too much
Seems to be every 15 minutes with a dance party every hour
I keep crashing every time I enter the anniversary area via warp so I haven’t even experienced the event yet
gonna try again rn
An anniversary event feedback:
/I don't check times in discussion/
I went to the event and found the free 4 tickets from the spell box near the anniversary guide, hurray!
Then I felt like someone outsider. No clues nor instructions. NPCs seemingly had fun but the area felt lifeless without the dance party I see mentioned in discussions. I searched around to find tickets but no success. At least I found a useful place: the cake table in front of the stage but that's just regular wax.
I was flying around, candle ran office permanent candles. I went back, still no tickets. "Is it a no ticket type of event?" - I thought. (But I know yet that items cost a lot of tickets)
I was a clueless. I heard "end of grandma feast" type of bells twice or 3 times but still no tickets. I lost interest. I logged off from the game.
I went on stage to get my last cupcake and became microscopic
if the warp breaks you have you tried going in the other way from vault?
Ooh!! Not yet, lemme try that method thanks cy
IT WORKED 
ohhh nice!! 
Don't forget to check the skylights for lost cupcakes

why do you think jenova is shiny?
is there an on going beta for the next season?
not yet, the devs are still dealing with the impact of the server fire so we might be waiting a while. keep your eyes on #beta-announcements over the next few weeks though, there should be an update in there containing the next season at some point soon!
are we not able to buy that cute dog plushie at all ? the one the anniversary guide has 🥲 i looked and cant seem to find it so i haveeee to ask
It's in iaps
13 is the max. Did you find the four hidden around the office? The rear skylight seems to get missed.
It's IAP and available in the shop from anywhere
ayooo elysian won the poll! congrats! 
YEAAAHHH

