[stiff sparrow]

Our guild did two easy operations this month already

And now a lot of the members cannot join the third operation

This is the error message you get

We didn't have this problem for the previous two operations

My issue is that they failed to communicate the fact that you can only do two operations per month (or its a bug)

[hearty crane]

So its "participations" not "partisipants"? Still silly.

[scenic flower]

It explains everything. I went through an easy operation in the old guild, then changed the guild and helped them finish off the boss in their first operation, and then I could not join their second operation, because for me it was already the third operation.

[stiff sparrow]

"Eligible Participants" does not mean "Number of remaining operations"

And the info tab does not mention the limit anywhere

[ruby robin]

it most likely actually is participants, it should tally the people who still have yet to complete their operations
the main conflict is the imposed limit on operations though and it not being mentioned anywhere readily apparent I believe

[stiff sparrow]

It could mean something else

I'm not even discussing whether there should be a limit or not. I'm just pointing out that they failed to communicate it to the players.

[trail elk]

Please consider adding a feature that lets us check guild support gear, it's annoying that people slap big name shipgirls and then you find out they are unequipped.

[zinc kiln]

Not sure if this was suggested already but could we have an un-equip all button? With 5 total fleets including submarines in OP siren switching from that mode to normal maps and PvP takes such a long time. Going through every ship taking gear off is very tedious. (Looking back this was last asked for in June of 2019 but bringing it back up for the current state of the game it makes more sense)

[barren roost]

Funny how you ask for QoL feature when devs still haven't fixed the BB targeting reticle, which is impossible to aim with because it's white so it blends with all the explosions on the screen WHICH ARE ALSO WHITE.

Oh, and the skins completely covering the screen so you can't see a thing when backliners attack.

[raven crater]

This exists, go to gear sets

[ruby robin]

I think he wants a global "strip active fleet gear" option

[zinc kiln]

Yes I want to take them off all ships not one at a time

It’s very slow

[undone swift]

Item to speed up Research/commissions, I don't care if it's premium one.

[raven crater]

One thing I like about Azur Lane is that you can't spend money to speed things up, it keeps it balanced for all players. An item is good but a premium one would be bad

[hearty crane]

You can use money to speed up research, it's called cubes.

[velvet adder]

i need more secretary slots

[raven crater]

I think by "speed up" he's not referring to the overall accumulation of blueprints but rather the duration of the research missions

[velvet adder]

make it so i can accept 6 daily missions in operation siren at once dunno why theres a max of 5 when there can be 5 or 6 daily missions handed out at once

[undone swift]

Easy
Get a better device

[unreal stream]

Any news if they change the 5% heal hp on this toxic siren boss...at least for corrosion lvl 6?!

[shy shard]

Dont know if anyone suggested this, but i want more skill books to be dropped from dailies

I've been bleeding dry ever since the 4th class slot opened

And i've still a bajillion skills that i'd like to lvl

Oh, i just read Z23's reminder

[merry grove]

Can we have a daily raid specifically for gold similarly to the cognitive chips ? Like Once or 3 times per day to get a moderate amount of gold depending of difficulty...

[lapis pecan]

I hope z2 skin will come on EN client too...one day

[neon kite]

It would be nice if the operation sirens missions could be picked up at any port instead of being randomly placed at 2 different ports everyday. Also please increase the amount of missions you could accept to 6 instead of 5. The current limit serves no other purpose other than wasting your time by forcing you to go back to the port after clearing up a mission, who thought this was a good idea?

[velvet adder]

Is there a possibilty of changing the way how Peter Strassers time control ability works? Her one ability which is the center of her entire design and reflection of her personality is useless at worst and a unique gimmick at best.
It disappoints me that one of the few SR ships that Iron Blood gets isn't useful at all.
I'm not asking her to be OP and nuke everything on screen but to let her have a niche of controlling time but in a way that is different to Formidable.
The idea of having her constantly slow her enemies by 8% is a good idea which could work well with let's say Odin and Bismarck because 1) Volleys are of course easier to hit and 2) their secondaries would become much more consistent. However the low amount of 8% is too little to have an impact.
Even against DD enemies who have high speed where even a small percentage of lost speed should be noticeable the difference between normal and slowed is minimal.
Therefore I would like to present the idea of making the slow stronger to maybe 20% or 25%

This could give Peter Strasser an interesting niche in helping ships do more consistent damage but not quite enabling a Shinano to always be able to hit her ryuusei torps as if the enemy speed was zero.
This should also make up for how unreliable the full stop is.

@sick hare What's the problem?

[normal vine]

@small girder what about that?

[small girder]

Sorry i thought i cancel the upload. Internet take a troll one me

One feedback btw, can you guys put the hiryuu-meta 3 times daily into notice instead of world? Kinda distracting when chatting with others

[normal vine]

if clicking in one of the four quadrants of OpSi could please stop centering the map on the harbor

[warm hare]

With the new KMS Shipgirls, up Iron Blood's Faction Technology level at least to 5, yeah they do not have many ships like the other factions, but it's kinda sad while the other factions to have 9lvl, IB to be at 4

[normal vine]

KMS also needs way more xp to the next level than the other factions

they could be up to 7 if all factions had equal progress, IIRC

[hearty crane]

KMS ships also give 2x tech (like many other minor factions). I suppose it could use a bigger overhaul, adding more minor factions.

[zinc storm]

I can ask a question why the ships of iron blood are weaker than the royal navy an example: Bismarck is weaker than hood, hipper weaker than prinz eugen if they are hermas they have to have the same characteristics is what I understand knowing that the best ships of that time for technology and weapons were those of iron blood for wed deserve an upgrade or a retrofit

[void schooner]

Bismarck weaker than Hood? I think you should have picked a better comparison to illustrate your point.

[minor robin]

Putting aside whether bisko is weaker than hood or that both hipper and eugen are ironblood (they're sister ships), how advanced or good they were in real life seldom if ever have an impact on how they are in game

[eternal bronze]

looks at Shinano

[minor robin]

And some ironblood ships (among others) were already buffed (without retros) during the recent update, which is the first time such a thing has occurred on such a major scale

And above all, we don't take suggestions for retrofits anyways

[hearty ice]

Shinano vs shouhou kai

[zinc storm]

Okay, leaving Bismarck and Hood aside, what I want is for them to do something, an improvement is the only thing I ask of the ships of iron blood and leaving the real life I only ask that a small improvement in the ships and that's it.

[minor robin]

May I refer you to these messages?

[hearty crane]

Done, Graf Zeppelin got buffed...

[zinc storm]

It is that the only improvement that was made and thank God was Graff Zeppelin but the other ships have almost nothing improved, firepower or torpedoes, I only ask that they make an improvement on the ship that there was only Graff Zeppelin that had an improvement. it means they can't do it with the other Ironblood ships do something an upgrade or a retrofit just that.

[minor robin]

This, and same with upgrades really

[sinful cloud]

So you dont take suggestions to improve the main focus of the game

[eternal bronze]

Sure alot of IB ships needs improvements, but you need to specify more on what problems the faction is facing instead of just complaining, for example look at Scharnhorst, she survived 2 operations mostly badly damaged and also sunk Glorious, Ardent and Acasta in 1939, but her skill is literally a copy and paste of pre warkai skill "Divine Marskman" and that totally kills her uniqueness in the game.

[sinful cloud]

Also wanted to say that the pause screen during a fight shouldnt make the whole screen as a big continue button
Right now having the continue button on the menu is irrelevant and this is rather annoying

[zinc storm]

hipper who is the twin of prinz eugen of the Admiral class does not have the same power and life as prinz nor life of rank S because in real life they were twins they had the same but other things did not have the same I just want Admiral hipper to have the same things that prinz his life and his power is only that.

[tough ridge]

Give it time as the dev team needs to discuss on these stuff or the amount of people agreeing to it

[zinc storm]

Thank you for telling me

[velvet adder]

hello ive just downloaded the game and id like to get a ship tierlist!!

[warm hare]

You don't need to worry about these just yet

[velvet adder]

yes, but id like to know if possible ^^

[ruby robin]

try #gameplay-help , I heard they're helpful with gameplay decisions in there

[velvet adder]

OHH thank u!!

[normal vine]

so you answered your own complaint: Eugen is stronger than Hipper, because one is SR and the other only Elite

[formal ocean]

Do you think, having VH armor plating, and few other old events equipment being available for core data or event being able to be researchable in the gear lab would be interesting ? PS, like the TBM avenger VT 18, and so the VH armor ?

[hasty mountain]

Now that we have the high efficiency item thing that gives us 2x rewards per map, we have yet another way to have more ships than dock slots. It was already possible before, but was a bit more obscure to do...
Can we keep this momentum and finally remove per-battle check of dock slots? Keep it to map start only, that gives us the opportunity to enhance ships we would be using in the map.
Checking slots per battle serves no purpose other than annoy the player

[glad flare]

Operation Siren has been fun as heck but the interface and tutorials needs a lot of polishing. Map movement and rewards collection are seriously un-intuitive

[pure gyro]

Imagine my surprise to find out fully retrofitting my lvl99 Yamashiro, actually seems to be a downgrade... 😄

[cloud sable]

now that im used to faster movement speed in op siren i cant seem to stand the slower speeds that we have on normal maps, can we get faster movement speed there too ?

[olive sapphire]

i just wanna say
this skill actually doesn't say anything about changing of piercing AP gun in to normal ammo

[blissful saddle]

Get canteen and merchant up to lv15 pls

[random path]

Is it just me that Scharnhorst don't deserve to be purple rarity?

[polar python]

History and performance is only a very rough guideline anyway for the ingame performance. Just look at the UR CV

[normal vine]

when's the announced hotfix with the mini-event going to drop, btw?

[ruby robin]

probably sometime today based on the patchnotes card they dropped

[warm hare]

Rarity doesn't always determines how good a ship is, eg Mikasa is SR but she ain't better than all the Elites ones. And not all ships get their rarity based on how well they performed irl, eg Shinano

[hasty mountain]

who's the ... that thought this shit was ok

[normal vine]

yeah, even on c4 sirens that's overkill

had one with air strike weakness and she could heal up stronger than the air strike hurt her

which is just silly

[hasty mountain]

click start battle
enemy instantly starts recovering 20k health per tick
very well thought out feature

should be changed to once per fleet, it gets a 30% heal once and that's it

[normal vine]

it currently is once per fleet, it should be once overall

[hasty mountain]

it currently is once per battle

[normal vine]

yes, one fleet = one battle

[hasty mountain]

I'm not here to discuss semantics, as long as we agree on what's the issue and what needs to be done it's fine

[normal vine]

I mean, you some times need to discuss semantics to make sure that you agree on the issue

[fierce ember]

i think we should be able to have some sort of EXP storage,so lvl capped ships can transfer that EXP to storage,and then to someone with % loss otherwise it just goes to waste

[cloud sable]

but thats exactly what lecture hall does

[fierce ember]

re read what i said,this exp

[ruby robin]

but lecture hall already does pretty much precisely what you just described, have you ever used it

[solemn citrus]

It keeps storing even on ships with 3mil

[fierce ember]

the ship herself doesnt get exp anymore bcs 3 mil is the cap and that exp is wasted even if it counts towards PR and lecture hall

[raven crater]

The 3 mil cap is the storage, that cap applies at all of the awakening thresholds 100+ and is consumed when you awaken the ship to the next 5 levels. Now the storage is full.

Anyway it's only relevant if they have plans for awakening beyond 120

[ruby robin]

yes, this would be the devs telling you to level a different ship

[cloud sable]

Can we get clarification about how reset of op siren will work btw? The EN localization mentions that exploration and progress rewards will be reset every other cycle, while CN/JP only mentions that itll be reset after a certain (unstated) time period. Also, I'm not sure if the phrase "exploration and progress rewards will be reset" implies that the stars we earn for a map will be reset, or if just the rewards we got are reset (in which we could just collect everything we earned previously again without re-grinding)
As far as I know theres been no official statement/clarification on how this will work yet.
Idk where I can ask to get clarification on the matter other than this channel

[tawny tundra]

Just out of curiousty is there any talk of hadding larger BBs into the game such as the Iowa or Yamato class of battleships?

[velvet adder]

i think now theres ultra rares in builds its only a matter of time

[arctic siren]

maybe another currency, cubes cant create weapons

[quasi merlin]

still no lite data mode?

[grave spindle]

I got like 12 Peter Strasser during this event, but no Heinrich. I hate to say it considering how generous the game usually is for rolls. but after a hundred rolls in an event you should at least be able to select a ship that'll start having a higher chance of dropping with following rolls.

[inner kite]

why this post has been deleted?

[naive cobalt]

this is not channel to complain about your bad luck
keep it to feedback

[inner kite]

understandable

[granite bluff]

@grave spindle I think they should do better just make it have pity exchange like other games so even if you fail to get certain characters after 100 pulls you can just exchange some kind of currency for the ones your missing. That or not make everything limited time only so we feel pressured to obtain characters now or wait a year+ for reruns.

[grave spindle]

Eh, I don't know about that. I mean, eventually they'll probably do a rerun then release it has one of those event things you can unlock temporarily every week or something. I am just saying like their 'Wishing Well' event where you can select certain ships to have an increased chance of dropping, only in this scenario it would activate after a certain amount of rolls, an maybe let you select a more priority chance. Not a guarantee mind you, just a increased %. The game is already pretty fair, but it is frustrating, especially for events like the 'Neptune' one awhile back where the odds of getting the said ship becomes nonexistent.

[granite bluff]

either would be acceptable to me but I know sometimes people just get tired of chasing rng and want guarantees after spending so much time or money. It may help them deal with potential errors in the gacha also since even if they somehow forgot to add a character in again you could just pity summon for it

[scenic flower]

Pretty much strange to launch the pizza rerun without new pizza events so far. As if this was the first and last pizza event at all.

[burnt perch]

same thing happened with iris event

[fierce ember]

uhh,so,after going through the event again and reading some of the suggestions i had an idea in mind that will somewhat add something new but i am not sure if i should make a detailed post on trello with example screenshots some example vids with editor or just leave it here as a dumb idea

what i was thinking is - more areal indirect mechanics that have their input in combat

1)more objectives like a fortress thing in this german event but with a variation for artillery ,and so it wont just be useless 50 dmg barrage in combat
like maybe CV objective will have its influence the areal parity thing,along with combat air raid while a artillery(bb basically) will have a barrage that actually deal dmg instead

so this will make a point in having an order of killing mobs and will provide a nice thing over map control

2)azur lane has a bigg-ass island base right?why not put a CV base or an artillery there and (as it was suggested before but just as OS feature for ports only,but put it as a global mehcanic) use it as a combat support?with the same ammo mechanic as subbs,but it will be more focused on actual equipment that you put in instead of relying on the ships,maybe even use equip as EXP fodder for enchance and level up the thing

and depending on the type+equipment you use it will be either a heavy cv/bb one time burst or like a constant buff to already deployed ships like a kashino type ships where intended to be

what i had in mind is a late-game mechanic that will be ACTUALLY LATE GAME(not like PRs ),not rely on ships so it wont get power crippled,and will worth the time investment while providing a use for that thousands of equipment that just lays around in storage as boxes to be used in it either in slots,or just as a fodder
as well as tons of +10 equips that are laying around waiting for leveled ships to be used on

3)i think we could have some sort of true mob fleets just going around,the anime showed us that azur lane truly has the mass-produced ship versions as well as the OP sirens has them in some quests and as a capture point in strongholds,so why not make use of it in the game?

like the mobs will be either an objective produced thing,or like you call on the map as an areal support,will go around the map camicaze enemy ships lowering their max health(like the hunter mode for subbs)or being a pew pew meat wall in combat if you happen to be with them in the same combat

[formal oyster]

As said above, can be like for Iris, rerun + new event afterwards.
Also has there been some optimization on Opsi ? Feels smoother than before so if it's the case, thanks for that

[real cobalt]

Okay so i saw that we can combine t2 skillbooks into t3 skillbooks which made me a little happier but will we get this feature for other items in game ie. Retro bp, gear crates, gear parts( the things used to upgrade gear)

[hearty crane]

What? The Italian stuff running thursday is the rerun, the pi,za is original???

