A Sakura Taisen spinoff mobage developed by delightworks and releasing in Japan on the 15th.Character designs are cute, 3d and sound design have a distinctly budget feel, but who knows.They did an original anime episode that's the game prologue and was quite good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poo9It1m7bAAre you waiting for it? Will you give it a try?
https://twitter.com/sakura_kakumei/status/1337926460280107009A lot of designs have that new gen pokemon feel
>>259067I'm gonna try it but at the same time, but Man it is W E I R D that they ditched the mechas for Infinity Stratos Exosuits
>>259084In practical terms, it kinda makes sense. You want to show off characters and doing pilot cut-ins every time they need to emote isn't great for a mobage.They've been showing special attacks on twitter and a lot of them look really pretty underwhelming in terms of production quality, which is a shame after frame-perfect ones we got in shin.
>>259088I get it because Kotobuki had the issue where only showing planes really destroyed the real issue why people wanted to play but goddamn does this still feel weird for a Sakura Wars gamealso yeah, the trailer looked like it had horrendous optimization. That might doom the game for me if it's a battery chugger even worse then Genshin
>>259067No fuck delightjews
SOON
>none of the iconic mecha design stylesfucking dumbasses.

Preload started, 100MB APK.Game launches at 15 JP time
Has the ONA been subbed in English? I've still only seen the Chinese sub laying around. I'd be happy to time it if someone posted a proper English script for it. I can cheat by using the Chinese hardsub to give me a reference to help drastically reduce the amount of time it takes me to line things up.
>>261151Don't think so, the game isn't getting much traction in the west pre-release.Also, android APK has no x86 libs, so RIP emulators I guess.
Holy shit so this is what that webm was from. Thank you.
>>261084I see it on QooApp. Thanks for the notice.
Livestream at 10 PM EST.
>>261188Forgot link because I'm a doofus.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbYSboSn6CA
>>261184QooApp's install doesn't work on my phone. Some of their installs don't work on some Xiaomi phones and mine happens to be one of them. Anyone got a .apk file?
>>261173LDPlayer has a 64 bit version
>>261194https://apkpure.com/%E3%82%B5%E3%82%AF%E3%83%A9%E9%9D%A9%E5%91%BD-%EF%BD%9E%E8%8F%AF%E5%92%B2%E3%81%8F%E4%B9%99%E5%A5%B3%E3%81%9F%E3%81%A1%EF%BD%9E/com.sega.SakuraKakumeiIt's a 104mb XAPK.
>>261260Never seen a split .apk before. I downloaded Split APK Installer (SAI) to install it and got an error which it claims is a MIUI thing and for people who don't know, MIUI is basically the Android build that Xiaomi phones use. Looks like I'll need to wait for TapTap to get it. Oh wait, their page links to the Google Play page which I can't download from. Game over?
>>261260>>261275Geez. Tried the APKPure app and it looks like I'll have to wait until Christmas to play this game because I know one of my wrapped presents is a new phone that just so happens to not be a Xiaomi phone.
From the idiot with the Xiaomi phone: I decided to actually do a search on how to activate dev mode in MIUI 11 instead of continue to assume it can't be done anymore and found that QooApp just hasn't been updating their guide and the people in comments weren't being helpful.Anyway, it's strange that the name for the game on Google Play is "project-810407284165" and not the name of the game.
Why the fuck is it in English?
The livestream is just showing the ONA. Looks like some people in chat are seeing it for the first time.
In case anyone's looking this has a proper .apk, not xapk tomfoolery.https://apkcombo.com/サクラ革命-~華咲く乙女たち~/com.sega.SakuraKakumei/download/apkThe game doesn't appear to come with obb so expect download on/shortly before launch.
is the server IP locked to Japan?
>>262090No idea, but I'm still getting the service temporarily unavailable message
>>262094Japanese people are already playing it so that's the only explanation I can think of
>>262095Welp. Between no emulator support and needing a VPN that's a no-go for me.
Yeah unfortunately you need a VPN to play, even after logging in.
>>262102Yep, that's a bye bye for me.RIP. wanted to try it.
Fuck sega for blocking it outside japan. Using a VPN but I shouldnt need one, its 2020. The fuck are they thinking? Unless they're planning to release it outside of Japan this is just fucked up.Also the rates are ass. Got so many dupes and so little characters out of my 4 10 pulls
>>262211Also why did they have to make one of the best characters a damn 3 star. Love this ara ara bitch.
Does it work on LDPlayer 64bit? I grabbed the apk off QooApp and it just crashes the game on opening it.
Needs a VPN. Stripped down the mechs. No emulator support. Jesus this game. Does it even run well or is it a lagfest
its delight jews what did you expect
>>262273It does work on emulator, some guy on a discord has been rerolling on bluestacks.
>>262261It's kinda sorta working on LDPlayer64 for me, but is super unstable.Trying out 64bit nougat on bluestacks now
Sasuga DW
>>262337UPDATE: Working fine on bluestacks so far. You need a nougat 64-bit instance, with arm64 ABI
>>262211I wonder why Sega is making this one needs VPN since all their other games which I played like Chain Chronicle and Puyo Quest don't need one.
>>262401english version soon anon!
>>262337>>262354Do you get the apk from Qooapp? I tried it with your advice but it's still crashing the app on launch.
>>262440I'm using the apk from here >>261881Are you latest bluestacks/64-bit instance?
Got my 2x 5*
The game is IP lock ?
>>262478You need a VPN, yes.
>>262466>tfw only got ONE 5 star and it was none of the cover ones, but some GAL looking girl
It might take hours for me to enter the game because MIUI has had borked wi-fi ever since a nasty update that is quite difficult to roll back and things are even slower when using a VPN. Not much better than dial-up.
>>262565I rerolled 4 times total. 5* char rate is 3% I think, so 2x 5* shouldn't be too out of ordinary on 40 starter rolls.Anyway I was wrong because that account actually got a third 5* along with Mei in the last pull.>>262573Ganbatte, anon. FWIW the game doesn't force you to do several hours of content at the start by autorefilling stamina or anything.
>IP blockDo they not want big chink money? They pay a whole fucking lot for their gacha games. Weird as fuck choice.
>>262584How do I go about saving an account if I wanna reroll? Like incase I just wanna go back to the one I liked most.Also I keep getting this when I try talking to the girls. What's up with it?
Does anyone have any idea at what time the server reset or am I too late to reroll?
>>262669there's a bind to google play and seem to be some sort of account transfer code system, but I didn't dig into it.
>>259067FGO but better.
>>26269600:01 Japan time.I know because I was 1 minute late to turn in my daily quest.fuck.
Which VPN are you guys using?
>>262884https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=vpn.japan works okay and doesn't limit traffic which is nice for initial setup.Later, probably tunnelbear of some other slighly less grimy option.
The APK linked in >>261881 is telling me it's not compatible with my device when I try to install it. Is there a region block on installation too? If so, how do I get around it?
Can't even play the game, nothing happens when I tap the node on the main quest.
>>263026Use a 64-bit emulator if you don't have a 64-bit device.
>>261151>>261173Okay, since it seems interest in subbing the ONA is rather lacking, I took the liberty of pre-timing the script in .srt format instead of waiting for someone to provide a translation. Maybe that will motivate someone. Here's the pastebin.https://pastebin.com/JVWUtUgF
>>262884ProtonVPN doesn't have a cap and the free version includes Japan
Regional IP lock seems to have been removed, at least through SEA.
