Yet here we go again

stone cargo
minor robin
They intentionally shut down the server in this case
devout wyvern
knowing what we like about shipgirls , yes fetishes , but ya need to improve the sever too , I don't want to see both users and devs having to be frustrated bout fixing the game every time we update something new
mild goblet
Crying in here just because you guys are impatient doesn't solve anything.
stone cargo
Doesnt matter the game was unplayable whole day and then they realised something is wrong and made it unplayable for longer
lilac anvil
if gacha ships that lost due to errors sent back via in-game mail, could player select one by one, which to keep, while the rest are to be retired, or... player must accept them all, thus when the dock slot isn't enough, the ships can't be taken?
minor robin
We don't even know how they plan to handle that
devout wyvern
I'm sad that all the money we contributed to the game couldn't make the severs better
lilac anvil
We don't even know how they plan to handle that
@minor robin is this the answer to my question, sorry idk
devout wyvern
apologems doesn't always work out the problems
minor robin
Priority now is to fix the issue at hand
lilac anvil
i meant... this happened on latest USS Major, i wonder how it works, it's not a new thing, but i haven't experienced it before
minor robin
Once we do have info about how to plan this well, we'll see how it goes from there
lilac path
This "case" should not take place if everything was tested propedly in the firs place. And what can players do to omprove gameplay : 1. Complain - but we are not heard [Discord prevent direct dialoge with developer - it is main function of Discord ] open forum does, 2, Stop buing items for real money $$$ in the shop - direct impact for developers - thye have to do something or close bussines.
stone cargo
This really gotta change this attitude is awful. 50% of maints is the same whole day is game unavailable the devs test it like once on their pc on emulator and then they realise somethings isnt working when it goes live. I say it sucks you say its ok and then next month its the same thing all over again. Can they ever learn please for the good of us all and their own good as well? 8hr should be enough time to implement something and at least open it.
lilac anvil
and that's how rollback problem solved (sending lost ships to in-game mail) that time (during Medley something event)
stone cargo
Or dont make maints that often if they cant make them correctly within a week
boreal marsh
one side wants more events, the other side wants less maint
you have to understand that there will never be a compromise for both 
lilac anvil
more events, more MT, right?
stone cargo
I want quality over quantity
lilac path
Apologems, vending items and ships in mail is not problem solving - it is justyfy to do nothing with the problem. To solve problem is to never ocure in the firs place. So tests in close enviroment 1 patch earlier than currently applying one is a sollution. And probaly project manager has to be replaced by someone more dependeble too.
boreal marsh
judging from what i see, alot of others prefer the other way as well
now that the game is up again, can we stop with the malding in here? there isnt even a rollback
gritty belfry
srsly devs? alot of ppl put in tons of cubes just to get DoY and couldnt because of your mistake, and all u compensate is 20 cubes? I lost 200 cubes total included 80 extra cubes after getting all other ships, this compensation is nothing
velvet adder
they said compensation incoming, I suppose they're going to properly compensate everyone based on what they spent
but that'll take some time to inspect the logs
scenic flower
It's time to go sleep for me. I haven't cleared exercises, I can't feed my girls, and tomorow I have to work instead of playing AL. That's why I hate this fckn maintenances, and especially hate the prolonged ones.
minor robin
Server is up already though
stone cargo
Yeah thats the problem. For EU ppl maint is from morning to evening and if they prolong it then rip. And maybe they could announce its back
boreal marsh
you act as though there aren't people from other timezones as well, just be patient?
the update is something that is added permanently, idk why you're mad bout this
lilac anvil
I hate to repeat myself but maybe dont do maint every week since for eu ppl its from like 8am till 4pm and then it gets usually fucked up so the hotfixes last into evening and then there is no time to do dailies or play new maps or anything
@stone cargo isn't this just about timezone difference? i meant, if it's midnight on your local time, won't be a big problem? but that's will be problem for other region, it's endless
lilac path
no we should write as mamy maeeages as we can, because that way they don try to gag people with compensation insteed od relly doing something to prevent this cycle of disaster recovery
gritty belfry
idk if that was the actual compensate or not, but my goal was DoY, idc for sirius or victorious, and 200 cubes lost no sight of her, 120 cubes got everyone else, spent 80 extra still no her..... so im really hurt, idk how deep others went for her
mild goblet
@lilac path we get it, stop spamming the same shit over and over again. You aren't changing anything with it.
sharp bobcat
Me too bro
If they give just 1 DOY as compensation
I will take that as proper apologize
lilac anvil
idk if that was the actual compensate or not, but my goal was DoY, idc for sirius or victorious, and 200 cubes lost no sight of her, 120 cubes got everyone else, spent 80 extra still no her..... so im really hurt, idk how deep others went for her
@gritty belfry they did sent lost ships via in-game mail when similiar issue happend during the latest uss major
velvet adder
maybe they could announce it's back
idk what this is to you but it looks to me like it's exactly that
stone cargo
I just want devs to finally learn. And find out that when they implement something it would be nice to test it but someone would have to give them that message from here
And they didnt ping us that its back
scenic flower
fck, another update, 20MB. It will take another 20minutes for me.
velvet adder
you can set game news to ping you every message if you want with discord
a lot of people actually dislike at everyone pings
gritty belfry
idc really if all other ships i rolled today was lost, i just want my 200 cubes back so I can restart the rolls, 200 cubes plus the gold spent
lilac anvil
yes, there's a 'follow' option
stone cargo
Some staff adds at everyone this one didnt
gritty stone
Wish the devs could do some testing each patch. Today they purely just copy pasted the WC rate ups from the initial event, didn't even bother to add DoY..
Not just today but it feels like every patch these days has some sort of problem that's always overlooked
lilac path
So what srv it up - probably it will be under "emergency maintenance" again because someone dont check script and not tested it correctly.
gritty belfry
Do I need to email staff to tell them my personal experience so see what they can do for me? i just want my 200 cubes and corresponding gold spent back so i can retry building DoY
lilac anvil
i might repeating a question, but where's the WC rateup? Tartu showing up instead
minor robin
special build
flat wadi
@gritty belfry thats rng
minor robin
There will be more details regarding the compensation later. Please wait for them, at this moment we are unable to reveal them.
lilac anvil
why Tartu isn't part of light build instead? she's a DD right?
gritty stone
@flat wadi No that's not, DoY wasn't in the pool before and a lot of people spent way more than 20 cubes worth trying for DoY before
It's extremely unfair
minor robin
There will be more details regarding the compensation later. Please wait for them, at this moment we are unable to reveal them.
gritty belfry
Ty Ender, i will wait and see, hope they are fair as alway try to be
lilac anvil
i remember dido etc was on light build despite being an event limited 
jade tusk
Thanks mod, did spend more than the compensation so I will wait and see lol
lilac anvil
why is that?
minor robin
In this case Tartu was separate
I have no idea why
lilac anvil
that's strange tbh
minor robin
That's something only the staff for JPCN can answer
velvet adder
@flat wadi it's not RNG
she literally wasn't obtainable before the emergency patch
lilac anvil
but glad it's on special pool, thanks for answer btw
velvet adder
Not something major but just something I thought... maybe a smooth fade transition between screens to match the new audio fade effects?
lean vector
Will there be additional compensation? A lot of people spent $$$ on gems to roll and spent hundreds of cubes trying to get duke. Myself included. I don't think free 10 rolls makes up for it.
minor robin
There will be more information regarding it later
boreal obsidian
Is Grenville in the build right now? She's not in the shop either.
minor robin
She's not in the build in any server, EN, JP or CN
boreal obsidian
Oh. I thought she was part of the event.
minor robin
She technically is, yet for some reason is MIA in all servers
Not sure why either honestly
hoary horizon
why a very new ship to the server like swiftsure didn't even get any rate up.
As a new ship you should give her rate up at least for a week or 3 day.
Unless she's already debuting b4 like yukikaze and other lunar ship
minor robin
Swiftsure is like Montpelier
Added to light build with no rate up cos she's not in an event
boreal obsidian
As long as Grenville is available at some point I don't mind waiting. I just worry about the people who don't know that are trying to pull her right now.
naive cobalt
she was not promised nor is she in any announcement to be available
lilac anvil
glasgow got rateup iirc, she's not in any event too
hoary horizon
Yeah, giving a rate up to a new ship whether its event or not is already like tradition
lilac anvil
she's not, that's newcastle
naive cobalt
nah, she was randomly added with rate up, you right
ripe trail
it's pretty arbitrary whether to give new ships a rate up, there's always exceptions.
minor robin
if anything glasgow was the weird one
lilac anvil
and what's that 'exception' 
foggy dawn
Just do your daily light pool roll.
Swiftsure will come eventually.
or wait for wishing well.
lilac anvil
still, w/o rateup it's way harder, moreover i believe that some ship despite has same rarity, has bigger chance tbh
keen patrol
Considering the massive amount of ships added to the pools, could we get a wishing well soon? 
It took me over 450 pulls for Yat Sen alone. And now Swiftsure is in
lilac anvil
as more ships permanently added, it's getting harder to get a specific ship, good thing that some ships got removed because it could be obtained from either map drop or medal exchange
foggy dawn
Don't take my words for it.
But AL CN anni is coming by end of the month.
And there might be a wishing well.
lilac anvil
wasn't the last anni the AL JP one?
minor robin
last wishing well was in november
velvet adder
hello, i would like my cubes spent back; i spent 26 before the maintenance thinking duke of york was there
how can i do?
ripe trail
There will be information regarding further compensation later, please be patient.
velvet adder
will it be before the rateup goes away?
lilac anvil
lost ship was sent to in-game mail when similiar issue happened on uss event, similiar thing to be expected as now
velvet adder
i don't want lost ship; i want the cubes i spent thinking duke of york was there back
lilac anvil
then that's your fault i think?
minor robin
I mean you were already given 20 back so like...
velvet adder
how is it my fault? the notice said she'd be back?
minor robin
Twitter
anyways
in your case you were already given most of your cubes back
you can try your luck but don't expect anything
lilac anvil
oh you meant before the hot-fix? i thought it was before the 8h MT
velvet adder
b4 the hotfix, yeah
lilac anvil
my bad, i'm the wrong one, sorry for that
real mountain
Just wanna say thx for the W10 HM and the cog chips from that, helps a lot. OTOH fuck no rate up pool additions 😄 I was lucky but the concept sucks. Dats all.
velvet adder
i was farming quick finishers when the game kicked me out
foggy dawn
You guys need to wait a bit. Devs are going through the build logs to return the correct amount. So just be patient.
ripe trail
Aye, though the amount of times we've needed to say that is rather... 
raven quail
Could gems be possibly returned as well? I know I'm beating a dead horse but all I've been seeing are cubes
sly shore
can we get a way to see what ships you havent gotten from each build pool without having to check wiki and without having to check each individual ship you dont have in the archives?
cursive horizon
The names and descriptions for Hard Mode Chapter 10 are for chapter 11.
minor robin
#bug-reports please...
gloomy spruce
I hope my cubes I rolled before hot-fix can be given to me. I don't know my old cubes I rolled can't be back
foggy dawn
The cubes/gold you spent before hot-fix will be returned to you.
foggy dawn
Devs are not compensating the resources spend before hot-fix?
minor robin
they're not compensating each individual's used resource
foggy dawn
or does cubes spent has to be more than 100?
minor robin
that's just a generic reward (the 20 cubes in mail so far)
regarding the tweet intern posted
is a different thing
gloomy spruce
I spent equally 100 cubes
ripe trail
Don't set any expectations for the exact nature of the compensation before an official statement is released.
hollow shadow
How about an easy compensation way? Reroll all accounts to before maintenance ended .... While adding the rate up ships to every port? (I can still dream, right?) So that no all the thousands of account shave to be looked through while it's easy compensation and would make everyone happy, I bet
minor robin
That doesn't necessarily fix things either hope you're aware
anyways they're not gonna do that
hollow shadow
Yes, it's very unlikely... But would fix things pretty easy for everyone
naive cobalt
Especially for people who rolled what they wanted
hollow shadow
Would have just been the easiest method in my opinion to get the playerbase happy again while getting stuff working again.....
velvet adder
i wouldn't have been happy if they took away my zuikaku, no
lilac anvil
reroll? no thanks, i don't want to lose my WC ships
lean vector
just send all the rate up ships in the mail everyone will be happy
hollow shadow
Would be reroll but with all WC ships as compensation
flat wadi
they arent gonna do that as ender said
hollow shadow
Just wanted to get this option here so the easiest solution (in my opinion) should be considered too. Just because people used gems for cubes and coins to get DOY ...... So a reroll with the event ships as compensation would have been a pretty easy and fair option. Even if it's a hard option but I think it would have been a fair option
velvet adder
you keep repeating the same suggestion and ignoring people explaining to you how it would not be fair in some cases
hollow shadow
Please show me the explanation of why it wouldn't be fair.....
velvet adder

