a tap/click".

[vivid igloo]

That's... actually not a bad idea too, but it may be annoying during battles if it will be like that

[dawn jewel]

two suggestions (they're probably dumb):

1. a bigger flow of gems for free-to-play players (besides just commissions, and the beginning flow - the levels and ship star collections)

2. longer events rather than just 6 days maybe?

[shell bramble]

This was a mini event, and the length was probably to keep it in line with the length of time it was on the other servers (plus it's super old). Most full-content events last 2-3 weeks, and is the case for newer ones

[dawn jewel]

uhh i dont understand what u mean (sorry)

[shell bramble]

The Glorious event (current one) is running for a week, which is how long it ran for the Japanese & Chinese servers. In a sense, it's only "fair" for it to run that long on EN as well. But it's a very old event, as it initially ran 5 months after the game came out in China. But something like Scherzo of Iron and Blood (the newest event for all servers) ran for 3 full weeks, due in part to the amount of content there was for it.

I'm just meaning to share that newer content / events with more going on do tend to run longer

[naive cobalt]

I mean
Glorious is an event with 3 easy maps, no shop and 3 ships
Scherzo had 6 maps, hard mode with 6 more, SP with D0 and EX maps, several additional quests and missions, shop and way more ships

Of course it'll take longer

[shell bramble]

I mean, dude asked for longer events. I'm just saying that this is a mini event, and bigger events have longer time frames with them

[dawn jewel]

okay makes sense thanks all

[shell bramble]

As for your first point, about a larger flow of gems, I'll let good pal Restart talk to that point

[naive cobalt]

"give more gems" while definitely something bunch of f2p players would enjoy, is also not something I really want to talk much, or take feedback on, since it's about financial side of the game and can raise a lot of discussion

I can add more specific suggestions, like "rewards for binding the game", but just "give more free stuff" ain't it

Especially when game's monetization feature heavily and almost solely relies on buying skins and rings

Also I think something like that is what you asking for anyway https://trello.com/c/BUZ6WLiG/438-using-share-button-in-game-gives-rewards

Using Share Button In Game Gives Rewards

Give incentive for players to share the game with others. Many other mobile games have this feature. It can be giving gems or other incentives. It can even be weekly sharing like Girl's Frontline.

On the point of giving more gems, I could certainly see more ways for f2p players to at least extend their dock and their storage. Personally I'm whaling for that so I can't really tell, but I can see how f2p players could struggle to keep up with the numbers of (good) ships added. And giving them more ways to at least expand the docks from time to time would certainly be a nice thing, while keeping all others gems related stuff to cb players that financially support the game.
Because let's face it, dock space isn't just a "bonus" feature like a skin.

[rare jay]

Yeah, we actually do have a suggestion for dock expansion compensation for the amount of ships we get

Legitimate piece of feedback: As of now, with no dock expansions purchased, it is not possible to have more than about 70% of the ships in the game (EN). Many other gacha games such as FEH, FFBE, PotK, (I think Alchemist Code?), Brave Frontier, etc, have given character/unit ...

studied a bit, forgot most of it but it is pretty obvious mistake. The reason why I am even asking is because of a french person mentioning it on reddit

[naive cobalt]

It's also possible it's just twitter error and in-game is correct

Let's wait and if it's the same - I'll bring this up to them

[fossil kernel]

k works for me, thanks

[icy anchor]

fine with me too

[modern tusk]

Hello, a French guy here, I can confirm that "Fleur de Blanc" is grammatically incorrect, the correct spelling would be "Fleur Blanche" as for Le Mars grammar mistake, I guess it's only on Twitter's side.

[naive cobalt]

what's the killed joke? that's literally skin's name

[ornate basin]

[naive cobalt]

Like, I understand it's reference to manga

but it's not translated in english officially to have it "killed" because it's called differently

[plush breach]

[olive swallow]

Its supposed to be a reference, you guys naming it differently killed the reference

[naive cobalt]

It's a "reference" to fan translated name of the manga

Original is びそくぜんしんっ which is literally "slow advance"

[icy anchor]

that mostly depends on how you're going to read it

[naive cobalt]

not saying fan translation is wrong

I'm saying it's not "killed reference" or "joke"

[ornate basin]

[olive swallow]

Right, and now it's not a reference to anything therefore killing the reference it suppose to have

[naive cobalt]

[ornate basin]

are you sure its supposed to have said reference? as restart said its a fan translated name, so while it’s not official, it could also be 100% coincidental!

