apparently it will have a global cbt in a few dayswhat is there to expect of it?
I'd love to receive some global CBT from her, if you catch my drift
>>853700Game looks amazing, super cute girls, epic seven but gear isn't bullshit. But there is zero community, reddit is dead, discord seems not that popular. i never hear about the game. Worried it won't get an advertising and will race to eos. I really hope not.
>>853781what does he mean by this?
>>854081I wish for the loli in OP's picture to stomp on my genitals repeatedly, possibly while mocking me and making smug facesOn topic tho, I agree with the other anon in confirming I had not heard of this game before and I know literally nothing about it even after having looked into it a bitThe art seems really really good, but I cannot tell whether the monetization is gonna be AL-tier or Fate-tier, and that's a big thing for me
>>854098Reading what people have been saying about it other places it looks like they are copying e7. A 200 roll pity that I am guessing doesn't carry over. So it will burn impulse chuds but people who can wait for good banners should be fine. I never spent a cent in e7 and after a few years had 90% of the roster. It's just about being patient and not trying to have everything day one .
>>854126That's weird because I've always seen E7 described as one of the greediest and grindiest games out there, almost on the same level as Fate and some of the AFK shovelwares. But even if it's as tame as you say, I was hoping for a more relaxed one a la AL so I'll prolly skip
>>854131Ya I don't know where you heard that but the gacha was not difficult. You are probably thinking about the gear which was definitely shit and where most whales spent money. But no it won't be super casual like AL/GFL so if you want that laid back this one probably isn't for you. But it still looks really nice maybe just give it a try when it comes out see how it feels before making a final judgement.
>>853700Is this azur lane but with mech girls?
>>854386More like Epic Seven with mech girls (and less cancer)
>>853700if you look at the jp reviews they kind of got shafted, so expect the same for global i guess since they have the same publisher
>>854413How badly did they get shafted compared to CN?
>>853700epic seven but no homos and only big titty androids
>>854413Every time I find a niche gacha I like it ends up being a super shitty cash grab ran by fly by night scam company with zero interest in building a community just milking suckers with terrible prices and horrible rates.
>>854454They got the Ryza collab about 9 weeks after launch. Accelerated schedule where there is no downtime between events. Unpredictable banner schedules as Kaguya was released months earlier on JP.
>>854126good thing for their collab is only 90 rolls for guarantee but you still can get off rate up while climbing the steps.
>>853700I'd like some mecha musume kino so guess I'll keep an eye on this
>>854413Damn, well if they are doing the rush to catchup thing hopefully it they don't just drop it after.
CBT starts in a couple of hours. The main download links aren't working for whatever reason but the apk works. https://apkdownload.com/down_Artery-Gear-Fusion/com.bilibilien.arterygear.html
>>854413They could rush if they give us free pulls....just saying.
SOON(tm)
Tried the CBT for a few minutes. Not voiced so decided to wait for the official launch which should be. Looks good though, e7 but no males and tons of fanservice. Boobies everywhere and girls in their underwear. Hopefully we don't have to wait too long for the real thing. Bit worried about the translation though, it looked pretty rough with misspellings all over.
>>855643english dub for global
>>855655So retarded, they waste money on this shit that no one cares about. Just give us a jp dub and spend that money hiring an actual translator so we aren't stuck with shitty mtl.
>the tl calls you [name]Commander with no spacelmao did they just directly translate the honorific and do nothing else
Guys, its just CBT.
Anyone having trouble downloading from the APK link?
>>855655Is there an option for jp voices?
this game seems to use arknights system where you are only guaranteed at least one 4* in your FIRST 10 pulls on each banner rather, rather than every 10rollso it's best to just single pull on each banner until you get your 4* and then savethere is a 200 roll spark to get the current rateup character on limited banners, or if you do 200 rolls on the standard banner you get to pick any 5* from the standard poolnewbie missions give picrel guaranteed on day 1, coombait levels are pretty high>>855792CBT is all JP voices, they haven't even added EN yet.
>>855795>coombait levels are pretty highthis is what I wanted to hear
>>854126the pity carries over in a way. the elite/event points convert to regular and that shop rotates 5* chars that you can buy for 200 points. so if you impulse like a chud you wont be totally fucked long term
the free 5* shinobu seems pretty strong for clearing story and farming trashher 0 cd basic attack triggers an AOE nuke every time she hits an enemy below 50% hp, including if her attacks bring them below 50%, and she has very high speed so she usually acts first. with enough attack she can aoe oneshot all three waves for easy fast clears
strongest char is a 4* (alice) so pretty much when the game comes out you can just choose your level of reroll autism.Level 1 reroll would be just do the infinite for ginga + key 3* like grace/roko prolly take you 5-10 min at most. (alice isnt on the infinite banner)Level 2 reroll would be what i recommend is just use pre reg rolls and go for alice on the elite banner since the rate up 5* is a nice def down role filler compared to the event one and once you get alice you just do infinite like level 1 reroll. This can be easily multi instanced since tutorial is short. this would probably take <1 hourLevel 3 reroll would be go for alice + sirius but this would take probably a day of multi instance rerolling but for autists it could be worth it since you wont lose much if you are behind a day or 3. could also just do alice + any 5 which would take hours but not days.the only real blow away 5* besides ginga is sirius at launch. 4* like alice and the event one are on par or better in situations. 3* grace is like the best farmer in the game, 3* roko is a fat boss killer, kana/timy and a bunch of other 3* all blast shit and you get one of the best healers on login day 2 (4* morris) my strat will be to roll for alice and maybe +1 5* but i doubt it cause i know how strong 3/4* are. like another anon said the collab banners are op and those ryza units are top tier so they are easy chars to go for so ill prob chill for them. roll income for f2p is nearly 60 rolls a month minimum btw
>>855859also the exchange shop that your points roll over to if you roll on event/elite banners will have sirius eventually so you could just get alice and whatever rolls you do arent going to be wasted since you will get sirius at some point. you really cant really fuck up long term since even if you impulse every roll you can pick and choose which 5* you want in the shop as they rotate.the only real thing that you can fuck up is not rolling alice so just focus on her as your primary reroll goal.

Hi JP player here, jp almost half-year anniversary and they doing re-run the first asura event.Just played the EN and they already unlock the 4th gear farm which in jp we just wait a couple of months to get it.Here some tips that will(maybe) help youStory: all you need to progress in story is AG called 04 and grace, they going to help you push at least ch 7or8 story. not much happen in story, it's pretty mid just sayingDaily resource:exp and gold daily only give once extra rewards per day, just do it once since it's not worth to farm it over and over. for money grind i'll tell you in a secondmoney:this game need a TONs of money, but there is a method to aquire them by grinding gear equipments. if you can reach phase 7(6* rarity) of any type, you can grind this by repeat it 30 times with auto ai, then after that you can sell the equipment that has shit stats. 30 run can easily gives you 100k if you didn't get a single good gear. yes it's hard to get a good gearGear equipments:not much to say, just get equipment that good with your AG like attack/crit damage to your carry or health/counter engine to your support/healer. there is also AG that scalling with speed/health so you know what to do.Anything after you reach lvl 35 and clear 6-10 story:there is operation called waypoint, its weekly thing that give you goodies such as gacha ticket/energy/skill lvl up mats/ and red crystal for swapping gear stats.lava rift just clear it 100 floors and get the rewards. its gives you (idk forgot how many) gems and gold chip(for level up AG skills), the rewards itself reset every month and you dont need to clear it again, you just collect it and wait again next monthdont forget to join alliance since they too give you points to trade some goods like stamina pot/skill lvl up/ and 6*AG touka(monthly, also not very good)pvp just pvp, just do it daily 10 times and get points to exchange items in supply like stamina pots/skill lvl-up/ and 6* AG lydia(decent AG)
I remember Neisa and Onean as Skyrim follower mods from like 5 years ago. Interestinghttps://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/75333https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/82533Enjoy my poorly cropped masterpiece>>855952Hows the monetization look? If they don't pull some censorship bullshit I'm gonna play it regardless for the mecha tits but I'm getting tired of games that spam limited banners
>>855952since it's still cbt, dont think too much about progress. just play and make sure you good with the game.there is notes you need to know before playing live server:In JP, they rush banner like fast fast. they dont stop releasing broken AG(still no jesse tho)There is 2 collab in just about 5 months, first ryza and 2nd is FAG (frame arms girl). and shit you not, the 2nd collab is trash that makes me almost quit the game.there is good/broken AG depend on rarity(JP current)5*:Milvus. great dps for pvp, mostly one shot anythingShura. first banner and broken after she get her UE, her damage scalling with HP so big hp dps is so good in this gameSirius. fast as fuck, she is the most dependable green dps for now(hopely forever)Cream. your broken healer for pvp, if you saw one in their formation you better back off since she is nuts(or you got speed and sirius you probably fine, i guess)Revisia. another healer but she can revive your unit and give that unit immunity, that's it4*:Alice. you need that extra turnMorris. your beloved healer that can heal all units every 2 turns if you use her 2nd skill to herselfRuri. broken dps AG in pvp(par with milvus), she can one shot mostly anything that not green in the field. also she has major role in octopus gear boss(4th one in gear boss challenge)Colux. she is speed user that can retract enemy's action gauge, good dps with speed are broken in this gameChihaya. first wellfare unit and she is better than any wellfare unit yet, good debuffer with extra turn when crit hits. also can extends debuff of the target 1 turn.3*:Timmy. major roles in pvp, maxed out her speed to 260 and you win(mostly if your dps not choke or anything)Roco. poison stack, like 5%/poison. you can stack mostly 5-6, if you give her turn with alice and speed her, the enemies will have a bad time. she is too good for low rarity units.