Getting tired of the ever expanding install size, the code never seems to get optimized. I just had to delete five apps off of my phone just to install the GPS update
ebon mulch
It's not about "code being optimized". Code represents a very small portion of the storage requirements. The vast majority of space is being used by images and models, just like every other modern video game. More content means more required storage space, unless you start removing old content entirely.
@jovial parcel
storm prairie
i really appreciate that when a shipgirl loses focus during talking the audio doesnt suddenly cut anymore, but fades away. its much more pleasant for the ears like this, gj devs 
lean vector
Skin rotation feature when you have more than 1 skin per ship. Could be automatic secretary skin rotation or skin rotation across the entire game.
ornate basin
its been suggested 
jovial parcel
Scratch what I said, it won't install, needs over 2Gb over and above the 4.4Gb it already consumes
@ebon mulch then I guess it's time to start removing unused content data
ebon mulch
@jovial parcel nothing is unused. That's the problem.
jovial parcel
bullshit, removing animations, removing audio files, opting for lower resolution images
The fucking game wants me to delete over 3 more Gb than I've already uninstalled today
naive cobalt
No offence, but demanding for game to remove animations and audio (which is already an opt-in to begin with) because you have old phone/can't buy memory card is a little bit selfish
jovial parcel
I don't think you understand, I've got a 32 Gb phone, buying a memory card isn't going to free up any space it's not a problem of too many photos or songs. I don't have any audio files on my phone. It's wants me to delete other apps
There is no option to go back and remove the already downloaded media content for AZL, once i;ve downloaded it (say months ago) I can't get rid of it
naive cobalt
"game" doesn't want you to delete anything, maybe that's google play being dumb. I had same issues with it demanding me to delete stuff while having 15 gbs free.
try downloading from 3rd party sources like qooapp
my game currently takes up 2.5 gbs
ornate basin
if your app is taking an abnormal amount of space, reinstalling will help cut down the space it takes
jovial parcel
my game currently takes up 5.87 Gb
naive cobalt
then it's on google play failing to delete old game files after updating the game
storm prairie
mine is only 3.5 gb so just try reinstalling through qooapp
naive cobalt
I had this issue with other games when it had several old obb files
ornate basin
some phones tend to have apps bloat up by not removing unnecessary files
naive cobalt
game itself isn't the one updating itself
it's done though stores like google play or app store
issues with the client updates are almost always on their end since game takes no part in the process essentially
it's just getting updated
stray carbon
for some reason google doesn't delete old obb files, it just adds the new one
jovial parcel
I'm unistalling and reinstalling, but gd this is garbage. This is the second time this year I've had to do this
jovial parcel
ok, well that managed to work so far. Should I update the in game media files also? The animations and voices?
stray carbon
you don't have to, only if you want it
cedar plover
I don't know if this is the right place to post it, but can we have more detailed changelogs (as well as maybe quick notes for hotfix patches)?
It always seems like things are left out, too vague, or mentioned afterwards (e.g. World 10 HM).
One of the things that I think that helps is having a brief and a detailed changelog. So, for example, on an app I use, the Play Store brief changelog says "Crash & Bug fixes", but in the dedicated changelog menu, it says what the bug was and who reported it. (This might improve the "EN can't read" issue, as you can't TL;DR something that isn't too long).
Side note: "System optimizations" is misused on EN's notes. For how it is used, it should be something like "Minor tweaks/bugfixes".
cedar plover
As for the brief changelogs, why not make it graphical like the little banners in the game?
bitter herald
have there been any info about compensation for those who burned cubes/ gems for DoY?
minor robin
https://twitter.com/InternKun/status/1260971955189997570
Besides this, no

