/jp/ - Otaku Culture

How is your preparation for the event coming along? Are you going for kuso babby tier mode or insane mode?

Stop samefagging OP, we already have a thread >>13344573

Keep reporting this thread.

>>13345048
Hard hopefully.

>>13345055
>we
Fuck off.

>>13345055
Hah! What's stopping me from reporting yours kcg fag?

>>13345055
>Samefagging

What's with these retarded thread wars?

The samefagging is going all out in the other thread.

I hope this thread finally stays.
It's really disheartening to see a userbase treated like shit, especially when it's something big like Kancolle.

>>13345048
[x] 50k resources are enough
[ ] 100k fuel, ammo, and steel
[ ] 300k all
[x] 500 buckets
[ ] 1000 buckets
[x] Enough ships for two carrier combined fleets with lockouts
[x] All over them over level 80
[x] Enough reppuus, reppus, repus, repuus, and so on
[ ] Plenty of +10 and +accuracy lower caliber battleship guns
[No Taigei] Combat ready seaplane tender, Katori, Akashi, Taigei as sub tender, and Akitsumaru
[x] Maruyu-fed ships with good torpedoes for the inevitable yasen final boss cut-in roulette
[x] More than 5 ship slots available and sufficient win rate to sortie
[ ] 100% win rate as required by autism
[x] At least one testicle or ovary, which means doing every map on hard

What will be the italian boat like?
A useless dyke, a chuuni or some pasta maniac? Place your bets.

>>13345393
>[No Taigei]

>>13345478
Pasta maniac.

>>13345478
Genki Bismarck

>>13345478
Weeb pasta maniac.

>>13345478
>What will be

>>13345393
>>13345480
Taigei is useless outside of being fat in the right places.

>>13345478
>boat

>>13345478
All 3 of them

>>13345517
Would you say she's quite... tender?

Oh my fucking god, getting through 2-4 costed me my house, my family, my kids and all of my life savings. When do I get to the point where I have unlimited resources?

>>13345506
Yesterday I sparkled four naked girls, no misses. Felt nice after multiple runs where equipped DDs would get D rank.

>>13345543
>costed

>using a spammer's thread
disgusting

Someone make an official thread.

>>13345550
Cost me. I'm sorry, how can I make my grammatical wrongdoing up to you?

>>13345543
/jp/ told me to go with 4BB2CV and I just stomped the map at my first serious try.

>>13345007
>tfw my pastebin still isn't in OP
Oh well.

>>13345556
Nice try, spammer.

>>13345572
Oh right, sorry about that. Will add it in next thread's OP.

>>13345558
Give me four BBs and an Urakaze and I'll forget the whole thing.

>>13345626
Urakaze a shit though.
I think I might go sink mine now

>>13345639
Well, yeah, but she's so cute and sexy. I wish more of the ships had those lovely white elbow gloves that she and Shimakaze have.

>>13345512
Someone say pasta?

I'm going to get Yuudachi and Shigure to Kai Ni at least, but should I even bother with trying to level my CV(L)s at this point? Maybe I should get Ashigara and Haguro to Kai Ni and stop at that until the event?

>>13345478
Chubby suntanned italian mama.

>>13345670
I really like the spaghetti fairy. I hope that the BB comes with DDs like Bismarck, and hopefully they will have that uniform.

>>13345668
>Having a glove fetish
http://exhentai.org/g/683954/d200db5b0a/

Now that I'm at 300k all, 3000 buckets and 3000 devmats, all kai 2 ships, three k2 sendais, every CA(V) at at least 75, every CVL at 80, every CV at 80, every BB(V) at 99 and precisely zero shits to give about ranking, there isn't much to do.

>>13345693
All I want is her to be drawn by Shimada.

>>13345686
Without CVs you will probably get fucked by combined fleet maps. But now is not a good time to level them, unless you want to passive level those girls through 3-2 A.

>>13345698
Welcome to the endgame.

>>13345698
Did you 10-star all your equipment already?

>>13345704
I tried putting them all in the same fleet and doing 3-2 A, which went pretty fast since I don't have to worry about fatigue, but it drained my resources too much. I'll probably leave them as is for now then.

