You guys say the hard mode is "positive" in the long run i might be the only one to think this but I disagree I just recently did the akashi questline and it made it longer then it should have been at least give that quest a change also hard mode change for core data was prob the reason I'm guessing

the change to hard mode was for core data yes
there has been suggestions to change akashi questline
and akashi questline is a 1x thing anyways, so yes, it is a net positive

I guess its just me but I dont see a positive point about it

core shop, less runs needed, no change to other drops
it's not like you're gonna be doing akashi quest for a whole year lol

Continuing with my rant, the R-class BCs were equipped with torpedoes at one point or another in their careers, not having them at all with both their designs. Lastly, I want to touch on the firepower aspect. A marginal increase from non-refitted Scharnhorst when comparing Scharnhorst to Renown is.... Blatantly stupid. This is due to twin 15" guns (Especially the 15"/42) being FAR more potent than the triple 11". And don't even get me started on the comparison to Gneis if you take skills into account
Also, another thing: Why is Repulse's speed stat different to that of Renown? As sister ships, they should have the same one, right?
All in all, the two R-class BCs are the most underwhelming of the whole bunch, especially with Hood and Amagi being the SRs. Hood has a 2-in-1 skill and Amagi... No comment there. Same could be said to a lesser extent for the Scharnhorst-class BCs. Yet due to their niche, especially if their skill gets altered to have homing torpedoes, I have nothing there....

Isnt zuikaku 5th car div?
cursive plank
@shy pond if Renown is faster it should be because of that funny incident where she is mistook as Nelson and given the name '29 knot Nelson', as we know a lot of the stats in this game is not just based of their specs but their popularity/history
As for Rodney, she holds the record for the only BB to BB (she hit Bismarck with hers) torpedo hit throughout WW2 and she ends up being the one without a torpedo while Bismarck having one is indeed a joke I told my AL friends, so I think Rodney deserves to get the torpedoes more than Renown or Repulse

Hello, I wish to make a suggestion about the difficult of hard mode in events, and it is to inrease it a little bit, because sometimes I feel just bored doing only automode, even the EX stage isn't enough because nore hardcore players don't get any rewards for it. I wish to recoment a video of a long time player who says a lot of things that I agree and should be a positive suggestion. I really love the game, but for me it lacks a bit of difficult in it.
The video: https://youtu.be/kdT0OPr7iQA

Difficulty is a tricky point. I believe current events (and by that I mean Simulacrum) are difficult enough while not being an insurmountable wall.
As much as I understand desire for more and more difficult content - events still should be accessible enough so not to feel like full fleet 120 is a must.

I just wish some stages that I can really feel the necessity of playing in manual, live the campaign last stages

Yo y’all. Not really feedback but I think would be pretty cool. As an event, add either the ORP Piorun or a few other Polish ships. Why Piorun? Because she was one of the first to see Bismarck, charged her on her own and fought for an hour, and shortly before attacking, flashed “I AM A POLE” to Bismarck. If that wouldn’t make some great extra dialogue, I don’t know what will.

We have a suggestion for types of safety nets (which includes multiple ideas such as a guaranteed SR pull after some time, increasing the likeliness of event ships the more you pull, etc). This way, it can easily help w/ pulls while also keeping the current generous gacha rates (comparing to other gacha games)

formal oyster
They actually do 
rare jay
I'm looking through your older messages. So what exactly is your buff proposal for them?
gloomy mauve
oops sorry maybe i messed some things up
shy pond
Sorry for being so late on this, but here goes: EXTREMELY low HP. Really, if one of them has a skill that requires her to get shot and hit, there should be a counter-ballance regarding HP. And maybe a bit more EVA to avoid some more of the damage (which is kind of even set as Repulse did historically display amazing handling during the last battle of the Z force). Secondly, their stats are inferior in all but two categories than Scharnhorst, with Gneis it is even worse. This is despite them being equipped with the 15"/42 gun (Which had such good accuracy that it was a problem at the Battle of Jutland). Thirdly. Skills. I am digging that one up again. Hell, they are just straight up... Bad. The R-class come off as inferior even to the Kongou-class, with the issues being the following: R-class only mounts DD secondaries, have 20% (!) Lower AA efficiency, lower HP, with all other stats being basically indistinguishable all across the board. The skillset kills R-class fully, especially Repulse. She needs a complete rework of her skill (or make the reload buff activate on firing the main guns (up to 50% reload stat increase for 8s, to the ENTIRE backline, similar how Hood's skill works). Overall, even while looking at Renown with her comparatively higher stats due to higher rarity, the ships just feel incredibly power-crept
Renown is slightly below average, pulling slightly ahead during longer engagements, but those are generally either bosses, or something going horribly wrong.
This is my caseand point for the buff of those two ships
Mind you, we have their pre-refit models in-game now, too. Renown recieved her refit and Repulse was overdue for one, but sank before she could return to have it done
rare jay

There is a suggestion for removing ambushes (on safe mode) cos honestly it's a really annoying feature that doesn't serve much purpose

