[minor arrow]

[lucid cargo]

1MATCF-DTDL3-L7GMK here a beta steam multiplayer key

[drowsy imp]

The multiplayer is avaible?

[lucid cargo]

no this is a early access beta key

just for steam

[dark gull]

is there any way to apply for closed beta rn?

[drowsy imp]

And how i can use?

[cerulean sun]

[lucid cargo]

that code gives you access to multiplayer

[drowsy imp]

But where i have to put ?

[lucid cargo]

it only works once so whoever uses it first gets it

[drowsy imp]

Oooo

[lucid cargo]

if it dose not work i have more codes.

[drowsy imp]

But i dont know where put the code jsjjss 😭

[winter geode]

[winter geode]

Bro you lowkey tricked me this is invalid 😭

[wicked osprey]

on the ||constant|| subject of multiplayer, if anyones willing to try out the unofficial MP mod, lmk. i've got nobody else to play with so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lucid cargo]

is sould work

[winter geode]

I tested it and it's kinda mid ngl

[zealous herald]

"its mid" is not very helpful for the devs that made it

[wicked osprey]

how so? is it busted or?

[cerulean sun]

it doesn't work

[winter geode]

Nah, Is just slow and the opponent is the dealer

idk

in my personal opinion

I don't like it

[wicked osprey]

you mean their model? that ain't a big deal.

[drowsy imp]

Thanks

[stiff holly]

my friends and I are trying to get access to it but can't figure out how

[scenic wind]

When is multiplayer coming out?

[lucid cargo]

on the 28th

[scenic wind]

Oh

[drowsy imp]

:)

[wicked osprey]

i got it to work, wasn't too bad. just gotta download the mod loader and put it in there, should be on the website.

[lucid cargo]

i have it but thar is no one to play with

[stiff holly]

OOOooh missed the mod part, I mean it's 28th of this month right? Not that far away

[storm galleon]

i can play with u i just need a key

[wicked osprey]

ah i gotcha

[hallow bear]

so the beta signup a month or so ago was just meaningless?

[lucid cargo]

do you have a key

[storm galleon]

no

[scenic wind]

I just got the game today

[lucid cargo]

cool

[scenic wind]

Soooo

[lucid cargo]

do you like it

[scenic wind]

Yes

[lucid cargo]

good

vary good game

[storm galleon]

true

[lucid cargo]

mike did a good job

[scenic wind]

Yesssss

[cerulean sun]

Gameboy you said you had more keys?

[minor arrow]

we need like a sticker or something that we can post to answer the constant multiplayer questions lmao

[mild violet]

When can the people filled out the forum play?

[minor arrow]

my point proven

[wicked osprey]

like that one

[minor arrow]

basically uh the form idea got canned, it's gonna be an open beta now

releases on the 28th

since we gotta specify that a lot

[mild violet]

Do we know what day?

Thanks

[lucid cargo]

monday

[minor arrow]

dude

[zealous herald]

should have pinned something regarding multiplayer

[zealous herald]

so you just say "pins" instead of retelling everything

bit late now i suppose

[wicked osprey]

i mean the questions would keep coming either way because people don't check. we should get like the stickied message bot

[snow citrus]

hi, quick question, is it possible to transfer the itch.io purchase to steam? or a way to get a key from itch?

[minor arrow]

nope you gotta rebuy

[snow citrus]

aw man, understandable, thank you

[minor arrow]

it would just be too hard to verify and send out that many keys, yeah sorry

[zealous herald]

You might be able to contact someone from the dev team and ask for a key

if you provide proof of purchase

but no guarantees

[mild violet]

Sorry I'm using mobile data 😅

[minor arrow]

valid

[snow citrus]

ooo alright ill see if i can gather all the needed proof

[leaden ocean]

Do we know why the form idea got canned?
And why the heck it's so close to realse where they can't update the game if there is a bug or something that we find?

Nvm I got my answer from looking at the steam page.
"Yes, it’s gonna be open beta, because 'after taking a look at the enormous list of applications for the closed beta, we just couldn’t bring ourselves to not grant everyone' the access — which will be provided on our Discord server, so don’t forget to join it!"

The only reason I can possibly think of that you would push back the date so much would be to get a public access beta code working for steam, because I know it's rather shitty with steam

[scenic wind]

yo

[digital pendant]

how can i enter the beta?

[subtle bluff]

"open beta"

[normal pulsar]

how do i open multiplayer

[normal pulsar]

never mind

[fresh flame]

MultiPlayer Mod News!!
Today I implemented a new feature into the unofficial MultiPlayer mod… you can talk with the Dealer over the in-game chat! Send him a message and he’ll talk back. He might even comment on your health! This update will hopefully be released tomorrow night.

[wicked osprey]

[hollow sonnet]

Wait what the sigma

[frosty cloak]

[fresh flame]

read 👏 the 👏 previous 👏 messages

[obtuse vault]

Oh, sorry

[undone orbit]

We need a jar for people asking about multiplayer at this point. We've got plenty in the jars ARG.

[rigid edge]

do we know will multiplayer be a free update or will it cost extra?

[pliant willow]

Free

[rigid edge]

yay ❤️

[light bear]

How can I get multiplayer beta keys for me and a couple of friends?

[pliant willow]

You wait until the open beta opens on the 28th

[soft night]

I want to have a buckshot roulette puzzle composition contest

[deep warren]

But I wanna shoot people at a short-range distance with (potentially) loaded shotguns now!

[pliant willow]

soon

[fresh flame]

Then get the mod!!

[deep warren]

Oh, and genuine question:

Anyone know if the Double or Nothing-exclusive items will appear in Multiplayer too?

[pliant willow]

Yes

Adrenaline appeared what from Ive gathered so others should too

[forest shoal]

most of them did

my only source of knowing is watching streamers, but yeah as far as im aware they do appear

[soft night]

@lofty wharf @ember rose I figured out an analytical equation to measure damage equity for buckshot roulette in systems involving only handcuffs, beer, and saws. First you calculate L/(L+B) which is the multiplier for the score. The player going first gets +1 if they are on the odd shot, zero otherwise. Handcuffs are worth +2, beer and saw are worth +1 each.

For example: 3L1B, player has handcuffs, dealer has beer. Multiplier is 0.75. The player is on the even shot so they gain no equity from going first, player gets +2 for handcuffs -1 for dealer beer. Overall player equity is +1 x 0.75 = 0.75

This operates under the assumption that each player has the opportunity to use all their items effectively, which is often not true. However, I think the method is still illustrative.

Also this does not account for dealer mistakes

The dealer is expected to always shoot the opponent

I find it interesting that beer and saw have an equal equity gain when used effectively. The difference is that beer is only effective on even shots, and the saw is always effective

Wheras magnifying glasses and inverters have item synergies, cuffs, beer, and saws have no synergies with each other in an ideal system. Beer + cuffs have some practical synergistic effects where you can get +1 from beer + cuffs versus the ideal +3 in situations where each item on its own would not have an opportinity to be used effectively and practically yield zero equity on its own

Beer + beer and cuffs + cuffs also have no synergies at all, ideal or practical

[soft night]

Inverters don't have much synergy either so they are not too difficult to include. The only thing they synergize with is the saw. But, their equity contribution is described by a different equation: (B-L)/(L+B). And they also can function as a substitute for beer when the count has all lives or almost all lives.

