Azur Lane 12+

Okay, so, Azur Lane is a good game, can’t deny that, only problem is, I started playing it in the middle of December last year, why is this a problem? Well because I have missed out on events that limit my ability to retrofit ships. What is a solution my might ask? Well making it so that you get the material you need to retrofit ships like Warspite and San Diego by a secretary story line, Warspite has one and I think getting Warspite to level 100 deserves letting players retrofit her, that or re-run events every so often so that new players have a chance to gain new things and bridge the gap between veteran players, because that is what is going to keep the game active, new players, and I understand you have new events to keep the game interesting, but you can have the old events as side events alongside or even in between major events. I personally think that doing this would add more playability to the game, but aside from that, I like the game and my Laffey is over powered.

I downloaded this game back in 2013 and have been fairly content with it since, the art is good, music is nice and overall it’s a good relaxing game. HOWEVER... the game is not free of problems and downsides:

1: prone to crashing after combat is finished or it has to load something with more than five colours.

2: lagging from struggling to process screen effects (explosions and shells hitting the water, etc) I assume this might be due to me using an iPhone 6.

3: back in 2013 players could see the hints to access the hidden mission im-paw-ssible by going to the depot or other screens, since the ui change in the past two years those hints/paws disappeared and it seems players can no longer obtain Akashi if they haven’t done so already.

4: images in the gallery will sometimes appear blank and be replaced by a white screen instead or be replaced by the previous image.

5: this final point is something common to most games like this, the main screen is jam packed with buttons that clog up the screen to a degree, i get that players aren’t usually sitting around on the main screen but still, any chance it could get toned down a small bit so players aren’t swamped with buttons.

Apart from those points I’ve got no problems with the game.

Fair winds and calm seas.

Before you read any further, I must admit, I'm astounded by the performance of the development team of this game.

(Update) Don't know how I never realised this but, this game has 0 ads! No interruption of gameplay. This game is clearly made not for monetary reasons.

I'm definitely not a veteran of this game. To put it simply, I got it two days ago, however, I am impressed by the professional responses from the developers. As of a recent "Hotfix" update, the game had a bug that rendered it unplayable as you couldn't select any options on a game map. Although the update had been released an hour or two ago, the developers had already acknowledged it and had begun fixing the bug. By nightfall of the same day, the bug had already been dealt with. I don't typically write positive reviews, as I find a lack of connection between the community and the developers in most other mobile games, but this game has impressed me with how efficient and quick they deal with issues. The developers clearly care for the community and have shown that their constant attention is with us.

I would highly recommend this game for those seeking a game which the developers care about the voice of the community.
