[nimble perch]

Haven't looked at the reso yet, how's it work?

[visual elm]

theowyn is out of nowhere too lol

[nimble perch]

you mean RC?

or pets reso

[tough spade]

No Ned to unlock slots

[tough spade]

Yeah

[nimble perch]

ah yeah

quite nice

they learned something from Journey

[tough spade]

Beast encyclopedia is cool too

It’s weird seeing lvl18 pet being rare lmao

[hearty ginkgo]

guys when is the game?

[visual elm]

now

[hearty ginkgo]

Thank you

[nimble perch]

pet ascension feels less interesting than reso as a mechanic to me

not sure why they chose it

[visual elm]

pet ascension has another "the more pets you have the better all your pets are" thing

so people have to endlessly build, there's no "end"

[nimble perch]

there's no max ascension tier?

[visual elm]

i guess we don't know that

like we don't know draconis level max

or if the book just has endless pages

i guess morael is in the game, or lab offered me trial anyway

[nimble perch]

the encyclopedia is nice, but the ascension aspect feels recycled

[nimble perch]

you can go to the hero inheritance menu, or whatever it's called, to see what units you can get from it

5 cele, 5 hypo

can't remember rn

[visual elm]

true there's the portraits too

[grizzled parrot]

guild looks more interesting now. no need to go to ranhorn anymore

[tough spade]

True

DIDTN even notice

[grizzled parrot]

i like the guild layout better. wont let me post pics here though. will post in #classic-chat

[nimble perch]

Why is the auto battle half the speed

it doesn't take the 2x

neither from the battle speed modifier, nor from the game speed modifier

or intended?

[tight jewel]

whats with the ping...

[robust siren]

shouldnt be intentional, auto battle follows the selected speed in the main game

[unreal obsidian]

What's the end goal. Will this replace/be AFK 2? Do we keep all our investments or have to start again

[tough spade]

the things you see here are not planned to be integrated into main servers btw, that's the point of the new version
kinda like WoW/WoW Classic
fresh experience, faster development/progression, revamped features

[unreal obsidian]

I get that. But potentially the other way around everything spent in existing will not be transferable into new. Is that right start again from zero

[marble falcon]

lemme touch that gyat

oops

[rich gust]

i keep getting stuck at loading page every once in a while during auto battle

[unreal obsidian]

Yeah, I'm sure the 4 yrs of other AFK has helped them improve the new one. Will be interesting if that transition is enabled.
But will test and provide feedback

[steep current]

Feedback

Please take the opportunity to use this thread to provide your thoughts, feedback, and suggestions for AFK Arena: Companions

[visual elm]

autobattle is nice but so...slow...

[unreal obsidian]

@steep current where can we post errors like quests not existing, but I have a notification for it.

[steep current]

i'm asking the team if we should create a separate thread or keep it in suggestions, ty

[winter axle]

the "acquire 1 elite hero" one?

[unreal obsidian]

Yes

[visual elm]

lol we can't post images here, kinda means can't really talk about some game stuff easily

[tender parrot]

i just got that one too 💀

[steep current]

fixed

[visual elm]

just overlevel lol

[visual elm]

ty

[grizzled parrot]

2-28 was rougher

[visual elm]

1-7 was the roughest

"the fuck am i playing, wtf am i doing here"

who am i what is this

[rich gust]

auto battle not allowed in tower?

[versed falcon]

Interesting; so I use the link for this?

[lethal mango]

There are a lot of good decisions, only one thong i dont like - reworked beast skills (reworked system of beast ascension is pretty cool, but I would wish that skills will be the same as before)

[visual elm]

it will overwrite yes, but as long as you have your account bound to an email or something you should be able to swap back in (after downloading original game too)

i haven't tried returning

[grizzled parrot]

Treat it like an expansion pack

[coarse crane]

its like im back 4 years ago

[rich gust]

its so slowwwww

[visual elm]

i finally have 2x but that still feels slow for battle...

[steep current]

do not ping staff please

[visual elm]

there'w 4x

[nimble perch]

oh god

going back to the normal game resets all of your settings

[versed falcon]

what fucking code?

[visual elm]

cause it's a redownload lol

[nimble perch]

ignore that and click the link again

[coarse crane]

all those quests are glitched

[visual elm]

i wonder if it slows down regular game

i hope not lol

[nimble perch]

everything has to reload

so yes

the game is slower

[grizzled parrot]

Auto battle runs at 1x speed only

[visual elm]

i mean when it's running

i hope the "modes" are separate enough the codes don't interact lol

[nimble perch]

oh, that part seems fine

[visual elm]

4-16 finally a clear fail for a while

[nimble perch]

just have to redownload 1 gb's worth of data again

[grizzled parrot]

Reg game just fine. You'll appreciate how fast it is after swittching

[visual elm]

i'm autobattling in tower

i don't know when it unlocked though

[versed falcon]

[rich gust]

it unlocked in chapter 3 something

[coarse crane]

3-8

[visual elm]

oh lol

[versed falcon]

What am I doing wrong

[rich gust]

some already have cele in arena

[visual elm]

i haven't had any interesting luck lol

[versed falcon]

Do I install it?

[winter axle]

if you've installed it, check if you have that button

[versed falcon]

I'd rather not lose all my progress

[winter axle]

you don't

[grizzled parrot]

Progress is bound to your account and email. Saved in Lilith's servers.

[mental trench]

Something feels wrong hahaha 😂

[grizzled parrot]

If installation messes up, just clean reinstall and you'll be fine.

As long as your account info is properly bound

[steep current]

nothing here affects global/main server

[rich gust]

oneth

ooh they fixed the bugged quests

[steep current]

[coarse crane]

it wants me to redownload 1gb after switching to classic

will that happen every switch?