>>263859Same for Europe.
>>263877Good news, then.Shouldn't have been there in the first place, but I'll gladly take this improvement.
>female protag commanderDead franchise
Tokai Teio!?
Can I roll for her yet or is she free? Mainly picked up the game for her.
Can confirm IP lock seems gone for USA too. However you need to change your phone's clock to jp time to access the correct daily quests.
>>263970idk if she's playable but I've been rerolling since yesterday and I haven't seen her. She's also the shopkeeper so probably not playable yet.Just hope that DW does it like Da Vinci in FGO and make her playable someday.
>>259103every japanese game runs like shit on android unless you buy an iphone
Leveling up unit becomes really slow after level 12 or so. EXP items give you nothing.Leveling up bond level to unlock unit skills also takes forever unless you can somehow replay boss fight over and over again for 100 bonds.The story enemies and bosses are catching up to my level and they basically 2-shot you.
reddit says the game no longer needs vpn
>>264214We said it first
Now that I think about it, it's possible they region locked it for server load since they probably knew others outside Japan would wanna play. Or it was an accident. Or enough people complained they realized they were being absolutely stupid.
>>264348>dead game>server overloadhaha
goddamn this fucking UI bro.. reminds me when i first installed FGO JP back in 2016
>>264409It's fine, most of series fans are pushing 40, too.
is there really no fanfare for this game's launch?that's sad, this game has potential
>>264013>runs like shit on android unless you buy an iphoneUhh...
>>264446The plot and characterization seems to be the main draw of the game so without English there isn't really a point in playing it.
>>264475how about in nipland?
>>264446I'll try it out if it comes out in the west. i really like the designs. not holding my breath however.
>>264476Oh, is it not getting any fanfare over there either? I have no answer to that. It got lots of preregistrations.
>>264525>It got lots of preregistrations.it will be fine then i guess, probably magireco tier
>>264446>delight jews >potential
KINO
The final boss of chapter 1 can attack 3 times / turn is fucking bullshit.You have to spam Invul/NP up and attack her with high level characters and leveling up is fucking pain in the ass in this fucking game.10 AP / free mission just to get small EXP items that don't mean shit is fucking bullshit.The fact that there are like 7 types of EXP items and you can only get them on a certain day is fucking bullshit.And even if you've managed to max your characters, farming mats for ascension is... Are those even farmable?How do you level up fast???
I won't gacha until I can roll for any BLACK member, especially her.
>>264622That's a logical plan and one I can agree with. More reason to wait for global though because you might be messing yourself up for something that never comes while we should know by the time global is released if ever.
>>264634>waiting for global version of a niche game>he doesn't know japanese in the year of 2021Embarrassing desu>something that never comesPrana might not be rollable at all if this game flops in Japan since she seems to be the end-game boss. Heck, we might not even be able to roll for Asebi for the same reason. I hope I could at least roll for Maju not too late into the game.Assuming this game has the same balance as FGO, we should be able to finish the main story with just 3 star units from Friend Gacha. That should be the case since one of my 3 star is far more useful than my 4 star who can only debuff herself. Also, the NPC supports are strong as hell. At least in Kyushu.
>>264620>How do you level up fast???You probably don't.
so how do i reset account here? i doubt clearing files is enough since it's connected to google play
>>265265go to android/data/com.sega/files and delete all authsave files
>>265276neat, thanks
>>264013Thats not true
>>265284>>264013only DW games because they're incompetent niggersboth FGO and this game are unoptimized as fuck
This game often crashes before battle.Good thing you can continue without losing AP.
>>264654I don't know moonspeak but I can flex when its voiced however if global take too much time I'll stick with jp. I hate being years behind.
>>265289Actually this.
>do 20AP EXP drop mission>my bitch went from level 22 to 23>only 1 level / 20AP at best>still need to grind money for leveling up costWhat the fuck. This shit is way worse than FGO. You can't even get EXP by doing battle.
>>265290You mass download the data in settings and the crashes stop I think.
>BUSTY BLONDE and ara ara right off the batch.2 campaign gacha can't coom soon enough.
>>265620
>>265696I love this slut
>>265696Is she Earth element?
>>265736Light
>>259067>10 ap material daily only drop this game equivalent of QP after 60 runyeah fuck you DW
>>265776They know they have no content planned so they want us to progress really slow with character upgrades
>really like the 4* green girl>but ssrletOdds keepEvens reroll
>>265928Hopefully green girl follows you to your next account
>>265928You really want at least 2-3 ssrs and the +1200 hp CE because it's really strong early on or something. I started without the CE because I rolled 6 ssr characters + 1 CE(ranged damage).
>>265939ngl just 1 ssr plus her is enough for me
>>265928I didn't even reroll.The girls are all plain anyway and this game isn't worth gameplayfagging. If I fail a stage I'll just pay with 10 quartz.
Pretentious ikemen died a virgin
5* from the tutorial roll is good enough of a start I guess.
Those loading screens of the girl who lost her leg in the hospital sure are depressing
Anyone else getting error code 23-003 when trying daily quests?
>>266566Change your timezone to Japan's.
>>266828the game needs more milkies
I like this bitch
Beautiful voice.
>>267146shit singing!
Gosh, why am I so lucky? F2PBTW. There is even a duplicate of Mei and Tsusuji.
>>267164nice
>>267164I just want BLACK girls
>>267197Get in line
how long does this free 900 sq last
Finally got a good reroll
>>267220It's running until January 11th, reroll away
>>267229Any unit with 2 range, but half damage for 1 range is complete garbage.
>>267261i dont really have a reason to take this game that seriously so idc
>>267271>Finally got a good reroll>idcmega cope
>>267276im just gunning for that cute 4* and the piano girl, i dont even know what their skills do
Is there a guide to naivgate the ui? It's not exactly confusing but I'd like to know what does what.
>>267308its fgo ui
How can you enjoy this game? Plastic hair is causing me to vomit
Is there an ios version?
>>267587If it's nip it probably has one. Nips fucking love apple
So the story mode has points where bad choices show you visions that lead you to Dead Ends. Cool.
>>267679Was kinda surprised at the choices after the chapter 1 bossfight that's for sure.
What the fuck were they thinking with the final boss of chapter 2?>attacks twice per turn>FOUR lines attack range, no one is safe>AoE sweep attack>global range NP>ATK & DEF buff & debuff>movement restriction debuff>Invincibility>270 fucking thousands HP>1500-2000 per attack, 1-2 shotting non-tank units>HE ISN'T EVEN THE FINAL BOSSEvery unit who isn't designed as a tank have peanut HP that will be gone in 1-2 hits and I believe there isn't DEF stats that I can increase by leveling up(?)You have to have like full line up nearing level 30 with huge HP boost 5* CEs to do beat this with 1 life.Well, I chose to pay 10 SQ instead since grinding level is impossible in this game anyway.
>>267926Meanwhile the actual final boss is piss easy.
>>267932
>>267926I can't imagine how much money this guy with a Lv50 SSR for loan has pumped into the game.
>>267941Chapter 2 girls looking pretty cute. Also seems like Kusuno is the key to beating hard content. Dumb team invincibility skill.
