Reading that tweet again, I believe your interpretation is far more likely to be correct.

I saw that at the Bahamut forums so strictly speaking it's not mine =3

And map layouts:

If I'm not wrong, clockwise from upper left, we have E4, 1, 2, 3 and 5. And I understand we have Saratoga's wreck as the last boss

Apparently my Viewer broke... API changes again? It won't show me the translated Fleet UI anymorejust information and Settings... :/

Edit: So which CA got the KaiNi now?

Uhh, perhaps because it is historical? Please stop reading everything you encounter as sign of Enterprise.

Her design kinda reminds me on Mutsu too btw - same artist?

Yoshinori.

I seriously couldn't find any picture with her E funnel and I was looking for like 15 mins.

1) Go to Google.com
2) Search for "USS Saratoga funnel"
3) Click on images
4) Look at the second picture from the left in the second row (or the third picture in the third row)

Voila. 30 seconds.

[AC-Phoenix]

Makes me wonder what I looked for the first 4 times >< - now I finally found one with the E on it (In comparison to before where I found some with the same color scheme but without the E) or I just need new glasses
But yeah E for Exhaust makes sense.


---
Other than that - the wait for Yuubari's API fix has started the Viewer apparently can't recognize Kancoplle properly resulting in me not finding my transport fleet.(Especially their drums)

[LoweGear]

The "E" on Saratoga is apparently an "Excellence in Engineering" badge, which is granted during fleet exercises.

Refer to this article for the full story behind the "E".

Ships that win a battle effectiveness competition are authorized to paint a white "E" with black shadowing on their stacks or elsewhere to display evidence of the honor.

And Saratoga apparently won Excellence in Engineering.

[Kakurin]

Well yeah, that is... not good. French horrible as expected but even the Japanese sounds strange.

Not gonna start event yet untill I know all the drop and on what difficulty it drop I dont want to repeat that mistake on the last event XD damn farming Prinz in easy last event was terrible

Hatsuzuki drop in e-1 ok 1 down now I know where to search XD

[AC-Phoenix]

I am more worried whether I should attempt this on Hard with just 124k bauxite... Really depends on what the final reward is for me - if there is a plane that can only be gotten on Hard like the Hellcat i'll probably have to got hard
Which brings up the problem of which ships to save for E5 sicne hard has a separate lock.

First I need to have my Viewer working properly though...

[Strigon 13]

As always I'll wait for the frontliners to figure things out before throwing my girls into hell. So far the only thing I know is that E-1 requires at least 30 LoS (on hard), dunno if it's lower for easy/normal.

Also, ducks (so far Aki and Hatsu) are confirmed drops on E-1 boss node easy.

*tries to start up KC in KCV so he can set expeditions*

*Game is stuck on that black loading screen with the floating ship*



Anyone got insights into what might be wrong?

People have been reporting problems with viewers after the update. Also, the server itself is quite unstable (I've gotten catbombed twice in the last 10 minutes).

If you are stuck with the floating ship its your connection to the server.
What will likely stop you from using it though(if you are using the english version that is) is that the latest english version is 4.7.1 doesn't recognize Kancolle as being started and won't show you any other UID than the Vanilla games. (i.e no equip, ship lists and so on)

[Azurial]

Never got catbomb on a phone tho it run just fine.

So I may have to use an earlier version to play?

[AC-Phoenix]

ok google I'm gonna bite...
how does the cookie thing work with Kancolle Command Center Kai? Do I have to write the cookie separately or will the add in do that for me like it does with KCV?

Edit: Nope the APi changed. You can still play, although nothing will be translated. the viewer will just tell you 'Waiting for Kancolle to start' the entire time - the gam ewindow itself works though.

So what are my other alternatives for this anyhow?

Kancolle Command center Kai - Which I am currently installing. No idea if you got to write the cookie for that yourself though (see my question above);
Thats a chrome plugin though which makes me feel a bit uncorfortable as chrome is the second most spyware only topped by windows 10.

Not sure if the subtitles are allowed though...as I remember that one of the tools was straight out forbidden.

Edit: Ok to all Káncolle command center kai users... is it normal that I can login without activating the 'force cookie hack' option?
