Releases August next year.

Extremely expensive though as should be kinda expected. Runs at around 420€ over here.

 

I've seen preorders earlier of that, but price is tad... not for my wallet

But yes, figure is neat indeed

[LOZFFVII]

420€ is nothing.

This was over 800£.

Whish I had the money while it was still on sale.

Twitter updates:

Maintenance Pt1:

Apparently, the Merchant, Canteen and Lecture Hall are also being given upgrade cap increases to lvl12.

I don't think anyone asked for that, but I doubt anyone's complaining.

Those upgrades will be the next things on my list after Poi Pooch Retro.

 

Maintenance Pt2:

 

Fusou META:

Difficult to tell if she still has catapaults in this design, so we don't know if she's going to be BB or BBV.

Be prepared for her to be crap if she's a BBV, though.

At the same time, I've found her expressions oddly alluring

Oh boy, tomorrow will be busy. Arknights get new UI and new event.

AL will have new stuff and GI next event stage is also there.

 

And I've yet to finish the stuff in WoWs

Considering some people struggle with oil or coins, why not?

Poi can wait tbh. I'll do the other stuff first.

 

Regarding the lvl cap. I just realized the only ship sitting on 3 mio EXP lvl 120 in my fleet is Perseus

I can only spot 4 turrents tho.

Maybe she'll be like Chikuma, having the planes as skill rather than equipment.

And I've bought D2 remaster and got hit by nostalgia train, so trying to balance all that out, even on day off might be trickier than usual 

[LOZFFVII]

Well, the update dropped and though we had some issues for a couple of hours it looks like the worst of it is over.

Event actually ends this Sunday instead of the traditional Thursday. I wonder why they decided to extend it by three days?

 

Poi Pooch is retrofitted as far I can before needing the Eau de Barbecue (which is a hilarious retrofitting item, tbh).

I got a huge boost in coinage while accepting all of the bonuses for upgrading my Tech Levels, so I spent them on uncapping several ships to lvl125 and on the first of the two new upgrades to the Canteen/Merchant/Lecture Hall.

I'm down to 21k, which is enough to also get the lvl12 upgrades for both Merchant and Canteen. Which I am tempted to do, both because fully retrofitting Poi Pooch will take another week and because of the following:

 

Although reading it again, I realise that we'll only be getting these bonuses in the next maintenance. So I might as well still wait on the final upgrades.

200 Gems, 6000oil, 50,000coins. Mihoyo, eat your goddamn heart out.

How dare you bullying smol indie company that made only 2bln dollars in revenue, while Azur Lane is perpetually overfunded by perpetually horny teenagers who see booba->buy, thus can afford throwing free stuff at players

The XP packs are rather welcomed, I was afraid they would do much but they are a good source to get event ships up and running without having to nanny then.

I was expecting her retrofit item to be something meat related but this is on a new level. What is even better is that her upgrade item is actually a thing you can order online.

 

[Panocek]

 

Actually good guy Yostar

[Pururut]

Pre registration for Blue Archive begins at 14th of October. I heard some questionable stuff about its publisher and developer but hopefully it will be a long term alternative to azur lane. At this stage any new gacha with a proper story is welcome. 

[Zemeritt]

Hats off for the AL support.

I purchased the pass before the maintenance and therefor didn't get access to the pass.

They resolved it within 4 hours without much hassle.

 

Also pushing myself into W13, since I got all from the current event with 50k points.

Seems like my fleet can auto 13-3 fine, so farming Dewey is on the table now.

 

Arknight: Cleared the maps, although the Emperor Blade was somewhat annoying at first

But the amount of story Also made 1x 10 pull, got Toddifons. So I'm happy

 

GI: finished the Moonchase event. Now just the last thing in 3 days and it's 100%

The story, meh. not gonna spoil anything here.

[WWDragon]

Fusou META acquired.

[LOZFFVII]

Just3c's latest analysis - Sep 30 patch and new retrofit/ship review.