ok tks u
cedar plover
Seriously, I know it's been posted before, but please bump the chat character limit to 140 or 160, the standard that worked for Twitter and SMS.
While you can get a lot of mileage out of 40 Chinese or Japanese characters thanks to hanzi/kanji, a lack of spaces, and 1 character per syllable, English can't really do much.
Here is the same sentence in Japanese, Chinese, and English:
これは、日本語と中国語の文がどちらも英語よりもはるかに短いことを示す例文です。
39 characters.
这是一个例句示例，显示日语和汉语句子都比英语短得多。
26 characters.
This is an example sentence that shows that Japanese and Chinese sentences are both much shorter than English.
110 characters.
Besides, if people already know how to evade the limit, might as well make it legal.
minor robin
Yeah that's actually not exactly easy to do though it's been suggested 
not to mention it's an EN only issue so not very high prio
strange kelp
I dont wanna be saying its eazy but some people manage to excess the limit by hacking glitching idk, it seems possible to excess the number of character.
cedar plover
I'm guessing that it is in the native client code, which would require yet another app store update.
minor robin
it would be yes...
cedar plover
oof
minor robin
it's a real pain for the translators as well
and then you have stuff like tosa and sirius
cedar plover
Considering how rarely the client is updated (and the bugs in the stuff that is supposedly native), I'm guessing that there's not a lot of (good 
) C# devs either.
sage oak
Oya? The game is written in C#? That's interesting..
Since this is the game-feedback, after update, I really like the smooth sound transition, and the little bit faster paced animation and fight scenes 
sharp bobcat
Anyone have some info regarding extra compensation with DoY bug
I just receive mail that said extra compensation with only 50 cubes, 30k gold and 25 quick finisher
Is this really the extra compensation?
Cause honestly its not even half of what i spend before hot fix even if i combine with 1st compensation
minor robin
The amount of compensation given varies from player to player depending on how much they spent
I don't know exactly how many is given, but it should be around half
they can't compensate close to or all the cubes since you still got ships and not lost them to the void entirely
obtuse breach
im guessing the compensation is being given out in waves, since i havent gotten anything
minor robin
mmhmm
sharp bobcat
In my case i only got less than 40% back
And honestly it doesnt feel fair to me
jade tusk
I spent 200+ cubes, 100k+ golds and got 40 cubes, and 24k coins as extra compensation.
Yes we still get the ships but THE MAIN POINT here for me, and for a lot of us is DoY. It surely doesnt feel fair at all.
I rolled again & thankfully got DoY after the fix, but what about those who spent, lost their resouces b/c of the bug and still dont get DoY....
I appreciate the compensation & the effort from dev team, but I wish there would be a better solution for this...
sage oak
Maybe it is a good idea for next time to wait until the system stabilzes after some time? But okay, that's coming from just a casual gamer.. sorry..
solemn citrus
As far as I’m aware (didn’t need to roll so didn’t try), she was available in the pool but not on rate up like she was supposed to be? So it was possible to roll but not likely
minor robin
she was not in the pool allegedly
jade tusk
Well I thought I could trust the devs (as in if there are bugs there will be fair compensation + this bug is quite bad imo I didnt expect that at all lol). Certainly will wait for a while next time.
But then again there was the hype, and cant really blame those who've been waiting for DoY to just pull right after maint.
minor robin
idk if she was or was not in the pool
solemn citrus
Ah. The post simply says “not on rate up” per #game-news
sage oak
Hmm, yeah the hype is real, but I've never experienced roll backs before (even though I sometime get kick out because of server issues in those times), probably because I rarely spend more than 20 cubes per day..
Anyway, often I think I see Kent or North Carolina far too often. Well, rate ups can be deceiving..
velvet adder
Has this been suggested before?
When the no dock space message pops up and you tap enhance it will automatically filter "enhancable" ships.
boreal marsh
there's already an enhanceable filter in Sort
empty oyster
Make it so we can craft t4 and t5 equipment boxes I would say 10Xt3 boxes to make 1Xt4 and 20Xt4 for 1Xt5 equipment box
granite bluff
tartu event is too difficult almost seems like a cash grab like they just barely made her obtainable for free from the highest difficulty only clear 60 times so endgame players wouldnt rage.
minor robin
@empty oyster it has been suggested
What do you mean by too difficult? @granite bluff
it's level 68-80
most new players can reach that level in 3 weeks assuming they play properly
and 60 clear is pretty standard for such events
stray carbon
Its ever better with two weeks time compared to the usual 1 week these events have
granite bluff
all I know is my lvl 75+ teams are dying
and I don't have time left to raise anyone else or to get much higher
they should have made some intermediate difficulty for this
hidden bear
I'm going to chalk it up to just giving Yostar/Manjuu a nice bonus for making such a nice game... (I wish I had read and understood the patch notes/build pool rate up more clearly before spending so much...)
But just curious, why was Grenville left out of the build pool?
sage oak
Try using different weapons or enhance them, changing weapons can make a huge difference in firepower and actually hitting the enemy
granite bluff
I've got most of my girls equipped with elite weapons +6 few +4 and5 some of the gold weapons here and there and rare when I have nothing better
I could get a few of them a bit further but I only have about 80 of each upgrade mat left until it ask for purples
don't think I have many of those next level mats
sage oak
Hmm, for the recent infamous "60 clear run", what I did was to select (in your case) "the strongest" among the ships/girls and gave them the best (not strongest) weapon suited for the ships themselves. I like to use weapons with Normal or Explosive Ammo, since they should always hit, regardless if destroyer or battleships. If your level is too low, you might never hit with AP amo at destroyers.
Furthermore, I always tried to avoid the 3 triangle ships, since they are too strong.
ripe trail
If you two could possibly move to a different channel for further discussion, that be great. This isn't really the place for in-depth gameplay guides.
sage oak
Sorry
As for why I'm actually here, it would be nice to be able to set the order and placements of the ships also in hard mode, since I always have to reorder the ships after entering the hard mode maps.
boreal marsh
you can do that before entering the map, you just have to place the ship you want to be at the front first
and it will move to the 1st slot
prisma onyx
It would also be nice if we can have a choice to change the battle music to be a specific music that we like to hear during battle.
gritty belfry
just voicing my concern regarding the extra compensation that I got just now, i spent 200 cubes and got back 40 cubes only, so 1/5 of what I spent, its very low, making me feel like "beggars cant be choosers", if it were half then i feel fair about it. if you want to take note of this along with other similar concerns and so this does know go away unknowingly, devs need to know how we feel. I lost faith in them now.
obtuse breach
bruh, i still havent gotten my compensation, i wonder how bad this will be
gritty belfry
u will onyl get 1/5 back, just like my 40/200 cubes, devs treating u like " be lucky we even give u 1/5 back"
real cobalt
Lol i spend 5 got 20back the compensation was for a bug not for what you did before they put servers into emergency maintenance, anyways i know alot of people have asked for this in the past but why can we not upgrade the gear mats now when people are sitting at 100+ of the tier 1 upgrade mats?
jade tusk
20 are for all players and for the bug yes, for those who spend 100+ they will send part of what you spent as compensation but its just about 20-30% and ppl are thinking its unfair. Please just read about the situation first......
Its extremely tiring when the bug is their problem and now some of us have to deal with this shit, not just the loss but also from ppl who clearly doesnt care, dev is great as long as you get some cubes.
For those who are about to say "why cant you wait", oh god is it our fault to feel hyped about our fave ship... Have you not ever seen ppl rolling for new banners like mad right after every maint/ update....
My bad if this sounds like a rant but I just wish players who are lucky that they got more than what they spent could just... say something better than that........
shrewd iron
its how they get people to spend for cubes 🙂
stoic kettle
Feedback: give EN new (old JP...) or any dorm sets again
quiet basin
A free duke should be extra compensation imo
hollow shadow
What about the people upset because of bad RNG in the past events? People who spent 400-500 cubes to try to get Amagi and Tosa and other SRs in the last events? People here want to have fun in the game. The rates of all Rate Up SRs is said to be 2% but other people missed them while going for more than 500 cubes. People get upset alot by that too. Even if the percentage of playerbase is pretty low for that to happen but that are still people who lose their fun in this game and might quitor just stop supporting the game by not spending money anymore. Gatcha is gatcha but it should stop at a point to keep players happy and give them their ships they want. I love the game just like all others here but for now I'm still sad from the bad RNG on Amagi last event. I want to support the game by spending money but as heartbroken as I am at the moment I won't do that. It's not only me. Every event there is a small percentage op players who don't get what they wished for and gave everything. It just hurts sometimes to waste all your Ressources while not getting what you wanted. So by making players happier and staying in the game it would profit the dev team and the players. If there is more support from game side to help players there will be more help from players and more support for the game.
By ignoring the playerbase the amount of people supporting and at the end even playing the game will decrease while the bad reviews will increase and keep new players from a great experience this game can be. I hope that this game can come back to it's great potential with communication between devs and staff and the community. We all want the game to be great and spent time playing it and then as Happy players spent even more money. But getting heartbroken in most of the events gets people off the game and that's no what players want and not what devs want.

