@DevSquad74:

Okay, looking at the site and the areas you pointed out, the benefits of upgrading certain pieces of equipment make quite a bit of sense and do provide tangible rewards. Now I don’t feel quite as much like ‘I am doing this thing because that is what everyone else is doing and what everyone says should be done’.

Thanks for helping me out with this.

@Artie1207:

I do have enthusiasm for this game because I enjoy it and even though I haven’t been playing for a full year yet (this will be my 3rd full event), I am interesting in seeing how things progress and unfold. I do see your point in that there is quite a bit of salt here, and in a way, it’s a little disheartening to hear some folks complain the way they do… fortunately, I don’t have to deal with that sort of attitude in-game! XD

On Ship-Locking

I hear you there, and I’m glad to know that I’m doing something right regarding fleet balance and such. I know the event is going to be large-scale, but at the same time, I don’t expect the locking aspect to be terrible because of all of the historical ships involved. I honestly think it’s going to look more like Fall more than Summer… but that’s just me spitballing.

Kongou Upgrades

Heh… funny you mention that. I was actually in the process of leveling up Hiei…and then Yamato and Musashi fell into my lap. After getting them to level70, I figured I should probably get Nagato to K2 (due to potential historical requirement) before moving back to working on Hiei.

That said, Quest A40 is available right now… I just need to finish getting all the Kongous to K2.

Blueprints

I wouldn’t say things have ‘gotten bad’ per se, it’s just that I am still new-ish to this game, and at times I am having a hard time deciding on who to give my blueprints to, and different aspects all come into play. I mean, I gave Kinu a blueprint before I was willing to give other ships one because I wanted the Daihatsu and her passive bonus as an Expedition ship.

41cm Guns

Yeah, I’m thinking the same thing as well. Given the way Fit-Gun Bonuses work, I really don’t see a reason to work towards having a stupid number of these. The 3 from the ship upgrades should be sufficient for the time being.

General Upgrades

Oh, I understood what you were talking about. I was just providing my train of thought on the matter. I do know I want to eventually go to Hard Mode on events, but I don’t see myself being one of those ‘Hard Mode Only’ players either. However, I do understand what you were getting at.