[steep current]

yes to my understanding, looking into it and if it plans to be adjusted
be sure to do so on wifi not data

[coarse crane]

unlimited data no problem

but that a pain in the ahh

just make the game 5gb im ok with it

[azure idol]

is there codes? if so where do we enter em

[versed falcon]

[azure idol]

[versed falcon]

I just love starting over XD

[azure idol]

lowkey gonna enjoy starting over this time

[undone wedge]

how or where can i download afk companions? 🤔

[azure idol]

click the pin. its there

[winter axle]

auto ascend ate my carry away

[azure idol]

[versed falcon]

Nostalgia

um... what's this?

free heroes?

[azure idol]

im not to sure either.

[steep current]

it's tied to your main account, you can select summon heroes with the currency here

[azure idol]

ohh that makes sense

[versed falcon]

Cool, I can grab Mishka then

But wait, it's tied to the wrong accoubt

[steep current]

if Mishka is in the game
(I haven't memorized the hero list yet)

[azure idol]

how do we get more of that currency? i cant tell cause the text isnt registering for me

[versed falcon]

I don't have Eironn ascended

or numisu

[steep current]

try clicking "Switch account" in your screenshot and let me know if you have any issues

[steep current]

is a bunch of text just [x] for you?

[versed falcon]

[steep current]

if so check pins for solution

[azure idol]

yea

[azure idol]

oh cheers

[azure idol]

this also happened for me

[versed falcon]

Having issues

[steep current]

when you click "switch account"? lemme look into it

[azure idol]

yea

[versed falcon]

Yeah, that's what pops up after clicking it

[steep current]

got it, ty

[azure idol]

is this companion thing on an older version of the game or smth? hero wise anyways

like is the hero mechanics as they are on classic

[urban tapir]

Heroes same

[azure idol]

kk

[urban tapir]

Content different

[azure idol]

ye makes sense

[azure idol]

whats your ign btw? lemme add yo ahh

[grizzled parrot]

i like the 3x2 arena

hopefully some game modes in classic will use 3x2 as well

[bold condor]

da hell did I get pinged here?

[azure idol]

i wonder how it will apply on heroes like alna

[winter axle]

anyone here has a guild? i'll also need folks to add

[versed falcon]

I like the chapter 1 boss change

[versed falcon]

My name is the same in game

[azure idol]

@solid furnace we recruiting ?

[azure idol]

[versed falcon]

literally anyone but vurk damnit

[azure idol]

[winter axle]

[grizzled parrot]

Entire frontline gets immunity?
That would be OP

[versed falcon]

Shit game, 0/10

[azure idol]

[azure idol]

[rotund heath]

[winter axle]

hm if you hold the level up button long enough, it will reset the level you just did

[hearty ginkgo]

Guys, how long should I wait before release?

[urban dragon]

Wheres the link?

[hearty ginkgo]

what time will it be?

[oblique citrus]

Lil late to the party but I'm here! Let's give it a shot

[winter axle]

anyone else getting "insufficient ressources"?

it doesn't look insufficient to me

ah nvm, restarted the app and its insufficient now

[urban dragon]

Found the link. Hope I'm not too late

[hearty ginkgo]

@urban dragon where can I find it?

[oblique citrus]

It wants me to update my regular afk arena

[plain rivet]

heh its kinda cute going through the tutorial using fodder heroes again lol

[winter axle]

#companions-chat message

[urban dragon]

Check the pins. Derek posted a photo of a QR

[visual elm]

well, i'm at the point where leveling is slow and i'm just setting autobattle to see how far it gets

[versed falcon]

I got one!

[visual elm]

i have that and the white one at L lol

lol, sudden crab boss in campaign

nothing, you are test data

[hearty ginkgo]

isn't this afk arena?

[grizzled parrot]

I'm guessing there will be no more merc options in Companion?

[steep current]

can you elaborate?

[mental trench]

guys how do i recycle the common heroes like i cant open the rickety cart even tho im clicking it

[steep current]

i saw this before, can you try closing the game and reopening maybe?
what campaign stage are you?

[mental trench]

5-3

[mental trench]

i just did what u said and its still not opening

[hearty ginkgo]

how to download it please help me 🥲

[winter axle]

#companions-chat message

[steep current]

hmmm, so far you're the only one I've seen say this
not sure, maybe try switching back to classic then back to test..?

[mental trench]

ok

[steep current]

ty for testing, we're figuring it out together

[hearty ginkgo]

When installing, I download afk arena

[steep current]

yes, this is AFK Arena

again, check pins

[hearty ginkgo]

how can I download afk companions

[mental trench]

it still didnt work

i dont wanna buy storage tho

[versed falcon]

I guess Thane is good early?

[steep current]

again the APK is in the pins. you download that.

[steep current]

noted, I'll share with them ty

[mental trench]

Ok

[ancient vault]

Its a diff apk or basically a afk arena update

?

Also do you still have access to the main game after the update?

[mental trench]

yes theres a button to switch if u want

[hearty ginkgo]

how do I download it if during installation I download afk arena afk place companions

[visual elm]

noooooooooooooooooooooooo it's the pippa thing

[steep current]

it's an APK file that updates your AFK app to a newer/beta version
you can switch between your main/classic account and the Companions server anytime

[urban tapir]

Id: 10323

[hearty ginkgo]

I first need to download afk arena and then this file

[steep current]

you should already have AFK Arena downloaded from the app store
download the apk from the link in the pins
install the APK
open AFK Arena app

[graceful vapor]

alright, 5th one, not bad

[azure idol]

also didnt realise but your vicksin from reddit right? nice to meet you

[steep current]

@ here does not appear in your mentions tab

[wraith apex]

[grizzled parrot]

I mean, since there is the Companion feature from the get go, would there still be the usual Garrison / Mercenary options like in Classic?