[naive cobalt]

Original is びそくぜんしんっ which is literally "slow advance"

[jade surge]

if its not referring to the manga, then its because shes really stupid so lets go with manga reference so the ones who picked javelin first dont riot

[naive cobalt]

no, it is absolutely reference to manga

but official EN name has absolutely no reason to have same name as fan translation just because it was first

not how things work

[icy anchor]

The skin is a commemoration to the release of said manga

[olive swallow]

At least naming it slow ahead would be a reference to something instead of nothing therefore killing any reference it suppose to have

[icy anchor]

meh, as long as official translation agree with it, I'm fine with anything

[naive cobalt]

Hm, I'll bring this up

[normal vine]

uuh, which 152mm gun is meant in the patch notes? there's so many, it should be more precise ...

[shell bramble]

This one, apparently: https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/Twin_152mm_(15cm/50_41st_Year_Type)#Type_3

[normal vine]

ah

something I thought about earlier today: any chance we could get two (instead of one) login ships per month until we've caught up? I want those cute J class destroyers and not wait for them another year ... (not to mention that we'll never catch up in regards to login rewards if we don't speed up somehow)

[naive cobalt]

don't think it's realistic by any stretch as it'll require

1. massive overhaul
2. that is temporal till we catch up and
3. only benefits EN

they'll probably just be added to permanent pool eventually as a compromise between endless catching up and not getting them at all, or be added as part of some event

I will add the card, just don't believe it's effective solution

No

Ok, what exactly you mean by "pacing"

?

Because pins specify pacing of events and order of content

Maybe I just misunderstood your initial suggestion

As having 2 ships won't interfere with pacing of events and how fast or slow they're being released

[grizzled rose]

More miffed about not getting Rerun Dunkerque and Forbin class skins. Did they not promise to at least sync up skins?

[naive cobalt]

Read a bit higher, it was brought up and I'll contact staff about it

Maybe I just misunderstood your initial suggestion Can you please repeat your suggestion again? @timid orbit
If I didn't and it really doesn't fit - at least I can try and explain why

[cursive plank]

Thanks for the Core Data shop rotation!

[high dome]

@modern tusk what is the Été Brillante skin name supposed to be?

[fossil kernel]

Été Brillant, so without the last e. Brillante is used for female nouns, but été is ''male'', so brillant

[high dome]

can ete be femenine or does it not have declension

[fossil kernel]

https://www.reddit.com/r/AzureLane/comments/c5sjv3/forbins_and_le_mars_skin_are_both_grammatically/ since I am not french, confimation from an actual french

I wouldn't know if there are ''multiform'' nouns but it should only be male

[high dome]

nouns like gato (male) and gata (female) decline differently (this is in spanish, but the concept is same in all romance languages)

[fossil kernel]

ah that's what you mean, I'd say no but as I said not French myself. But I definitely only learned it as masculine

[placid stag]

Hello i heard you needed a french

I made the post regarding Forbin and le Mars translation

[high dome]

the only question i have is the one you see here

about declining ete

i've already seen the problem with forbins "white that is a flower" name

[placid stag]

As i said in my post été is a male noun and and you can’t use "brillantE" , you have to use the male one "brillant"

[high dome]

there is no feminine declension of ete?

[placid stag]

No été don’t have a feminine form it’s un été

As for Forbin "fleur blanche" would be a better translation -> "white flower"

[high dome]

problem was we were given things like this フルール・ド・ブラン which is Furūru do buran

i already corrected the forbin skin and i'll correct the lemars skin as well

[placid stag]

I don’t speak Japanese so i can’t really help on that one but it seemed like the best compromise according to the original translation , it happen often to see way too complicated translations in french from other languages so i thought a shortened version that seemed the most accurate

[high dome]

it means exactly fluer de blanc

[placid stag]

Yeah , though word to word can’t be applied when you translate to french there’s a ton of annoying things that non-french speaker have trouble to deal with like the gender

And seeing the word to word translation the most accurate would be "fleur blanche" which doesn’t change the meaning and it’s commun to compare people/girls with flowers

[high dome]

my second language is spanish so i do understand what you're describing
that's why i was asking about the noun declension of ete

fluer de blanc looked odd to me but i trusted the jp knew what it was doing

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[placid stag]

French is really tricky x)

[high dome]

the trickiest thing i've enountered is chinese
it doesn't decline nouns for gener or number or posession
it doesn't conjugate verbs for tense or gender
and it doesn't inflect adjectives to indicate degrees of comparison

and it doesn't have particles to get you the rest of the way there

[placid stag]

Yeah chinese also have a reputation of being a really hard language

[high dome]

oh and it doesn't have articles like the and a/an

[placid stag]

Btw do you think the french translation will be changed soon ?

