Also please avoid pinging the devs unless absolutely necessary
I wish brother I was an SVS guy I couldn’t keep up in PVP
Was mainly talking about the bot ping itself
I was takin people out left and right on land like no other
Do you play TLOPO?
Play what?
The legend of pirates online,
It’s the literal exact same game remade by fans
When pirates online shut down, the devs gave the game files to fans to restart the servers for free
Just like Toontown
so are we going to get another giveaway today or?
I’m curious, why are alpha keys being given away when there are people who signed up for this when they wishlisted the game day one? Tf is goin on
wishlisting the game doesnt make you special in any way
I’m sure it’s randomly selected
@oak garden the game is still alive?
what about Puzzle Pirates? 😏
The system was never 'first come first served' Its been on my wishlist since January. The process is random selection becuase its done through Steam
If they went down the list, the last batch of keys would be probably handed out in 2030
they are being given away to the people who has requested access on steam (wishlisting never increased your chances and neither was it ever said it would)
People who requested access on Steam get chosen randomly
No but you did support it from day one which technically would give you access to the alpha which was the only way to apply for access at the time being a non streamer/content creator
500-1000 at most, but most hang in the same servers so you’re always around people
PVP is still huge
Hey maybe do a giveaway that your NA audience can participate in. Its work ours right now in the US. Or maybe you just want your easy to please audience for your "playtest"
lmao what?
I don’t think English is their first language
that wasn't the only giveaway
Also Wishlisting does not equal requesting access.
Good idea, forwarded.
thats it, im copypasting my comment from yesterday, chat forced my hand
Hello, im an entitled manchild, and as such im assuming the fact that i dont have an invite means the devs hate me personally. Not to worry tho, im sure complaining in discord and throwing some threats around will fix the issue immediately
Hey maybe put in less venom towards a request for free access to content?...
Nah I did both and have for some time
Really killing the vibe of this game for me I’m being completely honest
Then its exactly the same as everyone else who requested access. Everyone is on a list and its random selected.
I'm gonna be a thief here...
Hello, im an entitled manchild, and as such im assuming the fact that i dont have an invite means the devs hate me personally. Not to worry tho, im sure complaining in discord and throwing some threats around will fix the issue immediately
wish I could pin that
my guy is 2 posts away from asking to speak with the manager
Would you rather is was 'first come first served'? Just for some nerd to make 50 accounts and take up loads of spaces to sell later? Because Ive seen that happen before
Valid.
Man it is salty in here this morning.
By having it as a random selection its more fair
They're still dishing keys out as well, you could still get lucky and they'll do more giveaways
No one’s speaking with the manager, chill
What are you talking about? Is work hours in my country as well and I still managed to win the giveaway.
Aye, the sea is salty.
Hi everyone 😉
I mean, he wasnt exactly the most polite about it. But the giveaway was 6:30 a.m. my time. When many people are getting ready/driving to work. Not exactly browsing discord.
I was just being lazy and sleeping in since im on vacation just playing devils advocate
Well, first come first serve would have favored the people who have been following and showed interest to the game from day one. Just feels like you all posted a video saying Alpha! Submit access now like 2 days before it came out, ppl that weren’t on top of it found out 2 days before and submitted and got access to the game before we all have just silly that’s all
People forget they announced more giveaways today. Won't be all at same time. Cmon guys it ain't rocket sience
Stumbling on something first and requesting special access for that is very entitled my man
but you new on discord, while others been on the discord server for longer supporting the game, instead of just clicking a button on steam and forgetting about it.
That’s like inviting a ton of people to a house party and then only letting in like 60 and shutting the door. Like don’t advertise it that way then that it’s some open alpha
I completely understand if youve been here longer than others it seems unfair that someone joins yesterday for example and already has a key. Dw I get that. BUT our focus is on everyone as a whole, and the best way we can ensure things are just as equal for everyone is to do a random selection. Its done via steam
It's not even early access or anything, it's a limited early build of an alpha playtest
they never said everyone will get into alpha
Discord doesn’t make you an early supporter of the game I’m sorry
Agreed. Like damn guys this is supposed to be a happy time not this salty
clicking request access on steam doesn't either nether does wishlisting, i'm sorry.
Did you purchase some kind of supporter pack? How exactly did you support other than steam follow .-.
Oh I thought that’s how we gained access to it? Or did that change?
No. Youre using the same analogy someone did yesterday. Ill repost the same one I used too.
It has been advertised as an Alpha. It has been said in this discord numerous times prior to the test starting there are limited spaces. I really dont know how else I can reason that. To use your own analogy, its like inviting an entire town to help build your house and then you being disappointed that its not fully built and decorated
no, that is how you request access, not how you get it, It is random who get access and they been upfront about it since day one that not everyone would get in.
day 2 and you're still complaining about the exact same thing bro, do you really need to play this unfinished game THAT BAD, like is there actually just nothing else to do?
A game on Steam that is wishlisted gains more visibility. The higher it ranks among wishlisted games, the more visibility it receives. Wishing for a game on Steam helps support the game.