>>855963no cencorship on JP, just saw shinobu on EN i think they dont do anything with cencorship in EN yet. banner are not limited, once they finish their rate up, they will added to elite/novice banner. but collab do limited, you can get the unit with only 90 rolls tho, pretty neat
>>855977Wait seriously the loli Krau has still not been released yet?
>>855977Collab units:Ryza(atelier). broken broken broken (must have this unit)Lyra(atelier). broken too, probably the most broken ST dps for blueBaselard(FAG). broken with speed, counter, and debuff(atk down + great slow), not much to say.Stylet(FAG). like baselard, but better counter less debuff.notes on collab:YOU CAN GET UNIT AFTER 90 ROLLSFor ryza, you CANNOT maxed out UE equipment any gacha units if you only do it f2p.yeah that scummy shit, you need to gacha more after you get the unit on 90 rolls to get mats for UE.also ryza has the best event in the game yet, just save your stamina potion just for this event and grind the fuck out that lottery. at least 500 pots you can spent here can give you a TONS of equipment enhance material since it's pretty hard to get.FAG collab is shit, you can only maxed out one out of 2 gacha unit, like UE and skill level. just choose wisely what unit you want to maxed out, the other one would have lvl 0 skill and UE tho.event the story is shit in this collab, not like ryza, this event is so shit that i almost quit because how bad that is.IF you want full f2p, just save your gems for some banner that you want to get because 14days for each banner and back to back good banner will give you hard time.that's it sorry for bad english
>>855988i dont know that unit, is that CN unit?
please compare the units to e7 for my pea brainwho are the hot oneswho are the good ones
>>853700Can't wait for Smilegate to sue this game
>>855952>>855977>>856000Oh yeah i forgot the banner listhere is the JP gacha history that i collect:Shura (Good, since it just got rerun you can wait 5 months for half-anniv rerun if you dont get it)Cream (Good, she got in the shop early so you got 2nd chance)Ryza (All units are equally good, just make sure you have total 180 rolls for this event)Revisia (Good unit, the first healer that can revive unit ((2nd one is Alma but she is late in CN)) also she is cute)Pavonis (Big titty mom that burn enemies down, pretty good i must say)Kagura (not that good, you can skip it)Condor (pretty good dps, but not that broken. can skip it or if you dont have any good green dps she is better than nothing)Isabelle (Best counter cream on pvp, just make sure she is fast enough to kill enemies buff before she is the one who get killed)Victoria (not bad dps, but not that good either. you can skip it if you want)Yuui (Timmy counter in pvp, also good dps. you can skip if you have enough red dps or dont care pvp at all)FAGs (get one you like and skip the other one, just need 90rolls to get)Veronica (current banner on jp, she is broken if combine with Lyra since her attack pierce anything. if you dont have lyra, she is pretty good dps too, just give her all good equips)Shura rerun (if you don't get it from the first banner, you can get her this time i think)all banner are 14 days each, only ryza collab 20 days since Lyra banner come later on part 2 event
How's the PvP mode?In real time vs some player or vs someone's team controlled by AI?
>>856062vs someone's team controlled by AI
>>854922ok tried the cbt, goddamn they go pretty wild with the skill anims. Actually seems pretty neat, hope they don't fuck it up
>>856134>hope they don't fuck it upthis is what I'm praying fir right now
>>854126
this game looks fun, i check the character list and i think i want 4 of then, hope i get enough gems in the start of the game to roll for cream if i save everything and still had enough for ryza, the other characters i like will take some time to get here.
>>856000>>855977>>855952>>856055Thank you for this information much love from en.
>>856055If you don't mind could you tell us a little bit about the pvp meta. How it started and how it changed? Is speed king forever like it is in e7? Is there a bruiser/tank meta? What is the best meta for f2p players vs whales? Can you build for pve and pvp or do you need to focus on only one? Aside from the few banner characters you mentioned what other characters are core for pvp?
>>856314NTA, I played about 2-3 months on release. It was pretty much speed cleave meta all the way. The units are 90% carbon copies of Epic 7 kits down to having the exact same proc rates and cooldown times. The biggest difference is you don't have ML units here, so Artery Gear rips off kits from E7 ML versions but drops them on RGB units. There are also no artifacts, so a lot of the really broken E7 units that rely on specific artifacts aren't going to be as dominant here.In practice, you reroll for Alice which is A.Lots, CR push and damage buff to your cleaver. Timmy is Judith, so it's all about stacking speed on her to go first, push Alice, push whatever cleaver you have with attack set and you win.So the early meta is going to be farming speed gear off the Wyvern rip off, with the Sigret rip off you are getting from the selector. The upside from Epic 7 is that you don't have to RNG your substats by leveling items, you already know what they are as soon as you get the item. Whoever lucks first into getting pieces with 15 speed substats for every slot other than boot gets to dominate arena. There's also a way to move substats from one item to another so if you have 2 chests with 15 speed but no 15 speed hat you can move the substats from one of the chests to a hat, so it's a lot less painful than E7.
>>855859>3* grace is the best farmer in the gamewhat does she do vs shinobu? they both seem very similar with their ability to spam 0 cd aoe moves. is it just that she's easier to get more power from dupes / tech upgrades because of low base rarity? or is it just because she has slightly higher damage multiplier>>855984>just saw shinobu on EN i think they dont do anything with cencorship in EN yether normal art is uncensored but in her super attack cutscene she is wearing a black bodysuit instead of bare-skinned so I think they accidentally left some stuff from CN in>>856000>IF you want full f2p, just save your gems for some banner that you want to get because 14days for each banner and back to back good banner will give you hard time.does f2p get enough to get the guaranteed 4* from each banner and still save or do they have to skip that?
