I got sexually assaulted by a boat💔🥀
That’s it
Over 30 gigabytes is to much
I love this game so much and I’m hopelessly addicted, but this isn’t getting 5 stars until they figure out how to bring its size down. Even if that means allowing players to opt out of the 3D date and island planner to cut down storage.

This game is trash
There are tons of bugs, and a large number of UI issues have remained unfixed for a long time (including paid skins not displaying properly on the main interface). The game is getting increasingly sloppy. Both paid skins and collaboration skins have major art flaws that are never fixed - such as distorted proportions, missing shoulder details, weird perspective distortion, unnatural limb angles, and more.
Fan Service Problem/Cash Grab/Perverts
This game has disgusting fan service and it strips away of the game and the purpose of gaming. It’s just another cash grab of inappropriate looking characters drawn to make people look at them for money. It’s just predatory, especially with how every character is designed this game just looks wrong. It isn’t going to make it at all, it’ll only draw the wrong crowd and give the game a bad rep. I hope this game gets taken down it’s wrong in so many aspects never playing this game ever again there’s a lot of perverts in the game too, I don’t like it. Waste of money and time I’d rather play Memento Mori it’s better and less provocative. Fan Service is getting old and played out.
Good Idea, horrible execution.
The idea of a game like this is interesting, battleships as human girls. (I’m pretty sure most battleships are referred to as hers anyways) and of course being a game full of girls you expect a some sexual stuff but not 70%-90% of the whole game.
On top of that this is not a game for people who are a big fan of battleships because a majority of the more important ones are missing USS Missouri being my personal favorite and completely absent from the game, (as are Iowa and Wisconsin) and there were some other notable names absent too.

Too Time Intensive
I want to like this game. I really do. I even understand the gate keeping to a certain degree. Keeping the tourists out to preserve the game, I can dig it. But goodness gracious. I bought the Commander Boost pack to take me to Commander Level 70. Been farming every single day for over 8 hours a day. Since November. Have not even cracked Commander Level 71 yet. So what do I have to do? Keep the app open and farming for double-digit hours a day, everyday for two years to get to Commander Level 71? It’s too much. My wallet is ready, but they apparently don’t want my money. My wallet will remain firmly shut until I get to Commander Level 80. IF I EVER get there.
Terrible customer support
Been playing this game since it first came out (7 years) and have never had any issues. Yesterday, for the first time ever, I needed customer support. I miss clicked and bought a skin I didn’t want at the store so I put in a ticket. Customer support literally won’t do anything about it. Good game, just know that if you ever need any help to fix anything, they won’t do anything about it.
Broken iOS 26.1 iPhone 17 Pro Max
Fails hash check. Deleted and reinstalling did not fix the issue.
Too much sexualized children
Characters that are meant to look like kids are sexualized and that really turns me off from the game.
The game system is terrible
Loading the game spending a lot of time and after that there isn’t any respond even several minutes later,besides some times error message pop up
Used to be a good game
I got a new iPad in 2024 for 350 dollars. You are telling me a 2024 device can’t run a mobile game from 2017?!.? Yo star needs together a clue what market they are in. This is a mobile game!! Not a game console / pc game. There is no reason a 2024 hardware for 350 dollars crashes on this game saying specs are not good enough.how about sending me a 1k iPad if you are going to make the specs unreasonable?
Update, game should be labeled a PC game this point , it crashes too much on any reasonable current device.

Can not login
My apple IP can not login，could anyone tell me why and what to do？
Lost account
I love this game. I loved it so much that I poured hundreds of hours and hundreds of dollars into it. However it’s a big game that takes up a lot of space. So I took a long break from it and deleted from my phone thinking with all the links I can just get it back right? Wrong. My account is gone along with all the ultra rare, and event ships I’ve bought and worked for, and I’ve tried every way I know how to recover it, but it seems like it was all just a huge waste of money and time. I don’t know what to do now, and to say I’m heart broken is an understatement. This game is great and well made but I don’t know if I can recover from this and have the heart to restart.
Customer support is trash
I got burned out playing the game, stopped playing for a year and during that time I had bought a new phone. Unofrtunately for some reason my account didn’t carry over to my new phone. I had tried contacting support, but instrad of trying to help me figure things out and get my account back, they sent me a very rude and caps lock ridden email telling me they wasn’t going to help… Also, the person who emailed me doesn’t know much about the game so that is another thing
Boring, stale, and cheap
There is nothing great about this game. Mechanics are weak, graphics are poor, gameplay is stale.
Lost account fix failed fix recovery
3 stars
Unable to play
Genuinely wish I could play on the iPad mini 2. The game looks fun and all but can’t play
The game changed and not worth playing
Events reruns are too short for how long it takes for one to happen. The rates in the ship building is overrun with lots of ships new ships adding into the pool which makes even getting elites ships hard to obtain. Last straw was the operation valentines which is the worst event i ever experienced in a game. Then the 1-2 weeks every month of no events just makes the game more unappealing with one week reruns. Reruns were better before
3 years and no gold QOL
lv140 player that quit over how much damn time this game takes 3 years ago. Returned and went on vacation. The pathetic passive gold gain can’t even keep up research. I only have time to logon twice a day and it’s keeping me awake to run some 13-4 to grind gold to continue research. who even have time for OPSI. ran three times 13-4 with double rewards book and research ate all the gold again and I couldn’t even queue up 6 research. Also the art style man…. Even DOAXVV only has 1 girl with boobs that looks like cows. Here half the new skins are. just go play some epik seven if you hate yourself. Or play a mmo instead if you have time to kill. Disclaimer I hate E7 and do not play it.
Good with a side of pedo
The show/game is based on 10-18 year old girls. So why push sexuality and marriage on the kid? I think most players don’t even know this… I played for naval history and ship(names, facts). I have quit as this has turned into a pedo farm. Meaning age restrictions should be enforced, and I’m sure FBI watchdogs are watching.
Boring
This game plays itself. Everything incentivizes you to log in frequently to redeploy for more items, but there is nothing to actually do when you’re playing. Everyone talks about fan service, but most of the ships are static pictures of little girls with no animation, so I really didn’t understand that angle. Plus it’s almost 30GB when all the extra content is installed. Playing isn’t enjoyable for me and it’s not worth the memory storage.
STOP BLOATING THE GAME
The crashing has been quite a hindrance, Also PC PORT WHEN??????????
No gameplay.
There is literally no gameplay here. The only draw to the game is the paid skins. Don’t get me wrong, they are EXTREMELY high quality, but there is literally nothing else in the game. They don’t even have that many good minigames that other Gacha Games do.
Constantly Crashing
I’ve been playing this game for years I started on my phone then started playing on my iPad. I deleted my phone account because it was taking to much space plus if my phone wasn’t on Wi-Fi the game would be really slow and glitchie.
The problem now is I can’t complete a battle without having to reload the app at least twice I don’t even bother with the events anymore.