[covert cairn]

does anyone know how i can get the buckshot roulette multiplayer beta

[soft night]

If one more person asks that I will make them play buckshot roulette in real life

[pliant willow]

Go to #│news

[covert cairn]

oh

sorry lol

[pliant willow]

If you people want info so badly go to the annoucnements channel
WHy do so many people lack that common sense

Every single day its the same question

[covert cairn]

im just a not smart person

idk how to use discord lol

thx for directing me to the announcements

[pliant willow]

Yea

[spring cosmos]

It's the thing everyone is waiting for so sometimes excitement overrides thinking and they go asking before looking. Lot of people coming in every day means it just happens sometimes

[undone orbit]

Unsure if people were coming in asking about multiplayer before the beta was even announced, but I remember there were tons of Steam discussion posts asking about it.

[winter geode]

4 days left

[vague terrace]

will there be multiplayer exclusive items

[undone orbit]

Holds strange remote-type item, hides behind back.
Nope.

And there were never any teasers or early access build footage suggesting there are.

[undone orbit]

I haven't watched any videos myself, but I believe all items from the current version will be in multiplayer, except for Expired Medicine. They're just too awful to be useable, from what I've heard.

[vague terrace]

okay

LMAO

[undone orbit]

I'll probably wait until multiplayer officially launches on the 31st. There's another game I happen to be looking forward to ~4 days from today.

[vague terrace]

which game is that?

[undone orbit]

Bloons Card Storm. >:3

I get to throw helium-filled rubber at monkeys.

[foggy pagoda]

Guys pls release this game to MAC OS, I'll buy it to all my friends

[spiral horizon]

2 blank and 1 live

[livid kelp]

so no way getting beta key now?only w8ing to openbeta?

[frozen python]

what the fu...?

[sleek glen]

this has to be some piece of lore

[glacial ether]

Imagine we get this for a rare screen lol

People gonna try to find if this has lore or not lol

[cerulean pendant]

how u get the beta

[pliant willow]

You wait until it comes out on the 28th

Theyre prob gonna give us a code or smth idk how betas work Ive never done one lol

[haughty harbor]

I don't think so but I could be wrong because as far as the timeline winXP isn't a thing yet

Oh man you need to run it on Volta os lol

[stoic mortar]

i live in a street Called "Volta"

[night brook]

Usually it can be accessed in steam propertoes

[night brook]

Doxxed confirmed???

[stoic mortar]

there are many

and if it was actualy lore related i sadly did not find any remington 870 near my area

[idle venture]

I love these fuckers.

[night brook]

Husks for life

[idle venture]

Woe, nerfs be upon ye.

People usually go with husks because of the OP gameplay advantages, not because they legitimately like the faction.

The latest update is the true test of loyalty.

[thorny carbon]

Does anyone know if Buckshot roulette is going to rise in price after the mp update?

[olive falcon]

guys where do i sign up for mp open beta

[stoic mortar]

if understand correctly it will just be open for everyone

[mental smelt]

By joining this server you've already signed up, don't worry. It's gonna start on October 28th

[silk flower]

frothing at the mouth wanting the multiplayer to drop already

the 28th cannot possibly get here fast enough

While we wait, I propose an idea for us all the chew on:
Buckshot Roulette Couch Co-Op

[stuck drum]

Anyone else getting the "Interaction Failed" message on the giveaway ;-;

[dense hawk]

i can't join the giveaway

[dense hawk]

me

[stuck drum]

I got it to work by restarting discord, I think there was just too much traffic on the button at the time

[stuck drum]

Also it told me that I was already entered, meaning it probably worked initially but just didn

Didn't display that it did*

Buckshot roulette puzzle composition

[stoic mortar]

i was thinking

because i have a Modded 3DS

immagine how cool it would be if someone Makes a Port of Buckshot rulette for it

or the nintendo Switch

[chrome wyvern]

anyone wanna buy me buckshot roullete

[fresh violet]

hello guys i wanted to download mods for the game , opened nexus mods it says it requires a mod loader and the redirect to a git hub and for some reason i feel stupid and cant download the mod loader can someone help me download it 🙂 ,, the link
https://github.com/AGO061/BuckshotRouletteModLoader

[fervent marsh]

how do you mean cant download it?

like you cant find the file or its being blocked for some reason?

[fresh violet]

i cant find the file

i am stupid i know

[fervent marsh]

nah i feel that

i always thought githubs layout was confusing

https://github.com/AGO061/BuckshotRouletteModLoader/releases/tag/2.0.3

thats the release page

with a list of files under assets

you probably want the brml_setup.exe

you can normally find that release tab to the right of the page around the middle under "about" and all the information

[fresh violet]

only that file ?

or download all and setup using the .exe

[fervent marsh]

im pretty sure you just need the exe now

idk if its changed to be easier but i remember this being really complicated cause you needed this and like a xdelta patcher

but now i think its just generates a copy of the exe with the mods you want on it

but you shouldnt need the rest of the files no

[fresh violet]

ok thanks man

[fervent marsh]

my pleasure hope it works out

[silk flower]

huh

there's br mods

Correction: there's one br mod

Second correction: there's actually a few, just one on nexus

[tepid thunder]

Any way to access the music in multiplayer without the other game noise?

[nocturne island]

Can i play Buckshot Roulette on linux?

[chrome wyvern]

pls

im here

[pliant willow]

Its not out yet

Content creators get it early

At this point I should make a copypasta specifically because once every hour someone asks about multiplayer

This is ridiculous

Because they probably got contacted by CR to get a beta build for bug-testing etc

[cosmic axle]

by being a channel with a desent amount of viewers so they can promote it...

[undone orbit]

It's a thing that happens all the time in a bunch of games.

Youtubers show off a special early playable version, both giving feedback for the future builds and to help promote that future build despite the developers not feeling ready for a public release.

[cosmic axle]

open beta is 31 okt if am not mistaken

[undone orbit]

Open Beta is 28th, real version releases 31st.

[cosmic axle]

ohh yeah right. my bad

[primal dune]

man, is there a bug where burner phone is just wrong?

it was a live even though phone said it's a blank

[undone orbit]

If there ever was, it should've been fixed by now. Are you sure you're counting from the shell you use the phone on? Not the first shell of the whole load?

[primal dune]

wait, it counts from the load? i thought it was like

i see the problem now, thanks

[undone orbit]

It counts from your current shell.

[primal dune]

okay

[undone orbit]

For example, you start with 1 live and 2 blanks. Use a beer to eject a blank to be on 1:1, then the phone says "2nd shell is blank". That means the next shell is blank, and the shell you're on is live.

[primal dune]

ohhhhh

i see now

thanks man, i appreciate it

[undone orbit]

It's probably to try simplifying it (so you don't have to backtrack your counting so much) and to not have a chance of telling you shells that aren't in the chamber anymore.

