Kinda wish this was how Kure always looked and how storms in-game actually looked.

The port music is equally fantastic. Art, and music, carry the game once more.

While I can understand the appeal of this variation on the Kure port and I feel the Art Department continues to "win", it only took me a couple of minutes to switch back my port screen to Hawaii.
I was looking at my Shokaku with the Azur Lane Shokaku camouflage, and the camo was darkened and muted by the ambiance and lighting of the Kure Halloween port.
And I decided, "nope".

To be fair, I simply wasn't in the mood for the darkness at that moment.
Perhaps I'll revisit the Kure Halloween port as 'All Hallow's Eve' approaches.

What I like is that the ships are "dancing". 🙂

It is kind of hauntingly beatiful, also the music. Just.. what am I seeing on top of that crane?....

🙂 The first pic in my post is from the top of the crane. The second is the pagoda which you see in your pic in the distance.

 

( there is a mod that allows to zoom out and look around...to a degree. One still has to use rotate, but the circle is big coz the zoom out is maxed out)

The occasional flying dragon is rather splendid too:

It's an eastern style dragon.

Possibly "Neverending Story" as well?

Three dragons in the port and three new dragon camos… 🤔

Nah, probably just a coincidence.

Three dragons in the port and three new dragon camos…

Haven't we missed one somewhere - aren't there dragon cammos for all three tech tree ships, plus the T9 premium? Wonder if there is a fourth hidden somewhere in the harbour...?

Nope, only three: Bungo, Tsurugi, and Adatara.

The only camo for Yumihari is the one from the collection.

I have to admit, I thought that Kure is just.....well Newport News. But I zoomed out completely and...

....it is not. Shockingly, it seems to be a minimap in itself!! Wow....

You're right, of course - for some reason, I thought the Yumihari one (from the collection) was another dragon. It isn't!

The rain is so heavy, it's probably got enough inherent power to move through it?

Given how the port interface runs so slowly...and makes opening things like the armory and shipyard and news tabs really buggy...

I only use Ocean port...as it uses less to run and therefore doesn't cause the UI to crap out as often.

Sure, the ports LOOK good...but struggling with the UI because WG doesn't think making it stable is worth the effort pretty much negates the possible positives.

I liked it so much I immediately changed back to Fjords!  So much better!

Lol. Same. 

But I did like this one for the weather, I considered leaving it longer than normal.

Oddly enough, I was offered a survey via an in-game pop-up message, last night.
Feedback on the Kure Halloween Port was among the questions on the survey.