beta representation ‼️
I think it's a funny coincidence that the first day of testing for sky anniversary again started during my birthday
nice! 
Say I switched from Android to iOS. Could I keep my beta membership?
so basically we can only get 9 a day considering how things work right now? because the 4 free tickets from the box likely wont make to live
You’ll have to wait for another invite wave to join the iOS beta
What about the progress I made on Android? Would I lose all that?
just use the same account login
selling my soul to skybot if we get a season teaser today or tomorrow 
Hopefully anything ab the new season this week 
Where is the memorial located
The memorial is located off to the right side of Starlight Desert, in that weird area where there’s no clouds. You need to walk through it.
(If you’ve done the TLP quests you’ll recognize it.)
Oh
i wonder if it has an actual name other than Sky Memorial 
I don’t actually know? I’ve just called it the Memorial because while it’s for the late passing worker, other people have used it for lost family or friends.
genuinely thought it was Called "Land of Tears" or something, was looking around the wiki (the supposedly area was added during TLP)
Can’t confirm, I didn’t get past Isle during TLP. 😭
Can I change the light panel’s color which is in the front of the stage? If the answer is yes, how to do it?
The floor? Just walk on it
I have a problem playing Sky, I can't hear the game sound (although I can hear the sound on other apps like YouTube, video). So is it a game bug? (when I put on headphones, I still hear it normally)
It happens to me when the "dance season" starts, I can't hear the music or anything else, so I have to restart the game, sometimes it fixes, some doesn't
@fervent ridge, Beta testers do not receive information in advance and no one knows when something will happen. Please check out #news for Live announcements and #beta-announcements for what's currently being tested in Beta. 
Performance Guide as announcer
DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION!
CHILDREN OF THE DANCING SKY REMIX!
Is anyone else’s beta crashing constantly?
Could be. Also, the game is meant to be played with headphones anyway because of the sound range (some things are really soft while others are loud)
Is the sax and music dj booth supposed to be in live yet? I thought the ingame memo in live said that it was coming in DoMusic in a few weeks
Is the Jenova spirit’s hairstyle exclusive to the Jenova spirit and isn’t obtainable in game?
been hanging around the anniversary stage for half an hour now. Got ONE (1) cupcake from the performances. there's 3 squares left on stage. not sure if that means 3 more cakes to go? there don't seem to be more performances since the first one I joined.
Meditating Monastic's Hairstyle from Vault Constellation 
oop, something just happened, 3 plates became 2 but no cupcake appeared
the anniversary made me cry for no reason ☹️☹️ i think i heard through the eyes of a child ???
I've had better luck with cupcakes by visiting the stage near the top of the hour. (Eg. xx:00 - xx:10 - xx:20) The birthday song always seems to play at xx:30 and provides the cupcake worth x2 tickets.
The last 20 minutes of the hour don't have performances that spawn cupcakes.
Definitely #beta-feedback about it (copypasta this message is great too). They are currently especially asking for feedback about it to make adjustments to it
man i don't like that getting tickets, which are a limited currency only obtainable for 2-3 weeks, is scheduled now
with any other currency we have you can just decide when you want to collect it, but this isn't the case with anniversary
It's a cute idea in theory but not so fun in practice 
yeah at this point collecting 10+ candles is faster or about the same as collecting the anniversary tickets 
I don't want to say I told you so, but I kind of did and everyone kept saying "it only takes 5mins to collect, stop complaining" 
Shards are scheduled, grandma and turtle are scheduled, I feel this game is limiting me almost to impossible with schedules
The game is designed to keep you playing as often as possible, for as long as possible. It's logical for an online MMO with the main focus on collecting items to be this way
This is definitely not the motivating way for me to keep online engaged
but with those you have either have alternatives, or there is no 2-3 week time limit (anything that requires AC is not only available for a short time)
but agree with the schedules; one reason why I wasn't so quick to accept tickets is because it's yet another daily task I'd have to complete 
I'll just skip the anniversary (in live too) if it stays like that. It won't hurt amongst so many item choices in the game
Me neither, Tib.
I'm just surprised so many people don't seem to realise this is how the game works. I'm not saying it's necessarily bad, but it's good to be aware so that you can make an informed choice about your engangement in the game
To be honest, I find the ticket system to be "the emperor's new clothes", because it doesn't alleviate candle running, it just replaces it with something else equally grinding/monotonous
yeah same I'll probably get the hat thingie and then stop since I think that some cosmetics/props are just not worth the effort (days of love arc 😭)
still, if you introduce a whole system that's supposed to lift some weight off of players' shoulders, then this really isn't the way to do that
I will put office for 2 minutes in my cr route during the event but that's all how I afford myself to care about the event in its current mechanism
oh that's an interesting way to word it
like it doesn't really address the real currency problems, but is enough to "divert the attention" in a way
To be honest, yes tickets system was communicated as lifting weight off and they do have such intentions too, but I'm sure they also want to try out ways keeping users online longer, because that looks great on paper (with reusing codes, to keep time code ratio optimal)
Yes, because from my understanding people were looking for a way to take a break from the game by not having to log in every day. But TGC chose to interpret that as a break from candle running specifically
Tickets are not there to stop us from grinding. if that was the case we would have a converter if it was really about alevieting stress when it comes to collecting things. Its to funnel people into engaging with specific aspects of the game namely events.
The thing that was happening was that users cr'd so they had a huge reservoir of candles, bought all event items on day one and then didn't log in again during the rest of it. With the ticket system nobody gets the items on first day and everybody has to log in every day, which probably looks a lot better for the investors of the game
this is true. but I can say personally it makes me not want to play at all when there isnt an event and im sure many feel this way.
nothing wrong with trying to keep their players active
i just wish the events actually felt engaging, but rn I feel forced to go online and basically do another set of dailies
for me, days of music felt the most engaging since I just like harmony hall, but even that got a bit dull after a while
Although there have been newer player who appreciate not having to choose between TS and their candles to buy something in the event.
But yea mostly it's to encourage engagement with the events more
(also lets chance for new players to get items instead of the shock of a 175 candle rainbow cape)
This system feels punishing for those who invested beforehand collecting excess candles. If i knew this system was coming i probably would not have CR daily after completing TS. Maybe thats just my feelings, but i feel i could have saved a lot of time grinding and i feel all my past effort is for naut.
the way to solve the problem of 175 candle rainbow cape is to not release capes for 175 candles 😭 looking at days of nature cape
Isn't that the point by TGC? To avoid people investing in cr as much?
ticketed items will also propably return for some absobinant amount of candles the following years too. Its really just passing the problem down to the next set of new players.
It is the point, at least according the blog posts and other comments from TGC. But the way the ticket system is set up doesn't really make it any less frustrating, as we can see in QnH
Also, there is no reason to have an item cost 175 candles other than to "encourage" players to stay in the game longer and more often
yes but there are many of us that already HAVE invested. so all of our time was basically wasted since there is not much use for candles if you finish ts/base constellations
i really wonder what the tickets to candles conversion rate will be for returning cosmetics 🤔 1 to 1? more? less? (definitely not less)
above all else i think the system needed more time here before going to live because 90% of my friends were like what is a ticket. Maybe introduce it with a cheaper item vs the currently most expensive ticketed item so people could have more leeway while learning and understanding the new currency.
Of course right now...but surely tgc are looking to move the focus away from constantly cr-ing.
So we all ease off and slowly use up candles on other things or we get a trade system in game ( although that feels as far fetched as a light all button)
Whenever I’m playing beta with my ps4 controller, it feels like the right stick has drift sometimes, and I thought that was impossible
I think it's dangerous to believe any gaming company has your best interest in mind
the point im making is that older/candle rich players are the ones that are kinda losing the most. They invested lots of time grinding already and now there is nothing to use those candles on its disheartening to see all the time (or worse, money) you spent become obsolete.
if grinding was an issue they could reduce costs of new items, even if they dont reduce old item costs for consistency/fairness sake. But they continually up costs of newly introduced items every time we get a repeat of an event, so its clear its not the grind they care about.
How long will this years anniversary event last?
Check #beta-announcements
its 2 weeks long in beta may be longer in live
I really wish I didn’t blow all my candles on trying to get stuff from gw
I’m down to 41 candles
Also I’m wondering if there’s any way to get the ps or switch starter packs in beta? Or are they just unobtainable
The tickets are extremely confusing for rainbow mainly due to the inconsistent amounts you can collect you cant really guess which days are okay to miss.
@fringe lark PS pack never came to beta switch pack was available for a short time back in 2021 but its no longer obtainable.
I wanted to say that I’m very glad the depressed ts came so early after I started beta, as the hairstyle is so nostalgic for me. It was my main hairstyle when I started playing sky and was a moth 
And it’s still my favorite
hello I haven’t been playing beta whatsoever for around 1-2 months and I’m very confused on the anniversary event, are there seriously just 4 tickets per day? I know I should just use the ”do it urself and leave feedback” strat and all, but I’m trying to find even some hints in beta updates and there just isn’t. the dance floor is so difficult to look at so I don’t want to keep blindly looking 😭
I’ve found 3 tickets so far and 4 from the spell shop, where could the last one be?
i think someone shared a picture of where the tickets are in screenshots
btw even i was struggling with day 1, so i will be writing a feedback report on it too
Tip: Muffins could be anywhere in the office.Not just the dancefloor area
But yea they feel even less obvious than the transparent bubbles somehow
I found four daily ones from looking around the office today and yesterday, then those spell ones seem to reset weekly
I found a texture error in office, a poster clips out of being seen when moving the camera. Should I take a video and send it?
There are 5 that are collected from the stage, after watching certain performances
Total daily is 9
- the 4 weekly
they kind of blend in too much with the surrounding, its kinda scary 
if it’s a texture bug then feel free to report as usual 
I want to get the jester hat TODAY I love jesters
can't wait to see qnh explode when anniversary comes to live
or tons of players not knowing that some tickets require you to watch the performances
I really hope they change this. Because theres no way im watching these performances daily for 12 days to get all the items. I will get the hat and dip.
Just gotta wait for the day night cycle to go around. It’s basically completely black there atm
aren’t the props like 40 something? that’s like four-five days for one item 
I’ve got 200 candles in live, and 40 in beta… how do I beta test cool new things without moolah??
/lh
The props are 46 each 6 days for each one day for the hat leaving us with a whopping one day we can miss because I doubt those 4 tickets from spell@box will come to live
roughly 1/2 hour if you sit and wait for them to cycle through
also I didn’t even notixe the performances tbh 😭 how long does it take to get the 5x from them?
Are you talking about the tickets for this event? Or an old one?
This si so true but it's sad 
Best way to farm candles (though i dont recommend worrying about candles so much in beta) is to collect seasonal candles even when you complete the season we get a whopping 25 a day
if they’re entirely switching to this ticket system for new items then won’t be as much of an issue anymore + there’s usually spells 
also are there several events? I mean the anniversary performance
Holy… yeah I see… that’s.. that’s worth it.
Half an hour
First perf on xx:00 gives 1
Second perf on xx:10 gives 1
Third perf on xx:20 gives 1
Fourth perf on xx:30 gives 2
Here is the schedule
Oh I gotta go now, I’m gonna watch anime with my teacher! A very funny comedy to be exact! Bye!
so one prop is 3 full hours of doing nothing but watching performances
Yup 6.5 hours total to get everything.
this is by far the worst tickets have been handled thus far. I hope they dont make the performances a requirement. Or at least make it one and done per day like the rainbow.
tried to rush in-game and hope I get the tickets from this then 🗿 ty. feels annoying to have to ask here but the dance floor is a bit too bright for me to stay
exactly. personally, if it was one and done I'd even try to schedule ticket collection differently every day so that I'd see every performance. visit office at a different time every day
right now I'm forced to visit at the same time and watch the same ones
So hard to find the tickets in office tonight cuz it's space day, it's so dark
though I have lantern 
also remember that not everyone is free to play at any given moment during the day
While having the performances be different would be nice I think personally they should give 5 tickets for happy birthday to keep it consistent or else we will end up being forced to guess when the tickets will come and either sit through many performances or get lucky.
I don't think the performances should give tickets at all
tbh i think that if they really want watching performances to be the requirement, you should just get the tickets from the first performance that you see on that day
I also agree with this, but if they have to do so the first performance you see should yield all 5.
I just afked till all the cupcakes were there 🧍♂️ and knowing live this is what’s going to happen if this stays.
I'm not entirely sure what part of "give us more interactive things to do in the game" translated to "you have to watch these performances to get tickets" 
The performances are cute but not really engaging. I mean there are a fee you actually interact with the npcs/things change but overall its just observing
I don't think I've seen anyone who has fully defended the anniversary ticket collection, so if this doesn't change I'm gonna lose my mind
spirits have more fun than players lol
It's too close to release for the event to have any major changes. I think we're only testing final polishes
I also want to make note that tgc isn’t worried about people not having time to play.
They killed off the ability for people to save in advance with this system.
thats what I feared
we're testing this for the 3rd time or so and nothing really changed even though there have been complaints since the first time we tested anniversary
The only change was… plates..
yeah, the ticket system is a little bit smoke and mirrors. rainbow is ok (tho it can be annoying to wait for the puzzle) but I personally found the days of music ticket search to be really tedious (so much opening and closing of instruments…) and the anniversary is even worse.
it’s definitely nice for players who don’t candle run to just log on and get tickets for the event, but for a player like myself who always candle runs because I still need to complete constellations and have many uncompleted TS, the tickets are something extra on top, and like toast said it takes away the assurance that we can save up in advance.
I guess for me, TLDR, I like the potential but so far the execution is tedious and a hassle 😦
instead of performances, there should be cupcakes raining from the sky 
Then there should be a cover of raining tacos, so it’s raining cupcakes 
If they made each daily give 2 tickets each that would lessen the grind.
Even if they left a few scattered in the event area having the tickets found in a familiar way via dailies would help since most people do those consistently.
the requirement to "participate in the event" to have enough for the items feels similar to how f2p players need to "participate in the season" by missing at most 1 day of dailies so they can get all items lol
I fully believe the “rid the vortex of darkness” quest being on daily was their first attempt at forcing us to engage with the new event.
And boy did that get old fast.
yeah I feel like somehow the pressure to grind is even more intense during events now 😦 when the currency idea was first proposed and items were cheaply priced it didn’t seem bad, truly quick to collect and low pressure- but now I feel like we need to really get all the tickets majority of days, and the tickets can be hard to find too which is a lot tbh
So, my ps4 controller definitely has some sort of drift
oh no, i hated that vortex in live when i wasnt a beta moth yet 
Yeah i don’t really understand why any of the ticket cost items are above 75… inflation isnt an issue with tickets and never will be so theres no excuse bar them wanting us to play the event for more than 1/2 the run.
At least Days of Color’s participation is basically just “stand on a platform and pray to the elders that the rest of the community have coordination skills” 
I used to do dailes every single day. Now I don’t do it every single day, I skip them if I’m too tired
before the ticket system, even if you don't manage to collect enough candles, you still KEEP the candles you collected and can use them on something else.
if you don't manage to collect enough tickets in time, they disappear and your effort is gone. there's more of a deadline and I almost find that more stressful, but at the same time I understand that most other players probably find it less stressful (if the tickets are handled well)
Especially with them saying ticket prices do not correlate with candle costs the following years. I really dont see why we cant have 75 ticket cape/instruments so people can actually enjoy the items during the event.
Rainbow rn most people will get the cape 3 days before the event ends💀
I’m at least glad that the jesters hat for the 4th anniversary event is just 8 event tickets iirc, compared to the other two ticket items 
I appreciate this because the hats never come back im glad they only require one day of “participation” to get it because that would stress me beyond compare .
also the point of tickets was to create an equal footing/starting point but if you're not on discord, how were you supposed to know about the bubble near the forest brook campfire that gives two tickets?? 😭
I also feel that the vagueness regarding ticket locations and number of tickets per day is unfair disadvantage to more casual players. in all honesty I rely heavily on social media and sky YouTubers to make sure I’m collecting the maximum amount of tickets every day because the total amount is unclear and even changes based on the day.
what if a more casual player thought they collected everything because they couldn’t find any more tickets but then didn’t manage to collect enough at the end of the event?? how sad
And lets not forget some people got access to the event 3 days early and currency was not reset nor were people that were on other platforms given 24 tickets to “catch up”
omg for real, why hasn’t it been addressed…
It has, the server fire. And #news #quick-dev-updates
I mean like why haven’t they reset currency or compensated other platform players
I think they mean the fact that there are people that have an advantage which this system was supposed to prevent. Yes the fire was not planned but they should have reset the currency .
Perhaps they've been busy after the server issues.
Then again, they've never been prompt with compensation even when there wasn't a fire.
If they still force us to watch the performances daily for the measly few tickets by the time it comes to Live, I guess I'll just have to accept that the way TGC wants a player to play just doesn't mesh with my own playstyle.
I know they are going to be sending 8 tickets but it’s almost 1/2 way through the event and nothing yet.
Also another thing I really hope TGC stops is stages in the event. We will only have access to the wonderful rainbow upper level with the music for less than half the event…
I definitely don’t want to be doom and gloom because I do really appreciate the efforts at changes like spirit groups and event currency but so far their implementations have always been disappointing compared to the promises
Can we collect only 9 tickets per day?
Being forced to visit the Vortex daily was the first crack for me. It was just so unfun and boring.
Subjected to the cutscenes that broke holding hands and piggyback with friends, sometimes the boat bugging out and not showing if you flew too fast daily was NOT fun. Then somehow it got worse when we even had to pick up the trash in a very specific order.
I know a lot of people love it, but I do not enjoy festival tech being shoved into almost all the new events. It was lovely and fit Aurora and Bloom, but it's just plain overwhelming in Passage quests. It suits DoC but seeing all those colored blobs flying about makes me dizzy. I wished they gave us the option to turn it off.
Having my regular candles rendered useless also took away my motivation to play somewhat. Am currently staying to finish up my season pass in Live + for friends, but I can also easily hang out with them in discord and there are fun activities we can do together.
also make sure to leave feedback on the anniversary tickets. I'm not sure if it can still receive any major changes before it comes to live, but we at least need to make sure that tgc knows that we aren't fans of it.
I really hope that the festival tech won't be implemented into every event. I really can't imagine it during something like lazy days
nature and music didn't have it so I'm hopeful lmao
is it bad that im genuinely liking the tickets
It's great that you like it! The idea behind it is great, personally just not a fan of the execution.
A lot of the new features just aren't intuitive to me, and having to check social media/discord/content creators just to make sure I don't miss anything takes out a bit of the fun for me.
Tickets themselves aren’t bad. But they feel at least to me like another chore i have to go on to do.
Instead of going and enjoying the event i sit and calculate how many tickets i need and if its worth me collecting or have i missed too many day.
Its merely displaced my stress overall, not reduced.
it's just always one step forward two steps back
i didn't like tickets at first but was ready to try them out. color and music were nice ig so I'm more accepting of them than I was before. anniversary really makes me rethink that 🥲
Music was the best way they handled tickets. It was consistent and everything was all in one general area.
Rainbow having somedays you get 8 others 12 others 14 made it really confusing to explain to players who were not part of beta because we are all used to consistency with candle rotations and amounts we get per day
but imagine days of feast in village of dreams again with it 
maaaybe if they change the way they look. a uniform appearance instead of the colorful & distracting napkins :') like make them look like snowflakes or something so they can somewhat blend in with the environment
Aniversary tickets are not moth friendly.
different events with festival tech should have different caps, like if Days of Feast had it in Village of Dreams, it should be max 80 or smth like that, to avoid crowding.
Or something like what karik suggested
i think the napkin design is fine, it's basic but it works. not too distracting
i dont get making them blend into the environment when they're supposed to mimic other sky kids too, yk, a crowd
i get where you're coming from, ig the crowd feature just isn't for everyone. sometimes I just wanna enjoy the scenery or go to an event to relax or just hang out in the area but when there's colorful things flying around everywhere and honking non-stop it's just somewhat overwhelming
an on/off toggle for the crowd feature would be ideal imo but there's just no way that's happening
@steady flume, Beta testers do not receive information in advance and no one knows when something will happen. Please check out #news for Live announcements and #beta-announcements for what's currently being tested in Beta. 
the size of the event area matters too. the office is just too small for everyone to go partying to
I want it to happen for the days of feast since last year was depressing just being alone.
also, the houses kinda reminds me of the project aviary trailer they released.
on the contrary I kind of enjoyed the solitude/quietness of feast- hanging out with belonging elder listening to ode to joy by the fire while it snowed outside was really comforting and peaceful 🥺
I’ve loved a lot of the improvements TCG have made like mask clipping with hair, piggy still attach when u sit or tp back home and huggable plushies. I just wish for the crowd mode not to be shoved into every event.
I wanna own a house in the Dreams area tbh
Where are you New season 
It’s under your porch.
Woe! WAFO Waffle be upon ye! 🧇 
If the next TS is one that takes my candles away then the least TGC could do to help the pain is to give us a season teaser 
Hi are the block system have change in beta?
What do you mean? It’s the same as in live iirc!
I have returned 
I had questions about ticket system.. are they gone after the end of event or we can keep it for next event 🤔
goneeee
Ohh.. That's why the tickets shaped bubble 🧜♀️
I've already left it in feedback a while ago, but I feel like there should be less tickets, and they should be more obvious to collect, with cheaper items. I feel like it could be better if it was actually more like season, with 6/5 tickets a day, and items that are not more expensive than 50.
I feel like the current numbers are just too big, it makes it harder to keep track if you've collected everything, and the item price feels kinda intimidating too.
With rainbow, I find it tedious bc the area is just so big, and the bubbles just don't pop off well enough at all. It's also annoying that the daily amount is so inconsistent, it makes it even harder to plan.
I did enjoy the days of music though, but I wished that all the numbers were just lower
how many ticket we can find in beta? and where is it
The new ticket system was designed to ease the stress and confusion for new players. However, I noticed that old players struggle to find new tickets, and feel more perplexed. Wouldn't this make it harder for new players to grasp the game and decide to quit even uninstall the game?
Especially the tickets for the anniversary event
That's just moth experience though. If you start during a season you don't know daily, you don't know season candles, you're unlikely to get many items. It's similar in that regard. So I don't see how is that much more confusing, especially when there are still candle items as well.
I think it's nice that the ticket system frees up some candles for other stuff, but it's just not implemented perfectly
@upbeat ore, Beta testers do not receive information in advance and no one knows when something will happen. Please check out #news for Live announcements and #beta-announcements for what's currently being tested in Beta. 
Ticket system can be a moderately graspable system and and also can reduce stree. But rn it doesn't feel like it
Musical notes were the easiest to find. Bubbles are hard to see from afar, I navigate by napkins: if there's a lot of players in one spot, the chances are there's a bubble.
But cupcakes are just gray in the night lighting.
I would love if they had a glow similar to winged light and spirits
that ring of light, you know? I feel like it would be easier to spot and still fun to find
I vividly remember that I downloaded and played Sky for two days when it was launched on the app store, but I uninstalled it because I didn't understand the game, and as a result I missed the deer head outfit.
I think half of the explanation of how tickets or seasons and seasonal candles works is left with the players. It's like the social help gameplay loop of the game (you know where we help new players with wl, spirits etc.)
Omg yes, but the glowing orb could be a bit smaller
imo, the issues of the new ticket system is
- Looks & Placement of the tickets; sometimes it's hard to see the bubbles, cupcakes. Especially this Anniversary testing, with all the fest tech color, music etc, i truly felt overwhelmed searching for the event cupcakes.
(i think it is valid forcing us to watch performances to get cupcakes. we can get wax from the cake nearby while waiting the performance ongoing anyway)
-it feels cater more towards old players (that has lotsa candles) than new players. Daily, i only need to grind for tickets and just grab any wax i got along the way, and quit or hangout with friends. In 5-6 days, i could get the event items. Is this good with new players? Doubt it with the spirits joining in + TS along the duration of the events. Cause FOMO culture.
Yes, ticket system was good for new players in doc and domu. But in anniversary you have to spend extra 40 minutes on 9 tickets, I'd rather skip one ts and only have to cr
Here's the thing I'm afraid about. If tickets aren't implemented well, it will be a redundant gameplay element
day of music at least had little pop up saying tickets are hidden behind instruments, for anniversary it was just confusion after confusion to me
Now think back at Rainbow i feel like replacing the bubbles with colored orb would have been easier to spot
But isn't it the older players who complain about not being able to buy the new item day one, and about their candles being useless now? 
I think it's nice for newer players who could just do daily and tickets and a little bit of wax, it's better than collecting candles for both event and ts
If you talk to ktjn (at the bar), they give you some hints as well.
I don’t really mind that we need to look around for the tickets. As a somewhat older player, it feels refreshing & new.
However, I do think it would be efficient if - at the start of the event - we would be notified just how much tickets we can get in that day. If we know “it’s 4 in the area, 5 with performances” the endless search also stops when you get them.
@dry ibex, Beta testers do not receive information in advance and no one knows when something will happen. Please check out #news for Live announcements and #beta-announcements for what's currently being tested in Beta. 
If your afraid that your job is in danger, just look at skybot /jk
Oop, I reread the blog post. It was stated in the blog! For DoR We get 8 tickets on the daily, and 12 on weekends
I think that we just need a good and intuitive way to get informed about how much tickets and how to get the tickets but not make the player feel dumb as well.
This new ticket requires players to stay online for 40 minutes every day on a specific map, which is hard for many players to accept. I hope that at least users can get the ticket without having to watch the 40-minute performance again every day after they watch it for the first time.
But there's also a possibility of a rainbow daily and 4 more tickets. And extra 2 tickets on the weekends. It's 8-14 tickets. It's really inconsistent
I think the blog posts they make with every event explain it well enough! Because to be honest, DoR testing (first rounds) was confusing to me, but in Live it did come together well.
Anniversary testing can have some tweaks - I mostly worry about the noise from the constant honking, the flashing lights, and the duration of the performances in order to get tickets.
Yes please. Look, if there would be no tickets, I'd spend 1 hour on 15 tickets everyday and skip 1 ts. But with tickets I have to spend 40 minutes on the concert and then 1 hour on a cr??
Ahhh you’re right!
On the other hand, they did give us some error margin. We don’t need to collect all tickets every day (in Live) in order to get the IGC cosmetics
Yes, but you still have to collect all for ten days at least. I feel like it's not very good in a 14 days event
oh i didn't know that, i think i missed Ktjn hints a couple of times
honestly i had a lot of issue with the tickets and anniversary concert i don't even know where to start lol (most is just how nauseating it's for me to try collect all 8 tickets)
Yeah ngl, I watched Aurora concert like 5 times in December... 5 in a month... 10 in 14 days sounds tiring
Or after I watch the 40-minute performance for the first time, I can get the tickets (which from the performance part) by completing the daily tasks (or staying online for enough time in any place) every day.
I think in general, with every change in a company there is some resistance. But the overall experience (of new and older players) will get better with the new currency system.
It is more accomodating, but (esp) for anniversary testing it does need some tweaks to it.
I think everyone will have some great feedback points for TGC to consider 
Yep, ticket system is overall nice, but in anniversary its usage is just not it
Btw hi Sofia!
i can only find 3 anyone know where is the last one
Helppp my friend didn't make it into the invite wave sadly so she's been asking me every single day if we know anything about the upcoming season yet and I'm running out of variations to tell her "we don't know anything yet, please be patient, hun" 
Reply with waffles 
if she has the beta updates ping role then she'll know when we know lol
the stars are not in position for this tribute. stars. can't do it. not today.
“the planets are not align yet”
The lack of doot, not even a season teaser at the very least, is staring to send beta Skykids crazy 
Me watching on a BETA party while selling WAFO Waffles packs 
Hehe she does but she read about the "back end updates" and thus suspected it might include the season for some reason XD <3
it's so funny how for days of sky we get spinny floating cupcakes to collect
every time I see them I can't help but laugh!
also forgor about the backend updates today and I'm not able to get online before it starts so I'll just be shaking the beta fence asking to be let in until whenever the stuffs are finished 
rip 
They're spinning?? I can't even see that..
me and one of my friends just died in the dying place and we just unlocked like almost the whole friendship tree 
Actually it did change 
Excuse me ,I dont know if I can ask that here but do we have a date for sky anniversary?
Omg so the skykid w the weasel mask and enchantment hat is Kyjn’s? Awww her skykids so cute!
The release date of the game is the 18th of july so it will be around that time
Thanks ! I saw people talking about next week (for some reason) and I panicked lol
They may be referring to beta only the event will continue through next week. But in live it wont begin till july so no worries
delay party 
Backend update is just a lil shy 
Is there a beta update today?
Beta update with white font is the new Jumpscare 
Waiting for beta update: day 5
Hey guys. How many tickets we get a day? Should we all day hang around in office to see performances? To get some? I don't have time to stay on game whole day! Or at specific times! I have a real life too!
9? Where?
Just 40 minutes
From ××:00 to ××:40
4 are scattered around #beta-screenshots-videos message and 5 you get for watching 4 performances
40 min in game? Oh. no not with me. I go in game some 10 minutes then off again. Then 20 min. And off. Not whole time online. Or a hurry grandma or geyser.
Here's the schedule! (Sorry if I pinged, for some reason discord didn't let me see what I'm replying to)
I have work to do. And not sit around at home. Exactly like the quest "In passage. Why waiting time?. I don't like this quest at all. Why we have to do all quest now with thozsemands others. I think tgc should rethink about it. It's not relaxing anymore. Just stress making.
please send that to #beta-feedback it's important to let the devs know cuz it sure isn't a very fair schedule as is
I ve send it already. Neverless. It's stressing me. And maybe others too. I just wanted make my option public a d talk about it. Maybe some others want change it too. And send feedbacks after talking.
I play, this game for two years. And I love it. But it becomes some kind of worse. Too much in event. Too much new things.. I know some begged for changing.. But if the change isn't that what we excepted..
Yeah, I hope they listen to the feedback and change this. Cuz when it hits live--