[primal dune]

alright

[silk flower]

Huh

I thought burner phone counted from load

Wow that means I've been getting stupid lucky

[stoic mortar]

it counts from the current shell

[silk flower]

Right yeah

I just read

[stoic mortar]

i was fooled too many times

[silk flower]

I feel like this means there's been a handful of times where I should've absolutely shot myself but got lucky

[frozen python]

hi

[light yacht]

Hey for the multiplayer beta, how do we sign up?

[silk flower]

please read info

[rough plover]

Wait until the 28th then they most likely give us the beta code

[winter geode]

When i can get the code

[rough plover]

The beta starts the 28th

Codes not out yet

[winter geode]

Ik that but how i can get codes

when its 28th

[rough plover]

Theyll most likely post it here in the discord

[winter geode]

Oh ok thx

[neon tide]

i pretty much hope that the multiplayer update will fix the crackling sound bug (ik its godot's issue but still)

[light yacht]

I must have missed the info or read past it because I cannot find the information on it. Could you send me that direction please?

[neon tide]

what?

[light yacht]

You said to please read the info and I haven't seen where to sign up for the early access anywhere, I just saw that it will be provided in the discord. Has the sign up area just not been released yet?

[neon tide]

i havent said anything abt this

[light yacht]

Sorry that was Manthor.

My bad, please excuse me.

[neon tide]

yeh u good

[proper creek]

Will buckshot come to consoles?

[light yacht]

I was just looking for the sign up area for the multiplayer beta. Not sure if I am being silly and it just isn't here yet.

[neon tide]

i mean

possibly

since the game can be used with the controllers

[craggy arch]

You and me both brother.

[potent smelt]

hey guys is the multiplayer gonna work between the steam and itch.io versions?

cuz I have the steam one and my friend has the itch.io one

[zealous herald]

Nope

[potent smelt]

shit

[zealous herald]

not on launch at least

[jovial dagger]

Heyo, just wanted to find some clarity on the multiplayer. Saw a bunch of videos drop with people playing it so wasn't sure if it was a beta or if the trailer date was for steam and the IO one already had it

[potent smelt]

youtubers got an early access, discord gets it 2 days early, it officialy releases on the 31st

[jovial dagger]

Awesome ty! Just wanted to know what to tell the boys so we could cordinate lol

[hardy coyote]

I aint waiting 2 days, thats why im here ;)

[potent smelt]

fr

I gifted the game to 3 of my friends just so we can do multiplayer

[hardy coyote]

Imma shot my friends (in buckshot)

[hardy coyote]

I gifted it to almost my whole family xD

[late mirage]

https://youtu.be/Z683Eo_G1Mg?si=blisLHQcPf8W_o5d

[simple pilot]

i really want to play the multiplayer but i only have buckshot on itch 💔

[humble wadi]

when is mp release?

[stoic mortar]

31, but there is a open playtest for everybody on the 28

i don't know at what time tho

or i don't remember

[humble wadi]

28 we will be able to update on steam and receive mp?

[stoic mortar]

i guess so

[frail crane]

Why did they it was just like sonic.exe 😭

Actually imagine dealer playing against sonic exe

[sonic musk]

I started playing, and not once has he shot himself with a live round, or me with a blank, geeze.

Well, he's done the former once, now.

[night brook]

It’s will probably be in the betas tab of the properties on the game

[upbeat merlin]

so youtubers and streamers playing the multiplayer got extra early access to the multiplayer or?

[pliant willow]

Yes

[upbeat merlin]

okay

[night brook]

Need a sign on my door at Halloween saying “playing buckshot roulette, disregard gunshots”

[fresh flame]

GOODNESS GRACIOUS @stiff thistle HOW DO YOU HAVE $350,000 ALREADY

[soft night]

Is that a lot?

[fresh flame]

She beat the smarter dealer 5 times

Which is 5 times more than anyone on the mod leaderboard atm

[unkempt marten]

Sorry for having to copy and past this but nobody saw it "Hey, I'm new to this discord server but me and my friend want to play multiplayer because this is the only game I enjoy. I'm not an influencer or anything but I could put it on my channel which only has 59 subscribers maybe that could help you guys in that way? I got BUCKSHOT on steam."

[fresh flame]

there’s a reason no one responded to you. why don’t you play the multiplayer mod?

[soft night]

Is this the multiplayer mod or a different smarter dealer mod?

[fresh flame]

The multiplayer mod, it keeps track of score whenever you beat the smarter dealer

[soft night]

How smart is the smart dealer?

[unkempt marten]

@slim lava Hey, I'm new to this discord server but me and my friend want to play multiplayer because this is the only game I enjoy. I'm not an influencer or anything but I could put it on my channel which only has 59 subscribers maybe that could help you guys in that way? I got BUCKSHOT on steam.

[soft night]

Did you program a new smarter dealer? There have been several attempts in the past

[fresh flame]

Nope, I got permission from ITR to use his! His is objectively the best and the reason I started playing Buckshot

[valid slate]

I just started on YouTube, with a video game channel in Spanish and I have started with BuckShot, come check it out, constructive criticism is accepted -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kx-gSOJ0-4E

[stiff thistle]

woah really :O i thought ppl had already beaten it, i guess im just lucky xD

its so fun tho, since idk how he works 100% yet, so its really fun learning it

[snow glacier]

#│self-promo

[fresh dagger]

oh wait I thought the beta code was here lol nvm then ill just wait

[fresh flame]

NEW MULTIPLAYER MOD UPDATE!! v0.3.1
The Dealer's chat is now powered by ChatGPT! See if you can get him to say weird stuff! 😄
Also, there's now a leaderboard on the CRT screen! Now everyone can see @stiff thistle's scores in all their glory...
Let me know what you think of this mod update!

[minor arrow]

current objective: teach the dealer to tell me to kill myself every time he realizes the current shell is live and i have a handsaw

low tier dealer

[raw ridge]

How do i download it?

[frail crane]

I tell Dealer to kill himself when it's his turn (I just wanna win)

[fleet geyser]

yo i just bought the game i love it but for my console friends i want to play with we'd like to know when the game will be released on console?

i think devs said late 2024 but is that 100% cause if so that'd be real soon

[grave void]

crusty dealer

[pastel pumice]

I'm watching a vid of the multiplayer beta, and.... No expired meds...?

They make DoN so much more interesting, why not throw them in online?

[pastel pumice]

I'm hoping for Switch, tbh, but who knows....

[potent smelt]

[pastel pumice]

BR to-go....

Actually, just a thought....

A demake for SNES or Genesis could be interesting.....

[idle venture]

Yea, the item kinda sucks. Its main use in DoN is letting the Dealer steal them from you, thanks to his predictable behavior. In multiplayer they'll mostly just clog up your inventory.

[pastel pumice]

Honestly, anything can clog your inv

[idle venture]

Meds are the only thing which actively hurts you when you use them just to get rid of them.

[pastel pumice]

Plus, it doesn't suck. It's a 50/50 to heal 2 or tank 1. Annoying when it fails, sure, but it's balanced. I can forgive it

Besides, it's smart not to risk it at one, but if you also have a cig, you either heal 3, or waste 2 items for nothing. The latter is bad, but if you survive, that's still 2 extra item slots

I've seen inverts clog more often than anything

Actually, I find beers the most frequent in DoN, pills are rare

[idle venture]

Beers or inverters clogging up inventory is entirely the player's fault, because you can just use them up regardless of the situation.