>>267944Even getting to level 35 (2nd ascension) feels impossible.20 AP EXP missions give you nothing.30 AP EXP missions give you large EXP chunk, but you need to be level 55 to even do that.And there's also Bond level. I just completed the 2nd chapter and everyone is still at Bond level 1 + 10%. What's the point in rolling for your waifu if you can't get to see their events? Grinding for Bond is impossible.Based on the Japanese map, this Prime Minister Kira arc should have 9 chapters before moving on to the other part of the world (assuming this game would still be alive). Assuming there would be a 10 level increase / chapter, you'll need to be at level 80-90 by the end of the arc. That's just pure hell.I still have 1500 gems and there's no new content. Maybe I'll just get all login bonuses, get everyone to level 25 and stop playing until there's a new content. Maybe after Lostbelt 6 (never).>>267962Which one is Kusuno?My favorite is the ara ara blue tanky one (Arino?) and the boyish looking blue strip hair. The rest either too squishy or have shit damage. The Miko is really powerful but we got her too late into the game and the only enemy that she can fight is... the overpowered semi-final boss and she dies in 2 hits.
If you don't have a dream, you can't have idealsIf you don't have ideals, you can't make a planIf you don't have a plan, you can't actIf you don't act, you can't succeedIf you don't have a dream, you can't succeedmuh 志He didn't act on his students, that's why he died a virgin.
>>267970Kusuno is the invisible witch girl who is rate up on the current banner. She packs lots of healing. Also here is the obligatory Japanese tier list of debatable quality.
>>267997Well, you have to have luck to get her from gacha to keep using her. I only did the first gacha without reroll, so I have to get by with the story NPCs.Speaking of healing, Arino's periodic passive heal is much better than 1-time big dick heal. I guess that's why she's SS-tier.And this B-tier unit has great synergy with Shino since she can remove Shino's skill's side-effect. She also has 2-Lines range and high damage.Too many 4* and 5* units in this game have "quirky" gameplay with inefficient skill effect and annoying 50%-100% damage system that simple 3* units are tend to be better.
There are a lot of active comments on twitter from the Japanese. This is some crazy lineup. How did he even grind this much?
Nice
If you want to reroll, make sure you get>Kusuno>All units +1200 HP CE>300 HP heal per turn CEThat's probably enough until this game closes down.
>>268638That's just depressing to hear for a game that's been out for a few days
What's the story about?
>grinding with 80 AP is only enough to get 1-2 levelsI hate this game
Probably best to just take it slow until an event happens, or DW listens to all the people complaining about how hard it to strengthen characters.
>>264446Knowing Delight you should be happy that the game launched without the servers melting down a dozen times.
>>268163Pay your way to victory. This isn't any different from FGO when it first started and you had to grind nonstop, except back then Delight fucked up so hard they gave you hundreds of stamina refills to do it with.
>>268820Usual Sakura Taisen story is about Male MC leading a squad of girls to fight Demonic forces. But I don't know if there's a male MC on this game.
Earth servants are so fucking useless
>>269649at least its good to know that there are whales out there to keep this game alive
>>269649>100 normal EXP items>from level 27 to 30How do you level up?
>>269717Prolly spammed more refills than the bread you've eaten this year.
>>269649Mother of God!
>>259067I played a few Sega mobages in the past and I want to know if this game is the same in terms of balance. Can some anon who's been playing answer these please?How big is the power difference between the highest rarity character and lower rarities?Do you absolutely need certain SSRs to farm events efficiently?Does the gacha have any guarantee/pity system?How much of the content is fully voiced?
>>269649Fucking space whale right there
>>269951It's just FGO with 3d models and a slightly better combat system
>>269951>How big is the power difference between the highest rarity character and lower rarities?It's as balanced as FGO.From my experience, the strongest units are 4*CE, especially HP boosts and heals are extremely powerful and much more important than units.>Do you absolutely need certain SSRs to farm events efficiently?You Absolutely Can Not Farm In This Game.Levels don't really mean much beside for increasing ATK power since your HP growth is really bad. A level 50 unit won't be able to stand 2 effective attacks from a level 20 enemies for example, if the level 50 unit is a type of unit with shit HP.Positioning, RPS system, heals, regeneration and invulnerability are the most important things in this game.>How much of the content is fully voiced?important, "cool" and "epic" lines are voiced. Villains of the chapter are almost always fully voiced. Enjoy that Lelouch voice.
I dislike this.Did we absolutely have to fight the old chonkbots?
>>270966At least there's a chance we'll get some one day, right?
>>259067Can anyone confirm if the game works on Nox or Bluestacks?
>>270982The game works on bluestacks, you need to create a 64-bit nougat instance. Other 64-bit emus might work, but I had pretty unstable experince with ldplayer.Those are my settings for bluestacks >>262354
>>270986A different anon here using Memu 64-bit without too many issues
>looked up the official TwitterKek they actually have more followers than e7 and dragaliaAnd goddamn the people are mad at DW for the drop rates
>>271008They got massive follower count early on overtaking main sakura taisen account. Probably thanks to vtuber promotion.
>>270986Thanks anon.
Free roll, go get 'em
>>271094It reverted back to Mamiya's banner when I tried to get the free roll and got an error.
>>271320Set your timezone to JST, otherwise you are going to have issues with timed content.
>>271399>tampering your phone timezone just to play this kusogenahnot worth the effort changing it every time.
>>271403Well, yeah, it's less of a deal if running on emulator.You are gonna have issues staring timed farm stages when the date already flipped in Japan but not in your region.
>Can't do the open mat farms because it gives an error>Can't use a key to unlock a different mat farm because that also gives an errorWhat the fuck do I do
>>271442>>271410>>271399come on now
why is not!da Vinci playable..
>material grind missions don't even give you materials unless you're lucky with the random drop What the hell is the point, then!?
>>271841welcome to FGO's dogshit mechanics
>>271845At least you can mindlessly grind in FGO without worrying about getting a game over from a grind mission.In this game, the enemies will one shot you regardless your level since your HP scales extremely bad unless you're a tank.
It's criminal that you can't hide the text bubble/box
How well is it doing in Japan? Shino is so cute bros
>>271931The Basketball American girls are so much better.
How do I turn off ougi animations?
Kraken-sama...
>there's a CE that gives you 15% NP when you kill an enemy>kills 3 enemies>it still gives you 15% NP instead of 45%Can't fucking loop in this broken ass game
>>271008The 4 and 5* character droprates are triple what FGO is. It's mostly that it's a split gacha where you still have an overall higher chance of getting a CE in every roll.
If you party up with someone level 50+ in a grind mission, the enemies at the final wave will become way tougher.
>>274390lmao what the fuckfucking DW niggers
>>274416I don't know if this is certain or not, but I tried doing the GP mission (20 AP one against level 24-25 enemies)With lv 35-50 supportFinal wave enemies = 16k, 16k and 65k hpWith lv 65-90 supportFinal wave enemies = 16k, 48k and 65k hp
>>274420wow, they really dont want you cheesing it with high level supports like in FGO
>>274433We're already unable to use player support in story missions. That's kind of understandable to provide challenge and story immersion, I guess, but there's no need to implement level scaling (soft or hard) in grind missions. That's just unnecessary scummy move.
>Day of the week Quest AP1 / 4 ・ We will carry out a double initial reward campaign.>・ The AP cost of the day of the week quest will be reduced to 1/4.>・ The first clear reward for the day of the week quest will be doubled.>(1) Implement the AP recovery system when the commander ranks up.>(2) AP recovery items (steam fuel (large)) will be available as they are.Discounted farm stages, energy recharge on levelup, and some friendpoint gain adjustments
>>274486This is great. Especially considering ascension material missions have dogshit drop rate.I don't get why the missions have drop rate at all.The material drops should be guaranteed.I hate it when I just get tiny amount of GP with no material drop at all.These are missions with the sole purpose of getting materials ffs.