gonna hope something might happen
because so many of us asked for it, they implemented the AC tickets in colour so maybe something could change with anniversary 
otherwise like, for people who don't know the schedule
I had to wait a whole 20 minutes where the game did nothing at all because it was the last 20 minutes of the hour
people won't know the optimum time nor do I really want to leave my phone on for 40 minutes afk just waiting for the cupcakes to fill up
you dont get a cupcake if you come back to a performance you've already seen earlier right?
That's is the whole problematic. Beta players know about it. But normal players wasting time. Don't get what they wanted in the end. So frustrating rate is high
I just expect QnH to explode even more than it currently is while DoC is running
Hi! Is there an info graphic for beta ticket locations?
Please. And what do we do with the other currencies? Like hearts. And ac? If longtime player have. A lot of it. Why not making some heart items. In event. And a double heart event in time.. ✌️
I don't think we need those for events anymore tbh
just give more items in the QG tree that's available forever
otherwise what's the point of introducing the ticket system to begin with
Idk honestly.. I dont want think about it..
I mean maybe they could sell tickets for hearts and ac, that's the only way
But. We get just 7 Tickets now in live for each 2 ac. Not more. What. It's like a drop on hot stone. nothings.
I like the fact the tickets were only worth AC because that's a finite resource you can't buy your way into
the whole point of tickets is for everyone, new and old players, to be at the same progression in an event
Mhm, these days I don't have hearts at all, so I'm glad I don't have to worry about getting something cute for like 30 hearts
TIME FOR ROLLING
like consider how hard the anniversary hats were to get in the past
hearts don't come easy after you buy them out from past seasonal guides + the constellation trees
now you just need to do like one day of cupcake finding and you're done
The previous anniversary hats cost 3 hearts. That can’t be too hard to get within 2-3 weeks
It's true if you have friends
If you're a solo player, those 3 hearts can be extremely hard to get.
Unfortunately, the game is based around friendship and hearts are mainly a friendship currency
Yeah. But if they do Tickets.. Please.. Why can't it an event ticket. That you can use in others event too. When u don't have much time? Why they delet Tickets after Event. That's the point I don't get.. Starting at each event at zero. Is it really what they want? To force people doing evryday run. Not Rewarding old players that worked hard to get much tickets in next event?
@woeful obsidian, Beta testers do not receive information in advance and no one knows when something will happen. Please check out #news for Live announcements and #beta-announcements for what's currently being tested in Beta. 
Because new people join everyday and when days of music hit live they won't have anything to start with. It'll become unfair again.
We get new currencies every season and everyone is alright with it, event currency is almost the same
@blissful ore, Beta testers do not receive information in advance and no one knows when something will happen. Please check out #news for Live announcements and #beta-announcements for what's currently being tested in Beta. 
Ah skybot. Old buddy. Don't get mad. I sprouting just my mind free. Lol
Bruh are u kidding me they pushed the backend update back again? I wanted the new season beta update today 😭
Skybot 🗞️
New people starting in the middle of an event won’t be able to save up enough tickets anyway. With candles they can at least buy a candle pack, if they feel like it
Well yes they do want you to play the event. Let's say the tickets carried from the current DoR to the next year's. If you had leftover tickets, you'd get the items faster and be able to be done with the event faster. Which is unfair to the players actually doing the event and are way behind with tickets/new players. They have less people to help with completing the rainbows, and it'll be harder to get tickets for them.
I agree with you about people not being able to buy additional tickets. But what I'm talking about is future new players having 0 tickets to start with while old players having a lot. That's what they're trying to avoid
There will always be new players. It’s impossible to accommodate everyone
tbh even if you can't get the cosmetic item
you can use tickets on spells for trails and rainbows alike so it's still pretty good
not just new players, but returning players who don't have a ton of currency either
Honestly wait... what if they make old items cost event tickets, so whoever wants to get everything can grind those everyday. But new items should just cost as usual🤔 it makes more sense ngl
You have to spend candles only on new items, and if you wanna get old items you don't need to grind 372829 regular candles
tbh as a new player I didn’t even know how the basic game worked I was not concerned with buying event items. although I think the additional currency adds an additional layer of confusion for newer players and even more casual players
Will admiring actor be one of the spirits for the days of music event?
think of it this way
it's days of music, therefore only the spirits who have instruments will be present
Ah sorry, I thought admiring actor has the white piano
nah that's respectful pianist, as is in their name 
good ol duck face
But yes, the duck was in beta, so it probably will be there for music in live 
Alright thank you ^^
Only 19 days left for live season to end and still no beta update 🥲
is it a content update thats happening in beta or server side 
Sorry guys, I’m hoarding the new season so you can’t have any. 
I suppose I can share a tiny bite… 
would you give them all up for a pringle
……….
a Pringle is a Pringle 
(there is no pringle, it was a distraction to steal the season for myself)
We have a season stealer on our hands