>>13345698

Marry all your ships to save them from ending up in Fatalpulse's harem

>>13345698
>i don't want to do anything
>there isn't much to do

>>13345704

Where else do you level CVs? Carriers in PVP hemorrhage bauxite, it's bullshit they really need to fix. We're all using practice rounds here, no one is actually losing any planes.

>>13345712
I've been at this point, except devmats, for 8 months or so.

>>13345728
Maybe when that actually becomes more useful than it is now. And by that I mean about 5 times more useful than it is now.

>>13345733
Real life poverty is hard. And no, it's not skipping one meal. It's skipping five meals.

>>13345736
Illiterate twat

>>13345698
Farm KitaOoi for quint torps, farm Mikuma guns.

>>13345746
Do you live in Indonesia or something?

>>13345746
>look at me I have 300k resources and 3k buckets I have to respond to everyone responding to me because I love attention
Post rank or shut the fuck you disgusting waste of resources.

>>13345746
>+3/4 firepower and +3 accuracy
>not useful

>>13345753
I have more 3bear guns that I can fit on an entire fleet of CAs
I don't see the point of farming quint torps

>>13345756
Poor people obviously only exist in indonesia

>>13345758
Why would I post rank? I'm just sitting on regular admiral rank because I can't be arsed to fuck around with 5-4 all day.

>>13345760
Not useful enough. The emphasis is on /enough/.

>>13345769
I guess you use 15.5cm on your CAs then?

>>13345746
>Real life poverty is hard
Go find some jobs then.
Problem solved

>>13345758
>precisely zero shits to give about ranking
>Post rank

>>13345698
It's not that isn't much to do, it's just that you don't want to do anything.

>>13345007
Those are some cute eyes

>>13345798
Exactly why he shouldn't be attentionwhoring
If he's going to beg for attention, he better do it properly at the very least

>>13345756
>>13345746
He used the word twat which is mainly used in British English and isn't really that common of a word outside of England and Australia and most certainly wouldn't be the first choice of insult to someone not from these countries.

So yeah he's probably just poor because he's NEET rather than being from a poor country.

>>13345784
I have exactly the job I always wanted and the only way I'd ever get another one is if I was literally being paid for doing nothing.

>>13345799
"anything"
I am not going to do anything excruciatingly tedious like Kai2 CLTs or ranking.
But yeah, clearly that equates to "anything"
Twat.

>>13345872
That's a great story, faggot.

You should write a book about all the things that you don't want to do in the game.

>>13345879
Contain your jealousy of all the things I have in a browsergame.
It's unsightly and repulsing.

>>13345872
How does someones dream job even end up with them having to skip 5 meals
>I was literally being paid for doing nothing.
You might as well be

>>13345872
Yes, anything. By not doing the things you could be doing simply because you don't want do to them (because they are "excruciatingly tedious") means precisely that there are indeed things to do, and that you just don't want to do them.

>>13345892
I write for a living and I love writing, so getting by at all is enough for me. 7 bucks translates to enough ingredients for 5 meals. I'm not a picky eater and I like rice, beans and onions.

>>13345912
Saying anything here in context insinuates from your side that I want to do nothing whatsoever, which isn't true.
I do my dailies and some other stuff, just nothing of the really time intensive nonsense.
I dealt with time intensive bollocks for the first 6 months I played, I am definitely done with that.

Get a room.

>>13345703
>Shibafu draws the Spaghetti BB

Please kill me

Post cuties that will never get kai 2.

Complaining on /jp/ to get Shokaku.

I vaguely remember that 'All resources maxed' fag came by before and the conversation went exactly the same.

>>13345962
I tried to craft her again just now and got yet another Jun'you.

>>13345958
Can't handle the potato?

>>13345916
Writing is generally like being a musician, painter or any other career path involving the arts. You normally work another job alongside it until you make it big.

I mean you don't have to work multiple jobs but don't complain about poverty when you're there by choice.

>>13345989
Such cute smiling girls, desecrated and ruined.

>>13345985
Triple Houshou.
If anything I'm impressed.

>>13345997
I would just fucking kill myself if that happened to me.

>>13345048
I don't plan to do everything on Hard this time around so I should be good.

