Can’t wait to test out the update later

[shut swan]

@fickle vigil sorry for the ping. Just eager to try the update. Any news on how much longer till it drops?

[fickle vigil]

Your good no worries! Im finishing it up so it'll be submitted in about half an hour or less id say

[shut swan]

Yay!

I get to test before I go sleep

[fickle vigil]

From then its just waiting until Epic approves which can from 10 mins - 3 hrs but usually its less than half an hour

But ill text on here as soon as its out if anything!

[shut swan]

Well hopefully it’s ready before I go to bed. If not I’ll be on first think in morning

[fickle vigil]

Glad to hear! If you have any feedback after the update il be looking forward to it :)

[shut swan]

Of course!

[shut swan]

I’ll be going to bed in about an hour or so

[fickle vigil]

Yea I'm still finishing up so I wouldnt expect it before then 😭 Itll be live tomorrow morning though

[shut swan]

Aight I’ll check it out in morning. And hey. If u want u can always send me a dm to let me know it’s up. I always check dms first thing in the morning before servers honestly

[fickle vigil]

Update is submitted should be out by the morning but heres the changes!

• Adjusted all Resource sell values, most should feel competitive to where they are unlocked
• XP threshold is lowered (total 1-50 is comparable to 1-35 before update)
• Hitting coin box now gives more xp depending on the box level and there are now several boxes per world
• Fixed an issue where bosses would not respawn after some time
• Potion interactions are slowed down

[shut swan]

Ooo can’t wait to check it

[cold siren]

всем ку я новенький тут!

[shut swan]

@fickle vigil I’ve tested all but potions and it’s working well so far! When will the beacon always turning off be fixed so u don’t have to turn it on every time u load the world?

Never mind I see u fixed beacon just had to enable it yay

[fickle vigil]

Oh perfect I was about to say I thought i fixed it haha

Were you able to rebirth fine? or if not could you let me know if everything seems working good?

[shut swan]

I’ll let ya know soon I’m farming a money box in the end

Explain these please

[fickle vigil]

Oh shoot it should be showing what they do ill be fixing that but one sec

this is what should show

if you click the up arrow it unlocks them

[shut swan]

Ooooo

It didn’t show till u unlock it

@fickle vigil

I unlocked tycoon first. It showed buffs after I purchased it

[fickle vigil]

right yea Im fixing that in the update coming today!

but yea sorry about that!

also your playing on switch I assume from the screenshot? how is the performance is there any lag in the game?

[shut swan]

I’m playing on mobile actually. I’m a Xbox player

But don’t currently have a console

Performance is not bad just periodically lags buts that normal when playing on mobile

[fickle vigil]

Ooooh good to hear, seeing the controller ui threw me off i forget you can just connect a controller to mobile 😭

[shut swan]

All good

I should hopefully be back on console next month

[fickle vigil]

But totally let me know how pacing feels after rebirthing it should go by alot faster

[shut swan]

Yeah it does especially with the tycoon buff

[fickle vigil]

Did your console break or are you getting a new one or somthing?

[shut swan]

So can I equip all 4 at once?

[fickle vigil]

or just not home rn

Nah its only 1 at a time but you can switch them at any time

[shut swan]

My 1 year old at the time baby brother threw my tv off my stand December 7th 2024. The Xbox was connected came with the tv breaking the tv and broke the hdmi port on the Xbox

[fickle vigil]

omg nooo 😭

[shut swan]

Xbox themselves told me if hdmi broke it’s easier to get a new console cause there is internal issues as well

And could end up costing more than a console

So I been mobile for almost 2 years playing through cloud gaming

[fickle vigil]

Ohhh how has cloud gaming been?

I tried it a few years ago but couldnt deal with the latency but i immagine the technology is better now

[shut swan]

Good. At least I still have my gamepass so still get access to tons of games. Not all games since not all games are cloud playable ya know? But enough to keep me occupied

Fortnite is the mobile app

I only use cloud once a month to do a quick login on Xbox cloud for fort cause my crew comes from gamepass

And on mobile it makes u once a month log the site that u get crew from to keep it active

[fickle vigil]

Thats awesome, yea gamepass is the GOAT i mustve played atleast 100 games through my years with it 😭

I dont really play much anymore besides the occasional steam game so I dont have it anymore but it was a solid deal for the price

[fickle vigil]

Ohh i forget that gamepass brings fortnite crew right?