uh
LOOK OVER THERE! AN UPDOOT!
(runs away with the next season in my briefcase)
So after I read yours. Then we schould start evry day with zero candles too.. Because it's unfair for new player because they can't get items. 😆🙄 What a Humbug.
Well it's much easier to get candles, and most candle related things come back, and a lot quicker. So they don't need to work as hard to get everything. Tickets even help with this because they don't have to grind hard for event items.
Any new system will typically not be welcomed when it is first introduced. Tickets are no different. I do think they did not do a good job introducing them to the live game with the current event.
The first time we have a new currency I think should have had smaller more affordable items so people could understand the currency better overall.
And even if not they should have let the currency been a consistent amount because most people are so used to consistency and plan around it but having amounts you can collect fluctuate day to day is stressful.
folks! while we’re lacking in doots here’s a question: where do you think the next season will be? (not where you want it to be, specifically where you think it’s most likely to end up
) im team prairie this time around!!
We haven’t had a season in prairie for so long!
Watch it be valley /j
Nah but fr methinks either prairie or forest
Well the recent seasons haven't added new areas really ..just alternative versions like night Colosseum , night dawn ..so more of moonlit prairie this time?
Edit: ok only if you skip remembrance but even then it was relatively contained
you know exactly what I’m gonna say to this
if we don’t get a new area im going to combust
but also remembrance added a new area so i don’t think a new area next season is out of the question 
I’m hoping for Prairie, but even without the bias, Prairie feels highly possible 
It’s been a long time since we’ve had a Prairie season and a new big area, so that’s what I’m hoping for but also predicting since the time feels nearly right 
Question how can I alr buy the violin but I’m not a beta player 🤔
Is the dance floor supposed to play music?
Beta and Live are completely separate apps. If you mean in Live, violin is on display but is not purchasable yet until July 7 or after
If it’s prairie and there’s a new seasonal area I really hope we get to integrate it into our cr like sanctuary!!
Maybe somewhere near Birds Nest 
Team prairie allll the way. Something happy and colourful 
Next TS should be boogie kid #beta-discussion message (TS schedule by Mimic)
there are two wolves in beta
one wants a happy and colorful prairie season (sof)
the other wants a dark and sad prairie season (me)
It’s not necessary to fixate on TS in beta, as that’s not something to test. Don’t get too attached to your cosmetics in beta, as all can get wiped!
ooooooo, what a contrast!! Where would the sad prairie season be?
it's usually only worth it to get ts items in beta if it's something you wear a lot in live and want to make sure works with new items 
Because they have a lot of big updates to work on, and have to do some backend maintenance to do so. They do so regularly, but the most recent one has just been postponed a couple times
Maybe the black butterflies bug was a foreshadowing after all Fenrir………………..
Wheres beta tickets?
I mean located..
In the office. They're muffin shaped
What if it’s that cave sustem you get to the left const gate of butterfly fields
Where IN office is beta tickets located?
#beta-screenshots-videos message here you go!
You have to watch the performances
I feel like the caves are busy enough
. Could be though! But feels like a small busy area for another seasonal area to add
I want a new season in forest ?!! Like it been ages there ...i would love to see something more in forest..the place is also cool..it would be.. such A FUN!!😩
is tomorrow the beta update?
Why would tomorrow be like that? We don't know in advance
I’d hope a new area of some kind like Sanctuary or the three islands that might be accessible through the caves 
I need a reason to go in there more
Like like how the Remembrance area is off to the side of Vault, just the caves. 
I just want a new season that actually has a good amount of wax locations, please 
we need a Sanctuary 2.0 with 3 candle cakes
Could be season of flight 2.0 soon, we have 3-5 new seasonal areas depending on if you count Aurora and Passage as their own area, I need a route through from Abyss and Rememberance so they aren't a cul de sac
Season of Walk 
You mean shattering?

Season of crawl
CRAWLING IN MY CRAWL
THESE CRAWLS THEY WILL NOT CRAWL
- Linkin moff
Haha, interesting... Trying to turn in the 2nd Passage quest to the guide gives me a "data corrupt!" screen. I'll have to uninstall & reinstall and see if that fixes it 
Ooo yes a dark prairie season through the caves I can picture there too!! It’s a little darker anyways & the transition would be smoother than entering sunny, happy Sanctuary and BAM, HERE’S SADNESS
I want a bright and soft season 🥺 pls no more muted green or tattered items
Crawling in my mask
These plants, they will not burn
Shards are gunna to fall
Big crabs all looking sturn
At this rate i just only need a fixed dateee 😓...of next update.. tgc is getting so hard on my BRAIN CELLS 😭
You just gotta wait, we don’t know when we’re gonna get an update.
Timing in beta
Wibbly wobbly timey wimey beta
https://tenor.com/view/timeywimey-dr-who-david-tennant-gif-7863239
No more updates I eated them all :3
Spill it out👾
Or leave it.. they will cook something tastier 💀🤘
@tidal nexus
I'm on Android 13, Pixel 6a ! It's a very strange issue, although I'm able to continue playing the game just fine after closing & opening the app. Passage guide just doesn't want me turning in the quest 
Thank you dear Wren
all guides said enjoy the events now no quests
NEW SEASON TEASER I’m so normal
HELLO
AAAAAAAH IM SO EXCITED!! it seems like a mountainous and bright season ahhh
Taking pictures omg

SEASON OF SCREENSHOTS 
I was wondering what that black ring was, and it was the ui for a camera! What a cute teaser 
SEASON OF CINEMA
looks like PRAIRIE SEASON??? 
BANGS DOWN THE DOOR
WHAT DO YALL KNOW ABOUT THE NEW SEASON
Maybe it’s called Season of Aviary?
I'm so excited omg

Nothing!

It seems they’ve been doing more work internally due to the fires
i can tell you....it takes place in|| Sky: COTL ||
Implodes PAIRIW8EEI
waaaa! I'm awake! 
Is this a WAFO emergency cuz of teaser?! 

Spoiler alert!!!
New Sky season takes place in Sky, you heard it here first folks 
Ash you card.
And it starts ||in less than a minute
||
Bruh this is gonna be like abyss where they implement a new feature with a season
my hype is intense
It looked like a nice lil prairie cave, I wonder if it'll make use of existing areas or bring a new location 
Hopefully this means console users can take screenshots without the ui present
I think that’d be cool
Anybody getting safari vibes? Especially with the photography aspect?
And the persons outfit in the video !
I ope this season come with the PC release, come on, my potato phone can't take it anymore 
slams fist on table passionately LIGHT GIRAFFES AND ELEPHANTS AND LIONS AND BUFFALO AND AND AN-
Oh good lord, it's Pokemon SNAP season /jk
If so. They better be adding more animals to the game. We’re at that point that looking at the same Rays, Krill, Whales, Birbs, and Butterflies are kinda getting a lil boring
"Buzz look!There's a new season!
Where!?''
Probably will take months to come to Steam (switch release was 4 months after teaser, ps release was 5 months later).
ScREAMING THERES A CAMERA FEATURE SOON OMG 
NEW SEASON TOO SOON YOOO
camera mode finally

