All of this willnot come at once. First, it’s unlikely we can make all of these changesat once and consider them of a satisfactory quality. Secondly, we would like toimplement accurate balance fixes, and not repeat our past mistakes.

There are 4 Myokoclass ships planned for ARP in total, the next ARP event for RU Server willcome in April.

Someone complains(again) that it takes 9.999.999 XP from captain rank 18 to rank 19. This wasmade because the devs have yet to enter the next stage of captain development.0 C" s  U' V  g6 _' y

I hope they dont buff RU tier 9 and 10... Only the 8 really needs to be looked at.

 

Introduce radar, buff ru dd! Loooool

Don't worry, talk is they're adding another 4km of range onto their shorter torpedoes, so you'll get your wish—T9 and 10 probably won't change.

[Zampy]

Next stage of captain skills is intriguing

[Pendragon1951]

ok is it a bug and they are not showing or did I read the part about the bogie having AA guns wrong, "AA on ships likethe Bogatyr is based on game balancing purpose"  because I don't see any AA guns on the bogie?

Whoops, accidental +1. Anyways, you're correct that the in-game Bogatyr does not have any AAA. It seems that historically they did carry some 37mm and 47mm AAA though.

[A_Sitting_Duck]

Buff the Ishizuchi!

It's harder to start baseless rumours around here than it used to be.

April Fool's weekend, so it's understandable

(Or people are getting smarter)

[Skraeling]

Im expecting them to try and force them into gunboat stuff... oh joy.  Probably nerfing the crap out of torpedo range.  Looks like ill have to go get a gearing for stealth torping I guess.

 

Oh well was fun while it lasted.