>>856360What determines who goes first when speeds are tied? Is there a random +5 -5 like in e7?
some cool looking characters in this
>>856377Yes, they're using the same randomness as far as I could tell. Though there seems to be some obscure fuckery where the speed stat has non-displayed decimals so your 15 speed could be 15.00 or 15.99.>>856373Grace has 30% free crit rate from her S2 passive so she's really easy to gear. Also as a 3* unit she uses 3* specific skill mats so you can +5 all her skills since they are easily farmable. 5* unit skill mats are much more rare (weekly gated and/or from cash shop packs) so you're not going to want to invest a ton into a 5* just to farm when Grace does it just fine.
just woke up>>856314>Is speed king forever like it is in e7?yes, kinda. there is alot of counter in this game, unlike e7 with artifacts, this game rely on random substats from your gear equipments>Is there a bruiser/tank meta?yes, this can counter many speed cleave meta since there are unit like Della who counter anything with aoe+stun debuff(30% i think, but you can increase it with counter attack gear set up to 50% chance)>What is the best meta for f2p players vs whales?probably timmy+ruri/milvus+alice with good equipments and one random support unit. focus on maxed out timmy speed up to 260 with 4/4 speed gear set, main stat speed on thruster, all 15 speed substats for the rest equips.i only use 2 kind of formation, one speed cleave with milvus(maxed out timmy 260 spd), and the other one is bruiser/tank with maxed out hp def immunity. i manage to stay at top 70 every week f2p.>Can you build for pve and pvp or do you need to focus on only one?there are unit that only good in pvp but lacking in pve for example Timmy, you dont need maxed out speed on pve. But majority units good in both pvp and pvp like Ruri/Milvus/Ryza and more, mainly dps/healer/tanker can do both like this.>Aside from the few banner characters you mentioned what other characters are core for pvp?there is quite alot build you can make, here is other unit that core/good in pvp5*KagariNinaHearinPavonisPhantomSirius4*MorrisAcaciaDellaMaikaRuri3*TimmyNioGrace
>>856373>does f2p get enough to get the guaranteed 4* from each banner and still save or do they have to skip that?did you mean 5*? nope as far i play i cant spark any banner, but early game i think you can save up 200 rolls from honeymoon phase only(rookie mission and other stuff). after banner ends your spark points will convert into shop points that you can trade with 5* AG that rotate each 15 days i think.if you mean guaranteed 4*, there is guaranteed 1 4* when you go 10 rolls. only 5* that got rate up, 4* are random
>>856450Thank you once again. One last question, any places besides the usual to look for fan art? Would like to start collecting some to use for posting in the future if we get a general.
>>856467idk about that, maybe pixiv or twitter.
>>856465>if you mean guaranteed 4*, there is guaranteed 1 4* when you go 10 rolls.yeah that's what I meantis there enough income to do the 10 rolls on every banner and still save up enough for important characters
>>856486It's not a guarantee on just the first 10 rolls on that banner like in Arknights. How it actually works is your every *0 roll is at least a 4*. So 10, 20, so on. You don't have to do 10 draws at once either, it's the same even if you do singles.
>>856486oh that's what you mean, lemme just calculate how much gems/tix you can get from daily/weekly/monthly (not that accurate but roughly)daily:50 from missionweekly:180 from mission270-720 from pvp (most stable is 4k rank points give 420, that's about rank 200ish in JP)1 tix (sample exchange)monthly:600 from lava rift (Must clear floor 100th)so roughly you can get 3k gems (4k rank points in pvp) and 4 tix per month.this is mostly passive income, not include event/story/others
>>856490>It's not a guarantee on just the first 10 rolls on that banner like in ArknightsOh, they just fucked up the TL then I guess>>856508thanks anon
>>856515Yeah, that's definitely wrong, reads like MTL. It's pretty simple and there's no real way to fuck up. Doing singles is better but if you have over 1800 gems it only lets you do a 10 pull, so it only really applies if you're clearing a story stage and rolling every time you have over 180 - which is actually a good idea here contrary to most gacha because you could get your 5* target on roll 21 and decide not to drop another 9 rolls for a 4*. There's no real benefit out of trying to optimize 4* draws anyway, if you got your 5* target on roll 29 it might make sense to do another roll so you get a 4*, but as long as you're not missing Alice or Ruri it's whatever, most of them are middling, though Ruri dupes are nice.
I can assure you i will forget this and re-ask when the game comes out for real
Team comp recommendation? I'm just gonna bulldoze the story
is this good?
>>856661ye, looks good
does it works on bluestacks 64 bits?
>>856658i dont know if this game has aoe units but that might be useful to make it faster
>>856671yea but wasnt working on pie for me i think
>>856360Are there pure tanks here like Fallen Cecilia? Been playing up to chapter 3 now but I can only recognize healers and dps
>>856682There's no effective tanks, not early on. Acacia is sort of a budget C.Armin, but without the artifact options tanks had in E7 it's hard to make anything work. Once people get a bit established Della starts being used pretty often on defense to counter cleave, but you need to farm not-Banshee for a counter set so she's not an early investment. They were supposed to release Krau, bunny girl version, but the banner got skipped on JP for some reason.
>>856703So just put your healer out front or what? Does it matter? Will the AI target the frontline more often?
what's the best server pacific or america?
>>856705Yeah, same deal as early E7 for PvE, your healer is going to tank. Slap HP on Morris and put her in front, she spams S2 on herself and reduces her CD then keeps the rest of the party up with S3.
>>856658>bulldoze storygrace + 04 + any green + any fourth char you want (your team already matches this so you're basically fine)grace and 04 should give enough non-cd-dependent cleave to keep oneshotting trash waves as long as you keep them leveled up and geared. you need at least one each of r g b in your general story team since a lot of stages have "use one r", "use one g", "use one b" as 3* requirements. you might swap ruri for ginga as your fourth for more single target damage in boss stages. not sure which other units are great boss nukers. Or you could swap 04 and Hearin out for Morris and a green DPS
>>856708the one you live near retardthe game wipes in a week
which emulator is better to play this game?
>>856708Pacific will be full of Singapore and other SEA whales that will shit on your face in PvP, but they'll also keep the game alive in the process. America will be dead in 3 months unless the entire E7 playerbase decides to migrate over to spite Smilegate.
is Nio good? I like her BOOBAS
>>856737she's ok. she brings def down debuff for bosses and has a decent hp-scaling aoe nuke so you have somewhere to put all your hp gear while giving the atk gear to other partymembers
pvp is gay should i bother with the game
>>856703>you need to farm not-Banshee for a counter setUh oh. Does this game also expect you to do 24/7 cancerous grinding
>>856779slightly better epic seven
>>856000>FAG collabThat's all you needed to say. As long as I get a Stylet I'm happy.
>>856787Good thing about farming here is you can farm offline. Just load up a bunch of stamina, set it to offline farming and close the app. When you login later you get your results.
id rather skip CBT and wait for actual release, are there any CBT rewards? Or can I just skip it?
Ngl the s3 animations aren't doing it for me.
>>856939you can skip it, im just okaying the CBT to get a grip of the story and mechanics so I can just burn on when it gets released
rabi?
>>857047
>>853700have they given a launch date? i need a more games whit mecha girls
at what point do we start farming hunts for gear? do we go through all 7 chapters then switch to hunt or what? at chapter 4 and clearing has slowed a bit with just +6 attack gear
>>857160You can start doing hunts if you can do at least phase 7 which drops 6* gear, before that it's a waste. Progress through the rookie training missions, they give you a couple of 5* attack sets with crit substats which are decent enough. There's a 6* set in stage 6 of the pre-mission briefing but doing that takes a bullshit amount of cat orb stage runs, something like 240 so I wouldn't bother. I'd focus on farming event stages or hard story stages to get fodder and 6* your main team before gambling stamina on hunts.
>>856962What more do you want? They are super fluid and flashy as hell.
>>856705>So just put your healer out front or what? Does it matter? Will the AI target the frontline more often?no, the AI here target who is with disadvantaged element, like if the bosses is green, they would likely target the blue one. but sometimes the frontliner got beaten too, i forgot the chances.the formation itself doesn't matter unless you got ryza which her passive makes the ally in position 1 share 30% of damage taken towards her.>is Nio good?she is good tanker with taunt, just maxed out her hp>>857160>at what point do we start farming hunts for gear?still CBT but, clear ch 6 or 7, reach lvl 35, unlock(and clear if possible, especially lava rift) all content first then farm 6* gear. from newbie mission you can get 6* 4/4 atk set. That set has pretty good substats, don't hesitate to upgrade it once you got em. They really help your progress in the game.
>>857251It's the chibi sprites I think. Been playing games with on-model sprites for a while, watching a chibi try to do something epic just looks really off
>>857442Only gacha I know of that doesn't use chibi's is e7. Ya it's not as good but you get used to it. Blue archive does some really good things with their chibi's. You can show a surprising amount of character if they care to make the effort.