[ruby robin]

pizza is EN-exclusive because we got the version without the branding

[orchid mulch]

How exactly are we supposed to suggest new things? i wanted to suggest an option to cancel / remove Operation Siren quests in case they are to difficult to do for the player

[raven crater]

Type !submit in #bot-spam and follow the instructions from @agile otter in DMs

[orchid mulch]

What do i do to finish it at the optional step for images and such ?

[raven crater]

Type X or anything else if you don't want to submit an image

[orchid mulch]

ok

[orchid mulch]

Well it'll be interesting to see if it appears then

[hearty crane]

#collected-feedback

[orchid mulch]

its there now

go give it some upvotes folks

Would it make sense to drop a suggestion on changing the ship class of Akagi, Kaga Ryuuhou, Chitose, Chiyoda and Shouhou ? These are currently atleast to some degree listed under the wrong ship class currently.
Akagi being a Amagi-class Retrofit, and not a Akagi-class ship,
Kaga being a Tosa-class Retrofit, and not a Kaga-class ship,
Ryuuhou being of the Ryuuhou-class of ships and not the Zuihou-class of ships,
Chitose and Chiyoda being of the Chitose-class of ships and not of the Zuihou-class of ships,
Shouhou being of the Zuihou-class of ships and not of the Shouhou-class of ships.

[polar python]

EN follows the western representation of ship class

[orchid mulch]

Which means what exactly ?

a ship is of the class it is, regardless of language i'd assume ?

[polar python]

Using Kaga/Tosa as an example. The west classifies the ship who got laid down first as the "eldest sister", which was Tosa. But in Japan, Kaga(BB) was planned before Tosa, that's why it's the Kaga-class to them.

https://twitter.com/AzurLane_EN/status/1252296060464054273 The official twitter have already chosen this hill

Azur Lane Official (@AzurLane_EN)

Historically, Tosa is known as a Kaga-class battleship in Japan. However, in the west, it is known as a Tosa-class battleship. Therefore, we have decided to represent Tosa as a Tosa-class battleship in Azur Lane.

[orchid mulch]

so what about the Zuihou class being completely wack ?

[polar python]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chitose-class_aircraft_carrier

[orchid mulch]

I am assuming this is the same case for Akagi as well then ?

[polar python]

Not sure about Akagi's case, but checking the wiki showed that her class and type is "none", probably why they went with her own unique class

anyway at the end of the day the officials are aware of the discrepancy but have already chosen this hill to die upon

[orchid mulch]

Wikipedia states " Though she was laid down as an Amagi-class battlecruiser, Akagi was converted to an aircraft carrier while still under construction" in regards to Akagi

but yea class none

but a retrofitted ship is still of the same class it originated right ? even if the retrofit turns it into a completely different ship type, the hull it self is the same ?

[orchid mulch]

Wouldn't this mean as i said that Chitose and Chiyoda should be of the Chitose-class ?

[polar python]

looks like you're right about the chitose chiyoda. this is one occurrence of them following the jp classification instead, since chitose chiyoda is zuihou-class in japan.

[orchid mulch]

man they sure like it confusing in Japan

[hearty crane]

Why do we get 4 blue and 4 yellow books for Pizzeria... but 3 red? When red are the most important one of all?

[pure gyro]

My dislike for the [Ramming] mechanic in its current state can not be measured. The rest of the game I rather enjoy. 🙂 Sure some minor issues like why were aviation battleship retrofits added when they feel more like debuffs aside from Hyuuga's due to her skills saving her somewhat. While the makeshift band-aid from the developers was to add some additional sea planes to try lessening the downgrade, instead of addressing the ships skills or lack thereof which suffer the most. Or just allow secondary guns to still be equip but change seaplanes into a triggered skill that each aviation battleship acquires upon converting into one from a battleship. Again small issues I see here and there. But [Ramming]... pure hatred.

[narrow sage]

I guess there wasn'ta anything that could be done about Hornet's pizza skin?

[normal vine]

@naive cobalt is there already a card to consolidate the two OpSi world maps?

[naive cobalt]

[normal vine]

to merge the world map to look at everything, and the world map to move somewhere into one

[naive cobalt]

don't believe it was suggested, no

[mossy sluice]

Name sorting in Dock please.

And make checkbox "fleets front" its annoing that they first where they didnt needed and they didnt grouped in skill learning

[fierce ember]

not sure if this also goes to feedback
but KMS and IJN really need some neat NEW things in the gear lab,bcs as of now IJN just has old things in there and next to now top tier stuff,while KMS doesnt even have a torp loader,just rainbow mag torps

HMS got like HALF of top tier items in the update
the wyvern,torp mount,the red sub torp,sea hornet

while as of USS its tigercat and the helldiver.mk2 and the skypirate but its outscaled by wyvern

meanwhile KMS and IJN is just that old rainbow torp that now can be mass-crafted somewhat and other old stuff

[naive cobalt]

Sorry, but I can't not ask an obvious question:

So?

[fierce ember]

imagine,i have the same question,i am still confused how did they not come up with anything new for these two factions

[naive cobalt]

No, like
So what?
Equipment is sorted into nations for easier navigation.
There's no "goal" nor point in every nation getting certain amount of equipment with every update or in general.
There's only like 3 cases when nation's equipment matters and one of them is Graf Zep who actually got a new BiS plane with this update.

[fierce ember]

i am more interested in to the faction-related mechanics that are implemented in to equipment and history behind it then the fact that equip is related to a faction
and there ARE some interesting stuff that could be done
aka the best examples that where in the game are the covering torp bombers that no faction had before besides IJN
the Hoaming torps for HMS
and the switching mechanic for douglas TBD from USS
more of these faction effects wouldnt hurt
does it explain?

[real cobalt]

Restart i saw that we got the ability to upgrade the skill books to t3. Would you happen to know anything about us getting that for other items?

[naive cobalt]

I wouldn't, no

Unless it's in #game-news - we have no idea about any new stuff coming or being planned

[raven crater]

Patch notes look nice, seems like you all are already implementing some of the feedback. Much appreciated!

[lilac anvil]

thank you for the plan to add the chat filter for 'Ashes' in the upcoming MT.
Soon, finally can get rid of the invitation spams when unnecessary 👍

hopefully the filter is default

[terse epoch]

Give us a PC port

[terse epoch]

Sorry!

[thick pine]

Any chance that the ship filtering can be refined? BC and CVL being options would be nice

[gritty bay]

Petition for Yostar to let us equip azuma's gun to Heavy Cruisers like Drake, Prinz Heinrich, and Deutschland since they're also large cruisers

[normal vine]

wow, people seem to be weirdly okay with Sirens being able to heal back from 30 to 45% faster than you can deal that much damage

@gritty bay check #collected-feedback

[raven crater]

Just deal damage faster

[normal vine]

fuck off with that "git gud" bullshit

[raven crater]

I mean, that's why people are downvoting it

[normal vine]

when she can heal back in 15 seconds what it takes a full fleet of 120s to deal over the entire battle, shit's fucking broken - and she can do that as many times as she likes

[raven crater]

Seems like other people aren't encountering that issue

[junior escarp]

it is hard, because OS is supposed to be hard content. That's the only hard boss, and they shouldn't change her

[willow wolf]

+50% vanguard damage with +50% firepower is equally brutal on the player.
I think the issue here is that, among siren boss buffs, there are a select few that end up being terminally difficult compared to others.
So your difficulty is entirely based on an RNG roll where, imo, boss difficulty should be roughly equal. (not easier, but equal).

[junior escarp]

that isn't a problem, you can go to port unlimited times and heal. So, even if you get nuked you can do it over and over again

[fierce ember]

i think our main 3 stats in OS should interract with sirens passives to maybe turn off one of them,or nerf them,bcs as of now,AGAIN,we have no use for those stats after they go over the top as well as some combinations are just unfair,straight up

[willow wolf]

The other issue that could happen is, due to a combination of buffs, the healing consistently outpaces the maximum damage done, completely halting any progress on that boss.
25% healed every time they go below 30% can absolutely stop some players from killing a boss they otherwise would have no issue killing.
Game being unwinnable again due to RNG.

There's always the argument of "If you use the meta then the (problem) isn't a problem."
Building a game to require a specific loadout, fleet composition, or strategy to be the only way of success is poor game design.
Even moreso in a mobile gacha where you then ask "what is the point of all these ships, skills, and gear if I'm only ever going to be able to use the same few ships and gear?" when, in actuality, any decently fitted, leveled, and coordinated fleet should be capable of doing it.

[velvet adder]

yeah the people that vote those changes down usually do have some superiority complex over other gamers who cant beat it and use that as an excuse to laugh at them usually "i farmed and spent thousands of hours at this game to kill it why shouldnt you" when theres natural power creep anyway

[junior escarp]

for the 3 stats, having them over 200 is basically having safe mode in OS, so it a lot easier, they have a use. For combinations problems, they are hard (i'm not saying it's easy), but you don't even need meta ships, and i'm saying this on my own experience. Using meta ships is something I don't like to do, and being able to clear OS without meta ships is something you can do. Healing boss needs it's own strategy, and you can go to port and even change fleet if needed. It is HARD, but not IMPOSSIBLE

I don't have a superiority complex, it is HARD for me as well, but claiming that it is impossible is another thing

[velvet adder]

The problem is that you cannot go to port and change them if its a rainbow siren coordinate (as far as i know) since youre told once you enter you cannot leave, meaning that for some people they literally cannot beat these bosses and essentially become a waste

[junior escarp]

then you should try before in Strongholds where you actually can go back and forth and try different stuff until you can do everything, then try r6 loggers where you can't do that

[velvet adder]

i know its supposed to be endgame content and all but requiring 5 ryuusei ark royal strat is a dumb thing to be needed

[junior escarp]

who said you need ark royal?

[velvet adder]

where even things like dev 30 fdg monarch etc "anti siren" ships cant scratch them

[raven crater]

I refuse to use Ark Royal on principle and can do everything fine, fwiw (So I'm seconding this)

[junior escarp]

that's why im telling you this, my fdg is dev15 and my ark royal is lvl100, I'm not using meta ships, but I've been able to clear that siren

[velvet adder]

im just saying that that ability is busted compared to the rest especially on siren loggers

some of the others are bad in combination but that one is on a whole level on its own

[junior escarp]

yeah it is hard compared to all others (only in loggers), but it's the only hard boss. that's why i think they shouldn't do anything to it

[velvet adder]

i guess there will always be the people who want the game to be dark souls difficulty and those who want it to be a casual gacha

[willow wolf]

META should make things easier, not be the only possible route. This game would be better off adhering to this in PvE environments.

A lot of players just want to turn this into an auto-simulator with the most powerful ships and gears, which is fine.
Not everyone has the time or drive to do that.

Or in some cases (myself included) abhor the idea of following a guide on how you "must" play.

[junior escarp]

I can't auto neither Strongholds or Loggers. I HAVE TO play manual in both. But META is not the only way to do anything in this game

Saying that, Im not even using 120 ships in some cases and still, being able to clear anything

[raven crater]

I actually prefer that there is at least some content that needs to be done manually, it makes it more like a game and less like a clicker

[thick pine]

I've never felt truly gated by any combination of skills that Sirens have had, including that 5% heal every few seconds. If you feel like these fights need to be nerfed because they make you feel like you need to use better ships, then I'm going to say that they shouldn't be nerfed so that these powerful ships have a reason to be powerful and I can justify using them. And I don't think Bismarck or Prinz Eugen are usually considered as some of the stronger ships in this game. There need to be strong enemies somewhere in this game so that there's something to aim towards when developing fleets or new ships. EX fights in events don't really provide that because they don't have a reward worth improving for, unless you really want to stroke your e-peen. Siren bosses do have rewards worth improving for.
Also, give us an item in OS that spawns the old "No Shikikan buffs" Siren Stronghold as a new, higher difficulty with even more rewards you cowards!

[raven crater]

Stronghold with 999 value enemy tunings 👀

[fierce ember]

"they have a use" no they are not,when a player has 500+ of them,what is the use of that?and shops are filled with that bloat
after the initial power cap on the strongest enemy they are just useless

[pure gyro]

Out of pure curiosity, why did Graf Zeppelin not get her 3rd skill. Speaking in which of a variation of Zeppy's [Taste My Wrath!] skill. Heck, even just that skill just a little better. Graf Zeppelin has 4 guns mounted on her rigging that look like the one Zeppy is holding.

[humble ruin]

I dont know if this has been addressed yet but Mikasa's Z Flag is still unobtainable by players that weren't around during the first run

[normal vine]

it IS a problem when you don't manage to get the boss past 30% because she ends the battle with more HP than she started with every time that happens

[burnt perch]

it's an endless cycle if your fleet can't do enough damage

[faint hinge]

They probably should block certain combinations from being able to spawn together

To trim off the edge situations where you just get stalled

[normal vine]

that's also why I'm asking for a way to kick strongholds off the map without having to fully clear them - because I have one blocking part of the map with a heal (and heal-to-damage, yay) boss
I don't care about rewards, I just want it gone so I can progress and get at the dailies and other stuff that are piling up behind it

[faint hinge]

yeah I have like 4 quests stuck behind strongholds that I can't clear

[stone cargo]

Again. Its not “unexpected” when it happens every time. At this point “unexpected” would be if the maint worked on first try. Im saying this for over 2 years. The maintanances are the weakest point of azur lane as a whole and this has to get adressed. The way maintanances are handled is absolutely pathetic and horrible. Can something about that change already? Make less of them and do them properly if its that difficult

[hearty crane]

Less of them is less events. We really dont want that.

[scenic flower]

I want that. Coz of events and now OPSI I can't clear both the normal and hard mode campaign, can't farm SOS missions, can't farm the archives. This sucks.

[hearty crane]

We got a week of basically nothing now, and pizza is campaign only, kinda forcing one there till the event.

[warm needle]

why remove the option for fleet select in OPSi at the bottom left of the screen? that was a very convenient feature not needing to scroll over a big map and find the other fleet

[rare jay]

It is currently being looked into by staff as a bug. Please do wait for them to figure it out

[hearty crane]

I personally prefer the "move per 3 days" over the non-clean finish, but my own suggestion would still be to always spawn strongholds ONLY on secured zones, 100% unfuckable. But seeing those puzzles, maybe the developers dont want that and love screwing their userbase intentionally...