The enemy crit rate is too damn high
>>2745074 crits out of 6 hits pfftWhat the hell.
>>274486>>274502>・ The AP cost of the day of the week quest will be reduced to 1/4.I think 1/4 cost is too extreme. Now I don't have time to spend all my AP. 1/2 cost should've been enough.
>>274521It'll probably get dialed back a touch, I agree that this is a bit too much repetition, especially if you have to manual stages.Also, new Angelica-centered story event along with a livestream on Monday (28th).
>>274502>do mission 10 times>only got material drop oncetruly kuso game
I didn't expect having too much AP would be such a pain in the ass.I have 134/70 AP and the mission is only 2 AP / mission and recharge time is 1 AP / 5 minutes.There's nothing else to spend this AP on.
>>274850farm the daily stages
>>274851Can they drop mats?Because even mats missions don't drop any mats at all.
>>274851>>274853Wait, which one are "daily stages"?
>>274855the ones where you can farm gp, exp and mats
>>274857...That's what I was talking about... the 2/5/7 AP mission. They don't drop mats at all.
>>274867im pretty sure one of them drops matsprobably has garbage drop rates like fgo
>>274870>im pretty sure one of them drops matsYes, but they still don't drop mats.I did 15 missions in a row and I only got bunch of 500 GP drops and 1 super common mats.It's impossible to ascension with this drop rate.
>>274872literally fgo>haha just wait for events to get matsi hate delightjews so much
>>274875Seriously? Is FGO drop rate also this bad?But then a lot of people already have full level 50+ lineup even before this 1/4 AP reduction for dailies. That seems impossible even with infinite AP and time. There must be some way to get consistently mats.
>>274872The rates are fine bruh :^)
>>274888After 100 AP I finally got the goddamn cable.Now I just need 2 more of this cables and 6 brown steel plates like in your pic.
>>274908Yeah the extra cherry on top is that not only is drops random and rates shit, I also need mats from two separate nodes to ascend. They should've bumped rates x4 istead, this is taking forever.
>>274420About this. This is false by the way.There are always 2 "strong" enemies in daily stages, but their placement is a little bit random.There's a chance that there'll be one in each 2nd and 3rd wave, and there's a chance they both will be in the 3rd wave.I don't know why they designed it like that.
Close to 200 AP and phone battery went from 100% to 50% with auto-mode and I only got 2 cables. I hate this drop rate shit so fucking much.
so..how bad of a grindfest this is? i dont have enough time for all the gacha games im dealing with now
>>275360No skip tickets. Autobattles are fine for the most part, but it takes a while restarting stages to dump stamina.
>>275360grinding level is extremely easy.grinding mats is extremely difficult, close to impossible.
around 250 AP later...
>>276289I don't see how they expected anyone to farm this stuff without afk macroing
>>276308It's still impossible even with automation because of the abysmally low drop rate.
>twitter announcement about 1/4 AP dailies until new year>literally every comment is bitching about material drop rate and amount
>>274878>That seems impossible even with infinite AP and time. There must be some way to get consistently mats.nah they're just megawhales
I spent a day and a half macroing and only had enough mats for first ascension on 2 characters.With the cost discount and levelup energy refill, you are now effectively only gated by real world time.
>>276695The cost discount is only temporary because a lot of players were having difficulty beating the 2nd chapter (Lelouch is way too strong).
You can beat the Level 55 dailies with no damage with little to no effort, as long as you can deal 30k damage / turn with 3 range units. Just use level 80-90 Kusuno support.
Wake up and play the copypasted FGO event
Angelica Turboweeb event trailerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNdrvg6SNUwStream had some Angelica concept art and extra discussion.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZuPrUy4C0gHaven't watched the whole thing, post if you find any droprate newsNext stream on the night of 31st, so weebs can feel less lonely as years change I guess.
>>278408I want to roll for Majew
>>271931its not looking good, if only sega have some brain after dreamcast giving the IP to DW is a huge mistake
>>278423oh...
>>278426get fucked delightjews
>>278423I want this game to be successful because I like Sakura Taisen but>DelightJewsreally Sega?
What's the point in doing the 30 AP when it has the same drop as the 20 AP one?
okay so i guess this won't get a global release now huh.
>>278587Likelihoods probably
>>278600It might not even last long in Japan.A lot of people are voicing complains, especially about the drop rate and AP cost.Most players have max AP of around 70 right now and the costs of event missions are up to 30. Some people already played the event mission 30 times and the event CE still hasn't dropped yet.Remember that 1/4 AP for dailies are only temporary, so it's going to be more hellish to get mats after new year. Not to mention it takes truck load of mats to ascension or level up your skill.DW just needs to fix these 2 issues and the game will be way more fun and relaxing, but I don't think they will.People are saying DW is incompetent and has learn absolutely nothing from 5 years of FGO. They just copy-pasted everything from FGO, including the bad and somehow made it even worse.It's such a shame since I really like Sakura Taisen franchise.I like the simple story and regional characters and the gameplay is pretty fun.I just hope this game lasts long enough to finish the main story.
>>278608They're going to self destruct :(They're really greedy with FGO. The IP got to their heads, and they think people like them too
>>278608the worst part is this is probably going to make sega give up on this series because of their incompetence, i was hoping if the gacha doing well its going to spawn more sakura stuff, but with a launch this mediocre without fate IP its pretty much fuckedthis is some generic businessmen move, they probably look at how successful FGO is and think the same thing will happen to them
I wonder how they even ended with that droprate situation. It's not like DW is breaking some new ground in terms of mechanics, you'd think anyone could tell it's not going to go down well with players. There are plenty of less aggravating ways to timegate progression without tying it to abysmal droprates.
>>278625>they probably look at how successful FGO is and think the same thing will happen to themthats the same thing that made Nintendo give up on gacha. they genuinely thought their games would give them FGO numbers of revenue. it seems like thats how a lot of suits think, if its not doing FGO numbers shut it down.
>>278625Didn't the PS4 game do pretty well in Japan? If anything, it might just scare them away from the mobile market.
so how bad was this and how does it compare to FGO year 1
>>278972It's very good except for the very bad stuff.
i hope they at least salvage this engine for FGO instead
So what's the story?
>>279113girls driving a truck fighting a government funded idol group
>the 5-star event CE doesn't give you drop bonusIs it like this too in FGO?
>>279316depends, but usually the one you need for shop currency are from gacha.shop CE usually for more damage (like current event) or drop other than shop currencies e.g points
>>278903It was decent but not great. I for one was of the ilk that wished it were an srpg
This gacha would've boomed If it was 2016-2017
I have two characters at 50 and one at 35.I have been macroing material stages literally every waking hour for days now.I still don't have mats to upgrade any of them further.What the actual hell is this? Are you only meant to have practical access to upgrades through events? There's nothing else to do/progress in the game.
>open app>spend 5 minutes spending AP on event>close appis this FGO?>>280333you can't
>>280463worse than FGO except better rates
Lotteries when
>>280467Well to be fair. FGO was shit until they got an actual game director. No sure if this game will live long enough to see that.
I did it bros!
>>281714Nice.
How the hell do you hide the dialog box / bubble? I want to take a text-less screenshot.