I meannn!!! I think if they were to make a season based on safari or something along those lines there has to be new creatures!
Omg i cant wait for this beta update aixnw9xekfne
Yeah I know very well about it, it's just my hopes for a soon release 
Man that announcement was a jumpscare tho, I was totally not just admiring the fact actor is coming (pun intended) when the teaser got sent
my wafos are wafoing 😭
why am i waffleing
Can someone tell me anniversary ticket location?
The backgrounds looks like mountains, also...scheduled rain?? Or something? Saying this cause it started dark and rainy then got sunny 
Alert Siren
Attention! This is a WAFO Waffle emergency, pls call all impatient BETA testers to bring here to get WAFO Waffles ASAP
🧇 delivery!!!
i am being delivered as we speak 🧇
I thought the background was in sanctuary but mountain but i've never seen anywhere like that before 
We're going back to original pendant colour for this one it seems! passage pendant will sit with assembly scarf and tlp tie 
Just saw video can't wait for new season 🤧
The seasons logo is super cute 
im just excited that im not going to suffer from my switch screenshot anymore 
bubba, tlp tie is a ts item 
but i still hope its gonna be a special pendant like assembly 
Imagine we still get the hud in the pictures LOL
I know but it's still unique 
when the testing for this new season starts next week ✨ manifesting✨
@molten sun, Beta testers do not receive information in advance and no one knows when something will happen. Please check out #news for Live announcements and #beta-announcements for what's currently being tested in Beta. 
Why not this week. Maybe Thursday when the server backend updates are done on Wednesday?
🧇
Woe! WAFO Waffle be upon ye!
Hope so it'll be happy season 🥲
girl I know 😭
📸
I’m manifesting for it to be Thursday/Friday 
manifesting for it to be ||in less than a minute|| 
😭 nooo
but, im just hoping its a good feature for console players 
I think we should try to not get too excited about a doot coming given they've pushed the backend updates a couple of times, let's try to be patient and maybe the doot will surprise us! They tend to be shy 
the teaser gave me sanctuary vibes
Wow i can't believe we are getting a collaboration season with worlwide famous nintendo ip: "Ice Climbers" 💯
🤯
/j
if i accidentally manifested something i may cry
season logo giving hiking, camping vibes rn 💅
we gonna meet animals 
what im curious about is the emotes/stances/calls
but we gotta really wafo for that
New light creatures……

Predicting, new call and stance. I feel its about time we get new ones : )
new area 
and it looks big too
but what if it's another valley season and they just added a prairie cave forest rain looking area somewhere in the middle to lull us into a false sense of security then BAM THE TWINS GREET US AT THE DOOR AND YEET US BACK INTO THE SNOWY COLISEUM OF OUR nightmares DREAMS
That grass..... new season's in prairie?

WAIT WHAT? SEASON?
I'm hoping for more plushies : )
we are in need of a new call and friend emote
we need more glowing cosmetics ilke

Teleports to new season via guide from home*
" wow its the prairie caves! "
*goes through an entrance
Valley twins: Hi, again
I CANT BELIEVE THE NEXT SEASON IS A BUGSNAX COLLAB
New call please 
Eat WAFOs while u touch grass
they just love us so much they don't wanna share with the other realms 
how do you not see it's a valley season, people?
the logo is literally the two edens of hermit valley. 
real 
I need a dupe of the timid bookworm cape soooo bad like... it's one of their greatest designs lets do some reskins girls!
i need a new BIRD cape
what about the rain at the start of the video? 
We need new bird general
A new butterfly cape would be cool but a reskin ……. 😬 Nuh uh
fr though if we get a total overhaul of the camera feature im gonna be so happy, cld u imagine a dedicated camera with filters and timers and such?
cld you imagine if the camera didnt jank whenever you relive a spirit memory

that's just our tears from the aurora concert
BIRD UP!
I was joking about the reskin lol but i need that design reimplemented
new season???
edited : OMGGGGG
looks like prairies cave
also i think we're sleeping on a very important detail
Whatever realm it is, it's NIGHT TIME
Oh thank god. I got scared
I’m sick of the reskins </3
archimedes, no!! [mutes genchat] it’s filthy in there…
Speaking of, from the start of the video to the end, the ambiance changes? Slightly but definetly
Tears of the Queendom, you mean?
please god can we get more music sheets its been 87 years
no you need to wait 8 more /j
Tears of the Kingdom trailer theme plays with "The Seed" song
the area becomes brighter in the middle of the video. is there a time lapse in that area 
trailer got me twitching and foaming at the mouth
me when new trailer when new season me season when
I know yeti exists but imagine vaguely animal inspired pants
Also also I hope it’s in prarie since the only season we have with quests there is sanctuary 
the ambience change has me thinking the camera feature comes with a filter setting of some kind? 
Help 😭???????????????
what if we get a seasonally changing area and we end up getting autumnal stuff and that's why it turns orange please give me a foraging season
Also sorry I haven't been so active in this server, I've been juggling a lot in my life, and some of it is indeed Tears of The Kingdom.
It seems to get brighter then get on a sunset-sunrise hue
oh gosh i cannot waittt
REAL OH MY GOODNESS
HELLO EVERYONE!!
Oh no the cooldown what happened 
HI FENRIR!!!
Golden hour in sky, would be so beautiful 
HI REI ILY /p
oh yea, now that you mentioned it 
Bro we gotta Wafo for a while but I DONT WANNA WAIT 
This is literally every time new season trailer
If the season looks cool imma start testing
🧇 
me pretending I don't care abt new season so that it can come faster
Modern problems require modern solutions; eat the wafos
im thinking it might be a season where we take photos as part of the quests... and the mountain symbol makes me think itll be tourism/sightseeing themed :3c
not unless tgc releases an invite wave you arent 
i dont wanna wait either 💀
good thing im sick ill just sleep it out till the season arrives 
looks at teaser symbol Wdym we’ll go hiking next season
I ATE 9000 WAFOs THIS MORNING PLS STOP GIVING ME MORE JESUS CHRISTMAS CHRIAT
@upper bronze I’ve been in beta for at least 2 years 
Makes me think we'll get sorts of tourist cosmetics and/or tropical themed paradise-like kinds of clothing and accessories.
Hey all, reminder to take non-Beta chatter to our Live channels— this includes #news announcements that are not yet in Beta 
Regardless of how exciting they may be 
This is like pretending you don’t care ab a movie/tv show so it’ll load faster
suddenly I want to eat waffles
Me too
🧇
my mom brought home a bunch of waffles today i think that was a sign
ooo I was thinking hiking gear lol! since we already got tropical stuff from sanctuary
Not looking at anything, in fact I’m closing me eyes as I type this
Off topic but still beta
I love the bouncyness of both the DoM hat and the anniversary balloons 
It’s so cute to just roll around with them
NOOOO NOT ME
The only thing I can do on beta now is enjoying the violin until it release on live
i wish they were permanent cosmetics
they're just so silly 
no I didnt mean to- I-💀 💀
Alrighty comrades, back to anniversary testing we go
what are y'all thinking of the cupcake collection so far?
Oh no the cooldown got chillier 
the best thing we could do as testers right now is to narrate a watchmojo video while the seashell is blasting in the background
The cupcake looks yummy sadly we can't eat them 💔
screaming crying
Alright fellas what are we gonna put on these upcoming wafos 
I was thinking tons of whipped cream 
chocolate chips 
I can't believe you risked over 2 minutes of cooldown for this 
I kinda wish the cupcakes were easier to keep track of with performances or like idk maybe they could have a lil noticeboard that actually gives us performance times in game so I can keep track of them easier myself 
I’m gettin dizzy with all of these colors 
i want days of sunlight/lazy days testing atp 
bubba my journey is to make people laugh and suffer because i put myself in cooldown prison 😭
thank you tak
:screamfry:
I confess that I get absolutely screen-sick when I'm doing a treasure hunt, so I start collecting cupcakes after I see a post that gives me a hint as to where they are 
I ain't going to question this but I just had a cupcake and it was very delicious, cant believe they added the cupcake from sky into real life
i cant believe cupcakes from the hit game Sky:COTL are real
wait I forgot to get my cupcakes today 
Cupcakes are quite hard to find, wish they make it a different color.
I already suffering on live trying to find the bubbles 
I still gotta get cupcakes on my alt
Have you heard about the hit game sky: children of the light. I can't believe the game called earth:the real world stole FLYING from sky, now they're stealing cupcakes?!
cant believe they made capitalism from sky into a real thing wow
I haven't been in beta long enough, kinda exited to test first season. How long does a season usually last in beta?
It depends how much time the devs want to tested, some are extended, some just stays around 40 days, kinda
Wooowww 😔
For the first time a Season that is announced before we have in beta, lmao
do you think the new season would be something big especially the devs did back end (not sure what’s that but i think it’s something significant) updates few days ago in beta?
Season of Aurora was announced early too.
Ah yes
i forgot
somebody please I am in desperate need of WAFO’s after watching that vid in news
Ty! 
Maybe it's a collaboration season
i doubt it, if it was a collab they’d let us know
I really hope there will be music sheets in the new season this time 
||Altos adventure collab||
Hey AB sorry for the ping, but would it be okay to DM you real quick?
Sure
(I prefer pings, btw, so dw)
ayo why do my cupcakes always load in the middle ones first then the end closest to centre stage and the one next to the cannon last 
And Little Prince
Yeah, or make it clear in the trailer
This season just looks like a more nature themed one with cameras introduced
anyone got speculations on where it could be? right now i'm guessing it could be in the hidden forest realm, since the teaser opens on a rainy clouded area surrounded by mountains..
It gives me prairie vibes! 
It’s so cool how it slowly went from dark and rainy, to bright and sunny! And the big flock of birds flying past in the background
I’ve watched the trailer too many times now💀
valley season 4 baby
you and me both, I'm so excited!
Watching the video for the new season, can't wait for the new season beta test!
My google account has been burgled……Does anyone know how to unlock the beta account link?
i cant wait to watch beta for all the hairs n more 
A proper camera feature?! 
The season logo resembles a star over a pair of mountains, I wonder what this season will be about? Excited to test it out!
A mountain with a star on top of it?
Sounds like another Eden Season 
It would be interesting to have an eden season that actually involved eden :p
I can't see a thing in office right now, Sky: Children of the Dark 
TGC forgot to pay their electric bills
Time to get my cupcakes Alrite hopefully i wont be overwhelmed again
We need more calls and more pink cosmetics!
I know generally sky kids tend to complain about lighting and not being able to see with bloom, but this experience is a whole new hell, it took forever to find those cupcakes and I even resorted to a glow spell 
We also need more purple and blue cosmetics. :P
-Vash⚜️
HELP THE DEV SPIRITS KEEP POOFING AND LOADING BACK IN???
Can’t wait to test this season but also the season icon looks like the kathmandu clothing line logo.. like it’s so similar 
i have a feeling that this season will be in prairie
who suggest to have board on the performance time? imma send similar feedbacks bout it, i agree having a board showing performance schedule, "Upcoming Next!" etc board on the side of stage is great i dunno whats performance coming when im not referring to the schedule posted in betachat here 😭
I hope so! We haven't had a Prairie season since I joined the live in July 2020. Sanctuary has been our only Prairie season so far.
now that you mention it, in prairie only has one season, aaah hopefully 🤞
also is it been that long? 
The balloon hat spell given at the drink booth has different shapes??
Wait omg hasn’t it been like almost 3 years since sanctuary.,,,,,,, dang
Just realized I'm doing a Naruto run in the screenshot I sent in #beta-bugs-android even though I'm not a chibi
I was frantically trying to move and not crash, which caused the silly pose.
That teaser sure was short, wonder what kind of season it'll be. If it's themed around taking photos with a more fleshed out camera feature then that sounds like something lighthearted. ^_^
any idea when the next season will be live in beta?
I also resorted to a glow spell but I feel like instead it made everything worse somehow 
I made the joke in Season chat but I really can't see anything except the two Edens in Hermit Valley in the emblem lmaoooo
For real though, imagine a camera item you can either hold or place. Like you put it down on a tripod and then you have the option to also pick it up if you want so you can take POV pics
Actual selfies instead of us cheating by using greet
maybe it wasn't a bug after all.....
Eden, but just for chibis
hey guys, how to find birthday tickets?
So wait. Now we get a proper camera mode? Like Ghost of Tsushima
It would really cool to have a camera prop that changes your camera view to first person so we can become cameramans
I wonder where the new currency for the anniversary is, and why I can't find it
I kept going back to Ktjn to get clues for the cupcakes.
How many daily tickets can we get from anniversary
I wish there be a possibility of no ui capture in this new season
When will the new season be tested?
We don't know
or a way to turn off the UI entirely...
i know the wing menu at the top kinda needs to be visible, but taking a peek at your characters' cape is just as easy..
🧇
Woe! WAFO Waffle be upon ye!
Wait wrong chat
If it's a possible mountain season.. ram horns?!!??!
Even better, complete ram mask 
Ooo...i hope we get horns cosmetics
[i collect horn cosmetics in live!]
I would love some elegant horns like the feast antlers🫶 but overall I think it’s unlikely to have too many animal cosmetics since passage has so many animal masks
I just want a place full of candel cakes... HEAVEN ✨
I know there a ts coming for live but who's the ts for beta?
Traveling Spirits - Beta Schedule
Boogie Kid - this week
Crab Walker
Provoking Performer
Sneezing Geographer
Snoozing Carpenter
Tinkering Chimesmith
Grateful Shell Collector
Admiring Actor
Beta already testing new season?
Edit: Hooo I thought since there's something in news, you guys is testing about it xd
Edit2: wait or is it for project aviary?!
Edit3: oh wait that can't be, aksksksk I can't think
I didn’t miss boogie kid??? Let’s goooo
I'm really hoping the new season has less warm tones in the cosmetics cuz I am getting so sick of it
I need some more blues and purples!!!! maybe even some cool greens!!!
Expensive idea: Vision Pro Sky
No one in #general-sky-discussion care to respond soo I'm posting this here. I avoided a krill only to get notice and absolutely not getting smack
I'm still learning how to dodged it though but it's the 2nd time I've done this the first was by accident lol
Yes please. We need green or cyan capes

