Talk:Spring 2015 Event/@comment-24777033-20150511172148/@comment-25335190-20150512041709

Personally I'm in favor of this event. As I can finally catch up with a lot of bragging ttk who do nothing but power levelling ship while I raised two Nagatsukis to level 75. But I can see clearly what and why many, many old players are complaing about this hyped event.

This is what I concluded from various sources including japanese bb and oversea communities.

Why spring event 2015 is so unmemorable.

2015 Spring event is easy. Easy map tends to be forgotten easily. Do you even remember how the appregio event map was? yet the nightmare from Iron bottom sound still haunting strong. This event will be forgotten in no time.

No, they are not talking about 3 months old ttk meaning of easy. From veteran stand point, an event is what seperate veteran ttks from each other. Very strict branching rules, heavy RNG reliant, and OP ship/equipment rewards. Only the most well-prepared ttks with a kiss of fortune goddess can hope to clear the EO maps.

This event has none of the mentioned element. It can be cleared in all-hard-mode by some random ttk with no married ship(s) who just started playing when the first episode of the anime came out. As a result ,an underwhelming,limited usage rewards were given out to everyone.

Dev try to make up with a LOT of trophy ships being droppable. You went through the E-6 MI? Cool. Here is an Isokaze dropping for your 2 months old ttks friend who just got a first kill on E-5 hard. Remeber the Battleship hime day battle wall for Sakawa and U-511? How about you and all of your friends getting a dozens more of them while farming Roma. Thing went worse with First class medal which used to be a bragging right, that even some of the top 500 couldn't aqquired it. Now almost available for everyone. You got the first class medal, Your friends got the first class medal, everyone got the first class medal. Did I mention some level 80 ttks just used his first class medal since "It give me 10000 fuels"? That's how much this medal worth now.

TL;DR: Noob friendly event with shitty new rewards but godly old reward droppable. Offer new/noob ttks an opportunity to catch up with those who are bragging, with mininal resource and sanity lose. Newer ttk like this event. Noob player (like me) love it. And those who are complaining can't believe the fact that their time/effort spent in the past event now means nothing.