And I don't know, maybe you unlocked some hidden knowledge about the pills. Most players who go for long DoN runs generally avoid those.

[pastel pumice]

Idk what hidden knowledge there is to find. It's literally 50/50 to heal 2 or damage 1. Why would you risk it at 1 health?

That's why you use a cig first

I genuinely don't know what kind of hidden tactic you think I found

Besides, I like taking risks at times

Admittedly, I have gotten lucky recently, but I'm not immune, I'm well aware

[idle venture]

That's basically the only time you'd actually use the pills. When your chances to die on the Dealer's turn are higher than 50% and you can't prevent that turn from happening.

[zealous herald]

yea the pills will either end everything quicker or give you a chance to keep playing

[pastel pumice]

The pill strat is really simple. Use a cig, that's +1 health. Then use the pill. Either that's a net +3 health, or wasting 2 items for nothing

[idle venture]

Or you can get +1 HP every single time in that situation.

[pastel pumice]

The game is already risk/reward. I don't think playing it 100% safe is the best method. But that's just my opinion

[idle venture]

If we're talking about what's statistically the best for getting the highest score, then safe plays are the best. If we're talking about fun, you can do literally whatever.

[pastel pumice]

For highest score, sure, maybe

Maybe that's why I got only $10 my first round on my most recent attempt

But I got pulled from near death using it, so...

But then there's online.... There's no score to worry about, so those risks aren't as important as DoN

[idle venture]

It's possible that Mike's concern regarding the pills in multiplayer was that they have the potential to drag out the rounds too much.

[zealous herald]

if they were removed in testing it was probably for a good reason

[idle venture]

Probably. Though you can't say that for everything.

Like, what the fuck is that phone change and why can you have 3 doses of adrenaline at once?

[pastel pumice]

I do think nerfing the phones to be useless on the last 2 rounds is smart

[idle venture]

The phone is already harder to use effectively in multiplayer, as your chances of landing on the shell which was revealed to you are lower than in singleplayer.

The game also spams the phones, letting you have up to 4 of them in your inventory.

That's a pretty weak compensation and serves as more of a downside.

[pastel pumice]

Yes, but if you're in a call with your opponents, you can use that to your advantage. Either be honest, or lie straight to their face

[idle venture]

Sure, you can do that, if you actually are in a call. But as far as lying goes, you can get a lot of mileage even out of a single phone.

[pastel pumice]

How often you get them, sure, I'll give that, but you have to think strategically, too

The only catch is remembering it counts how many are left in the chamber, not how many the round started with

[idle venture]

The real catch is that if people aren't communicating or choose to ignore your yapping, most phone calls will give you no usable information.

[pastel pumice]

Honestly, I'd say multiplayer could be a cross between Liar's Dice and, well.... The actual dangerous game it's based on

[pastel pumice]

Depends on the situation, not a guarantee. But I don't think they'd leave the phone in if they didn't consider it

Everything else, there's definite tells, no communication needed. The phones... They're pretty useless in that scenario specifically

Look at it from the devs perspective and ask, what's more likely? Playing with people you know on call, or playing with randos?

To me, the answer's obvious

[stiff thistle]

i simply think meds arent on MP cuz the mike didnt want the players to kill themselves if they had only one charge

is the same reason the dealer doesnt use the meds if he has 1 charge

[mortal tusk]

I just got the game, can you skip your own turn either in singleplayer or in multiplayer when it comes out?

[stiff thistle]

owwww you spoiling me xD gonna have fun with chatgpt dealer now :3c

[idle venture]

Not really, but simply shooting any of the opponents is a safe way to quickly end your turn and gamble for a bit of damage at the same time.
Beer skips the current shell without ending your turn, which may also be close to what you want.
In multiplayer, if you skip the final shell in the loadout using beer, your turn will end.

[mortal tusk]

Can you also play 1v1 in multiplayer?

[stiff thistle]

he destroyed me

[stiff thistle]

yes you can

[mortal tusk]

Ok, cool😁

Thank you

[stiff thistle]

:)

[soft night]

I think the reason is because they are far and away the item with the highest variance. They can swing the momentum of an entire round on a coin flip

[random dagger]

Why is he such a diva 🫰

[keen aspen]

I haven't had many issues with the pills either, I find them really balanced. It's a gamble, yeah, and sometimes could be considered unfair, but the whole point of the game is to gamble, so I see no reason to be upset at a loss.

From my experience with the meds it seems to determine the 50/50 at the start of your turn, and it's the same with the dealer. So you literally have to gamble and get lucky. In simpler terms, at the start of the turn it'll pick a heads or a tails, tails in this example is the pills not working and heads is the pills working, you gotta hope it picks heads. If the program runs on pre-determined seeds then you gotta hope to get a seed where you'd get mostly heads on the flip. So, there would be unlucky outliars, but most of the time it should be a relatively 50/50 split.

[subtle phoenix]

I was about to finish off the dealer and the game closed

[fresh flame]

It doesn’t, actually. The game determines the 50/50 at the moment you decide to use the medicine

[keen aspen]

Oh cool, didn't know that lol

Thx for tellin' me

[subtle phoenix]

Idk if you guys talked about it, but the "sus" in the "double or nothing" pills reminds me of my country's healthcare system(SUS)

[subtle phoenix]

you may think about amogus but I think of a brazilian healthcare system

[fresh flame]

clearly we are not the same

[subtle phoenix]

no matter how relatable we can be, no one is the same

[opal stirrup]

YOUR country?? Ho ho, no no no... you are mistaken. It is MY country.

[echo onyx]

Where is the multiplayer beta?

[pliant willow]

Its nit out yet

[night brook]

Read news

It’s not out yet

[pliant willow]

I rlly should make a copypasta for everytime someone asks about multiplayer so I dont have to keep typing it out

[echo onyx]

Damn

[opal stirrup]

When is buckshot roulette coming out

[night brook]

Yeah fr people jump straight to here instead of reading news 💀

[echo onyx]

Well the steam page says there’s a beta on the discord server, can you blame people for assuming there would be one

[night brook]

I can blame people for not reading the news channel first

[fresh flame]

December 2023

All the brainrot on the itch.io page is infuriating, people are STILL talking about Steam keys 😞

[pliant willow]

Its been almost a year and people are still asking if they get a steam key for the steam release if they bought it on itch

Its $3

[night brook]

Dude it’s 3 dollars please just like get it on steam

[fresh flame]

They also probably forget that Mike was a not-super-well-known indie dev last year, then the game blew up and he got the opportunity to put it on Steam. People are so used to the idea of big companies ripping them off that they use that same bad faith argument against a single person

[subtle phoenix]

OUR COUNTRY!

[pliant willow]

The least someone could do is just buy it again on steam and support him

But apparently thats too much for some people in here xd

It rlly doesnt cost that much idk why some people are so against the idea of having it buy it again

[night brook]

Anyone who bought it on itch can buy it on steam, if you can buy it once you can buy it again

[subtle phoenix]

BRAZIL YEAH!