Hopefully we can reach a state where we don't feel unsafe to start playing immediately after an update. It's not a good reputation for the game to have. It's also not right to ask people to "wait" after an update. Surely there will always be frontliners and they shouldn't have to face the issues without fair compensation. There are those who spent 10 cubes and those who spent $500 before the hotfix. Hopefully those who spent under 100 cubes are not overlooked... everyone should be fairly compensated. If it is true that only 20% of resources are returned then that's not really fair imo. Especially to those who spent real money on gems to roll for nothing. Keep the players happy and they will keep playing. If I had spent $500 to roll for nothing I'd have already chargebacked all purchases and uninstalled. There are other gachas to play. Personally I've spent 80-100 cubes before the hotfix and have yet to receive any additional compensation.
velvet adder
What the fuck? They didn't even send us enough for two multis
This is like actually illegal
jade tusk
Haha......
velvet adder
Not just immoral but breaks laws in the EU and US
jade tusk
Also yeah those who spend more than 20 but less than 100 got nothing but the 20 compensation as well......(and that shouldnt count at all since its for all players)
velvet adder
I don't remember exactly but it was in the order of 100ish
Like sure screweups happen, I get that, but if you fuck up a banner like that you should send back everything that you stole
This isn't even enough for two multis... Like the number of coins is also extremely low
gritty belfry
im in no position to tell u how to phrase wordings but please no curse words, be civil while giving feedback, staff is here to help, not to hear bad words thrown out
velvet adder
They're explicitly allowed in the server but ok
obtuse breach
so wait, can we actually sue yostar for this? if it is actually illegal?
@velvet adder
velvet adder
It's more effective to report it to the appropriate regulatory agency
Blizzard already got hammered in the EU for loot boxes, so there is precedent for this
I personally don't have the time or money to take on a class action lawsuit myself tho
obtuse breach
so who should i actually report it to (EU) since im pretty stupid when it comes to this
jade tusk
So those who spent 100ish & 200ish got the same set of compensation.... 
raven quail
Couldn't they just rollback the resources we spent and allow us to keep our pulls through the mail or something of the sorts? I rather have a chance to get the ship I want rather than having 0 chances which is what happen the first time which in then forced me to spend even more resources like gems and such
velvet adder
I don't know, I live in the US so for me it's the consumer financial protection bureau and the federal trade commission
@raven quail Yes they totally could, but they didn't.
obtuse breach
they did that in the microlayer event on sandy/avrora servers
minor robin
velvet adder
They have done it in the past, so it's possible
minor robin
The law part aside since I'm not a lawyer
ripe trail
I knew you'd show up eventually, Ender.
minor robin
the microlayer thing WERE NOT INTENTIONAL ROLLBACKS
i've said this countless time during the incident
they were NOT rollbacks done by the devs
the rollback WAS the bug itself
velvet adder
I know that, but it's still indicative that they have thorough logs. They can just mail you the resources you spent
minor robin
the problem is in that case, ships were lost
bitter herald
yeah, they act like I want to got 6 sirius in the first place becoz I think DoY was in the pool? And after that they send me 40 cube, like I should share the problem with them since 6 sirius is still there, safe and sound? just WTF?
raven quail
Y'all got 40 cubes? I spent over 100 cubes and gems and I only got 20
velvet adder
The problem at hand is 40 cubes and 24k coins pales in comparison to what players actually spent on the impossible.
minor robin
The devs have to consider the players who rolled on swiftsure and were hence unaffected
And from what I know
The compensation given varies depending on how much the user has spent
velvet adder
They have thorough logs though, they should know what banner
It might vary but for everyone it's far lower than what was spent
They didn't even send you enough resources for two multis rolls
minor robin
It's different
raven quail
Yes, and it all it took was all my resources because DoY wasn't in the pool the first time where I spent the majority of my resources
velvet adder
jade tusk
uh....
velvet adder
Ender are you actually serious
sick hare
I personally was not affected nyt he bug in anyways but people not getting every single cube/coin/gem back seems pretty scummy tbh
raven quail
spare tulip
Keep yes, but it's basically we were lied to about what ships we could pull from the banner.
minor robin
This is very different from the microlayer issue so comparing to that is out of the question
granite bluff
they seriously should of just rolled back and refunded everyone like a normal game company would of
bitter herald
I dont want 6 sirius in the first place, I keep rolling becoz the banner tell me DoY in it. Like wtf? It's okay if It was bad RNG, but it's your fault becoz she isnt in the banner
minor robin
Regarding the logic for the compensation, we were told they would be compensated, but that's all we know of
sick hare
It was basically false advertising which is illegal in a lot of places. Full refund of mats is required
velvet adder
Right and we know the compensation cause we got it
And it was shit
jade tusk
It is false advertising yes....
turbid loom
Considering that stating that something is available while its not is false advertising, bombzen is right that its illegal and not compensating the full amount only compounds the issue
jade tusk
We spent for what was NOT even existed
granite bluff
but now if they decide to go back and do it
velvet adder
Yea, it's actually illegal in several jurisdictions
granite bluff
they will have to extend events
turbid loom
so this is now like the 4th or 5th legal issue the game could have/could be caught on
granite bluff
its false advertisement
minor robin
Rerolling is 100% out of the question at this point
obtuse breach
what were the other 3-4 
raven quail
Huh? It's the best course of action the devs can take and both sides are mutually benefitting from rolling back so why not do it?
minor robin
Because it's been over 24 hours?
velvet adder
Rolling back would have needed to happen during emergency maint
minor robin
Can you imagine how much progress everyone else will get rerolled, from builds, ships, everything?
turbid loom
stating something was on sale while it wasn't (the takao and atago school skins, the tahiou l2d skin, this and im blanking on the others
velvet adder
I just figure we should be compensated for what we spent
raven quail
Huh? Were we not asking for rerolling yesterday as well?
minor robin
You can't just "reroll the builds only"
velvet adder
@turbid loom in those cases there's no risk tho cause you couldn't attempt to buy a skin that wasn't there
minor robin
you'd have to reroll everything
raven quail
You also shut that down because people complained that they didn't want to lose their pulls and we presented the option of allowing us to keep our pulls while regaining our resources
bitter herald
I dont ask for reroll, I ask for at least 100% what I spent becoz DoY wasnt in the banner like u guy said.
raven quail
but no apparently that can't happen either
velvet adder
Rerolling doesn't really make sense
But compensation does
granite bluff
I wouldnt even care what progress I made tbh
minor robin
I brought the suggestion of rerolling before anyone even suggested it
bitter herald
20-30% of it is a joke
granite bluff
cause I made none lol
turbid loom
@velvet adder the atago and takao skins were listed as if they had a discounted price, but they were not discounted
velvet adder
What we got was not compensation, we got an apology bandaid
granite bluff
tartu events too hard
raven quail
I don't care if you take back all my pulls, at least give me back my resources since I have a fairer chance of getting the ship i want because she wasn't in the pool the first time like you guys advertised
velvet adder
@turbid loom didn't know that, huh
jade tusk
I understand that rerolling is not an option here but this compensation doesnt feel fair at all....
granite bluff
not that I spent a single cent on the gacha
velvet adder
they compensated everyone differently, but they compensated everyone at far less than what they spent
obtuse breach
i still didnt even get my compensation 
velvet adder
@minor robin Ender your job isn't to be a Yes Man to the devs
What we're saying about fair compensation makes sense so use your status and actually ask them about it instead of just defending this stupidity
raven quail
The reason I spent gems on gold after the hotfix because I'd thought we'd be getting our cubes and gold back from the amount we spent before the hotfix but nah. "here fam here's enough for one pull, sorry if you lost everything before"
granite bluff
Ive seen a game let ppl keep gacha rolls and give compensation before
south night
@obtuse breach it should be in the mail, along with the oil and coin
spare tulip
At least now I know to stop hyping new stuff you throw on banner, and stop buying gems for cubes. Well good to know 
velvet adder
If you escalated it why are you defending the response
jade tusk
granite bluff
but I guess they're just cheap here and be like "NO REFUND"
obtuse breach
@south night nope, not there, everything in my main is pvp rewards, trade license and maintenance compensation
minor robin
I'll bring up the part about the compensation again
south night
Check all the mail reward
flat vector
Just send DoY to everyone in the mail. This solves all the issues. Players get what they want, their resources were then used for what they want, Yostar already got the cubes and resources for the pulls that fund the company, and you save tons of company times searching through player history.
obtuse breach
i did 
velvet adder
God vkrp go away
sick hare
EN staff should be working on sending the "accurate" compensations right now. Instead they just go enjoy the weekend
raven quail
But some of us already have DoY but spent way more than we should have
granite bluff
that might would a bit better then just 40 cubes
velvet adder
@flat vector that would work but keep in mind that a lot of people over rolled cause they thought they were just unlucky
granite bluff
when ppl spent 200 to get DOY
jade tusk
i dont have much hope since I assume mod have suggested all of our ideas here before we even started to rant but ig i will wait (again)
jade tusk
yeah lol next event is soon....
granite bluff
though still kind of sucks for ppl that kept whaling because she didnt drop
jade tusk
cant help but feel like this is really smart move
flat vector
yeah but that can just be considered regular RNG. It's the best solution y'all got
jade tusk
raven quail
Well I like having a 2% chance rather than 0% you know
velvet adder
I makes more sense tho to mail everyone dork than it does to mail them 16 ship builds, that's for certain
jade tusk
a rng of 0%?
obtuse breach
yeah, DoY didnt exist in the special pool
flat vector
That's what I mean, yeah.
minor robin
Anyways Casey, I'll be sure to bring that up
granite bluff
40 cubes when you spent 200 is definitively a slap in the face
jade tusk
yeah a copy of DoY should at least helps, tho I cant say for all ppl here.....
raven quail
240 cubes to get one ship because the first 140 didn't have a chance to get her
jade tusk
anw ty for your effort again guess I will wait
hidden bear
I apologize for lengthening this discussion, but can I ask for how long was the game was online before the DoY issue was found out? Was it like 10 minutes?
obtuse breach
around 20-30 iirc
raven quail
lol thanks for ignoring the one option that'll keep the entire player base happy
velvet adder
Rollbacks won't dude
You can check the tweet times in game news for when emergency maint started @hidden bear
gritty belfry
some of us already rolled after hotfix for DoY and got her so sending her copy wouldnt help so giving back the the raw materials is better imo
jade tusk
yeah a lot were begging not to rollback
raven quail
Don't rollback everything. Just rollback the resources and allow us to keep our pulls
minor robin
I mean let's table the rollback thing or w/e
raven quail
Both sides are happy yeah.
velvet adder
@hidden bear server went up exactly 8 hours after maint started, and you can check tweet time for when it went down again
ripe trail
You can't just 'rollback resources', that ain't how it works
raven quail
Ok then compensate us for the amount we spent
obtuse breach
38mins before servers went down for emergency maint
raven quail
Not just measly 20, 40 cubes
shrewd iron
imagine being fair lol
worldly sentinel
Imagine getting upset after a game company acknowledges a mistake and tries to fix it
shrewd iron
imagine giving one party 20 cubes and another party 40 cubes months ago lol
sick hare
Those "mistakes" happen pretty often thou 
obtuse breach
the "tries to fix it" part is just slapping a bandaid on a open bone fracture and calling it good enough @worldly sentinel
jade tusk
"tries to fix it" yeah they fixed the bug ig.............
velvet adder
to properly compensate they'd have to inspect the logs for what people spent, which will take time to get working. I don't think it can come quickly
But in the short term they should at least acknowledge that this process is happening instead of mailing us 16 rolls and calling it quits
shrewd iron
just needs to give enough "compensation" to please the sheep majority
velvet adder
Except the Suffolks here are pretty dissatisfied too
obtuse breach
the sheep majority isnt the problem, its the whales that have enough cash for suing the company
quiet basin
Maybe they want us to farm DOY is the war archives 
jade tusk
i think the major playerbase are like "ty good dev" bc they get apologems tho
hidden bear
Okay, so it was 30 minutes...
Sorry, I was just trying to get a feel for time because I was like single building on the banner and I guess because I was doing that, I didn't have a good feel of the time frame.
It felt like it was only up for 10 minutes for me before I we all got booted for Emerg Maint.
So I was thinking "How the heck does someone spend 200 cubes in 10 minutes?".
But then again, I think back to how I spent a crap load of resources this morning in no time at all, so I can't be skeptical of you spending that much in a short amount of time.
minor robin
Regarding the legal issues I won't comment on them further since I'm not in a position to do so
obtuse breach
could we get an ETA for when we might hear back?
raven quail
Would this compensate the entire day or just the amount spent before the hotfix
minor robin
Unfortunately I will not be able to give any sort of ETA
hidden bear
IF they were to compensate you, it would most definitely just be the time frame in which DoY wasn't available.
But that's MY OWN THINKING.
raven quail
Thank you.
minor robin
Once again, I cannot promise if anything will come out of it
Though I can tell you that the staff have been checking not just this channel but other platforms over this incident.
hidden bear
I just hope everything can get resolved for everyone happily. D:
jade tusk
Got it, thank you anyway, will be waiting for the final decision then 
velvet adder
Yea nobody is asking for compensation after the patch @hidden bear
Since that was all business as usual
hidden bear
Yeah, no worries. xD
velvet adder
And I do expect proper compensation to take a while if they decide to go about it
shrewd iron
and i am sure they will check it for that 20/40 cube incident last time as well 
eternal bronze
Ehhh well im kind of a new player in AL and created a guild thinking it was real thing in the game, but no guild are useless they serve to nothing, i saw forum discussions from 2018 asking the devs to make guilds somewhat worth to create and join in and after 2 years nothing has changed.
Will Yostar add something interesting like Guild Wars and Weekly Rewards to guild players ?
rare jay
There are no known current plans. They have acknowledged people wanting actual content for guilds, but they haven't made any future plans public yet
real cobalt
okay since that DoY stuff is over for now can i ask once again when can we be able to upgrade material used for upgrading a) parts for gear, b) retrofits(i know you can up to t3 but i have so much of those and so little t4 would be nice to be able to upgrade to t4 retrofit mats)? would be a nice quality of life thing to have.
velvet adder
Being able to upconvert plates and T2 to T3 retro BPs has been suggested a lot
meager vapor
Hello I'm a current player in AL but I accidentally uninstalled my account because I thought you can install it on another device then sign in to your Yostar account and still be able to use your old account apparantly I was wrong but now I lost my account is there any way to get my old account back ? I tried contacting them they sent me a email but it says do not reply below this line and they haven't got back to me , do any of you know if there is a way to get my account back?