>>13345997
Houshou and Atago here

>>13346008
Pussy.

I'm glad I'll never be able to max my resources, suffering is way better than boredom.

>>13346049
What's the story behind this hibiki meme?

>>13346049
animu which I didn't watch.

>>13345997
I fail to see a problem with this.

>>13346049
>suffering
I find that when my resources are perpetually low I can focus more on min-maxing and micromanage my resources more easily. With a lot of resources I become more complacent and it's hard to change that even when resources become low.

>>13345960
I really like shiranui. She reminds me of crab from monogatari series.

>>13346053
In the curry episode of the anime, Yuubari makes 6 des div a pot out of bauxite, and Hibiki wears it on her head for a few scenes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6RAfIwsnR8

>>13346078
It's four now. I'm stopping before this turns out like my Taihou attempts.
IShe's so cute, Kai ni when?

>>13346101
That is not daijobu

>>13346101
>battlecruiser

>>13346112
It's what the slut deserves

>>13345960
She's the best starter too, what a shame.

>>13346046
Damn right I am.

>>13346124
Murakumo deserves better than the way you're treating her, even if her Kai Ni was disappointing.

>>13346123
Haruna is a nice girl.
Don't project your own filth onto her cuteness and purity.

>>13346133
Well, at least she hasn't got the same fucked up voice as Fubuki. That would totally ruin her.

>tfw finally listened to Yuugumo's voice
Jesuschrist that body-voice mismatch. Still pretty cute.

>>13346139
Haruna killed many sailors and soldiers, she's not pure.

post your rank points right now scrublords
i'll start: 2287

>>13346142
>Jesuschrist that body-voice mismatch
That's what I thought when I heard Tokitsukaze's voice for the first time. I don't know about anyone else, but to me the voice doesn't even begin to match the body.

>>13346155

Am I good yet?

>>13346155

Please ffs, let me in 150 for once

>>13346200
nvm

>>13346155
375. I've never had enough time or resources to do ranking. Also, ranking in Kanoya seems to be quite some work. Every month the top ranker has around 3000 more points than second place and you need at least 1000+ to even be in the top 500 at the end of the month.

>>13346208
nope, not even top 5
total shit

>>13346215
>Every month the top ranker has around 3000 more points than second place
That's normal.

>>13346215
And? #500 on Sukumo has 885 points right now.

>>13346155
Can't you wait until the rankings update? It's in less than an hour.

>>13346225
20 minutes.

>>13346215
>you need at least 1000+ to even be in the top 500
If the grass looks greener on the other side, it was fertilized with bullshit.

>>13346239
I said at the end of the month.

>>13346239
It's not like 1000 points require any effort.

>>13346242
This rebukes nothing. With 10 days left in the month, the numbers will only go up.

>>13346239
wow top 500 now is just "oh i cleared EOs"

>>13346242
Do you really think people won't get 100 points in remaining 11 days?

>>13346239
Hello fellow Brunei TTK.

>>13346255
The nigga didn't even notice?

>>13346256
i get that in a day

destroyers are the best

>>13346314
Only good destroyer is Akiduki.

>>13346314
can smashers equip reppü? no? then they aren't the best.

>>13346321
Reppuu is overrated.

>>13346321
they can equip cuteness and torpedoes

Haruna I'm trying my best here to train you, but if I'm gonna scratch your back you gotta scratch mine. That means critting for more than 40 on their Destroyer Ro class. Please! And maybe even getting a double attack every once in a while.

You'll never get MVP at this rate.

>>13346347
>not using 0 morale method

>>13346347
what's your equipment setup?
you gotta modernize and love her too.

>>13346374
What's going on here

>>13346347
How can you not get MVP with a Battleship?

Even my BBV steals MVP from my CAs every now and they when I exhaustion grind, and it has a goddamn 14 cm + 15.2 cm CI setup.

>>13346385
Docking

>>13346395
They don't look damaged.

where is the bast place to farm aircraft carrier kills?

>>13346413
2-1

>>13346374
I haven't modernized because I wanted to do it after she got 25. She has two 35.6 and a seaplane and Jun'You gets MVP every time.

I guess it isn't that bad since I'm trying to level up Jun'You too, but Haruna please hit higher than 40.