>7 chapters means 7 hardmodes means 7 ship upgrade tickets>need 12 to max out all ship systemshmmm
>>853700Seems the blue bunny eared chick is just Sigret. What's the "wyvern" team of this game?
>>857732guess just bring her and it will be fine
Dam. Seems like general consensus is they are very stingy on currency so you won't be pulling unless you buy the monthly. No way this model is going to work for the western audience when it's already not doing well in JP and CN.
>>857939they should make the wyvern drop it
>>853700Doesn't look like it has any new feature that other old gacha have imma wait for nikke instead
>>855859What do you mean Elite banner 2?Alice is featured here. I got both the featured 4 stars by doing a single 10 summons here.
>>858124*5 single summons
>>857444>Only gacha I know of that doesn't use chibi's is e7.Magicami and sdorica also don't use chibi. There's more if you include ones without global
why do the models look fine in combat but look so atrocious in base?
Really hope this ends up being good. These designs are too good to die
>>858741same, ive been enjoying the cbt but i know the e7 format isnt everyone's cup of tea
>>857444Counter:Side don't use chibis either
>>855795>Hi! I'm one of the SevenSEpic SevenS?
>>859088epic deez nutz in your mouth retard lmaooo
>>859088teufel > rabi
They should have spent their budget on actual artists and animators instead of this chibishit. Too bad they wasted it on english dub.
Looks good
>>853700So why the fuck do they need special voices for global, is it because they are gonna rewrite a whole bunch of shit for the Americans or are they gonna force everyone to listen to a bunch of skanks who clearly smoke 40 packs in a day just because some people don't like subs.
Are the new unit designs as lewd as the originals or has it been self-censored into oblivion like Azur Lane?
Surprised that a lot of these have a decent amount of mecha to them. Yeah there's still a few where they basically slap on metal cat ears and call it a day but the rest look pretty /m/kino, I expected it to be 90% coomwear for a chink gacha
>>861963I only need this to coom
Question for nip anons, if there're any, is this game popular in japan? Like top ten gacha tier or just some fotm with a niche player base? I asked because I love mecha musume but it would be a real shame if the game dies in a year for lack of players
>>862311No. They shafted JP and they got pissed
>>862311it's not doing well but it's not going to die anything soon, bilibili does not have a good reputation in jp, they already had 2 failed games therealthough they did not publish gcg jp, i wonder if nips blamed them for it shutting down
>>862311>is this game popular in japan? Like top ten gacha tier or just some fotm with a niche player base?No. not even niche, its going to die soon or later depend on bilibili do shit
>>861959This is the latest character in JP.
>>862761cunny shit aside, i love this design. i wish this game would just be /m/ instead of half /m/ half naked girls, but i can enjoy it anyway.
>>861798They did a poll on their official discord asking if people wanted an english dub and it was like 200 to 10 against. Hopefully they are rethinking their strategy. It would be awesome if they spent that time and money hiring a real translator because the one they have now is garbage but I have zero faith. These kind of companies give no fucks they are just hoping to milk a few suckers before cashing out. I'll still play and I would love to be surprised but I would eat my left shoe if this game becomes half as popular as epic 7.
>>862971Well this game is going in the bin then, is Epic7 any good I heard this was supposed to be the "improved" version.
>>862971gonna be fucking hilarious to see them try to dub a half-broken translation, good job discordniggers
>>862971Might just play it in moon though. My skills aren't the best but even then it'll be better than some machine translated hackjob.
>>862971>Dubbing a gacha gameJesus that seems like an insane amount of work.Even being on the generous side theres going to be 50 characters
>>863408It's fine, it's a dub so that means they only need 10 VAs to do all of those.Pic also tangentially related.
With CBT ending soon, what are your guys' thoughts?
>>864057worse animation than e7, better qol than e7better tits than e7I like mecha
>>864057never played e7 so i don't give a shit about people talking about it.the game is fun, the girls are cute, i will probable keep playing on a emulator on my pc together with couter side until i decide to drop one of then. right now i think i like this game more.
>>864057Why the fuck are live animations only available in the lobby screen
>>862938> I love this designThis is not ''design'' This is a clusterfucker photo bashed A.I. generator Coomer bait. With a ''show slim white panty'' Algorithm, thrown in.
it's over bros... I'll miss her...
so yeah I'm going to play this only because I hate E7
>>864057Definitely interested enough to play it at launchplayed e7 but that was years ago and I can't remember shit so dunno about comparisonsI also like mecha
I like robot girls but I don't care for mecha musume. What's the ratio here?
>>864502sorry lad, won't find that here. Don't have a picture, but the only 100% robot was some unit used for upgrading
>>864502sorry, this is a cyborg only game
>>864532>>864516Cyborgs like >>858741 are fine, I just don't like mechanical bits as accessories on otherwise normal girls like >>858124
>>864057Positives: e7 but tons of qol improvements, no fags, super sexy.Negatives: Dogshit translation, bilibili trash company have serious doubts they will fix the translation or support the game long term. I hear the game is hell on f2p's as well with shit rates and rewards. I'll try it and hope it works out but I don't have much faith.
>>864538oh yeah in that case there's a surprisingly good number of chars with mecha to them, like I said >>861963doesn't have a wiki apparently, but I did find this https://www.animecharactersdatabase.com/allchars.php?id=108843 which seems to list most of the characters if you want to check it yourself
>>862971you sure about that? Checked their discord and the only message I found was that it was actually a jp vs. eng dub poll and jp won by a longshot
>>864718Bro I think you might be dyslexic, go reread the post.
>>864723>They did a poll on their official discord asking if people wanted an english dub and it was like 200 to 10 against>200 to 10 againstThat means 200 for, compared to 10 against. 10 against wanting an English dub, and 200 for wanting it. This isn't a problem of misreading the post, it's the post presenting the wrong information.
>>864758No you are making an inference that was never stated in the post. The only thing that was mentioned was an english dub. Thus the thing being stated to be against would infer back to the english dub. If it had said english dub or jp dub 200 to 10 against you would be correct. But it didn't say that you just assumed it.
>>864764>if you ignore the context it becomes ambiguous and that means it actually meant the opposite>please ignore that this would mean you can't actually infer it either wayYou fucked up, take it like a man next time.
>>864765You're the only one who was confused here bro. It's ok there is nothing wrong with being ESL.
>>864765bro im ESL and i understand what that post was saying
>>864057Not gonna bother. No point in playing a gacha game that doesn't give out a moderate amount of pulls.
>>864057i'll play it as a side game until the next shiny thing pops up
How generous is this game with the rolls? Like, how long does it take to save until spark?
>>865145someone, i think on reddit, say it takes around 2-3 months to save for a pity.
When will the game come out? I like the designs of some of the girls.
>>864066>>864070>>864082>>864409>>864587>>864809>>865048Sounds like I should still give it a try. I never really played E7 but I do like mecha. And at least there's tits and an FAGirls collab to look forward to.
>>865600The tentative date is 14th of next month but that isn't set in stone.
>>866232The collabs have super OP girls I hear best to save for them. This guy puts out a lot of good videos about it. https://www.youtube.com/c/TimaeuSS
>>866248>Translation is apparently shit>Less than a month until full releaseNo hope.
is cbt still going on?
>>868255no, ended a few days agofull release on the 14th
>>868281sweet
Odds of gl getting shafted by less goodies + accelerated schedule ?
>>870262do you think global will get better treatment than jp, who was already shafted?
>>870269probably notwell rip
>>853700is that character obtainable?
>>870269Rip. I played seven mortal sins, a game where JP was already shafted compared to the TW version. Global came out and guess what? We got shafted even harder. 100% chance the same will happen here.
>>870262100%, also shafted by mtl dogshit translation. This feels like a pump and dump if I have ever seen one. But I hope I am wrong I miss epic seven style turn based combat and I love the character designs. I'm going to try it but I'm not spending a cent until I see some effort on their part.
The play store screenshots already tell me that the English translation is going to be abysmal.
>>878309Fucking tragedy, the godlike art next to the text only makes it worse
>>870269Shafting the nips is an awful thing to do. They can keep any trash alive for years with chinese and japanese bucks.