Oh I’ve got plenty to do. I’m just stating the fact that keys are being given away as a raffle basis to people over people that have requested access
Bingo
You might still get in, be patient and stop killing the vibes
they are doing both?
the giveaways are just nice extras
Sounding like idol group fans demanding first access to the show before the show is even going on without even paying 💀
complaining about something that is being offered willingly and for free is beyond entitlement, its straight up weirdo behaviour
Its always a raffle anyways when devs do their playtest access through steam
First come first server is almost never how they do it
Oh some do
I've spent the past day thinking your pfp was that dark edgy sonic meme and am just now realizing its not
no one i ever heard of has done it like that.
Thats a really good way to ensure bots fill your playtest
then you find their keys being sold online lol
EXACTLY
Lmao, it's the main character for the manhwa The Greatest Estate Developer
again, this is the first test where there is no NDA, this is the first experience like this for the devs and it blew up way more than they expected, this test is not over and there is still chance to get in and Im sure soon there will be more test with way more access, this isn't a "now or never" situation, I don't get this sense of urgency some people express as if this is the only game in the world
bot accounts getting into the playtest and then being sold ** is why first some first serve is very dumb
I thought I’d wait out the first day, sure iron out the kinks everyone up and arms for access, stress testing the servers. Devs were super busy yesterday. But then when I signed it today to see what was what and keys access was being given away at random draws on disc over dealing with the EA play test submissions through stream that’s what threw me
brother, the steam request is also random draws
What youre saying is entirely backwards. Random draws in the discord full of active users is way better than random draws from the steam playtest sign up
literally nothing changed from yesterday
Some people who have been guaranteed access for months still haven't got in, they're not kicking up a stinker about it
What don’t you understand?
and is constantly giving out new invites on steam, that hasn't stopped.
This is where they are most likely to find true supporters
Its legit going thrue steam tho and discord is just extra?? + Steam is still a raffle
Hey mods do you need some coffee?
I need a key, im on my knees begging
Let me try and make this as clear as I can.
Wishlisting a game helps it gain more visibility on Steam, allowing the game to be seem by a wider audience.
Wishlisting is NOT the same as Requesting Access
Requesting Access puts your name on a list with everyone else who requested access.
Invites are sent by STEAM.
Steam takes the entire list of poeple who have requested access and randomly chooses who to send the invites to.
It is NOT a raffle or Lottery held by the Devs.
Its is not a first come first served system.
It is meant to be fair by giving everyone who is interested the same chance of being selected.
It has been said many many times that slots are limited because of Server Load.
It is an Alpha test.
There have already been problems with the servers.
Devs are rolling out the invites via Steam slowly to ensure no overloads. This is also done to ensure any major bugs that are found do not affect thousands of players all at once.
what does kick up a stinker means?
☕ 🥃
Thank you
Means lashing out, causing trouble
I think that guy just can't admit hes not making any sense lol
It is going through steam you are all correct. But when the alpha play list trailer came out they marketed it as if everyone was getting access to the game, sign up and wishlist on steam yadda yadda. Welll…. Here everyone is, sitting in a chat room online crossing their fingers
guys stop kicking up sinkers
Gl devs and gl all
If you ever see an alpha trailer never assume that lol
I’m out
i wish i could revoke people access to the internet man
Alpha does not = open beta
peace!
So uh....pirates are pretty cool eh guys? Who's your favorite pirate?
While I usually dont like ganging up on people, man some people...
Im a bartholomew roberts man myself
have all the keys gone out now? or are they still coming out in waves?
Oh yeah and sly
That said, the discord raffles are an amazing way to supplement the steam invites with active community members. I saw that the admin was having issues with doing more due to message limits? There has to be a more flushed out bot that can help with that.
Still coming out in waves
Still coming out
as sam porter bridges said "we should not have connected"
heyyyyy
nice!
Hold up a minute
Enjoy matey
don't flex like this bro 😆
Bruh, get the contest keys dished out first
Man hes just flexing on us like this
Haha
Dear Keeper of the Sacred Pirate Keys,
I come to you not as a noble sailor, but as a broken, shipwrecked soul — on my knees (figuratively... okay, literally), begging for a key to the pirate game.
nope
I wish all of you the best of luck.
ill ship you a case of rum for a key
Charlotte De Berry
or Kahlua if you're a cofee guy 😂
Or Jacquotte Delahaye
I would happily sell my copy of the game right now for Something strong
Unique choice, I like it.
Unfortunatly I cannot
of course of course... pms open
how can i get accepted for playing? i submitted before the game was alpha 😦
And wouldnt tbh. I enjoy it too much
be lucky
wait you got a copy of the game before me even tho i shared the trailer to some friends? that is so unfair
the game will be free to when it'll be released?
I know, I joke. I'm very excited to try it out. Must be exciting to be part of a team like this. How'd you get into it?
should be yes
The discord winners got in before the Steam contest winners, how dare they /s
no garantee it will
Hello there. Welcome. Most comprehensive info is in the pins
any infos how many keys they give away so far
last number I saw, Steam invites were over 1500
1500 at the start of the day (eu time)
we need 100.000 not 1500
You can monitor the player count via any of those steam charts, hopefully they are able to expand more soon
you are so right bestie, better start renting those datacenters yourself to help
I also saw somewhere that they intend to leave this test open for a month or so? If that's the case we don't need to freak out nearly as much lol
4 weeks. So all the panic about not getting in on day 1 is a bit silly
Maybe have that posted more often somewhere, people are used to weekend tests right now
lots of big ones have been happening
But where else can I seethe and rage at people online about my inferiority conplex
tell mere to deposit the money
And it says on the website that right now as the game is, theres about 30-ish hours of content. So, 4 weeks of time to play around 30 hours. I dont understand impatient people.