>>281867you can't
New banner, some farming stage mini-event thing, and other news.Story stages are now on 1/2 AP event.
Also, a 5* guaranteed limited banner
>>282097Why play story when there's an event?>>282099Only one roll, though.
>>282132>Why play story when there's an event?To gather up 300 jams for a roll, I suppose. Or for people just starting, who need to rush story to have event access.Either way, happy new year, fellow sakurabros.
>>282138Why don't just roll once to get guaranteed 5*? you have to do 10 rolls?
>>282145Because a guaranteed 5-star banner >>282099 is inherently a 10-roll batch.Normal roll prices are 30 for 1-pull, 300 for 10-pull. Looking at it tho, it's 300 paid jams, and can't be pulled with free currency.
>>282097Trial quests for those units give you a free ticket. Do em in the dailies
What the hell is this?
>>282198You can do a single pull daily for 9 _paid_ jams instead of usual 30.It's a pretty common mechanic in gachas.
wait... I can't do new year gacha with guaranteed 5*fuck this game man so fucking stingy
>>282214buy gems goyim
Are the bells and armors even worth it?The amount of mats needed for skill upgrade is brutal, I doubt I'd ever have a chance to use the bell. And the stats upgrade from the armors are just tiny +10 per piece.Maybe it's just better to buy all the mats and GPs from the shop, especially mats since the drop rate is just sadistic.What's the event shop strategy in FGO?
This is Ange event, but it feels more like Maju event with all the flashback. I hope I can roll for her (for free) soon. She's the 2nd cutest girl in this game.I really like how this event is like FGO's interlude. Nothing grand and very laid back. There'll probably be more for each character in each region.Was the stage with the giant black bear bosses the Challenge Quest or will there be more tomorrow?
>>283591I'm holding off for now. Event stages are pretty expensive and easy, so if it comes to that it should be easy to dump all stamina into them on last couple days
>>283740OTOH, they also seem to have an actual sane droprate for ascension mats, if you need something that event stages drop.
Do you know that unlike exp and mats missions, you can get 1st time clear for GP missions every day?Free 360,000 (+60,000) GP every day.
>>283829Anon, you can get a 1st time clear bonus on all daily missions, in all difficulties. This even includes stages opened up with a key.It may go away/be nerfed back down after a more permanent daily stage rework is in.
>>283832I didn't get bonus on non-GP missions, though. Weird.
>>283833Are you sure? Everything gets sent to your gift box.
Who's your favorite girl so far and why?
>>283886I like Nanako because her ult looks fun.There's a lot of really high tier designs, but 3d models and/or ult animations are very often lacking.
>>283886Kyouko seems like my type.
>>283886Rin (sniper) and the pole dancer. I don't have them though, sad.>>283897She and Kusuno are the cutest.
>>284468>pole dancerI did a double take when I saw her because she's the spitting image of Maria.
8 days left to grind and there's no more new content.
Remember to buy the gift package from the store
you know the mech designs doesnt really work for meit wouldve been better if they when full conventional mecha and just do cockpit face zoom in the np
>>259067How is the game doing in Japan right now?
>>284892Is that refreshed monthly? I bought 10 gacha tickets already.There's still no way to get gold and purple crystals right?
>>284913A lot of tweets on twitter all the time, but the actual performance statistic isn't really good, I believe. I blame the initial region lock and also the current time-zone lock.
>>284892this is literally from fgofucking DW
>>283897that feel when DW is not doing the same justice to sega sega AM2 fgo arcade looks really good
When is the 1/4 AP dailies gonna end?
>>286027It's been extended until a more permanent decision is made on what to do with those stages. Next director letter on Friday, so it might go away then.
>>286045All the drop rate and AP cost complains made them panic, I guess.
DW really learned jack shit from FGOOr maybe it's all salt river doing this shit
Choose
>>287685I Like Ao and her huge daikon!These pictures are all really neat
does the ce limit break works the same as fgo?
>>287685I like the cripple
>>287828Me too.
I think they updated the level 55 daily for mats.There's now 1 boss unit with 100k HP in every single Wave, but the drop rate is better (?)You can't no-damage cheese the stage with low level range units anymore.
>>284926>I blame the initial region lock and also the current time-zone lock.Japanese soshages usually don't count on overseas players. I've researched a bit and there's barely any mention of IP blocks on japanese side.>>278426This is sad.The game has the potential to unfuck itself. It's a known IP, even though many Sakura Taisen fans don't like the new look. Sega shilled the game with popular Vtubers(wasn't Marine and some other hololive supposed to voice one of the new characters in the future?). The visuals and the battle system are better than your average kusoge, despite some jankiness. BUT it's DW. They don't know how to create better content for an existing game. Remind me how many years did it take to implement a "return to skill select" button in FGO?
>>287877i think dw will keep supporting the game even in this abyssmal state, at least just to build experience so they can go on their own without FGO
>>287877One of popular vtubers is also a huge fan of Sakura Taisen. She covered ST1 and 3's OP back then.
>>287877>wasn't Marine and some other hololive supposed to voice one of the new characters in the future?Yeah Marine and Fubuki. I can only assume they're saving them for when the game needs more advertising in a few months time.
I was thinking it today. Like each of these models has to be expensive as fuck to make and animate for. And each girl gets a separate model for there casual clothes, right? Unless they got a backlog planned months in advance, I;m sure they do, how are they gonna keep adding to the gacha pool regularly? Doesn't seem like it's really paying off profit wise either but I was dealing with doomposting for years in /drag/ so that's probably not true.
>>287685Fuuka is nice, but Asebi hits basically all of the buttons for me.
Chapter 3 in a week or so.Nice, new content already.
>enemy is 200k but lvl 50 units only have 5k hpwat
>>289573Your tanks should have way more HP, but yeah, combat is all about alphastriking and skills that make you survive an enemy turn.
>>284913>cost 3 billion to make>only did 70 million backNot very good according to this article. Game is failing hard and is regulary in the 200th ranks. Sega seems worried, they put too much faith into DW.https://biz-journal.jp/2021/01/post_200847.html
>>290931>cost 3 billion to makeHow in the everfucking world?That's 30 mil USD, it's not AAA for sure, but you can knock out a dozen of cheap gachas for that money at the very least.
>>290931>>290961I personally would take the news with pinch of salt, That site feel's like the usual clickbait siteBut i agree they put too much faith in DW.
>>290931because DW is retarded and they think doing the same shit as FGO will make it as big
>>290931That website is not trustworthy going from what I heard but i wouldn't be surprise the game is not currently doing well either.
There's a special 1 day gacha today.I wanted Arino, but this new unit is good too.Tickets are great.
>>291512Nice.It's two groups, alternating until Jan 12, both groups will be featured on last day.
>>287877its pretty sad they even made the pre-register milestone with vtuber, "register so we can get vtuber on this literally who old IP" and it kind of pissed the nips off
>have farmed enough to buy most things on the event store>still haven't dropped a single event CE>have spent 240 AP trying to get brown gear mats>still haven't got anything...
I need 17 more
Apparently a producer letter is out.Is there anything noteworthy written in it?