[stiff thistle]

its mine too :3 trully brazillians are everywhere

[night brook]

The best country is wherever buckshot roulette takes place

[fresh flame]

I wouldn’t even agree with the “Just buy it again” argument, Buckshot on itch was cheap for a reason and this multiplayer update makes it a completely new game. It’s like DLC

[lavish bobcat]

How bad are things in your life that for you the best country is the one where people blow their faces off with a shotgun for money xddd

[night brook]

This one is also cheap, but when the multiplayer comes out its price will probably increase so I would buy it now on steam

[pliant willow]

The price is staying the same iirc

[night brook]

I see were dogging on hobbies 😔 heaven forbid a woman does things

[fresh flame]

Well that would make it even more of a stupid argument, if even new steam users would have to pay more

[night brook]

Well what do you propose then

Mike can’t give everyone a key

[stiff thistle]

yooo i got the maximum badge for BR, looks fancy :O

[fresh flame]

No I’m on your side, I think the argument that “We bought this version on this platform, we deserve this other version on this other platform” is nonsense

[night brook]

Mb 💀 me when i misunderstand

[fresh flame]

Nah ur ok

[stiff thistle]

i wonder if these rounds are canonical or not lol, also, this was as expensive as the game to get i think (not expensive at all actually)

[stiff thistle]

lol

[pliant willow]

Are we the therapist or is he

[subtle phoenix]

where is this from?

[pliant willow]

I made a quick copypaste message that should apply for any question a new server member has about multiplayer

Where is the multiplayer beta?
Its not out yet. Open beta releases on the 28th, and the full release is on the 31st.
ALTERNATE: If it is currently the 28th in your timezone, check the Events tab at the top of the channel list to see the release time for your timezone.

How do I get into the beta?
You have already entered getting into the beta by being in the server. They will (most likely) do an announcement and give us a code to access the beta when the time comes.

Why am I seeing the beta on youtube?
Content creators get early access. This is common practice with most games.

Will multiplayer be random matchmaking?
Currently multiplayer will be local/steam remote play/a simple lobby system. There are plans to add matchmaking in the future, but it won't be present at release.

How many players can play multiplayer together?
2-4 players in any given game.

Will multiplayer have a chat box/voice chat?
We have no information on that currently.

Will multiplayer be on Itch.io?
No, multiplayer currently has no plans to be on itch.io, as it uses steam's servers to operate.

When will the multiplayer OST release?
It will release with the full release, on Oct 31.

[lost fog]

what are you doing?

[fresh flame]

@fresh violet If you have any questions about mods, feel free to let me know!

[ocean lotus]

does anyone know if the multi player mode is local as well ?

[digital yarrow]

Good message. This should be pinned.

[pliant willow]

O I could add a bit more to it

[spiral forge]

Thank you!

[pliant willow]

Added some to it

[proud oar]

Now, you and me, will dance to the new OST.

[winter geode]

Is there an eta for multiplayer on itch.io?

[pliant willow]

@winter geode

[winter geode]

I know it won’t come out with the beta or initial release

[pliant willow]

it uses steam's servers to operate.

I dont think itch has easily usable multiplayer servers but idk I dont use itch

[subtle phoenix]

ok, so I checked my GPU's vulkan support and I still don't know if it supports vulkan, but I'll play once more and see if it doesn't close

[stoic mortar]

This is not related to buckshot rulette but today Psycopomp Gold is out

God i love low poly disturbing games

[pliant willow]

@torpid halo

[torpid halo]

ohhhhhhhhhh thank you ❤️

[ocean wasp]

Thanks.

[shadow heath]

Currently multiplayer will be local/steam remote play only.
Might wanna edit that since its neither local nor steam remote play from what i've seen simple online lobby system is what it is

[pliant willow]

Idk cuz I havent seen any videos :p waiting till it releases to see the content myself

[tawdry thistle]

Anyone for a multiplayer??

Don't suppose you've heard anything about an ingame chat? Would be neat I think

Also happy to hear there will be some form of lobby system where you can join randoms

[pliant willow]

No idea :p

[zealous herald]

i dont think there will be a server browser or anything

generate a code then share that code with people you wanna play

[fresh flame]

Mod supremacy 😎

[stiff thistle]

i really hope there is gonna be tho, making it way easier

i really dont see why not

even the MP mod has it

yay i got 420, i got late to class to get to this lol

[stoic mortar]

Interesting name the last one there

Very comicaly cut

[pliant willow]

Also how do I get this for entertainment purposes

[humble mica]

i am so excited for multiplayer

[ember rose]

Hi

[fresh flame]

That's unfortunate. But that's also why we have a block feature

[stoic mortar]

I have no idea what that leaderboard is btw, if i open my pc i think most numbers i see are some hackers

those people have won way too much

but i might be wrong i don't know

[fresh flame]

This is the MultiPlayer mod!

[stoic mortar]

i looked into some mods but i surrended after i looked at the github page and did not recognize any file, and i did not find a good guide on YT so i just gave up, im only good at modding 3DS'eses and Switches

a Mod port of Buckshot rulette for the nintendo 3ds would be awesome, the lower screen for the items and the upper one to see the dealer and shotgun

[fallow umbra]

hello, may i ask whats the status with the multiplayer? i have seen YT videos of the mulitplayer

[stoic mortar]

it will be permanently available on Halloween

[pliant willow]

@fallow umbra

[stoic mortar]

and there is an open beta the 28th

[fallow umbra]

ah

i see

thanks

[undone orbit]

If you saw Youtubers playing it, they have early access builds. This is pretty common in video games.

[fresh flame]

DM me if you want help setting up multiplayer! I also made a customizer mod and VR mod for version 1.1

[stoic mortar]

welp i do have a ultra wide screen

ive read that if fucks up some interaction boxes tho, dunno if it's still the case

[fresh flame]

Nah buckshot's locked at 16:9

[stoic mortar]

https://youtu.be/OM3G_oR2__w?si=klLCdIlHd1poze_p

i saw this

[fresh flame]

That's... a mod

[stoic mortar]

yea, tried to make it run but i got no luck

i think i will stay without mods for now

[fresh flame]

New update to the MultiPlayer Mod! v0.3.2 - The Dealer Frickin' Died
This update fixes a crucial issue where the Dealer will stop working after the first load of round 3. Please download the update to keep playing online!

@stiff thistle I'm gonna challenge you for $139K as soon as wagers are a thing 😄

[umbral gorge]

I haven't played BR for a very long time... is this something new or did it appear here while I wasn't playing?

[stoic mortar]

always been there

[umbral gorge]

why do I always miss everything interesting...

i mean not the monitor but hole in it

[fresh flame]

Yeah that’s been there since April

[teal jackal]

I AM YIPPEE-ING

LET'S-A GO

YAHYAH

it can be pretty complicated

on a technical level

it probably will be added in the future but i doubt its gonna be at launch

[fresh flame]

They said “no one plays this anymore” 🥺

[idle venture]

He certainly is there.

[maiden osprey]

when is the multiplayer mode out???

[dull rover]

28 beta 31 out

[maiden osprey]

k

[idle venture]

Yep. And the beta will be available to everyone.