I understand excitement, but throwing a tantrum on not getting in day 1 or 2. Weird
Its posted in the steam page xD
also lets be real, anyone complaining about not being invited day 1 would also have a menty b when the servers crash or a bug brick their character
I just came here to say that I was waiting for a game like Crosswind for 35 years now
Also i didnt mean that to sound snarky but a lot of people seem to not know that
@surreal sierra Are all the contest keys getting sent out today or are they staggered over the week?
did ye see Ahoy?
It should be the default answer to "where's my key"
Ahoy wont be as good, too much "realism" focus
erh sid meyers pirate?
Sea of Thieves is too casual
Are you referring to the tag contest a few months ago?
Yeah
for real chad bro
only Pirate game i accept is AssCreed Black flag
got nothing on sid meyers pirates
isnt ahoy the one that tries to picture the east india company as the good guys?
Trust me it has been. We've been answering that same question the past 3 days because people come and ask instead of read for 2 minutes
Bam responded to a question about this, give me a sec to find it
Sid meyers was mid for me tbh
arh so historical accurate
How's the Melee Combat tho?
fair
wow!! I won the giveaway, amazing!!! 😻
Congrats
Looks good, check out some of the streamers in content creators.
Thank you! I was like “no way I’ll get it”
Put the lottery on too
20/800 :0 someone do the chance
The magical, mythical key that will let me hoist the anchor and return to the pixelated sea I was born to sail.
whats that 😮
Hey Guys, is there a way to increase the Chance for a Key? BR
20/800 is better than the steam
2% I think
Here you go. Twas at the bottom of the Alpha dev post on Steam
increase your luck (actualy answer: no) join giveaway on discord or stream if and when they cme
I am a big streamer, I have 100 trillion followers I should get a key 👍🏻
ok, thx 🙂
yeah well i have 101 trillion followers so i get your key
apply for a content creator key then
so how often do you need to repaet yourself lol
Good Night all! Good luck on next giveaway!
Every 5 minutes
Darn you
every couple of minutes?
its impossible, there is only 60 trillion people on earth
Every 10 min on average of a 24 hour day
should have a discord bot that just posts that every 5 min
10? God I'd kill for it to be a 10 min break.
many people enjoy my stream from 2 accounts simultaneously
sounds fun lol
the next giveaway i shall tell you guys imma win it so dont bother joining
Just mute discord and go to sleep haha
Well, to be fair I signed up for it. And Having done community management in the past this is old hat to me
you gonna win all 20 keys?
I was thinking on average ya know? Considering some people will be asleep and such and it dies down at night.
is there multiplayer in this test?
yes
nah 15 keys i shall let other humans win
Yup
there is 3 player coop
yeah take a nap what could happen in 10 mins
welcome
All I want — no, all I need — is a key to this blessed pirate game. My hands are trembling. My parrot has abandoned me
What i said to myself when I slept in from 6:00-7:00
begging will not increase your chances even one bit
you will play it at some time (unless you really unlucky)
Sea of THieves could have been big but they wanted a casual game for carebears with no progression, just empty grind
yea ik im just fu*ing around hehe
Technically we will all play at some point. Just might not be till release
I got a key in the discord giveaway, they’ll still reach out in DMs or nah? saw a message saying he was getting times out
stuff can happen between now and then that prevents you from ever playing anything ever again
OH RIGHT I COMPELTELY FORGOT. Hol up I need to find the image
I hope you all remember how hyped you were when their monetization model comes out to support these beautiful devs
I was gifted this feller when I worked at a bar. He’s been watching over my desk for about a year now. I still havnt given him a name. Suggestions anyone?
Bob
parrot mcparrotface
it will probably be one time purchase
that sounds slightly threatening 👀
Mr. Mimic
Hmmm...good point. Unless you believe in an afterlife I guess.
Though even then your h.e. double hockey sticks might just be eternally waiting for a key lol
It will be free on release. They're looking at other monetization methods
i wont pay if at a 70$ price tag but im on board for 60 nd below
We're looking over the horizon for more scallywags entering the Crosswind Waters. Wish you all the best and look forward to hearing how much fun you having once ye get yer feet wet.
not my intention.
Joe biden since he is still there
Existential, the crisis parrot
i wouldnt mind paying a few bucks to have the game stay away from skins for income etc
where can apply for creator keys?
why do creators have priority?
i guess because its free marketing?
because the devs own the game and they say so
I wouldnt mind that tbh. Its a way to engage with the game if you want. I doubt they'll ever have pirate goku or anything. So im fine paying 4 bucks for a cool hat.
@small sigil #│game-updates message
pinned post in content creator page
wait no pirate goku? im out of here
is there any chance that the people who won the giveaway in March will be getting keys today?
its closed 😦
Do you just have a file of all these screenshots ready to go?
will i get accepted im a small content creator?
