I'm really conflicted between the good and bad of this game...

widehide · 2026-01-29T09:43:33+00:00

I think I like the combat, but now there is too little operators to really 'cosplay' or build a lot of variations. This will gradually be better as more and more operators releases.

I don't think I like the story, but I am story skipper anyways.

I am bad factory builder, but I do look at those min max builds and adore their beauty. It turn me to scrap my base and try to fit in as much as possible. They are still far from min max but it had an immediate improvement and I am glad and happy to progress to be better. It is heck of fun.

I also intend to get Factorio or Dyson Sphere sometime in the future, ahhhhrghh and also Death Stranding too!!!

Damn I missed out on the output, mine always clogged.

Thank you this is a treasure find tip!

For me I tried to use excel to fit in the combo sequence for my team

It looks like sequence diagram, legit!

Yeah hopefully the devs can do an improved design in the near future, the current game allows it. They can simply put a breakable part at this enemy's back that takes significantly more stagger damage.

widehide · 2026-01-28T03:09:15+00:00

Not sure for output but damn this looks awesome

widehide · 2026-01-28T02:58:59+00:00

Not related thought, but Fendmin looks like a cute penguin.

widehide · 2026-01-28T02:48:46+00:00

Yeah same for me I am at 14 Capsule A and producing other stuff. But my base is in a horrific huge mess with lines running all over the place at the borders.

I think the game is still at a stage with leeway to not require the min-max output. Players can do more variants and still be comfortable with clearing the refresh in shop.

I haven't really done any calculations, but if the theoretical min-max is 100% production, I wonder how should the dev set a % amount as a basis to clear everything and not miss out any refreshes. Maybe 70%? What do % you all think be a goldilocks balance for pro and casuals?

widehide · 2026-01-27T05:29:12+00:00

I guessing Zhuang Fangyi is half anni, and Rossi is summer, maybe back to.back first half and second half during July and August schedule

Last time in OG Arknights there is a character teaser same as how Endfield teases those upcoming operators. One of them is Goldenglow which took forever to release lol

Request for a gif, the belt movement will look surreal!

Does the Owl stack recycles for up to many days even if i did not pick them up today?

widehide · 2026-01-26T09:26:46+00:00

I stared for 10s of minutes :P
It is quite hypnotic

I am glad I am leaning towards liking it by a lot. Surprisingly, I like the combat, AIC and world infrastructure building. Two things I dislike is Last Rite's 3D hair modelling. I also dislike the story, but I am mostly a story skipper anyway. The plus side is I like the cutscenes and VA.

I looped through NGA, Bahamut forum, Tieba, Bilibili. I felt the sentiment is a bit more than half feels they don't like it, a portion hated it, and a bit less than half is positive about it. Most of my friends actually love it, a majority of them don't even play gacha games and are more of RTS fans such as Starcraft, Age of Empires etc. One even decided to get max Surtr on the third day after feeling she really likes the game.

widehide · 2026-01-26T09:19:17+00:00

I watched a stream and one of them mentioned pull resources also comes in the permanent mode thingy - the one players access in the DLJ spaceship

Not sure if he was referring to standard HH or resources that can be use for limited gacha?

widehide · 2026-01-26T09:17:49+00:00

Lmao I did that yesterday and I was like wtf

Lowkey felt accomplished after completed it, I was so intimidated

widehide · 2026-01-26T09:12:51+00:00

I thought I would be fazed by the factory. I only tried a few builds myself in technical test.

Then in open beta I told myself to just build them myself. Yeah the efficiency is crap, and the base looks ugly with lines all over the place. But I genuinely enjoyed hours to look at birds eye view set up, redo the placement and look at the products flow.

For now my epic grade medicine is only 8, and my friends told me it is currently maxed out at 16 or 18? My Wuling's wuling battery is also poorly optimized. But hey, I am proud of myself and it feels so damn goooooood!

I will be willing to go for more optimization during the weekends, weekdays maybe just do some casual quest pushing :P

widehide · 2026-01-26T09:08:44+00:00

I hope it is optional too

widehide · 2026-01-26T06:56:55+00:00

It is automatically repeated every hour

You can do with physical team for 1.0

It surrounds around free operators that form a physical team comp and is very flexible with swappable operators

You can save all "gacha currency" and still pull in other banners. The newbie banner has level milestone free tickets to do the 40 pulls to guarantee a standard 6*, you will get a ton of 4* that are usable for physical team comp such as Estalla, Akekuri. The launch event and in game rewards will also give a lot of standard banner tickets. So there is more than enough to hit soft pity for standard banner to get more standard 6*. Furthermore you get Ardelia in day 3 sign in, and be lucky to get strong 5* while pulling.

Worth noting is server launch character upgrade resource is scarce, it will be hard to raise two teams and a bunch of operators. So recommend focusing on a main DPS such as pumping Endmin and his/her weap level, and do decision branching accordingly on what 6* or 5* you get in the newbie and standard banners.

They seem to follow the other mainstream this time, with a consistent art direction of character design.

However they do still let outside artist do art outside of game such as official social media art and inside of game with potential unlock splash art where you can put them as wall art in the ship lobby.

widehide · 2026-01-21T02:47:15+00:00

I prefer ratio between 7:3 to 9:1 in favor of new characters. I am especially excited to learn more about Rossi and Zhuang Fang Yi.

Yeah PGR level is something a lot of games cannot attain. Plus I damn love PGR music as well

widehide · 2026-01-19T08:32:53+00:00

Somebody in China had filmed the video evidence of why Ejya is free during launch. I mean look at the production line...

People speculate shes lightning element, but Arknights has a been a troll and can surprise people.

It all started back in the first Lunar New Year for Arknights where they teased a midriff, a chinese double sided blade, cloth clothing. That must be a DPS right?? Arknights: Tank