[wanton fulcrum]

Dow link?

[steep current]

no garrison because no dimensionals

[grizzled parrot]

I see. How about Mercenaries, would that still be available ?

[steep current]

looking into it

Bug Reports

Please take the opportunity to use this thread to provide any Bug Reports or issues for AFK Arena: Companions

[azure zodiac]

none

[steep current]

no, this is just a closed test

[azure zodiac]

but seeing this, it looks like progress will be wiped once the companions update goes live for real

I definitely understand the decision if they do want to follow that since many core features are changed

[steep current]

this test version closes on August 8th, the live/permanent version will not be going live immediately in its' place

also Companions is not an update that will be touching global servers (your current global account)

it'll be similar once it's implemented live, a button to switch in your settings

[azure zodiac]

Oh? So it’s like a special version instead

Interesting, that’s cool

[steep current]

sorry i missed this :') yesyes, that's me
nice to meet you too

[azure idol]

[azure zodiac]

Yeah I do realize the actual update won’t be live for sometime, I figured it would be sometime next year I think

[steep current]

yes exactly
current version of AFK is like "Classic" (as it's referred to in the current companions beta), these features you see in CBT are for Companions

it's not going to be like one giant patch for base game ala the Patch 1.146, 147, etc you see now, it's just going to be Companions

[azure idol]

so two seperate gamemodes?

sweet

[azure zodiac]

Two different versions

[azure idol]

i like this companions

teaming with a friend to borrow there heroes is fun

[azure zodiac]

Are the heroes here the ones available at launch from the classic version?

[azure idol]

there as they are in current classic

so shemira in classic is shemira in companions

[steep current]

no, there's a mix, like Thesku is in there too. it's not just like the first ~30 heroes or so

[azure zodiac]

Oh, I see

[azure idol]

oh thats what they meant?

[steep current]

the ones available at launch from the classic version
that's how i understood anyway :')

[hollow swan]

vick do i just type in the thread or go to suggestions?

[azure zodiac]

Yeah, I was going to rephrase the question to ‘are the heroes currently available in companions the same heroes that were available in classic at launch?’

[azure idol]

ahhh i thought they meant mechanics

[azure idol]

yea nah theres a few that arnt from launch

[steep current]

hmmm depends, what's up?

[hollow swan]

no, there are more heroes available

[coarse crane]

am i th only one who didnt get a carry but only supports uhh

[hollow swan]

just wanted to say the classic version has become laggy aswell

[grizzled parrot]

It's good to know everyone who plays Companions when its finally launched will all start from the beginning 🙂

[azure idol]

luck of the draw. ive gotten supports and tanks

[steep current]

is it still reinstalling game files?
after your first time switching back to classic, it should need to reinstall some things, but only the first time as far as i know

[hollow swan]

i mean ive downloaded everything

[steep current]

there would be a little icon to the left of the quests button, i think a cloud?

[hollow swan]

yea thats gone, ive downloaded it

[steep current]

hmmm, i assume you've already tried closing/reopening and/or switching back to Companions then back to classic?

[winter axle]

When 4x battle speed? 🤔

im like way to used to the classic server battle speed

[hollow swan]

yea ive swapped between the 2, test version seems smoother, im just gonna repair the game and see what happens

[visual elm]

welp

[azure idol]

vick i did the language switch thing and it hasnt fixed the [X] thing for me

[visual elm]

same actually

[steep current]

that was gonna be my next suggestion, ty

[steep current]

that's a new one

[azure idol]

ill try it again

[steep current]

dumb request, can you try again

yeah

[visual elm]

i keep failing to send battle data

[steep current]

you too fish
also try a different language than the one you did the first time?
i did french to fix it

idk

[visual elm]

time to take a break for the day lol

[hollow swan]

yea a few of the text things are in what i believe to be chinese or straight up just xxx where the text would be

[azure idol]

ye trying french

@steep current problems still going

damn

[steep current]

with the x's? can you send screen?

in #1265207446041792634 , include that you tried the changing languages fix plz

[hollow swan]

yea thats the one

[wanton ivy]

Where is download link ?

[wanton ivy]

Thx

[humble quail]

Why does it has the same name as the actual game im i suppose to Reinstall the game ?

[steep current]

because it is the same game
you're installing an APK file which updates your game to the test version

[dawn bone]

Which stage player need to pass to join companion event?

[steep current]

none, it's not an event, it's a beta test

[visual elm]

it will replace, i would be sure you have a way to log into account just in case before installing (i wasn't logged out, but...just in case)

[humble quail]

I alr have the test version or is it a different version

[dawn bone]

but what is the differense? as I see by piacture, I can play duo with friend, no?

[steep current]

it's different than the Test Server if that's what you're asking
link is in pins

[steep current]

there's a ton of differences, it's a different version of the game

[humble quail]

Ye im curious about which one of my version gana be replaced is it the global one or the test server ?

[humble quail]

Alr thx

[visual elm]

i would guess global one if you have both installed, probably has the same game/app id as the global one

[grizzled parrot]

Global one (i have both installed, and only the global one updated)

No Companion apk for test yet

[visual elm]

do you get anything interesting out of despair battle

[coarse crane]

same, my strongest carry is Rare Saveas

while i have 5+ elites

all support/tank

[visual elm]

people already have rares

i don't even have enough things to upgrade fodder lol

[coarse crane]

failed to verify data

ah hit here we go again

[coarse crane]

rare is the first ascension the blue one

[visual elm]

i thought rare = legendary+

probably because i'm playing a game with rares = yellow items, and legendaries are yellow lol

[steep current]

fish relearning what early game is like

[visual elm]

mixing different games

my summons are all over the place rn, kinda tragic

i guess just wait a couple of hours/days for levels

[winter axle]

isn't there like dozens of stuff to do again?