scenic flower
Really? We can't get more than one ultra-sandy?
boreal marsh
apparently someone on cn/jp tried with screenshots and you just never get another mic after the first one
idk if they would change it after that or not, but if you have 1 sandy kai, you can't have another
even if you scrapped it
minor robin
You cannot get more than 1 yes
The subsequent clearing of the event will get you a medal of sorts
cold tulip
Oh, thanks
minor robin
But yeah if what Mina said is true you're out of luck really
I can't verify the accuracy of those claims at this moment but yeah
Regardless, you should probably wait till the event comes back before doing anything
cold tulip
But what 'll happen if I haven't retrofitted San Diego and get the 2nd Microphone?
Sorry, but retiring retrofitted San Diego is a joke
minor robin
You can't get a second microphone at any one time

The subsequent clearing of the event will get you a medal of sorts
So your question wouldn't happen to begin with

normal vine
it'd be nice to see the subs from the time-limited banner last year being added to perm pool
magic dew
probably already suggested thousands of times, but having a gifting system (gems, skins, cubes, etc). This could also be a reason to join a guild/add more people (?)
normal vine
problem is that they need to make sure it can't be abused (e.g. if you get access to someone else's account, or make dupes to gift yourself stuff from the starter gems), which is why it probably won't happen
shell bramble
Whatever the rate could potentially be, it would still need to be foolproof (in the devs' eyes) from abuse, and the general request has been suggested before.
naive cobalt
the only way to make it balanced is to make it so small and irrelevant that you might as well not add it
spare tulip
Or just make it that you buy gifts only for IRL money. Like you go shop -> gems/packs -> choose to whom friend and buy it for IRL money. On the other hand, you can just gift someone google play card, or whatever they have for Apps store, so you don't really need gifting system ingame
magic dew
what if they did something like the retire where there was a max of 12 items or something like that
idk just throwing out ideas

We need to be able to swap around ships when makign a fleet in Hard Maps. Its a pain of having to removwe parts of the vanguard just to get a bew ship in the front most part
boreal marsh
you can always put the ship you want at the front first
it will move to the front, even if the slot you use was originally 2nd/3rd
vestal olive
I meant here. As in, it would be a nice improvement to just swap ships around here
boreal marsh
well, if you meant swapping it after cause you felt the first formation wasn't the best after trying it out
then yea i guess
cause in the beginning, you could put in any ship first, it will move to the front

Another joke from the censorship filter. The word 'probability' turned into 'pro***lity'. Are you serious, devs? Somebody said 'babi' is indonesian swear word. WHAT??? Indonesian? I'm Russian, who plays Chinese game in English! Do you want me to list you kinda 300-400 Russian offensive words and expressions? Why won't you include them in your filter rules? What about French and German words, Spanish and Portuguese? Most of them use latin or similar letters to some extent. WTF, let's censor this agressive planet!!! This is completely ridiculous! This filter is useless anyway! People are neither idiots or saints. People are just using umlauts, other language letters and various symbols to cheat the filter (0m@nko, äss, fcк, d!ldo, etc). It doesn't work as it's suposed to. You can't ban all the combinations, ever. So, the only function of this filter is to annoy people who did not even think to write something obscene. How long should we tolerate this nonsense? Why won't you add the 'switch off the censorship' checkbox in the settings? Let people confirm they are adults and leave it to their conscience. At least, make the white list for the filter rules.

Wouldnt it ne funny if akashi is Mad on you if you type a bad word? Like you don't get gifts anymore and she don't appericiate you anymore in the shop.
scenic flower
Define the bad word. Is 'probability' a bad word? I guess no, but you'll trigger Akashi with it.
arctic arch
if you write a word that gets censored akashi jumps to your screen and give you a warning that its not good to write these kind of things and next time she gets mad and dont like you anymore xd
spare tulip
The thing is that censor script doesn't know what spacing is. Tell me if I am wrong, but Chinese, Japanese and Korean languages don't use spacing, so script is prepared to catch slurs and censor it from the context. So this is why random words are getting bleeped in English, which may contain otherwise slur words.
Devs should change that censoring works only on standalone words.
Currently, I would never bother using ingame chat, if I can't write for example Japan or japanese, without getting censored "000an"/"000anese"

I find the censorship funny tbh but not the reason im in here... So on the pr1 ships im curious on why its 1 mil xp then 2mil xp this might be the ocd in me but why didnt it just be 3mil in one section or why not 1.5mil in both? Still is 3 mil xp needed just either combined or evened out. Again i have no idea why this bothers me as much as it does.
cedar plover
the swear filter is better at censoring perfectly fine words than it is at censoring offensive ones.
that is a problem, no?
real mountain
Yes the censor filter is a complete joke and I don't understand how they can let if be such a joke for years now. The fact that you can't even name your ship her literal name, for example Cassin is mindboggling. I love how it gets touted that AL global is a localization, not just a translation every time some wonky translation issue or Bel-chan or w/e pops out yet actual localization features such as taking into account different writing system and adjusting stuff like chat, censor filter, character spacing or figuring out how to support stuff like time zones are not done correctly after almost 2 years. Global players just 3rd class citizens as far as specific quality of life issues go.
hidden bear
Why is Peli censored? O_o
stray carbon
there is an additional filter which allows certain words to not be censored that contains some ship names, but that one got only updated once
cedar plover
However, unlike the blacklist filter, the whitelist filter is case sensitive.
That's why "Torpedo" isn't censored, but "torpedo" is.
stray carbon
but yeah the filter is pretty bad, they have put more effort into censoring different variations of fuck than excluding allowed words
velvet adder
and the censor applies to ship names too, so you can't rename your oathed "Cassin (Retrofit)" to "Cassin" because it has ass as a substring
it's a thing that definitely could use some work
If they wanted to censor renaming ships, at least they should only apply the censor as a visual filter in PvP or something, since otherwise nobody else can see your ship names, so there's no particular reason to censor them
ornate basin
its been brought up to staff to improve on the word filter as it has tons of inconveniences
velvet adder
I can see why you'd want to censor chat, but censoring a ship rename is pointless for the most part since those names aren't public
in other news @minor robin re: dork fiasco, have you heard back from the devs yet?

With the pool of regular ships constantly growing, how about event-less rate ups?

When the current fleet has emptied their amno, they can't fire any bullets, using skills or anything whatsoever (like where does the bullets even came from? Magic?) And they'd do some of their melee attack, like Z23's dragon headgun, it'd snap at them, melee attackers now have their defense raised for about 75% of their original defense, and does for 200% of their bullet's damage, however, their atk rate is reduced by 17%, the Empty Amno debuff won't have any effects on Melee atk, obviously, they are all toggleable. Also the rewards and exp is tripled (only if the melee compesation stat boosts is disabled).
The backline ship would does the same thing, only if the cruisers or battleships (literally ships) sneaked onto their range
Also this function (modifier) only applies to the stages that have no amno reloading node
p.s please don't hurt me

Hello I have little idea to add option in dorm i mean to look how Item It will look like in our dorms For example, I would like to see if a given item will fit the width of the grids and how it looks on the side as well as whether I will compose with other furniture that is already laid out

Anything on compensation for DoY problem for people who pulled for her and even used gems to get her while she was not in building pool? Sadly some people I know who spent their gems to get her left the game es nothing comes back and they don't get compensated for a mistake on games side? I think it's sad to see fellow players who played for a very long time, had fun in the game and liked it for what it was, leaving the game as it seems like staff side doesn't care about the player base..... We all want to play this game and have a great experience but with bugs like that last one without a solution to get players back and not "force them out of the game" by not caring about them?? That's not what the game and community needs.....
And what about the people upset because of bad RNG in the past events? People who spent 400-500 cubes to try to get Amagi and Tosa and other SRs in the last events? People here want to have fun in the game. The rates of all Rate Up SRs is said to be 2% but other people missed them while going for more than 500 cubes. People get upset alot by that too. Even if the percentage of playerbase is pretty low for that to happen but that are still people who lose their fun in this game and might quitor just stop supporting the game by not spending money anymore. Gatcha is gatcha but it should stop at a point to keep players happy and give them their ships they want. I love the game just like all others here but for now I'm still sad from the bad RNG on Amagi last event. I want to support the game by spending money but as heartbroken as I am at the moment I won't do that and it's not only me.