[naive cobalt]

#bug-reports

[crystal sequoia]

Please make siren strongholds as if they are EX/Hard stages in OPsi. That will help players that don't want/can't finish stronghold, while also allowing them to have access to the maps that are otherwise obscured by that red whirl.

[stone cargo]

Can the maintanances be please less of them but higher quality? This is just horrible. Every week game broken for 1 day because noone cares about state of maints even when its been told multiple times for last 2+ years. It hurts the game’s image as a whole. Imagine you are new player and the devs break something in game every week cuz of being unprofessional its just so stupid. This is literally the biggest letdown of the game. The maints. Its every week “unexpected issues” and every week something that worked before is broken and when it gets hotfixed then new maint and all over

[naive cobalt]

No
Also you already said that

[stone cargo]

Yes I did and nothing changed for past 2 years

What is feedback for if noone listens to it

[naive cobalt]

Your feedback is

1. Don't cause unexpected issues and
2. Don't update your game
   It's not a feedback anyone can "listen to"

[stone cargo]

No the feedback is to increase quality over quantity and to do a simple test before running it live

[naive cobalt]

So please save yourself and us time and stop repeating same thing

[stone cargo]

If it wasnt broken every single week for 2years that would save lot more time tho

[hearty crane]

Feedback is just that, its not a bindable requirement. And sometimes they do listen to bad feedback... cough siren weather tower loot message cough. And even good ideas take time to implement or may not vibe with the devs goal (or outside the games scope) etc. Etc.

[naive cobalt]

Also, again, "don't cause unexpected issues" is feedback on the level of "just don't have bugs"
Good intention, but useless

So please, stop ranting about same issue, it's not something that's going to change
Updates won't happen less often

[stone cargo]

It was told countless times how to improve technical quality of this game over the years but its difficult when en feedback doesnt even get to devs since there is deaf useless ppl who only act mighty with having different color of name instead of doing their job

[naive cobalt]

Mixing insults into your feedback also won't help your cause. That goes for every time you leave your feedback because there's a lot of it.
Keep it civil or I'll have to "do my job" as you put it.

[stone cargo]

Ok keep making the game unplayable every single week then its apperently intended bussiness plan. Sorry for caring about the state of game wont do that mistake ever again and will just silently sit there in apathy while the game is broken until its another maint so something else is broken instead.

[hasty mountain]

What's the point of the red ports in the map? At least let them repair ships, the permanently empty supply shop when you open them is completely useless

[hearty crane]

I assume somewhere down the line we swap Azur Lane with Crimson Axis.

[thick pine]

Groom was changed back to Commander on marriage certificates. How disappointing.

Also, being told that maintenance has been poorly handled for 2 years is valid feedback. It tells you which area of development or management needs to improve.
If the game is still littered with bugs after a maintenance on multiple occasions, clearly more effort needs to be put into debugging during maintenance to ensure a less problematic finish. Speak to those members of the team to see what can be done differently to accomplish that.

[ruby robin]

pretty sure commander is at least slightly more gender-neutral

[warm hare]

Maybe if people weren't in such a rush and not being a pressure for the devs, they might as well could have done things on time. Its not like their job is easy, one small problem can make another in the process, its like the devs want to extend their work and be under even more pressure to fix the problems, in the end they solve the main ones and listen to the feedback to fix the rest of them after a while, and from what I saw, they added some things from the #game-feedback, so its not like they dont listen to that

[naive cobalt]

Also, being told that maintenance has been poorly handled for 2 years is valid feedback.
There's difference between voicing your grievances with certain (valid) issues that the game has and ranting in extremely aggressive manner, providing very basic feedback ("just do updates less often") and then acting even more aggressive when updates are not, in fact, done less often.

Also groom was changed to commander very long time ago

If it changed back recently - it's an issue that got fixed, nothing more

[thick pine]

"An issue that got fixed", in this case, is an issue I wish wasn't fixed, hence why I'm disappointed in that.
Also, not everyone is going to be capable of constructive criticism or genuine suggestions on how to improve an issue. Sometimes, they will only be able to point out the issue, and depending on how frustrated they are by it, will add extra emotion to it. As someone receiving feedback, even these simple forms of complaints should have something you can take and use to improve the game with.

[iron pebble]

It takes a professional to know how to deal with feedback

[naive cobalt]

Also, not everyone is going to be capable of constructive criticism or genuine suggestions on how to improve an issue
yes, and they still can do it in civil manner

[raven crater]

+1 to changing groom to commander

Kind of weird to be the "groom" for a mutsuki class ship

[iron pebble]

No point in arguing about this in an echo chamber. The whole localisation is done by people who have different views from the playerbase.

[normal vine]

can we move Port to the left of that group?

UI CONSISTENCY, people, goddamnit

[shut harbor]

Doesn't make sense they needed to change where that button sat in the first place, on top of it moving the Storage, Information, and Fleet details buttons being moved over for it when it shows up.

It'd be better if it just loaded straight into the port when we move onto those tiles rather than us needing to tap to enter it. Also remove the port "loading screen" since it just wastes time.

[normal vine]

but they had to move that button because Fleet Lock is now sitting there, you see

[vast hazel]

Hey, we get the apologems so I appreciate the maintenance if it means I get closer to buying a ring every hour I can’t play

[agile gazelle]

Removing the Hiryuu Meta boss links from world chat was a mistake
Cause now there's none at all in any chat

[hearty crane]

It might be you need to load OPS to spawn them now, but my all is still filling up to the brink. Need more trying.

[candid phoenix]

idk about you I get more commanders to attack my hiryuu after the update

[pure gyro]

I have sent out 2 request for aid and still only have had 1 join. So it looks like its going to be a hit or miss on if you actually get help.

The constant leveling of the boss past what your fleet can honestly handle is a bit of a poor choice past a certain point. On my own I can handle a level 6 boss and kill it before the time runs out maybe level 7. Since level 12 it just turned into me being annoyed with the fights. As it will take me a couple hundred oil to finally take the boss down. Usually due to never getting more then 1 person to assist in the fight. Like my current lvl15 boss. I am now almost 2 hours in and its not even to half life......

[neat stump]

any chance we could get an option to skip the "victory screen" and damage score after each battle? or, at least, make it disappear byt itself after some seconds, without needing to click "continue" ?

[stone cargo]

We dont get apologems even tho the game was playable 5 hours after maint officialy was supposed to end

[pure gyro]

Oh look, I managed 31k before my fleet got deleted from the lvl15 boss fight. Only 500k more to go... 😄

[raven crater]

You should try not using 3 DDs

[pure gyro]

Well, when they are my strongest ships I am a little limited on what I can use. As my others which are not over 100 die even faster. 😄

[raven crater]

Then it sounds like you need to raise some more ships

It's not supposed to be easy

[pure gyro]

I am not asking for it to be easy. I would simply suggest giving the player the option to raise the level of the boss.

As being forced to fight a boss 25 levels higher then your fleet seems a bit much.

As to your suggestion to level more ships. Thats what I have been doing. I usually only do the boss fights for the points then go back to leveling.

[vast hazel]

Didn’t we get promised 100 gems?

[raven crater]

We in fact got 100 gems

[stone cargo]

Oh got it now. Wasnt still there until recently. Nice

[hearty crane]

It's supposed to be a raid. Also if nobody helps just ask again if the 30m run out. You can keep asking till eventually it'll be beat. You're not supposed to fight all of it yourself

[pure gyro]

@hearty crane Yes I am aware of that. I have sent out 3.

[inland creek]

what's the point of this confirm button

[pure gyro]

I appreciate the addition of the notification of the guild quest completion heads up. That was really needed. 😄

[hearty crane]

It's there for all the levels that you haven't maxed? As you may have noticed, they like to keep around UI elements to make it easier (like that ugly SOS missions on the battle screen)

[inland creek]

wdym the levels i havent maxed

clicking the confirm button does absolutely nothing

[hearty crane]

It does if you haven't MLB'ed girls.

[hasty mountain]

when I went to sort my ships by stat, I noticed there's no option to sort by oil cost

[thin turret]

i wish you could fight non-100% hp hiryuu's from other players

[scenic flower]

I'd like to exit from the OPSI scan mode at the same place, when I started it. I mean, move the button to the upper right side, please.
Also, make the PORT button more visible and move it to the left side. And make it visible whether our fleets are already in the port or just somewere on the map (if the map is clear, of course).
Another inconvenient thing is when you cleared the map and left it, then left the OPSI, then returned, you cannot start the other map, because you have to return to the map that you already finished, and leave it again. TF is this for?

[deep sorrel]

Northern Parliament and Iris Libre in Gear Labs when?

[ornate basin]

okay, you do not need to send this issue in 2+ channels and continue to spam waiting for a response between all 3

[naive cobalt]

if you wish to share feedback - please do so instead of posting random screenshots and then spamming emotes

[split dirge]

So can i get my answer now?

[naive cobalt]

you didn't ask anything, so no

and if you have questions about the game - please direct them to #gameplay-help

[split dirge]

And you, can i get my answer now? You saw my post on other channel right?

[split dirge]

I don't think the in-game content can't be finished there

[naive cobalt]

Ok so I guess you don't have any feedback
Please stop with off-topic messages here

[split dirge]

Ok, here

What's the point of changing skill names and descriptions if there aren't any improvements?

[naive cobalt]

How would we know? We aren't devs. Especially not Kawaa.

[split dirge]

Hhhh

I add this question, If have to, why don't all the gear that has the skills change the name and description?

[naive cobalt]

Answer stays the same

We aren't devs
We don't know

[split dirge]

Yes, I'm waiting for something else

[hearty crane]

No skills change from enhancing. You already know from other posts this was the old name and description (before fixes to be clearer). So what's the issue?

[raven crater]

I think he's just doesn't think the skill text should change at all between +10 and +11 even if it's functionally the same

[split dirge]

Why change the skill name and description at +11? Make it clear or deceiving? Isn't it better to change from the beginning (+10 and lower)?

[toxic sail]

you can send your concerns about that as feedback through belfast bot

[ornate basin]

try turning your question into direct feedback

otherwise we cant help

[naive cobalt]

also it sounds more like a bug/text issue

[split dirge]

Yeah maybe bug very2 bug ||The most obvious bugs from the upgrade to the description ||

[fierce ember]

dude at least a bug doesnt nerf guns dps after AN UPGRADE

i would like to see more planes like that that switch in to a stronger version after the condition is met,there are a couple more history examples from IJN and USS that could fit
any info on that?or devs just dumped that concept

[split dirge]

First time? Since they changing the caliber of Shinden Kai I think that concept has been lost, hahaha

Or maybe it has been around for a long time, but I only know is Shinden Kai

[hearty crane]

The Shinden was bugged, actual stats didn't match description/intention. It's more like ASW bombers apparently losing damage on +11 so to 'fix' that they made it just use +10 weapon on 11 instead. Intentional? Probably not but who knows.

[split dirge]

Ah, I just remembered that they also changed some gun mods like 155 HE to HE +

Idk for sure that's for balance changes or what, Still it won't enter the notice, coz for what? Useless to other kno, They don't even include small details in notice about OPs, we have to look to CN and JP to know the details, Very ENs

[ornate basin]

I think this conversation can be moved elsewhere

[arctic siren]

Suggestion: you get extra guild contribution if your ship gets picked as a support for another skk who did guild raid

Example: 10 ppl picked your Helena for support, so you get (10*???) extra guild contribution

[raven crater]

I kind of see that causing some strife within guilds when some people's support gets picked over others (or if you just don't want to use anyone's support and therefore don't lead to anyone getting contribution)

[arctic siren]

I mean, that promotes others to use good units instead of something like 120 amagi with no gears

[raven crater]

I mean, people should be doing that anyway just to help their guild members. I feel like this would make guild too try hard and be very exclusionary to newer players that may not be able to contribute level 120 top tier ships.

[gloomy ingot]

More shipgirl have live2d pls

[velvet adder]

bache l2d

[hidden bear]

I feel like that if there were more daily attempts for players to help others bring down META characters, the request board wouldn't flood the chat so much.

So if we could get 6 Daily Attempts and cut the amount of crystals players get by half to compensate, I think it'd go far to reducing the boss aid spam in chat a little.

[crystal sequoia]

Because wasting 1 hour on showdown dailies isn't time consuming enough , let's add some additional stuff while diluting the rewards.

[merry grove]

can the guild shop reset every day? So much guild tokens but can't spend much because it only resets every 3 days

[scenic flower]

Too much sync points needed for MLB Hiryuu META. I'm an active player, but it seems I won't make it in time. Not because I don't have enough of them, but because of cap 200 per day. If you skipped some days of farming, there is no chance, that you will make it.

[hidden bear]

Most people can't do 500k damage in one run... Limiting people to just 3 clears daily to help out other people is way too small to clear out the amount of requests.

And they balanced the rewards already so that people wouldn't get Hiryuu META in only a week.

So something has to give if chat is to be cleaned up, so time will unfortunately have to be the factor.

[thick pine]

200 per day? You get 375 per Stage15 host, which you can do twice a day. Then you get up to 75 per fight you assist with, which can be done 3 times a day. That's up to 975 per day.

[scenic flower]

I mean, 200 Ashes coordinates. 975 pts per day is still not enough, coz we need at least 25K.

[thick pine]

Assuming you can get 975 per day, that'd take 26 days to do. As of today, you still have 2 months until Hiryuu Meta leaves.

Assuming you don't assist anyone and only complete your own hosts, that'd be 34 days, getting 750 per day

[scenic flower]

We'll get the OPSI reset after 2 weeks. And a new META ship, I assume. If we'll do Hiryuu, we'll delay with the new ship research, and that won't end ever.

[thick pine]

When you tap on the Ashes Showdown, it displays the date range at the top left. 2020.12.22 - 2021.3.18

[scenic flower]

If you go to the global map, you will see, that the OPSI resets in 15 days.

[thick pine]

Which I assume refers to shops, missions, Siren Strongholds etc. in OPSI, while the date range within Ashes Showdown refers to how long Hiryuu Meta can be fought.
There are rewards going all the way up to 70k. There wouldn't be a point to any of them if we couldn't even reach MLB Hiryuu Meta before switching to the next boss.

[elfin zealot]

Regarding the Siren Strongholds:

Are they all the same level or do they differ

[scenic flower]

Why won't they just synchronize things then? Why they confuse people?

[hearty crane]

Are other people confused? The times are displayed clearly.
And all strongholds are 124-128

[pure gyro]

So I am playing mission 8-2, just started level. I move my second fleet to wanted tile and stop. I then click to change back to first fleet and then I watched as a plane ambush triggers and hits my second fleet which has been on said tile for several seconds now. Well alright. XD

[austere vapor]

just a suggestion, add a way to enhance gear multiple times by adding a slider or a +/- button. The UI would also show the amount of resources needed for the total upgrade

[willow wolf]

#collected-feedback message
I made a trello card for it including a plane that upgrades for the IJN, if you want to read it.