[high dome]

yes

it wont be changed in cn or jp and it won't change on twitter

[placid stag]

Ah nice it’s really great , as long as it’s fine in game i don’t think anyone will complain , i’ll email the japanese team about the translation too

[high dome]

but unless the developers object to changing it, which is usually based on their work load, it should be there by tonight's update

also changes like that are something that you should be bringing up here
the customer support email wouldn't have even seen that request until about 8 days from now

[ornate basin]

its also actually a bit longer than 8 business days anyways now

maybe 10

[placid stag]

Ah yeah i sent an email some hours ago i’ll do that next time , though as another feedback it could be great to have another note on wether or not en will keep catching up , it’s kinda confusing how the events are/will be handled and i’ve seen a lot of people confused on reddit , don’t know if it’s the right channel but it could be really great to have a bit more of communication about that

[high dome]

i think at the moment there's only what

2 outstanding events now?

[placid stag]

I don’t know what you mean big outstanding events (the big event at the end of the month?) but the wc notes along with the initial run mixed with the Emile Bertin retro is confusing , people expected a rerun version (i don’t personally i think catching up is a pain for every server honestly) a twitter announcement could be great to clear the misunderstandings

[high dome]

oh
that i can't comment on

[placid stag]

That’s fine you already helped me a lot with all the translation

[minor robin]

pretty sure it was said wc post that indicated we would not be getting any other full rerun as the first run anyways

[rare jay]

Well we'll consider the retrofit as an outlier regarding the release pacing. And as for the rerun skins, we're bringing it up to staff about why they're not listed

[high dome]

that post is also really old

[placid stag]

Ah yeah i went through the note again and it say "only then were we planning to release rerun content for our events" mb

I didn’t understood like that

Seeing all the hope from the en player it seems like i wasn’t the only one , as for the retros they can be considered a balancing i guess ?

Anyway thanks for the help with the translation mistakes 😄

[high dome]

np

[mint python]

Feedback: stop lying about jp re-run content

[ornate basin]

issues that werent held true in their previous statement are being brought up to staff

[minor robin]

What benefit is that supposed to provide?

[grizzled rose]

If staff absolutely refuse to respond to the rerun skin issue, then there’s something else going on here like trying to milk the l2d skin (they wont admit to that motive)

[rare jay]

Let's hold off on speculation such as that until we receive some response regarding the issue

[velvet adder]

as a laggard, in the long term, i would like to see a "permanent, side story" event

like side story of GBF or Revival Event in Enstars

in that way, newbies and returning players could collect ships from events which has long gone

[rare jay]

There is such a function in the other servers. Currently they have VDiR and WC. So itll be brought over after some time to EN

[velvet adder]

i mean start playing at the last stretch of VDiR

[celest abyss]

Yep, there is, lemme get a pic

[velvet adder]

only got zuizui from construction

[rare jay]

Well ships are added to permanent pool eventually

Zui and Sho are both added in the other servers iirc

[celest abyss]

Archives on JP
Has event maps, added with event ships going perm

[opal pawn]

@velvet adder all original event ship will eventually be added to permanent construct pool
if you are missing rerun version of a ship then you might need to wait a little more since as far as i know only original event of a ship got added into the pool

[velvet adder]

what about the minor operation?

[rare jay]

Minor operation?

[opal pawn]

same as big event

[velvet adder]

like PoW event, or moonlight overture

[opal pawn]

POW ships are already in the pool for EN
dk about moonlight since neither JP and CN got them in permanent pool

[rare jay]

PoW event ships are already added to pool. Moonlight ships will probably be added but we're playing it by ear from JP/CN for them

[ionic matrix]

I have to agree with people who are upset about us not getting the skins that are new to JP. It was stated in the letter that keeps going around from WC that they would release skins along side our events, even if our events were first runs and not re-runs. We got Nagato's new sleepytime skin when we got the ISSS event. It makes me wonder why we're not getting Dunkerque's new casual outfit skin with the Iris event.