If you are in hard mode and switch to a chapter where you haven't unlocked hardmode it shows the first error message which is misleading into thinking, that there is no hardmode for this chapter.
But when you try to press hard mode on the not unlocked chapter it shows the second error message, which should appear in both cases.
rain mulch
Sry, wrong thought, lololol
ʘ‿ʘ
naive cobalt
@gloomy mauve both messages are correct and convey exactly the information they supposed to
first says that you cannot switch from, for example, Hard Mode 7 to HM 8, since HM8 is not available to you ("not yet available" does not mean nor reads as "not yet released")
second says what you need to do in order to unlock this chapter's HM ("must get full stars in entire chapter")
In fact, changing it to how you suggest would be misleading and confusing, since it would imply that you need to get full stars in previous world HM, which is not true.
soft arch
I don't think this will change much, and I will not turn this into a rant and be as brief as possible. But considering my strong reaction of disgust upon Bache's design I can't help but not chime in.
I am fine with the some riskier designs like Albacore etc, because at the end, it is not too suggestive and they're still cute shipgirls. Bache however I feel like its way over the line. The hand gesture, open mouth, chothing, bandage and expressions makes what her intention is very clear and it makes me extremely uncomfortable. I'll retire her when i get her and thats a shame for a person like me who likes to raise one of each ship.
Aside from that, I do feel that she feels out of place in this game. I do really hope this is a one time thing and not the new standard.

from the bottom of my heart i am begging for something to alleviate the skill level grind
more books from dailies, books in merit shop, books for gems, books from cerrtain maps/hard mode/challenge mode, any one of these would be a godsend 
i have all three slots counting down every single day month after month and i feel like i will never catch up so i can use some new girls...
i understand the game is meant to be grindy, and thats fine, but skills are not grindy, theyre time gated, and to make matters worse, because red skills are so common, red books are used up nearly instantly, and then you're forced to wait even longer for red skills because you need to use the wrong colour books
if there was any way of gaining skill xp outside of a timer it would be wonderful 
velvet adder
timid trench
i dont see one that i was looking for from that link
naive cobalt
also - skills are diminishing returns. Very seldom you need to level it to SL10 and that's mostly barrages that change the way they work/amount of projectiles in it
velvet adder
why doesnt anyone say this
naive cobalt
and it's extremely easy to level them to SL7 or around that
velvet adder
it is easy , but well, everyone told me it has to be 10
naive cobalt
anything past that is just a min-maxing to get maximum from them, but at the cost of massive exp cost
velvet adder
well if that was intended it makes a bit more sense
naive cobalt
I understand the suggestion about getting more books or to get more red books specifically and we have some suggestions to address it iirc
like adding them to merit shop
static needle
add the suggestion to add them to pvp shop restart chan

oya its called merit shop
gloomy mauve
Since it takes so long to level up skills for the last few levels, I think it would be nice if you could queue up skill books.
Meaning you put a ship into the tactical class and you can queue up to a certain amount of books that will be used once the current one is finished. Similar to what happens when building ships or training Meowfficers.
naive cobalt
I believe we had a suggestion like this
tho I'm not sure if it was added in the end

I found it, but this says to add the sums, instead of queueing them up
rare jay
Yes. The total time it would take to finish and the exp acquired would be calculated by the type(s) and total books you use

I think to queue them up and use them one after the other would make more sense, so you could also cancel or remove the following ones

Idk if someone suggested this or not but this may be a good idea for both servers. Cause current cap is lvl 120. And that’s a lot of exp so any more than that is gonna be insane. Soo I’m suggesting keeping max maybe 120 or so for a bit but add some sort of lvl up with a material that can go along with the cognitive chips. So it the chips can still have some use. As well so the exp grind doesn’t get to insane but u still have something to keep the ships leveled up with different resources.
rare jay
While I do understand the idea, it's supposed to be a grind for the higher levels. It meant for late game content and I'd imagine that's their intent w/ it. And also, I'd imagine they have their future ideas for lvls and what-not already planned out
crude iris
Yeah very true. It was a thought to get ppl to catch up to that lvl or something like that
rare jay
Well it is permanent content and a full fleet of max level ships thankfully isn't required for events (at least currently) and is mostly just for late story maps and challenge stages. So it can be taken at a pace that players feel like at the very least

Here is a lil suggestion. Since we getting new saved fleets spots and got so many new ships lately many among them very good I got an idea it would be nice to be able to actualy use those in actual gameplay. My suggestion is to make some huge map with shitload of escorts where you could bring 4 fleets instead of only 2 it can be like limited to 1 battle per day or something but would be nice to be able to use more ships at once generally in some special map.
Option 2 make map where you bring 2 fleet but each fleet has like 5 main 5 vanguard spots and you would add ships there like as it works in hardmode

Has anyone sugested better matching for pvp? There are a few suggestions I have, such as an auto complete levels previously beaten.( Yes it might be a little op, but there are ways to make it fair.) Honnestly if I'm grinding to level up some of my new girls on the lower levels, I don't want to have to watch them fight.
So basically an auto complete on lower levels. Could be limited to how many you can do a day or do it at increased oil prices. Something.