>>13346107
One can only pray.

>>13346413
Orel

>>13346425
Equip less bombers on Jun'you.

Recommended setup for CVL is one shitty blue or red plane in the smallest slot and filling the rest with RADARs and Saiun.
If she hits red morale you can maybe get away with adding another bomber.

Come the fuck on.

>>13346457
That's not two level 1 Hotels, a CV full of Reppǖ and 3 Subs

Oh boy, weeklies. I can't wait. I'm starving for some bauxite.

Any damaged art out there that makes you want to go full shounen protagonist and protect her smile?

Ooyodo in 1-6 is confirmed right?
I'm not hunting snipe, right?

>>13346489
You might as well wait for her to drop in the event, since the drop rate there seems to be abysmal, if she even drops at all. Also
>tfw I got my Ooyodo from the Summer 2014 event

>>13346486
Suzuya's Kai one
That fucking face

I always wonder if I should go for a CI setup on Haruna. All that luck feels wasted with DA.

>>13346374
What am I going to do with this boner now? The reset is coming up, no time to fap.

>>13346498
>tfw no one cares

>>13346502
You have 2 hands, my friend

>>13346498
Thanks man

>>13346511
Good shit man. Just hope you didn't burn up all your complaining tokens for the event.

>>13346511
Ooyodo's standard sprite is so bad holy fuck

>>13346511
Man, I should try it one of these days. Though I'm not sure what to ask for.

>>13346518
I'm saving mine for the event.

>>13346502
Why is she so cute?

>>13346546
Becasue she just is.

>>13346515
There was a reason they had to replace immediately right after the event was over.

It's now 4/20. You know what to do.

>>13346609
>Hiyou
Well shit

Was Kujo's drawing of Suzukaze and Samidare indicative of possible kai 2?

I'm leveling Samidare now solely because she's cute.

>>13346626
No.

>>13346626
I heard that it is an old drawing, but I had never seen it before. If they do change their art I won't really give a fuck.

>>13346626
He drew Bongous and Shimakaze as well so not really.

>>13346609
It's 4/19.

50 minutes left to finish my transport quest
Why must this happen every week

>>13346657
Not in nipland.

>>13346670
>waiting until the end of the week

You brought this upon yourself Teitoku

>>13346670
>Not doing it on Monday or Tuesday

>>13346634
>>12496269
It's from at least over half a year ago. I wouldn't read too much into it.

>>13346670
I decided to get my shit together and do some weeklies too. I needed 1 more screw to have another go at my Type 94 FD +9. Got through the aircraft carrier one and the sub one in about an hour.

>>13346609
>Hatsuyuki

Tricked.

>>13346609
blaze it

>>13346692
Zuihou??

>>13346695
>>>/wiki/
4:20 is kaga only

>>13346609
Nakachan smile

>>13346701
I derped and read it as 2:40.

Nope, you guys won't get me to waste resources just for the blaze effect

is iwagawa very competitive for ranking?

>>13346670
I finished all weeklies two hours ago.

So I decided to 420 blaze it and...

>>13346714
It depends on what rank you're looking at. For top 20 this month it looks like Palau is ahead of everyone. Kanoya for top 5.

>>13346717
Good job

>>13346717
Blaze it fag. It's gonna be turkey right?

>>13346734
Nothing wrong with a turkey.

>>13346734
My second turkey.

My first turkey was from 666/666/666/666

I'm using line ahead, but my torpedo hitrate is still kinda ass. Does that mean my carrier might be underleveled?

>>13346717
I am so jealous

>>13346486
Er... Yukikaze's and Chitose's make me want to rape them?

>>13346771
>Not Chiyoda

So, I'm at HQ lvl 72 and still no I-19, should I grind 1-5 for her? Is really that hard after 80?

>>13346766

I don't think formation affects accuracy in the Aerial phase, just the Torpedo and Shelling phases. Because...why would it? It doesn't say explicitly on the wiki, but I assume it's entirely based on carrier accuracy+whatever equipment you might have (recon planes in particular boost accuracy). So yeah, level your CVs.

>>13346800
I think it might actually be harder at this level (I'm 74) because she only drops at the boss node, and after 80 she drops at the third.