Rummy
(or the name of that drink that uses pink pirate rum (i dont think i am allowed to say it here))
pink (lady parts)
Maybe pirate vegeta, which is better imo
Not a bad idea
yep
yea - i love when gear's appearance has meaning or gives indication - but i would prefer skins (on theme, non immersion breaking ones) than other bad monetization
Smart man
And if not, I know where most things are so I can find them with relative ease
you could use windows clipboard too
whens this next giveaway?
Content creator here, ready to set sail — just missing one tiny thing: the key!
I’ll make pirate content so good, even the parrots will subscribe
we dont know yet
Exactly. Like it doesnt hurt to have it. Pay 4 bucks to have a cool sail. Few bucks here and there.
i miss all the notifications cuz im in USA sleepin... then look at the playtest charts, 100 players lol
they most likely also make events for the US time zones. (though nothing garanteed)
I too was asleep. But well get to play at some point 🙂
does that mean today? next week? trying to gauge to make plans for the up coming weekend and holiday week
yeah at these numbers and rates... expect beta or release 6+ months from now
you shold be seething man, you missed the only chance ever to play this game
I think there's some streamers doing giveaways too right?
i dont want to snitch but i overherad the devs planning the giveaways specifically when you were sleeping
how many people are in the playtest?
Unfortunately only the one sending the messages knows for sure. However I speculate it'll be soon since the contest winners names are known. Might be today, might be tomorrow. I unfortunatly do not know
2025 is just the year of waiting.
waiting for seas 2 of a series. (which was completly and utterly accidently leaked by the lead animator to be released in 2026)
waiting for several games to be released (either planned for end of 2025 or early 2026)
waiting for new season of another game. which i have gatehr all content in for now.
wait wait wait....
most recent number is 1500 invites have been sent
thanks, I appreciate the info
its difficult to stay in the present and enjoy life as it is.
We're doing the best we can with the info we have. There's only so much we the Mod team can do other than relay info and try to keep things chill and respectful
wait he doesn't has access?
I have my copy
I just prefer to spend my time right now helping out the people here
i think you shold give us 30minutes a day to keep things heated and disrespectful

Morning Good Mornfternevening, all! How goes the playtest??
he has to sleep at some point
I assumed you didnt have a key since youre spending so much time here. Or you guys have like a rotation or something lol
I think were all hoping to find out lol
lol yes
but good morning
When is the Creator-Form Open again?
no, we come and go in chat as we need/want to.
not to good i need access xD
Ah, yes, the good ol' conundrum of needing access to the play test in order to play test
So...youre just sacrificing for us. 🥲
Dude ill litterally test your game for free just give me a key
yea im just joking man, ill be patient
^^ We're basically here on a volunteer basis so it's sort of "rotation" based on when we're available xD
Dont even have to pay me 😉
Need keys before Mechabreak release,..
Oh I knows it! I was joking back 🙂
Based on watching streamers, the test is going well 🙂
wait you guys getting paid?
yes, in virtual rum
yea but only to sit in the discord they dont pay for the actual testing part
In a way. Again, Ive done community management plenty in the past. I sort of prefer to know accurate and comprehensive info is being made readily available to people.
can i have gin instead?
no
but but
thast it, minus -10 virtual rum for you
A true mod.
wait minus -10 means i just gave you 10 rums, damn
as long as you can figure it out.
oh wait double negative i see..
damn missed the giveaway on twitch too just my luck today. cant make much more of this pain.
any1 wanna trade some gin for some rum? i hav 10 virtu rum (or bitrum)
All I have is tech-ila
Eiih...
whaaat i didnt know of one on twitch
Yeah I got my game. OOOOOoooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo spooky
Gratz!
bruh
hey come back here and moderate
Yo, Ho haul together, hoist the colours high
Loads into game..."starving"
As soon as u tab out im gunna spam or something
Playing this game is fun, but I wish I could invite a friend to play with me. 😢
Seems to be a running theme. Whenever I respawn Im starving. reload game, starving too
you tried to eat?
Better eat something, you are starving..
yihaaa
Swing the Hammer!!
Well thats the fix yes I know. But as said, its whenever I respawn or die. back to starving
oh wait better walk out the way
that called aging and is perfectly natural.
It is the most beautiful mornin in a hundred year, and i am living.
What is the MAX for Playing together?
3
4
man this game looks sick
it is not contagious though so no worries about it being sick.
So tell me please Devs, how the FK streamers got 100+ keys for giveaways while we here wait for 1??? Is it even Fair?
watched phuzzybond play several hours of it yeaterday
here we go again
why should i watch some noname to me just to test a game?
Giving out several 1000 keys over 200k people isnt done within 5 minutes. Giving codes to streamers makes everything go faster
I do not belive that lol thats complete BS
Thats up to you
i know right
Then request access via storepage and wait. And they are not obliged to explain what they do. If you dont like it just wait.

As usual, same over and over again, streamers get privilege first
which makes sense
no its not
Generally how it goes lol
It's a bit of a no brainer
Streamers = Advertising. Its actually pretty simple
Not many titles much less indie ones go this route
you do know you could stream right
Then become one so you don't have to be jealous anymore..
Don't want to.
😂
Seen it all now

It's not about jealous lol those guys 99 % of them cant even handle hammer in their hands wtf u talking about.
Well mostly because i dont want to
litteraly lsot for word.
that response was just. i've read alot but that...

Fellow VOC enjoyer
We needed a good laugh
Finaly one!!!