Sort of, I kinda ran to thoughts together.
My issue with pvp is being a rather new player (about a week old) I'm going up against players that have 80 or more levels on me and way stronger ships, so I was thinking, a power level match up with in a specific range, or player level. Not sure, what can be done but when your given Only so many refreshes and 90% of the people your matched with WAY put rank you in power. It's a little disheartening.
@shell bramble
stone cargo
You have two options git gud and then go pvp to make your win:lose ratio good or go pvp anyway even tho you know you lose cuz in the end of the day pvp doesnt matter anyway and you get some exp and resources
errant carbon
Well thanks for the advice, as I said I'm fairly new and I'm sure as helpful as "get gud" can be. It doesn't change the fact that it is a bit unbalanced.
Then again I feel as though I've done pretty good for only being a week old. Almost lvl 40 and 25ish% collected. Yes it seems pvp and Clans don't really move any weight, but I'm a fan of challengeing but fair.
stone cargo
Pvp is generally rigged as hell and has no sway on anything anyway so even better matchmaking wont help. There are ppl who play for a year and have only lvl 70 cuz they play only once a while and ppl who play several hours a day and have lvl 70 in month and how you want to balance those not to mention the game cannot count ship synergy how lvled each ship is in the fleet since you can change your fleet anytime + ability levels etc
As the game mainly focuses on pve and there are way too many different ships and they are generaly incredibly unbalanced compared to each other cuz it doesnt matter in pve so reforming pvp would take redesigning all the ships stats and abilities from scratch
errant carbon
That's fair enough, I guess. I'm not a vet, so I'm not sure how this game flows or how its calculations work. So I thought it might be easy(ish) to fix, if it's not that's fine. I don't normally play to his kind of game, so I'm not familliar with the inner workings. Either way that may not be doable but it would be nice to be able to auto complete levels.
stone cargo
Dont worry the combat gets more and more interesting later so you wil be glad you can steer yourself.

it appeared right after i finished the boss node and it took me less then 5 seconds to do. i'm sure even busy people can spare 2-3 seconds completing this. this honestly feels insulting that they think people need this much time to complete something so simple.
minor robin
Better too long than too short
Also you'd be amazed at how many people don't even read the text on that screen 
I've seen this question asked at least 10x since maint ended in help alone, say nothing of gen or other channels
tardy arch
ik. but even with trial and error it should only take someone about 10-20 seconds (maybe 30) to figure it out. a minute max for the really slow ones.
naive cobalt
not like having less time achieves literally anything
so not sure what's your point tbh
tardy arch
it's like your teacher asking you what 2+2 is and giving you an hour to come up with the answer while the answer is handed to you. wouldn't you find that insulting? and yes a shorter timer doesn't "achieve" anything but at least my intelligence wouldn't feel insulted and i wouldn't think they think us idiots for giving such a huge amount of time to complete it. that's probably not their intent but that's what it comes across as.
formal oyster
The Hell 
naive cobalt
ornate basin
all tests are insulting
tardy arch
TL;DR the unnecessarily huge timer comes off as insulting to the players intelligence. even if "en can't read"
either shorten the timer or better yet make it a one try thing. that way if people fail they'll need to read what to do next time. 
naive cobalt
or we can also not do that since it's a timer to do it, not to solve it
tardy arch
then shorten the time to 1-3 minutes. that way people are given ample time to finish it and if they continuously mess up (somehow) they'll need to read what to do next time.
i honestly don't know who the timer is for. people with jobs and school would need way more than 10 minutes and people with free time would do it right away to get another one.
crystal path
i dont understand the issue of giving people more time, it doesnt affect you in any shape or form. if you can answer the question in less than 9 minutes. kudos to you. but sometimes people have to deal with unexpected and sudden events and have to afk from the game for a bit.
stable violet
I hope whoever said "this is insulting" realize that the minigame is not a "test of your intelligence" but most likely a captcha

no i don't think it's a captcha otherwise it wouldn't have a timer and it'd probably be something akin to what we usually see.
formal oyster
So your whole argument is : " I personally feel insulted that the game gives me more time than I need " ?
tardy arch
that and i genuinely don't see a purpose in it if the whole idea is "to do it later"

I feel I have a suggestion that would bring some use to Guilds. Right now a friend is struggling to obtain Essex from the event pool, and I am struggling to obtain Taihou. She has some spare Taihou, and I have a couple spare Essex. My suggestion is this; An inner-guild trade system to help members obtain ships they wish to use, much like the GTS from the Pokemon games. Characters you do not have locked can be eligible for this system, much like the retirement system over in the Build tab. Thank you for reading this suggestion, and I hope you consider it.

Just asking, did someone say that the votes in EN doesn't matter?
naive cobalt
huh?

They're worth as much as any other vote
shell bramble
I'm not expecting ya'll to have a response necessarily, but people are saying that if there's any sort of new skin or similar "prize" for the winning ships, only those from the JP/CN polls will factor into who wins, and not EN. Not sure where or why they're sourcing that, but it seems to be an idea that gained traction somehow.
naive cobalt
we'll see when we get to it
we don't know any answer about it
(and even if we knew - not like we'll be able to share it)
shell bramble
Of course. Just wanted to state it plainly.
naive cobalt
I understand
I don't know about anyone officially stating that "en votes don't matter" and you shouldn't trust anyone saying this unless they represent staff, if only because how would they know lol
I can understand where that sentiment might come from tho, but as it stands - it's pure speculation
eternal bear
Montpelier drops way too often and it feels like Denver never drops from light craft. On a list of ships to edit, Glorious like Victorious sucks and needs buffs. A ticket for more planes and base stat buffs is necessary to make her worth the Elite tag.
naive cobalt
Montpelier drops more often due to "rarity drop rate" and "individual drop rate" being different things - while Elites definitely have higher general rate, personal rate is lower due to sheer amount of ships these 12% split between.
Not much can really be done, except some very major construction reworks. (which were suggested before)
About Glorious - if you have specific reasons and suggestions how to buff them - I'd add them gladly, but just "give more stats because they're weak" can be said about too many ships, really.