>>870262100% because its fucking bilibili.JP bili is already dogshit just imagine how bad EN is.I'd dolphin this game but not with that name as dev/publisher, bet the translations still suck like cbt at launch because they are focusing on english song and dubs for whatever reason.
>>872421Playing Mortal Sins, how is global being shafted? If anything we are getting too much content and the game showers you in rolls, I haven't dropped a dime and have almost every character. >>878309Yikes, were the translations in the beta just as bad?
>>879424>were the translations in the beta just as bad?Yeah, for the most part absolutely godawful blatant MTL. Though there were some parts like some unit skill descriptions and some story stuff that seemed properly edited (can't vouch for the actual accuracy) so I'm holding on to vague hope they have someone working on that and the MTL is just a placeholder.
>>872421>where JP was already shafted compared to the TW version.You say that but apparently TW also got their game version deleted and replaced with the JP version with hardly any warning. I don't think you can get shafted harder than that lol
so what really is the 500k pre-register reward?
>>883426rerolling but without the hassle of making new accountsit was in the CBT as well. Limited pool where you can't get more than 1 5* and 1 4* IIRC
hope the game is good and doesnt die fast... im getting bored of Guardian tales and Princess connect. I need a new main phone game, the damn horse gacha game isnt coming westward so im looking for alternatives
Any short, big tiddie redheads? Makes any game an easy sell to me
>>884812>the damn horse gacha game isnt coming westwardo-one day, friendosurely, maybe, hopefully...i too hope this one can catch me for a while and isn't dead after 3 months
got drawn in by these mecha girl designs and the combat animations are nicebut are all girls viable or are low rarity fucked?
>>885594low rare are fked, you want the high end units and Alice to really get going.
>>885600>AliceIs she blonde?
>>885600goddammitwhy do games waste nice designs on unusable characters
>>885605the only game I've ever played that has usable (will be slotted in into your team for end-game content) low-rarity characters is world flopper so expect anything that isn't the highest rarity to just be filler
>>885695Azur lane you can use low rarity on the highest stages and still clear. Not easily, but doable
Preload out. It's going to take a while.
>>885838I swear they do this on purpose so they can bury all the initial bad reviews under the retards who go "wtf the servers are down 1 star"
holy shit aaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
does anyone have weird borders in iOS on predownload ?
I've seen the shill posts elsewhere, so I've come here to get reasons to try this out
Does this game have an auto function or do I need to have macros just to play the same stage over and over again?
>>885858it has an auto bro
>just sent my phone in to get repaired yesterday fuck
>>885858Not only does it have an auto feature but apparently you can customize your units' auto AI to an extent
>>885838How big is the game?
>>853700Who is the qt in the op image?
>>8858784gb so far. Not sure if this includes voices.
>>885841they do it to ease the strain on their servers of a million people downloading at once, and to gauge their playerbase
what's the point of playing an E7 clone if E7 is shit

Any difference between servers? Pacific shows better ping than Europe when I'm from Europe. Shit makes no sense.

>european server has the highest ping>live in central europeWhat kind of bullshit is this?
>>886046It's like a 1 ms difference for me, 12ms to the mutt servers, 13ms to yurop server. I only wonder if it matters for pvp/raids and shit like in Blue Archive.
I think i'll try to reroll for alice + siriusAnyone mathed the odds ? I dont know if i'm mentally prepared to reroll for more than 1 day
>>886046Just select amercia, bwo. It's turn based so it doesn't really matter
Game won't last for more than a few months if they don't increase handouts for premium currency (they won't).

>>886113It only works on bluestacks 32bit, 64 bit will crash after the title scren.
>>885910The gearing is better, which is E7's main issue.
>>886129E7's main issue is not having anything to do other than get dabbed on by whales in PvP even though the game had potential for PvE content and there are hundreds of RGB units that sit around having no niche because they're not good in arena. Artery Gear's gearing is better but still has no PvE content other than that shitty competitive boss time attack mode, whatever it was called. It doesn't have abyss, their abyss is more like the tower in that it's long, trivial and has garbage rewards. It doesn't have labyrinths, events are somehow even worse. And for PvP it doesn't have RTA either so it's a hard sell to anyone that wanted Epic 7 to be more than what it is.
>>886135That's alot of words to say that E7's gearing is shit.
>>886139AG isn't much better, the reason everyone thinks it's amazing is because it's easier (or doable at all) to reach the 15 max speed on every piece and not have to eat shit because you get outsped and cleaved every time. It's still horrible RNG weighted towards giving you garbage and whales will still wreck you by dumping money to farm gear all day. Don't get me wrong, I'm still going to play it and wouldn't touch E7 again but the honeymoon wears off fast, so don't spend money in your first month.
this reminds me of that time bilibili pull a dickmove during CN AG launch by tweaking their video site algorithm to promote AG content more while not showing any of the other popular games' vids (GI, FGO, etc)end up backfiring when one particular vid end up trending and it is absolutely shitting on it, currently the most viewed vid for AG, 2nd place is their own PV

You still get only a few pulls to reroll with so it's going to suck anyway.She's actually decently meta, great farmer for PvE and can cleave pretty hard in PvP so you would have a pretty good time progressing with her.
Does this game have a lot of loli/flatties?Loli/flatties that are meta?How's the gameplay?
>>886276https://www.arterygear.info/characters/alicehttps://www.arterygear.info/characters/timyBiggest PvP cancer team for months.>How's the gameplay?A ripoff of Epic 7 which is a ripoff of Summoners War.
>>886279>A ripoff of Epic 7 which is a ripoff of Summoners War.Never played those.
>>886276>Does this game have a lot of loli/flatties?yes, about 20 out of 100 charsso a decent percentage
>>886281Ok, then, 4 dudes(female) in a square taking turns to shoot skills at the other 4 dudes.
Why should I play this over Counterside? I'm limiting myself to 2 gacha so it's either this or CS.
UUUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH>>886282Decent I guess.>>886283Seems boring, I'll just watch a video of it.>>886287Play this if you like Mecha Musume, I guess?
>>886167thats pretty funny
>>886229>>886237Cat on the left is rubbing his balls

>>886305200 is fine as long as they're not to stingy.
>>886308>as long as they're not to stingyexactly, all the cunny in the world is meaningless if i can't roll them
>Rated Age 12+Great. Epic 7 just got slapped for having picrelated so I wonder how long till this game gets censored too
>>886063The odds are basically zero since you only get 3 singles. Also is someone going to start a /avg/ thread? Might as well live it up for a few weeks.
>>886143I'm just going to play it to collect girls and read the story which I hear is pretty good. Don't give two shits about the rest because I know its crap designed to fuck me.
>>886287Because counterside is a real game ran by people that at least pretend to care and don't shit down your throat for being f2p. It's also not machine translated, has a killer story and soundtrack and also not chibi's. Also the pvp is the only actual fun pvp in all of gacha that I will play even after rewards are dried up. The only thing AG has going for it is lewd art. Now that is a good selling point but it won't carry the game past the honeymoon phase. My suggestion is keep cs as your main game and play this one casually on the side until you get past the boobies and see the reality of the game.
>>886381Wait are you saying Artery Gear is trash? I thought it might be decent and was looking forward to it because of the fact somebody mentioned it in a arknights thread months ago.I've noticed Counterside is also available to me now. Are you saying I should play it instead?
>>886407make your own decisions dude, free games are free and there's plenty of gameplay videos and other resources around
>>886407It's up to you to decide, I like the idea of artery gear but it stinks to high heaven of a quick cash grab. The discord mods pretty much confirmed that most of the mtl isn't going to be fixed. Once people realize how broken some characters are and f2p have no chance of keeping up and there is nothing to do but wyvern and shitty pvp they will bail quickly. I'm going to play it just for the story as long as it stays interesting but there is no way this becomes a core gacha game for me. CS has a lot more going for it and a lot more proven longevity. But neither game is perfect, try them both and decide for yourself.
>>886407Not that anon, they're two VERY different games. I'm playing Counterside right now and will play Artery alongside with Blue Archive and Genshin.Counter side has a nice skip feature which means you can get resources for the day in less than 10 minutes if needed so it slots in nicely for me.