I’d personally love to see more greens and yellows in cosmetics since we hardly have any of those, especially greens, and now feels like it might be a good time 
Yes!!!! As a PS4 player since December [I began on Android], I hate that the UI is captured in my screenshots. I wish they'd add an option in the settings to turn off all of the UI except for when you open the emote menu and open trees. I don't like the names and bubbles above heads in my captures.
Yes. Plus we will also get the ability to record videos without ui
. We can record friends and make small movies of our own
I love crowd thing very much..but i want peace between mountain🥲
Sameeeeeeeee... 🫂 Want something vibrant..
whatever the new camera thing is, let's hope it's available for every player and not the ult the season 
Can't wait even for sec ... honestly speaking i had never been this impatient waiting for my own birthday!!!!🥺
Oh my god this!!!! I don't actually like that some items that have a special function are always ultimates or expensive items. This is coming from a guy that has gotten every pass from Prophecy and forward. I don't like it. Just keep it being really cool items, not a game function.
What do you think the new season’s theme will be ?
Space
*Wistfully wishes for space season
It looked really mountainous like we’re gonna have to fly a lot so I’m hoping there’s some bird themed
Or winter-themed, and we got extra floofy fits
Like, it just being pure floof like the Passage Cape ult
what if the new season is after the backend update??? I'm super excited
Day 5 of waiting for a beta update 
Yess... It's a feature... A feature must be available for all players ✨
As much as I love fluff I really want some more simple cool stuff that works with lots of things🤞
Sorry,where is today's Event Currency?
I'm not sure if I understood it right but is the next beta update soon? :0
There is a backend update tomorrow (if they don’t push it back again) but we don’t know anything about an actual playable update
What's with those office stuff in the screenshot area (haven't played sky beta doe
)
oh! thank u!
Beta is currently testing the 4th Anniversary event, which takes place in the Office 
well… I must uphold what I said 
Okay so-
Does the violin cost money??
..
aight jade cough it up Skybot’s been waiting 
oh wait… I already sold my soul to the devil 
Love how that was said like 30 minutes before a teaser 
Is there another beta wave for new tester?
I said that yesterday (in my timezone) teaser was today 
24 hrs & 30 minutes before the teaser
dont think so we just had one
50 min in anniversary.. felling so lazyyy 😓

Wait do you have to sit at the anniversary for s long time for something
10 min in spotting the 4 cup cake..and rest 10.10.10.10 min each one will give 1 cupcakes soo kind off...but i just take and do other stuff at phone while waiting..but it ..i can't doo it regularly!!! ..feel like punishment...after sometime. 😓 I know tgc intension is not that..but STILL...😫
That sounds absolutely vile 
I am so not excited for that in live 
Wow I woke up and saw a teaser
Are we finally getting free camera mode?

Edit
This is going to be so huge omg

Everyone is going to end up getting just enough for the hat and peacing out after. 
It surely give same vibe as nature one!! How gonna survive in live...with crowd💀
Done🥂....byeee byee betaa👾
oh wait i misread the time lol
Anyone know when the new season will start?
@thin atlas, Beta testers do not receive information in advance and no one knows when something will happen. Please check out #news for Live announcements and #beta-announcements for what's currently being tested in Beta. 
In less than one minute

Whatever the new season may be, let's hope tgc doesn't shove festival tech in it
/flashbacks to first quest in live/
my new cupcake strat is only show up at the beginning of the 10 minutes to grab it then leave to CR elsewhere
the only way it's tolerable

hi I'll probably be asking this everyday until the event ends, does anyone have the link that shows where the tickets are?
Excited to test the upcoming update 
New update coming Tomorrow 
Yeah no the birthday party drags on for so long it’s unbearable
it's not confirmed that there will be an update tomorrow or whenever
unless the backend update does something else
I think backend updates are for minor fixes and adjustments anyway
why am i seeing this triangle pendant in beta screenshots channel am i missing something 
new seasonnn 
#news message
^ pendant
oh i just woke up checked the beta screenshots first 😭
my friend gave me access to his play store account so i could play beta 💀 im so confused about everything and i still need to go to eden
i got 291 candles from free iap tho so that's good 👍
TGC keeps cooking something exciting 
It refers to the mountains
could someone help me in #looking-for-group-live 
That in the light of recent server fire sounds humorous
this is such pog
They got excited themselves and overcooked something in the process 
i thought beta chats would be more active ngl 💔
Ask in #looking-for-group-live and wait patiently. People go there and will see your message when they have time and mood to play 
Beta is not that active between seasons, you'll get used to it ^^
someone in screenshot channel just said wildlife photography 
i want cargo pants 2.0 
Cargo pants 2 is the last year's igc rainbow pants 
me too 
Days of Rainbow: Despite our theme of diversity, everything is just a recolour 
hhhhhhi everyone! i'm curious, what type of cosmetics would you all like to see out of this new season? 
more animal related capes, maybe. I love the raccoon cape but I need different coloured ones like maybe white 
Wonder if live will ever get the invisible cape
it seems likely once we get the other elder masks in
but hasn't tgc said something about it clashing with the lore or something? i remember reading abt that but could be wrong
Since tgc finally added their first actual tail to sky with season of passage... perhaps maybe for the next season they could add like... tailfeathers? Y'know, to match the rhythm masks or something 
counter offer; tailfeathers that fan out while flying 
Definitely put this in #wishlist-and-ideas-archived 
I’m so glad people like noob mode make videos explaining the events. Really helps to understand them
I would be so glad if I didn't have to rely on guides rather the game gave straight to the point hints! 
New season trailer is soooo cool....
Will we gonna get new photography skill in upcoming season? 
arghhh its so hard to access the beat thing andi cant turn it off
I would love to see a cosmic manta or a jellyfish cape finally 
same
if we dont see mega bord flyin around those mountain tops ima riot
Outside of cosmetics, yeah some more lore about the “main” story of Sky, could be very interesting to explore it alongside a nice relaxing season enjoying scenery 
We already have Jellyfish cape from Shattering! 
Hope we don't find ghosts there 👻..
and like 3 manta capes (hoping for cosmic manta cape
are there any other things going on in beta? i only see the anniversary stuff
What if after all these speculations we get an passage part 2 with dark and uninteresting cosmetics
I’ll sue skybot then 
does anyone know where else there are iaps to be bought? i checked harmony hall and office already
if it’s mountains based will we perhaps get deer mask ult 2.0 but it’s a goat or something
no more peas for skybot
I would love some more white pants... Like not too thick like yeti, something more slim simple 
Also, imagine fox tail cape... 
like manta pants?
a nice concept would be flare pants that glow at the bottom with a star pattern
man if we get a second creature based season in a row we are gonna be eatin good
the past looooooooooong period of just no animal masks 
we need to bring back the seal from days of nature..
I hope we get a decent amount of wl, 3 at least please, to account for passage and AURORA having none 
Oh and a 6 spirit season would be nice, last six spirit season was The Little Prince right? That’s that last six spirit season I can recall 
the seal was part of vortex daily hell you sure about that 
Alexa, can we get Elder Bird a chance?
Yeah we need more tight pants like sword pants or skinny jeans. Too many baggy pants
from the season icon & the camera (?) shown in the trailer I'm gonna guess season of scenery as the name 
Yah, i think they’d need a good story reason for them to do it again though
Assembly had 6 spirits because each of the spirits is supposed to parallel one of the spirits from the Season of Lightseekers
The Little Prince had 6 of them cus each of the spirits correlates to one of the characters in the book
Season of Orienteering 
Hmmm manta pants are nice but look too much like a diving suit 
I want something similar to postman’s/flight/rhythm pants but white

