Foil Tag not working as intended? | Balatro | Page 1

Hello there!

I encountered a bug (?)

I had a Foil tag, which was not used on the first shop that followed, because instead of jokers, there where only tarot cards in my shop.
I played one round and kept the foil tag, but in the next shop i got a joker and the tag was used.
But instead of making the joker foiled and free for sale (0 dollars) i got it foiled and the price was not set to 0 Dollars.

Is this a bug or is it working as intended?

When i finsh the run, i will post the seed if that is needed.
thx 4 your time 🙇🏻 ❤️‍🩹

Game Version: 1.0.1n-FULL
Seed: AGEEJWWA
Ante of the foil tag used: ?
Shop the bug accoured: Ante 3 / 1st Shop = Round 4

do you have a screenshot of that shop?

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:18 AM

#

edgy trench do you have a screenshot of that shop?

Yes, i think i can manage that. But u will not glimpse much, cause the tag that has been used up, isnt visible anymore.
But i will post the seed, once my run is over to see if this bug is replicatable.

Would that help?

#

yes, this seems like a bug

edgy trench Feb 2, 2025, 10:19 AM

#

well, you could try to see if it happens again by going through the seed again but i don't think anyone else will go through that effort

obsidian rock Feb 2, 2025, 10:20 AM

#

i just want to see it happen

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:21 AM

#

Its not far into the antes. so its not much struggle to get to that point. low stackes also.

#

Screenshot, but u cant see much since the Foil tag was used on the Fortune Teller Joker.

obsidian rock Feb 2, 2025, 10:22 AM

#

and it wasn't free?

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:22 AM

#

If i quit out into the main menue & go back continuing the run, it shows me still the price of 8$

#

i can screenshot that too.
But still u cant see the tag beeing used up

edgy trench Feb 2, 2025, 10:23 AM

#

so you had exactly 8 dollars going into this shop?

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:23 AM

#

yes.

edgy trench Feb 2, 2025, 10:24 AM

#

i'd still have to see the before and after, so you having the foil tag during the blind before, and then the screenshot at the shop. also, is this a completely unmodded game?

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:24 AM

#

but the foil tag states, the foilifed joker should have been free and normaly cost would reduce to "0"

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:26 AM

#

edgy trench i'd still have to see the before and after, so you having the foil tag during th...

yes, i had the tag the blind b4.
but i cant get a screenshot of that anymore. thats why i will provide the seed or even the screenshot and play myself to that point with the seed again if it would help you.

also yes, it is a completly unmodded game. only the free add-ons are installed. (among-us deck from jimbo and friends etc pp)

obsidian rock Feb 2, 2025, 10:26 AM

#

you have the seed at this point right?

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:26 AM

#

not yet since im here and reporting the case 🙂 but i can crush my run now.

#

if you wish.

obsidian rock Feb 2, 2025, 10:26 AM

#

nah win it

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:27 AM

#

i share the seed and try to recreate the case once im done with the run, would that be ok 4 u?

edgy trench Feb 2, 2025, 10:27 AM

#

sounds good

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:28 AM

#

#

here screenshot from quiting out and continuing in

obsidian rock Feb 2, 2025, 10:29 AM

#

was it 0 before quitting?

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:31 AM

#

obsidian rock was it 0 before quitting?

nope. i joined the next shop, also im fresh in ante 3 - so all 3 fights were up, and the fortune teller got the foil modification but the price did not went down to 0 dollar.

so b4 i defeated ante 2 boss, got the foil tag on ante 2 iirc, it carried me over to ante 3 and in this shop it happend, but like i said, the price did not went down.

obsidian rock Feb 2, 2025, 10:32 AM

#

strange

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:32 AM

#

ye, most of the time when it works normal u can "see" it happen right before your eyes.

#

that how it normaly works.

#

and i saw it all happen like normal, but the price stayed up. only thing that didnt happen.

#

but was supposed to happen. thats why i asked if this is a bug or not. cause technically it was not the "next" shop.

#

but the one thereafter. cause the imidate next shop, was like i said, full on tarot cards. so the foil was not used up there.

obsidian rock Feb 2, 2025, 10:35 AM

#

yea i'll need to play it myself before making any conclusions

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:36 AM

#

obsidian rock yea i'll need to play it myself before making any conclusions

yep, understandable.

#

i crushed the run, cause i want to know 🙂

#

edgy trench Feb 2, 2025, 10:40 AM

#

#

i'm guessing you got that Hallucination joker for free maybe

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:41 AM

#

obsidian rock Feb 2, 2025, 10:42 AM

obsidian rock Feb 2, 2025, 10:45 AM

#

edgy trench Feb 2, 2025, 10:45 AM

#

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:47 AM

#

hearty lagoon Feb 2, 2025, 10:51 AM

#

edgy trench Feb 2, 2025, 10:51 AM

#