[visual elm]

also this won't go away and is already annoying me

i'm capped on the stupid pippa thing

[hollow field]

So after it goes live after beta testing, it will be a new server/game, and you'll have to start again to Access the features in companions? Or it'll be added to existing game.

[steep current]

the first one

it'll be "added to the existing game" in that you'll be able to switch to Companions from the settings like in this beta test

[visual elm]

the ❗ in the heroes page continuously telling you to put gear on fodder is also really annoying

[steep current]

but they're not completely scrapping beasts and doing this new system, for example

[steep current]

put in #1265174688670158900 i'll clean up that channel in a sec

[visual elm]

i thought that channel was like the...meteor feedback where we could only post once lol

[steep current]

nono you're good, all feedback is good feedback

just cleaning up because it got a little too discussion-y and mixed with bugs, which now has its' own channel

[restive smelt]

hi, can you tell me if there will be a closed beta test? and where can I watch and download it?

[winter axle]

hm, i said check the pins

[restive smelt]

Sorry my English so so

Hehe

Oh I found it thanks

[polar leaf]

This is definitely taken from Journey

And I don't see a wishlist in tavern??

[winter axle]

it'll unlock

curious tho, doesn't look like there's pet resonance

lilith got tired of people getting new pets to 18 instantly?

[thin yarrow]

Hello. I am disappointed that after updating the game version, I have to re-download gigabytes of game files, the cache is erased, game settings are reset, and all images and game resources are reinstalled. Why not create a separate file or provide an option to save the game cache and avoid downloading it every time?

[wintry adder]

theres no pet levels

you ascend them like heros now

[hearty ginkgo]

why when downloading it installs afk arena for me how to download afk companions

[winter axle]

companions is a version within afk arena

[hearty ginkgo]

is this game unchanged? just another name

[winter axle]

you can switch versions inside settings

[azure idol]

whats the difference here?

[winter axle]

I think its taken from journey aswell, differnet reward calculation times

[azure idol]

is that all?

[winter axle]

dont know if there's more

[azure idol]

imma choose night. wannas ee what its like

[steep current]

tavern wishlist unlocks after 20 summons

[onyx horizon]

How enter in afk companions?

[steep current]

after you reload back into classic version and everything re-downloads, you shouldn't need to do it again

[hearty ginkgo]

afk companions is it the same as afk arena but with different characters?

[azure idol]

@steep current you know vick?

[polar leaf]

Ok, so now I unlocked wishlist... And I can't even choose all heroes, like there is not a Nevanthi that I can choose there, yet she is supposed to be in the game?

[steep current]

please read the pins
i've explained to you before how to download/install and everything you need to know is in pins, i can only re-hash so much

[steep current]

not all heroes from base game are here, just a limited cast
Nevanthi is not in Companions, at least not right now

[polar leaf]

She's here for me for some reason

Only faction with one more hero too

[swift token]

and it will be a new server in future or what to expect after beta?

[steep current]

it will be the same as it is now - selectable from the settings

[swift token]

ok so just another game in the game :D? so start from new ?

[steep current]

yes, new account on a new server
can inherit some things from your main account like the Hero Returns tab

[steep current]

lemme see
oh also hiiii Renikee

[swift token]

okay great, still feels better than afk journey imo 😄

so a good scnd game / acc

[polar leaf]

Heyy!

[oblique trellis]

I switched to the classic version, and now I don’t know how to switch back.

[steep current]

yesyes
the arenas are the same, it's just when calculations happen, for players that live in different time zones to choose what is more convenient for them

[azure idol]

[polar leaf]

The same way you switched, go to account, settings, and the option will be there to switch

[steep current]

same as getting back to Classic, settings > switch version

[lethal mango]

reload game

[steep current]

that was 4 hours ago xD it's working now

[oblique trellis]

I don’t have that as an option.

I know I have it downloaded because this would be showing install:

[lethal mango]

XD, Ok

[broken glade]

[azure idol]

i seen someone with her. shes available to get idk how

[rare barn]

did anyone use the Function: Hero Return Perks - Activate (what does it actually do)?

[wintry adder]

banned

https://tenor.com/view/duck-mad-angry-i-will-kill-you-gif-17283481

[oblique trellis]

This is what my side looks like when I go to attempt to switch.

[steep current]

we're on different versions of the game it seems like

looking at version numbers

can you try to reinstall the APK file? not sure how this happened if you were actually on Companions, clicked switch back to classic, and now your game is the wrong version...

[steep current]

Itron seriously

you're just like this in both games huh

or is it all games

[oblique trellis]

Ima offload my game to reinstall it because I can’t get emails to my gmail right now for some reason.

[polar leaf]

Okay so my current experience is, it's really trying to follow the steps of Journey

Not sure if it's a good thing tho

[winter axle]

sharing your screenshot gave me some luck

[broken glade]

[steep current]

some aspects are certainly the same, like resonating crystal
i think journey was able to do a lot good since they were starting from scratch 5y after Arena did, and a lot of those features were too natively baked into Arena to really change
so this is def the opportunity to bring those ideas to light

[polar leaf]

Well, the reso crystal idea is nice actually in a way that we won't have to always reset and re-level up heroes, for the cost of diamonds as well

For now at least

[oblique trellis]

Using an emulator?

[winter axle]

thats 110% my smartphone

[oblique trellis]

What emulator. And yes, it is possible for that to be someone’s phone. I used to install emulators of android on my android to try out some downloads to protect my actual phone.

