All aboard the new thread
Wrong Mogador
I haven't played this since the week Operation Siren came out. Been considering getting back into it, I miss my shipfus and need something to grind.
>>1837526 (Me)Fucking hell it's ~22GB download now? Fuck my life...I'll still do it though. Forgot how badly I want to destroy my dick to these girls.

>>1837614>SKK manifest
No wonder Russian ships keep sinking, just look at the thickness of their hulls. It's a miracle they ever floated in the first place.
>>1837542Be advised that the game doesn't release lewd lolis anymore, and that there have been zero new game modes, or anything interesting gameplay wise, since operation siren.
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.
I want new skins for my "recent" favorite girls>Gorizia>Strasbourg>ZenkerParticularly Gorizia and Zenker because while I like the whole OL outfits, I want them to not be roleplaying something.
>>1838371Not him but i like le hardi fanart better when it emphasizes that she has small breasts and thicc thighs desu
Another amazing batch
I bought the skins of Morrison, Laffey, Warspite, and Gascogne because I wanted to reward Manjuu for them
I want to see the lines for Tallin's skin
MY wife Franklin
Phoenix
No hope for the wiki to come back eh?
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.
Nothing tops the DD designs like Allen M Sumner, or the shisantian DDs in my book. We need more botes of their size, l'audacieux and evertsen weren't enough.
>all women ningen as extras on 3d islandI get the point, but is Chinkland really that fucked?
>>1842198Sexy ningen though
>>1842198yes>>1842204such a foul thing should not be allowed in, especially when I have botes
>>1842237>yesIn hindsight I wonder if "deliberately interpreting platonic lines or visuals lewdly" that I remembered games like AL running on back in the day may have backfired a bit (when that logic is applied to the wrong things)
Damn this PMC from alpha timeline files sounds dope, they wont be relevant in the main story tho
What did akashi do
>>1847489she messed up Barts order
Remember when l2d skins were just within the limits of being safely posted on youtube?
My wife and my other wife
ComfyActual 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.
>>1850624>I don't know how they did it but pressing Shift allows you to sprint and Space allows you to jump through emulatorThe fuck kind of sorcery did they do to do that? sounds awesome though. Using MuMu right?
>>1850641Yes 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.
>>1850655Righteous. Can't wait.
it's still in maintenance?
>>1850727yeah
it’s over bros… the game is dead…
>Danmachi collabWonder if we'll get Freya
So what's the strongest sub fleet right now? Curious if there's a general consensus.
>>1852794I-404 pack if you're willing to build I-404. Otherwise fishpack is still the way to go.
>>1852899but who goes with i-404?
>>1853486Flasher and U-556 Meta
>>1851019Must suck to be the mc of danmachi
>>1853480>>1853485>>1853497Is this SKK costume only available through gems?
>>1854821thankfully its a milestone reward
>>1850444Happy launch day to my wife Dunkerque
I stopped playing like 2 years ago.Got all URs till then and finished PR5, any point coming back or has the game moved on?
>>1855066if you want coomer game, then it’s always a good time to come back.
>>1855066Very little has changed aside from good quality of life tweaks and extra modes which are nice but are near pointless to the main game
>>1854996cheers!
>>1854996thanks for reminding me, I hope dunk gets a retro in the future
>read the event>billion sakura characters>even tosa got a role>even kaga was talked about (shes alive now? when did that happen?)>absolutely no mention of amagi whatsoeversad... where is she
>>1855522>when did that happentechnically after Amagis event but practically during Amagis event
Is the new mode locked for newcuties?
>>1855676Need to be lvl50 I think
Happy launch day to Enty
>>1855923And Scharnhorst
Unicorn appreciation post. One of the strongest botes in the game, is also a free Elite you can find super easily.
Serious Azur Lane art is something I always appreciate
>>1856237So, a total whore
>>1856237I really like the nurse skin, it's very sexycute
>>1861108I want to honey the bunny
Wow, I'm surprised that this is a free collab, and that Ais of all people didn't get in. Also, they REALLY seem to be pushing that elf girl as of late...
>>1861343it's year of the lions, royal lion, dutch lion, elf lion. I wonder who's next.
alright you gooner retards, which boob size do you prefer?poll: https://strawpoll.com/e7ZJabNoYg3
>>1863369Whenever 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.