@hollow shadow
hollow shadow
Every event there is a small percentage of players who don't get what they wished for and gave everything. It just hurts sometimes to waste all your Ressources while not getting what you wanted. So by making players happier and staying in the game it would profit the dev team and the players. If there is more support from game side to help players there will be more help from players and more support for the game.
flat wadi
but thats just RNG
velvet adder
@hollow shadow we've been over this in this channel, mods asked devs what's up but can't say anything unless instructed
turbid loom
The Devs should be the ones making any statements regarding the issue, not the moderators anyway. Serious problems like this should be handled directly by those that can solve it rather than a powerless middleman.
lunar sundial
this channel is pretty much useless believe me, they won't give u an answer and most likely ur feedback wont reach the devs
velvet adder
Well when the Quick Retire came out and it didn't behave the way many people wanted it to, they took all the feedback in this channel and made it configurable
if you want a concrete example of how feedback in this channel has helped shape the game
stray carbon
tbf its hard to get the feedback all the way through to the chinese devs
turbid loom
while i don't fully agree that there is no use to the channel, the lack of communication with, or even just acknowledgement from, the devs directly makes this seem like speaking into a void. The quick retire system was flawed upon release in a way that should have been caught by QA and basic playtesting, so honestly its hard to tell if the fix was in response to feedback or if it was just planned refinement done after the fact.
ebon mulch
Honestly, the fact that they take suggestions from the community at all is pretty good compared to most game devs

Just a comment on Surcouf's new skin, and perhaps a bit of a tieback to Ashigara's recently created swimsuit skin: These new skins are getting hair colours wildly different from the ones their base skin has. Just curious as to why this discrepancy is happening?
I know answers would obviously not be on hand, but... I'm just hoping this question is fine to bring up to the devs outside of the scope of "No feedback about skins." since not sticking to previous models is a bit weird for a game dev company to do.

It sure would be nice to get a break from build events to restock on cubes before the next event hits. We've had build events going on for two months straight. And by break I don't mean a couple days with one buildable event ship (I'm looking at you, Tartu) I mean an actual break.

Now some time after mandatory update, I can say that the game itself feels more sluggish than before it seems. At least the "performance improvements" are so small, I cannot say, if there was any improvements at all. Only the smooth audio fade in and out reminds me that there was an update. I think some of the skill animation time were made shorter to have a faster pacing game play. But performance wise.. it might be worse or there was no change.
It is a 2D game but with rather high resolute graphics, which might impact many phones (like mine) with weak graphic chips or bad texture handling. Somehow it seems that the game sometimes suffer from memory leak, since the game becomes slower with time, but I don't have evidence for this (except some background apps shut down itself after some time just to free ram it seems). maybe it would be wise to review the memory management (auto garbage collection can be tricky and mean if you're relying too much on that).

weary relic
I have 2 sugestions that kind of go hand in hand.
First, please implement a button on the construction pools to see what ships you already have and which you dont. Just how u can see it on stages. Also, i think it be nice for both the existing stage ship drop preview and my proposed construction pool ship preview to just show us an icon of the ships in question that can be unlocked. You can already see this information in memories>archives anyway with the exception of event ships (as to what specific stage they drop from). I do think that for new events this info on exactly which stage a ship drops could be remained hidden. But i think we should be able to see it for reruns and war archives event stages.
naive cobalt
both were suggested
tardy arch
that's been suggested before but that already exists. as you said, in memories > archives. and the archives do show you what event you can get event ships in. if you want the specifics you could look up the event on the wiki or just ask in general or gameplay help for that info.
naive cobalt
"you can do it in a convoluted way using wiki" is not a counter-argument, light
fast canyon
Can we get some options to change fleets, like disband all/vanguard/main instead of take out one at time, move the 6th to the 1, 2 or 3rd slot for example.
Also, have a hardmode fleet slot, that you can select while entering a hard mode and the game will highlight wich of those are not compatible with the stage.
About hard mode to, on the Advice can we have some options like oil saving, by faction, and the default of higher level.
naive cobalt
Clear all was suggested
Pre-made hardmode fleets are literally useless, since every map has its own requirements so your fleet will never be compatible with more that 1
fast canyon
The idea is that just to change those that are not compatible, while keep the others.

The game looks super weird on the IPhone 11 with it’s notch, can you add something to make it look nice and flush?
I just got my 11 and I realized that my two options are to use a small UI that doesn’t take up my entire screen or use a large one that loses functionality because of the notch
Overall it looks bad either way

Just short feedback on the recent roadmap announcement, same as last time when the en divergence, amagi skin etc was announced/explained, it’s good that things are being communicated and in timely manner. Keep doing this. A lot of concerns the player base has can be alleviated by simple communication and explanation.

Sorry if this doesn't go here, but something I thought of - should the devs add a note in the info screen for PR ships specifically mentioning that dorm/exercise/comms xp doesn't count toward the PR completion? I see way too many people in gph asking this exact question and just felt it should be more obvious
honest ivy
This is really minor, but I think a filter on the dock for ships below 100 intimacy would be nice. Something to remove any that are at or above 100, kind of like how there's an "enhanceable" filter.
I'm trying to go for 200 ships at 100, and I'm just sorting by intimacy and scrolling down until I don't see a heart in their box, but it's still like 120 ships I'm having to scroll by atm. I figure this would be an easy addition.
void schooner
Just hit the ascend/descend button. It'll put the ships with the lowest intimacy at the top.

With how the new Siren's are looking way more interesting than the old Siren characters, would we be seeing updates happen to Purifier, Observer, etc? They sort of look bland and no longer match the aesthetic of the newer designs.

But then I get like another 200 of the ones I haven't been working on/at 50 intimacy. Again, I know it's really minor because scrolling takes like 3 seconds, but yeah

@merry grove the "new" french ships was already released earlier (but for CN/JP), thats why they have voices already

Some are voiced immediately while some can wait up for a year before they're voiced. There's a lot of factors in play.

With more phones being developed every year, and having higher aspect ratios than the typical default, 16:9, Will there be more support for those kinds of phones? When attacking an enemy fleet, there are still borders that appear.
minor robin
outside of combat, such nonstandard ratios are already supported
within combat it's not as simple since the screen needs to well move
grizzled lily
Will there be support for within combat? Or is that to be decided?
cedar plover
I believe the borders are to make the gameplay fair, as wider screens would have an advantage by being able to see enemy ships further away, and narrower screens would have the opposite.
naive cobalt
fair against who and how?
cedar plover
well I mean
the gameplay would be the same regardless of the ratio.

it literally wouldn't be affected

Dear Azur Lane Team,
I have here some suggestions that would make gear management easier.
The filter that is in the gear tab is nice, but it would be great if it had a few more options. The changes I would make are:
- Replacing “Main Gun” with “DD Gun”, “CL/CA Gun” and “BB Gun”
- Replacing “Aircraft” with “Fighter”, “Dive Bomber” and “Torpedo Bomber”
- Group “Auxiliary” gear into categories e.g. “Anti Sub” for anti-submarine warfare or grouping everything that can only be used by aircraft carriers like “Aviation Oil Tank” and “Steam Catapult” into one.
This would probably need a sub-menu like the one we have inside the dock.
Then there is the crafting menu. This is also the reason why I decided to write this because my list is huge, it's not easy finding the blueprint you want when there are more than 100 blueprints that can be crafted. So adding the filter options from the gear menu to the crafting menu would make things a lot easier.
Maybe I am the only person that has a problem with it, but when you get some shiny new gear and want to give it to your boat waifu, you press that “change” button and it shows you that wall of purple and gold and maybe even rainbow that gets used by all your other girls. Yes there is the button to toggle that, but next time you want to change gear it reverts to the default. Would it be possible that you can change the default inside the options menu?
And one last thing inside my item inventory where all the equipment boxes are there are also “1st-year anniversary letter”, “New Dawn Coin”, etc. those are Memorabilia right? So they shouldn't be lying around with the other stuff. Those special items deserve their own inventory.
I hope that at least something from these gets added to the game.
With best regards,
UselessAqua
velvet adder
Would be cool if they made a coin equivalent of the 1k oil boxes in the leveling packs and changed maintenance compensation to that, so we aren't forced to overflow if we only need one of the resources.
lethal solstice
Well the same goes for the trade licence.
merry sonnet
It would be neat if "newer" players had any way to unlock Friedrich der Grosse at this point. Any player that started after the event in October would need both Zeppy and Graf and pretty much every KMS ship that is regularly obtainable at 120 to get her. Even missing one would mean you can't hit the required 630 tech points. And Graf and Zeppy are apparantly not even included in the wishing well event, even though they are not new ships that were released after the 19th of march.
minor robin
the past german events will be archived eventually
opaque sparrow
It would be nice to be able to filter ships by oil cost too... it comes in handy when trying to manage fleet oil cost.
Also, for quick retire, i find it a bit buggy. It would be cool to either define how many copies of blue/purple/gold u want to keep or allow to keep enough for MaxLB+retrofit (in case of retrofits like Sandy). Is there an explanation of how the current quick retire works? it always offers me to get rid of copies that i actually need...