[winter axle]

LDPlayer Galaxy S something

Grezhul actually feels like a tank in this version 🤔

[polar leaf]

He is not squishy anymore?

[winter axle]

idk but ive started classic 6 months back and people still said to invest 9f into him

worst mistake ever

[rapid jungle]

Где ссылка скачать

[polar leaf]

Btw, why do we not have an option to retry?

[polar leaf]

Cool, idk russian

[neat seal]

where to download the new version?

[polar leaf]

Even if you guys go on reddit, the pinned post is about this, under a comment there are even links for download

[winter axle]

when 4x battle speed?

[azure idol]

who knows

[winter axle]

if im not getting one of those 500 chests

ill quit

[polar leaf]

Bruh can't collect these

[rich gust]

Restart game. I already collected those.

[polar pike]

Happened at least 20 times, even when I restart the app, as soon as I do few retries it's back. Anyone reported this already?

Won a battle, but it's not accepting.

[polar leaf]

Oh that's rarely but happening to me in my original account

[plucky mantle]

So we gonna get something to the Main game or not at all? wtf is this

[polar pike]

Never happened to me in original Afk Arena, only in this new one, Companions.

[potent wasp]

I ran into a problem that doesn't let me go beyond level 7.7, I spent 10 attempts, I won everything but I didn't miss it

[polar leaf]

Good for you then because it happened a lot for me, when I have finished 3-team king's tower for example

Wait what is this?? Lvl 240 Mirael? Is it showing like this in the classic version as well?

[heady pebble]

Hi iz dis fun

[polar pike]

Same thing happening to me.

[steep current]

Nevanthi situation solved

[azure idol]

she only appears in that?

damn

[steep current]

yes

[potent wasp]

there is also a problem with the mail, I created a guild and immediately left a message came and it cannot be opened or deleted

[steep current]

please share this in #1265207446041792634 , Спасибо!

[heady pebble]

Wait so are the data of AFK linked to this companion things

If I summon here do I end up paying for it on main game?

[polar leaf]

The two accounts are not related but you can reach them both from the settings

This account will be deleted in august but nothing will happen to your main game

[heady pebble]

But looking at all these bug reports... Urgh

[polar leaf]

Oh yeah, this companions seems to have so many bugs lol

[steep current]

it's in beta for a reason :)
it's mostly just text boxes rn, battle verify is the only big one we're having so far

[oblique trellis]

It worked, so now I’m good. Thanks.

[inland halo]

Yo, guys. Is it still possible to join a beta?

[steep current]

great glad we got it

[oblique trellis]

I like this non p2w version.

[winter axle]

non p2w so far

[errant haven]

How do I connect to my main account?

[hollow swan]

You can't till ch2

[oblique trellis]

Mb. I miss read the question.

[errant haven]

No I mean do I get rewards on my main acc or will this be like a new beta account?

[oblique trellis]

What do you mean? Like, the beta account will be reset?

[oblique trellis]

It’ll be new. The only association between the 2 is your links.

[steep current]

no rewards on main account from doing this

[steep current]

your beta account will be deleted yes, on August 8th

your main account will be unaffected

[oblique trellis]

Is that when the beta is ending or something?

[hollow swan]

Yup she just said so

[oblique trellis]

Well, looks like I’m sticking to the p2w version then. That sucks.

[steep current]

this is just a closed beta for testing, it will have a permanent launch in the future

that was communicated up-front fwiw

[oblique trellis]

Ok. I’ll be keeping an eye out for the permanent one then, because it’s better than the regular one.

[heady pebble]

AFK Arena 1.5

[oblique trellis]

Also, I didn’t notice that. I just scrolled past it to find the download.

[steep current]

💀

[oblique trellis]

What, I like to be a part of beta for games. I’m a beta player on around 20 games in total. They always seem to be better than the normal one.

[steep current]

no that's fine
i meant the part where you asked the same question a couple times which is already addressed in pins then said you just scrolled past it 💀

we put it there for a reason

[torn mountain]

What’s this?

[steep current]

read pins then ask questions xD

bonk to you too /s

[echo inlet]

Failed battle data error so annoying

[torn mountain]

Are the early campaign bosses new in this game?

[steep current]

it's being looked over rn

[steep current]

it's different yes

first boss was AE1 boss iirc

[torn mountain]

They look really cool

[steep current]

this was last season AbEx boss pretty sure

so no brand new bosses, but it's not just Soren Kane then 5-team

[torn mountain]

So there’s limited campaign rewards?

I didn’t know that

[polar leaf]

Btw this winning animation of Shem is so cute, so much better than her sitting on a random chair lol

[mental trench]

fr lol the color of the chair doesn’t fit much of her outfit lol

[unreal fox]

companions just installed above original afk game, how to swap between games then?

[winter axle]

settings -> switch version

[unreal fox]

thanks

[errant haven]

Will we get one after the beta?

[lusty nexus]

Where I can find a recap about this new sh@t? New game? Afk rewark? Will I lose everything or restart from 0 if it's implemented?

[polar leaf]

So many questions, so many people not reading lol

[winter axle]

dang 😄

[rich gust]

😂😂😂😂

5-40 was hard. Took me many tries

[errant haven]

So we are supposed to activate it or not?

[steep current]

it is up to you, this is an optional beta test

again, please read the pins

[errant haven]

Ok so the smart thing will be to save it for the real one then?

[steep current]

there's no smart or dumb thing lol
it's a beta test
it'll be deleted on August 8th
you can play, or not

[torn mountain]

Is it just me or can we not access the rickety cart to retire heroes?

[rich gust]

Awakened will not be added later chapters?

[rich gust]

For the common ones?