[fierce ember]

thanks
i also remember a reddit thread about fully explaned IJN planes with interesting mechanics and history behind it that could be also added,if i find it i might link it in this comment

i just overall feel like the game needs more of those effects,not just ijn(as thet usually have trash bomb placement and focus on speed so noone will use them and the interesting part will be just forgotten,so if other major factions get those effects they might not get forgotten and be used later),instead of just relying on pure bombs and stats

[fierce ember]

suggestion for OS
i think we need to have more weekly activities as one stronghold per week is just a joke,as well as a fact the AP lays unused bcs clearing maps for 5* is not worth it that much,and dailies dont take that much AP is the entry is always halved,and you get 4 quests at best that are out of ports
all i can think of is increase the cap for strongholds per week and make them spawn mid-week as well as add something for lower level players that cant clear the stronghold,so newbies have something to do,while older players can just no brain through it

[velvet adder]

can we make it easier to click on NY city? this is the second time now that ive entered this shit map cos the "enter map" goes directly over the city

[cloud sable]

just dont ever complete that map so you dont waste any extra ap each time you misclick 🧠

[velvet adder]

[hasty mountain]

now that we have the fleet lock button, could we get the options for auto-battle and auto-sub on the tactics side menu as well? or at least the auto-sub one, since you can just enable auto in-battle and it will remember for the next battles, which doesn't happen with subs

[velvet adder]

#known-bugs message its a known bug, hopefully theyll fix it and just replace the parts or something

[vast berry]

Petition for the new twin 127mm purple US DD gun to be available as map drop in the next new USN event.

[random path]

I think I prefer the perma Meta Ship to grind and we just need choose from one of the Meta that are available. Having to grind with a deadline is kinda forceful for me(if ever). Yes, the deadline may be long but are just going to left the newer players that are already so behind?

[void schooner]

Being new to a game has its pitfalls, yes.

Not much anyone can do about that. But who's to say that this is the only time Hiryuu Meta will be available?

[random path]

Maybe after four 3 months cycle

[velvet adder]

an option for just restarting a map on operation siren without moving to a dock and then moving back maybe something like "The map is safe! do you wish to restart it!"

[slate monolith]

Who knows it might be just to introduce the 4 one at a time, and then it's a roulette of which META will drop for you after all four have their individual moment in the spotlight

[devout sand]

To the person who creates the patch notes for social media: the usage of "contents" (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Erm8ew7W8AEqRA0?format=jpg) has always been incorrect. "Contents" is used to specifically refer to the innards of something, what is contained inside or is within something (i.e. contents of a box). When describing the material/substance itself, the word is uncountable (like sand, rice, etc.), so "content" is correct (i.e. new content, content of a poem). This is rather pedantic but I have seen "contents" increasingly being misused by people within the Yostar community so I feel like a correction is long overdue. I am not bashing but instead suggesting a correction as I understand the difficulty of the nuances of a non-native language as I am a non-native English speaker myself.

[naive cobalt]

@hearty crane Please keep your comments to actual feedback

[hearty crane]

It IS feedback? Why can everyone else talk about the shipcycles but if I do it gets deleted?

[naive cobalt]

No, sharing what ships you missing is not feedback nor is it relevant here

[hearty crane]

Just offering 2 examples. You can swap with any other since it takes a year+ for ANY ships to rerun

Welcome to every single event ever. I started playing in 2020, no [insert Ashen here] for me. [A ship] refused to drop, a year wait it is. Why would META be excluded? Even for pure grind we have Lil Lusty, U-110, Princeton, etc. Etc. Etc.

[naive cobalt]

And this comment doesn't address or responds to existing feedback (because it's not about event) nor is it a feedback in itself, so please refrain from off-topic comments here.

[hearty crane]

Seeeing META ships have a limited 3 month duration, are they not basically a mini-event? (The 1 month OPS duration for permanent content put that in a flaky situation)

[naive cobalt]

If you want to be EXTREMELY technical about definition of event - I guess, but it works completely differently so any comparison and technicality isn't useful.
Events can have limited ships WHILE OpS lets you choose which too farm and it's not mutually exclusive in any way.

[hearty crane]

OPS does not though. And there is no indication it'll ever let you "chose who to farm for"

[naive cobalt]

Ye, that's why they suggesting to be able to. This is feedback channel, not "current features that exist in the game"

[hearty crane]

Fair enough, I just think the argumentation "because it locks out new players" is very weak when every event locks out players for over a year, seemingly longer than META ever will. That was the point of my post.

[naive cobalt]

One could make argument that event ships will get archived at some point while META won't unless they change how it works, for example making you able to choose which one to farm, but that's tangential at this point

[random path]

[pure gyro]

Ikazuchi's drop chance on 8-2 is lower then Z1's. Any particular reason why a Rare has a lower drop rate then an Elite?

[naive cobalt]

We don't know drop rates or how are they decided. And if you wish to complain about your luck, this is not a place for this.

[pure gyro]

@naive cobalt It was a question, as for my second comment it was due to humor as another one dropped. Not a complaint. If they want to give me more Z1's and make my enhancing easier across the board for my DD's then alright.

[naive wind]

Show which shipgirl is about to launch its torps/airstrike/guns in the buttons

The torp sign in the shipgirls helps but doesnt tell which one is about to shoot(unless youve memorizes the order)
This helps us avoid using strong torps or airstrike against weaker ships

[mild anchor]

About the specialized core if it could exchange for resources like oil, coins, or small amount of cubes(if that possible) That might be good. because some commander include me already have both warspite and sandy retrofited and also fully limit break shinano. I have around 4k core and I don't know what to do with it while watching it stacking up day by day.

[arctic siren]

Just exchange for URins and wait for the next UR

[obsidian spear]

add more Dorm design Saves

[scenic flower]

And at least 2 more floors. No bonuses, just sandbox for experiments or for fun.

[hearty crane]

^ special note not to do this. You can get an infinite amount of URs per month and they take dockspace if you exchange them. Only pull URs if you need them, dont unnecessarily overpopulate your dock. Thus ends this public service announcement (not feedback but I dont want new players to make a mistake based on above post)

[fierce ember]

i thought of that as well,but i think best for it would be exchange it for PR prints,as it more or less related to it
but the real question is balancing this out
as i am pretty sure devs thought to fully limit the amount of cubes we get per month,so matts wont really work

[narrow sage]

there are a few ships that tend to be left in the ether for a while; to date there's been no other sign of Kimbery or Mullany. That also brings to mind the lack of skin mini-event reruns as of late and a couple of skins seemingly lost forever (Desucland's Dark princess skin which was part of Divergent chessoard and was put in the core shop only in CN, and Gridley's X-mas skin whose mini-event never got reran unlike Ooshio's or Wabaka's)

[lethal solstice]

stupid question, will there be a version to run native on pc?

[ornate basin]

first off, this channel is not a help desk
two, looking at your question like its feedback, it has been suggested to have a pc client

[shut harbor]

There's still way too much dialogue from TB in OPSI. After doing enough runs in fractured seas and strongholds we already know what's happening. It's incredibly annoying and repetitive to have her pop up every time there's an ambush we know about, an encounter, the weather control, a newly spawned enemy, meowfficer scavenging and loot, especially pawn's communication channel scanning, etc. I constantly have to go back and forth from where I want to tap/click and to the top right just to skip whatever's being said for the millionth time.

I'd prefer it if her dialogue could be a toggle to stop her showing up at all. If anything, the only time I'd want her to show up is when I need to skip over a puzzle so I don't waste my time. And for that point I'd want the option to do it immediately.

[olive sapphire]

I really like skins like this
can you put the skin in the shop. I don't care with golds or gems, I'll buy them

[raven crater]

He's not suggesting a new skin, he's suggesting that the existing weapon skin crates be readily obtainable year-round

[velvet adder]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

i just saw skin suggestions so i did that

[ornate basin]

you misinterpreted it

[velvet adder]

sorry den

back to lurking i go

[fierce ember]

was it suggested before to add some sort of vault for medals/trophies from events that where added to WA that would open(basically releasing a quest chain to do some WA grind) sometimes letting players get those things after initial run?
or its clearly stated that those things will be unique rewards

[narrow sage]

you must not have seen the usual EN player then.

[fierce ember]

can we please not have debuffing effects UNDER the enemy nodes that you cant clearly see bcs of the SAID ENEMY COVERING THE NODE

[scenic flower]

Also, the napalm traps, that cover a lot of cells around the trapped fleet, are doing too much damage. You can pass it only with 30% HP left. Even when we passed the flame, it still makes damage.

[fierce ember]

and i can only dream about pathing AI avoiding the traps and not just collecting them all

[raven crater]

Just open those last and then exit the area via the Exit button or moving another fleet onto the teleporter

[scenic flower]

How should I know if it's a trap or not? There is a lot of locations like that in the same map.

[raven crater]

It asks you to confirm before opening it, unlike the regular ones.

[scenic flower]

okaaay

[stone valley]

maybe... can we make the frame smaller?

[random path]

It would be nice if Littorio, Bismarck, Washington and etc... has their barrage rework and be more devastating like Richy and Nyagato as flagships. Or a Queen Elizabeth retro.

[void schooner]

How much more devastating are we talking? Even if the devs were to take your feedback into consideration, you leave a lot of up to interpretation since you're not being very specific.

[stark narwhal]

can we have an option to shut TB up entirely?

[raven crater]

Someone should actually submit this as formal feedback instead of just complaining about it here

Did a quick search for tb in #collected-feedback but nothing came up

[velvet adder]

im sure others would like it if its possible but maybe ingame player trading? maybe 4 like cubes and coins?

[void schooner]

Pretty sure it's been stated that trading of any kind is off the table because of how easy it would be to abuse.

[velvet adder]

ahh never saw that

[void schooner]

Can't flex on the less fortunate if trading became a thing as well. Possibly the main reason it may never happen.

[still birch]

trading = people would make farm accounts and funnel resources to their main

[velvet adder]

[ornate basin]

yes we do not take feedback on trading systems, we do not have it written anywhere anymore though

[velvet adder]

well, its good to know

[winter escarp]

Your events just to get special items is going too far more and more with each event passes, you demand 24/7 gameplay so people spend oil or something? Did you ever think a lot of people simply lack time of day to properly do these events?

And I. Was using the double drop items for this event, it’s the only reason. I got to buy a few more things vs last few events

[void schooner]

Time management aside, you took the 5 elite cats over the coins. Can't say that was a great choice.

[undone swift]

Can we reconsider permadeath?

[south sequoia]

Just wanna point out, the Oriani-class DDs had two triple torpedo mounts. Artist gave her a quint mount instead.

[twilit pawn]

[dull light]

Aviation Battleships are too weak.

[hearty crane]

I would complain Invertred shop was too barren. No guns, no items, no nothing. Atleast usually there is something unique to score there, but it was sorely lacking last event.

[velvet adder]

yeah it was a brand new event too and nothing not even a sub torp for the new sub

[dawn patio]

Please add more filters in Gear Craft in depot

[velvet adder]

2x books makes 2nd floor dorm useless maybe ships that are in it take half morale degredation?

[errant viper]

I think illustrious muse’s skill should tell you which rng buff she is giving your fleet. Feels weird that the game doesn’t tell you and you have to do guess work when other ships don’t have this problem.

[inland creek]

is the AES system actually coming?

[rugged spire]

fleet lock mode for SOS map

increase barrege of roonmuse skill to make it more reliable to debuff when auto

[real cobalt]

Okay so i know a trade system is a no no but and hear me out here has there been any suggestions about a excess event item trade system? So For examples if you have any event currencies left over you can trade them in for oil/gold like a 10 event currency to 100/1000 gold/oil. (10 : 100/1000). Or something like that? Not sure if that makes sense. Also still waiting to see if we will get ability to upgrade gear parts. I have so many t1 that i cant use and want the ability to upgrade them or convert them into something else.

[frigid swan]

For clarity when they say trade they mean player to player trading

Because you could get multiple accounts and exploit the heck out of it

[eternal bronze]

make it restricted to high lvl players then

like 90

its not that hard

[ornate basin]

no player to player trading, but I believe Danarei’s suggestion has already been suggested in the past

a use for leftover event currencies

[naive wind]

Notification to tell us who and how many guild members are using our support ships

Also move the player secretary ship for us to be able to see the the level of the support ship

[crimson niche]

I think a lot of people have complained about this but the event rerun wait is way too long. It's been too many months since ashen. Personally, I don't think the best way to solve this issue is to run events more often since I can't imagine we would get a chance to roll for strong ships more than once a year. I would love if a special wishing well that let you roll for event locked ships was implemented. It can even be run during skin reruns. People like me don't buy skins for ships until we have them. I think a system like this is needed for me to recommend this game to other people since I can't expect my friends to enjoy the harder content and min-maxing without having busted ships like Perseus or Nagato. It's sad knowing this falls on deaf ears

[velvet adder]

The game has to follow through on its word that limited characters and skins are in fact limited, otherwise people who decided to extend their efforts (this includes but is not limited to spending money) to obtain them would feel cheated. Imagine buying a limited issue of a book/CD/etc just to find out it became a regular print after a month. I agree that reruns have lagged behind but if your complain is about not being able to obtain powerful units rather than specific ones then I don't think that holds up. Several of the ships considered by most as top tier have been in the permanent pools for a good while now.

[cursive horizon]

Saw someone else make the same complaint I wanted to. With other “token collection” events you can get them from WA, events, and Hard mode. It took me a while to realize all the work I was doing on Chessboard HM wasn’t getting me any pizza tokens. Then I looked at the reward tiers and realized I’m not even halfway to the damn outfit after days of grinding 8-4 and 10-1. This is absurd.

[crimson niche]

Idk what you mean they aren't limited since they are still locked behind a special event. Tbh I don't care if I feel cheated from investing a lot in an event because the benefit of being able to wait less time to roll a ship you missed is 100 percent worth it.
For the second one, you can go take a stroll and look at PvP leaderboards. Amagi and Nagato are far overdue for being in permanent pool.
If you care about PvE more, the game is significantly harder if you don't have Persues, Richelieu, Jeanne D'arc, Jean Bart, Howe, Noshiro, Shinano etc... Every single non-PR BB thats good is event locked on EN. Baltimore and Formidable icing on the cake I guess.

[velvet adder]

@crimson niche What i mean is that if they said "available from x day to y day" then they have to stand by what they say. Otherwise they will lose credibility. You can do the full campaign with illustrious and unicorn instead of Perseus. Warspite can do the same job as howe and Jean bart etc. Regular pool has Essex and centaur, etc. You can comfortably beat ch 13 without any of those you mentioned.

[crimson niche]

I see what you mean. How about the rerun event only lets you roll ships for 6 months ago or something cause that's a long time to wait.
Ik it's possible to beat w13 without any of the ships I mentioned. That's why I said significantly harder. Im just saying almost all the top tier units are event locked.
Also I should mention it's impossible to make a good sub fleet with only permanent pool ships.

[toxic sail]

u-81, u-101, and u-47 are in the special pool tho

[polar python]

Future events will also have new t0 units though

[crimson niche]

Oh I forgot U-47 was archived

NVM than

[steady flower]

can we get an update on war archives please? We are long overdue for nagato and jb in perma pool and war archives. Amagi too would be nice. Dunno why JP is ahead of EN in this

[naive cobalt]

@fierce ember if you want to give feedback in 4 completely separate parts - just send it in 4 separate parts, instead of trying to mash it together, creating complete mess and still sending 3 messages
also 4th feedback are just submarines. you described submarines, that's what HOCs are.

