OSOI! |
| I tried it, until I looked up and found out the significance of the portrayed ships' historical roles. Then it became too apologistic for me. |
| I just started playing last friday and it's pretty fun (Got in on my 2nd try after properly setting timers unlike what I had done the first time). I've already lost a few maidens due to unawareness (multi tasking) = o='' now the only issue i currently face is dealing with lack of resources (I'm looking at you, fuel!) Thankfully there's always daily quests that at least replenish some of it ^^ |
 |
| Started two or three months back. Still enjoy it quite a bit though not as active as before. Just completing dailies, farming resources for LSC and sometimes grinding to level a ship to Kai Ni. (Allegedly an event is coming up soon in February so Admirals might want to start hoarding resources.) |

| I always viewed it as too much effort. Gotta install proxies due to baka gaijins being blocked from playing, then I gotta look up guides and translations, etc. And even after all that, I never felt interested simply due to the fact that they don't even want us to play. Why should I give them my time then? That's why I only waited for the anime... lol but maybe thats just me. |

| I'll just wait for the PS vita version. I don't want to use proxy just to play this game. |

The reason why they blocked it is because DMM has some conflict with 18+ titles before. (Feminists issues). |

That depend if the server run through DMM or if the game are standalone w/o Internet require/IP check. |

zetsubousei_hero said: You only have to do it one time, after that you can use your direct API link to play with changing your IP. i'm playing it for a long without changing my IP address to a japanese oneToo much work and I don't trust the internet these day when involving IP address. OT: Yes, I play it. |

There are ways to play the game w/o using proxy just like everyone saying on this thread. Start on getting a account now because there's an event coming next month that would probably get you hooked up in the game. :p This, the chrome trick works quite well for me |

I myself use Tunnelbear just to login to the site and get an API link before using Kancolle Viewer. You just have to click, like a single button on Tunnelbear to bypass the region lock. You can turn it off right after getting your API token. |

| Lvl. 72 Teitoku here, been playing since August/Sepember last year. Latest achievements: Upgraded Kirishima and Sendai to Kai Ni Current woes: Goddamn Hiryu won't drop or craft, Always Soryu. Why do people see it as a hassle I don't know, but it's so damn easy, and I'm just using the VPN method. -Install VPN and run the program -Search a Japanese server with good speeds and ping -Try to connect to it -Launch Chrome and just open the Kancolle page If things went well it won't even take a minute. The usual problems for this method is unstable servers. |

The usual problems for this method is unstable servers. the fastest way would be the API method or the cookie method. the cookie method is probably the fastest and safest since once you added the code to chrome's console you can now play kancolle directly without using any more proxy or tools. |

| Thanks everyone, I'll give it a shot. |

| Yes. Current aim is to get my Fubuki to Kai Ni (and get that sweet AA equip) before silly anime Kibufu (her gym clothes name tag). |
| Again, maybe its just me. But to me, its less about the actual game and more about the idea of it all. The fact that we are banned from playing due to being westerners. Afterall, its obvious what the game is based on... WWII. We were enemies, so it would be awkward to open such a game up to us. Also think about it, why else isn't there any allied ships? Because we are the enemies. So yeah... lmao. Plus all the proxy/translation stuff on the side. Adding this all together, I just don't feel like doing it... lol. Now that the anime is here, I'll just enjoy that and all the fanart and stuff. Not saying others shouldn't, people can do whatever they want! This is just my opinion on the matter. ^______________^ |

| yes. meanwhile all these secondaries are giving me ebola |
 Zandatsu (斬奪 - "cut and take") |
| Well I am in Asia though. Apparently my countrymen were brutally treated if not outright murdered in the past on the other hand. But none of that has anything to do with our current lives now yeah? |

Now, if only I got the Herrenrasse ships for my fleet =/ |

| Level 103 “cheesed half of the game with Iona and Takao” admiral here (I never used Haruna even once in a sortie though due to resource costs). I'm Yuubari on GitHub in case it matters. |
| Yes, I'm stupid enough to work for the government. |

This is just my opinion on the matter. ^______________^ Hasn't entered my mind even once, before or while playing the game. And it won't... 'cause it's just a game to me. But hey, each to their own I guess. Also, region lock/lottery are all non-issues if you're 100% interested in starting the game. Using SoftEther VPN for logging in and getting a new API after an update is really, really easy and fast. The lottery can be annoying though if it runs during an awkward time for you, I'll admit. Translation isn't necessary at all thanks to the English wiki and your own memory. There's those "Kancolle Viewer" tools and whatever as well... I personally haven't used any of that though. Well I'm still playing it. 106 HQ on Sukumo Bay Docks. I'm mostly in it for the updates and events at this point though. There's not much else to do for me right now. Though I'm slowly levelling Fubuki a bit further since she's now one of the better DDs in the game with her new remodel. |

Because we are the enemies. So yeah... lmao. Plus all the proxy/translation stuff on the side. You obviously haven't heard of any other Japanese online games. Popular online games such as Love Live! School Idol Festival (Sukufesu or LLSIF), Girlfriend (Kari) (Garufure), etc, are also region-restricted. Do you think they are region-restricted because we are westerners? There must be some other reason why some Japanese online games are region-restricted. Although Sukufesu did get localisation versions in English, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese. If Kadokawa deems it viable to localise the game in other languages, then they will do it... but I am sure I heard that KanColle is being run at a loss. The servers aren't cheap, demand is still pretty high for server spots, and they don't make nearly as enough revenue as some games such as Sukufesu. So it sort of makes sense why the game is region-restricted, from a few of the reasons I mentioned. |