[torn mountain]

Yep

[rich gust]

I was able to retire them

[torn mountain]

Weird

I can’t even click on the cart

Tried restarting

[rich gust]

Then put automatic retire for commons

[steep current]

you're not the only one this has happened to

[torn mountain]

Well then there’s a follow up question. Is there a fix?

[cinder wharf]

Keep killing the app and re-opening until it works. I have to kill app after each stage now as it's so broken

[torn mountain]

Will try that

[winter axle]

that's a faction based effect? o.o

[hollow swan]

whale

[winter axle]

👀

[torn mountain]

Weird

Can’t seem to progress now

Welp

I’ll try finding a repair game button in settings lol

[steep current]

that is weird, try repair game

yeah

[torn mountain]

Just repaired the game and I have the same issue

[compact turtle]

Anyone wanna Duo for this AFK companions (I just started im at like Chap 2.22)

[steep current]

please share the vid in #1265207446041792634 and state you tried repair game to no effect, tyty

[torn mountain]

Oh there’s a bug report

Will do

[steep current]

as well as suggestions

[winter axle]

does it make much of a differnece?

like I can see the feature being useful if it wasn't just a 2 weeks testphase

I guess unless you're missing one of those 1 copy wonders

[compact turtle]

i just want to progress with someone who is also grinding

[torn mountain]

I still need a campaign duo

[compact turtle]

I have a deal

[torn mountain]

Well, I would grind, but I sort of can’t progress because my game is completely broken

Repaired x2
Restarted a lot

Reported in bug reports

A shame really, was going so well

[compact turtle]

what stage where u at

[misty badger]

🤝

[torn mountain]

4-16

A bit late to the party but whatever

[neat seal]

when entering an old cart, the game glitches ..

[winter axle]

if anyone still needs a partner: my ingame is TheDoctor, currently at 6-4

[compact turtle]

whats ur ID

[graceful vapor]

just pop AE mode after finish 8-40, but can't find it

[winter axle]

11367 but woutorro was faster

[hearty ginkgo]

what should I do I'm trying to download afk companions but I keep downloading afk arena what should I do?

[compact turtle]

are you guys also holding onto Beast summon for later?

[winter axle]

What do you mean by later?

[compact turtle]

The farther you get into campaign the more beasts u have a chance to summon

(better ones)

[winter axle]

Oh I see; didn't know that so I already used up all my sums

[compact turtle]

the farthest region is 8-40

[steep current]

at this point this is becoming spam tbh
we've pinged you like 5 times saying AFK Companions is AFK Arena, and shared screenshots of how to switch to the Companions server once you download and install the APK

[compact turtle]

Do we know what the max tier of pet is it just ascended or is it A5

[winter axle]

is it even higher than legendary?

[compact turtle]

I dont know 😅

[steep current]

I know of mythic, not sure above that

[winter axle]

ah so you unlock it?

cuz it says I couldnt right now

[compact turtle]

Since we get A Legendary Owl on day 6 or something I was planning to summon for owls to get an Ascended pet early

maybe still worth if its mythic

[torn mountain]

I wonder when they’ll respond to my bug report

I tried repairing my game again and no difference yet again

[steep current]

you're not the first to report, it's on the radar

idk why it's happening

[compact turtle]

sorry where do you find this screen? Maybe im too low to see it

[winter axle]

the book

[twilit ether]

sir have u tried emulating

[winter axle]

sorta hidden

[steep current]

beast portrait > any beast > beast note

[torn mountain]

I remember in Arena you had a little tutorial on how to use it. I never got that in companions. That could be the reason?

[compact turtle]

thanks ❤️

[steep current]

iirc I got a tutorial

[compact turtle]

I got a tutorial with the Lance man and knight

[steep current]

either way it's being looked into

[torn mountain]

I think we found the problem

[twilit ether]

what tutorial are yall talking bout? I'll see if it pops up with me too

[torn mountain]

Rickety cart tutorial

[twilit ether]

ok let me test

[rich gust]

No tier after legendary yet

[twilit ether]

i opened it, nothing popped up

[torn mountain]

[winter axle]

no tier yet
you might unlock it later or it's not part of the game yet
but the best portrait states that there is a higher tier

[torn mountain]

Well at least I figured out a good campaign team. Let’s hope this carries me through

Literally all I can work with

[compact turtle]

whats the sauce lol

[torn mountain]

Secret

[compact turtle]

[torn mountain]

[compact turtle]

Is the Cavalier actually good?

[torn mountain]

Estrilda?

[compact turtle]

yea lol

[steep current]

no one here has gotten to beast fusion yet either

[wild cypress]

Can I record the content of this game and post it on my YouTube ?

[steep current]

probably? but let me ask

[wild cypress]

thanks

[compact turtle]

Does anyone wanna make a guild from people in this discord by chance? (or is there already one)

[steep current]

I'll assume you're fine because it didn't state anywhere that it's not allowed
but tentative gimme a minute

[torn mountain]

I mean FireSpore already has multiple guilds in there

FireSpore, WaterSpore, EarthSpore from what I heard

[nova oriole]

How kick people from guild?

[wild cypress]

I thank, Vicksin

[compact turtle]

Alr I applied to Firespore

I swear Autobattle feels slow even with 2x + 2x game speed

[torn mountain]

We’re used to 4x

[steep current]

i'm pretty sure 2x does not work in autobattle still

can anyone test and confirm the difference

[twilit ether]

bruh why is my silas ulting a lvl 1 ira

[wild cypress]

2x doesn't work for me either

[steep current]

same reason as usual right? he ults the hero with the lowest health?

[twilit ether]

oh i thought it was the person with highest atk rating

[steep current]

all the time or only in auto?