>>1865210But Laffey, that's a bottle of oxy-cola!
Every boat deserves someone who loves her
>>1866311Except Shropshire
It's been 8 fucking years and they still haven't released Iowa.Are they really going to save Iowa as an emergency plan in case the game's revenues fall off a cliff?
>>1866954There's no such thing as emergency plans, they just release shit when they feel like releasing shit
>>1866954If they could drag Yamato release for 10 years then you should expect Iowa to take that long, or even longer to get released.
How many botes have we gotten with short hair (bob cuts, wolf cuts, etc) this year?
I wonder how different AL would be if the design language was more "Arknights but sexualized" versus what it is now, even if it's still the same level of lewdness.
Chinese gachas in a nutshell>>1868554I feel like that would either be GFL but with thicker girls on average or just Echocalypse
Is this guy for real? https://twitter.com/muusan_Lv1/status/1980122418703446350I mean maybe if enough of them clump up together then he can get somewhere
>pregnancy art of your own boatfu designsBased or cringe?
>>1869264Eh not my thing, moving on
the morning after
Is tit size the only indicator of "lewdness"? I ask because I certainly think tit sizes should simmer for a bit in favor of lewd l2d animations and spicy lines
>The new skinsThese jews get craftier and craftier every event.
>>1870240not really since even a flattie like hipper can be giga lewd if she prances around with just pasties and is giving you a fuck me stare
>>1870755Exactlychinks and manjuu, take note
>>1853480what the fuck is this cursed disneyland shit?
>>1876799It's just a famous meme outfit for SKK. The first depiction of SKK. There's also the more traditional attire and even a casual look.>>1837738
>>1865665Fun fact: classical cola is slightly fermented and has a Safe and Effectiveâ„¢ amount of cocaine.
Reminder for USKKs and other practicing territories: Daylight savings time is over. Your daily resets an hour sooner going forward for the next 6 months. Just under 4 hours from now. Don't forget.
Wants to start AL, good looking girls, what can yo do with your units apart from the arcade gameplay? (it looks boring)
>>1878035there is some content for a few of the girls like 3D dorms and stories but beyond those not much
>Waiting for my Starbucks, guy behind me on his phone, not really paying attention to him>Suddenly hear "AZURU LANU" blast from his speakers as he frantically turns his volume downI almost said something, but the expression on his face told me he was on the edge of committing sudoku so I showed mercy.
>>1878429This is exactly what forms my apprehension about AL leaning into the 17+ rating this hard, since I played for a long time and it was already joked about even when the fanservice was more restrainedim imagining bible thumpers or other puritans threatening someone for playing AL because it's "totally a porn game"
You seem like an insecure nervous little man. I don't know anyone that just shares that kind of nothing shit unprompted except for forever online losers with sex identity issues that already have deep seeded issues and apprehensions already. Could be wrong of course. That's just the aura you give. Maybe you're actually an ubermensh Chad gracing us with your day to day life. Either way, no one cares brother. Botes.
Got my amagi chan,.what are the rates for the island gacha?
>>1878618It's still T-rated on Google Play for some reason.
>>1878689No idea but there's a limit to each item in there. You're basically guaranteed to receive everything available provided you roll for them. This is what it looks like after I've rolled everything.
>>1879490provided you roll a damn fucking lot
>>1879090Based and redpilled
>>1879761Up to 4k gems, in as little as 900. Do you feel lucky? What sets your soul on fire?
>>1878636You mean trannies who think that anyone who doesn't agree with everything they believe in and kiss their feet are out to kill them?
>Essex went from racer to race queenI liked the biker suit but I'll take the RQ.
>>1881401I would like to see more of that, along with the opposite where the race queens become the racers (granted NJs RQ skins also has her driving)
I think Nakhimov cements my long hair preferences over short hair because none of her skins have interested me.
Did they add a "call in sub fleet during boss fights" to auto yet
>>1882283no
>>1838994My wife Aegir. I wish they'd make more skins of her. I need more giant German dragon tits in my life
>>1837287Any siren love here?
>>1883827Aside from the feet emphasis, I don't like too many her skins over her regular outfit.
>>1883828Waiting for more additions to the raising sim.