This user interface is extremely confusing. This meowficer has the dmg boost and exp talents.
This one is level 5 so the first talent point. In the background you see the button "upgrade" next to the talent suggesting it can be upgraded.
But in the new talent screen it shows all new talents, making me confused cause it suggested that the new talents would override the old good one.

i believe this rng thing is just a poor excuse. Did other worlds and I got the points everytime. This should be the usual bugs on the spaghetti code.
minor robin
I mean, believe what you want
The staff told us it's intended for them to be rng
Regarding the mission rewards, i'll bring it up
Can't promise anything as always
But let's just wait for the bug to be fixed first since you'd be able to get 12 on the next 3 days
stone cargo
It’s rng? I always got it after every map so far
Haven’t tried to finish with lower than S-rank tho
minor robin
Yes it is
I've only done about... 5-6 runs on a normal map today, definitely missed getting it once or twice
stone cargo
I did 7 sos maps and 2 clears in world 12 and always got it so far hmmm
minor robin
Yeah it's RNG at this point
Good for you then
stone cargo
But I think this system is okay. The players who play more have generaly higher impact on the vote which I find fair enough. It would be weird if person who made acc like week ago and only good ship he knows is starter would sway the system same way as person who plays from almost begining and knows the ships
cursive plank
I disagree, I played enough to be at 12-4, so does my opinion not matter? I just poured 3k oil and got nothing
stone cargo
Even if you have shitty rng and get points only 1 map12 clear out of 5 you can still overvote someone who is stuck in map 3 and knows only starter but is already enough commander lvl to vote
I admit when there is RNG involved there is always a few ppl who get fcked up but in the long run as someone who beats map12 you still lead
cursive plank
Map 12 is also a huge oil sink compared to other maps where I can do a 1:1 fleet on, so the efficiency doesn't go that way
stone cargo
It’s not like you wont get any votes for the whole voting season. You just had bad start. But the only solution would be keep the system as it is “higher map=more votes” and only remove the RNG element so you get the vote after a clear for sure. Which I wouldnt mind at all problem is its kinda too late for that now they would have to somehow retrospectively give the points to players who missed it or reset the voting or something drastic
And since its on all servers worldwide they would have to do it on CN/JP KR as well to make them all have same value

It's nice that we are getting more Fleet Formation slots, but what would be really nice is the ability to have the same ship in different fleets, so you can have different set up with the same ship in them, so there is less fiddling around with the same ships, reducing loading times and screen transitions. Obviously you can't have two different fleets with the same ship sortieing, though.
velvet adder
I don't know if this was mentioned before, but Taihous Skill uses the Terms "Suisei" which is called "Comet" on EN Servers.
Mind fixing that?
stone cargo
It would be also nice to have some kind of map where you could use more than 2 fleets since we have so many new ships and new saving slots. Yet I always use just the 2 because there is no map that would allow more. And there is plenty of ships that are awesome yet they are warming bench cuz they are not in main fleet. So having map where you could bring for example 4 fleets would be nice and I could use more ships at the same time and use the pre-saved fleets spots. It could be some kind of 1 per day just like the special escort map we have now or something like that
naive cobalt
It's not a bad idea, but just "Do something that uses 4 fleets" is not specific enough suggestion.
@velvet adder Yes, it's known issue
stone cargo
Lets say there would be 4 separate lines separated by rocks on tiles or something and each of the 4 fleets in one and the challenge would be to beat the 4 escorts in each line with each fleet and after they all cross finish line the boss node appears at the cojoined area at the end of those and you would use one of those fleets to finish it. Or just normal map where appear twice as many escorts and is needed to clear much more escorts than usualy for boss node to appear. Or make it one long line 1 tile wide so with unskipable escorts that you need to push through till the end where boss node would be. Should I draw it or is it enough of general idea?
naive cobalt
No, I meant more like
If you suggesting it to be a new daily mission
What would it be
stone cargo
I meant it like something similar as now is the fleet escort challenge where you once a day protect the cargo fleet from mines and sirens. That you do it omce a day and can stand separately. But it can be daily mission once a day or once a week like submarine ones or something
formal oyster
Why not reuse the defense system that we got for Ashen Simulacrum. Make it into a kind of S0S mission where instead of usual sub warfare, you have this defense battle, with higher levels having more forts and mobs spawned, maybe even more bases to protect and thus would allow more fleets to sortie.
Would be costly though 
stone cargo
That might be also possible. I dont really much care about the way how to make it real I just wanted to make some big epic battle where you can use more ships at the same time
Well yes it would be costy at any rate the only possible way how to make it not costy would be make it cost no oil but it would have to not give exp and give some very limited random resource
formal oyster
Make a kind of world boss as well could be nice, would add more interaction between players, as well as another source of rewards and top damage ladder flex.
stone cargo
If it costed no oil it would be really just for fun like challenge mode. Basically but that would mean the rewards would have to be something cosmetic that doesnt matter or something
Or if it was weekly challenge once or twice a week like submarine dailies it wouldnt matter that much it takes twice as much oil per full clear than normal map. In the end it doesnt really matter if you go one big map once or two half ones
Obviously it would have to be kinda optional or high lvl commander only cuz not everyone could affort making 4 fully equipped fleets that each can kill 100+ enemies

A little change with the "auto-submarine" function have it always ON when activated 1st time. Cause i've noticed when you finish a map and re-enter, it always turns back to OFF

Would it be possible in the future to get HMS Dreadnought as a ship? She would be SSR or Elite rank with stats similar to Mikasa if not just a hair better due to being built about 5 years later. Her skill would be to give an exp bonus (start out at 5% and go to 10-15% at max skill level) to BBs/BCs/BBVs/BMs. Maybe add in a barrage skill like Amagi if she is SSR instead of elite.