[rare jay]

And as previously stated, we're going to bring it up to staff to get some information about them. So please be patient while we wait on that

[opal pawn]

pretty sure we are just beating a dead horse as this point but ppl already aware of the issue
the problem is non of the staff are online to even give them the feed back / brought the issue up

[ionic matrix]

Okay, I think I saw that earlier, but I just wanted to add my voice in on the displeased side. Hopefully I was being polite about it.

[rare jay]

No worries, you're fine

[velvet adder]

well then it's settled, i pray for the success of this game (and looking forward for the upcoming irises event)

[opal pawn]

tfw you want to see a riot cus the staff said they don't / can't change the outcome of the rerun skin in EN

[ornate basin]

well you’re just mean

wishing that riot upon us

[hardy nymph]

[violet owl]

suggestion: being able to remove all gear from all ships at once, or some other way to manage gear quickly

[rare jay]

A mass unequip has been suggested

[ornate basin]

feel like that one has been suggested, do u remember toaster?

I searched gear and got nothing

[rare jay]

Ye, it's just "mass un-equip" for keywords

[ornate basin]

I should go through all the cards and try to change them since people use different terms for everything

looking at you "sorties/battles"

[violet owl]

a way to do it would be like a remove all, and an auto equip best gear thing, would be a lot better for casual players

[opal pawn]

@violet owl the term "best" is situational so what might be best for 1 map might not be best for another map

if the casual player dk what / how to gear their ship they should go ask #gameplay-help

[violet owl]

yeah but a "highest level" gear thing would be nice for casual players

[opal pawn]

like how btd is gold gear but are useless compare to a purple hell diver?

[violet owl]

they wouldnt be maximizing fleet strength, it'd be more of maximizing time

[rare jay]

Hm...a recommended function for gear. Thatd be pretty subjective from ship to ship and hard to work out to actually BE the best set of gear. I'll create the suggestion bc itd be just like the advice for HM but itd need a lot of ironing out

[opal pawn]

i know you are trying to improve the experience for the casual player but like i said best is situational
also like i said there are purple gear that are better than gold gear (btd / comet vs hell diver) so by auto best / higher fleet power gear you are doing them more harm than good

[violet owl]

the autoequip i suggested, for casual players wouldnt make that much of a difference, mainly because, if they were actually pretty casual about the game, min-maxing their strength with their gear wouldnt be that important, becasue they wouldnt be doing hard mode or ex stages or anything, for me I sorta want this function to be added, so I could quickly swap between boats i wanted to level or something, that is all

[opal pawn]

i think a better suggestion would be to create a saved set of gear separate from a ship own save gear set so that you can just load up the saved gear set on a new ship w/o having to gear them up manually in the first place

[turbid loom]

Is the statement from aki in game-news supposed to address them going back on the WC letter? If it is supposed to be, then it addresses and resolves nothing.

[brisk pecan]

is that announcement in game news the devs response to the no rerun skins fiasco going on?
'cause that's just a tad vague, isn't it?

[rare jay]

If it is, it's not like they can openly say, "Hey, skins coming just a bit later". They can't go and spoil things such as that. It addresses that they will be coming, but just at a slightly later date. Which is still pretty close to being synced. But again, this is assuming that the post is for the rerun skins

[turbid loom]

All the statement says is "content is coming." It does not refer to skins, it does not refer to events. All it says is that between july 4 and the end of august there will be content. It also doesn't address the major problem of them doubling back on a public statement about the direction of the game. This isn't something that should be "spoiled" or not, this is a matter that needs to be directly addressed and put down asap

[ornate basin]

theres no point in assuming the post is about anything except whats stated
that being "stuff"
we dont know what stuff is

[brisk pecan]

just bad timing perhaps

[rare jay]

But again, there's probably a reason why they can't openly say things. They gave a response as best they could that was in their parameters. And for going back, it's still rather synced. Waiting about a month vs a year or so for a rerun. Why they didn't release initially, who knows. That's probably something to do internally with the devs. But at this point, we'll wait and see if Res gets a more direct response as to stop assuming

[ornate basin]

did he ever get a response?

[turbid loom]

going back as in the skins getting released alongside, not per the events. sorry

[ornate basin]

I dont remember sorry!

[rare jay]

He never said so I doubt he did while he was up. So I'll wait for that.
And yeah, still the same thing for the skins.

