Compass has had a small update today - main content is the release of the revamped hero challenges which now feature streamlined and improved rewards along with the ability to complete them in co-op. There's also a special event challenge available until the 23rd of February - beating the final stage (I believe the enemies have their deck level at 320) will reward you with a meagre 100BM.

For other news, the Irregular event is back with new costumes for Thomas, Kitsunegasaki, Thorne and Noire. All of them can be encountered and obtained in the event challenge battle.
There will be a news stream this weekend - hopefully we should get some information on First who should be releasing in February.

That's all for now!

>>50593400

All upcoming. Has there even been a 2026 release yet? New kusoge used to come out every week. That's why stuff like Ass lillies can celebrate a 5th anniversary.

Endfield is out now for anyone interested.

Is the game more or less generous than its competitors?

It's so stingy that it makes you pay for other people's purchases

>>50601747
Kek. I saw some of the posts a second ago and immediately regret asking.

>>50601480
Does it have pantsu?

>>50601815
Spats. cuz it's a chink game

>>50601859
Not like nips are any better, gooks are the only ones with enough balls left to put pantsu in their games.

people were getting charged ridiculous amounts of money from other accounts when they linked their paypals. They had to shut down payment through paypal

>>50602121
How did they fuck up such critical function.
Vibe coding?

>>50602394
the ol' database fucky wucky isn't always critical but it always can be

>Players get their money refunded along with the other charges
>First day whales win big

>>50602830
Does that make second day whales big losers?

welp Assault Lily Last Bullet admitted they used generative AI illustration "for reference"

>>50602987

>>50602915
Not every whales use paypal and it happened in a short time frame so you can still be a first day losers.

>>50602830
>First day whales
you really think people are going to keep spending on the game after TWO fuck ups? apple store charging twice and the paypal thing

>>50603182
Nice to know everyone can lose at any time

>>50603245
They won't need to, they spent and got their money back but kept their stuff, if they were even charged in the first place. They already won.

>>50604466
Let me rephrase that little bro, so that your brain can understand. Would you feel safe spending money on the game again, knowing there is a very real risk of your whole credit card credit getting maxed out? Even if it gets refunded, maybe you need it right now and not in 5 business days, because, say, your car or computer broke down and you need those for work. Or your mom got into an accident. But nope, the stupid chink devs maxed out your card.
Would you feel safe spending on the game in the near future?

>>50604540
I'd have like $3k worth of free rolls, I wouldn't need to spend again before I dropped the game. That's what you're not getting. The game is fucked but the ones who got charged basically get to play for actual free and not just f2p.

>>50604580
...
I'm going to use smaller words from now on. My initial question was, would whales continue to spend? Thank you for finally answering, so they won't spend and the game is fucked.

>>50604584
Your question has nothing to do with what I said. Why are you retarded?

>>50603245
People who spend money on a game the moment it releases are absolutely going to keep spending.

>>50604633
Then why the fuck did you reply to me? That literally was my question

>>50604642
Why are you assuming the people that spent were dropping thousands? Maybe they were buying the monthly.

>>50604651
Because the post talks about whales. Also people who just buy the monthly are more likely to keep playing which then increases the chances of them spending.
Also the issue was limited to just one payment method. People might not trust the PayPal option for now but would still use the others.

>>50604680
There were issues with apple pay in CN too. Why would I trust the devs with the other payment methods, when they fucked up more than one? We know it was HG fault, not paypal.

>>50604773
I can't speak for China but from having a quick scan I don't see reports of issues for other payment methods including Apple Pay. If they were present I would expect them to surface pretty quickly so I wouldn't be concerned about using them

So is it doomed then with the botched launch?

>>50606144
I feel like that's the least of their problems. The game simply isn't fun. Like, genshin, hsr, wuwa and others had boring stories but the gameplay was fun enough at first to keep you going until you reach endgame and start wanting to roll for other characters to beat it, which makes you spend on characters, weapons, stamina refreshes, etc.
Endfield is boring as fuck from top to bottom, from the combat, menus, characters, music, story, etc. When you spend money on a real game you get the urge to at least play it a bit to see if it improves in mid game, but with endfield you can just uninstall without regrets.