I feel like it should be impossible that more "Awakening Tactical Research" commissions turn up than you have ships to complete them with. Currently I have 2 ships that are eligible to do the commission, while I have 4 commissions waiting in my list.
There's no such trello card, and I feel like it's an oversight that it forces fleets to not be occupied due to ship restrictions.

Should we have the mechanics call "Support Fire"? I mean, when two fleets standing next together, there should be an option to call for support, either artillery from battleships/battlecruisers/monitors or aviation from fleet carriers/light carriers. There are restrictions like this:
-
The support fleet can only be called if they still have some ammo left.
-
Only backline ships (BB/BC/BM/CV/CVL) can answer the call.
-
Cost oil equal to the called ships' oil consumption.
-
Can be called only one per sortie.
-
No skills will be activated, which means only normal barrage and air raid are activated. However, carriers can send their fighters to intercept enemy bombers if called.
With the recent addition to fleet buffs like Meowficers, tech bonus, maybe some quality of life can help a bit?

Could there be a way to know which slot is the staff or command cat slot in the fleet menu when meowfficers are equipped ?
naive cobalt
It says so if they're not equipped and it shouldn't be that difficult to remember or guess that command cat is first one and staff is second 
formal oyster
No it's not that difficult, but it just adds more clarity and makes it easier ( at least when you're not that familiar with which slot is what yet ) to organize by looking at the skills that benefits from these slots from the same menu. And it shouldn't be too hard to do
Also maybe add the level of the meowfficer to the fleet menu as well. Could help when leveling them.

I'm thinking more
it should say so on the screen when you changing them
what slot that is
tho either works I guess

@dull cairn i want a port to pc, not to emulate, emulation is more stressful on a cpu as well as consumes more RAM as it has to emulate code not specified for the system

I hope they include in the patchnotes of certain translation fixes or edits (specify what ship) for example saratoga's line is new (iirc) it was different back then
so that I or other people can keep account of what's new in some ship girl lines
naive cobalt
almost certainly not, listing every single change is too long, pointless and wastes space and everyone's time
that's why most patchnotes bundle it all into "various translation issues and bug fixes"

I don’t know where else to post this: I emailed you and have tried Instagram and Twitter to get my problem fixed but no matter ( it’s technically my brothers problem ). My bro didn’t receive I ring in his mail, even though he’d been playing before the anniversary event started and he’s kinda begged me to see if I can get the issue fixed because he wants to oath laffey.

When changing fleet formations and for example there is Hood in Fleet1, and Illustrious in Fleet2, you then switch out Hood with Illustrious, Hood doesn't just become deselected, they switch slots in the fleet.
It would be great if we got the same mechanic for Equipment swaps, so that the equipment you "swipe" from another ship's loadout gets swapped, instead of the original equipment just becoming unequipped.
Had to restart a few runs, because a day prior I swapped some equipment, but the next day forgot to equip another ship again, effectively sending it out "naked".

I doubt I could get compensated for the time I couldn't log-in to my account but could it be the fact I had it recovered be why I didn't get the Oath Ring ?

Have there been proposals to reduce the Dock screen's required clicks to brows ships (at the off chance that there wasn't).
naive cobalt
uh
gotta be way more specific than that
proud prism
Currently it takes 1 click to get to the dock, then a second one to get a ship's details up, every other ship requires another 2 clicks, for switching back to the dock, and then selecting a ship.
The Meowficcers screen has done away with that by every clicked meowficcer displaying it's details on the same screen.
naive cobalt
ships have way more details and info than that
also you can just slide to switch between ships
proud prism
slide?
naive cobalt
ye
proud prism
oh shit, i didnt know that.
naive cobalt
just slide the ship's image left or right
formal oyster
That only saves time if you want to go to the next or previous ship though
naive cobalt
I mean
yes
proud prism
that still only makes it able to switch horizontally instead of universally.
naive cobalt
it's not really possible to do it the way you suggesting due to ships having more info and tabs to display
and meowficers still require you to switch to and fro when enhancing and upgrading them
which is imo is even worse and more jank than dock
proud prism
it's still way more convenient and it reduced loading times and clicks
proud prism
I believe I've seen a proposal about a screen that lets you easily switch equipment between ships, though, but that proposal was narrow in application, since it only concerned quick access to equipments.
naive cobalt
proud prism
Much obliged.

Since the last update, my game started freezing pretty often. Everytime when i go to the dock it freezes. It's starting to get annoying, i have to reboot the whole game. Sometimes it does it again even after restarting. pls halp
gloomy mauve
how about adding in an alternative method to switch gears.
You get to a Storage view where you can see all things that your ship could possibly equip, with tabs that you can switch around between all available equipemnt types for that ship, so dd guns and torps and aa gun and auxiliary for destroyers for example. And you can select and unselect (like on dorm selection screen) multiple main guns, aux guns, planes, aa guns, and aux gear and hit apply.
That way you don't need to select gun->switch->select->confirm for every equip slot of your ship and for every ship of your fleet.
That would tremendously decrease the time it takes to equip or edit already equipped ships.
I hope I was able to explain it well enough to understand.