>>13346766
You mean with torpedo bombers?
Just get better planes.

>>13346609
Blazed and got Chiyoda. I'm gonna do another one tomorrow because even though it's 4/20 in nipland it isn't where I am yet.

Let's do our best this week as well!

It's go time nerds.

why is akizuki called ducky?

Yamato is waiting for you, all you have to do is reach out for her.

>>13346867
Some cancerous faggots like to call her Akiduki.

>>13346867
If Fubuki can be Bucky, then Akiduki can be Ducky.

>>13346867
fubuki = bucky (le epic anime subs)
akiduki = ducky (le epic memelords)

>>13346867
Akizuki
Akiducki
Akiducky

It's a meme that started with faggots being unable to spell her name right

>>13346867
Akizuki -> Akiduki
Fubuki -> Bucky
Akiduki -> Ducky

>>13346872
>>13346875
>>13346876
isn't it because akiduki is how you would input her name on most standard IMEs

>>13346876
>Akizuki

You got it wrong. It's because of Bucky.
>>13346883
Yes. Also blame nips.

>>13346884
I love that haughty old man tone she speaks with.

>>13346868
Sabrina, the Teenage Witch was literally the best piece of entertainment ever created in the past millennium.

>>13346884
I wasted 1k of bauxite, not even Nero can cheer me up

>>13346883
>>13346887

I don't get that at all. If her name had some kind of archaic kanji like other ships, yeah. But the second kanji in her name is just 'moon'. Also her name comes up just fine if I put akizuki into google translate.

>>13346717
I was inspired by you and decided to 420 blaze it myself at 4:20

IT'S NAKA

>>13346921
I didn't even attach the file.

>>13346921
I still need her.

>>13346927
Oh shit. OH SHIT. Finally after 3 months of grueling torture, all I needed was to complain on /jp/.

>>13346927
If it were possible, I'd give you mine. I really don't need 2-4-11 right now

>>13346932
Are you that Anon that couldn't get Naka no matter what

>>13346921
same. Shame that 2-4-11 doesn't come close to paying back the 420 blaze it I spent.

>>13346927
Congrats! I have no idea how you managed to go 3 months without getting Naka, but hey it's over now.

>>13346940
>>13346932
That sounds like the worst nightmare.

>>13346938
Yeah. Thank you woodoo gods of jp for getting me out of this never ending nightmare.

John Smith has been at exactly 3301 points since the 10th, banned or dead? He was always number one of Palau and now he's in second place.

Can you get Ooi from 30/30/30/30?

>>13346956
He's dead. He neeted into the afterlife because he forgot to eat while grinding all day.

Possibly same thing with the current top 1 guy in tawi tawi.

just a random question, does anybody have that picture of haruna overdosing while saying "haruna wa daijobu desu in the background like 3 times? i thought i'd be able to find it again but my google-fu isn't strong enough

>>13346964
I'm actually amazed at how many full days I've gone without eating just because I was grinding this game.

After taking a look at Tenryuu history she really is scary.

Japan has a distinction between ず [zu] and づ [dzu], though they quietly got rid of づ in most places. In compounds where つ [tsu] becomes voiced to づ it sticks around, like the つ in 月 [tsuki] when it forms some compounds.

http://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/1254/what-are-the-differences-between-じ-and-ぢ-and-ず-and-づ

Incidentally, all the -zuki Mutsukis (Fumizuki, Kikuzuki, Mikazuki, Mochizuki, Minazuki and Yuuzuki when they get there) also have this characteristic so in the end I guess it just comes down to one big meme.

>Try to get Chiyoda
>Get this instead

I'm not pissed today at least, but for fucks sakes just plz drop already Chiyoda. In any case I can't wait to Kai2 and make her lose her smile for good.

Post your brand new Naka.

Wasn't Kongou built in like 1912?

>>13347015
thanks nerd

>>13347024

Her and her class want to be hardcore, but their dated construction won't let them.

This... perturbs them.

>>13347022

>>13346995
I'll get her someday! Or I'll just farm event maps.

>>13347039
>waiting

>>13347024
She and her sisters are literally the oldest ships in the game.
They were modernized in the 30s and became pretty badass though.

