Arpeggio of Blue Steel: What's next?

[Firefly2021]

As some of you may know the current ARP event ends on the 1st of May (Today) to make space for hopefully a new ARP mission filled with goodies to be had very soon.

 At this current stage we've had:

 

Battleships

Kongou (ARP Kongo)

Haruna (ARP Haruna)

Hiei (ARP Hiei)

 

Cruisers

Myoko (ARP Myoko)

 

So does anyone have any preferences on what they'd like to see next?

 

Disclaimer: This was created to talk about the next ARP ship release and what you would like to see.

[Burnt_Pies]

Didn't the SEA server get Kirishima+captain, and a standalone Iona? I suspect that's what we'll be seeing.

 

As to what I'd like to see... other cruisers. Takao especially, though I suspect it's unlikely we'll be given a free copy of the Atago. If the anime's shown any non-IJN fog ships so far, perhaps some of them. (I haven't watched the latest movie yet, but I read quite far in the manga. If we're talking Manga ships, Vampire all the way. she's adorable!)

[AnotherDuck]

I want Takao and Ashigara. Takao is a bit trickier due to Atago, but Ashigara is another Myoko cruiser, so she shouldn't pose any problems.

 

Agreeing with Vampire. Yukikaze would also be fun. She's tricksy.

[Xerkics]

There is supposed to be something " better " planned for May so arp is on hold till June I think

[Varian_Dorn]

Kirishima (with "Captain" Yotarou), Takao (if possible with changeable camo "Fleet of Fog Red" and "Blue Steel Blue") and... Musashi. Also, Kongo's original voice please - 'cause she's awesome.

[_Eurasia_]

There is supposed to be something " better " planned for May so arp is on hold till June I think

 

I hope not, they could easily run it next to the planned events of may, as it would be another 2 months event. Ah well, more time for Doom and Overwatch i guess.

I personally hope to see Takao but as we have the Atago (Takao-class) as a prem ship i highly doubt it, so probarly Kirishima and Haguro.

 

Though i must admit a small part of me hopes to see the manga ships too, Fletcher, Iowa, Lexinton and Bischmark when the german BB line is done™.

plis gib takao tsundere-class cruiser and maya-waifu

Just to confirm for ya, Cadenza didn't show any non-IJN ships, it mainly focused on the two Superbattleships, Yamato and Musashi, as well as the 4 Myoko's (Also the original lot, but that's pretty much a given).

Unlucky then.

• Any news on collaboration with other media like Kantai Collection stuff or Haifuri? 
  • For now we are content with ARP – and as a heads up, on EU we will take a short break from ARP missions for May, as we will have something even better coming.

[Varian_Dorn]

In the lead-up to Cadenza, there's a Fletcher-class Fog DD.

[lankylad11_lankylad]

I would like to see new arpeggio ships not of the kongo/myoko class.  for example the nagato/takao class.  people already have kongo/myoko.  we need something more

[StuntMan0369]

Unlucky then.

 

Oh wow, someone actually asked about Haifuri? Didn't think people would mention this one so early!

Well from the anime we have:

• Ise class (Hyuuga)
• Kongo class (Kongo, Hiei, Haruna, Hirishima)
• Myoko class (Myoko, Haguro, Ashigara, Nachi)
• Atago class (Takao, Maya)
• Yamato class (Yamato, Musashi)
• Nagara class (Nagara, Natori, Yura)
• Fletcher class (Melvin)
• Set-toku class (I-400, I-401, I-402)
• Type IXD2 U-Boat (I-501)

 

From the manga we also have:

• Atago class (Atago)
• Ise class (Ise)
• Bismarck class (Bismarck)
• Lexington class (Lexington)
• Nagato class (Nagato)
• V-W class (Vampire)
• Renown class (Repulse)
• Type XXI U-Boat (U-2501)
• Kagerou class (Yukikaze)
• Shokaku class (Zuikaku)

 

Judging by how the initial ships we're made, i guess only the anime one are going to be implemented.

[Nishizumi77]

^ Takao-class not Atago

 

In may the Apreggio missions will take a short break what WG taff said, because there will be some other mission in May but arp mission will continue most likely in June.

What will come for sure:

-Kirishima

-3 more Myoko-class ship from movie: Haguro, Nachi, Ashigara.

Haguro is already in the game files, I put her skin on regular Myoko while I grinded Mogami

 

 

Until then I recommend to have a look on J.A.K MBT modpack. It is an installer similar to Aslain and contains many Arp mods: selectable official Iona, Haruna, Kirishima voices ( what you can hear when playing the ships ) added to replace the original voice for all ships, gui mods and many ship skins, like the mighty Yamato and Musashi from the movie.

when did bismark appear in the manga? all I remember is one line in that weird thing at the end where the charachters were discussing how the manga was made

[Varian_Dorn]

Bismarck actually has 2 mental models, simultanously, as far as I know.

[gbgroger]

how about just no. Not all like anime in Wows.

were they male or female?

because the fogs mental models were supposedly all female because they were reffered to in legal documents as female. bismark scharnhorst and pretty much all the german raiders were reffered to as male by their crew so this has given me a huge amount of curiocity

[Spellfire40]

how about just no. Not all like anime in Wows.

 Just about dont select the Anime habor and never see any of the Anime ships? Not  that the missions didt gave tons of goody that were good for anybody? Just because you dont like them dosent means ist nice to deney a large crowd who either dont care that they are brightly colored or like it not to get their Content. And that dosnt even take in about  mods that Change the apearance for your Purist faction..

They're both female. They only appeared in the manga incredibly briefly, but are mentioned more in connection with the Admirality Code. I don't think they've actually done anything in the manga at all, but they are the flagship of the Scapa Flow fleet (German ship, leading a fleet named after a UK Naval Base?).

 

Here's their wiki page for more info; http://aokihagane.wikia.com/wiki/Bismarck

I want to see Takao-sama the Tsundere-class Heavy Cruiser as the next ARP reward.

 

I-It's not like I like her or something, idiot! >_<

[it3llig3nc3]

Based on the Asia server event that is just getting finished, there are quite nice ships on the stock...

Below missions were running in Asia recently - probably this is what we will get next...

This is my first post on the WOWS forum. If this is not in the right place to mention this, I apologise in advance.

I've just acquired the ARP Haruna and Hiei. The problem is, I don't understand the Japanese audio during gameplay, which can be a bit of a disadvantage - I can maybe guess at what is being said. Do you think there is any chance of an English-with-Japanese-accent audio being made available? I appreciate that this may seem slightly petty, but would be interested if anybody finds this a similar irretation?