- There's no set answer. A pattern some events have taken in JP is to run once, then rerun with added content, and then take the event ships, put them in
limitedpermanent pools, and make it so you can rerun the event maps, but they don't really have the event itself again, per se. But there's also nothing set in stone saying things have to follow that. - Most anything that isn't related directly to a collaboration can show up again, either as part of a rerun or just "Here are these skins again for a week or two"

Hey there, precious dev team, first thank you for this game, despite me not being into "shoot "em up" genre, not to mention almost hating mobile platforms for gaming, u still somehow miraculously made it happen, that i decided to give it a shot, and boy i was not prepared for mobile game making me feeling so excited. To the point of counting hours when the updates come out. For that, i thank you.
This may have been said earlier or in different channels, maybe even by a lot of people. But since its impossible to keep track on such things im still gonna say it and hopefully there will be enough of those who agree, so our voices can be heard: the idea about poll was nice, it lets you know what ships are loved most and which ones need maybe some work to get their share of attention, it let us get heated up about "my Shipfu is one true Queen, bow before her majestic grace (khu-khu Eugen khu-khu) or face consequenses >:3 One could even call this poll a way of communication. But in my opinion there is just one flaw, some may call this minor, irrelevant or not a flaw at all. But still i sincerely believe that letting results be seen online before this vote would be over was a major mistake. People are easily influenced, i hope everyone will agree with that. So when some1 who genuinely loves Radford, or Arethusa or whatever else ship sees that their beloved ship is sitting on 200+ place. It will be quite unlikely that theyre still going to vote for their beloved Galatea. While others may feel even elated on the fact. that they are sole supporters/"guardians" of given ship, i still believe most will feel sad about it. But its a given that in a contest with almost 300 participants some will inevitable lose and its okay. But the thing is: those who would otherwise vote for their beloved Clevelad will most likely vote for the leading ship, or at least a ship in top 20/10 that at least have some chances to win.
Because thats how masses work, nothing one can do about it. Now, for the record, my favourite Ship is Eugen, followed by Amagi. Both made it to top 10, of qualifiers, and im extremely glad there are so many of us, degenerates, who share my taste. But i still feel obligated to tell you, precious development team, that maybe you should reconsider about results being showed online. I dont know if something can still be done about upcoming groups and finals of this contest, but even if not, im sure this wont be the last contest of such type so at least ill be glad if you come up with another way to present future contests and let people feel true excitement of not knowing which contestant gonna end up where and of enjoying the upcoming feeling of genuine surprise about results

voting for winners won't achieve anything, they already in the lead, while voting for those behind may actually change results
I don't buy "it's in people nature to vote for winners" cos it's not true. People love comeback stories more than some one char dominating everyone.
If you look at cn server, that's kinda what happened - people massively voted yat sen from fucking nowhere to top-10 last I checked
but it was brought up and noted before, merely sharing my thoughts
dreamy loom
EN fanbase are much more scattered however, making a concetrated effort to hoist someone that's not popular much harder.
thus, a lot of scattered player would probably just vote for whatever boat they see topping the chart.
hazy marten
If i may add to this voting topic, i think being able to see the result in almost real time can cause this kind of scenario:
Let's say player A likes shipgirl 1 and hate shipgirl 2. If player A can see that shipgirl 1 has very low chance to win but shipgirl 2 is leading then player A will vote for girls ranked slightly below shipgirl 2 to drop shipgirl 2's rank even though player A doesn't particularly like the girls. It might be not a big deal if only 1 person doing this but if multiple people doing the same then the final result might not truly based by popularity anymore.
It might sounds far fetched and all but in my opinion this might happen. Sorry for long wall of text, keep up the good work
naive cobalt
It's a valid point, but rn the only position that matters is 150, since we're in prelims
Not sure how other stages would behave in that sense
static needle
Gist of that wall of text: showing results early introduces voter bias. if the ship you like is on the 200th, might as well vote a 3rd option that is near the top places.
naive cobalt
Yes I read this wall of text and I don't understand what you win by voting for someone in the lead. Not like it's a faction and if you vote for them - you gain benefits
ornate basin
we're meant to read wall of texts
naive cobalt
If the ship you like is on the 200th place - actually voting for them might bring them to top-150, the only thing that matters
being 2nd or 10th or 20th is irrelevant
the only point of prelims is to determine top-150 and sub-150
Just because
- some don't understand how system works despite it being explained
and - some just apparently incapable of acting rationally
doesn't mean it's all because "game shows positions"
it's because people can't read and people are dumb (no offence)
static needle
i only gave gist 👀 , We all know that en cant re--- i guess mods here,can . But after prelims finals come and showing results early will show voter bias indeed
naive cobalt
It's a valid point, but rn the only position that matters is 150, since we're in prelims
it is valid when positions matter, not arguing there
slate monolith
Well at least the Cranes are within the 150 cutoff

When selecting ships on the formation screen, it would be great if you could click on a free slot and then keep selecting ships, similar to how dorm slots and other activities work, so you don't need to individually click a free space, move to dock, select ship, move back, click another slot, and repeat - cutting clicking and loading times.

When a ship's stats are at max, trying to enhance them further gives the feedback of "not enough items", implying they can further be upgraded, just that you don't possess enough resources. Which might be confusing for newcomers.

This will most likely be a usual farm event where you get more points the higher chapter you farm, and so the phase I is to give time for people that didn't level those specific ships to help them do so for helping them in phase II

Has anyone suggested to update Saint Louis XP requirements to include Iris Libre/Vichnya Dominion cruisers?
shell bramble
They have and they won't. It was done because I think Iris hadn't even come out in other clients yet, and even now most French ships are tied to events. It's take a decent chunk of time to either change her specifically, or replace her requirements with French specifically, and the devs just wouldn't bother as there's almost no real benefit to it.
rare jay
PR ships are always tied to one specific faction (that's their shtick) and that almost certainly won't be changed. So then the idea becomes to change her requirements specifically to IL/VD and that won't work due to the fact that there are so few of them to begin w/ and they're all pretty much tied behind events and event builds so MANY players would be locked out of getting her.