Do you guys have a list for these L2Ds with extra interactables and alt poses?I'm aware of>rq new jersey>swimsuit shimanto>demon devonshire>chien wu>ninja Soyuz>swimsuit St. Louis
>>1883828They really fucked up not making them playable. Then again, China's "villain law," soooo...Abyssals are better
>>1884200absolutely missed opportunity on their part. Good thing I can fuck my beloved Observer because of the sheer quality of porn they make of her though. Just wish she was playable too.
>>1884196Where the FUCK are the lolis
>>1884231I can ask the same about petite girls in generalSuzutsuki is the best and the chink fanbase needs to demand more for her size
Edit stolen from /alg/
I'm not really interested in the Date A Live collab. What event do we have after that?
Where's map piece #4?I've looked everywhere
>>1886051I believe it should either be some sort of other rerun or just a few dead weeks then Christmas UR
>>1886125Do we know what the Christmas UR will be?
>>1886148we won't know for sure until they give some sort of announcment, people speculate it might be Lex tsu but again we won't know for sure until they say so
>>1886148I think there will be two URs again
>>1886632I hope they're big tiddie botes. Those are my favorite.
>>1886678I personally think they should split the differenceOne petite bote with smaller boobs or mediumThe other being the usual big tiddiesplease get bonniesex out of npc hell, it's been three years, THREE YEARS
Look at this cooper
>>1886111I got it from the rolled carrot omelet quest in commercial.
>>1885940Does Royal Navy have the biggest and best tits overall?
I got New Orleans in 122 runsHouston 2 runs have reached 106, wonder if it will happen any time soon.
>>1887262No but a skirt balances Lion's design better
>>1888621Then which faction has the biggest and best tiddes?
>>1888742I LOVE Pastatiddies
Elfwife complete.
>>1891857Congrats
>>1890047>Pastatiddies>not Pastiddies
>>1891857Peak female performance right there
I know all botes are good botes. . . but is there a point to the META botes? They don't seem like they have much in the way of faction synergy and I haven't found something they're particularly good at.
>>1896897not really, honestly the only reason I still think they are there is some higher up is obsessed with "dark" alt characters and refuses to let the concept die
>>1896898Blame Kancolle and especially Fate franchise for those "dark and edgy version of your regular characters" shit. And somehow the chinks really love that concept.
>>1896898>>1896899I'm fine with the designs and the idea, it'd just be nice if they did something with them.
Eskimo is precious
>>1896897I don't know, but I do know that I've got like ten of them sitting at level 1 in my dock. I don't think I've ever used a single META bote in battle.
>>1896897some of them are quite strong, some might be ok for a newer player.
Maintenance in about an hour and a half USKKs. Make sure you feed your botes.
>>1887262The elves have beaten them
The cows are coming home
>>1905699awooga
>>1879490>>1878689quick rundown on what this is ? is it like that sirius/taihou 3d stuff but chibis?
>>1906077its from the 3D island farm sim thing they made
>>1905446Ironically, the DD lowers their average significantly. She still a qt tho.
>>1907006Evertsen is good and more DDs should follow the medium template. Maybe it should be non negotiable
>>1907018I just love me some big ass tiddies, man. Also, I hate the new captcha so fucking much.
How many lolicons bother with AL? Was thinking because all the l2d goes to the cowtits but the smaller botes get static or dynamic
>>1907368all the pedos go to pedo archive
>>1907368You are not being subtle
>>1891857>>1891857>not 3m exp>no +13 main/AA gun but somehow +13 kitakaze guncasual
>>1907581That said I want more Nimi tier botes
Why would someone vote for oumi when she's just a dumb temu atago slop knockoff?
>>1909732I'm a massive Owari simp and am biased towards Kii friends.
Imagine
>gosh
>>1910753so this is the official canon wife now?
Survey time, I have a goal
Which bote has the best feet?
>Admiralty Fire Control Table just unceremoniously shows up in shopWell that was a pleasant jumpscare.
>>1913147 (me)Gib more retrofits
>>1913550I was wondering why it's not showing up for me. Turns out it's still limited to 2 so since I already got them from the event and rerun, it's blurred out. I'm more excited I get to craft 12 Plymouth guns and 6 new rainbow G7E for my subs.
>>1913147>modest figures Kill yourself.
>>1913652You WILL have 1 per quarter and you will like it
>>1914557I know that there still needs to be room for big titties so i think it should be a more even distribution of big and modest, I can do with losing lolis to make room for the former two
>>1914931>losing lolisPlease, be quiet.
>>1884200>China's "villain law,"GFL has playable enemies, the SF girls are basically their version of sirens too
>>1916445IIRC the law allegedly was against morally ambiguous players in Chinese storytelling, but this was also back in 2021 so idk how things may have changed
>>1918275U love my wife and her sister (also my wife)
>>1910757she soft vores you in the not-canon ending so yeah basically
>>1920519womb crawling is canon
>>1918275>>1918420>>1918421>>1920201Made for shotas
Low cost 16-4. Even if you can't do it with 1 vanguard, it's still helpful to be able to do 4 mobs and 1 boss with a single fleet as everyone stays in the 2nd floor dorm and won't have low morale.
>Can't use this name I'm sorry I thought this was Eagle Union.
In my medical opinion:Francesco Caracciolo has the worst default outfit of all the new pasta botes, her skin would unironically be better
>Alabama gets darker with each skin
>>1929688At leas this time it can be excused by the setting? Though I think the artist in charge forgot the memo that they're redskins not blacks
I wonder how they're gonna handle those free URs once their events inevitably get added to the archives. I missed out on Laffey 2 (was busy elsewhere and didn't think they'd run 2 UR events in such quick succession)
>>1933312Probably getting added to the UR Exchange anyway, if not the Specialized Core Shop?
>>1929688She only has 2 skins, so it doesn't come as shocking. Consistency has never been a strong point in Azur Lane, especially when shipgirls constantly change bust sizes with each new skin.
>>1933520Yeah Takao looks like she rivals Kashino in her newest skin.
>>1933850An edit actually alleviates it a bit hereIt mainly enlarged her head
This unironically
Downes love
>>1934036you should kill yourself at our earliest connivance
Would you?