[fierce ember]

sorry,its just that 2k character discord limit,it doesnt really let you describe this in details and mate it as one post,i wish i could make this in to one thing so it wont look dumb

[naive cobalt]

if you want to give feedback in 4 completely separate parts - just send it in 4 separate parts

you sent 4 distinct suggestions
they don't need to be mashed together

[ornate basin]

in the future, you can always send to us and we will just add it to existing card if they are under the same general umbrella

[naive cobalt]

now I'll need to go and edit everything so it fits in one card

[fierce ember]

i was originally writing this in a text file and then copy pasted in to bel bot,without braining it out to split it correctly for it to look.....NORMAL

ANYWAYS its my bad

[naive cobalt]

there are also services like pastebin btw
you can write short write up and add the link to more detailed explanation

[shy pond]

I really like the OPS mission system, but xould someone please make sure the strongholds are not blocking access to the baltic ports? I am constantly getting missions for those

Same for Mediterranean ports TBH

[normal vine]

in regards to https://trello.com/c/ovaWmxHe/1325-general-suggestions-about-cats
Takemaru is NOT CA-exclusive, it covers all cruisers (CL, CA, CB), so I don't really see the need for a CL-focused cat
another cruiser-focused SR cat and more Command/universal cats would be nice, though

[hearty crane]

Which events? I cannot recall a SINGLE token event that dropped on WA or hard... except Circle lights which did drop on HM which was fixed after a week. Pizza does drop on events.

[scenic flower]

We need the pizza cats (not samurai) and vodka cats

[fierce ember]

yeah,was a bit of my bad,but she kind of sucks with her skills tbf,and just having a complete different thing for CLs wouldnt hurt,as they need to focus more on their EVA,while CA and the only CB we have as of now can get some focus on their firepower /torp,as they are quite of a meat wall already

a bit in details
1)FP and torp are more of a CA thing,bcs CLs need to just NOT DIE in a fight,and usually they have just a decent effect with their skill instead of having the raw dmg(helena,jintsuu so on)
2)second skill has a really weird trigger mechanic,as well as the effect itself,its not related to buffing CAs/CLs/CBs in any way and generally useless as there are no such threat to just kill your flagship in a main fleet fight,there are some SIRENS that can do it in one go,but thats the other thing that doesnt trigger it to be useful
3)Even if the effect itself is decent,yet again it is locked behind this trigger of engaging main fleet which is not as useful on normal maps,and nearly useless in OS

i also wanned to write about it in the post,but yet again,character limit,and CAs are not used as often,as well as they are considered to be tanks,not dmg dealers so this can work for a while,so focusing more on CVs and cats for them is a priority

[drifting rapids]

https://youtu.be/N_Gv5ShXegU

maybe oot but it would be nice to have something like this.
a skill animation every time ships launch a barrage, ofc only for bb and cv's

[normal vine]

you mean like the CV image covering 2/3 of the screen (which I'd like to disable, thank you very much)?

[drifting rapids]

a skill animation covers the whole screen btw not just skill cut ins like ones we have rn..

ones like epic7 skill animation

[raven crater]

I foresee that getting old quickly, since people are already tired of cutins

[velvet adder]

have meowficcers item searching auto finish when you empty a map in ops?

i get the "oh u might miss a rare item" but its kinda annoying to have to just make my fleet just move a lap of the map before i can leave

maybe have the bar just fill up as if the fleet is moving? without me moving it 🙂

[shy pond]

Feedback: OPS bettles not fulfilling "sortie and complete" events is bad game design. I don't have the time to do both and I guess most people share this

[cursive horizon]

Yeah, I’ve been largely ignoring OS because I don’t have time for it and everything else the game demands of me.

[hearty crane]

Perhaps have the "finished zone" also auto-finish cats. Wouldn't want a missclick to waste my cats' loot (oh or was that your suggestion?)

[junior escarp]

it shouldn't, OS and normal sorties are different things

[shy pond]

I will disagree with this on the basis that an average player doesn't play multiple hours per day

Even events allow you to get side missions done through them, so I see no reason OPS isn't allowed it

[junior escarp]

because event and OS are different, OS is a permanent content. And by the way, you can do all you have to do daily in AL in less than an hour

[shy pond]

If you consider Ashes as "daily", it takes far more than that (And since Ashes is limited I do)

[junior escarp]

Considering ashes as daily, still less than an hour, maybe an hour

[shy pond]

Even if the rewards are lowered (Like OPS has for standard battle exp gains), it would result in far more comfortable experience for the end user

[junior escarp]

And for the end user you're meaning people that can't play the game that much, but not the entire playerbase

[hearty crane]

It really depends WHAT is counted (not sure whats wanted) as for example Hiryuu XP increments normal and OPS battles by 1 per OPS battle. So the base is already set to count for both...

[velvet adder]

honestly 1 hour a day is a lot of time 1/15th of your awake hours?

[hearty crane]

Its 1h just afk doing dishes or something though.

[velvet adder]

1/15th of all your time for the past 3 years? its like saying the game is 1/15th of your entire life if it were to continue

and all it does is demand more time (ops missions)

[junior escarp]

if I had that way of thinking about it, i wouldn't be wasting time playing any game

[naive cobalt]

you can have philosophical discussions about time and existence elsewhere

[velvet adder]

theres a reason why the game is adding more afk functions and im glad

[junior escarp]

and that reason is because people that can't play the game is complaining about it, and people that actually play the game has to now afk play it

[velvet adder]

AFK feature has a toggle after safe mode, like clearing mode does

[shy pond]

My point being, could something about it be added to feedback? OPS is relatively new and it definitely needs some refinement

[velvet adder]

you can add it urself if you know what you want to write by dming @agile otter with !feedback

[raven crater]

You can submit feedback yourself by going to bot spam and typing !submit

If it's not in #collected-feedback

[velvet adder]

i dont think anyone adds them for you anymore, takes too much time

[hearty crane]

Eh, not sure if Pizzeria falls under things specified. Again, Hard and War Archives never gave these points either, just normal and event. Usually they time these better with events, now we had a bit of Inverted, but with the 2x not counting bug (RIP my D3 runs) and now Tragedy for 5 days.

[formal oyster]

Could we put the Exit Scan mode button a little more into the top left corner.
As an emulator player I use a key for all "return" buttons, except this one ( that is used fairly often in Opsi ) is weirdly offset compared to all the other ones, and I can't find an angle for the button mapping to get it and all the other ones.

[arctic siren]

Can we have Crimson Echoes/Ink Stained Steel Sakura/Iris of Light and Dark archived already? What's stopping EN from having them archived in the first place?

[velvet adder]

probably the 1 week bait build rate up that they usually come with, needs to fit into normal event schedule

[arctic siren]

They could have archived it during shark event though

[toxic sail]

iris of light and dark and ink stained steel sakura were archived in JP/CN while EN was having the reruns of those two
but yeah, i kinda find it unusual that crimson echoes is not included in today's maint

[arctic siren]

But that dosen't mean EN shouldn't have those archives too

[random sandal]

Could we get some more rewarded furniture coins, from OS or guild ops/shop please, so many limited sets have been released that will not rerun again in a row

[lyric seal]

Just played with full auto on the CN server.
Doesn't work with Chapter 13. It stops at 12-4.
Please make full auto work with chapter 13. Farming 13-4 is such a chore to do manually.

[narrow sage]

That was mainly a thing with Fallen Wings and Winter's Crown due to their unusual run statuses

the remaining three events had 2 runs even in EN, so there won't be any rate up.

[naive cobalt]

that was a thing with every archive on EN

[willow wolf]

13-4 isn't capable of going to safe mode, which I believe is required for auto farming.
I'm also on CN.

[gritty bay]

Do anyone else agree that yostar should also add the less lag to EN server?

my phone can run Honkai Impact pretty good but can't with this game

[narrow sage]

EVERY Archive? I Just remember it being a thing for those two events as in JP the typical archiving has no rate up at all

[naive cobalt]

Correct.
On EN archives get a rate up

I'm not 100% sure about early ones, but afaik - every archive past and coming should have a rate up, which is why it's delayed this time, to not overlap with existing events. (at least I assume so)

[narrow sage]

The term you're looking for is clearing mode which is unlocked at 3stars+Safe/Green danger level; the latter is possible, just not the former.

[earnest mist]

Idk if it was said here
I think that when a guild operation ends or you need to dispatch another fleet there should be a phone notification not just in-game.

[scenic flower]

Could you please unmark the rental outfits once we checked them? I checked them, they're terrible, so I don't want to be distracted by this exclamation anymore.

[cursive horizon]

Can I please stop seeing that red exclamation point when I have rental tickets? I don’t think the game should constantly be reminding us they exist after we’ve looked at the outfits once.

[kindred tartan]

can autolane search mode prioritize 3 triangle fleets for more xp?

[hasty mountain]

So I noticed I have this item from previous events but... It's not very interesting
For context, all other letter items have some sort message in them

[kindred vessel]

I like to imagine Warspite literally wrote "A letter from Warspite." and that's it

[cursive horizon]

So uh, just realized I’m not getting pizza tokens from the event stages. Weren’t they supposed to be dropping from bosses in events?

Which means now I have even more of a divide on what the game wants me to do. This is super frustrating.

[naive cobalt]

It's a known bug

[cursive horizon]

I just noticed it being mentioned in Bug Reports, my apologies!

[tight harness]

The rental outfits permanent notification is pretty annoying. Gotta use up all your tickets if ya don’t wanna see it

[coral glade]

Make the AFK feature allow you to set one fleet to "mobs only" and the other on "standby". Currently its set up in a way that forces you to battle the boss as soon as it spawns which on some maps you don't want like when farming 12-4. A feature to make fleets go after "?" would be nice too.

[plush fjord]

You can change that in the Role tab in the fleet selection screen

[kindred tartan]

May i ask why you'd want to stay on trashmobs?

[coral glade]

Farming 12-4 is more efficient if you clear all the trashmobs first and then go to the boss or skip the boss entirely

[coral glade]

Not in a way to avoid battling the boss

[plush fjord]

You can change a fleet to Standby in this screen

[coral glade]

The other fleet automatically gets set to all enemies

[cinder stirrup]

what's the point of "Normal mode" in OpSi ? it just gives an empty map

[cursive horizon]

Very grateful for the really quick token fix! Wasn’t expecting apolo-tokens but super appreciate them!

[raven crater]

Then don't use it?

[shy briar]

i am having problem with the top up

is it the right place to ask?

[raven crater]

#tech-support (or email customer support)

[shy briar]

ok thnx

[quasi cedar]

^

[inland creek]

why did u guys add a macro to this game

wtf is this

[weary ridge]

SLACKER

[junior escarp]

No u

[weary ridge]

And im proud of it

[naive cobalt]

@weary ridge @junior escarp you're in the wrong channel I feel like

[icy bay]

For the new auto-search mode, can you add an option to pick up coins/ammo/? nodes?

[velvet adder]

for the new auto mode can i set it to run x times before i collect stuff it needs to be LAZIER

[ionic ether]

What's the deal with the Littorio in the event screen being so much higher quality than her normal Sprite? Is she getting an art update or something?

For reference

[hearty crane]

If the auto is made to save people's time on, say, dailies... why doesn't it allow to do all 3 Hard runs on a single click? That would actually save some time on the daily tasks, but currently the auto mode cannot be used in OPS, Raids and basically saves 2 clicks on your Hard runs.

[velvet adder]

add the queuing up moves from operation siren to event maps that use the same "can only move so far each turn" mechanic

having to pan the camera over to closer to my fleet (after the game drags me over to the boss when it spawns) is quite annoying

[raven crater]

Why not just... do them? Is it really that arduous?

That seems like it'd take too much effort to implement considering the amount of time it could save

since hard mode takes you straight to the flagship anyway

[velvet adder]

That ties into the "do X runs before stopping" feature i suggested navi, but you cant see it since you blocked me

[raven crater]

Or, I guess you could have a suggestion to reduce hardmode attempts to 1 a day but triple the rewards lol

RIP anyone trying to complete akashi quest though

[naive cobalt]

it takes literally 1 click after you do 1 hard mode in autolane to start another immediately after

[velvet adder]

yeah but people will just macro that one click now sucks for normal players who dont want to cheat to do that extra 1 click

I assume the 1 extra click also applies to other maps than hard mode but im not sure since i havent safed an event map yet

[silver depot]

Macroing won't save you basically any time doing an extra click doing the 3 hardmode

[hearty crane]

But that click requires to be at the phone still. Just having it do the 3 Hard runs at once without interactions would save up a bit when being busy with something else. It's a minor save, but since it's one of those things you need to do daily, it adds up. And people have been complaining about the daily time requirement a LOT in this channel lately so it's about the one thing auto can help them at.

[raven crater]

I think if that's going to make or break it for you then you must have more important things to do than play AL

[naive cobalt]

I mean, feel free to suggest it with Belfast.

[hearty crane]

You literally can make the point about this Auto Lane mode in general so... and obviously you somehow missed how many many people had issues with the daily grind time lately and posted about it here.

[hearty crane]

It seems they actually added this with this patch (make sure to check its on). Nothing in the patchnotes about it though. Got some wrapping issues though

[raven crater]

1. They did
2. That's not actually what it is. He's saying there should be a push notification for it, right now it only pops up if you're actually in the game

[hearty crane]

That is last patch. This is this patch, and yes, it's push notifications.

[raw coral]

what is this?

[hearty crane]

When traveling in OPS there's a button now on the map you select to swap between area modes. Probably to allow people to pass when a Siren Stronghold blocks their path (and collect broken stars).

[raw coral]

so between save and normal? that one?

[hearty crane]

Yes. And abyssal, "hidden" (obscured zones) or stronghold. (why they still dont add the number in the topleft of that UI elements beats me)

[raw coral]

just discovered that today and thought it was always there

[gusty pond]

Autosearch is on by default, please change to off. I get into a new map & then cannot escape the autosearch & end up having to back my fleet out of combat. Wasting oil!

[earnest mist]

Yeah, it seems they've added it on this patch. Good to know

[pure gyro]

Seeing Hiryuu Meta survive with 132 life, only to spend more oil to fire 1 gun to finish her off... feels bad. >_<

[void schooner]

Request help and have someone else do it then.

[pure gyro]

I did twice, didn't have any assistance.

[formal oyster]

The eternal question of why are some artworks so low quality. We'll probably never get an answer nor an update to that...

[void stratus]

Auto search option is really one of the best updates for me after the 2.0 guild and OS.
I was waiting for better and more efficient ways to farm 👌

Please consider making oil -50% in War Archives.
I've been playing 5 months not a single ultra.
I don't think new players will even touch this content otherwise. Thanks 🙏

[tired saddle]

I have a issue with the game. I’ve tried discussing it with others and they don’t share the same worries as I do. This isn’t about the gameplay of azur lane, but it’s about the app itself.