@shell bramble @rare jay I'm not saying to replace Saint Louis' research XP requirements completely to IL/VD. Just add IL/VD cruisers to the current requirement. There's only a handful of them anyway. The only cruisers aside from Saint Louis from those factions are Elise and Jean. The latter not even released yet.

Is the right part of the screen used for anything? Otherwise it looks like a lot of wasted space where the information could better be displayed from clicking the 3 riders to the left, instead of awkwardly cramming them underneath each other, that would allow players to better observe all relevant timers.
gloomy mauve
It's used to close that menu
proud prism
You don't need that much space to close the tab though, and there are other screens that are larger that you can close no problem.
gloomy mauve
I'd guess this is for easy usage because this is an often used feature. The big space allows you to click anywhere to close it, instead of clicking the X.

In the dorm the screens popping up take up almost all the screen. So this doesn't seem like a limiting factor.

Like when she says "yo" her mouth keeps closed in this really awkward shape

When you send a message and the error "Do not spam" comes up, keep the message in the box, so we can send again in a few secs, and not need to type everything again.
Also, please increase the message length. (Which was probably already suggested )

Are there differences in style between the clients or can you somehow change the UI's style manually? I'm a bit confused as I see screen shots of the UI looking very different than the one from the EN client, but then I find screenshots with the other UI set to English language (I don't find an option to change language).
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/w/images/b/ba/4-1.png
Either way, the UI in the screenshot looks so much more stylized and has a nice contrast, while the EN client's style seems monotone and minimalist.
Was the UI for other clients eventually updated, and will the EN client be brought on par with the other style, or is this a conscious design decision?
naive cobalt
It's old UI
proud prism
Are there plans to remedy this?
ornate basin
loool
proud prism
Oh, you mean the screenshot is old?
proud prism
Oh man, that's awful. 
tardy arch
lol tbh the old ui was really bad. the new one is much more streamlined and easier to look at.
proud prism
I guess that's just me then.
naive cobalt
it might look more "colorful", but it was clunky to use
ornate basin
it looked really weird imo
new UI is more modern of course
which is very attractive to people nowadays
proud prism
I hate modern minimalistic styles, so uninspired and boring.
naive cobalt
I guess that's just me then.
there're people who think same way, but no plans to bring old ui back afaik
proud prism
Obviously not then.
formal oyster
Well I personally really preferred the old one, would be nice if it would come back but...
proud prism
Having the option to switch would be great, but there is no incentive to do so.
Unless in exchange for money. Maybe that's an idea?
UI skins?
naive cobalt
selling old Ui back doesn't really strike like a keen business decision 
formal oyster
When you see how much they charge for a ship skin, I don't want to put a full month of pay into a UI skin
naive cobalt
also no, it would require EVERY update to be built around several different UI layouts and makes making sure everything works and not broken even worse than it is
proud prism
Sure.
naive cobalt
considering how often everything IS broken

Just a minor art issue - the antifouling paint colour on Littorio's rigging (circled) may be wrong. Typically, Italian ships use green antifouling instead of red - it's one of their distinctive features.
lucid compass
So I checked the trello and didn't see anything about this but can we get gearsets saved to the server instead of the device? I play on both an emulator and my phone (depending on my location) and it gets irritating when I go to put a gear set on one of my ships and find that it doesn't exist on the device I'm playing on.
shell bramble
It's definitely been suggested before and written up. Let me see if I can find it real quick
lucid compass
Ah. I CTRL + F and I put in "gear" so that's why I missed it....
shell bramble
Yeah, it's an adventure at times to search through Trello. FYI for future: Trello has its own search feature, if you hit just 'F' on the keyboard (assuming you're on desktop) which I've found to be more reliable than full-page searching

Suggestion: Add an option to toggle on/off the background details WITHIN a skin (e.g. the signs within Enterprise and Cleveland's anniversary skin and the poster behind Kirishima's latest skin), as the added detail blurs the focus of the skin, making it awkward to observe in-game.
rare jay
The thing is though, I'm almost certain those are part of the skin in the first place. The artist drew them w/ it
hearty veldt
I know it's intended, but I would prefer the background to be removed if possible.
rare jay
Oh, I meant more to imply how it might be difficult to change them as they're part of it initially when the devs get it, but I personally can't say for certain how it works. I'll get the suggestion down no worries, but just wanted to state that concern about it
hearty veldt
Oh okay, thanks!

Sort of wish there was a way to reset Hard Mode allowances besides the daily reset. Or be given more. I'm new to the game, but yet I'll be missing out on Avrora due to being a few days behind.
void schooner
How many days behind? Because the event was extended to the 11th. So you still have 5 days to work with.
rich bridge
just asking why is sandy still a SR stare lvl when shes a UR now weres her 7th stare?
naive cobalt
because URs dont get an extra star