[twilit ether]

oh yeah ur right welp

[steep current]

yeah xD always been that way

it's all good there's a lot of heroes in this game

[twilit ether]

oopsie

[steep current]

at least you asked here before putting in bug report

[compact turtle]

dang this sucks

[twilit ether]

im too lazy to report

[wild cypress]

only on automatic

[steep current]

thought so yeah

i'm pretty sure they know already because a handful of people have mentioned it, but if someone could take a recording showing the difference (or lack thereof) and put in #1265207446041792634 that would be great

[wild cypress]

vicksin, After I went from 3-16, 2x started working in automatic battle

[steep current]

interesting
might be that we unlocked it before we were intended to, and it wasn't working til then or smth

still good to know

[steep current]

verdict is no during CBT

[wild cypress]

thanks

[lusty nexus]

But for me is still unclear the final purpose of this test server.

If evaluated positively, will the changes be made on live server?

• Will we have to restart from 0 on live server?

• We will stay with our stuff but only with the part of changes changed ( like new pet system)

• Will new “companion” servers be created?

• Will the companion and classic AFK servers communicate with each other?
  If no, then afk classic will be destined to disappear because' all new players will definitely switch to companion while afk classic day by day will disappear.
  In this way all afk classic payer HAVE to move to companion server and lose their stuff?

[lethal mango]

maybe it will be in "Combine"?

[steep current]

If evaluated positively, will the changes be made on live server?
no. companions is companions.
restarting
this doesn't affect global server. CBT accounts will be wiped on August 8th, and when Companions launches permanently, anyone can play starting from scratch on a new account. you can still switch to classic at any time.

no one has to play companions if they don't want to, it's its own thing

[lusty nexus]

ok so classif afk will disapper, great. it's time to unistall

[torn mountain]

A completely separate game?

[steep current]

i mean if that's how you feel, i don't see how that was the takeaway though

[steep current]

it's still going to be in the same app like you see now

where you can switch between Classic and Companions, and Companions is starting from lvl1 on new account

[torn mountain]

[lethal mango]

So Classic AFK Arena will die...

[torn mountain]

Man but these are a lot of QoL changes that would be so nice in live servers

[steep current]

they're completely different, I don't see why
imo the people who will play Companions and not classic have either never played classic or only started classic like 1 month ago
players can choose whichever they want

[bronze delta]

How do you switch between the classic and companions ?

[lusty nexus]

it's obivusly that old afk will disappear. Each day old players leave the game, new player join to companion mode. And If i want contionue to play AFK i'm obliged to switch server and start from 0 losing everythin

[steep current]

i agree there's some nice QoL, but some things like the Beast rework are not feasible to implement live, which is why this isn't just a huge update coming to base game
I do encourage you to take your feedback and suggestions to #1265174688670158900 though, it's very meainingful

[steep current]

settings > switch version

[bronze delta]

Tx bro

[torn mountain]

I mean I was kind of hoping for a complete beast rework on live servers

No more endless bait grind

[steep current]

it's anything past reso 18 that feels outdated imo yeah, i've said that one for years, ever since reso was introduced :// that eventually players would catch up and have nowhere to go from there

[lethal mango]

They are completely same. AFK Companion looks like just a global update of AFK Arena

[steep current]

they are objectively wildly different

[wintry adder]

good to see they put a whale check in at 6-4 already lmao

[torn mountain]

What whale check tho? You can’t spend in the beta test

[steep current]

i assume they mean once spending is possible in full version

[wintry adder]

a whale check, just a really had campaign stage that will annoy people off to the point the whale to get past ti

[lethal mango]

And what is the difference? 4 reworked mechanics? Lol

[urban tapir]

cant spend money

[terse nova]

If none of the QoL changes from companions hit live, that’s going to be very telling.

[wintry adder]

i know, but they dont design games for beta lmao

[urban tapir]

thats true

[wintry adder]

these hard stages will be the points where you get pop up deals and shit

[urban tapir]

i popped fr for that stage

[gritty steppe]

Has anyone made a list of changes between companion and live?

[torn mountain]

Nice I finally hit a real wall

Can’t progress until my bug gets fixed

[steep current]

too many to count, the whole game is different

we can work on that together if you were looking to make some kinda resource though

[gritty steppe]

Huh interesting. I need to get farther didn’t have time to get past ch2 last night

[gritty steppe]

Would be fun but I said I would do stuff with the guide list and then dropped the ball on that so 😓

[azure idol]

@steep current restarting the game has stopped us from loading in. know whats going on?

[gleaming wolf]

I have the same complaint

[grizzled parrot]

how does 6-4 look like?

[azure idol]

scary if what ive heard is right

[oblique trellis]

[grizzled parrot]

OG afk had some really scary stages before. like triple tasi stages.

[azure idol]

fr

[steep current]

game is down guys, please wait for update

[steep current]

real and understandable

[grizzled parrot]

How does the stage look like?

[azure idol]

this pin worthy imo

[torn mountain]

Should I close the game? I’m still in it

[steep current]

no

you can still play

[azure idol]

it works if you stay

[torn mountain]

[azure idol]

lucky you huh wout

[steep current]

i bit the bullet to test for yall it literally just went down yeah, cuz i just did a repair game and it was fine

[azure idol]

i closed the game to make sure for dolphin lmao

[torn mountain]

Rekt, I’m passing all of you in campaign now

[steep current]

we both did

[azure idol]

[twilit ether]

Hehe i scammed u

[gleaming wolf]

I should have stayed. It kept on showing to restart the game so I restarted it

[azure idol]

[deft gulch]

Damn, i regret sleeping 😭

[torn mountain]

[twilit ether]

Rawr

[azure idol]

[torn mountain]

Now I can use all my scrolls hehehe

Oh wait..