>>886407if you like lots of rolling, then counterside might be better for youthis one is more about patience and praying you get the cunnyfrom what i heard in both threads at least
https://twitter.com/ArterygearEN/status/1535909778001625089that's a nice viewif nothing else this game is great eye candy and I'm down for that, battle animations too
>>886416holy jiggles and nice povmy pp is in danger
>>886407Counterside is more of a niche game and never managed to catch on and become that popular in the west (a SEA version in English was released a year ago but is slowly dying out now) or in Japan. But the global version that just started is published by the developer itself with no middleman so there's hopes it'll be treated decently and won't be shut down early. It does have very high production quality, amazing music and a very strong focus on story and characters, events go all out to expand the setting and present an enjoyable read. But the gameplay really isn't for everyone hence the lack of popularity in spite of its qualities, so you can only try it for yourself.Artery Gear goes with the tried and true turn based formula, but the developer is extremely sketchy and the publisher being Billibilli (known for a ton of bullshit) isn't helping. The game is doing mediocrely in China and pretty bad in Japan partly because they decided to screw the JP release over with anti-consumer bullshit which is now being carried over into global. Also their approach to designing characters is to literally steal them from another game wholesale which doesn't feel very encouraging for its future if the devs can't even be fucked to design some units.
>>886412I really do not care about the cunny at all. I just wanted a game with mecha girls.
>>886265A Vsinger, her name is KAFhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMKrECxEpq8
>>886439well, you certainly get mecha girls here and puppets, lots of puppetsi hope you will enjoy and wish you good luck for your rolls anyway, even if you don't really care
>>886447I just want a secondary game because I already have arknights. Tried Alchemy Stars, PGR and several others but they didn't catch my attention at all.I will most likely try this one and see for myself. I hope there is some gameplay at least.
>>886425how's the daily grind in counterside
>>886499Takes not even 10 minutes thanks to skip, your usual run of the mill dailies for skills/exp/gear. I unironically don't even consider gachas anymore if they don't have skip.
>>886499Both counterside and artery gear are low-maintenance, counterside lets you skip anything you've 3-starred just like blue archive/princess connect, but there are a few things like dives, raids, strategy arena that you have to watch play out. You can get away with 10-20 minutes a day. Artery gear doesn't let you skip but it can repeat boss/stage runs in the background so you just set it to run 30 times and check back on it in a couple of hours.Both games have one of those annoying base management minigames where you have to send your units on expeditions every so often but in neither case it's that important unless you want to really tryhard.
>>886506I'd argue counterside expeditions are extremely important because they straight up give you tickets to pull with in them. The difference in blue tickets between a vigilant/autistic player refreshing every 46 minutes and a lazy fuck that just runs 8 hour expeditions gets pretty big over time.
>>886515>every 46 minuteswell, thanks for your honesty, sounds like a hard pass for me
>>886516That's only if you're extremely autistic. You'll be fine doing the 4 or 8 hour missions (-20% duration with the right upgrades).
>>886517it's a principle thing, I don't play games that have these timed things anymore
>>886518Isn't stamina regen a timed things if you're following that logic?
>>886516It's a super autism thing like corpse dragging in GFL and guild wars in GBF, not something you have to do. You get more summoning tokens for SSR from it but you get tons of those anyway and the gated ones are the awakened summons. It's just if you want to absolutely have every single new SSR or you've gotten into a terribly unlucky back to back pity streak and want to recover a bit.
>>886520I don't play games that don't let me stock up on at least 15 hours of stamina yeahIf I can't play your game at max efficiency by logging in once a day then I'm out basically
>>886525Weird "rule" but you do you anon.
>>886528I've been spoiled by Another Eden and Last Cloudia basically, and E7 hurt my quality of life for far too long for me to want to repeat that cycle.
>>886525>>886528i think it's fair, mobile games should respect that people have jobs and school that take priority
>>8865325-10 minutes twice daily is pretty respectable in my opinion. And most gacha fall under that.
>>886532Some of these things are just obscure things hardcore players that live for the game do. It's like arguing Genshin is a high investment game because you can do artifact runs or spend 2 hours clearing the entire map for a trickle of gold and exp, but in reality nobody does that and it's a 15 minute no content game. You could argue blue archive is high investment because you could spend all 3 hours on a raid day trying to minmax and fish for crits, or princess connect because you could test comps on guild war bosses for 12 hours if you felt like it or camp arena. But all of those are borderline idle minimal investment games otherwise.
>>886533yeah I'm in the twice daily boat too, but some days i'm just too busy for thati've become pretty lazy about expedition like things now also
>>886525I don't know a single game that lets you play at "max efficiency" logging in only once a day. I feel like that can't be a very true statement.
Well now that I have read the thread I will possibly try both CounterSide and Artery Gear and hope one will stick.One question though which one is fairer to the player? I don't mind supporting with monthly passes as long as the gacha is actually fair.
>>886506>Artery gear doesn't let you skip but it can repeat boss/stage runs in the background so you just set it to run 30 times and check back on it in a couple of hours.Oh fuck that, that shit's stupid as hell.
>>886544Counterside by a country mile. Artery gear is giving you three single pulls to reroll. Counterside gives you 160 on top of a ton more just to start out and constantly throws free stuff at you. There is no comparison.
>>886548>Counterside gives you 160Aren't the free rolls over? Or do new players still have it for a while?
>>886549Lasts for another few weeks I think. But the best banner to reroll for ends in 2 days. White rabbit banner yang harim. If you are interested check the counterside general OP it has a reroll guide.
>>886544Counterside is stupidly generous, at least for now.
How long until the servers open up?
>>886563~4 hours.
>>8865635.00am CEST
time to sleep and wake up to mecha cunny in a few hoursgood night agf(g)
Are we really not going to make a general? I would but I don't know what info to put in the OP. Seems like a shame to not at least try. Will be good for some shitposting at least. Guess if no one else does I'll start a barebones one before launch.
>>886572There's that wiki someone made https://www.arterygear.info/ which is fairly complete as far as I can see, don't think we need pastebins to add anything, maybe mention that it doesn't run on 64 bit emus.

game refuses to download on ld player, keeps crashing every minute
>>886583You need a 32 bit instance.
>>886583Try bluestacks 32 bit worked well for me.
>>886584i now have 3 different versions of the same emu on my computer this is stupid
>>886246Is there really no "Wipe data" option? Do I have to use a salted email every time?
>>886572you should only make a vg general after the vmg threads have proven themselves sustainable for a week or twonot beforevmg is just fine and doesn't invite useless posts just for the sake of keeping up with other vg threads
>>886598No the best time for a general is at launch. When no one knows anything and the banter and shitposting flies freely. Once things calm down it either dies and goes back to vmg or it stays comfy.
>>886599>start on vg, all the gacha generals flock to their usual shit, average new posters leave, tattered remnants are discarded to vmg or limp along on vg>start on vmg, average poster is just a visitor, things settle down, dedicated posters graduate to vg or stay on vmgyou just want a new toilet, you don't want sustainable interest and community
>>886606There is no sustainable interest and community because the game is a toilet. The only thing to get from it is a few weeks of fun before people see behind the curtain.
>>886606No idiot, you can't build a community without people, nobody uses vgm the best way to gain attention is in vg, players/posters leaving happens always this is not something you can control
>look for this cutie in the wiki>not there>turns out she's CN/JP only with a different name and looks>realize she has no rarity in her OG profileWhy?Did she die in the prologue or something?
>Note that while you're able to reroll after finishing Story Chapter 1-1, the amount of gacha currency won't allow you to complete a full 10 pull. You need to either further progress through the story to earn more gems, or wait until the game hits milestones such as appstore goals, where the developers will gift you reroll tickets or gems as a celebration.Seriously?Will you guys immediately reroll or wait until we can do 10 rolls a run?>>886425>they decided to screw the JP release over with anti-consumer bullshit which is now being carried over into global.Which is? Being stingy with gacha currency?
>>886642There's really no point in rerolling, it's a stingy Epic Seven clone that you will drop in a week. Rerolling is just a waste of time for a game this mediocre.