After one major update I received a prompt that said simply ‘Allow app to track?’ And it honestly startled me. Why would azur lane do something like that? I did some digging and I really found only a few others came up with the same prompt. The prompt wasn’t in any typical azur lane fashion and only a small percentage of people who downloaded the update received this which again made me startled

I tried to talk to moderators about this since this was a genuine cybersecurity issue, azur lane was literally trying to track things like my real name, email, and everything I do on and off the app. If it wanted to track what I did on the app this wouldn’t be a discussion. But it was about things made specifically by “other companies”. You can see where this would frighten me. The mods were nothing but dismissive and practically ignored my genuine worries. And the fact this came only a week after the tik tok ban controversy got me even more frightened

I’m not suggesting Anything, I hope and do believe there’s still a logical reason why azur lane would do this but I genuinely can’t find any. Since this is the feedback channel and this isn’t a suggestion, all I hope for is that this is in some way removed or explained. Cybersecurity is a big deal for me and I don’t want to have another day having my favorite game ruined by genuine cybersecurity threats longer. I just want this explained or fixed.

[ornate basin]

this is an iOS specific thing

I believe almost if not all iOS users will receive that prompt, I did as well

[tired saddle]

Do you know why this happened? It’s frightening and has honestly changed azur lane for me. I can’t think of it the same knowing that it’s wanting to track everything I do

Sorry if I sound a little conspiratorial, I’m trying not to be

[ornate basin]

the only explanation I can wager is that it is an apple service and is an opt in kind of deal, it works similarly to how advertisers work by using your information and giving it out for "personalized ads"
this one runs through apple instead of 3rd party, and is opt in, so as long as you opt out, you have nothing to worry about when it comes to (azur lane based) personalized ads

[tired saddle]

That does remind me. I do believe this happened around the time of the update where azur lane introduced Apple ID support

[ornate basin]

yes, during one of our major updates last year, I believe all iOS users received this prompt, but like any kind of "allow tracking" button, most users just pressed no and moved on

[sinful cloud]

This tbh
I went to grind on normal maps just now and was a brawl and a half to turn that thing off, bunch of wasted oil for nothing
Its extremely annoying and there's some things that i would rather manual instead of auto

And fleet lock too, just put them both off by default

[tired saddle]

Thank you. I just needed some reassurance and it has brought my mind at ease. It genuinely helps.

ok im taking notes im sorry kawaakari

if i have anymore ideas ill post them here

[thorny stump]

For hard mode, it would be nice to show the oil cost of each fleet formation at the fleet select/fleet formation screen, beside each build up fleet. In hard mode, we do not use our pre-build fleets, so the player cannot see how much each fleet oil cost unless he start the mission ... by then may be too late to change the ships if the oil cost too high

[unique adder]

how do i send stuff to the bot

do i just message the bot

also i wana see titanic come into azur lane as a royal navy ashen ship perhaps i know i was reading 1 day her sister ships served in war and i think it would be vary cool if a tribute was made to titanic

like titanic could get a retrofit that at least turns her into a CV she could carry planes

it might be a good idea for anniversary event

[ebon egret]

Auto search is pretty nice. However, it is not really great for 7-2 farming.
You could

1. Make mystery node a path finding priority. If the node is blocked, you could either code as engage all fleet on the path to the mystery node or ignore mystery node until there is a available path
2. Make it possible to either set a lone mob fleet and let the player enage the boss manually or similarly set 1 mob fleet and 1 standby to enable player to pick up mystery node manual. Might be counter intuitive but might be easier to code/implement than the suggestion above.

[void schooner]

You can turn off auto search in the map to do pick ups, then turn it back on. Just gotta be quick to do it before the fleet starts moving.

[merry grove]

For auto search, Instead of showing us the "Total reward" window after every stage complete and making us click continue. Why not just skip that part so as to not interrupt the farming process and only show the "Total reward" window when the auto search function turns off completely, either by us canceling it or dock space full etc, to see everything we've collected from the farm all at once...?

[scenic flower]

Will search mode stop, when the fleet got critical damage? If not, then this is your flaw.

[kindred tartan]

give option for search-auto mode to piroritize sirens, shipgirls, 3triangle fleets, clear all fleets etc

right now from experience, it goes for shipgirl fleets as pirority (which is good), then picks whatever is closest (which isn't good)

quite a gap in xp between 1triangle vs 3 triangle, like upwards of 40% more xp

make or breaks xp/oil

[leaden sigil]

Hi, I've been playing the game since Shinano, I've been experiencing this feeling alot and wanted to share it.
Several times I saw a new skin in the shop I liked and might have bought, but I didn't own the ship.
I just took it in stride and kept playing, but recently I've learnt ships aren't re-run that often, formidable right now being last run in sept 2019. I'm not sure if this is intentional, but offering more ways to get unavailable ships, or including the ship with skin purchase, could increase sales.

[naive cobalt]

All events are archived and added to permanent gacha eventually after their rerun

it might take a while, but that's how it's handled

[leaden sigil]

I just meant, I might not personally be playing the game in 2022, but I might have bought some of those new years skins that were offered a couple weeks ago if I had owned the some of the ships, but they weren't available, and might not be available for me to get. It's been a weird feeling seeing content I'd like for ships I can't get during it's available window to purchase.

[scenic flower]

There is no point to rush when it comes to skins buying. Skins have their own reruns, then added perma, or, at least, there is a new year big sale with most of the skins available. The only thing matters is collaboration skins, which won't appear again.

[wraith olive]

In Guild Operations, the monthly attempts aren't really clearly outlined and there's no way to change an operation after you've started it, so it would be better to either remove the limit or stop the operation from being started in the first place

[scenic flower]

It's really terrible, that I can't engage the guild operation for another two weeks. The limit of 2 per month was a bad idea.

[raven crater]

I submitted something about this, you can read through it and upvote it if it seems along the lines of what you're suggesting #collected-feedback message

Also @scenic flower ^

[undone jungle]

So everybody also have this monthly attempt problem too?

[scenic flower]

ofc

[undone jungle]

Dang, i thought i was stupid since i didnt notice there was monthly attempts at all

[scenic flower]

coz they translated the text wrongly, and we couldn't know about those attempts.

[neat stump]

auto play is the best thing ever. thanks devs

[kindred monolith]

A idea that Azure Lane the game can do.Please I am begging you to add Midway into the game.She doesn’t even need jets because you can use her 1945 to 1955 version of her and give her F8F Bearcat HVAR 127 mm and Douglas BTD Destroyer that she gets in World of Warship.

[velvet adder]

As far as for that ad tracking thing up there i got it on android and it literally wouldnt let me decline not sure if thats a bug

the app closed when i clicked no and wouldnt let me continue

[ruby robin]

Any particular reason why event SP stages don't get a clearing mode? I know y'all could code out the 2x factor for it anyway to prevent daily abuse or whatever, but I feel like if we're going to make 99% of the game automated might as well be kind of consistent in the application...

[quasi merlin]

still no automated 13-4

[formal oyster]

And I agree that a way to farm only mobs would be nice for 12-4 farm ( For anywhere rather but particularly for this one ). As well as an "elite only" mode to farm Sirens in event stages.
And also a way to prioritise the mob fleet level. So that the auto-mode would target Lv 3 mob fleets in priority

[kindred horizon]

Does anyone know what Deployed ships<_12 means?

[cloud sable]

thats a question for #gameplay-help
and its answered in the pins there

[kindred horizon]

Okay thanks, I'll go there.

[hasty mountain]

when you want to cancel skill training, it offers you to get partial EXP for the skill
could we change this to be no EXP but get the books back? I honestly don't see any situation where a player would want to get partial EXP from their book, but I can see plenty of reason someone might end up mis-clicking and using the wrong book and might want their book back in order to use the correct one

[ruby robin]

some people including myself utilize this feature to not have to wait the full duration of a skillbook to max out skills

[distant arrow]

Clearing mode was nice but I think I'll be turning it off since auto search and auto start battles is messing everything up

[rugged spire]

nexttime when rerun, put the gun that only drop from that event available to exchange in shop( 138.6, zara gun... etc) . Why the plane for FOrmidable and gun for Litto in the shop but not zara gun?

[junior escarp]

if you do that, there's no reason to do D3 in this event, as there isn't any ship drop from D3, so now you have something to do in D3

[velvet adder]

how about points

[scenic flower]

Farming D3 is useless anyway, coz u have to do at least 4 reruns to get enough BPs. For me their drop is close to 0%.

[junior escarp]

you can get points from every map, not only D3, and the amount of BPs is rng so you can finish in one rerun (depends on how much you play of course)

[willow wolf]

There should be at least 1 of the new equipments in the shop / point reward pool. Players can farm for additional ones in the maps if they want to.

[junior escarp]

if it is a specific gun (JB gun, littorio gun, etc) there should, because it's needed for a skill. In this case, Zara's gun is just another CA/CB gun

[narrow sage]

people are overrating that gun YET AGAIN

[tame current]

Timers for sending out fleets on guild operations are AWFUL for europeans... you made a 3 hour gap between 2 timers, and put them in the middle of the night. so that to not lose an aditional fleet I have to wake up between 3 and 6 AM.. please just make them every 6 hours and/or let them stack so we can send multiple if we miss one.

[raven crater]

The time that the operation starts is entirely dependent on when the last operation ends, and ultimately when your guild master/officer starts the operation set itself

[tame current]

im talking about sending aditional fleets, and those happen on specific hours of the day

[fierce ember]

I think we should have some sort of tab in the ship gear where it calculates ships stats after all of the buffs/modifiers that affect the ship via formation or else, with an option to turn on/off stat modifiers like

1)on start buffs that ship gets by herself or from pair
2)buffs from other ships (like shinano AVI and RLd buff or nagato flagship buff etc)that affect ship directly in the current formation
3)stats after a meofficer skill has triggered

as it gets haard and annoying to calculate those by yourself when you need to do some calculations,as well as you can just miss something really easy with all of these stats
as we cant see their stats in moments during the battle to check,having this makes just life not as hard for some timings or dps calculations

[hearty crane]

Could you guys rebalance stars and actually make them reset (and have obscured zones count to them) You guys now have an "endgame" feature for 'hardcore players' where all there is to do really is dailies, which is the same thing you expect everyone to do daily anyways. How did you guys end up designing an endgame without endgame? There's zero point to going activelly for stars since you get them passive in the 6 months it takes to get enough promoted pawns.

[fierce ember]

they reset after 2 resets each time,it is said in the tooltip
reset->reset with reseting stars->reset->reset with reseting stars

[hearty crane]

Look up the ! they added in the hotfix. Hard to miss since its stretched and ugly. It'll catch your eye right away

[spark cedar]

Please Put in a way to cancel Quests. For the love of god. I have 5 quests behind a IMPOSSIBLE to beat stronghold. So I can't even do quests now.

[ruby robin]

have you tried tapping this button here

[spark cedar]

I dont see that button any where

[ruby robin]

should have been recently added, did you complete the story?

[spark cedar]

yes

[ruby robin]

might be a bug then, I'd consider reporting to #bug-reports or so, all updated clients should have the ability to toggle between states of any given map including strongholds now

[hearty crane]

"did you complete the story"
(strongholds don't appear till you do).
But yes, as stated that button they added allows you to trigger the 'normal' zone and proceed past a Stronghold. It's one of the reason they added it (along with fixing the chapter transition bug). You probably want to take a screenshot of your Siren Stronghold screen if you want to post in BR so we can really see if the button is there or not.

[unique adder]

so i think it would be cool if azur had a alternative invintory for common ships when u pull a ship if its a common unless its something u want it goes to that instead dock space is sucha pain

[velvet adder]

Have auto play automatically retire the ships you get that fit the quick retire settings, and just give u the oil and coins on the continue screen

or at least an on/off function for this

maybe one for auto enhance too

[unique adder]

yah what im saying u can recycle from that invintory to

[raven crater]

So basically your suggestion is free dock space

[unique adder]

so u main dock is not getting filled with clutter

[velvet adder]

oh u also said some feedback like mine i didnt read i just said what i was thinking

[unique adder]

so its basicly a dock for multiple common ships

[velvet adder]

but yes retiring ships is a pain

[unique adder]

same goes for limit breaking ships that are common it will allow u to acess that other dock through a tab when limit breaking

[cursive horizon]

Regarding retiring/limit breaking, I don't have a problem with it.. I do, however, get tired of being asked if I want to use SSR/Elite ship.

[unique adder]

wich u can also retire from there also if players wana use common ships as fodder for enhancing ships u can do it exact same way

[thorny stump]

I would suggest to make auto search function default to off ... I start a map and it makes me waste oil when I don't want to auto search

[junior escarp]

deactivate it before going into the map

[formal oyster]

Where did you find this information ? Because that's not what the tooltip said.

And it would make no sense that stars reset every 2 cycles as it would be impossible to complete progression on some sectors ( where you need to defeat like 20 pawn fleets while you can only get 2/3 each reset )

[cloud sable]

thats just in the help tab. it was never updated with the new info so i assume they didnt realize it was outdated when citing it

[scenic flower]

My suggestions of how to complement the search-and-destroy function
In a long run it should optionally stop if:

1. It spended X amount of oil
2. X amount of oil is left in the account
3. The mood of X ships is below Y
4. The HP of one of the ships in all fleets is less than X%

[lilac shard]

I suggest sort by name

[sage oak]

I'm totally thankful for the auto-search function. For performance reasons, it might be even better to skip the battle animations entirely and just calculate the results based on the stats, maybe with some random factor. That would be much faster and you can get more things done in the same time.

It may be nitpicking, but the performance is very bad. Really bad, for something that shows 2D animations and images only. It seems that most power goes into the GPU though, the CPU just idle around most of the time (which seems to be obvious as how much many images are shown on screen). I really hope the devs have written the game in CPP instead of Java though..

[hearty crane]

They found it here, and it got recited a lot since Azur Lane Meta's vid on the reset. As you can see, it's STILL wrong even with the new reset help tooltip.

[void stratus]

[normal vine]

it's only on the fleet movement screen, not the other world map

[rugged spire]

remove stat require and type ship require in event mode , it can help people more convenient to bring ship they want

[arctic siren]

@rugged spire there is a reason why it's hard mode

But I agree the 1k evade for D3 is a bit absurd

[arctic siren]

Allow us to see weapon spread/pattern in gear lab so we could decide what to craft

[velvet adder]

sp doesnt have a stat requirement though is that map not supposed to be hard? would maybe make sense to remove the stat requirement once its cleared or when its in safe mode

personally it doesnt make it hard at all, its just a method to make people use more oil while clearing by clogging up their fleets with more boats

[arctic siren]

Make it only a lvl requirement would be good for event hard mode

[spice mango]

Please show this little and unnoticeable indicator while selecting guild ops to avoid frustrating/confusing player for unable to access the game feature

[normal vine]

SP maps always have just a level requirement

[velvet adder]

yeah im just making a point that sp map doesnt need stat requirements to be hard its prob like i said forcing you to use more oil per clear since youll be grinding it, and you cant grind sp so they just let you use whatever

[keen oxide]

Can we just exchange oil for rewards for the next auto update? I think the Auto search function is a little time consuming with the battle simulations. I would prefer if I can just exchange my oil everyday for map rewards and log off. TY

[slate monolith]

Can we increase the attempts for more than just two a month, or just remove the limit?