>>294696Next main story chapter releases on 12th.Daily farm changes are coming on 19th 1/4 AP + doubled first completion rewards remain until then.Combat balance adjustments coming in January.>We will make it possible to exchange materials by "purchasing" so that you can collect the desired materials.>Exchange items can be obtained from subquests (attribute quests) and free quests, so>we hope that you will find them useful for training.>In addition, replacement items will be dropped in addition to the material drops so far,>so I would like to be able to grow them without waste when I want to grow this character .> ・ Materials can be exchanged by "purchasing".> -You can exchange using the exchange items obtained in battle.> -Replacement items will be dropped in free quests and subquests (attribute quests) in addition to the existing material drops.So daily mats stages and story stages will also drop some sort of currency that you can turn in for evolution items.
>>294702Thanks.
Rolled Benishi and I'm honestly dissapointed that she has a single attack animation for every move. I mean Shino and even lower rarity girls have at least 2 animations for attacks. While I'm grateful they give lower rarity characters a good treatment, I expected more visual variety after FGO, I guess.
>>294702>Daily farm changes are coming on 19th 1/4 AP + doubled first completion rewards remain until then.Yea, but I'm still not getting ANY silver mats like >>293994 even after afk farming for days.
>>294711Yeah I got two characters to 70 and gave up for now. Genuinely don't understand how anyone thought that system was shippable.
LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES
>>2947477AP missions seem to have marginally better rates fwiw
Game's super flopping.Better to jump ship than carry on playing.
>>294763I can't use auto to beat level 55
>>294771You don't understand. My perfect plan is that I jump ship from better performing gachas to this, and then once SK eventually fails I'll finally be free.
So that 3 bil yen article sparked a bit of a dramahttps://www.menuguildsystem.com/sakura-kakumei-flaming/https://note.com/game_i/n/n6a74d96e0321Basically everyone is backpedaling on claims of both budget and revenue. Safe to say that it's not doing great though, game is starting to dip below 400th on iOS
>>295578The TLDR for anyone who hasn't read the article is that the claims made about the game flopping hard are the product of shitposts piled on top of shitposts. Some eceleb made a video about the game flopping using metrics from a site that does not stand behind its own reporting of sales figures, and then some Sankaku Complex-tier "journalist" wrote an article based off of the youtube video he saw.
>>295604>believing ecelebs
>>295578what went wrong?
>>295652People are shitting on the whole droprates thing but I honestly think this isn't important in grand scheme of things. There are so many of those budget mobages, a lot of success is down to chance, it feels. We don't know what the actual budget is, but it's not impossible that it will chug along long enough to make the investment back and turn some profit.DW probably could have had roped more old players in by using original (or even shin-style) chonkbots instead of basically making a gaiden story, but who knows if that would actually lead to larger or smaller playerbase. Or they could've tried to do trpg gameplay. Or a million other things.As is, it's a not-terrible autobattler with what seems like pretty shallow mechanics, OC characters, and middling production value.
>>294747upI hate it
>>295676Production value is middling and that 3b article likely involved a lot of other shit and maybe even involved the reboot console version. Sales are definitely disappointing from a game launched around year-end as that's usually when japanese users tend to spend a ton. I'd reckon lack of marketing and advertising came to do with this since even lesser and smaller franchises can make way more in their opening month.
>>295676thats what i thought. it was a pretty good mobage with somewhat new mechanic. They could fix drop rates but i feel the main problem it is not attracting enough people. its time to bring back the OG characters to lure oldfags in
>>293994>around AT LEAST 500 AP later...It's so tiring.
>>295763Well let's hope Level 50 is enough to beat the main story until the ToS. Because there's no way in hell I'd be able to do 3rd ascension for any character.
>>295765Just wait for farming changes to happen. But also, highest end storyline is level 30 now, next chapter is likely going to be 40, so who cares.
>>295736Other than marketing and initial development I thought that figure would include operational and development costs with Delightworks over the next 5 years (assuming that contracts are written in advance and paid over the contract term so that the developers can allocate planners and artists long-term. Some money might also be included for stretch or revenue goals)
SoDead before 2022?
>>295830If DW wished it, FGO can help making it float but meh
Kek
>>295867I don't remember them T-posing like this.
>do 7 AP mats mission>there are 1-4 100k HP enemies>none of them dropped anything>you do the mission again hoping they will drop something>they didn'tsuch is Sakura Revolution™

>>298255>>298263
>>298263Right wins in my book because she looks like a younger version of Maria from OG Sakura Wars.
Man.. they are putting in so much effort into this game. I hope it works out for them, would hate to see Sakura wars die.
>>298705Isn't Idola, another Sega mobage, still around despite being completely irrelevant since its release? I think Sakura Kakumei will be fine.
>>298747Idola has a very good chance of being connected to the new PSO2:NGS release since they both take place in around the same timeframe. Most likely different universes but the original PSO2 story messed with alternate universes so it wouldn't be a surprise if they decided to go that route. Ignoring story, Idola gives you items for PSO2 as well if you link your SEGA account so it's safe to say that as long as PSO2 is alive then Idola will be too.No idea if the same can be said for Sakura.
I would sacrifice sakura wars to fuck over delightcunt jews

Are we getting another event soon?
how long will this game last?
>>303472Based on the map and Shino's NP level, 6-7 more chapters.
>>259067she looks like she fucks gaijins
>>303472The very battle you do in the story is probably the final battle or right before the final battle, and it has a date associated with it--February 26 of the 101st year of Taisho. The game starts in the 100th year of Taisho. Presumably the end of the main story is going to line up with the RL date next year.
1 mil downloads reached. They are giving 9 gacha tickets, one per day, starting now
New ticket system is in.AP costs are back to full values.Items cost 50~400 tickets. Seems like it's a couple days grind per item at the top end, but this should be way better than having to macro for weeks.Also basic blueprint drop rate increased.
>>305664Did they actually change anything about the drop rate?It's nice that I don't need to spend 1-2 hours to use my AP for almost nothing at all.
>>305670I don't think daily stage droprates changed, outside of those basic blueprints.You get tickets on top of normal drops, so it's a way to make guaranteed incremental progress.
>>305674I hate those x500 money so much. Enemies should only drop mats in mats missions.
ONE ticketThe rate up is real.
>>306491I singled angelica like some weeks ago. I actually was trying for the CE.
Guy with very weak Japanese who has a question about the story: where does BLACK fit into the equation when it comes to the thing about the JP government's new power system draining people's spirit and turning them into demons? Are they just being used as enforcers, or do they play a central role in the operation and maintenance of the power system? Also, what's the prime minister's stake in all of this? Just power? Or is he secretly a demon?
>>306796They're just typical fame-grubbing wannabe idol gold diggers hired by prime minister Kira.
>>306796They're clueless about it because "lol mind control".
New soragumi's space girl event announced when you open the game.
So for some reason 3* anulets contribute pitiful amounts of xp when they are used as upgrade fodder. Anyone understands what's up with that?I thought it was a bug day1, but it's still how upgrade works today.
>>312064Pretty sure you're supposed to keep the 3*s and use only 1/2*s as fodder, seemed pretty obvious to me. They don't want people burning the stuff that might be slightly useful assuming you don't have all 5 stars yet.
>>312074I've got 200 3* and above amulets, after compacting dupes into t4 versions. There's no reason not to fodder these
>>312080How do you NP4 a CE? can you just combine dupes?
>>312167just feed dupes same as you would levelup fodder
ever since daily mission update, I barely get any material drop anymore except for the paper-like materials. I hate it.
>>312243For stuff that's not schematics/crystals, story stages seem like a (somewhat) better option.This doc has all the drop locationshttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Z_C13dt4kspRTPXtWmXHHOno7zbi4XUEnZ0spOfVrBo/edit?usp=sharing
>>312252It's pain in the ass to 3-star every free missions to unlock the highest difficulty, though, especially in the later chapters.And I just realized there's 2 kind of recycle tickets...