wow, additional 2 hours? expecting additional compensation too~
hollow scaffold
Only 2 hours extension? Last time it was 20+ hours

An earlier notice for the extension would've been better as there were people who actually stayed up late waiting for the game to be up only to end up getting greeted with a 'fuck you' as it was about to supposedly end
obtuse breach
Yeah, didnt sandy and avrora just kinda hit the bucked for the first 2 days of intrepid event
hollow scaffold
We need 48h maintenance now
@obtuse breach
minor robin
I mean in all honesty, what likely happened is that they tried their best to get maint to end on time, and only realised towards the end of it that it was impossible to finish in time, hence why it was "last minute"
minor robin
And not just them telling "fuck you" in the face for staying up
Since we've been seeing lots of maintenance ending on the dot
round wedge
You could atleast be better at your job as letting people know ahead of time if you will encounter problems along the way. Now a lot of people will just sleep in with a 10 hour long empty dorm that will not be compensated for obviously because it's the player's fault
Not to mention missed commissions and research tasks
naive cobalt
If they knew they'd need to extend maint - they would've said so from the start.
That's why it's "extended"
hollow scaffold
Last time the extension was too short only like 30h hours 
round wedge
Overshooting your ETAs and just ending the maintenance early would've been better. It has been like that when I started the game.
naive cobalt
It isn't this time
round wedge
Yes it hasnt been for the longest of time.
And everyone is doubting whether or not maintenance will be extended whenever a maintenance would occur
Back then you would expect maintenance to end an hour or more before the declared maintenance ETA
obtuse breach
Maintenance either ends 30mins before ETA or it gets extended by a couple hours, dont like it? Send a email to techsupport complaining to mods who dont have any controll wont change anything
naive cobalt
I'll repeat again - every patch note mentions that the maint might be extended
minor robin
Tech support actually have a job to help people with their account issues when they happen
naive cobalt
If they knew they'd need to extend maint - they would've said so from the start.
@hollow scaffold If you have nothing productive to add - stop
round wedge
The statement about the "maintenance time" is vague because a change in time either makes it longer or shorter
naive cobalt
Yes
velvet adder
since it can happen both ways, it's accurate to be vague
hollow scaffold
100% inaccurate tho
naive cobalt
It specifically means that "10 hours" is not an exact time and it might be extended or end shortly
and that if it's changed in any way - people will be notified, which they were
lilac anvil
because it's "approximately"
naive cobalt
- It wasn't
- This time it isn't
fast canyon
Well, if they found a problem, better to extend the mantenance that have minor problems to solve here and there while the event is runing, a more responsible approach so really dont know why people is complaining.
Back to game feedback, is possible to add a receive all for the comissions and display all the rewards and exp gained all together.
Could be possible to get something like "reward history" to keep a "progress" of builded/retired/used for enhance ships, and rewards from comissions, mail, event/core/other shops and similar stuff?
naive cobalt
Receive all and display rewards together was suggested.
Not sure about history, I'll check later and add it if it wasn't

I just want to let this be known to the team that works on Azure Lane. I love playing Azure Lane so much that I would like to see it on the Nintendo Switch platform.
The Switch makes perfect sense for Azure Lane because of its portability and the touch screen feature. Of course the developers could choose to make it a touch only game, but why do that when you have the versatile Joycons.
Which you could use to point and control the ship girls when they are in battle. The 3 main weapons could be assigned to: X, A and B.
With the Switch's large install base it presents a perfect opportunity for Yostar to expand it's player base and make more money.
It would be to weird to put the mobile version on the PS4 in my opinion. You could let the PS4 have Azure Lane Crosswave and give the Switch Azure Lane mobile. What are you waiting for?

Hi, curiously - Are the EX lines for Jean Bart in? Because I don't see her saying anything different?
viscid moon
ok

the plaza is pretty cool, a nice step up from the CNY buffs

I love the added furniture thing but there is one slight issue and its that if you have something in the left corner specifically it can be tricky to move it as the already added thing gets in the way at times

Hey so i don't know if anyone suggested this but with the addition of the Jukebox system, i was hoping that the devs would be able to add in past songs like the ones in the Polaris game and past OSTs from events like Scherzo of Iron and Blood. It would also be pretty cool if you were able to play the songs outside of the Jukebox. (i.e. when you're in the main menu or sortieing). I think that'd make the jukebox system alot better but that's just my thoughts on it.

i would like for the dorm to remember my last zoom/position settings so i don't have to zoom out every time i go in to look for dorm coin bubbles
hazy girder
I don't want to complain because I love the new dorm UI but I was reallllllly hoping it would include more "custom" theme save slots. For those of us who like to decorate our dorms from all different themes 5 is just not enough ♥️
real cobalt
Ender you know im not happy with the jukebox but the gallery on the other hand is nice tho. Arethere plans to add more to it? Like from past events? Or maybe add the scenes from story mission to it because some of those are nice
shell bramble
In the new Gallery / Jukebox views, I would recommend changing the button that says "SAVE" to instead read as "SAVED". The way it is now, I keep thinking I need to click that button in order to mark the current item as something to save, as opposed to being the way to quickly look at saved items (especially on the Jukebox screen, since the red color makes it easier to notice)
Let me know if I should submit it as a bug-report instead

THANK GOD FOR THE JUKEBOX. (It's a start)

uuh where's jean's EX lines ?

real cobalt
So these have been empty for awhile now are there plans to fill them with anything? Maybe retrofit parts? Or anything? For now it feels like its been forgotten.
naive cobalt
It was suggested before to expand this section.
If there's plans to do so or no we don't know
hollow grail
Has there been a suggestion for being able to see the mood of the shipgirls when you're selecting who to be placed in (in the dock screen)?
Would be nice to be able to see who's below 120 morale, without putting them in one-by-one to see in the dorm, so to not lose out on the EXP bonus
shell bramble
It has been suggested before, yes
hollow grail
Alrighty, thank you for checking
dry pond
Please add a furniture coin sink, such as more expansions, new sets, or some conversion. more floors to make it a high rise

I really like the new gallery, a loading screen that's not in the gallery, I would like to get this one added

I was just wondering if my jukebox suggestion earlier was noted

@open gazelle it has been noted, we’d like to see these songs as well

Could we get a option for a "skin randomizer" for ships and weapons into battle that make them change their Skins and weapons/planes skins every time they go into a battle.

Will more loading screens be added into the gallery?

There's a good chance for it. Just give it time.

1200 gems for the last dorm space? oh na
any intentions on reducing that? The price of one dorm slot was almost as expensive as slot 4, 5 and 2F
dry pond
The price seems fine for the amount of value in passive gains you get from it
naive cobalt
also you're absolutely free to not buy it, it's a straight qol improvement and non-essential, same as 3rd academy slot
@rain snow Toxicity is not necessary. If you have nothing to add - refrain from leaving comments.
rain snow
also you're absolutely free to not buy it, it's a straight qol improvement and non-essential, same as 3rd academy slot
@naive cobalt isn't this also a comment that adds absolutely nothing tho? I don't get the double standard, sorry
ebon mulch
Not sure what you said, but no, this is a useful comment. The concern is that the sixth slot is unusually expensive; one response is that it isn't a harmful addition, because you're not obligated to purchase it.
ornate basin
we respond to feedback in this channel when applicable, feedback assistant and manager
naive cobalt
It's not even "unusually" expensive
Each slot cost more than the previous one
3 - 300, 4 - 500, 5 - 800, 6 - 1200
it's a pretty straight pattern
6th slot is not-essential and your quality of life doesn't go down if you can't afford it
which is what was my answer
it was mostly added as response to the fact fleets are 6-ship, while dorm only fits 5 ships.
It's qol, nothing more
hidden bear
Hey, at least it's 1200 for both floors, instead of one floor each.
Considering the Dorm now has 6 slots... will the Secretary screen get a 6th one?
Oh, and how about possible purchasing of slots that actively raise affection, like the first does?
naive cobalt
It was suggested to have more secretary slots.
As well as them raising affection iirc. I'll add it if this one wasn't

I know translation stuff is a bit of a funny topic but could we perhaps consider having Le Malin's skill 'Gassing Breath' change to the JP name 'Poison Croix'.
I ask for two reasons: 1. It sounds more French. 2. I'm unsure she has halitosis...

When you max limit break a ship. THe notification showing you how much tech points you get gets displayed behind the ''limit break'' screen that pops up. So you won't see the amount of point unless you close the limit break screen quickly. Maybe have it so that the notification for fleet tech poitns displays afterwards and not in conjuction instead.
hmm, this might be a bug or an oversight but i dont know
cedar plover
I'll recommend it again
Can the movement limit be removed when all Sirens are demolished? The only reason the movement limit is there is to make it so the Sirens have a 1/100000000 chance of ambushing you, and once they are gone, it is just a waste of time.
Clearing mode is nice as-is, though.