[shut swan]

I hate how I own some games and can’t play them tho. For example. I own borderlands Pandora’s box that give me 1-3 all dlc and even the pre sequel and it’s dlc. But can only cloud play 2 and 3 and 4. So since 1 and pre sequel aren’t cloud playable I can’t play 2 and 3 through Pandora’s box I have to play through the game itself on cloud

[shut swan]

Yeah so I get my crew free which is nice

[fickle vigil]

Ohh I see yea that sucks especially since your still paying for the whole gamepass subscription lmao

but I guess it is on the cloud so its hard to get servers for every game or something

[shut swan]

Well it’s worth it tho

[shut swan]

No more like Microsoft has to get permission to have it on their cloud

[fickle vigil]

Ohh thats how it works?

Weird they got permission for 2 and 3 but not 1 LOL

[shut swan]

For example not all resident evil games. Like the ones in gamepass? Those are cloud playable. But if they aren’t gamepass they aren’t cloud playable

So I can play re2 re3 biohazard and village

[fickle vigil]

Right I get it but still has a crazy amount of games on cloud so its still worth it

speaking of re im playing through re4 rn lol

I played through 2 and 3 not too long ago and I liked them alot tbh

[shut swan]

Like for me? Sadly rocket league isn’t on Xbox cloud so I pay $10 a month to have Nvidia membership that gives me 6 hour blocks on the cloud for rocket league

Like I have to play 2 at least Leon’s side to play 4 6 and 9

[fickle vigil]

Really rocket league isnt on cloud? I wouldve thought it was since it was on gamepass for awhile before it went free ofc

[shut swan]

It’s not on gamepass lol

Fortnite is only on gamepass because of it being part of gamepass perks

[fickle vigil]

Right yea im saying like before it went free to play it used to be on gamepass i believe

[shut swan]

Ohh well it’s not now.

[fickle vigil]

but yea since its not there anymore it makes sense they wouldnt support it on cloud

[fickle vigil]

Yea im kinda doing the same doing 2-4 and then 7-9

i hear 5 and 6 aint that good so i dont plan on playing them lol

[shut swan]

7 and 8 u can play without playing any others

BUT u have to play 7 before u play 8

8 is 3 years after the events of 7

[fickle vigil]

Yea Im looking forward to 7 i heard its really good but very different from the action in 4

Im just playing them in sequential order since im kinda marathoning them

[shut swan]

Oh yeah 7 and 8 are insanely good

7 introduces Ethan winters. That’s who u play as for 7 and 8.

And introduces a new plague called the mold

[fickle vigil]

Yea Ive heard somethings about it and theres like a random big mom with a hat in 7 😭

[shut swan]

And it’s in 7 and 8 but u have to play 7 first cause 8 expands on the molds lore

[shut swan]

No

[fickle vigil]

Going into it mostly blind since I like being surprised

[shut swan]

That’s lady dimitrescu from village

[fickle vigil]

ohh shes from 8?

[shut swan]

Lmao u say no spoilers so I won’t spoil her boss fight

Village has 5 boss fights

[fickle vigil]

lol

is 8 similar to the gameplay in 7?

[shut swan]

Yeah

[fickle vigil]

I feel like i havent heard much about it compared to 7

[shut swan]

But both are crazy

https://tenor.com/view/bela-resident-evil-village-gif-5016490785736764756

U haven’t heard of these girls?

[fickle vigil]

Nah maybe ive seen them scrolling on tiktok or smth but also Im not too intune with the re fanbase

like i didnt play my first game being re2 until like 3 months ago LOL

[shut swan]

All I will say. They are lady d’s daughters

U don’t fight lady d till the final daughter is killed

[fickle vigil]

Ohh ok i gotcha so its like a series of fights with the whole fam basically

actually dont tell me lol

id rather just see it when playing

[shut swan]

For that yeah. Then u gotta fight a living doll a weird fish creature and a guy that can control metal

All before u fight the final boss aka mother Miranda

Oh can I aay something for the basement of the house u fight the doll in? U gonna hate that basement

It has a creature that u cant hurt or kill. U just have to juke it and trick it and outrun it as u go around trying to turn the power back on and escape the basement lol

[fickle vigil]

Oh hell nah 😭

so kinda like mr X and Nemesis

[shut swan]

https://tenor.com/view/resident-evil-whats-happening-who-are-you-gif-21570437

This is the doll

https://tenor.com/view/resident-evil-hello-i-see-you-oh-yeah-gif-21570409

This is the dude who becomes a giant fish

And that is the boss fight

https://tenor.com/view/resident-evil-look-you-have-got-this-wrong-gif-21570312

Final boss before Miranda and this Guy is basically magneto

[fickle vigil]

dang its crazy how its far they stray from the zombies thing

im not complaining though its cool

[shut swan]