>>312294I'll just complete all the free mission for free SQ and maybe some drops if I'm lucky (never).But event is coming soon, so nvm.
This game really is hot garbage, huh? I was mildly enjoying myself in the first chapter, but then you move on and all those characters stay behind and instead you've got fujobait chinks coming out of every orifice.Doesn't help that the combat is just FGO but slower.
>>312080You're meant to sell the 3*s for gems in the other tab, 5 blue gems each.
>>259067I always try to ignore this but I can't control it anymore. The thumbnail looks like my wife here, damn it.
>>312597What's it like being blind?
>>312252>>312304>For stuff that's not schematics/crystals, story stages seem like a (somewhat) better option.Just did 17 free missions and I can testify that the higher drop rate for mats is just a myth.
when is the event?
Game just went down for update. 1.2 apk should be available shortly.>>314030Should be up after maintenance is done, 4 hours from now.
It's good that event CEs actually give drop bonus now.They also made a lot of UI changes like the party set-up and character selection are now bigger and more rectangle, NPC supports always show up, drop boxes stay on the field until the next wave to remind you of how unlucky you are with the drop, and post-battle screen now reminds you just how despair-inducing the Bond system is with its tiny EXP gain/battle and huge EXP required to level up.
I want this cute genki cat
>Got Angelica in 1 ten roll.>Got Mitsu in 1 ten roll.>Got Souka in 5 tickets.It's like all of my bad luck in FGO manifested as good luck in Sakura Kakumei.
>>314238I have 4400 SQ and 20 tickets. I want to use them, but I'm also waiting for Black. The dilemma.
>>314240Which members do you really want? Prana? Maju? Keep in mind that Prana is probably not going to be available until like February of next year.
>>314243Both are great, but Maju > Prana.I always use 1 ticket / banner so far. I just got a trash 3* CE from Souka banner and I'm thinking of keep rolling (using tickets) until I get a character or 4-5* CE.
>>314233>event CEs actually give drop bonus nowThey did for Angelica event, too
>>314353The yellow CE that you can buy from shop didn't give you any drop bonus.The one that heals 800 HP and +10 NP each wave.
>>314398Yeah, you are right, I didn't notice that at first.
Anyone else have an issue where you have to rub your phone screen during loading for battles or the game crashes? Other than that, the event's pretty easy. I'm just grinding out the level 50 one on auto.
>>314233Other stuff>we have 1 second window at the start of battle and every wave to turn on/off auto-battle now>event's free quest are now 5-10-15 AP instead of 10-20-30 like in the previous event>cat (fox) and photographer are from Hokkaido, not involved in this event at all. chapter 5 in Hokkaido? It's weird that the event is 2 weeks long, but could be finished in 1 day. I like time-locked event with relaxed pacing more instead of this content flood.And holy shit, this event seems like to be too important to be a minor event with Kouki's advanced ancient civilization and ayy lmao mystery niggas revelation.Great event anyway.
3 max LB and 2 LB3. His stamina is only 105, so he must have not farmed too much.How did he even do this with the abysmally low mats drop rate? I don't even have a single LB3 even though I've only been doing mats mission.
>>314700I doubt any of that shit will pop up again in the main story, though.>>314706What rank is that? I'm rank 31 with 77 stamina, so he's probably up at rank 50 or so. Assuming EXP requirements are exponential (they always fucking are), he's done a lot of grinding.
>>314720>Assuming EXP requirements are exponentialI don't think so. I level up very often, especially when doing story missions. I'm level 49.
>>314706Seems ahead of the curve but not unreasonable. At rank 62 I have one max LB, but could easily have second if I sit down and sort all the stuff/claim store exchanges.>>314720That's rank 60 or thereabout
>>3142341 ticket and boom, got her.
I love the exo-suit idea, but know barely anything about this series. Should I give it a try?
>>315332Sure, this isn't exactly some grand dense drama world, you don't really need any background knowledge.
>>315338Ah, the gameplay I looked up seemed like it was. Thanks for giving me the heads up.
>>315357Yeah, I want to have SEX with this fox while she makes that noise.
Fubuki and Marine are streaming rn
>>314641You should do the level 45 one instead since it gives you LB mats.Level 50 one gives you skill upgrade mats, garbage.
>>318222I already bought out the store so it's barely worth doing the event matches anymore.
Why am I so lucky with single pull? Is the real rate actually really high to keep the player base happy?
I've been farming for dog medal for a week and so far got nothing. What were they thinking with the drop rate?30 AP / mission + garbage drop rate = no progress can be donefucking hell

How the hell do you get the other two types of キセキ crystals? The blue ones are easy enough, burn all your 3 star fodder, but how do you get the others?
>>331582No idea, but I assume one of them is for when you get dupes of already maxed characters from gacha.
>>327961discussing valentines event
Valentine update:Girls with at least Bond lv 2 will give you a chocolateMy max AP increased by around 20What else?
>>331675Free 300 gemsEvent comes with 2 free skins, but they are plainclothes, won't affect battle model.
>>331675Daily AP costs reduced across the board, 30ap is now 20. Went from being able to do 2 runs from a maxed out bar to 5.
New amulets, same event mechanics as before overall.
>>331681Is that CE from gacha only? I wish that was the event shop reward/drop instead.
>>331685Think so. Event shop has a different one for sale
The daily reward for EXP mission also got changed from 18 colored EXP to 18 rainbow EXP.
Will there be a gacha banner for Mutsuha too later?
>>331726Yeah, she'll be the only one on rateup tomorrow, after that banners alternate with 2 various characters per.
>>331681>Teasing us with Prana and AkashiI hate it, bros.

>>331972>marketingI want real yuri
>>318960I've been rerolling on and off since launch in the vain hope of getting characters higher than 3* from the gacha and it still hasn't happened yet.
>>332727I've got a few 4 stars, but only one 5 star after blowing all my shit. Oh well, I guess I'll just run Himeka forever.
Why are these events so fucking stingy? I've been grinding for a few hours and I've already completely maxed out the shop.Why give us 100 pots if there's nothing to use them on aside from the awful regular missions with dogshit drop rates? At least let me buy infinite rainbow EXP from the store instead of 500, I need thousands of those fucking things.
>>332921and I need Zodiac emblems but they just never ever drop. The drop rate is so fucking impossible. They always give me the fucking leaf to upgrade skills, but never give me limit break mats.
>level 90 ange whale unfriends me after I use nothing but his support for every matchLame. Finding level 90s is easy enough, the problem is getting them to follow you back for that sweet sweet FP boost.
How do I get these things?I've spent THOUSANDS of AP and not a single one has dropped. Heck, I even got 5 event CE drops already while farming.I'm sure the drop rate is below 0.01% so I can't even macro AP refill to farm them. But a lot of (whale) players max'd their new characters to level 80/90 REALLY quick, so there must be a way to get these items consistently, but HOW?
>>335860You get some from FP gacha, so remember to use those supports. But yeah, those are the main limit on upgrades for me too.
>>335893I'm already doing that and it's not reliable at all.I need 11 more Dogs just to max 2 characters and I need to collect a lot more for other characters as well.But a lot of people have done it, many times over.There must be another way...
