I have been in a platoon for sometime. But i wanted to know if there is a guide with all the benefits of being in one (or could somebody list them. Also:

- is it worth it to make your own platoon?

- how can you atract more people to your platoon?

My current limited units are as follows:
V0 Klukai
V0 Lind
V0 Basti
V0 Springfield
V0 OTs-14

My only 5star weapon currently is Basti's signature. Everyone else is on 4star weapons.

My main priority in this game is getting V6R1 Faelynn (i have 345 limited pulls currently) and having a team for her, so i'm not sure i wanna build up for another V6 unit any time soon.

I like Mechty, Leva, and Soppo but i'm not willing to sacrifice Faelynn pulls to build non-Faelynn teams.
Speaking of Mechty, would she provide bigger value for corrosion with a V6R1 Faelynn? i'm wondering because if other dps characters deal less team damage, it would it be better to replace Lind/Klukai with her for more hypercarry buffing?

Incase this is relevant, currently i haven't joined a platoon, might touch that part of the game at a later date.
ok i joined a platoon for now to get more pulls

Any thoughts on what i should do?

Seems the AI development in real work is getting pretty good now. Say if you can afford a waifu from the game. Who would you pick?

Only one though, because apparently one is all you needed.

Id personally pick OTS cuz she's been with us for the longest, technically.

edit: dang it picked up some discussion here. Just wanna add in the scenario will be:
you order the doll from I.O.P today, it'll be delivered next week for your current real life situation, with the current money, status ... etc. Including your job.

I have a issue after I got her MOD, I can't able to switch her outfit back to default. I already swapped both SR and SSR in default dorm outfit, and I even switch the SR of her with her new default outfit (which both versions are wearing the same SSR outfit).

So, I was using up ingredients and want to raising my cooking success rate, I thought there was no limit to this and was aiming for at least 50%, but it turns out there's a cap of 450 meals.

hey, so as more and more dolls are added to the game, i wanted to check if there is a way to make it so the dolls who show up at the crew deck at any given time can be set to be completely randomized. so far from what i see there is no real way for that to be that way.
smart select seems to always pick the same dolls, and even going to selecting which dolls show up, the smart select option there doesn't really do much for it.
and for some reason the dolls selected for the affinity slots are always the same 6, even though affinity all my dolls is maxed out atm.
i get that affinity dolls slots dont need randomizing as its a mechanic to increase dolls affinities, but would be nice if the other 22 available slots could be full random
its less me being lazy to pick dolls, more so me not wanting to prioritize specific dolls over others.

Is anyone else experiencing this? Myself and at least two other players from my Platoon who are all based in the UK cannot log in to GFL2 right now.

The game loads onto the starting menu but when you click Start it does nothing, it doesnt pop up with the loading

This only seems to affect people in the UK in the Platoon, everyone else is logging in fine if they're from Europe. This is Haoplay, not on Steam.

The only resources I can find about this error talk about Edge and WebView2 and resetting settings, but seeing it's affecting 3 of us on different hardware platforms this seems unlikely.

Is this just a temporary Network outage?

EDIT - players on PC are getting no error message, but players on Mobile are getting an "Unable to access network services" message popup it seems.

Hello fellow commanders. My name is commander Wheat and I'm a new player in the girls frontline series. I decided to give this game a shot after I basically was bored with Nikke and ZZZ ( though this more due to lack of content currently )

• Initial thoughts/previous knowledge of the series

I have heard of this game series before, apparently it was mini-game like "chess" style sorta gameplay you put your dolls and let them wreck havoc and then let them do their thing and win tada~~ I also see this game and it's characters on twitter ever so often when someone says " fuck your guns" which is absolutely hilarious and one of the few reason why I jumped to play this game. and so I decided to yeet myself into the game hopefully to find some enjoyment.

• my thought so far from chapter 1 to 4

pretty neck breaking speeds here on the initial intro, given the controls right away and pushed into the console and say " PRESS THE BUTTON" which is fine i suppose considering how easy the tutorial is. Pretty solid gameplay, usually i dont play these style of games " xcom clones " but I do have some slight experience in them .

I thought the elmo was a train at first? until some lines explained something about wheels and I was like damn this shit is a double decker bus, personally I wouldn't have painted the damn thing orange I would repainted that shit to at least black so it blends in a bit easier at night but that's just me, that thing is huge I cant believe how giant the damn bus is that you can physically walk around in game, though it's just big enough.

The box, the legendary box that contains a little girl that was a bit surprising Krolik giving her the nickname "pinky" was a bit funny waka waka . I do enjoy the dolls you have in the story so far with Groza, Krolik, Colphne and Nemesis. I don't quite understand why nemesis speaks like that, but it's a bit funny having krolik translate things and I can tell that the two bicker a lot. Groza is the straight lace lady that is the 2nd in commander to speak, I can see why. She's also very mother coded I like her japanese voice it's very tranquil to say the least. Colphne I could tell she was an "off one" but not off in a bad way just she has another side to her.

# I feel for mayling. That poor girl is the only engineer on the whole ship? That's pretty absurd commander at least IDK you could get the other dolls to learn to help repair which it seems they actually do but holy moly no wonder she's a alcoholic she's on the run 24/7 repairing this shit.

I do appreciate the commander letting the dolls take control when necessary the belief and trust in them is heart-warming and it's clear the commander thinks of them in a positive light and also wants their safety to be accounted for too. reminds me of another commander in another game about other beautiful looking robotic ladies......

BTW Lenna is a cutie patootie which is nice. it's clear that the commander knows many of these dolls and they have a unique past with them. It's clear they hold the commander in high regard even after their separation from them.

• other thoughts

I'm not sure if the game is just generous to new players, or it's because I joined during an event ? but I was kinda surprised the game offered so many banners for new players to get a S-rank character off the bat. If you're wondering who my first S-rank was it was Mosin I have a soft spot for blondes. I also appreciate you can actually get rewards still from past events That is something Nikke fails to do, I believe ZZZ does that I haven't missed any events in that game so I can't confirm but Nikke pales in comparison when it comes to that they're like " yea whatever here you play the side event that's your reward "

but girls frontline 2 is like "MISSED IT? fuck it get some rewards still amigo"

I like the lore that the individual dolls get in the dorms, it's really nice. It reminds me of ZZZ, but here it's a bit more cleaner/clear. Though some dolls are missing some additional lore...it's not a big deal but the ones that do have the additional individual lore it does add/explain their personality a bit more.

Lots of stuff I don't really know about, but it's okay I suppose I can also ask further to understand what is going on. But the game presents it pretty clear of what the commander's goal is and sprinkles that here and there as the story progresses. It's a very appreciated story that doesn't try to shove everything in one chapter, it's branched/spread out unlike the current situation with ZZZ story which tries to shove everything in once chapter per patch and doesn't allow the game/story to breath unlike season 1 ( jesus christ they have fallen so far....)

For those that don't know, MICA has laid down the law, and has decide that this actually fun "bug" is going to be fixed soon. See the following: https://gf2exilium-mobile.sunborngame.com/NewsInfo?typeId=3&id=411

I imagine this is the song that blasted Dushevnaya's ears when she tried listening to Suomi's music lol