>>13347022

Naka is lovely.

>>13347026
i'm glad all my autism is finally paying off in internet recognition

today's validation achieved

>>13347047
Alright, but you owe me an instant build

>>13347052

They had their designation upgraded to "fast battleships" but their main armor belts were still pretty thin compared to a proper battleship.

On the other hand, they were truly fast ships, at 28 knots. Compare with USS Arizona's 21 knots. That's a lot more important than most people realize - it determines fuel consumption, fuel efficiency, operational range, etc.

>>13347063
She's great ain't she?

>>13347070
It feels like I've found an oasis in the middle of a desert.

>>13347063
Oh anon, I'm very proud of you.

>>13347063
Keep her for a useful Kai Ni at an incredibly low level.

>>13347089
It's not even inaccurate to say that all the ships of the IJN that were lost were due to one very large piece of backblow from Pearl Harbor (a process more commonly known as the Pacific War.)

You might be looking for /a/.

>>13347070

Yes, yes she is.

>>13347063
Let me know how long it takes you to get a second one.

>>13347089
>He insulted my waifu.

Oh dear. Please accept my apologies; I didn't mean anything bad by it. I actually like Haruna quite a bit. There's something really appealing about her character design combined with her personality.

>>13347100
That's about right. /a/'s Kancolle threads could be hilarious at times, but dear christ almighty the shitposting. Unironically bad shitposting, too. It's such a relief to come back to /jp/ and find a cozy, comfy Kancolle thread.

>>13346982

I love her best when she's leading destroyer flotillas. I wish the game would give some kind of synergy bonus for making semi-historical fleet comps.

>>13347064

Kongou could go 31-ish knots max after the modernization.

>>13347155
That would be cool.
Composition and even sortie quests are just boring.

>>13347155
>Prinz Eugen and Bismarck
>Bonus when fighting Battleships

>>13346911

Idiot.

>>13347155
That would be cool.

Same with something like Taigei + subs. It would be fun is she gave them some bonuses or something.

>>13347181

Luck penalty! Though their historical AA throw-weight was piss-poor, too!

>>13347181

>Penalty against aircraft

Almost the entire IJN could qualify for that. Their AA was dogshit for most of the war.

>>13347233
>Their AA was dogshit for most of the war.

Yeah. At Midway they dispersed their ships in a wide diamond pattern to serve as a simple "early warning" system for the CAP; for AA defense the carriers were entirely on their own - and early-war AA throw-weight for those carriers was woefully terrible, compared to the US CVs.

>>13347226
Wasn't Kongou sank by a sub?

>>13347226
Yeah, I was so disappointed to find out that being a submarine tender didn't actually mean anything.
Giving her the ability to repair damaged subs in a sortie would be awesome.

>>13347253
What happened later on, didn't they start using ships as dedicated AA installments ?

>>13347255

Yep. USS Sealion launched a brilliant attack; emptied all six tubes. Two hits on Kongou, and a third just missed her and hit the Urakaze (destroyer) on her far side; it nailed a magazine and the ship was blown asunder, went down with all hands. Kongou limped along for a while but the flooding finally claimed her.

Incidentally, it's one of the only WWII torpedo attacks to have been recorded on audiotape. The (very poor quality) audio recording is still on the web, somewhere.

>>13347233
What are you talking about? The 25mm guns were folded over a thousand times and they shot bullets filled with nippondamashi. They were way stronger than the howaito piggu bofors.

>>13347255
Yes, the only BB sunk by a sub in history IIRC.

>>13347259
Or maybe reducing their ammo and fuel consumption/penalties.

>>13347285
>What happened later on, didn't they start using ships as dedicated AA installments ?

Both sides started piling as much AA onto their ships as possible once the power of aircraft was fully realized. The Japanese belatedly got into the radar game, and once they had air-search radar they were able to keep the ships close to the carriers and provide proper AA coverage.

>>13347296

Speaking of possible synergy bonuses, I forget if mini-subs are in the game. I've only just started playing myself.

>>13347305
They are equipment.

Why aren't we sending these ideas to Tanaka?

>>13347352
>>13347361
Surely we have people here living in Japan and spending jewgolds on the game.