>>335893Seconding this guy that FP is going to be your main source of zodiac emblems. I just the 10th sheep I needed for Angelica from it, with it being the source of most of the others as well.
>>335893>>336012I just spent 50k FP and only got 1 zodiac, which I don't need.
>>336172150k FP and didn't get a single Dog.This feels so hopeless. What's the secret?
>>336172>>336176Desire sensor at work.
>>336221I put that shit on the questionnaire. You can tell why they're so reluctant to change the drop rates, it's the only thing keeping any player base at all. If it takes 5 years to max out one character, obviously you've got to log in every day.The second people have a dozen 4/5*s maxed out, there's no reason to play between events. I've got 10k+ of all the event materials right now because there's nothing to spend them on, and the game doesn't even have a "max out" button so you have to spam click it a million times to spend your shit.
>>336437Yeah I wish I could buy zodiac and of course, MORE EXP ORBS. There should be unlimited supply of them just like the 10,000 GP.I think the drop rates for zodiac are way higher in Main Quest, but then you have to sacrifice not getting limit break material pity tickets.Free Quest gives you "papers", "crystals" and pity tickets for LB matsMain Quest gives you higher rates for zodiac and mats in general and pity tickets for skill level matsTo do either LB or upgrading skill level, you need to do both type of quests. And with the drop rates and AP cost, it would take a long time just to upgrade a single character. And even then, there's an EXP problem.This game design is whack.
>>336585The pity tickets seem so shit that I've barely used them, the materials they apply to aren't that uncommon anyway because you'll probably get them while farming for the other stuff you can't buy with pity tickets.The whole thing is just designed so that players have some mediocre level of "progress" to make over the months between updates. It doesn't help that the latest event literally has 3 hours of content. If you played the game for 3 hours on auto, you could buy out the store, and they gave everyone a ton of stamina pots too, which just magnified the issue for a 2 week event.EXP orbs wouldn't be that bad if there was a rainbow day instead of "all". Personally, my biggest issue is the level 2 pages, you need like 30+ of the things to break level 50, and there isn't even any content right now past 55.For my "how likely are you to keep playing the game in the future" question on the questionnaire, I gave the game a solid 4/10. I love Sakura Wars, I enjoy a lot of the characters and story in this spin off, but the fucking awful FGO game design just sours the whole experience. And with a slashed budget and throwaway events, it's not long before the shutters come down and leave the story unfinished forever.
>>336849I like the story, gameplay and the characters.I don't expect a long-lasting game, but I hope it finishes its main story at least.
>>336851The gameplay? Really? Just steamrolling through everything with a level 90 support isn't very interesting, and I only ran into one instance where that wasn't possible, although I haven't finished chapter 3 yet.The only reason you ever need to take it off auto is because the AI is braindead and won't use its skills or save ougis for an instant final round clear. I'm just glad it can understand where to place units based on their range, without that you'd just have to run pure frontline comp.
You know, there're two stages that can help you grind all kind of LB mats and zodiac really efficiently. One of them is against the hardest boss in the game, the Lelouch-voice.Today, they just stealthily fucking buffed his HP from a little below 300,000 to 477,000. I can no longer kill him in 1 turn with Shino's NP. I can still beat him easily, but now it's way more bothersome and a little bit more time consuming, since he has an invincibility skill..This is just dirty. Really dirty. DW will do anything to slow down our progress...
Is it too late for me to start this game? Is Iris playable?
>>343682You can get through all the content in like a day, it's not too late. And no, Iris isn't playable. This game is set like 100 years after the other games, probably in an alternate timeline.
>>343682>Iristhat's a pretty low blow, taichou
>>343836how do you get used to these play doh models
>have full AP>maintenanceuh...
>install the game>maint Ok i get it lolAny advices for rerolling? Any trick to avoid redownloading the whole thing?
>>344702Altema has risemara ranking, but honestly it's not important. Also, >>265276Overall difficulty is pretty low, main challenge comes from having to farm ascension mats, it's fine to just reroll for 2+ 5-star characters or for your waifu.
What changed after maintenance?>AP reduction for missions is permanent>extra tutorial>you can use recycle tickets from upgrade screen (bugged?)>you'll be able to buy all kind of mats (fragment/zodiac) in the future?
>>3447891.5M downloads reached, free event amulet
Also, new app icon
>>344807>freewhere?
>>344832starting tomorrow and until 28 you can claim one daily, up to a max total of 5 (so full refine).
>>344789They added story replay
>>344871How come FGO doesn't have all these features yet? lol
Playing the new Nier, it's crazy how a similar concept of a high budget installment in an old franchise was handled by 2 different teams.Practically everything SK gets wrong is done right in NR. The grind isn't based on bullshit drops, you get the drops you want every time, so players don't get frustrated about making no progress.They opened with a fucking Automata gacha to entice fans of the franchise, instead of hoping that a cast of unknowns would interest players.The gameplay is the same braindead auto-battle shit, but NR lets you fucking skip it much faster. And it even has a low graphics battery conservation mode that lets you queue up to 10 runs at once, while auto using your stamina potions. Grinding through all your stamina requires way less attention. Also, the potions themselves are way more plentiful, I've got hundreds of the things and you get 50 per day for practically nothing. In SK? Yeah, you're out of stamina in 2 minutes and they've only given us a handful of pots.As an aside, the new update improved performance by a lot on android. It used to take like 10 seconds to load into the support menu, now it's almost instant. Loading screens are also barely present, my one complaint is that it's a hassle to use your items before every match, the dumb pop-up was better.
>>344904Also, this is fucking unforgivable.Yes, I had to tap that button OVER A THOUSAND TIMES. I'm just glad I had a stylus so I can do the whole takahashi meijin thing and tap 16 times a second.
>>344907GP is useless.I want more EXP orbs...
>>344709thanks will reroll for the pianist/ojousama/gamer... any emu working? btw do we get to see nadeshiko ever again ;_;
>>345442She'll show up mind controlled at the end of the Japan arc if the game doesn't shut down before then, which is pretty likely.
>>344904>walking simulator>goodIt's even more of an auto-battle simulator than this game since at least in this game, enemies have massive damage so you kinda have to control your characters.
>>345725Having to occasionally move out of the way of a massive AVOID THIS bar barely even qualifies as gameplay. Honestly, I prefer games that just auto-play themselves, it's not like any mobage can ever have good gameplay.Plus, the strategy element is almost completely invalidated by bringing level 90 supports to every level. Hell, even FGO just boils down to an unlimited NP build where you just spam your strongest attack as much as possible.
They made another stealth patch where character selection menu (friend unit and squad).... became "wider"
>>346832Actually ... everything became "wider" (or smaller) for some reason. Is this patch or my most recent samsung update? I don't know. Compare pic related to this >>343048Is it just me?
>>346837Yeah, they messed with the scaling on everything for some reason. Maybe it's better for supporting weird resolutions.
>>346840>"they"DW or Samsung?
>>346844DW.
>>346837Last update resized/moved some UI elements around, but battle UI hasn't moved much for me.Quest notification no longer covers up stamina counter and has a dismiss button and such.They also did something with 2d art assets or their rendering, because that stuff now looks sharpened
>>346858My phone is brick size and It's actually difficult to click now since everything is so far away from each other.
holy shit this gacha sucks been rerolling nonstop for like 3 days and didnt get 2 5*s not even a single time... 3%? more like 0,3%!
>We're already at KansaiI wonder how much longer it will be before Fubuki and Marine's characters make it in.