[azure idol]

[torn mountain]

[azure idol]

reckon i could get my colour back even if ive left the server before?

[torn mountain]

Just have to wait 2 weeks

[rich gust]

This one has the mauler with the snakes. Won around the 20s attempt.

[azure idol]

2 weeks for someone to colour me?

[torn mountain]

Yes

[azure idol]

damn

i wont bother lmao

[torn mountain]

2 weeks per role lol

[torn mountain]

Game is down

[tiny blaze]

Ah ok cool

[wintry adder]

fucking POS game lmao

[rich gust]

I finally finished 6-16 when the error happen

[tiny blaze]

Right when i have my break at work

[torn mountain]

Time to push every gamemode until I can’t anymore

[azure idol]

[torn mountain]

Forked fate is kind of cool, would be great addition to regular gamr

[azure idol]

fr

lots of exp

i like

[torn mountain]

No more Thoran cheese!

[azure idol]

[torn mountain]

I don’t know why I said that, Thoran cheese is literally the best thing to ever happen to campaign

[azure idol]

you ok wout?

[torn mountain]

Yes

[swift token]

hm failed to update game. anyone else too?

[azure idol]

[torn mountain]

It’s so good, like honestly

[azure idol]

yeap

[torn mountain]

Maybe they’re fixing my rickety cart bug

[swift token]

😄 okay so good to know. then ill try again soon

[deft gulch]

We just have to wait

[azure idol]

[steep current]

if we get one more person asking...

[azure idol]

lmao

[torn mountain]

Ban them, ban them all!

[azure idol]

^^^^

[torn mountain]

[rugged idol]

But but I wanna

[steep current]

[azure idol]

[azure idol]

do it

no balls

[rich gust]

Are we guaranteed a cele/hypo in the first 400 pull?

[azure idol]

idk

[swift token]

oh supershy 😄 one of my mates i love to copy formantions from 😄 🙂

[azure idol]

[torn mountain]

I would love to test this

If only I could summon

[wintry adder]

so not only can we not play the new game but because they didnt make it its own application we cant play base game either

what a shitty fucking way to make a game

[azure idol]

u can

just delete and install again

[wintry adder]

[azure idol]

[gritty steppe]

Here’s my question though. You said companion content will go on the main afk server which makes sense. But are people going to have to tag every question with main/companion? It’s going to be hard to answer companion questions unless you’ve played it right?

[wintry adder]

[steep current]

[wintry adder]

is afk down?

[deft gulch]

It's gonna be a long day for Vicksin

[wintry adder]

[gritty steppe]

afk is kill

[azure idol]

stoopid squid

[wintry adder]

read my pins

[pale plume]

how do i gain access to the companions server?

[wintry adder]

[azure idol]

taste my pins

[steep current]

every day is a long day for me ngl

[wintry adder]

taze your pins?

[steep current]

prob gonna lock channel until game is back online if it keeps up

[wild cypress]

Same error for me, I had to uninstall everything, but I can't access CBT anymore

[azure idol]

good idea

right a message saying read pins

[gritty steppe]

Then people will spam main

[wintry adder]

noooooo this is the only place i can flex nitro

[azure idol]

real

[torn mountain]

Must suck to not have access to the game

[azure idol]

[torn mountain]

[steep current]

will they still if the most recent message says read pins and pins are "game is down plz wait" lol

[wintry adder]

[azure idol]

[steep current]

beta was optional fwiw, and bound to have issues
if you need access to main server you can uninstall and reinstall from app store

[gritty steppe]

[azure idol]

as i said squid

[faint sinew]

hey discord is pretty chaotic for my brain so please forgive me if someone answered this. i installed companions and it broke my game. i have an android. everyone's saying "just uninstall." how tf do i do that

[wintry adder]

uninstall the application from your phone like any other app

[wintry adder]

probs hold it down and press the big x

[deft gulch]

Just like that

[steep current]

uninstall an app? by clicking uninstall probably

[faint sinew]

no, not the app. the updated thing

the companions

[steep current]

you don't

[faint sinew]

so i had to install that, right? and that's what broke it

[azure idol]

uninstall and re install

[steep current]

you uninstall the app, then reinstall it from your app store

[wintry adder]

you just uninstall afk arena

[faint sinew]

ok thanks

[deft gulch]

Re-do 😄

[faint sinew]

will i lose anything?

[wintry adder]

no

[azure idol]

nah

[wintry adder]

maybe your sanity

[faint sinew]

thanks. i was so scared for a minute lol

[fresh seal]

Reinstall the game?

[steep current]

no provided you linked your account to something

[wintry adder]

mhm

[deft gulch]

Hahahha

[azure idol]

to play main yes

[steep current]

google facebook etc

[pale plume]

if i just uninstall afk arena and reinstall it on the app store will the companions server be available or do i have to download it differently?

[faint sinew]

been depressed as hell for a year and i can't really think properly anymore and the game is honestly keeping me going

[azure idol]

thats depressing in its own

[faint sinew]

don't make it worse bro

bad enough

[azure idol]

mb

[steep current]

;~;

[wintry adder]

i would seek professional help and not come to discord to look for help

[faint sinew]

but thanks for your help

[deft gulch]

:c

[azure idol]

[faint sinew]

i appreciate finding humanity here

[wintry adder]

none of us are trying to be insulting

nah its gonna be my fault again

[nimble perch]

It's not usually like this but even hte most patient people get exhausted trying to answer the same question 300x in 20 minutes

[azure idol]

[torn mountain]

Usually people are a lot nicer around here, but it’s mostly a group of people that know each other here, so we tend to be a bit more blunt when it comes to helping.