Today's been a wild ride
Can I pls get access pretty plssssssss
My man thought he sounded so tough there
I hooe you did, about my “i dont want to” command
Yesterday was worse
I would totally stream Crosswind if I could but I'm afraid my PC won't handle both
Literally made me laugh aloud
So like… just asking for a friend but what if one was to just get crosswinds logo tattooed on their chest and walk around shirtless with a pirate theme costume
Hopefully 3rd day's the charm and everything is peaceful

Fingers crossed I get my key tomorrow as well
they would be banned before the game even got released xP
Are they still accepting people for the Alpha
Yup
Yes
Your name would forever hence be 'Bill Board'.
Jokes aside do not do that
Iv been called worse tbf
🤷🏼♂️
You're not my mother 😠
Well let me rephrase. Your body, you want to get a tattoo, go for it. We wont tell you to or not.
however
That’s gotta be some key worthy advertisement
I got crosswind merch, without there bein crosswind merch. Isnt that advertisment?
I wouldnt get a tattoo with the expectation of getting a key.
and besides, a permenant tattoo for an alpha test key? Doesnt seem like a fair trade off
How long is the Alpha for
If i get a Jeezee tattoo can I have one
how about i get a key with expectation of getting a tattoo?
Shouldn't of gotten one I guess..
I mean it isn’t a expectation as much as a aspiration to so to speak
I will trade the last ice cream sandwich in my freezer for an Alpha Key. Final offer. 
Klondike bar???!
Done deal. You want my whole steam account too? Its got the game already installed and all
I’d do some shady stuff for icecream ngl
Nah, too poor for the name brand stuff sadly.
lets keep it pg13.
Fair, but I am obligated to say theres no guarantee of receiving one in the event
I'd sell my firstborn for a key
I didn’t specify what type of shady stuff 🙄
just taking precaution
Wise given the individual
I mean, sure, why not. Throw in your car keys and ill even unwrap it for you.
wahts next you also gonna eat it for him?
Could be hes going to have a nice picnic under a tree.
Could be a nice nap under a umbrella on the beach
Endless possibilities
mdday to yall
Anyway. Time to go towards linkinpark, seeya tomorrow chat!
Mornin
Be safe! Jam for meeeee! 🤘
If he plays his cards right.
south park nice
I really need to go to the store and get dinner. Can I trust yall to behave while Im gone?
Lowkey the substitute for the modern currency
damn, got up to buy launch and missed another entitled manchild 😦
Depends if your buying my dinner as well
i hope so
Probably not but we'll try pops
can you really take that chance?
good
yes
good lad
nope
Fiiiine I’ll be good 😬
I have went ahead and drew a hammer on my hand incase anyone else gets upset. We got this.
He’s on point
Don't let it fool you, he smells of old sponge
No he said pick up a hammer nit draw one
I signed up for Streaming, hopefully will get accepted. 🙂
love it and love the guinea pig episode
Oh god, I guess I should have picked up a book every now and then too. 
maybe than you could read at mach 10 speed
Lowkey what if we just all ban one another and he comes back to utter silence
No no no you dont need books to be a REAL MAN laying bricks in the sun destroying your back like MEN.
Who would be the final person.
I'm feelin piratical
I’ll be on watch
Giveaway bot 💀
Y'all behavin'?
ys
Yeeeeaaa 👀
Yessum
eveyr shysh he is here.
im not
cya
Ight he’s gone… who’s gonna sell a key for my social security number?
Crap he’s back!!
Actually before I do. Suggestions on what I should get for dinner?
Steaks
Food?
It’s summer.. grill food.
mac and cheese
with lime rum
i had short ribs,, delicous..
Are we cooking or doing fastfood.
i am the bringer of answers-.
Probably going to just get something I can put straight in the oven
Almost all of my kitchen equipment is packed away for transit
That’s not food that’s baking
Sesame chicken, Fried Rice, Crab Rangoon, Egg rolls.
who wants lime grog
i would still argue that baked goods are a type of food.
Food is forged in the flames of a grill pit!
A nice pizza? Perhaps a rotisserie chicken? If you want to be crazy maybe you could do some pizza rolls?
baking pan?
I’m dead
Hmm, good suggestions. Ill see what I find at the store
sounds like its gonna be short ribs
Going to be honest, I just read my last door dash order.
Argue all you please. Ovens are for baking. Cooking takes place on a flame pit 😂
I’ll die on that mountain
Im telling you guys. Rotisserie chicken is where its at.
here the recepie for grog
You can have you mountain. Ill be on my bigger mountain that soup isnt food
If the oven is a gas oven, then, do tell me the difrenence it would be to use a gas grill
Mans got a point..
Is a pizza oven just a charcoal grill?
yes
if the oven is a gas oven youd be gassin your food
Well a grill doesn’t use gas. It uses coals, or a form of wood.
Im not finding much flaw here
True grill does anyways
you profile pic would say otherwise.
This is food!! That looks fire!
yeah like when you order pizza from a place that says "oven baked" but the oven is just electric XDDD
Valid. But unrecognized
Pfp doesnt match
I mean the pfp is more reference to the company name but nevertheless valid point
do wish we had more english streamers to show off the game though. Seems like mostly foreign language streams on twitch
Likely due to timezones
and such i assumed stuff, sure charcoal or briquettes are the right way of doing it.
petrol in a fire extinguisher with a lighter on a stick = flamethrower
but bread is food, and baked. (to get back to the first point)
baked potato is a food, and well.. is also baked...