[maiden osprey]

kk

[dull rover]

scroll up to find a more detailed list

[fresh flame]

I blocked that guy

[smoky ore]

I mean what do you expect

Pdiddy is probably a name somewhere

[feral phoenix]

whoever set that username in BSR(or in steam) is just plain idiot

[fresh flame]

oh there were about 4 dozen names like that which I deleted recently

[smoky ore]

Is there any punishment for doing dumb shit like that?

[fresh flame]

Nah, I might delete the username but otherwise I let the users make their own choices. If there are two dudes who just want to play multiplayer together and they both have slurs as usernames, any other player can block them. It would be too much of a hassle to police usernames myself rather than letting users filter for themselves

At the end of the day, yeah it’s bad, but anyone who’s offended can block and be done with it

[fresh flame]

kissboy?

[fleet topaz]

what happend

[pastel pumice]

Love how the top score is $420k

[idle venture]

Guess you already took half of the dose.

[subtle phoenix]

I was going to say something but I don't want to get too freaky

[subtle phoenix]

they weren't smoking ordinary cigarette packs

[fleet topaz]

i think something is missing

[undone orbit]

What is this?

[pliant willow]

[fleet topaz]

i have no idea but i think i need to validate the game flies

[fresh flame]

what did u do to ur game? did you change the language?

[fleet topaz]

but i am gonna keep it the way it is for the time being

[fresh flame]

oh no, did you pirate this game?

[fleet topaz]

i didnt touch anything, and i havent pirated it

[fresh flame]

maybe redownload it?

[undone orbit]

At least the medicine appears to no longer be expired.

[fleet topaz]

but i find this super funny so...

gonna stream it in VC

[fresh flame]

Those values you’re seeing are normal in the game code, usually they’re replaced by your selected language

[fleet topaz]

well,

i think this might be slightey brokein

[pliant willow]

Huh

All the descriptor text seems to be missing lol

#│nightclub message

[maiden osprey]

[fresh flame]

psst

[pliant willow]

Look at the third point

[subtle phoenix]

I thought the update launches at 31st

[pliant willow]

Beta release

#│nightclub message

Well we spent months working on it

[latent moat]

anyone got access to the OST yet?

[stiff thistle]

im really curious to see where the mod and the modding community will go after the MP update

[mental horizon]

ok, i may be really dumb or maybe im missing something but how do I host a server to play with a friend on the MP mod? 🤔

[stiff thistle]

LMAO i was not expecting him to help me at all

i dont know if thats considered "cheating" or not but is so funny to me

i wonder what other ways i can abuse this power of talking to him

honestly, no matter how fun the official MP may turn out to be, this mod already has a place in my heart simply bc i can talk with the dealer

[stiff thistle]

https://github.com/j-trueman/MultiplayerServer this should help i think

confirmed, dealers don't eat.

extremely relevant to the lore im sure.

he only eats bullets to his face haha got em

[meager silo]

Oh btw I dont know if anyone will listen to me, but IDK why they dont use the original sounds for the gun and so on in the multiplayer from the videos Ive seen.

Is there like an option to use the originals, I love the original ost so much

[fresh flame]

I’ll mod it in

[winter geode]

@minor arrow what happens when you die?

What do you see

[minor arrow]

ok so basically the dealer picks up the gun, loads a single shell into it and then shoots you. the timing at which he does each action is dependent on when the winner clicks the briefcase (for example, the dealer picks up the gun and loads the shell automatically. when the winner opens the first lock on their screen, the dealer points the gun at you. once the winner opens hte briefcase that's when the dealer shoots)

[winter geode]

oop alr

😭

[undone orbit]

He's such a gentleman, dang.

[winter geode]

He said that after literally killing me 😭

Patience is

https://tenor.com/view/paramount-logo-logos-star-mountain-viacom-gif-17675607

[minor arrow]

my experiences with the dealer just made him out to basically be an edgelord who can't take a joke lmao

[winter geode]

I imagine bro talking fast as possible, while you're just confused 😭

[minor arrow]

i just pictured it as some old mafia boss in his 50s being confused as i talk about some weird thing called "kris deltarune"

[winter geode]

"In my times! ---" Ahh moment

can u rizz up the dealer in there cause I got a few things to say

@fading tangle nice name

[fading tangle]

i know

[pastel pumice]

Hey, um... Dumb question

Anyone know a good version of BR on Tabletop Sim?

[heady pendant]

Hi guys! ARG pass not solved yet?

[heady pendant]

Also
Somebody tried !cat as bot command?

[minor arrow]

Stupid headcanon: The Dealer knows the exact order that he loaded the shells into the gun, he just pretends to not know for the sake of the competitor's entertainment. If you pay attention you'll notice that the burner phone uses the Dealer's voice grunts, and specifically his voice grunts, it's not just a generic one used by everyone because the smoker has his own voice grunts. The Dealer is probably calling your phone since we don't need to deal a number, the phone just picks up a call on it's own instead, and the Dealer just tells you one of the shells. Plus, this would explain why the Dealer's call on the phone is much shorter than yours, and why he has to dial a number. He probably just punched some random numbers into the phone and held it up to his ear for theatrics and then allowed himself to "know" one of the shells. It would also explain how the Dealer figures out what's in the shell when he uses a magnifying glass despite never picking up the shotgun.

Also, he doesn't have a reason to cheat since there's zero risk that he'll die, even in game 3. You can hear his defibrillator activate after you shoot him, even after his wire got cut, so he likely has a different defibrillator hooked up to him. The reason he didn't stand up afterwards was because he was effectively playing dead to make the competitor feel proud of themselves for winning.

And besides, there's no way he's loading the shotgun that fast without looking down, he's gotta know the order.

[pastel pumice]

Maybe he's a robot of some kind

[minor arrow]

I doubt it, if he was then we would hear metal hitting the floor after we shoot him but instead it just sounds like he lands in a bunch of boxes and crates.

Plus he wouldn't need defibrillation, and I would imagine that providing enough electricity to revive someone who got shot in the head would rack up an electrical bill for the club FAST.

[pastel pumice]

Robots have less predictability than humans. Even card shufflers in casinos, which are less sophisticated, always turn out the same order with a fresh pack of cards. True randomness in machines is next to impossible

[minor arrow]

Wait there's no way he can be a robot he literally drinks beer and goes to a dentist.

[pastel pumice]

Also, there's apparently a phone number related to all of this that no longer works, and it apparently says something regarding a shutdown

[minor arrow]

yeah that's the ARG im not trying to talk about the lore lmao

is the ARG where everyone got the whole "the dealer is a robot" thing from

[pastel pumice]

Right....

But there's still an issue with what you're saying...

When do you actually see him use defibs?

He just gets back up and brushes it off like nothing happened

[minor arrow]

i mean, we dont but you can hear them activate every time he gets shot. plus the timing from when he gets shot to when he gets defibrillated lines up perfectly to the amount of time that passes between YOU getting shot and getting defibrillated.

and he definitely doesn't just brush it off his entire face gets screwed up the first time you shoot him lmao

also he bleeds

there's no way that a guy who bleeds, deforms when getting shot, and needs to go to a dentist is a robot

he would also short circuit from the beer, plus we don't see any wires connected to his hands even when they're in broad daylight (like when he reaches across the table to handcuff you)

[pastel pumice]

We don't see arms, either. Just hands...