>>13347336
Because they dont want to improve the game. Porting it to a dead platafrom doesnt help. Im starting to wonder if the second phase of the game was all bullshit.

>>13347373

True, but >>13347379 makes a good point. I wonder what incentive they actually have to improve the game.

>>13347379
This is true. The most important thing for them is to milk as much money out of it as possible for as long as possible, hence why we get a new map every half year or so and very tiny updates to keep the interest going. The vita game being "delayed" for so fucking long is no surprise because the anime got them more immediate players so it wouldn't be wise from a financial standpoint to release the vita game now, and in the end it's just going to be the same shit, rather than something new (that would require too much effort).

when is the event

>>13347480
Sometime in the future.

Fuck the monkey.

>>13347388
>>13347451
The thing is, even if you think that I make a good point, that wasnt the main idea behind me. I feel like they are not trying hard enough, Its like they dont want more money.
First, why vita? I know kadowaka lieks to suck pony's dick, but they should be smart too. Literally every relevant franchise known to earth is on phones right now, they are really missing a big market there.
2nd, why arent dlc costumes a thing? I want to see my wife in a official race queen costume or something like that.
Dont forget that ,after all this a flash based "game", things like common game standards shouldnt apply here.

>>13347524
It doesn't look like cancer incarnated, I'll give you that, but it's still far too early.

>>13346867

Not really. This thread will fall off in no time.

>>13347538
>phones

... that's a really good fucking point. A dedicated app to allow on-the-go management of your ships seems like a goddamn no-brainer, doesn't it? Cheap and easy to implement, and perfect for this kind of game.

>>13347538
I can see what you mean, but in general I think they want money, but with minimal effort.

>>13347555

duckyolev

Fucking hell, Taihou is my shipfu and I want to max her luck but spending all that Maruyu before maxing ships where it actually helps feels so fweird.

Thread is positioned 19/149. Are you willing to create 130 threads to make that true? Because at the board's pace it won't happen for a few days.

I thought they prided themselves in not jewing you, unless they made them available at a certain level or completing a specific quest and not sell it.

>>13347598
Why are you responding to /kcg/fag?

>>13347598
/jp/ is one of the biggest boards.
Not that it matters, since fresh threads are a normal thing regardless of board speed.

>>13347538

You don't have to look any farther than incompetence. Just look at the pricing model for the in-game store, it's ludicrous even by crazy Japanese standards.

The fact that a game this popular can barely pay for itself proves just how dumb management can be.

>>13347631
Are there figures for this game's popularity/profits?

>>13347573
>>13347610
Screws happened. Money doesnt grow on ships, so they should do at least something.
Im not asking them to partner with Sega and make Virtual On with kanmusus, I just want the game to improve a little and them be a little happier too.

>>13347631
Or they just don't want to make this thing pay 2 win.

>>13347616
The weeklies just rolled over, so I'm trying to finish the shitposting quest ASAP.

Anyone else struggle with killing high level orel fleets in pvp or am I just kuso?

>>13347665
You're just kuso.

>>13347631
Yeah probaly this. I used to believe that the Japan's "bubble" was exaggerating it, but I guess its really true in the end.
I wouldnt mine paying 15/20 usd for 20k of everything and 200 buckets or so. They really need to rethink some things.

>>13347665
lolwut, you're talking about a fleet of 2-3 subs? do you have ASW gear? usually i don't even need to equip ASW gear and i just use 6 DD

>>13347675
No they don't, things are fine as they are.

>>13347665
Use sonar+deep charges DDs. Literally FREE experience.

>>13347665
They're the easiest pvp fleets to deal with even without ASW gear.

>>13347638
If anything, they should be either event rewards or regular map rare drops, but it seems unfair to have them item shop only for those who are adamant in not spending a single dollar.

>>13347665
As long as you send BBV + 5xDD/CL at them, literally the only thing you could possibly be doing wrong is using the wrong formation.

>>13347639

Counterpoint: if everyone playing right now paid a dollar, every ship would have a kai ni by the end of the year.

>>13347730
Screw that.

cute

>>13347730
You're retarded if you actually think it'd be that easy. Artists aren't slaves.