Tbf… if it’s over any form of flame it’s acceptable. First time I seen one of ya cooking steaks in any other means imma question said individuals principles in life
I cannot wait to try this game out
nabend
I have a question I've asked a few times on streams but havent gotten an answer: Does crafting pull from local chests or only inventory?
Ngl I know some dudes that spend time in culinary schools that this would cause a trigger moment.
I love it for that.
I live in an apartment with electric stove 😦 cant have BBQ. What do
It appears to pull from inventory of chests. From what I've seen on streams
Cave man find rocks, build pit, start fire… make food.
My father is a Pastry Chef, I grew up ticking him off lol
In...min my apartment
buy a bbqe and use it outside the building
cool I couldnt tell myself
Can't have one on my deck :/
you do know outside is bigger than your deck?
Do it outside and if you get caught run away and blame your neighbor? 
like outside outside not your balcony
Hey.. I visited a reservation once and they had a fire pit in the middle of a double wide. Sounds to me like the limitation is your imagination. Gotta want it.
I am on summer vacation from work. I will not leave my house unless I HAVE to.
you want food?
say it
I just had food (cereal) and my wife makes me dinner 🙂
ok gas stove or ev stove?
so close....
Please?..
Electric burner
but...but... thats exactly when ppl go outside 😄 not that i dont understand you. i would prolly do the same
(" i dont want to ")
damn
ima yoink that
Let's ask the real questions here.... what kind of cereal? 
Store brand fruity pebbles
Ngl cinnamon life hits different then the rest
i have a point of order. whens the next giveaway lol
when shal jeezee be back
No clue
Dyno bites?
between now and 26days from now
20 mins?
Fruity Dino bites yeah xD
im dead
Hold up.. we only down to 26 tell release?!
Heck yeah 
nah this alpha
Till end of alpha test
kmao
Don’t do that to me
2026
brb
Late* 2026 is whats been being said
I mean… we could just skip to 26 days left.
isn't late 2026, still 2026?
Yeah but so is January 1st. Which if the game drops December 30th 2026 is still a year difference
I mean from a manufacturing standpoint 11/12 of 26 in some instances is tech 27.
true but then we should be talking fiscal years and that a whole other measurement
so we get crosswinds befor gta 6
Please tell me it’s not metric
Potentially.
prolly
sorry im form Europe.
the game is actually not releasing because piracy is illegal, the project is cancelled
I’m sorry too
is there any way to unbeach my boat
He knows too much
You could sink it.?
re-he-he-eally?
start global warming
melt ice cap
raise the water levels.
now you unstuck
B.e.a.Utiful
From what I've seen you can call your boat to different areas so maybe run down the beach and summon your boat?
Swim to your merm.. oh sorry, wrong game.
Reverse.
Or exit it and re summon it with K
cheers fellas
my key, where?
its gone.
Got stolen by pirates.
I got hungry, sorry.
ive been quite enjoying the game so far, cant wait to play it with my mates if they ever get access too
Enjoy it for us brother.
iv missed out in key giveaways 3 times so far on twitch.... this.... this is just cruel and unusual punishment
Builds character
Watch twitch then? I didnt even know they had keys to give out.
yup
well its killing me so
Except cancer
Well get to play eventually.
;ies
lies
And Diabeties...and...alot of other stuff
Everything has to be so literal 🤦🏼♂️😂
GIVE ME ACCESS
I mean. Games gotta release at some point. So you can play then.
you dont know this
I just had ptsd of Atlas reading that
maybe the simulation ends
Hahahahaha everytime I hear "blackhole" I have flashbacks
Then I think playing this game is the last of our worries
Or maybe it begins
Nice
nah still priority #1
What's funny is my phone keeps buzzing for emails and I shed a small tear when I see it isn't Crosswind related 🤣
GIVE ME ACCESS
same!
Same. I started unsubscribing to many companies because I was getting annoyed
Lol
@urban spear press K
Don't worry Swab. I already helped him 😎
It's all good I can be patient and wait but the slight excitement always in hope of being accepted still shows it's face a little haha
I mean, it gives you something to be excited about lol.
Yup
i wanna play with a friend 😢
@kind zenith just catchin up on the long chat lol
Been watching Seaweavers stream for a while now
and ty mate
i want to play with myself lol
i want to play only
Make a new friend here 🙂 post in the looking for group chat
lmao
Still hoping to get access 🤞
access plz 🙏
We all are my friend...we all are
What's more pirate a wooden mug or a metal mug?
Would love to group up with some people if I'm able to get in eventually
RIP for having a job and can’t sit in front of the PC all day and get I. On Steam Key giveaway. Sad
a glass bottle.
Ya'll talking about getting access and I am just sitting here wondering what JeeZee found for dinner.
that next episode.
Well...its for a costume on a cruise. Don't think I can bring a random glass bottle xD
Im guessing rotisserie chicken
they dont sell a bottle of rum you can peel the sticker off from?
I have both a wooden and fired clay tankard
Can't bring it on the cruise 😦 no outside liquor.