>>50607841
What do you do in that game anyway? It looks like it's a mess of stuff, is it an open world RPG or do you spend most of the time playing factorio? If the factory management stuff a large or small part and is it time limited in some way? Is it actually like a factory game or does it have random failures or anything dumb?

>>50607915
The factorio stuff is a small portion, and they added blueprints so you can skip it if you want. On the overworld it serves to do some baby tier puzzles for chests. Other than that, you comb the map for chests like any other open world slop, spend 120 hours on the "story", and do the "hold attack until skill button lights up" combat.

It's interesting how its always burgers who hate on gacha game stories, I guess they dont teach how to read anymore in the US

I wish I didn't know how to read so I could skip these 20 hours long chink gatcha jibberjabber quests guilt free.

>>50608200
>Play a story driven game
>WHY IS THERE STORY AAAAAAAAAA WHERE'S MY OPEN SANDBOX WITH NO OBJECTIVES OR REASON TO DO STUFF??
Just download Minecraft

>>50608105
>>50608200
Is this about Endfield? I guess I'll try it now. Though I might not keep up with it if the gacha system is actually like what I've read.

>>50608490
>>50608200 Is not about endfield. It's about the general word inflation of chink gatcha games over the last few years.

>>50608200
>>50608293
People need to understand that a lot of games that use this "story-driven" euphemism actually have the characters speak gibberish for hours.

>>50608981
I wish I could take thesauruses away from China so they stop naming everything insane things. Maybe not even just China but it seems like China in particular really stretches for unusual words to describe simple concepts. I also wish I could make Asia in general get over that asymmetry is a shortcut to cool designs thing.

>>50609018
Because whatever they think as poetic in Chinese, when translated to another language would just turn into gibberish mess.

>>50606144
it's doomed from the moment people found out it doesn't have pantsu

>>50609018
>>50609095
We the Great Chinese people are incapable of "show, don't tell". Our reality is shaped by words after all.

>>50609348
The fuck

>>50609166
I don't get why some Chinese games still have pantsu anyway when others don't.

>>50610625
Well lately that applies to jp games too. Regardless of the age rating, if the game's trying to appeal to the mass it'll have some form of censorship.

>show (pantsu), don't tell

>>50610625
I don't get why some anime still have panty shots anyway when others don't

New Compass Cafe costumes will be added in late March for Thomas, Atari, Delmin and Milipoyu. However, these can only be obtained from actually visiting the cafe

Compass has updated with just some hero balancing today. Miku is on Sunday ready to make use of her conveniently timed buffs.

Jeanne:
>Attack modifier increased from 1.05 to 1.10
>Close range card cooldown reduced by 13%
>AoE card activation speed is 43% faster
>Defence modifier decreased from 0.95 to 0.80
Miku:
>AoE card activation speed is 15% faster
>Hero ability self healing increased from 1.5% to 1.6%
>Hero ability ally healing increased from 7.5% to 8.0%
>Fixed a bug with hit registration on the second normal attack
Rin:
>Close range card activation speed is 20% faster
>Barrage card activation speed is 47% faster
>Long range card activation speed is 9% faster
>Hero ability bonus charge speed increased by 32%
Len:
>AoE card activation speed is 18% faster
>Hero action activation speed is 0.2s faster
>Hero action healing increased from 6% to 7%
>Hero skill movement speed buff increased from 22% to 25%
>Hero skill now buffs Len's defence by 3x
Layer:
>Health modifier increased from 0.85 to 0.90
>Hero skill requires 6% less to charge
>Normal attack range increased by 7%
Ignis:
>Hero skill requires 11% less to charge
>Normal attack range increased by 7%
>Hero action width increased by 14%
Ainz:
>Hero skill requires 10% less to charge
>Hero skill defence buff modifier increased from 3x to 5x
>Hero action minimum charge time reduced by 0.4s
>Hero action maximum charge time reduced by 0.3s
>Hero action maximum distance increased by 4m
PopuPipi:
>Hero skill requires 15% less to charge
>Can no longer be knocked down, up or staggered when using their hero action (with some exceptions)
Richard:
>Attack modifier increased from 1.25 to 1.30
>Hero skill requires 5% less to charge
>Dash attack damage per stage increased by 4%, 3% and 6% respectively
>Defence modifier decreased from 0.90 to 0.70
>Health modifier decreased from 1.15 to 1.05
>Movement speed decreased by 3%
>Long range card activation speed is 10% slower
>Fixed a bug with long range attacks hitting after the visual effects had disappeared
Enkidu:
>Health modifier increased from 0.90 to 1.00
>Normal attack range increased by 1m
>Normal attack hitstop reduced by 17%
>Hero ability defence buff multiplier increased from 2.4x to 2.7x
>Hero action minimum charge time reduced by 0.3s
>Hero action maximum range increased by 8m
>Adjusted camera angles for normal attacks and hero action usage