I only ask this here since I know it isn't a bug

[rich bridge]

why is the new Zara sister a same time as zara 50/50 pull? 5 zara's 0 pola

Make turning on auto mode automatically applies to submarines too, instead of having to manually toggle auto for subs

[slate monolith]

They already have a button for that when you're in auto mode for the subs to come in at the start of the battle, but they have to be in the range the sub can actually attack in

[arctic siren]

So if you turn on auto in a battle that's not within sub range then it won't toggle auto sub?

[slate monolith]

This is what I'm talking about before you go into the fight

1st of each month. I don't think we really need a notification when months swap.

No i hate visiting ports everyday to check if they added items or not.

[hearty crane]

Every 3 days. Pretty sure we don't need notif for that either since we can keep up with the exchange medals ships too, which are also 3 days. Also guild shop (3/4 days).

[ruby echo]

Alright, since they added the new auto-combat feature on world stages (which is a phenomenal QoL feature), I really think there needs to be some kind of system implemented where you're guaranteed to obtain map only ships. The grind to get some of these ships is kind of asinine given how like 90% of them are just collectibles.
My initial idea was going to just be a tracker where you clear the map X amount of times to get 1 copy for free, and have it scale with rarity (ie: something like - Clear 20 times for blue ships, 50 for purple, 80 for gold).
This could be a slight issue because some ships are better (Akagi/Kaga are better golds than Maya, Jintsuu is better than Houshou). But I think at this point power creep kind of makes that all irrelevant anyway.

[formal oyster]

I don't think it's a particularly good idea. Yes Rng can be frustrating, but that's what make the spice of the game. At the end of the day if you're guaranteed to get everything in the game without having that slight excitement of "Will I get it ? Will I not ?" then some people could quickly lose interest in the game.
As frustrating as Rng can be, it's also what makes all these game so popular, humans love gambling. Of course limitations are often good, specifically when it comes to things that you get or can get with real money. But here it's story ships, just farm them and that's it...

It took me 1 year to get Niizuki and Nicholas, but I don't think that's an issue, that's part of the experience. Now it's past me and when I look back at it it makes me smile more than anything else.
If you're very unlucky in all parts of the game that's understandable you'd want guarantees to be able to enjoy it a little yourself, but proposing changes that could ruin the game interest to so many other players because you remove their spice from the game for your own personal benefit is delicate.
There are others Rng parts in this game where it could be discussed because it can give a lot of advantages to some players over others ( PR gear/prints drop for example ) but for little things like story ships... heh.

[narrow sage]

You're just a small step short of just asking for them as at this point ship farming's never been easier (if a bit rough on oil/etc if used recklessly)

[ruby echo]

@formal oyster See, there's a few reasons I disagree with you.
First is because Yostar has gradually moved away from the story chapters even being necessary as the game has progressed. Most of the meaningful content of the game is tied to events, and Op Siren - OS in particular where most grinding should be focused. And events usually have pretty decent gear that limit the need to even farm story missions for that aspect.
The second is about your point of gambling and the "spice" of the game. That revolves exclusively around the gacha. I can assure you that zero percent of players are interested in this game solely to farm map drop ships. Nobody is going to "lose interest" because they aren't farming 3-4 or 7-4 or whatever stage anymore. The "spice" that people get excited over and keeps them playing is rolling for event exclusive gacha ships. Auto-running a map for a map-drop blue tier ship over and over is easily the least fun and least engaging thing you can do in the game.

"proposing changes that could ruin the game interest to so many other players because you remove their spice from the game..." again, I can assure you the overwhelming majority of players in this game dont play for map drop only farming. Are they going to quit when they get them all then? The "spice" would be gone by that logic. I'm sure if anyone dug through the trophy room channel they'd see most people who are posting pics of their map drop ships aren't going "woo yipee yayy glad I got her that was fun!" It's more than likely along the lines of "finally! The hellish grind for this ship is overrrr!!!"

And as I proposed in my initial idea to begin with, I didn't even suggest phasing out the grinding. I simply suggested a cap for a single ship copy. The grind is still there for dupes and gear.

[formal oyster]

I can assure you that zero percent of players are interested in this game solely to farm map drop ships.
I didn't mean it as a goal ( even though for some ships it's debatable ) but more of a side effect. Of course campaign ships are not the main goal of the game, I just believe they do play their part in the overall experience of the game, in particular that Rng spice feeling. Yes it's just a detail, but it's the kind of detail that adds up, and if you remove those details, the whole experience would, hypothetically, feel a lot more bland. That's how I meant it.

If you put a safety net for ship drops, well you're sure to get that ship at some point, and it would kill that feeling of satisfaction when you finally get the ship. It's applicable to a lot of things in the game, so phasing out those things is, in my opinion, not the greatest idea.
There are other more important areas where we could put safety features to have a balanced ratio of rng satisfaction/frustration for sure, notably in gacha or other areas where the drops actually really matters and where resources to engage in those features are scarce.
But targeting secondary things like ship drops amongst other little things could be detrimental to the interest that players put into the whole grinding in the game in the long run.

Not saying that you're wrong or that your suggestion is bad, but I'm just sharing my feeling on it as I think this type of thing could have a subtil negative effect on the game over time.

[raven crater]

If anything having auto search is a reason for them not to change map drop ship chances because it's super easy to farm for them now

[finite dome]

How about adding a feature that can trade ship with other player?

[magic dew]

How about adding a skin refund system?

[cursive horizon]

@ruby echo I heard that Japan (or was it China..) has gotten an actual Chapter 4 story mode, so clearly the demand for further story elements are there. In fact, I'm pretty sure a lot of people became disappointed when the story abruptly vanishes after Chapter 3. I know I sure as hell did. The events are pretty much the only source of lore and story anymore and while I love them for that, it makes me frustrated that we haven't gotten further emphasis on story.

[vernal crystal]

How about adding a skin gallery system to actually see every skin that we bought in our account, not just checking them from the shipgirls (can't even see the skins you have if you don't have certain shipgirls) individually or see a few in the shop which doesn't show every single one you have anyways!?

[agile lance]

is there a way to change or cancel the guild operation? i did not read about the 2 attempts per month and i don't want to wait 60 days for it to close itself

Add a warning message when you want to start the guild operation when not enough members can participate (when the members of the guild reached the 2 times a month limit)

Nice to have suggestion: Prioritizing ammo pickups be possible with Auto-Search turned on. Stage 12-4 has ammo that my mob fleet always passes over.

Could have a button to directly enter the ashes fights in the column where the SOS missions are
Small QoL but wouldnt need to load the entire map of OpSi

[fleet sleet]

I agree to this as well. ^

[thick pine]

Also changing OpSi a little so that I don't have to go from the OpSi main screen, with the Ashes Showdown button, locate fleet and all, into the map I'm already in or finished on, just so I can tap outside that map back to a different OpSi screen just to move to a different zone

Who was the programmer that decided this was a valid ambush setup? Literally no way to escape, and worse is that she's holding one of the energy matrices

[velvet adder]

its cool guys if you add some of my secretary posing and or dialogues in the auto search reward screen just like how secretaries support to work

Something like hey commander here is the combat rewards etc

[neon bloom]

Please add a auto search option that's Boss only, or change "flagships" to not include the frekin event sirens.

[raven crater]

Event sirens are not considered flagships? That's already the case

[neon bloom]

They are hunted down by the "flagship" fleet in D3

[velvet adder]

not for me

[raven crater]

That doesn't happen for me

Check your settings

[velvet adder]

and there are no siren in d3 they are humanoid french fleets

[raven crater]

You mean Italian?

[neon bloom]

fine, semantics, the humanoid ITALIAN fleets

[velvet adder]

yes

[raven crater]

Either way, the game definitely already classifies them as escort fleets, but they have priority over non-humanoid escort nodes

[neon bloom]

The ones I don't want to use a higher oil cost boss killing fleet on

[ruby robin]

elites/sirens/whatever you're being overly pedantic calling them
yeah it seems like a reasonable ask

[velvet adder]

you have the settings wrong ma ybe

[raven crater]

But it already works like that

[ruby robin]

what he's asking for is something more akin to avoiding clearing mobs with flagship fleet tho, could always do with more clarification on the relevant point

[raven crater]

Please add a auto search option that's Boss only, or change "flagships" to not include the frekin event sirens.

No, he said not to include Elites in the "Flagship" setting. It's 100% the case that they already aren't

[velvet adder]

na he said his fleet that is set to attack the boss only is attacking escort fleets

[ruby robin]

right so the next logical case is the flagship fleet clears things en route to the boss

you're being a little bit tunnel here navi, it's ok

[raven crater]

I don't understand what either of you two are saying, I'll just see what he says.

The flagship fleet does not move at all until the boss fleet appears, and then it moves straight for the boss

[ruby robin]

so if a boss is blockaded by a mob, the flagship fleet will take one (or more) out en route to the boss because it has priority as soon as the enemy flagship spawns

that's the current implementation, he doesn't want that to happen with the flagship fleet

[raven crater]

I did not get that explanation from what he said, nor have I seen that occur in D3, but it does make sense that the mob fleet should attack the enemy in the way of the boss and not the flagship fleet yeah

[ruby robin]

it's just a weird shitty edge case, but I'm guessing the only fix might be "use mob fleet to fully clear a hole after enemy flagship spawns"

[velvet adder]

he didnt mention that

[ruby robin]

yes the clarification was part of my own feedback

[velvet adder]

we're having this issue my entire guild can't do guild operations because I accidentally picked the hardest op because I didn't know there was a limit. it shouldn't let me start and deduct coins, when I'm out of attempts. Remove this limit. It shouldn't even exist! It just punishes you most active users for what reason, you really think a couple extra gold plates will throw the balance out?

[formal oyster]

Actually, would that be that bad of an idea ?
Like a system where you could refund a limited amount of skin ( 1 to 3 ?) that could maybe reset each year ? I know that seeing that new Bremerton skin, I really want to get it and I already bought the Tennis one, which I kinda regret now since she gets a better one ( to me at least ) and well, we can only use one in the end. And some people are tight money-wise, especially nowadays so...
I don't really see that being that big of an issue, the refund would apply in gems anyway and well, people already spent money for that so devs wouldn't lose any money in that regard ( they would just not gain X more skin worth of money depending of the amount refundable, and only when refunding a non-L2D for another non-L2D or the opposite, is that that big of a deal ? )

That would also partially solve (or rather get around) the issue of broken skins that never get fixed, especially L2D ones, which are borderline scam sometimes to be honest.

[velvet adder]

can we make the 2x perma now we have auto auto still means i have to have the app open for around 7 minutes a time

anything to cut that in half or more would be nice

having an app open doesnt always correlate for more money for the app

lol

just make it like commision a fixed time then come back and reap the rewards then

its not good for my phone or computer for it to be ran on for hours upon hours at a time

at max load

[viral furnace]

Seeing the Bremerton skin... I want to (again) suggest that we could get a ship when we buy a skin to apply to. Because I doubt that rerun of her event is coming, but I want to use the skin the moment I buy it, not a year later. *at least for event ships, that are not available for a year or longer.

can we at least trade ship that are the same rarity?

why not?

i got 3 zara and 3 formi but no pola

[obtuse breach]

id like to say thanks for the new War archives changes, makes it so i dont have to worry about going fast to get 3 runs in from one key, and i can combine it with the auto grind feature

[raven crater]

I submitted a feedback item about this if you want to upvote it #collected-feedback message

[merry grove]

Can the minimum bp drop for 5hr face research be 2? Especially for DR, I've done like 4-5 5hr DR research and all of them only gave 1 bp which is kinda ridiculous for the time and resource invested. Also 8hr should at least give 3 bp minimum

[plain depot]

As a simple suggestion, adding an option to put the load screens as a black loading screen or something more SFW, for when you are in public transport or in a place with more people, because the triple pantyflash and some other loading screen images are... risky.

[dense frigate]

this probably has been said already but i wish this map overview shows the location of the node im looking at.

[hearty crane]

It used to... then they broke it.

[velvet adder]

yup did already and told my guild to aswell

[patent shell]

oh, I'm joing in

This Limit is extremely constricting and feels completely unnecessary.
It just feels punishing

[raven crater]

Did you upvote the feedback item also?

[quasi storm]

Is it a bug that I am only getting 5 of the event currency per x3 clear of the normal stage and only 15 on the x2 per clear of the hard stage clear or is that on propose?

[raven crater]

What stage are you doing? You will actually get some bonus currency on the C2 an C3 maps based on how much HP your harbor has left. That sounds like what you're referring to, in which case I don't know if that value is dependent at all on the daily bonus currency status of the stage

[naive cobalt]

that is exactly what it is

and no, it's not doubled by x3/2

[hearty crane]

It seems to be in some weird line with OPS that "everyone should get the same handpicked rewards." - can't have some players get some more rewards than others, so have this really bad store system!

[hearty crane]

With the Inverted Orthorn "improved OPS" changes the message that loot spawned destorying a weather tower got removed. Why? Don't know. Of course I know loot spawns (since been told from the start) but there will be new players entering Operation Siren too who will never be told. Are they supposed to randomly stumble upon it? Always use recon (in which case, why is it an option rather than default)? Most times the loot doesn't spawn in the Line-of-Sight nor even sonar range so the only way you know it was there was the message, unless you recon all your zones. Is that how we're supposed to play? Alternative fixes would be to simply remove recon and pre-explore all non-story areas if that's the way we're intended to play. Or always spawn the loot in the line-of-sight. But easiest is just to restore a message that never should have been removed in the first place, especially with the "reduced TB" already implemented. OPS in newbie-unfriendly enough as is without making it more so for no good reason.

[quasi merlin]

are they ever gona renable the kizuna gear effects since other faction gear is permanent

[viscid moon]

For maximum fanservice: Height and measurements of shipgirls. 😛

A profile in general would be nice

[raven crater]

inb4 all characters depicted in this game are at least 18 years old

[viscid moon]

Age doesn't make sense in this game tbh. You have old ass ships looking like grade school girls, and on the other end you have adult looking comparatively new ships like Centaur

Apparent age depends more on type of ship and size than ship age

[velvet adder]

[viscid moon]

And if the age is the age of the ship, it would mean there's a starting year for the AL story, which has awlays been kept vague

[wary sand]

Hi people, I got a question, I hope this is the correct place to throw this question, I got 2 months playing the game, and I noticed that in 22 November - 5 December 2018, there was the event "Visitors from Another Dimension", as a follower of the neptunia series I would love to obtain all these ships soon or later, has the event repeated in the last years? or do you people think it's possible for it to repeat? I am so ready to throw my wallet at it when it happens. Thannks in advance!!!

[toxic sail]

collab events such as that don't have reruns so far

[raven crater]

Due to the licensing difficulties surrounding collab events it's unlikely we will ever get a rerun of any collab event, and so far it has not happened for any region

[eternal bronze]

you are not the only one waiting for collab reruns

[ornate basin]

as much as we would love to see it happen, we cant answer your questions because we dont know

"when will we get x" is out of our scope

[arctic siren]

All we know is that hololive will never get a rerun ever again

[narrow sage]

What is it with people and assuming Yostar is die-hard nationalist.... though with Neptunia, I don't think it can be 100% ruled out due to the working relationship with IF/CN, but at the same time, Don't hold your breath.