The unkillable creature

If it catches u it eats u

And the final boss

I will say this

U burn through ammo a lot

[fickle vigil]

bro what is this guy fighting 😂

game looks pretty cool through ngl

[shut swan]

That’s a lady

Oh yeah the merchant

[fickle vigil]

Oh yea i mean Ethan

[shut swan]

https://tenor.com/view/duke-resident-evil-re8-belly-the-duke-gif-21790142

[fickle vigil]

like the stuff hes fighting is crazy compared to re2 and 3

[shut swan]

This is the merchant

[fickle vigil]

anyways Im being distracted from work rn lol but it was cool seeing all this stuff about re8

[shut swan]

Yeah u gonna have fun with 7 and 8

[shut swan]

@fickle vigil so uhhhhh me and my friend found a glitch. Working together we rebirthed my island to 2 already. But it didn’t give a rebirth to him but pacing is definitely quick when u rebirth

[fickle vigil]

Good to hear! That isnt a glitch its intended since each player has their own island, only the island owner gets the rebirth

[shut swan]

Oooo

[fickle vigil]

However when the owner rebirths the 2nd player doesnt lose any gold or anything

[shut swan]

Well yeah we got mine pretty quickly to rebirth 2

[fickle vigil]

Were the rebirth buttons working good?

like buttons that needed you to be rebirth 1 or 2

if you bought any of them

[shut swan]

Yeah

[fickle vigil]

Okok thats good, I also sent out a patch for today thats adds in a quicker way to access upgrades for all the things around the map

[shut swan]

It’s working well but yeah my friend when I rebirthed had 70 mil. If he used it on my island that was rebirth 2 just started? He would have been able to easily max out sky and prob the mines really quickly

[shut swan]

Wait how

[fickle vigil]

like theres a upgrade button just next to things so you dont have to use the menu

Oh its not out yet i submitted it like 5 minutes ago lol

[shut swan]

Ohhh

[fickle vigil]

It also adds in a tutorial but your past that point so it wont show for you haha

[shut swan]

So there is more upgrade board

Yeah I’m rebirth 2 using the tycoon ability

[fickle vigil]

Kind of, itll be a upgrade button, and it just opens up the direct upgrade page for whatever is infront of it

[shut swan]

Oooo

[fickle vigil]

so like the sawmill has one and it opens up directly to the machine upgrades

[shut swan]

Oooo that’s usefull

[fickle vigil]

Your trying to focus on tycoon for now?

like not unlocking any other abilities yet

[shut swan]

I unlocked warrior

But my damage clocks bosses quickly lol

[fickle vigil]

Oh cool! Im also open for any feedback on if abilities feel to weak or strong

Yea or if bosses are too weak lol

[shut swan]

Like my damage is high enough I 2 shot the slime and I’m at I think level 9 damage

First hit regardless of item takes slime from 300 to 116

[fickle vigil]

Right since those upgrades dont reset on rebirth

I might make the boss hp go up on rebirths but give more rewards maybe could be cool

[shut swan]

Ooo yeah

Oooo maybe special weapons too that requires rebirths

[fickle vigil]

I hear you on that actually

[shut swan]

Like give more incentives to rebirth other than just certain areas that unlock

[fickle vigil]

well there is one already its the laser beam gun i forget its name

[shut swan]

The ray gun?

[fickle vigil]

but I locked it behind rebirth 3 area since it hits the box crazyyy fast

yess

[shut swan]

Oooo

@split sedge here is where the ray gun went lol

Like maybe have it that when u rebirth it shows u the area that can now be unlocked?

[fickle vigil]

Ooh yeah Ill take that into consideration

[shut swan]

But yeah I feel we need more incentives maybe make purchases cost more based on how many rebirths u are at so u can’t just fly through it in under an hour

[fickle vigil]

Totally i gotcha, was it actually that quick 😭

[shut swan]

Like I hit rebirth 1 this morning took a all day break and completed my island with my friend to get rebirth 2 in at most 40 minutes

[fickle vigil]

Id be interested in how long it took the 1st clear you did too if you dont mind sharing

[shut swan]

Once u got to certain grinds u could fly through areas mass buying everything

[fickle vigil]

Daamn yea the resource buff probably helped crazy then huh

Were you mainly using resources or the box?

