    Looks like they managed to up the UI responsiveness again according to preliminary feedback. Oh boy...

    Meh, I wouldn't care. If they store info they have my ID already anyway considering I've visited numerous times. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    It's probably more to combat gaming addiction and stuff among the youth since you actually need to be over 16 (I think) to get an ID in China. It's also not the only country that does stuff like this. South Korea has been doing this for quite a while I believe.

    No worries comrade. Just remember to sacrifice at least 2 goats to RNGesus tomorrow. On a more serious note, just a heads up for CN players: Starting from October 19th AL CN will require you to login with a name and a valid Chinese ID due to some law. Nothing to worry about too much tho, apparently you can just generate a valid ID on the internet. Do note that this is illegal and can technically speaking get you banned if you get caught. The legit way is a lot more tedious but obviously safer. Guide here:

    So basically you want people to farm damage and avoid playing the objective or sacrificing themselves for the win. That's different from the current economy how exactly? The problem is that the economy rewards bad behavior and often actually punishes game winning plays. And because this caters to the lowest possible denominator WG will not change that as rewarding objective and team based play instead of damage farming would instantly bankrupt 90% of the playerbase.

    The CV Captains Cabin

    There are really only two possibilities, Wasp and Yorktown. My guess is that Lex gets bumped down to T7 and Yorktown becomes the new T8.

    I know, I'm just staring in horror because my inner Touhou player is appalled at the lack of dodging. And well, that the damage is too high should've been obvious from just looking at the values to anyone who has some experience with the game.

    The players aren't even trying to dodge against ridiculously massed AA or approach from optimal angles yet get strikes through which would be considered incredibly effective even in the current iteration. I have no words. T6 CV play looks bland at best. I'm so glad I don't have to grind through those anymore. Then again the player isn't exactly the greatest one to say the least.

    Just saw a new CV rework gameplay video. Posted it here along with some of my thoughts on it: This came to me as I was watching: WG doesn't want me to use my "Starcraft skills"? Well that's too bad, I can play Touhou on Lunatic as well! Finally the frustrating months of gitting gud are paying off!

    Found a new gameplay video. As said in the video tho it might very well be a bit different to what we're gonna see in the test. A couple of notes for this video specifically: - CVs are WAY too fast in combat at the beginning. The first attack can literally happen within the first minute of a match. WG should probably restrict it by giving CVs initial service time like current ones. - Generally speaking damage is way too high for the "rate of fire" we're getting. I expect this to change heavily. - Plane reserves regenerate over time. Interesting concept really, but I don't see this as having any impact considering the time it takes to attack. - AA seems very weak tbh, but then again these are bots so time will tell how much full AA builds hurt. Tho I'm not a fan of having to specialize against what is supposed to be a core mechanic in the first place. It has failed thoroughly in the current iteration, I don't see it working out any better in the rework. Also the "intensify AA on one side" mechanic isn't in that build. - Aircraft spotting is now LoS based on both sides. Hiding your planes behind islands and using cover to attack is now a viable strategy. - Fighters follow your planes around apparently, so basically fighters are completely useless for air cover but can be used to shoot down catapult planes. Overall from a pure CV gameplay point of view I think it looks pretty good. Balancing is going to be the hard part as we've probably all expected. As it is now it's actually a ridiculous buff to CVs (emphasis on AS IT IS NOW) which quite frankly isn't needed.

    Considering AA has been reworked completely we can always hope that they've scaled it better this time. Right? Right guys? Guys? Why are you looking at me like that?

    If CV positioning remains the same as before (which it really should) you won't need repair. Use DCP!

    @Aotearas Follow up: Yeah, if you don't bind your account then use another bound one to login your "guest" save gets overwritten with no chance of recovery. Binding your account then using that to login is perfectly save tho as your progress remains the same. Two trivias: - I see they changed the app icon from Saratoga to BEST WAIFU for EN. I approve. :D - If you're starting the game for the first time on any device you are literally forced to play through the tutorial as the option to login via bound account doesn't exist at the beginning. This makes you create an account just so you can login with your bound one. That's actually really stupid. (Unless I missed the option to login at the beginning? Don't think so tho.)
  18. El2aZeR
    So I used a Twitter account to login. Nothing changed in regards of progress despite the warning. Will check if it holds true if I use it on a second device (aka another emulator instance). I think the warning is because you are technically speaking playing as a "guest" until binding your account (as I didn't have to create one in the first place, on CN you just create an account and everything is automatically bound), thus the save is stored locally. If you then login with a bound account the save file for the guest account is overwritten. So say someone uses your current emulator instance to login to a different account, your progress would then get erased unless you've bound your account as well. At least that's the only theory that somewhat makes sense. Still checking tho so hold your horses.

    This is why CV rework is so important...

    El2aZeR replied to P2Win's topic in General Discussion

    Which still means the majority of the enemy team was way more useful than the majority of OPs team. Your math skills are astounding, really. Also it's easy to selfishly farm exp when your team is losing, especially in a Zao. You should know.
  20. El2aZeR
    The hell? That literally makes no sense at all. Tell you what, I'm gonna create an account and see if it really resets the progress completely or if that is just some warning that you'll lose progress if you're currently in battle or something. Will report back in a few hours.

    CV rework - are they going to start at T6?

    El2aZeR replied to Fat_Maniac's topic in General Discussion

    The problem I see with that is that escort CVs are WAY too slow for anything T6+. That said, starting the line at T6 seems reasonable. Just sucks for any new player that wants to try CVs but doesn't want to go through a lengthy grind through other ships.

    El2aZeR replied to P2Win's topic in General Discussion

    All enemy players earned over 1k exp. At least half of the enemy team earned over 1,5k. Meanwhile 2/3rds of your team, including the majority of your most influential ships, couldn't even get over 1k. To say that you would've lost regardless is an understatement.

    I'm pretty sure they just raffled access from different pools (one pool for current CVs that received mail, one pool for everyone). Trying to handpick from a few thousand applicants across multiple servers is tedious and quite frankly a waste of manpower.

    So they kept meme bombs. I don't even... Also anything but a 1 CV per team should pretty much equal the current spotting situation.