>>13347743
3 million dollars could pay for plenty of overtime.

>>13347736

literally who

>>13347748
That would only be true if they didn't have other jobs and obligations as well.

>>13347730
I thought kai 2s were slow to extend the game life span. Anticipation and hope keeps people playing and I think artists do whatever they want.

>>13347763

>implying there won't be Kai 3s in the future

>>13347770
>future

>>13347770
Bisko Drei is only the beginning.

How many Reppuu (601 and kai included) do you have? How many do you actually think you will have to equip simultaneously in one of the FP-heavy event sortie? And how many for a combined fleet one?

I say 17/6/12.

>>13347717
Well that could work too.(I was goint to post a wall of text but I forgot what was my point, so have a cute whale).
>>13347732
You need to pay for the screws too.

>>13347793
idk about the numbers you need for fleets but I have 6 regular reppuu and 1 601.

>>13347793
Even if we could even use 6 kagas on our side, we will never achieve something with the enemy planes and their capacity.

>>13347793
7 Reppuu, a pair of 601s and a mountain of shiden kai 2s. I think I'm just about safe for hard mode unless they pull some serious bullshit.

>>13347793

>mfw only two reppuus

>>13347793
3 Reppuu and NOTHING else here, going for easy

>>13347793
1 reppuu, 1 shiden kai ni

put em on kaga

>>13347754

You seriously think that if Kancolle was making as much money as it could be, that there wouldn't be full-time artists?

>>13346826
Goddamn it. I am 66 and have been grinding for a week for her. What about I-8, should I farm her or try to build her?

>>13347793
5 rep, 1 601, 2 shiden

That with a shitton of AACI, I think I can make it.

>>13347599
It's not that easy, even if I spam min LSC. Not to mention it's hard to keep up with the baux consumption that way. And my baux/rest ratio is fucked up to begin with

>>13347844
Yes

>>13347844

You can't build I-19. Ludicrous, I know.

>>13347588

why would you max luck on a carrier?

>>13347863

love you waifu, whatever, but if you have 16 maruyus to spare on a stat that literally does nothing for her, that's some serious autism

With the advent of 1-6, It kind of feels like the As are marginally useful enough now as well.

>>13347909

Spam the 250/30/200/30 recipe. It'll give you rare destroyers and submarines, and you need most of the cruisers for quests anyway.

They just should add costumes outfits for ships and bum, easy cash

>>13347933
Holy shit, you can have them together?

Is there any fanart of Taihou suffering from "gas buildup" similar to what sank her?

>>13347903
It really fucking should, though. Luck being based on wartime survivability playing a role in damage but no role in evasion is stupid as fuck. It's not like Yukikaze accomplished much apart from not dying.

>>13347946
I've seen her fart several times

>>13347946
There's also a fart doujin where she gets the gas fucked out

>>13347950
No, it shouldn't. Fortunately, the retarded devs aren't that retarded.

>>13347950
I wish luck would magnify your existing stats by whatever percentage since it is by far the hardest stat to modernize.

>>13347946
More than enough

>>13347844
>What about I-8, should I farm her
Go ahead, she starts dropping HQ80+

>>13348002

I even bucket subs if I'm feeling impatient.
I'm trying to get better about it, just cleared 3-5 without using any this morning.

This will be my first event. Can I only expect to finish it in easy if I only have this amount of resources and only 2 CV and CVL in lvl 30 or so?

>>13348101

Midway was one of the most pivotal events in American history. I think you're fine.

If you've memorized the order of battle for the Battle of Truk, we've a problem

all hard cleared last event with about the same amount
events are easy, literally who cares

>>13348155
I'm curious too, since I'm in the same boat as you.

>>13348155
I'm not sure if you can clear easy with those buckets.

>>13348166
Better work on your pathetic amount of buckets. 2/4/x all day every day for you until event starts.

>>13348155

Start hellgrinding your CVs, start building new ones.

>>13348166
I spent 10k baux on Midway. I doubt this even will cost more than that.

>>13348197
But my bauxite will go away if I start building new ones. And about what level would be okay? I have Kaga and Akagi in about lvl 40 and Junyou and Ryuujou in lvl 30.