>>886642I think they raised the pity and did some other stuff. Anyways I'm just going to give it a shot and see how it goes. If we really don't get any resources to roll I'll just take whatever I get and play the story and probably quit after that.
*cough*don't wait for me bros
>>886640She's not a playable character, she's one of the support summons that gives you a buff (Arky if you played Epic 7).>>886642Increased the pity from 110 to 200, removed all the desirable characters from the "unlimited" reroll, messed with the systems that let you move gear substats around to make it more restrictive (only between items dropped by the same boss instead of any item).
Alright fags here you go enjoy, even if the game crashes and burns at least its got some nice tittys will make for a few weeks of fun.>>388007346>>388007346>>388007346

>>886947The google doc lists the "censored" version of this skin as CN/JP so it might be safe to assume the change went to all versions. Some people in the discord are talking about censored loading screens and a home screen character showing up as censored but no idea if it's a bug, ios thing, or what.>>886967I read pre reg rewards are split into 3 days to fuck with rerollers. Also people are getting banned for reroll with multiple instances.
>>886977>I read pre reg rewards are split into 3 days to fuck with rerollers. Also people are getting banned for reroll with multiple instances.guess i'm skipping straight to the wait for the next shiny new mobage phase
>>886977>Some people in the discord are talking about censored loading screensunfortunately true and we confirmed it with multiple anons
>>886977>The google doc lists the "censored" version of this skin as CN/JP so it might be safe to assume the change went to all versions.This account shows it twice in CN, once uncensored in October, and then censored in Novemberhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xypF5YlGvJ8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyB1TdZGkAEThis Japanese Wiki shows the censored version:https://gamerch.com/arterygear/entry/281303I can't find any videos of the actual JP client though, which would be the only way to say for sure.>>886987This is a definite fuck up though, the idiots even posted the uncensored art on their Twitterhttps://twitter.com/ArterygearEN/status/1535804075777966082
>>886947Anon do you know that skin was only like that in CBT1 2 years ago and it changed forever asked by players? It was an asked change.
>>887090>and it changed forever asked by playersProof?
>2d chibi autobattler with anti reroll mechanicsDead on arrival
>>886987The loading screen might be fucked but the character is fine
so you're telling me they even half-assed the censorship?
>>887107yeah no character was touched, beside the one skin and years of nothing afterthe game is as lewd as it ever was character/cunny wise
>>887090>it changed forever asked by players? It was an asked change.I can smell the live dog frying all the way from china where this post was written.Not once in the history of humanity has a fucking gacha community ASKED to be censored. I would sooner believe that 2+2=368 and the moon is made of cheese.
Based I have them both now. Time to quit the game.
>>887463>Time to quit the game
Do I really really have to reroll? Im just about to start the game up.
>>887511read the end of the general for this on /vg/ and then make your decision if you want to invest any time into this
deleted my acc, this is itmaybe next time we actually get a good mecha gacha game
>>887542it's not that bad, it's just not playable
>>887550they go hand in handi can't fault the art and story, but i am not wasting my time with greed on that level from the devswould be way too frustrating down the line
>>887554>storyAny quality in the story is ruined by the absolute state of the translation. The proofreading team (if it exists) needs to be executed.
>>887158Anon a bunch of shit got censored in CN, it's just that those two things were censored in JP and global is the same as JP.
what are people seething about now?
>>887674everything but the art
>>887677I dunno anon, couldnt care much for the translation cuqliaty but everything else is a slightly less cancerous epic shit, thats already a plus in my book
>>887681Ignorance really is bliss.

this is quinessential chinkshit kusoge
>>887674>Dead game in JP and CN (FUCKING CHINA)>Let's milk Global and be more asshole>Day 1 launch mail = 0 freebies>Pre-reg rewards spread over weeks>Jew packs $45 skip progress 15 mins in>Translation is butchered>Text format is fucked even in skills>CENSORED NEVER BEFORE CENSORED CONTENT, BIG BOOBS GETS HIT, PAID SKIN GETS HIT, LOLI GETS HIT>Pity ceiling is HIGHER THAN CN>IP ban if you reroll too much>NOT EVEN A FUCKING 10 ROLL TO SATISFY GACHA PLAYERS>2.5% rate for the good stuff with FGO 0.7% rates on rateup
Alright, so I got a grasp of the negatives. What are the positives?
>>887788offline grinding
>>887788Joints
>>887788A mecha musume gacha game is pretty rare maybe?Gameplay is okayEveryone has L2D, I think
1-3 Phantom4-6 Michelle7-9 Alice0 don't play the game
>>887789But... can it compare to ALAS?
>>887715>Pre-reg rewards spread over weeks Its actually just 3 days but since JP players was mad about this i thought they don't pull that shit for global>>887800When a good mecha musume gacha finally appears, its handled by fucking bilibili out of all things I can deal with the censors (hope someone makes uncen patch soon) but shit can they get someone that isn't a pajeet who uses deepL for translations?
>>887823Apparently they're using Discordfags as proofreaders, so maybe it will work.
>>887827>Thinking that's a good thing
>>887800i wanted to play for the mecha girls but this shit seems like a cashgrab, i guess Pgr will good be enough for me meanwhile
>>887831I didn't, but at least we might see an improvement over pure, shitty MTL.
>>887834has too many useful QoL features to be a cashgrab desu.Not to mention the monetization being fairly unobtrusive so far.
>>887855not giving a fuck about translation is a huge red flag
>>887872I haven't read a single word outside of skills and even then I ignore most of the ones not near numbers.This shit is basically a worse looking Epic Seven with double the pity but better QoL.Couldn't give an iota of a fuck about whatever mobile "games" pretend a story is nor who any of the half slut half robots on my screen are outside of how big they can make their dmg numbers go.
>>887877Why would anyone play a gacha if not for the characters?
The re-roll in this game is hell. I quit after I got Alice, and will just try for Sirius during her upcoming banner.I am thinking of just going with Ginga, Alice, Morris, and Grace. It sucks I don't have a good green unit, but I guess I will just have to hope I get Roko, until I can pity Sirius
>>887878Coz I got 10 mins to kill on the way to and from work.If I wanted characters to care about I just go read a book or watch a good show/movie.Gacha games aren't made for their gripping plot lines or fleshed out characters, they're made to extract money from wallets via psychological warfare. The less I gotta play in order to make any amount of progress the better, as it reduces my exposure and keeps -more- of my money in my wallet. Eventually it'll manage to extract $5-$20 bucks, but it sure as shit won't be coz I'm emotionally invested in some shitty art's new dress/version.
>>887882Eh, Ginga by herself is fine desu, she'll get you to part 4 of the story, by then you'll have enough for 20 more pulls, hopefully it gets you at least 1 more 5 star, but if not it's not the end of the world.Gear is more important than rarity desu.Obviously some units are gonna be more efficient with less gear but trying to chase after the most optimal setup in a gacha is a fool's gambit.
>>887895I really just like how Sirius looks and her kit seems fun. I don't plan on being a meta slave, but at the same time I would like to have a core team of units I likeWith all the drama around this game I plan to be hard F2P is until I decide if I want to keep playing this game.
>>887901Same, there's better games worth your time down the line.
>>887888Then why would you play gacha games, which are all about the characters, instead of anything else?
Does it matter which server my account is in? My dumbass didn't realize I was logged in to EU.
>>887964game probably won't last long enough for it to matter
Seriously speaking, how long would it take to get a pity in this game?
>>888088f2p I think the estimations are at about 3 months and some change
>realize I won't be able to use the units I like and instead have to chase whatever's the next broken unit in pvp like in all these fucking games because that's the only contentwew, that was a quick uninstall, I'm safe
>>886381Counterside is a shit solved game that's been out too long to be enjoyable. We know what units we need, what ship to use and the deployment sequence in order to win everything including "pvp". There's no enjoyment to be had from the start.
>>888142this game has alots you just cleave you dont have to follow shit for bot arena
5 hours into this game and I have already got the Epic 7 PTSD.Gear with random set, speed based turn base, pvp, too much daily stuffs to do like an endless grind list and day 1 grind event.
