oh crap.. campaigning with IJN from 1890.. currently 1920, and with the new 1.4 update the save files wont work right?

Is this the last reset? I always get to 1925-1935 in the campaign and then a update resets everything. Will I have enough time to beat the game before my saves are all removed?

Deleted my 1890-1934 IJN campaign. Been running that for 3 months. Thanks, ya twits.

I feel absolutely devastated right now. I personally don't have too much time to play but for the past 6 weeks I was having great fun in my German campaign started 1890 all the way until 1937, only to come home today and about to relax with some gaming then realize all my saved files GONE just because of the update. In the past I have recommended this game to 2 other friends but from now on I would not do so anymore.

Same here for me. This game has become an absoulte four letter word show. Why delete my save game? Why not give me the option to revert back to an older version of the game. I just have tried to start a campaign, it crashed. Thanks a bunch.

But then in a custom battle, ships still going 100+ knots when getting in formation. But I sure am glad that we got those new hulls.... This has been the most atrocious early access experience and 1.4 just takes the cake. Development dragging on for years, and yet bugs not being fixed for ages.

Feedback?
This was not ready for relase. If you delete my savefiles on my pc and make me start all over again after hours of my time, you'd better make a damn good update. This wasn't it, chief.

Having not played the game in nearly 3 weeks, I've very much looked forward to this update. Since the developers provided clear and timely warning about save files at that time, I emptied all my campaign save slots and patiently waited. This morning, my patience was rewarded and the update arrived.

0425 Hrs - I Clicked "New Campaign" and entered details (US, Normal, 1900, Random, Off)
0426 Hrs - Clicked "Start" and the campaign began generating
0432 Hrs - Generator completed

A 6 minute 1900 campaign generation is about 20 - 30% faster than 1.3.9...a nice improvement. I have not yet built my fleet, but just taking a look around the map, I think I see a couple minor changes that I like. However, it has been 3 weeks, so I could be wrong.

More feedback to follow once I get back into playing...THANK YOU!!!

Please make one last update in the future: add quad turret visuals for all nations. There are plenty of blueprints for every nation. As currently the quad turrets look awful (except French ones)

The slider for "Armor Quality in Penetration data" doesn't go low enough. Whilst the slider goes as low as 0%, Iron Plate armour actually has a -25% modifier.

After Starfield SSD issue, I believe that you should install it on SSD drive. I move mine to an SSD and the game is super smooth now. Campaign generation took 5 minutes tho.

Load screen, save file open from 30-40s reduce to 5-10s.

Campaign generation is a lot slower now then the previous (beta version). Now 1.4 German 1900 historical campaign: 9 min 14 s. Previous version, same setup: 4 min 29 s. Kind of disappointed, to put it mildly.

Edit: Also, a noticeable increase in lag in the ship builder.

Even the auto building for the ennemies in naval academy missions seem way longer.

New campaign (hard, 1890), immediate observations.

1. Start time is really really slow. I could almost have a meal in the time the game generated turn 0.

2. Virtually all the AI have financial trouble from the get go, with wanting about admirals getting fired soon.

3. Economy is still as broken as before. I'm not making another long post about this, but it seems nothing has changed.

Are the naval academy missions all locked again?

I have had issues with the German Modern Cruiser 1 Hull and 8 inch gun turrets. They continuously get jammed in battle. The barbettes for the forward and rear turret seem to be the main culprit.

I also had issues with case-mates on the German Battlecruiser V hull getting stuck and not firing.
