Let us discuss and appreciate all things about the mobile video game Azur Lane like proper gentlemen who have given themselves over to the pursuit and command of warships made manifest as cute and beautiful girls with our fellow /vmg/ peers!

Be advised the above poster is a schizo turbo faggot that's haunted our hollows for eight (8) years(!). He ""hates"" Azur Lane. This is his effort to that end. He's completely ineffectual and harmless but every other word out of his mouth is bullshit and any further discourse after this advisory is likely with himself. A regular tactic he employs. He hates the quiet. It reminds him of his neglect filled childhood. Pic related released the last event before the current one, btw.

Every season 4 rainbow equipment was possible even when focusing on face research in the beginning then switching to rigging research once everyone is at Dev30. Except I always end up seeing so many excess ship blueprints that it seemed like a waste. I decided to focus fully on getting rainbow weapon this time around. Only 1 ship is at Dev30 at the moment.

Actual quality so far. I don't know how they did it but pressing Shift allows you to sprint and Space allows you to jump through emulator. NPC actually move and not teleport if they are joining your conversation. Like when I was speaking with Joan, O'Brien actually walked all the way to our spot and then moved back to her original position once we were done.
>>
>>
>>1850641
Yes on MuMu. You also don't see the touch screen effect when pressing shift or space, it's as if it's really tied to those keys. There is actually no sprint button to touch on screen but there's a jump button on the right side.

Whenever I look at this list, I always wonder how they calculate their sizes. Characters like Franklin feel like they should be ranked higher. I also recall Hakuryuu being placed much higher, which makes me think the list considers their newest skins, and yet Illustrious isn’t using her latest skin here. In the end, it seems the placements mostly reflect the creator’s personal bias rather than any consistent method.

Really dumb how little there is to do in game and how long the timegates are for reruns. For context, got all the PR ships unlocked and cleared 16-4 before the laffey II rerun in under a year doing nothing but a little operation siren grinding every few weeks and just doing dailies + spamming free xp packs to get a few ships to 125.
Also was sick of hearing about laffey II when Z52 absolutely powercrept her in every way. There’s enough UR ships now that you can just pick who you like and ignore any meta bullshit. You absolutely do not need laffey II or any particular ship to get far in this png collector. Way too many retarded whale faggots who havent even cleared W13 but feel they can dictate a meta from their discord fiefdoms

META botes worked in beginning as some half assed attempt at storytelling in azur lane, but we all know where that went.
By design the META botes are inferior to their normal versions but its all style over substance over there and they don’t do a great job at implementing any waifu aspect to it either.
The animation budget would be better spent on a few short stories in the setting focused around a group of characters in some kind of historically accurate battlegroups. instead of manjuu’s autism forcing in 800+ characters into 30 minute episodes to shill the gacha at a speedrunner’s pace that made slow ahead not do too well.

This is my issue. There are so damn many characters that they just get lost in the story. If they had organized it more by battle group or something, I don't know, made the story more about the factions maybe the jillions of botes wouldn't be an issue.

Game is decade old, there is little benefit for them to pour more money into it if they can just let it on auto pilot mode, if AP flopped it would be more likely for them to drain even more of AL resources to fix it or develop whatever they are planning next.

while there was no clear cut, heavy cruisers tended to have more displacement than light cruisers, despite both having the same maximum displacement in the naval treaties.
And yes, the distinction is based on their guns, but bigger guns have more weight and need more space, which may result in a bigger ship, which again displaces more.

They really need to just let us 1 tap clear daily hard mode maps. Shit takes at least 5 min for the 3 clears even with a good fleet on safe. Since you're not just killing the boss, but the boss + three triangle fleet before them.

Is Azur Lane worth getting back into? I think I stopped during the first pasta rerun, definitely at some point after the first Gridman collab. I remember running out of dock space but other than that things were generous

>>

I wanted more coom but it was like 20gb for my phone, so looks like it'd have to be picking an emulator once again
There's still generous rolling resources and wishing wells, and event reruns? No being horribly behind on any sort of meta and getting punished for it?

Such a vast array of erotica to choose from that some men from antiquity would sell their souls for, and you as a man, willingly choose to debase yourself with cocks. This is the reality of the cuckold porn addict.

Is the game worth picking up again?
I played the game for about 2–3 years, until shortly after Shimakaze was released, when I had to drop it due to time constraints (and I had already been soft-retired from the game for about a year at that point).
How has the game changed since then?
Back then they tried pushing the story a bit harder, did they stick with that?
I’ve seen a lot of coom focused designs pop up since then, and while I’m not opposed to that, did it change anything relevant?
>>
>>1974525
>did the game change
in terms of the main gameplay feature not really, they did add another mode that is pretty much a farming sim or something along those lines, if you enjoy that type of thing it might be worth it but if not then don't bother with it, there is also 3D dorm and TB mode but those are dependent on how much you like the girls in them at the moment
>did they stick with it
yes and no, yes in terms of them they really made a lot of the events be big lore events but in recent years they made it easier to skip it since it no longers interrupts your farming and recently more events don't take place in the main plot even including the recent UR event, I would say go to a wiki page about an event you missed near shimas to see how much you like the general direction the story took
>did it change anything relevant
it certainly made it so the vast majority of skins are heavily more coom focused, so its another case of what you prefer
>somewhat relevant thing not related to your initial question
if you do plan on giving it another try they changed a bit about the account binding, can't really give you a detailed explanation but just know there is a chance what you used to bind your old account could not work so you will want to have a proof of purchase related to your account on hand just in case
>>

>>
>>1974620
as the other guy stated, if they were that afraid they wouldn't even have a nip event, I wouldn't mind them skipping the Sakuras for a UR but if they do it won't be because of whatever minor shit chinks are mad at now

KT want to separate XVV girls from classic DoA girls.
At this point I'm doubting if Honoka, Marie and Nyotengu will appear in their next fighting game.

At that point KT should just remove DoA in the title use VV like in those pictures. Some people were hoping to have an actual mix instead of just completely new ones when both DoA and VV are there.
People have been asking for classics like Ayane (who is pretty much the most used outside the DoA series, in games such as Ninja Gaiden, Dynasty Warriors, Warriors Orochi, RotTK, Fatal Frame, Senran Kagura, Destiny Child) or Momiji since the 2nd collab. Even Helena would've been an interesting addition just to have a human Helena in the port and see their interaction.
Overall some questionable choices in the characters included and you can't even say "they went with more popular girls" when Nanami is nowhere to be seen after 3 collabs.