[ornate basin]

well hes offline or so we know atm anyways, he'll let us know if he does

[brisk pecan]

It's just such an abstract inconsistency, we had skin sync for the other applicable events.

[turbid loom]

but theres 3 skins for ships were getting that are not being released, despite the statement and past events saying we should get them

[ornate basin]

we've asked staff about it

its just the waiting game

for now

we know about the strange inconsistency with their statement atm

[rare jay]

If Akis post was regarding the skins, it means they had to delay them. For what reason, we dont know

[ornate basin]

we'll find out eventually

[brisk pecan]

yea but the vague stuff in game news is pretty frustrating and the stuff about us being impatient is sorta condescending, we literally just wanna know what's going on.

[ornate basin]

we will get an answer soon

stay tuned tm

[turbid loom]

thats not funny when DE do it with warframe, and its not funny now.

[ornate basin]

we understand your concerns

thats why we brought it up!!

we're just awaiting a response

[turbid loom]

I understand and appreciate that. This just seems to be the only way to get concerns through so I'm sorry for pestering. Lets hope this is resolved by the time the servers are back up tomorrow.

[rose prism]

1 week long events are bad civilization. Some of us have stuff to do... Not even all the cubes burned saved me

[woeful shale]

It would be great if we could have at least 24 hours prior notice before any planned maintenance. Notably, CN / JP seem to have announcements a few days before the planned maintenance whereas we got the announcement with only 12 hours to go. Would be nice to be able to stockpile and plan for big events properly. 😃

[minor robin]

No actually, JP patch notes came out less than 24h ago too

[lyric maple]

the first ship of this event was announced last friday/saturday, you can look up announced ships to see if they are part of an event

[minor robin]

I'm not sure about CN, but at least for JP, they're no different from us for when they get the actual patch notes or ship previews

[twilit pawn]

actually jp patch notes always come out 2 days before 90% of the time

[minor robin]

Seems like it's been getting later recently?

[twilit pawn]

not rly

recently only the ui one is delayed

[ornate basin]

they used to give out (en) announcements at 6pm

[twilit pawn]

but cn does send it out 1 day before

[ornate basin]

when suggested to give at least 24 hours notice, they said they'll try

and now its 12 hours woohoo

considering they couldnt make it 24 hours as they said they'll "try" im not sure if suggesting it again will have anymore impact

I can ask again, but im half expecting another we'll try message or something along the lines of not being able to

[nocturne panther]

I remember it being exactly 37 hours before maintenance, i.e. 11am 2 days prior in December-March (or until even April), then it got later and later

[shy pond]

Considering full rerun ships, here is my take: It is a shame it went like this..... The best course of action could be either pushing for the rerun at the end of this year or providing another chance of getting the ships in question (Introduce them at the halfway point of the event, or a special limited build). The retrofits honestly got me hyped too I'd say..... Kinda a shame considering the general positivity felt from the decision to include rerun ships in the Winter Crown and the fact we got Schezro at the same time as other servers

[woeful shale]

@minor robin , sorry, I wasn't clear. I'm referring to just the announcement of a maintenance happening - even without notes.

[minor robin]

Ah

[woeful shale]

It should not be too difficult to announce that there will be a Planned maintenance on a date 24 hours in advance, no? At the very least, it will allow players to adjust what players do in the day before the event. If they can announce it with more than 24 hours to spare, then that would be even better. At least we can stockpile more resources in anticipation of a major event. 😃

[minor robin]

Hmm yeah I think theres no problem with that actually

[ornate basin]

sounds good
only thing is if theyre allowed to mention it or not

[woeful shale]

@ornate basin , if they are concerned with announcing events, then they can just say: "We will conduct server maintenance on XXX, XX, 2019." There does not need to be further details announced if they want to keep it a surprise. This will just improve QoL and allow players to plan better. 😃

[ornate basin]

its a good suggestion im not saying that its not my concern is if they can mention it even like that, since yostar is the one in charge of what they say

[woeful shale]

Gotcha! Thank you for hearing me out. I hope that they can at least consider it. 👍

[ornate basin]

absolutely!

[velvet adder]

I would love to have the arrows on research facility to be enlarged.

While playing on my phone, my thumbs are dummy thicc that I accidentally push the blanks and it kicked me back into the choosing

[normal vine]

@high dome why would you need a gendered version of "summer"? (which is what "été" means)

[high dome]

because if there was a feminine version of été i would have used that instead since it is being used with a female character