[minor arrow]

he's definitely not human that's for sure, but he isn't a robot either, im pretty sure they're some type of monster / alternate species with similar intelligence to humans

and it's not just how humans are stylized in mikes games because we have a bunch of human models, including the smoker, with the whole "having limbs" shtick

but anyways yeah rate the headcanon (remember it's not a theory) #│nightclub message

[pastel pumice]

Btw, how did you guys talk to the dealer?

[wispy jewel]

Someone where does he know where the lore is?

[minor arrow]

someone made a multiplayer mod that lets you chat with your opponent. the dev, MSLaFavor, recently added a way to play against the dealer using the mod's ruleset (they also have a much smarter AI thanks to ITR). A patch to this update lets the dealer use chat and his responses are powered by ChatGPT, which sadly means asking him if i should kill myself using a handsaw means he wont respond

ah, 5 am

Very excited for the multiplayer to come out for this game. Since there won't be any matchmaking, do you think this is an appropriate place to look for people to play with?

[zealous herald]

yeah for sure

where else

voice chat will probably be through this server.too

i hope there is ingame text chat though

[thin otter]

i like the silence though. no communications, only sounds and music. adds to the atmosphere

[fresh flame]

mod 👏 has 👏 matchmaking

[zealous herald]

its not fun if you cant taunt your friends

[mighty spire]

i played the game for the first time, i spent 3 hours playing and neglecting personal responsibilities

very addicting

[thin otter]

yeah, but the mod is only 1v1 if we are talking about the same mod

[fresh flame]

True, I’m hoping to add 4 player matchmaking

[unique tangle]

where can we find the ost for buckshot

[night brook]

pretty sure its actually in the files of the game

[unique tangle]

so I can just make a folder with the songs

[fresh flame]

If you have it on Steam yeah

[night brook]

its in this folder

[idle venture]

Those tracks aren't identical to the ones played in the game, by the way.

They're mixed differently.

[unique tangle]

@night brook I've seen videos where they play the multiplayer mode and I WANT THAT SONG THAT PLAYS IN MULTI

[clever current]

gods drunkiest gambler

[idle venture]

Those will be added when the update comes out.

[night brook]

when it comes out itll probably be in there

[unique tangle]

also matchmaking would be cool in multi

[hazy folio]

how to sign up for beta

if they ar estill open

[night brook]

no

its open beta

read news

[idle venture]

You can't sign up for it, but it'll be available to everyone on Monday.

[hazy folio]

ohhhhh, thanks, sorry im new here

[coarse notch]

how can we get beta multp

[night brook]

read chat

[fierce zealot]

guys

i have the first version of itch io

de multiplayer

will launch on that site?

or only for steam

[night brook]

I think it uses steam stuff for mulitplayer

so I doubt it

[polar berry]

Guys, ow to launch multiplayer? I waaaant to kill my friends

[night brook]

its not out yet

check news

can we make a q&a????

[polar berry]

:(

[night brook]

this has been asked like 5 times in the past hour

[polar berry]

hah

I seen screenshot, and think that it already out.

[zealous herald]

there is

[night brook]

for multiplayer specifically I mean

[zealous herald]

mods don't pin it for some reason

[zealous herald]

Yes that

[indigo hinge]

Do you know how the open beta will work? Just go to Steam and open the game on the 28th and the multiplayer will be available?

[zealous herald]

they will share the key to beta on this server supposedly

[indigo hinge]

oh

thanks

[fresh flame]

Rule number one when joining a Discord: search the general chat to see if your question has already been asked

[indigo hinge]

Well, I searched a lot but I didn't find what the Open Beta process would be like, and given the number of chats that exist on this server it would take a long time, so I thought it would be more practical to ask

[robust gull]

Question. Is multiplayer only steam or steam and itch.io?

[fresh flame]

Oh your message was fine, I think asking how the process works is a fair question

[ionic inlet]

were do I get the multiplayer for BR

?

[robust gull]

It comes out at the end of the month

[fresh flame]

@ionic inlet

[robust gull]

but 28th for discord members

[ionic inlet]

what it said that it was in the discord

oh sorry

[robust gull]

np

[proper creek]

When is buckshot coming to consoles and stuff

[robust gull]

idk

but would be cool

and i dont know much indie games on xbox

[proper creek]

It’s confirmed to get console and mobile ports it’s just unknown when

It’s only confirmed for “late 2024”

[mighty spire]

Issue is back

It ran fine when I ran it in desktop mode. My theory is that because the splash screen for the publisher is in windowed then jumps to full screen it does that

[mental fossil]

I NEED THEM IN SPOTIFY

EEEE

[native tangle]

is buckshott roulette multiplayer beta on october 28?

[chrome wyvern]

pls gift me buckshot

[winter geode]

#│q-and-a message
is there a burner phone nerf?

[zealous herald]

just lost 250k

[sonic wasp]

@buoyant crown Yes you can, 2-4 people. x')

*YouTube Videos gave me the answer, as I asked myself the same question

[pliant willow]

Cant wait to see what the qna answers will be this time

[zealous herald]

have there been other buckshot q&a's?

[fresh flame]

nO

[zealous herald]

would wanna watch them so i dont repeat a question

[winter geode]

Here for people who don't know:

• In Multiplayer, The guys with the masks (The players) are dealers

We play as a dealer

So yaeh

YEAH

yeah

[winter geode]

?

[edgy crane]

who is dealing then

how do they decide who's going to be the dealer for the game

[idle venture]

It's automated. There's a shell loading machine.

[edgy crane]

is that because all players are dealers

oh my god they're playing to find out who is going to be the dealer for the next game.

[idle venture]

We don't necessarily play as the same species as the Dealer. The current running theory is that they're robots built as an approximation of the Dealer. Just a suitable form for playing the roulette.

We take control of those robots remotely.

[idle venture]

In the version of multiplayer content creators got to play, the phone no longer gives you information at 2 shells.

Combined with a larger number of players, it makes the phone a lot harder to use effectively.

It's kind of a nonsensical nerf the way I see it, but who knows. Mike did actual testing, I'm just theorizing.

[native tangle]

what will happen on october 28

[winter geode]

all items are the same "price", it‘s not like the phone is cheaper than the magnifying glass and should be worse

[native tangle]

multiplayer beta for buckshott roulette? october 28

[winter geode]

Yes

[idle venture]

A code will be provided publicly, so that anyone who wants can join the beta test, which will last until the full release.

So, like, 3 days of beta.

[idle venture]

It's totally fine for some items to be less powerful than others, I just feel like the phone didn't need to get any weaker, considering it's less useful by default, when playing against multiple people.

You can also get 4 of them at once in that version.

Which doesn't give you too big of an advantage, but deprives you of other items.

[proud oar]

hello again

[soft night]

Did he? I assumed that the motivation for the nerf was just to make it not be equivalent to a magnifying glass when there are 2 shells

[fresh flame]

But that's super helpful

[idle venture]

I'm assuming that the nerfs were somehow justified by the results of testing.

[dim plume]

guys

[soft night]

It seems like stylistically the magnifying glass is meant to give immediately applicable information while the phone gives indirect info

So by being able to use the phone on 2 shells it kind of encroaches on the mag’s domain

[dim plume]

if I turn on the KSI new song, will the dealer shoot himself?