IMO the new protoshop is useless AF for casual players like me that only had 1 or few PR ships that is Dev30. When I heard about the shop, I'd thought it would allow me to exchange those BPs of ships that I haven't developed to get BPs for ships that I've developed and want to focus on to get it to Dev 30.
Instead I can only exchange BPs of those Dev30 ships which I'm sure many of us don't really have given how hard it is to get BPs already...
naive cobalt
That is the point of the protoshop, correct
obtuse breach
the point is for those who have finished PR 1 and non DR PR2 to get more DR prints
merry grove
that's fucked up making it benefit to some people and not everyone.
solemn citrus
It’s basically to prevent overflow of bps. As an example, I had 80ish sanrui and ~150 Georgia and Seattle combined sitting there being wasted. The shop allows me to repurpose those into useful blueprints to me
If your ships still aren’t maxed, all blueprints are useful, so no reason to exchange them
merry grove
If I don't want to develop this ship, then this ship's bp is useless
and have every reason to exchange them
solemn citrus
Regardless, the intention is for you to eventually max all ships and use overflow in the shop. Pr1 only has to be dev30, not dev35 at least
merry grove
eventually? when is that gonna happen, 2 years? 3 years? It's already difficult as it is to get BPs. Do you know how long it took me to get my sanrui to dev30, 8 months man... and you wanna know how many BPs I have of her now, 1.... Wow I'm so happy for you that the shop is going to be useful for people like you and I won't get anything from it.
obtuse breach
8 months is very slow tbf, in 8 months you can dev30 all PR1's
ebon mulch
That assumes you have a lot of gold income and spend most of it on research
merry grove
oh so you think it's slow but you don't think that I should be able to use the protoshop to exchange BPs of ship that I won't be developing to speed up my other developing ship? okay
obtuse breach
ariadust already explained, protoshop is to help get rid of USELESS PR prints, if your ships arent dev30 then that means theyre usefull, even if you dont care about the ship
merry grove
EveN If yOu dont caRE aBOut tHe ShIp, means its not useful
obtuse breach
sigh this is going nowhere
merry grove
I'm just giving my feedback and you just keep denying me, of course it's not going anywhere
"in 8 months you can dev30 all PR1's"... yeah right
obtuse breach
PR2 released like 5 months ago, people already have all PR dev30 and 1 person has both DR's at dev30, so yes, you can definitelly dev30 all PR1 in 8 months
naive cobalt
Please stop. Especially after you yourself admitted there's no point in this argument.
verbal marsh
I think that just assumes you play more than doing dailies and logging out <,< I've been playing since right before AS, and have all PR dev'd except FDG, Gascan, and Izumo.
merry grove
wow congrats to that 1 hardcore person. While the rest of us casual have to grind and suffer for like what years?
naive cobalt
I told you all to stop
verbal marsh
On a more productive note, are suggestions for future ships allowed/accepted? 😄
naive cobalt
no
ornate basin
just a friendly reminder to keep conversations and debate about a suggestion constructive
verbal marsh
Darn.. I want to see oilers in-game
ornate basin
please check pins to see what we do not take feedback on
merry grove
So are you gonna at least suggest it to the developer or are you going to throw my feedback away
naive cobalt
We'll note it down, but as I and others pointed out - protoshop has specific purpose and being able to sell BPs freely goes against this purpose
So I can give you 99% guarantee it won't be considered
merry grove
Well that purpose kinda really suck ass

The new Gallery function of the Memento Menu... Fantastic! It's the best non-gameplay related thing added in a while. Nothing would make me happier than if you expanded the selection to all of the loading backgrounds over time.

Perhaps an option to disable this suggestion screen that you get upon defeat?
compact solstice
I agree on the gallery, please continue to expand on it.
Also please get us the pizza hut Belfast skin in EN. I am prepared to giveaway my firstborn.
ornate basin
we do not take feedback on when events come to us
we cant guarantee collabs in any form either, we can only hope
dry pond
it looks like only one visiting secretary ship is shown at a time/the latest visitor will replace it in the dorm 
could it be expanded to 2 or more?
also would be nice if they could be interacted with normally, like your own ships in your dorm
storm prairie
could we please get something more valuable out of "pick a free ssr" events if we have them all? i feel like being robbed while i get 10 medals while "everyone else" is getting an ssr of their choice.
so like either put something like 20 cubes or 8k gold or idk into the choosable rewards OR maybe add more recently released ships into the pool (afaik everyone except prince of wales, shoukaku and zuikaku were available on release which was almost 2 years ago 🙂 ) so theres less chance for stuff to be redundant
untold cloud
is it possible for the ships to have a shocked animation when the flagships encounter an air strike or ambush when sorting
or like a sinking animation when like the flagships get sunk

dorm has awfully long load times with the new update, until it even displays correct information, let alone furniture and girls
viscid moon
Is there any reason why I have to clear out my depot when transferring equipment between ships? Seems superfluous
If it's not necessary can that be changed
scenic flower
Today I was decieved by new picture of Limited Strategic Supplies in the shop. I thought I can buy it and keep it at my depot until the moment I'll want to open it and get my oil (just as the containers from the pack some time ago). I bought 4 packs before noticing, that I have 18k oil now, because this pack works exactly as before. And you know... I was kinda PISSED. There are also commissions, rewards and other stuff giving me oil, so I will have a hard time spending all this oil, skipping the daily quest and canteen income. But okay, I won't ask for compensation. I only ask you to not decieve people. Please, return the old picture of oil barrel without the container. OR. Make a legit container from it, so that the content matches the new picture.
naive wasp
Now that we have a Gallery could we possibly get the loading screens back that were removed? Or better yet, an option under settings that would allow people to see those loading screens when loading again if we wanted to?
viscid halo
I would like to thank the devs for the 6th dorm slot, it is a major QoL upgrade and much appreciated

Can you make the vibration from notifications on phone shorter cuz when i have like 3 or more commissions or trainings finishing at once its like my phone is ringing

Aren't those device specific?

Can the dorm food bar size be reverted? It being this tiny makes it a bit farther to reach, as well as miss tapping.
velvet adder
Load Times do seem to be significantly longer with the new dorm, this is true
it's the kind of increase that makes me want to empty my dorm out of any furniture
was hoping they could maybe figure out how to deal with that
tame walrus
The load time is insignificantly longer in my experience
It's a few milliseconds per furniture it seems and it's honestly hardly enough for me to notice, and my dorm is decently busy. It might be a device thing, since on emulator I felt like loading times were actually faster than before this patch
real cobalt
If you are not a mod and dont have anything to add that is constructive please do not respond to my feedback. Would it be possible to add certain boosts to things in game like xp boost events?(only on story missions. Also mainly for pr1 ship grinding.) Would make exp grinds more bearable. Instead of an all around XP boost do faction exp boosts on certain days. Just a thought.
naive cobalt
There's literally one going on right now @real cobalt
ornate basin
and during new year events we have the shrine that increases exp gain I believe
real cobalt
Can i rephrase my feed back? I assume thats not permanent? So could we get them more often like every other 2 weeks for like 3 days? After this goes away?
ornate basin
we have no say on when events can come around, including exp ones, but I believe someone before has suggested an xp boost consumable, but I cant quite recall 
I think an xp boost consumable would be helpful in your case and for us because it does not concern event pacing
naive cobalt
They're clearly not talking about event pacing, Kawa 
ornate basin
I figured its still considered an event though
naive cobalt
Also I should prolly update that pin about feedback
ornate basin
its the only basis we are on, of course you should 
naive cobalt
About feedback at hand - I can see several issues with it and game already has better and more permanent exp boosts at hand, namely certain EXP boosting skills and high morale bonus, as well as way to "play" around it by trying to guarantee MVP bonus on specific ships. Each of these things separately will grant much bigger boost than "little exp boost for 3 days every 2 weeks"
real cobalt
Restart the only problem is the exp boost skill ships. Are few and not always helpful ie the only one i have is the ijn cruiser and while it does boost cruisers it doesnt help as much if your not using it to get ibuki(im after roon so its not that helpful to me i get more exp with 3 kms cruisers over two kms and 1 ijn) the skill is great i wont deny it but when its limited to a few nations it is kind of pointless.
Oh i thought of something so i know not all ships have all their skill slots filled so could there be a inherit skill from other ships or something like that? Sorry this is lengthy. And also sorry if its hard to understand. But thank you for your patience
carmine ginkgo
Suggestion : Add a requirement to the protoshop to disable it for anyone who doesn't have any PR at dev30 so players in the future would know you can only use it if you have a dev30 PR in your hands :3
Cuz... it's pretty much disabled if you don't have a dev30 ship with you. and it doesn't say so till you go to the shop and try to convert existing BPs and findout yourself which wasn't a pleasant experience (for me)
cedar plover
Suggestion: Make there a better visual indication of a passive gear activation, as right now, the ships just seem to be shouting for no reason.
As a matter of fact, it might be better to not shout and just have a popup.
Something just like the skill activation popup:
Or you could just do a little icon next to the chibi and a brief blurb of text:

Would it be possible to show the amount of oil while making a hard mode fleet?

so you know what elite to avoid and what elite to go for (ofc you get used to it with time but... it only takes a dead week for me to forget it all)
solemn citrus
you want to kill the sirens though, as they drop the same equipment BPs as the boss
obtuse breach
only sirens and boss can drop gold gear, and give more xp than normal enemies, so you usually want to kill them
carmine ginkgo
if I'm doing D2 yes I want to do all the sirens. in D3.. don't think so tbh. I'd avoid a BB siren if my backline is too squishy but go for a CV siren if my AA is good enough

is it possible to implement the statistics requirements used on hard mode to lift node restrictions on event map in normal mode.