[shut swan]

Uhhh mainly the boss in the mines and the lava boss. Cause they helped grind a lot from that area to sell and money they give was decent per kill and with me at damage level 9 I did it quickly

That’s why I suggest making it that each rebirth makes the stuff a lot more expensive

Like even buying upgrades I could mass buy to max out cave and sky enemies with just about 4-5 mil form level 1 to level 10 to quickly farm out the mines boss

[fickle vigil]

Oooh interewsting wouldnt have expected the bosses to be the money strat lmao

[shut swan]

Well at max level the mines boss was giving me like 2-4 mill a kill

On top of all the minerals

[fickle vigil]

But yea I see now thanks for this ill be doing some tuning tomorrow to flesh things out

[shut swan]

Pacing is good but for having a rebirth it felt a bit too fast to get back to the ender dragon

And maybe make it that even if u buy the ship powers u need every single other purchase to get the ender dragon

[fickle vigil]

Yea id be aiming for the sub 1 hr pacing to be like rebirth 6 or smth

[shut swan]

I didn’t even buy everything

[fickle vigil]

Honestly thats also not a bad idea

[shut swan]

I was able to bypass a lot of stuff basically went straight for expansions and bridges

And bought the 2 ship upgrades with half the end unbought but was able to kill the boss to rebirth

I don’t even know if all of aether was bought

That’s why I say it’s a bit too quick

Cause the money boosts u get from rebirth and or using the tycoon ability makes u fly through especially with friends

[fickle vigil]

Yea you can technically skip alot but the other stuff is just meant to get you more cash

Il just have to nerf/increase the pricing on the stuff you mentioned since yea it seems like u can fly through everything at a certain point

[shut swan]

Yeah but maybe make it all more expensive and a requirement that to rebirth u need to purchase everything excluding rebirth purchases cause that might lock it to needing all rebirth areas able to be bought

Like say a purchase that is normally like 40k? Maybe triple it or something

So instead of 40k u need 120k

[fickle vigil]

Yea totally I hear you

[shut swan]

Cause if u have friends who also rebirthed?

U basically have two or more people with a rebirth money buff and tycoon buff

We were shocked at how quick we flew through it

[fickle vigil]

Yeaa it can get crazy

Well anyways ill be taking this into account for tomorrow update again I appreciate the feedback

[shut swan]

That’s why each rebirth should make everything a lot more expensive. And all good. I told ya I’d playtest it

Cause once me and my friend unlocked emeralds? Both with pickaxe level 9? One round of emerald grabs gave us like 7-8 mil and we turned around and mass bought a lot of stuff

Cause the mines are a bit on cheap side and having millions in the mines was a bit overpowered

[fickle vigil]

Right, do you think making player upgrades also reset on rebirth would be a bad call?

[shut swan]

Like I get the selling to help buy later areas.

[fickle vigil]

dont know how much of a grind it is to max out

[shut swan]

I don’t think so cause u have it set that once u hit level 9? Any upgrade on the player upgrade is 100mil plus

Having to rebuy every upgrade u did each rebirth?

[fickle vigil]

ahh I see what you mean

[shut swan]

It might make ya lose players

Cause they know it’s a pain to upgrade to higher levels and having to redo it each time they reset?

That’s why u should buff the bosses majorly

[fickle vigil]

but yea I think overall I'll look into making rebirths just harder probably will increase prices the higher rebirth and require all buttons to be purchased too

and bosses definitely

[shut swan]

Make it that on rebirths they get more and more health and harder to kill

Maybe they do more damage as well since at health level 9 I have 300 health

And with the speed 3? U can basically dodge the boss attacks

So u never get hit

[fickle vigil]

Right right

Anyway bosses arent meant to be too crazy since alot of the players are kids so cant make them be doing too much

[shut swan]

That’s why honestly? Everything should be buffed honestly. Like we thought when we upgraded enemies they would gain more health or something

[fickle vigil]

but ill definitelty be increasing their health and probably damage the higher rebirth you are

[shut swan]

All good

Can’t wait to test it out later

[fickle vigil]

Thanks for playing! and totally Ill send a message here tomorrow whenever I submit the changes :)

[honest sky]

On the tycoon, the melon farm upgrades dont work
In the Aether, the wood cutter machine thing does not work (cant input items)

but, this is a very nice upgrade over 1 and 2!

in the end, you already see an upgrade thingy, even before buying the appropriate expansion

[fickle vigil]

Thanks for letting me know and appreciate it :)

Ill be fixing these issues tonight

[honest sky]

Take your time!