Vortex seal…. Plushie? 
well yeah i mean 💔 i dont think it should only return for the vortex maybe it should be an actual animal that u can find in certain places
i hope it will be a chill summer season with photos and sea
or a special story in the mountains..
elder bird needs to make an appearance, please 
I don’t believe we have seen it in game yet 
The story in mountains sounds so cool tho-
Also, the rain and the way sunlight started appearing in the teaser… so many interesting things are happening there…
inb4 we get sound of music collab
I'm mostly glad it wont be another summer of cleanse the darkness
The pricing for the anniversary hats should stay at 3 hearts
I keep forgetting this but when the trailer was released, for some reason I got huge pokemon safari vibes 
Clearly its a pokemon snap collab --- shot
Joking around obviously but. Man i am excited to see more.
If there are any new creatures there, i want to pet them all
🎵 the hills are aliiiive
with the sound of hooonkinnggg🎵
Ohhh i really hope the quests are similar to either Sanctuary (freeing the creatures in Sky + a manta uber to a distant island) or Flight. Would love to see new creatures freed, or grasslands growing as the season progresses.
And a little creature easter egg that follows u like in Flight area 
Anything about new season
Clearly the season is actually just a collab with Apple, and the ultimate gift is the new Reality Pro 
All still wishful thinking and speculation, we only know what's published in #news
i'm hoping it'll be more than take a picture in a specific area in each realm, rememberance drove me up a wall with the quests being boring
Oh the camera thing?
Hi guys!
Just asking, why there are no ts / season guides at my home? 😭
*edit
LORD the cooldown, yes office already dropped
Because ts comes tomorrow and season is over in beta! The office spirit should be in home though?
Oh god @limpid slate Nept sorry accidental Super Reaction. It’s boogie
Do we know which ts it is
Its okay sof
boogie man
Thank you
How do you learn which ts it is tho
TS are a bit behind (couple of months) in beta, next is Boogie. TS schedule by Mimic #beta-discussion message
Beta TS is behind live by a set amount, so we can figure out who’s next in beta
imagine snowing?????
imagine snow in prairie
the butterfly field covered in snow and you could create a snowman and roll the body down and up the hills
gasp
and sleds?? (that's what they're called right? or sleigh idk)
Remember to take any #news related chats to live channels, we don't know anything about the new season in beta yet, we're still testing anniversary! Stuffs mouth full of cupcakes 
lest they just increase the cooldown to 10 minutes lol
edit: IT IS 10 MINUTES I CALLED IT
uh guys where do i get the beta updates role (OH MY GOD THERE'S A 10 MINUTE COOLDOWN WHAT anyways thank you)
Nooooo I promise I was coming back here to talk about how yesterday's struggles with finding cupcakes in the dark made it less tedious waiting for the performance cupcakes since I was so distracted by the dark scavenger hunt that I didn't realise I spent so long there- 
Please give us back 2:40 cooldown 
Time to hide in wafo house
but yeah, it was really unnecessarily dark in the office yesterday, I kept crashing into walls and stuff while trying to look for cupcakes </3 definitely gonna feedback on that one
The slowmode has been increased to discourage off-topic chatter. We’re all excited for new updates, but please do take that chatter to our Live channels until it’s under testing here— this includes non-Beta ideas and such in #beta-screenshots-videos 
We’ll decrease the slowmode soon if Beta topics return to the main discussion, but it’s also alright if channel might be a bit quieter until we have new things to test.
We got 10 min cooldown? Oh, well.
Guess we're too excited 
I gotta submit my feedback wall about my beef with how the anni cupcakes are working but I keep forgetting 
tldr I’m not liking the whole idea of having to wait 30-40 minutes for a few cupcakes because that interferes with grandma/geyser and also it kills my device if I stay there AFK 😔
my new strat of getting the cupcakes is grab the new one at the start of the 10 minute mark when a new performance begins, then just leave to CR somewhere else, come back when the next 10 minute mark is about to start, and rinse and repeat
it's waaayyyy more tolerable lol
bubba I get the parkour time if you start sitting around the hour or so after reset 
I like to write down some bullet points while playing, and revisit them later to see if there’s anything I want to add
Remember that you don’t have to write an eloquent essay for feedback, and sometimes submitting some brief candid thoughts can be better than a text wall (especially if you’re prone to being lazy/forgetting like me
)
Also what round of testing is this now cause I'm still yet to see the giant parkour area or the krills no matter how long I seem to sit there
I'm always getting birthday performances, jenova playing the piano, the dev doing the guitar solo and then inviting three others up on stage, stuff like that
BUT NO PARKOUR OR KRILL TIME FOR BUBBA 
@ Miri and Fen, Sagomay's eyes probably prefer short bullet point feedback too, but alas I too sometimes get carried away in feedback and send paragraphs 
See I submit brief bullet points but also I end up rambling halfway through and I just kinda submit it and go “oops! here’s my brain tgc have fun with it”
WAFO 😭
CANT WAUT
How many different shows are there?
Are there more than 4?
And they always finish with happy birthday group performance?
I'm trying my best to cut down on rambling, the other day I submitted a short lil sentence about cupcakes having sprinkles on them
they're pretty bland right now and kinda look like cement muffins, so it'd be cute to see some decoration added🧁
Since I'm waiting for cooldown to post this, I went to add some doodles to the cupcakes, I'll post them in screenshots shortly
🎨🖌️
Cement muffins 
CEMENT MUFFINS 💀
Someone yell at me later when it’s not 9 am to actually throw my feedback on the floor
I do too
But I also try to give it a read later and make it as concise as possible 
mmm conk creat
The muffins look like cheap pillows rn tho HSHSHSHS sprinkles would be great to add

Hey Cy! (kind of unrelated to your message but) Just wanted to say that you're really talented, and I can see how much effort you put into your art! I truly appreciate all the funny doodles you've made, thank you for them! I also love your art of the deer mask!
It's a bit strange that I can't react to your posts... hmm If you happened to block me, I'm not sure why, I've always made sure to turn off pings when replying or messaging you.
Anyway, I hope you have a great day! My apologies if I did anything wrong. Take care!
❤️
I should seriously progress my beta account a bit more, haven’t even got all the base game spirits collected 
it takes so long… there’s… so many
If it makes you feel any better I haven’t even finished Vault or GW yet because I forgot 💀
I was going to get every seasonal spirit too and by the time I hit the middle of GW I stared at my screen and went: “is it really worth it” and ultimately decided to stop (wheeze)
I saw the parkour stuff yesterday
It was pretty cool! I sat for an hour waiting for the cupcakes
I should probably do the parkour stuff when I get some spare free time today 
dyou guys think that since the character in that season teaser didnt have a prop on their back, maybe the fixed camera is a prop item? (just speculating lol)
i thought the same, maybe we will have a camera prop where we can place it down then when we're ready we press the record button then when we move our sky kid, our camera does not move and have a fixed angle!
Miri asked us to keep this discussion in the Live platforms instead of the Beta ones (#beta-screenshots-videos message) 
oop my bad! 
If there’s no deer mask for this season expect me on the news
I just want a yeehaw 🤠 hat that can be worn with any hair. But probably wont see this till we get a wasteland or isle season
Yes, Free Cam. Finally. For 4 year's.
Doot date guess, anyone? 
In less than 40 seconds 
Ohhh can i ask smth ? Will we have a new update tomorrow?
Cowboy… Spirit… Must draw
totally wont be Kevin Ayuso
I’m guessing either Thursday, Friday or Monday, Thursday & Monday are probably more likely than Friday 
I can’t wait to test out the new season coming out!!!! :3 gonna be my first beta testing season ever

Ooh I love this. They do look really bland rn.
Not sure if it's alright to ask this here but is there an approximate date for PC Sky?
!wafo we don't know 
🧇 Beta testers don't know when things will happen in Beta or Live
Any Beta announcements will be made in #beta-announcements, and Live announcements will be made in #news!
oh wow. i think the next season could be about eden....
One can hope. We still don't have a proper eden season yet
Bruh. To be fair I do not wish another eden season in summer 
I want something peaceful and bright
ah i remember season of shattering
An Eden season would give me an excuse to go to Eden. Since I've joined beta (during Aurora) I've never gone there.
yall is beta only on mobile?
when sassy is ready.
Sassy, our harbringer of new platforms
sassy collecting platforms like thanos completing the infinity gauntlet
whats that mean?
Sassy comes as one the first spirits when new platform launches 
Sassy has a gaming room, they call it " weasel cove " they have every console in existence and a PC
rumour has it sassy has been eagerly awaiting new sky ports more than us sky kids have so they have reason to visit again 
Hello How many cakes are in the party?
When i will be able to update beta sky
Edit: 
No one knows 
Sever error
WAHOO pretty sure it’s maintenance time!!!
drinking lemonade with ktjn until the server kicks me off, taking sips between the errors 
i’m still sipping my lemonade nearly everyone’s gone 😭
server downtime now on !
Wait for New update 
Good night all
Guyzoooo are we going to have a season Update tonight /today 
!wafo
🧇 Beta testers don't know when things will happen in Beta or Live
Any Beta announcements will be made in #beta-announcements, and Live announcements will be made in #news!
even more people are gone and yet i’m still here, ktjn has spared me so i can finish telling them my tales about the horrors of purgatory between the server errors
We'll be waiting for the update 
HELP IDEK HOW BUT IM STILL HERE
there’s like four other cones that haven’t moved in ages and that’s it 😭
MAKE THAT THREE A CONE JUST GOT BANISHED another one moved tho
Reminder it's a backend update and not a scheduled new content galore doot, very unlikely we'll see the new season yet 
(little does she know I’ve been storing the season in my mouth like a squirrel)
I’ll just manifest Very Hard 
hand it over!!

Until we get any clear instructions, news in #beta-announcements, and especially the update in testflight/android stores we shouldn't get too overhyped. For our own sanity 🙏🏼
Treat this as a backend update.
I'm saying this because I don't want people to start flooding in demanding a rushed update 
we’re at an hour and i haven’t been evicted yet 
ktjn let me hide under the lemonade counter from the rest of the devs so they don’t kick me out of the party
the chosen one 
Chook you're immune to server errors after spending so long in purgatory
im banging out the tunes on the sequencer over here 
Until and unless there's a
ping
in beta-updates, all we can offer is another plate of buttery syrupy WAFOs 
guess i'll have to do some silly dances in live while i wait
Can I trade you a smallfry for an uwu in #beta-announcements 
I would gladly trade a smallfry for some space bar presses 
Unfortunately the only thing I can swap for right now is multiple space bar presses 
sits in update channel for science
I'm wondering, with backend stuff is it things we'd ever really notice in game or is it like general maintenance that we'd probably not be aware of?
doot hype strong, huh?
This update includes:
- Engineers being awesome
- Adjusted positions of zeros and ones
- ????
- Profit
but does it include crabs 
Maybe that’s the ????
Profit, by which we mean of course fewer beta bugs. Ideally 
ive made my silly little sequencer jam and have my silly little lemonades and am surrounded by copious amounts of silly little server errors
im in my element. at peace with the world. i have transcended server errors and achieved a higher state of being
i also gave ktjn an oreo plushie
Interesting
Leave a few for me to eat because I’m starving 
Dude, I love engineers
I personally like pyro better but to each their own
Considering we saw a "coming soon" with a seasonal symbol, I HIGHLY suspect this is that update >.> even if not the start of the new, the load in to prep for it ❤️
I know we aren't supposed to talk about the season teaser but I will seriously punch a pillow if it's not colourful, I'm so done with these dull and black cosmetics
Usually we have to install new builds to gain access to new content, this appears to be general maintenance for now, back to wafoing we all go 
Hi Sago!
Anyway, is there actually a custom UI you're coding in? How does it look on a computer screen? I would love to see some insights about that. (I hope you don't need to code on WordPad all the way
)
i placed my bloom picnic table behind the lemonade stand and i’m now letting my skykid have some well deserved sneepsnorp while i have a shower 
i need more purple cosmetics tbh and just more colour in general
less red things i beg we have so much red
It is coming soon, but I’m pretty sure that this is just a backend update as we’ve been told, it is likely helping them prepare for new content in a sense, but I don’t think we’ll be seeing anything new just yet 
I don't remember waiting this long for a beta update before. Very exciting