 

Yuudachi is now top-tier tank DD. Also capable of matching Drake for damage (poor powercrept Drake). Drake still better tank though, because CA. (I'm guessing this info must have come from data mining, as there's no way he could already have her retrofit)

This animation for Poi Pooch Retro is adorable.

Fusou META is a dissapointment. Not worth investing in (considering how much of an investment it is). Unfortunately, this info came a bit late for me, as I already invested all of my firepower items into her.

Wish this event had a couple more chapters. It was very good.

 

[Marblehead_1]

Considering how they impoved CG of Fuso META to the Fuso I started to hope that it's possible to upgrade more of older CG's which let's say honest maybe aren't as low as Shibafu but still are very unimpresive.

I made same with Fuso META and used all Firepower and Reload items Anyway I like all of BBV's in game and use them widely ( Ise and Hyuga lvl 125 200 affinity  with Suisei BBV variant ofc at 13 stars ) and I was suprised that new Fuso isn't BBV.

Well the Ise's were converted to hybrids but the Fusou's were only scheduled to be converted but never were, so far META ships been ships that were sunk so Fusou being a normal battleship is not that surprising. It only expected because ... well, Fusou in the game is retrofitted into one, the other META ships are also based on ships that have retrofits (even if Ark Royal only got her after), there is also the rarity stuff but honestly I think the main problem with Fusou META is getting a kinda mediocre Epic with increase operational costs, even for new players they likely get their hands on Epic BBs before they get Fusou (since Nelson is pretty much given away if you dont get her to drop before that) that kinda limits her uses, I hope they get buffed because even if META are for OpSi, they unfortunately compete with PR ships in the same niche.

I'm not even certain what to think. I mean I struggle to use up all of my oil after completing all of my weekly missions come Monday/Tuesday.

But there's also going to be an oil cap system added to auto clearing? And it basically stops any oil being used beyond the cap? How in the world does that work?

I guess this is intended to make things easier for newbies, and that's not a bad thing (not in the slightest), but for someone who's already drowning in resources it seems kinda extreme?

I suppose, given that the devs are throwing oil at us, that I can now just steamroll everything with a fleet full of URs instead of actually spending time micromanaging my oil efficiency.

I was already planning to put together a near-full UR IJN fleet as soon as I get Poi Pooch Plus and a maxed out Hakuryuu as my PvP attacking fleet, now the devs are basically letting me put this fleet into action in PvE, too.

 

I'm not even going to joke about comparing Manjuu/Yostar with miHoYo anymore, as there just isn't a contest at this point.

From what I've gathered, some people got buttsore you no longer gain fuel from scrapping ships, which supposedly "broke" exploit of farming fuel in 2-1 or something like that?

Yes but they are already addressing that in the next maintence compensation.

 

This looks more that they dont like how fuel consumption is making people play the game so they changed it so oil consumption is within a expected curve and also that people arent trying to game the system in such a way because 0 fuel 2-1 farming is just incredible dull and prone to people using scripts to do it that certainly isnt good for their servers, they could just leave it alone because they sell oil and we all know how games with stamina systems really push towards buying extended time, instead they corrected what they think its a issue with their overall game design goals instead of just monetize everything, like other certain companies, that is very much applaudable.

Yes, its also a way to get Emergency Commissions to trigger so you could have a fleet running at no cost, you just needed a fleet of a Lv70 common DD and then a lv70 CV as I think those are cheaper to run that a BB, it would cost 2-4 oil per battle? it was low enough that it was entirely sustainable.

Again, I can't believe people needed to exploit the game in order to gain oil.

The only times I've ever been low on oil is after spending the first two days of an event grinding the stages for the cosmetic banner. Most of my late-game grinding is efficient enough to do what I need to get done every day.

But then maybe these same buttsore folks are no-life NEETs who have literally nothing better to do everyday?

 

Oh well, in any case I'm sure new players will find these new things to be extremely beneficial, and we should be encouraging more new players into the game.