Extremely questionable choice giving PopuPipi super armour, hopefully that will be reverted before too long.
Richard getting nerfed despite his low winrate is another choice. Any buffs to his dash attacks are just pissing in the wind so in the end he gets a bit more damage and HS charge in exchange for everything else.
The Ignis HA buff is pretty big and should make landing hits much easier. I should play him again as he's very fun.

>>50618308
These Jeanne buffs trying to make her offesive are so random. Just let her be niche. Richard didn't need the changes, low winrate but still arguably fun to play and decent enough to be annoying means he was balanced. I'll always say that I think Enkidu is one those much more incredibly versatile heroes they've made so touching him is risky, give a small buff everywhere and he might be too strong.

>some game called Outrunners is EoS'ing after only three months
Ouch.

>>50618308
I'm a bit curious: apart from Compass, what other games do you play?

>>50618495
Outrankers. Pretty sure we've mentioned it before.

Tfw dead before popular ones like ReZero and KonoSuba are added. I guess there will be an offline version gallery mode at least.

>>50623551
Music from mobile/browser/gatcha/cute character collecting type games. Especially EoS'd ones.

>>50622233
Browser games are cheating because they're essentially PC games. Kancolle was great and I still listen to the home port when I want to feel nostalgic.

With that said, there surprisingly isn't for mobile games pre-genshin era, and even Genshin is technically a PC/console game.

In fact I'd get PTSD from most of them because of all the time wasted on them.

>>50622233

Post-script. They will be part of the "876 Production Fes" next month.

>>50628944
Isn't that an extremely niche one off spinoff?

>>50629656
Yes... But it's still alive. Ai and Eri made not-so-recent appearances, Ryo is at 315 Production (a.k.a. SideM) but still affiliated with 876 and, again, there will be a "876 Production FES" featuring the Dearly Stars trio and the va-liv trio next month. It is still alive, unlike the gook branch...

Bwos is this true? How come their game does that but ours is full of yuri and shipping?

I don't mind yuri, but what I don't like hpw some of them tend to be man haters who hate it when they show up even for just a fraction of a second. As if they want universes where no males exist at all.

And even roll gacha for them

>>50634387
As I thought, you lot are self-hating and not only actively simp for people who despise you for being male, you insist that other males do the same.

>>50634394
I don't think you will ever understand what straight dudes' thought process is like and that is fine

>>50634398
I do understand the thought process of straight dudes who don't automatically assume that men are second- or even third-class citizens with no rights whatsoever. You aren't one of those.

>>50634407
no way fag

>>50634387
>I compete with my own gender
You compete with lesbians too. That's why yuri is bad.

>>50634522
The cute ones are cute to look at, in a mobage.
You would understand had you not been molested by a dude when you were young.

>>50634542
A girl who is not into men is no different from another male. Just admit you like oogling cute boys in dresses.

The issue isn't getting mad at games where you can roll male. It's fine if you prefer your game gachas to be single-sex only. The issue is if you get angry if an NPC male shows up even for a millisecond. It's one thing to not want males to be included in gacha, it's another to want males not to exist in the series' universe at all.

What's with all the dramaposting lately? It's probably a sign people are playing their games less.

the coof definitely didn't help. it was a franchise about idols, live performances were going to be a major part of it

so it was probably mismanagement + investors pulling the plug too early