Make multiple fleets be able to have the same ship, and (obviously) dont allow 2 fleets to be used for one map if they have the same ship.
A lot of people use a few ships multiple times but just re-arrange for each situation. Having each arrangement for each situation set up (Mob farming fleet - Daily fleets - Boss Fleet - Leveling fleet)
This way the player has an arsenal of fleets they can use on demand rather than having to change up fleets every time they want to switch tasks.
I dont know of AL records the data but i doubt most people use the rest of their fleets outside of the first 2 that often, and this change wont interfere with the people that do somehow make use of the 6 fleet slots
naive cobalt
hard plaza
I use the empty fleets to easily start off a completely new formation
placid fox
@hard plaza and this change wouldn't affect what you do at all too
night wadi
Great suggestion
hard plaza
What change are you talking about
placid fox
please do, i think the players would love it, I sure would
hard plaza
nvm
hard plaza
Yes that would be great
placid fox

night wadi
I would like to throw in my suggestion, not sure if it’s been listed yet
How about a fleet deck. Basically like a 5 slot deck where we can save 5 different formations and then we can select which ones we want to use. Kind of like a Save/Load option
hard plaza
I have a super duper awesome idea though, what about not making all the most OP ships in the game like Nagato and Yukikaze event specific and make them drop from chapters as SRs?
Nice idea isnt it
naive cobalt
nah, kinda defeats the point
also event specific ships are added to the permanent construction pool after a while
hard plaza
So newer players will always have to be weaker than older players? Why bother doing the exercises then
night wadi
Farmable top tiers? Through crafting if anything
placid fox
With this i think a lot of players would make use of even more fleet slots, maybe unlockable for gems?
night wadi
Yes
@placid fox yes! That way we could preset several formations and select them as need be and adjust them over time
naive cobalt

How is that different from just... multiple fleets?
hard plaza
Like i understand that you do event ships, its fun to gather them all, but unarguably OP ships like Nagato, Yukikaze and Amagi being event limited is really a bad experience as a returning player who didnt play for 6 months after December last year
naive cobalt
also event specific ships are added to the permanent construction pool after a while
hard plaza
So i have to wait a whole year?
naive cobalt
no idea where you got the "whole year" part but ye, until they're added to the permanent pool
hard plaza
Well, they add the ships to the permenant pool usually after a year and nagaoto got released in this May
night wadi
Bc currently I have to go select 12 ships every time I want to do a scenario, and then if I want to do a commission then I need to take all of these ships out, replace them with placeholders, and select the ships I want in the commission. And once those are over I have to reverse the process
If I had 5 preset “teams” I could just select team 3 and all of those ships would be dropped into the formation. Does that make sense?
night wadi
I see, thank you! Glad to know it was suggested...just something I’ve seen in other games and it saves some headache at times.
Thank you Restart 🙂
hard plaza
This is probably suggested but can you add previews to L2D skins on the skin shop?
ornate basin
so many suggestions in like 10 minutes 
night wadi
I guess everyone is playing before bed on the east coast like me XD
hard plaza
Lets see, what else bothers me in this game, hmm...
ornate basin
im not sure how thats related to suggestions but a lot of people are 
hard plaza
Ah, of course, please, please and please, don't show the annoying notification that pops up whenever I open the game from start and click Auto.
hard plaza
where do i check the already suggested stuff
ornate basin
ah s
ornate basin
restart why do we have 2
theres really no difference between Notified and Dont Show Again right
naive cobalt
do we have 2?
ornate basin
ornate basin
well ok 
hard plaza
how do you cancel the bug report you started with the bot?
placid fox
w8 why is there only one change in the approved slot D:
ornate basin
you cant cancel them atm
placid fox
has only one recommendation went through
ornate basin
you will have to wait for them to time out
celest abyss
I don't really see how to search Trello on mobile so
Is there a suggestion to let us scrap PR equipment? Unlike the ships you can get them back, and it'd be nice not having say a gold AA you crafted transitionally take up space
rare jay
You can use the command !abort if you're still in the process of submitting
ornate basin
no staff just didnt update it
placid fox
wwwwww
ornate basin
didnt you go through it toaster
rare jay
For the most part. There'll still be some that're missed, but a good chunk of them have been archived if they're implemented
ornate basin
figured they were archived

@naive cobalt
Then tell me where on disassemble screen my triple 381 is?
Because I can't find it on disassemble screen
naive cobalt
special equipment needs confirmation, so it's not available on MASS disassemble screen
you can still do it from depot
celest abyss
I see. Guess I didn't see that 
I didn't realise there was an individual disassemble, my bad on that
naive cobalt
hard plaza
This is probably because of technical limitations and I couldnt see it on trello but can you extend the battle scene to the whole screen on wide screen phones?
naive cobalt
ye, the point of UI update was to make the game adapt to non-standard resolutions, so if it's still the same in battles - it's impossible to change
or devs would've done it
hard plaza
I see
Okay, this one really bothers me and its not exactly a bug so i will post it here: Hood's quotes sound really quiet and so its barely hearable on speakers. Same goes for a lot of special quotes that comes with skins on different kinds of ships. Can you turn the volume up for these quotes?
examples to other skins are: Ajax's Party Queen skin, Saratoga's Superstar of the Blue Seas skin, Unicorn's Little Star Songstress skin and many more
hard plaza
ok thanks a ton
ornate basin
when it was reported as a bug it seems it was archived
or feedback, I cant really tell what it was lol
hard plaza
this is kinda in the middle as the inbalance between voice volumes was probably intentional to hide bad voice recordings and such
ornate basin
I just think it is that hood is soft spoken
but regardless, its been brought up before and we have taken it as feedback
naive cobalt
I remember bringing Hood lines before I joined the team
I also remember arguing that no, the lines ARE actually quiet and people are deaf if they think it's "around the same level as anyone else, maybe a bit soft-spoken"
hard plaza
Im pretty sure this bothers a lot of people, thats why im surprised it wasnt on trello