[fresh flame]

But what if you don't have a mag

[idle venture]

Phone acting as a magnifying glass at the end of the loadout is cool, especially in multiplayer. You have to actually get to that point in the loadout, landing on 2 shells.

[soft night]

SOL

[winter geode]

The phone is already worse than other items, I think it’s in a great spot for the normal mode, because it chains well with other items. But for multiplayer it‘s more like the medicine(which is imo the worst item currently), I also don’t mind it being weaker than other items/clogging up a slot, but removing the one case where it is 100% useful makes it nearly useless and very luck dependent if you get any use from a phone.

[fresh flame]

yeah that's my point

[soft night]

I always use phones at the start of the round in double or nothing

Idk if that’s the best strat but that’s what I do

[idle venture]

Well... Yea. It's DoN. You're playing against one opponent, who acts in a very predictable manner.

It's pretty easy to force the info you get to benefit you.

[soft night]

Also, the phone not telling you the very next shell I think reinforces that phones are intended not to be able to function as a magnifying glass

[idle venture]

I'd actually be fine with that nerf in DoN. It'd make sense there.

It doesn't make sense in multiplayer, based on what I've seen.

[soft night]

I mean if they cap phones in multiplayer so you don’t end up with 5 of them I think it’s fine

[winter geode]

Probably, you have at least a 50/50 chance of getting value from that

[idle venture]

Yea, if they cap phones at 2, then you only miss out on 2 useful items max, per loadout.

[proud oar]

buckshot roulette but you only get beers

[soft night]

Unironically a decent game mode

[proud oar]

the number of beers one gets is also randomized

[idle venture]

Beers only wouldn't be broken or unbalanced in any way, I suppose.

[soft night]

@idle venture idk if you saw but I figured out some theory for the EV of buckshot loadouts

[proud oar]

The shell loadout is still randomized and otherwise unknown

[idle venture]

Not sure if I did see that.

[proud oar]

Maybe cap the random beer number to 1-3?

Dependent on shell amounts?

[soft night]

#│nightclub message

[zealous herald]

if you only get beers then you would just be back to taking complete gambles on whether to shoot yourself or not

as if you had no items

[idle venture]

Interesting.

[winter geode]

What are DoN exclusive items? The newest items?

[soft night]

Adrenaline, phone, pills, inverter

[idle venture]

All of those do appear in multiplayer, except for the pills.

[winter geode]

Why not the pills?

[idle venture]

They're kinda ass, I guess.

[proud oar]

Vanilla Items:
Beer, Cigarettes, Handsaw, Magnifying Glass, Handcuffs

DoN Items:
Adrenaline, Phone, Expired Medicine, Inverter

Multiplayer Items:
Jammer, Remote

[idle venture]

Maybe the real reason is that they can stretch out the rounds too much.

[proud oar]

What about handcuffs?

[idle venture]

Handcuffs are replaced by the Jammer. Pretty much the exact same functionality.

[soft night]

I think this, and the fact that the EV variance of pills outweighs a lot of the other luck in the game and can easily swing the outcome of an entire round

[random dagger]

I'm kind of a Jammer

[proud oar]

I figured that

[idle venture]

Yea, that makes sense.

[proud oar]

MP matches are designed to go fast from what I've seen. Expired Meds drag it all unnecessarily

[glacial ether]

how difficult would it be to port buckshot roulette to consoles?

[idle venture]

No idea. Any devs in chat who have done console ports before? I'm gonna guess we don't have any around.

[proud oar]

I'll take a guess and say that it is about as difficult as translating cursor selection to console

[winter geode]

Probably not too difficult for sp, multiplayer would be as difficult as for itch.io

[idle venture]

That part wouldn't be too hard.

[winter geode]

The game engine supports it

[formal quiver]

how to acitavte double or noughing while on the last stage?

[soft night]

You have to beat the game then take the pills in the bathroom

[idle venture]

When the mode is active, you'll get a very obvious prompt after the final round.

[flat hound]

where is it confirmed?

[vocal raft]

[reef laurel]

Is there any interest in alternate multiplayer gamemodes?

Something to change the way the game works

Kinda like how double or nothing mixed up the single player game a little

Some ideas I had were no items, oops all beer, and a version where there's only one live shell per round(youd have to have no inverters and probably like 2 health so it still goes quickly)

Mabye a version where whoever you shoot gets the next turn

Wether it be blank or live

[zealous herald]

not necessarily gamemodes but just being able to adjust item caps, available items, amount of shells, lives/blanks would do a lot for replayability

[reef laurel]

That's true

[proper creek]

Buckshot q and a

[idle venture]

A rule for only shooting the healthiest players would go hard.

The way the game was played in real life on that one Japanese stream.

[reef laurel]

Some kind of rule to give low health players a slight buff would be good

I feel like only shooting the healthiest player removes quite a bit of decision space, especially for relationships in the game

Coz if someone shoots you, you probably want to shoot them back

[idle venture]

You'd still have plenty of situations in which multiple players will have equally high health. I think it'd be good as an optional setting.

[reef laurel]

That's true

[idle venture]

Because whatever buff you give to the least healthy player might not save them from being intentionally screwed over by everyone else at the table.

[reef laurel]

And when the table is all down to one charge that's when you can really get revenge

[idle venture]

Ye.

[reef laurel]

That would buff the knife and need the ciggarettes

Nerf

Coz now healing makes it more likely that your going to lose that health pretty soon

[idle venture]

Yea, that's true.

Cigarettes will still have their uses. Being one of the healthiest while still being outside of the immediate kill range from a sawn-off isn't too bad.

[reef laurel]

Agreed

And if you get hit by a saw and are down to 1 while most of the table is still at 3 then they'll help you get back in the game

But if the whole table has equal health, healing up will just make you a digger target

[idle venture]

You can also heal multiple charges by using your own cigs and stealing someone else's.

Which makes you significantly harder to kill within that loadout.

[reef laurel]

It makes the ciggarettes more situational but also means you have to be more strategic with when you use them, probably a good thing coz ATM you just smoke them at the start of your turn

[idle venture]

Yep. At the moment cigarettes are always good to use, as long as you're missing any HP or are trying to avoid them getting stolen.

[reef laurel]

I like the rule about aiming at the highest health player

Hopefully there will be some way to add custom rules

[idle venture]

Another one I could think of was to make the adrenaline copy an item from the opponent's side of the table, instead of stealing it. Adrenaline's behavior in full lobbies seems fine, but if you're trying to run a 1v1 lobby, it's pretty awful.

Isn't it already a double barrel 💀

[pliant willow]

No its a single-barrel pump shotgun

[zealous herald]

different shotgun variations would be pretty cool tho

they could be used to mark different gamemodes if those happen

[idle venture]

Half-Life's secondary shotgun fire was a disaster for the gamers. Now people see a single-barrel shotgun and think, "Yeah, this boy could fire two shots at once".

[idle venture]

Possibly because it's a different person every run.

[zealous herald]

not necessarily

[idle venture]

Of course, yea.

[zealous herald]

we dont know if its a new person entering the game each time or if its just video game logic where main character inexplicably gets revived