10 free roll in the mailodds go back to the reroll mineevens keep playing
>>888245Let's go for Alice and Michele
>>888180but I want to play bruisers
>>886521Checking in every 46 minutes is far more autistic than unite and fight.
odds get Michelleevens get Ginga
>>887888>Gacha games aren't made for their gripping plot lines or fleshed out characters, they're made to extract money from wallets via psychological warfareYou're mostly right about the first part and certainly right about the second. However I would say that there are a few exceptions to the first rule. Most gacha don't try very hard with the story and character development but there are a few exceptions. I have not played every gacha out there but I have played a lot of them and from my personal experience I have found a couple that actually try in those areas.The three best being honkai imapct. This one has the best story and delivery I have seen in any gacha as far as peak highs. Some of it can be jank and too wordy but the good moments are so good that you will hardly even care or remember the bad moments. However it's taken a nosedive in quality since mihoyo began to focus on their other games. And their gacha part of the game is the worst out of any gacha I have played. Blue Archive has the best "casual/slice of life" story telling I have ever seen. The game has found some magical line that straddles some mature themes but somehow never veers off into edge. In fact it plays on those tropes and just when you think things are about to get edgy it subverts your expectations in a good way. It's the best comfy feel good story out there and is delivered in very nice short chunks easily digestible in 5 minute sessions. For someone that says they don't have a lot of time I think this one would work well for you.Last would be Counterside, its presentation is probably the weakest of the three in that it doesn't have many flashy cutscenes like honkai and it plays with the edge sometimes unlike BA. But it is the most well rounded of the three giving you really great high moments, some really sad depressing moments and just enough humor sprinkled in to keep things from becoming arknights.
>>888164Well that's not really true, first off what gacha released to the west isn't "solved"? We almost never have parity and always get a glimpse into the future. And this is a good thing it lets us plan ahead with our spending and not get baited by shitty banners. Do you really want to fly blind having no clue if you are blowing your hard earned pity on some character that will suck in a month?As far as counterside goes you are just outright wrong about pvp. There is no deployment sequence for pvp since everyone is randomized and you never know which characters you will have available. This makes every match unique and where a lot of the strategy and moment to moment decisions come in to play. You have to figure out the best way to use the characters you have in the moment to counter whatever your opponent is playing. I don't think you have given the game much time if you think it is completely solved.
>>888262The pvp meta switches to the bruiser meta just like it did in e7 after a while.
Damn just when I thought I was out those fuckers pull me back in with a free tenner. Sigh, the things I do for a taste of mecha.
>>888448Just wait Front Mission gacha.It looks good and seems faithful to the original gameplay.
Is it normal that I stopped steamrolling after getting to a stage 3?If so, I will need to finally add some healer to my team, I guess.
>>>/vg/388211824join our vg general for questions bros
Why am I seeing so much hype for this game?I'm not trying to "shit on new thing" or whatever but it just looks like Epic Seven with shitty chibi art? I feel like I'm missing something?
>>888740Lack of mechamusume games
>>888747There was Final Gear
W-will the game get better or not? How is the CN version and JP version? D-do the devs really care about their playerbase?
>>888440Honkai cutsceen is good, it allow you a moment to forget the story are either insufferable Lesbian love quarrel or try hard multiverse that require you to play every single game of Mihoyo to ever understands what the heck is going one and then you realized it is still about Kiana wants to munch Mei's carpet.Counterside story is like Korean webtoon, tons of random dialogs and plot points and event and people scheming for the sake of scheming without any actualy payout or conclusion, it give the reader not a single moment of breath just to understand what the fuck is going on because every time there is a conclusion, the write tried to Subvert that ending with a background conspiracy that have never been mentioned before.
>>888837lmao
>>888740extreme fucking cope from people that don't have a game that satisfies them
>>888768Lack of good mechamusume games
Is there any reason to kill the mooks before the boss?
>>889027some bosses have add synergy but killing the boss kills the small guys too
>kill JP GCG before releasing global GCG>kill CN GCG after releasing global AGwhat's next
Amazing pulls
>>889402How many rerolls, bro?
>>889027They can be annoying if you can't kill the boss ASAP.They should die because you bring Grace anyway.
How should I gear up in the early game?
>>890378There's a beginner mission chain that gives you a bunch of mediocre but usable welfare sets. A 3* HP and attack set, probably should ignore them but you can +3 if you're struggling early. A 4* HP, defense, attack set, +6 the HP set and put it on your healer, +6 the attack set and put it on your main dps. The defense set isn't ideal on anyone but you can use it to keep a support like Alice alive. The last sets are a pair of 5* attack sets, at least +6 each of these, they'll cover your 2 damage dealers for centaur. You can go past +6 as needed if you don't have the meta Alice + Ginga setup and are struggling.Basicaly, always aim to complete the newbie missions and get more gear sets.
>>887228Unfortunately the gloval War of the Visions redditors asked and received censored Salire
>>886947This was censored??? SHIT it looked fucking sweet. Is there anything at all on or near its level?
>>886342Fucking sucks. Apple fucking blows. Uninstalled
>>890691I have a friend who plays that, tell me about it so I can rub it in his face.
>>890736It's pretty old news. Back when the game was newer in global. Global players were grossed out when JP's valentines Salire skin came out, because of her legs and cleavage. Her acting childish and not having an explicit age made people say it was wrong. The devs censored her. I ended up quitting then as I felt I was in the minority
>>862761Why did they give her pants...
>>890741Holy shit what a fucking farce, normalfags should be banned from the internet. That's not even very lewd. She's not even a loli design that's clearly at least 16+. And there isn't even any panty showing its just some legs and less cleavage than I see every day outside in the summer. These same cancerous fucks coom over every pedowood movie star dress that is much more revealing. Not to mention any form of modern day swimwear. What a fucking joke, we don't deserve to play gacha games, the east should just IP ban everyone outside of their countries, we have ruined their culture.
>>890773Cracks me up how they kept hyping during beta that the game wasn't censored at all and now we find out more and more of it was. There is no escape from the long nosed shadow.
>>890773woooooooooooooooooooow
Is Artery Gear censored? I keep seeing a bunch of pictures of the girls with exposed skin instead of armor/skinsuits. Shit sucks, and now that loli is wearing fucking jeans?
>>890774I dont even get why the west even try to play weebs games when they will end complaining.
>>890964People get a high off of feeling moral superiority. Idiot business owners don't realize that those are the the minority so they cater to them alienating their true fanbase.
>>890785Shouldn't be. JP gets the two versions of outfits (skimpy and covered) so we should to. Honestly it's smart to sell them both, so they can get money from tards, coomers and collecters.That being said, alot of people whine about a skin that was "censored" from beta. Like it was shown skimpier in the original beta and was "censored" on release, but it's the only version of the skin that's existed on live servers.
>>890785There is literally a skin that has an option that's censored and one that is uncensored that you can buy at the same price.
>>890969>Idiot business owners don't realize that those are the the minoritI blame marketing departments and social media, a unholy mix that ruins everything
>Want to spend $5 for 5* girl>Chinkshit>Bad revenue in homeland and JPYeah yeah it's only 5 dollars but I have no confidence in the longevity of this game especially with all the bigger releases coming up.
>>891107How are young going to explain milvus censored skin then?
Rela is cute & funny
Should I roll either banners or just sit on my shit as a f2p? I see Sirius gets a rate up and then ofc collab eventually.
>>892403If you like x girl, go for it. If not, then save until a girl you like shows up.
>>892403wait for collab
Is it best to play on JP or CN?I never trust global versions to stay alive.
>>892812CN if you understand Chinese, JP has the same fate as global.
already burnt our from the gear grindthis maybe goodbye bwos
>>893260bro your offline farming?
>>892812global and sea has tons of whales
>>854098Quite a number of almost naked Lolis/lolis with underwear showing in this game.
>>890785There's some reverse-censorship in games. For example one of the units, Ginga, is a kitsune wearing a knee length kimono in ads, but in game she's clearly wearing a leotard with all her thigh visible. Lots of scanty clad lolis as well.
>>892403Sirius is on regular banner. Do not blow your loads pulling her. Hold all pulls until the 2 confirmed collab banners and pull then