From when I made grog a few weeks ago
Hadn't considered clay
again "they" dont "sell" a bottle of rum you can peel the sticker off from?
I dont know if I can buy it by the bottle. I was going to just bring a mug for pirate day so I can dump my drinks from the bar in it.
yeah, i would go for wooden.
In use it from hot drinks like my tea and occasionally coffee
Theres a ceramics class at thr school i work at. When were back in session im totally making a pirate mug
or diamond encrusted golden mug. if you succesful
Not that successful. But im sure I can get a cheap fake one xD
I uhmm.
I havnt left the house yet because I forgor I put all my clothes in the washing

not sure how this would prevent you.. physically...
pirates dont wash their clothes
We've been here SLAVING AWAY at being good temp mods and you haven't left yet?!?
I watched a video on the product last night while I'm awaiting my turn. Holy hell. You guys really did it. It seems like you're delivering exactly on what you've promised thus far. And I love the valheimy feel of the entirety of the mechanics.
That's it, it is RIOT time.
Release the edgelords!
In my defence Ive spent my time packing away more of my stuff for the move. Ive been productive
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH
Well...at least your being productive
oh okay, not riot yet guys pack it up
if you request access, is it guaranteed?
How dare you bamboozle us. We all thought you were getting food, but instead, you were watching us without attire?! 
No read pins
no
Wait a minute
Well, when you say it like that I sound sound like some kind of weirdo 
NO of course not. I was still wearing my shorts and shirt
Wait til he starts talking about his cutlass. 🤣🤣
Anyone know if they are going to hand out any more keys today?
ay no
Slowly over time read pins
To be fair. I typed like 3 iterations of that and that was the least weird sounding.
Where can i read pins?
In the "pinned" section of the channel. Though im now seeing the messages about it being released over time is not in the pins xD
I'm not sure exactly how or what I will be rping as in Crosswinds
are there any other choices beside being a filthy pirate?
We won't tell you haw bad JeeZee said it was lol
another sad day it seems
Mods, can we get a pinned message of answers to common questions so we can tell people to just read the pins plz?
You can technically "RP" as whatever you want
Just will look like a pirate
I want to maybe go a navy route
@kind zenith people will still ask - There is an FAQ - and there is a wiki in progress
I dint think alot of cosmetics are in atm. But they will probably be releasing fancyware
I wanna build a naval base
I want to play your game, please help, give me the key to the alpha test)
To answer no the cosmetics are not the focus at the moment - There will be many of them later on and they will address it when it is time.
yeah i mean its just hard to RP as a respectable sailor, while you plunder. 😄
Alright IM headed out to the store for real this time. Anyone want anything?
I know the FAQ exists, but a pinned message for quick answers would be helpful. Like "play test is 4 week, keys given by lottery, theyre given slowly over time. It is at devs discretion when keys are released" etc etc
mah key.
🍿 🍻 Waiting for next giveaway.
...
I guess I shouldve expected that. Thats on me
Rotisserie chicken
@kind zenith JeeZee has been doing pinned messages for months and people still will not look at the pinned messages - they want live answers lol It helps sure, but isn't always the solution as most ignore it.
Fair enough. Ill just tell people to read FAQ then lol.
I need to go to bed. Ya'll have fun. 
It's just first 2 days of launch things will settle down a bit as more get in and we will see what guides pop up.
Need some amuse bouche.
Im just trying to streamline the helpfulness i can provide lol.
I think once Im home and had something to eat I will stream some of my game in the VC if people want to come along to chat or something
Im no Captain Falcore though be warned
well a game just got patched so im off the discord for a while
Sounds like a fun time! I unfortunetly have a group projects thing here soon 😦
If only you were NA I would hop in on stream just to meet you in Tortuga
Bro I aint even got off the starting island lmao
Oh........
To busy being a mod
And here I am about to get the bigger boat to flex thinking I needed it
Hey I'm doing my job too!
True true.
i propose you promote me to mod therefore allowing you to indulge in the gameplay
When is the next giveaway?
Jokes on your jee likes doing mod stuff
Unknown
well in that case then he should give me his key then ill indulge xD
Jokes on you he wants to be able to flex on us
this seems like a have a cake and eat it moment
I hearby dub you....||normal chatter||
^^he agrees
Its like a wedding cake. You save the top then eat the rest so you always have your wedding cake, but you also got to est it
Do I? Did you read it?
its like a turduckin.. but with cakes
I dub myself (gold name) Davidofthefire
Exactly
is this where im supposed to be honest or sarcastic..
Nickname changed to Davidofthe(goldname)fire
Amazing
Class
they dont make movies like they used to
Im here for the general chat at this point.
Better?
its like the view.. but pirate centered. I want to look away.. but i cant.
@fast orchid as a certified goober i slept through the steam key giveaways 😭
Bambino make the winners dm you instead so you dont get timed out for the giveaways
jokes on you im always dressed up
Woops
I cant say much. Im literally still in my jammies
Nice try I'm Kitted
crap hes one too
Flex
i was refering to the mod leaving for food and apparently doin laundry
lowkey was puzzled how you changed his name.. makes sense.
Who needs food, I have rum
just got steam access ty ty
AY! I was wearing. My shorts and a t shirt.