[stark narwhal]

when can we get the saved mewficers function to work normally?
it has been decades since it was a known bug

[fierce ember]

i d say its #gameplay-help
as its a question not feedback

[arctic siren]

So I get why ISSS/Iris didn't get archived in EN, but why wasn't Crimson Echoes archived at the same time as CN/JP?

They are ran the same time in all 3 regions right?

[hearty crane]

Something something week of rate-up but we got Pizza ships

[hearty crane]

You realise they can be shit down wheter or not they are hardcore nationalists, right?

[narrow sage]

If they were going to get shut down for not carrying the standard, it'd have happened sooner upon the chnese faction becoming fully irreveant. That and if bridges were fully gone, any AL streams would have been nuked one way or another (I can still find them)

[hearty crane]

Yeah, the CCP would surely care for the game balance. Totally the same as acknowledging Taiwan sovereignty.

[naive cobalt]

This is not an appropriate discussion here

[narrow sage]

Because they're waiting to do the others and/or a good time as EN insists on giving all recent archivings rate ups (a 'perk' that's beyond I think beyond Fallen Wings, is an EN exclusive), thus can't put it too close to an event

[arctic siren]

So it's soon, just not now?

[naive cobalt]

Obviously it's "at some point"
but when this point we don't know

[arctic siren]

Then why CN/JP got it archived the same time as pasta rerun? Aka current event

[naive cobalt]

You are responding to a comment that already answered with possible reasons to this exact same question

Because they're waiting to do the others and/or a good time as EN insists on giving all recent archivings rate ups (a 'perk' that's beyond I think beyond Fallen Wings, is an EN exclusive), thus can't put it too close to an event

[arctic siren]

Hopefully they give us an archive after tjisb

[cursive horizon]

Holy crap, did the update get rid of the lag in the docks? Just went to enhance ships to clear space and it switched smooth as butter!

[inland creek]

pls remove the new auto mode. i know my opinion is pretty unpopular but i think it ruins the experience of some older players. Event point leaderboard is trashed. honestly i think people would still play the game if AES was removed.

[cursive horizon]

I've actually fallen in love with the auto-search feature, and I've been playing for almost 2 years now. I can finally do the grinding during events in a way that doesn't make me fall asleep, and allows me to do other things such as eat/watch/play a game. Without losing the precious event points, which I'll never in a million years get all of the rewards anyways.

I just wish Fleet Lock would be allowed outside of Safe Mode.

[inland creek]

casual smh

at least remove it from event grind

[rugged spire]

decrease the amount of mood lost per battle. I just do 2 time w11 (with x2 item )and my ship not have enough mood to receive exp bonus ( 20% bonus if the mood over 120)
if you want to focus player spend more time in the game, make the mood always high is recommend

[proven hedge]

That's already reality, that's what the dorm second floor is for

[raven crater]

TBH with the high efficiency combat plan it's still not enough. Source: experience

[fallen stump]

Escort fleet duplicate is this a bug or game mechanic?

[frigid swan]

Pretty sure it spawns so you cant just send a fleet in and leave it so you dont have to kill it

[fierce ember]

adding tag for "limit break possible" or alike would also fit in here
i will DM bot later when forms are up

[potent nimbus]

Add another option to let us switch missions

[rugged spire]

so u want to run 3 times then rest 1hour to recover mood ? it is uncomfortable to farm for 20min then rest for 1 hour and repeat.

[hearty crane]

I mean you don't need the 20% bonus XP. Putting in second allows you quite a few rums before 0 mood. The x2 is more to speed up point/ship grind.

[scenic flower]

Another suggestion for the search mode. Let player choose the number of cycles, so the game would play on auto without our interference and until the moment, when all the cycles are ended and the loot summary will be shown.

[cinder stirrup]

it's been 2 years since we last saw Mullany and Kimberly

[raven crater]

That's because one of them is banned on the Discord server

[viscid moon]

Suggestion: Can more info be given on ships when they're introduced on Twitter? Not sure if this is the right venue since it's not technically the game. But basically I'd like it more similar to the detail given on the JP twitter

[naive cobalt]

Info like what?

[raven crater]

Like the introductory quotes/descriptions JP has

[viscid moon]

Usually a little blurb on the character of the shipgirl, and something on how to get her (construction, drop, etc)

Like that. Though I appreciate that Japan has the advantage of needing fewer characters to do so

[naive cobalt]

Impossible due to character limit

[viscid moon]

I'd be fine, personally, with doing a two-tweet chain for an intro. Keep the first one concise and give me information on the other one. Again, this is just an idea on how I think would be better

[naive cobalt]

Personally to me it seems kinda messy, but I'll let staff know about your idea

[raven crater]

Maybe put the text onto the image somehow, kind of like this https://twitter.com/AzurLane_EN/status/1354626108558249984

But like, do it for the intro too, not just the skin

[viscid moon]

Oh, that would be interesting.

[naive cobalt]

That would require completely reworking the template and you'll still only have so much to put
But it is something I pushed for before, maybe I'll have better luck this time

[raven crater]

Maybe something like this

[naive cobalt]

btw in the meantime - they do post ships' quotes with facebook posts

Nyano pls

[viscid moon]

Using facebook tho

Sorry, had to reset my computer

I'm joking of course.

[merry grove]

When is the release of PR 5 ships? So I can buy Mainz's first skin...

[random path]

Anything L2D(it's moving so why not?), Party Dress, Combat Uniform > Bikini, Qi Pao, Kimono(unless IJN), the rest are irrelevant attires IMO.

But I prefer a proper combat uniform for each girls. Reason why I like KMS since most of them are looking sharp(and lood) at the same time.

Include Academy and Casual attire for a must have.

[warm hare]

Probably PR5s will get skins before Mainz does

[scenic flower]

There is still one empty slot in PR3 left.

[raven crater]

1. make sure you upvote this #collected-feedback message
2. Technically you aren't wasting the coins anyway since the operation will still be there next month, people just won't be able to join until then.

[arctic siren]

Can the game have a better composer? The OST as a whole seems kinda weak compared to kancolle

[quasi cedar]

loads lmg with religious intent

[raven crater]

I actually think AL's soundtrack is quite good

[covert brook]

You sure you're listening to the correct OST?

[arctic siren]

The main screen ost though, it just seems bad that I muted the game for it

[covert brook]

Then your opinion is incomplete.

[scenic flower]

Main theme really sux.

[covert brook]

It really doesn't. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it's bad.

[scenic flower]

And I muted it too.

[arctic siren]

Nvm most are pretty decent but I feel that they could be better

Main theme still sucks

Maybe I'm just spoiled by the good ost I had at other games

[covert brook]

Azur Lane's OST is fine the way it is. It has its bangers, but nothing actually "sucks".

[velvet adder]

Give Players more SR development gear packs offer or Give players more ability to buy SR gears using real life cash

[raven crater]

Main theme OST is fine but it does get repetitive having listened to it for a couple years now lol. I like that they occasionally switch it up but maybe a function to let us change to any of the main menu themes at any time would be nice

[scenic flower]

Actually, it shouldn't be the problem of a taste. They just have to make us choose the OST, including the tracks from various skins, gear, etc.

And unbind these tracks from skins and gear, just make them unlockable when we get this stuff.

[covert brook]

I smell P2W territory.

[fleet harness]

I'd rather they gave us the ability to enhance cats while they are used in OPsiren. Spending your fleet deployment twice to enhance a cat is kinda wasteful.

[real rivet]

have the option of sorting ashes bosses from oldest first. new ashes bosses are piling up and leaving old ones lingering unchallenged for a long time

[hasty mountain]

I do have a problem with how the game's OSTs loops
pretty much all event/map BGM I've bothered to enable sound to listen to cut/fade-out instead of looping seamlessly
that's... not how videogame bgm should go 🧐

[reef basin]

please add clearing mode to SOS like hard modes. there's so many daily chores now

[raven crater]

I stopped doing SOS during original run of Iris of Light and Dark and have never touched it since then because the drops suck and it takes so long, plus 1 to Raion's comment

[reef basin]

well, there's new forced relevance with SOS because the Bidder torps require a purple torp you can only get from SOS and the weekly

[raven crater]

SOS is so dull and unrewarding I'm just going to use subpar torps, that's how much I hate it

[hasty mountain]

easier/quicker way to restart a map on operation siren? right now you have to exit the current map by clicking outside he map, then enter another one (say, a port), then exit that one by clicking outside, then go back to the original one

[woeful comet]

Almost every good piece of gear needs a crapton of these drops. At the end of the first OPS reset I'm swimming in every other material but I never have enough of these to make anything. Every aircraft, AA gun, and some larger guns require these. Please increase the drop rate or have some shop for exchanging these mats, or upgrading purple to gold.

[raven crater]

@woeful comet You should submit this via Belfast 👀

[merry grove]

Too much guild coins and nothing to buy... please increase the items in the guild shop and decrease the time needed to refresh, let us manual refresh more than once too.

[velvet adder]

wait until u see the dock upgrade cost

[rugged spire]

reduce ashe coordinate cost to summon Hyryumeta, it take so long to do 200 coordinate even with daily quest

[merry grove]

It increases every level?

[covert brook]

It...takes literally 5 minutes to get 200 coordinates, the hell are you doing?

[hearty crane]

Wait until you see the cat discount cost... (and then not buy it since who the heck wants that over more slots. Why does it exist, why is it the most expensive guild upgrade, whyyy?)

[velvet adder]

what

i just enter corrsion 6 zone then pick up the floating items and get max then leave repeat

[rugged spire]

?i done my quest, i get about 60 coord, then i need to farmmap for 140 coord that take over 1 hour ?

[raven crater]

I think you need #gameplay-help more than #game-feedback

[nocturne flicker]

Suggestion: add an option in automatic mode for the game to run at accelerated speed

[hasty mountain]

I'd like a sorting option for morale

[nocturne flicker]

skills activating at half speed, ships at twice the speed and time running faster

[scenic flower]

I have more problems to say 'Ying'.

[nocturne flicker]

dm belfast not working

[pure gyro]

It is good to see the smaller factions getting some attention. First Sardegna Empire and now Dragon Empery getting some additions. Now just crossing my fingers for Northern Parliament. :3

[raven crater]

She's working for me.

[ornate basin]

did you try using the latter option she gives?

[ornate basin]

yes so please try the 2nd part of what she says

[raven crater]

Try typing it in the server first to get her to see you, and then try DMing her if that doesn't work. I was having an issue getting her to respond to !submit in the server but after I did that and then DMd her submit it worked

[ornate basin]

if you cant exactly seem to find what that is

!submit command in #bot-spam

[raven crater]

There's some issue with the forms module sending the DM after typing !submit in the server, not sure exactly what it is, but I DMd the dev about it so hopefully he can fix it when he wakes up

But if you can get her to see your DM, it works fine

[frank lodge]

well, I more suggest that for name consistency to not make us confuse

[merry grove]

Ships with multiple skins auto rotates between different skins when you set them as secretary

[hasty mountain]

the siren factory/port kinda devices, the ones you can supply with 1 energy thing or 2 tokens, is there any reason why it has to spawn two fleets on it before you can use it?
I just feel like it wastes too much time, especially since it's the siren structure that already takes the longest to use just from all the dialogue you need to skip through and the animations showing you what each offering unlocked on the map

[hearty crane]

Idea, Popular

[hearty crane]

Though between then and now you implemented a faction search which turns up nothing half the time (since only main factions got cats) and the other half has dubious use so...

[formal oyster]

https://trello.com/c/6KsntLkC/1332-more-improvements-for-the-auto-search-feature
Could we add an "Elite-only mode" to this card. As name implies, an auto-search mode that would only kills Elite before retreating, for Siren farming in events for example.

[void schooner]

Auto-search already prioritizes Elites, so fleets will attack them first before anything else if they're on the map.

[formal oyster]

That's not what I'm asking, thought it was pretty clear

[covert brook]

You're...doing this wrong, man.The quests themselves give about 40 coordinates, the other 160 you get from clearing the map the quest takes part in.

[frank lodge]

please change Ying Swei name to Ying Rui. Ying Rui looks 500% better to hear and also for consistency like how other server tell her name. changing her name will 100% make us confused.

Ying Swei spelling is so ugly, smh

[ruby robin]

not sure if this fits more under bug or not, but the UI for the Academy seems to be a smidge too high? cuts off part of the corner buttons and looks a bit too cramped considering we can pan on scene anyway

[cloud sable]

Can we get clarification on what the "retrieve sources from enhanced fleets" requirement for stars is

it seems like alot of people have been asking about it but nobody knows the answer

[ornate shuttle]

Spelling error

[covert brook]

...where, exactly?

[ornate shuttle]

Go into dorm, press sort, and press try to save a new custom theme

[covert brook]

It just saves.

[ornate shuttle]

Lemme record it, hot sec

Oops

[covert brook]

10/10

[static needle]

the operation monthly limit is kind of dumb. there should be a notice before starting that we already are on the limit

now most of us stuck with an operation that no one can touch

[ornate shuttle]

@covert brook after a few tries, finally figured out how to use OBS

Bruh why is it so small

[covert brook]

All this for a missing letter nobody even cares about.

[ornate shuttle]

[barren mantle]

[velvet adder]

u have it to screen capture and not game capture maybe

[hearty crane]

#bug-reports btw

[hasty mountain]

I see people commenting on the ying swei/ying rui thing, what about the other dragon ships that already have written names that don't quite match how they are said? yat sen, tai yuan
if it is gonna use one or other system for their names it should at least be consistent

[dense frigate]

weird idea. How about an option to retire ships at thje reward screen after auto battles?

[undone swift]

New dorm food that can last for a month.idc if its cost gems.

[raven crater]

That really has nothing to do with the food and more to do with the max gauge size.

[naive cobalt]

Littorio is event ship that came back

so the answer is yes

[covert brook]

Yes, events do get reruns.

You just happened to return during the Sardine rerun.

[naive cobalt]

there's no "switch"
events are run whenever they are run
then, after a long while they are "re-run" and then later they get added to permanent pool

no, currency is removed after event ends
and #gameplay-help is more suited for asking questions

[covert brook]

If we're using Littorio as an example, you can save your stuff until she eventually gets added to the permanent building pool sometime soon™

Wiki exists. It should provide you with all the info you're seeking here.

[naive cobalt]

then wait till they are available permanently
cannot help beyond that

[covert brook]

You're just unlucky to have asked in the wrong places and worded your feedback wrong.

Again. Wiki exists. It will provide you with all the info you need.

This example right here is why "GPH bad" is sort of a meme around ALO.

[naive cobalt]

"I want to have things I don't" is not really a feedback we can do anything with, especially after I outlined the process how past events ships get available especially after I told you this is wrong place if you have questions and you just said "nah"

So please, if you have further questions, ask them in #gameplay-help or if you want to talk about the game as fellow fans, there's #al-general

no need to

[south sequoia]

Just an addendum on the Ying Rui/Ying Swei thing, it looks like she's called Ying Swei here to maintain internal consistency with the other older Chinese prewar ships, since all their names use the Wade-Giles romanisation. So Yat Sen instead of Yixian, Chao Ho instead of Zhaohe, Ying Swei instead of Yingrui.

[ruby robin]

I'm sure I've seen this a time or two in here but a sort by limit break for dock or perhaps an easier way to parse the fleet tech "chibi" room would be neat