I don't know but i feel so strongly that we will get an update this week, DEVS, don't let my hope die
When is update dropping
In less than thirty seconds.
Did i heard a new dark brown season again??? Sure!!! 
guys sorry I don't frequent the group at TGC's DC. but please if anyone can direct me to the correct chat or if you can replicate the following idea that I would like to give. Well, the idea is as follows. all events are available the free spells of paraphernalia for us to test in our skykid. this week at the color event, i had discussions with my friends because of the new black cover for the event. well, I would like to suggest to tgc that there could be some sign in the equipment per spell to identify players that the equipment we are using is not definitive, but a spell. thus we avoid the distrust of our friends. because we know that there are hackers in the game... so that way we avoid the risks of those who don't use third-party applications to take advantage of other players... using a spell... and thus avoid denunciations generated by distrust from friends who don't know that we are wearing a spell. so I suggest that you have a mark on the clothing when it is a spell, thus identifying the players that that item is a spell and not a definitive outfit.
Hmmm, I'm not getting as much hype next season, I wonder what's going to be innovation in the game, if that photo mode is not editing but a feature, I hope it's a good shooting mode and not just a camera tripod for you to be able to take a picture, it would be wasting a feature.
just my opinion about that
well
-
this event is in live and you're in the wrong place to discuss (go to #cozy-sky-discussion or #general-sky-discussion)
-
there is a way to tell when people are using a spell. You look at their feet and there's sparkles - this has been in the game FOREVER
-
if you want to relay this information to devs, copy paste your text into #live-feedback
And this is why we are having the anonymous cape function you should not need to identify whether or not someone is wearing a spell
this also should not be an indicator of whether or not one makes friends with a person depending on what one wears
I’m also semi rabid for a gigantic deer to be presenting itself in the next season one so big that we can run around on its back
torture me with this cooldown jeez
Why do all that just to know if someone is using a spell we’re all just having a little fun here
@/TheGoosening Just ideas for the new season it isn’t actually out yet, since the symbol is in the shape of a mountain, mountain animals, like deers, are being brought up
Also man.. what’s with this cooldown 😭
Rain world rain deer
where are you all seeing stuff about a deer?
Unconfirmed info, it's best to not bring it up - we have no clue what the new season will bring and it's not beta content currently so it's best to move to live channels to discuss the teaser and hopes for the season.
The devs do look at feedback. I have had devs dm me thanking me for feedback, asking for clarification, or answering a question I raised in my feedback. You can leave your feedback here in #live-feedback. The mods discourage live discussion in these channels. If you want to discuss this one of the other channels would be better. I'd personally take it to #seasons-events-chat because they will discuss it with you.
If you are concerned about being reported the devs review all reports manually and would know that the report is unfounded. 
In another version of the aviary teaser there is a part where a peice of map shrine is revealed and shows a map with a deer and now with this seasonal teaser being revealed to be a mountain pendant there is now many speculations as to a mountain deer being in the next season
im manifesting deer with y'all
all of my psychic energies will be put toward this purpose 😤
I would prefer an option to remove friends from the constellation
why deer... i didn't get it
Do we have any funny waiting rooms?
i NEED sky deer because that means there’s a chance for more antlers which is another thing i NEED so, im manifesting deer too
on another note, still chilling with my server errors and haven’t been kicked yet
:000 IQ over 9000
Only if we can ride it like oreo
Idk but I hope deer is big bc I love giant massive light deer guardians
guys i wanna ask something
sorry if this is the wrong place but
can someone delete my message on the server?
Not normal people but staff or if their automod detects something suspicious in your message
Oh 10 minute cooldown 👁️ 👁️
#beta-screenshots-videos message we aren’t crazy there really is a reason for us to think a deer is coming XD
THERES A TEN MINUTE COOL DOWN?
which performance/event in the anniversary do you guys enjoy the most? If I ever get to experience the parkour event I would probably say that's a favourite cause it looks like a lot of fun, but I also like the happy birthday performances because I always join in playing with them 
we won't know until an update happens
,, speaking of. i am sure waiting for it sjdsdfl
I'm pretty sure there's a little flurry of leaves or dust around your feet when using a spell, which defines it as such rather than a permanent item. Is that the sort of thing you mean?
hello nastymold 
worth the cooldown, ngl 

Quick, use sneak emote! Before anyone notices you. It was just a mythical creature sighting 
*edited to add I adore you and your content, you're a beautiful person 💗
there’s me and one cone left in the anniversary area now 
well, know we know what the time my skykid spent in purgatory was for
he was training himself to be immune to server errors so he could stay at the party for as long as possible 
also fun observation there hasn’t been a single performance while i’ve been here 
I think there will be no update today
You sacrificed your account into a purgatory trial and now he’s immune to everything 
Didn’t the maintenance just end?
nope, server errors still going strong and it’s just me and my cone buddy left in here
i can’t believe i made it through 3 hours without the maintenance screen
Once they ping us in updates >.< that's the only official time we know its done.
Not the start of new from what we know, just general maintenance and addons
new seasson ? 7w7
collective foamings of the mouth can be heard in the distance i think we can hold on for a few more days

WHERE UPDAT
Gone I ate it


Collective noises of bubbling is getting closer
When will it be updated! ! !

In two minutes 
Everyone eat ur wafos and buy them in bulk. Gotta just wait it out
🧇
Can we have a krill plush? 
Wafos time!!? 
I think I have the beta updates ping role selected but I don’t seem to be getting notifications when there are new posts in beta updates. I do get notifications when people ping me in messages. Any one have any idea how I can remedy this?
the ping does happen, it's just that discord is veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery slow when it comes to sending out pings to a super large group of role havers
so it's delayed by several hours or a day
also the recent updates weren't pinged at all, they were just maintenance posts
That's what annoys me, people latched onto a deer image from a Neteaase trailer for Aviary and DoN and now everyone thinks it's a teaser for something
elysian!!! congrats on the poll win!
👀
Wasn't there a concept art from way back with a deer or something? It would be cool but it seems like they might have shown it for no particular reason. ^_^;
I hope we see some Aviary testing soon, I know it'll likely be later in the year but I need to explore there again 
Whose location is not yet dawn?
no new season in beta? 🥺
Absolutely same. I'd legitimately give my kidney to see it, I can hardly wait!!!
So many things to be excited about
Not yet, it'll happen eventually, let's all just be patient and eat wafos till then hehe

Im going to get diabetes if i continue eating wafos
I want to cook waffles now, by the time I make them, by this time the new season will already start on beta >:з
Update now?
🧇🧇🧇
Seems like they need a little longer
The update will arrive in 3... 2... 1 and a half... 1 and a third... 1 and a quarter...
👀

Cough cough
i hear spacebar noises 
what does that mean. sagomay. what does that mean.
I welcome new beta testers to our regular tradition of "Camp in the updates channel and get beaned by the space bar"
I haven't had breakfast yet, I'm so hungry,Let me ate a sky kid(Kidding)I'm going crazy if Its don't update
For those genuinely waiting for an update, we weren't actually getting any new season content from this maintenance work 

are mods real? I don't think they are. I've never seen one.
AUUUUUGH TELL USSS PLS ILL ACCEPT THE BEANS FOR ALL OF US JUST TELL US

GUYS ITS LIVE ITS LIVE
heck skybot I don't think the staff are real either
Okay @clear siren the update will be here in ||whatever amount of time it needs to be here||
If I give you two (2) smallfry will you do it 
Sagomay who? I don't see them 
let's hope so
Is it updated today?
I don't know what I woke to, but morning all - hope you are all having a great morning
...Now don't mind me as I vanish back into the void with some of those wafos I saw above... They go really well with my morning coffee
Pancakes
new beta tester here loving the waffle appreciation 
T minus 5, 4, 3, 2, 19, 18, 189, 188......
5 moth offerings to the krill lord
I'm scared.
Waffles 🧇 to everyone
A cruel tradition continues, it seems.,, the spacebar... I've been doing this for 3 years, sago. you cant keep doing this to me.. /lh
Beta update is coming in 5, 4, 17, 3, 6, 19, 12, silly looking s, beleventween, sandwich, waffle... 
THE SCREEN GOT ME NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
grand total of 3h, 45 minutes spent hanging out there before the maintenance screen finally got me 
lowkey wanna see an uwu after a lot of spacebar pressing
How would it be a surprise if you're all expecting it?
Will it be updated? Surely it will be updated in 20 minutes, right? I am so hungry! (twisting) (biting)(indiscriminate attack)(climbing)(screams) (rolls away)
Gifts can be surprises bc we don't know what's inside if there is a doot
Every time someone asks when the update is, Skybot delays it another day
no one ask when the update is. WGAT DID I DO??
It'll be before January 1st 2024 
Did anyone ask ?
WHEN'S THE UPD-(gets krilled
lol maybe a couple people
What’s happening here
...
Omg WAFOs

FENRIR NOOOOOOOO 
😭😭
A couple more days of update delay 
We need a waffle confetti emote... Can I have a waffle confetti emote? ...for reasons...
🧇 


everyone asks when is the update but no one asks how the update is
epic beta tip: if you forget about the update, it's gonna arrive faster 
I’m sure there’s a way around this
When can we expect a “read both halves”-message?

🗣️ EXCUSE ME WHERE IS THE UPDATE /j /sorry
What costs currency tickets in days of music?
So the violin doesn't cost tickets awesome ty 🤍
whAT HAVE YOU DONE 😂
a hairstyle, a saxophone, and spells iirc
violin’s an iap
That might fool a bot but not a Sagomay 
The hat is a hairstyle not a head accessory? Awwwwwwww
You all can enter beta now. It works
the update is.. ||a wafo plushie!!|| .. ok we need to keep calm.. the update will come soon, right?
You know how bad it is when nastymold starts joking about updates

May I offer a smallfry in these trying times
Yes
but no update
thats because it was a backend code update only. no visible changes on our end
Does the update prefer any fun activities or hobbies... Maybe like, I don't know, mountaineering? 
(crazy) (twist) (jump out) (shady crawl) (lick) PLEASE! ! !I am so hungry! ! !
The update prefers ||WAFOs||
i need wafos
waffle ultimate gifts when
season of wafo. all the cosmetics are waffle based
What if we make a big batch of waffles
we can lure the update with them
Next season is: SEASON OF WAFFLES
I see Devs active in a chat, I immediately think an Update's coming, there's no in-between! I'm hopeless
crabs became waffles with legs!!!
We really need a waffle offering sticker for times like these 🫴🏻 🧇
fun fact!!! the aurora emote menu can still be pressed with the scheduled maintenance screen up so you can have
for emotional support!
and yes, im still waiting in the office area for it to go, i didn’t wait here for nearly 4 hours only to not see the area repopulate 
I was able to access the game hum I'm confused
I love the amount of 🧇 here, it actually makes me crave some 
yep, you can play beta now! recently became available again
Fun fact for those of you who have been playing 4th Anniversary in beta: you can actually make waffles using muffin mix 
🌈 🌟
If I could send the waforeo emote olive made, I would
instead, take some regular wafos 🧇🧇🧇🧇
Devs love to poke beta chat a little from time to time and I’m here for this exact fun to sit and be like 
Best time to see the whole chat in frenzy

Wafos flying everywhere omg gibe me more 🧇🛸
We all have to get our fun somehow 😇
cement muffin waffles 
Sagomay doing a little trolling