>>1939924What? The poll?I sure hope you didn't really believe that.
>>1939924>Me still voting Gouden Leeuw:
Is Sakawa a who?
>>194381399% of botes in this day and age are, including her
>>1943815We need to change that fact by any means necessary

Thank you Jesus
>no more new valentines for older botes>cn not happyCan this drama get big enough to genuinely threaten manjuu's well being?
>>1952582They will forget about all of this after a few days.
>>1952582No, but they're probably thinking of doing something about it.
>>1952585These few days will be vital
>>1952582pretty funny knowing all those coomer skin money are going into a new unconnected game with male furries
>>1933312Really 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
>>1896897META 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.
>>1956055>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.
>slav eventI sleepMoskva should have been Project 82 instead, and Ognevoys being lolis is a disappointment, now with OzornoyAlso skins are eh, i dont care enough about chitose or chiyoda let alone hindy or implap
I stopped watching these streams over a year ago, there's genuinely nothing excited about them, we're on late stage cast bloat
Superior Kansas
>>1960047Soon, surely
>>1956055Liz META is better gameplay wise than regular Liz. That's not a high bar to clear, though.
>>1959684Lolis are always a disappointment.
>>1960989And she's not the only one. While the METAs aren't exactly meta, they still can be stronger than their regular form.
why is /alg/ so toxic as of lately
>>1961196Shitposters are whyNot even good shitposters
>>1961600Hebe is hebe, as long as she's not too small she's good
>>1961196>toxic
i hope promillia flops so they actually improve the game again
>>1961918Game 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.
>>1961918it won't flop
>breath of the wild clone #87564059482392865>also we removed the hero man aspect and you can be the girl boss peach of your furry haremits gonna flop super hardbut quit being a faggot (challenge: IMPOSSIBLE) and take it to your thread
>>1961918If promilia flops they will cut cost on this one, too.
>If this retarded thing I keep trying to do that everyone says isn't quite there and needs to be reconsidered by an overwhelming majority flops>I am going to kill my golden goose out of spiteIf they're retarded enough to do that they get what they deserve. Pretty sure that's just you though. Like the other guy said fuck off, you have your own thread.
Reminder that most of these qt 3.14 are already dead and sunk, some with quite tragic stories

Why would a 11k ton battlecruiser would need to produce nutritious milk?
>>1963427https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_cream_barge
>>1963448>USS Hydrogen, USS Calcium, and USS AntimonyAwesome ideas for new girls for a milker formation
>>1963427>11k35k actually. This fat cow was supposed to be the size of a Washington treaty battleship.
>>1963427>11k ton battlecruiser11k is between the line of light and heavy cruiser
>>1963427there is a high demand for milk and shipping milk to the port is expensive
>>1963588 light and heavy cruisers had nothing to do with the displacement. It was merely a London treaty distinction between <156mm and 203mmHence 8k Exeter is a heavy while 10.5 Buyfast is a light
>>1963427I asked her
>>1963685More like Belfat then
>>1963078Not him but I swear I've seen this shit elsewhere
>>1963685while 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.
Every survey i tell them to give more content to who botes who havent got anything recently and add more medium tits
Why do we still play this game?Also, PC client when?
>>1964380There is two options>leavecowards way out>staymanjuu may not listen to you directly, but you can try and persuade everyone to want more of what it is you want, especially chinks whose demands manjuu are likelier to answer

>>1964380I play for waifu. simple as
>>1964380I like my wives and while I don't like the direction they took I still like the overall shipgirl idea, granted I will admit a good portion of why I stay is sunk cost
>>1964380I play it because the dailies are quick and because I get to collect and marry beautiful shipgirls>>1964584I heard they're bringing that collab back, I wonder who they will add this time around
>>1964910>I heard they're bringing that collab back, I wonder who they will add this time aroundI suspect that'll be one of the current most favourite girls, Amy, Reika, Nanami, Elise or Yukino I love all of them tho
>>1964910>I play it because the dailies are quickthis is not true in 2026 AL, i play games with much quicker dailies
So, how do I get rid of this bitch from the main menu? I want to see my other girls instead, and this bitch here is there most of the time.I do hate her tho, I don't like her character archetype at all
>>1967326think you have to go to her sec tab and select something like don't show special

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.