Grats, see you on the seas!
didnt that guy say he had got it like an hour ago?
yea i got it like 45 minsa go
And i am currently out and about. Weather is lovely
Man graphics on Tortuga look insane
what is a baboo ji
that does look like lovely weather
now show how it looks on your character
Chasing a ship so I gotta post fast
the jacket's nice
doesnt even have a tricorn hat.
Still no playtest 🥀
Have you seen my profile picture?
If anyone here has access I’d love to hear your thoughts, as well as performance
I guess it does fit your model pretty well
man I REALLY hope they will add vanity slots or any way to customise existing stuff (like changing colour of clothes)
customization will be added later. I am sure they will make transmog or something akin to it.
is this just you speculating or is this confirmed
It's literally my hat without the flames
because cosmetic options in games with character creator are mega important to me, if thats true then Im very hyped
speculation based on what mods have said about adding customization later.
should be hyped regardless.. Endless possibilities here
considering that transmog is one of the main methods of customization it is the most likely option imo
Every game should have vanity slots, but I'm also only wearing 1 of 2 end game gear sets, the other has a tricorn
yea esp in a game like this
I am sure they will have something. You cant have a pirate game without sick drip. It just wouldnt make sense.
I really hope a colour wheel for clothing is considered at some point, being able to change colours of clothes in a game with multiplayer and public hubs would add so much personality for everyone
I believe that was one of the monetization items mentioned in the FAQ . They mentioned "vanity" as one of the potential ways so I am sure there will be paid for items. But I also am sure bosses and such will drop cool looking stuff.
that would be cool, even just having like a "dyeing" station with a recipe for dyes would work well.
ok i suppose i can deal with that 
earnable dyes would make sense
I won the first giveaway a few months ago, I told him to send a PM to a Hisahisa Steam account? What should I do? Has anyone managed to talk to him yet?
like a sea front hub would be neat
just chillin on the docks by your boat doin pirate shenanigans
with fellow pirates doin shenanigans
I am sure they will have some sort of dock at tortuga or something to hangout at. Though you will be limited to 3(?) people on your own server so. Yee...
oh
I think they just a touch busy getting to who they can, you just gotta have a bit of patience
i guess i missed that bit up until now
@fast orchid thk
Food acquired. En route home
yeah your home world can only host I think 3 people. Then you can go to main ports (tortuga) and hangout with more people. So I am sure they will have a port there you can show off your ship and what not.
send pics when you arrive.
Oh hey @knotty topaz You might like my new signiture drink in Crosswind

My dm
My dms 
AH you beat me to it
if you get a key through a giveaway or something like that you can probably redeem it through steam "activate a product" option. If you are randomly selected from the list of people on steam your account will automatically have it avaiolable in your library
Thats how I did it
Just saying.... Marketting campaign....
🎶 Do you suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome?
😬 Hiding farts at concerts? Holding back the wind at parties?
Introducing... Crosswind 🌬️
Where the air flows free and no one judges.
Say goodbye to discomfort — and hello to freedom.
Crosswind: Let it out. Live it up. 💨🎉
Gross
I won the discord giveaway, was given code and redeemed straight on Steam
is there a way to hide the UI?
that's what i was hoping for too lol
Currently no
congrats. Enjoy the game bud!
Thanks 
Good stream today Falcore!
can't wait for test this game
Love your content as always
Ok I have group project I must do now. I will be semi-stepping away. Have fun everyone, behave till JeeZee gets back. Be back soon
Hi all do you know for how long this test will be open ?
4 week's
I want to get off work so I can play Crosswind 😦
Why don't more people come in? I'd really like to try the test.
cuz we don't have acces bro
is it online ? or just single p
We want giveaway 
Online but you'll be in a solo instance you can invite people to
I'm seriously looking forward to going cannon-ball deep tomorrow
guys should i leave work early to play
Is there no way to get a key?
To the game? You can read up in the pins for how to get access to the alpha
i want play 😦
Can i get in on the playtest? i have a beast of a pc.
Selection of players will be down to a 'lottery' that Steam runs which will randomly select players to participate from the pool of signups so hit the 'Request Access' button for a chance to be selected.
i make that
How long is the Alpha Test?
a month
@jolly pawn 4 weeks
Wow that's long nice,.. but i don't have access sad xD
will it be like dune with mixed pve and pvp or is "endgame" more or less pvp?
Guys guys i got in....
|| is what i would have said if i got in ||
the pvp its opcional
finally 😭
i need access pls......🤓
is this the black flag we all been waiting for???
i hope
its been 84 years
The design of the game is a unique mix of Valheim and Black Flag. It has elements of both while being its own thing
Short Answer: Yesn't
my body/pc is ready
So why have I not gotten access yet? I applied like weeks before hand?
No that's Yakuza, you literally can't beat making a major quest line end with ||the friends we made along the way||
its random who gets in
Aaa ok Rog.
JeeZee I forgot to ask 1 question thats actually important and I dont think I've seen the answer yet... our characters can swim, right? Lmao
I used to have the gif version of that but idk where its gone
Yes. Cant have a pirate game without the ability to swim.
however there is no diving yet. Only surface swimming
looking over at Skull and Bones
will this have a big market release or is this made by a "small" studio?
he did say pirate game so, it is still excused
Studio has roughly 50 people working on it (last I remember)
How do i sign up for the alpha?
Request access on the steam store page
