That feeling when you're trying to be as friendly as you can, but you have social anxiety 
it's really strange because i was able to download it really quick ;-;
@copper bison me too
I got in the first invite wave and google still ain't letting us in. The let us in meme does make sense now-
That being said I really appreciate seeing that they've updated the blocking system. We were getting sorted into the same layer as a blocked person consistently. They would follow us around peeping like crazy and it would really made the game less enjoyable. 
You should leave that positive feedback in its respective feedback channel.
That channel isn’t just for criticisms, it’s great to let devs know which updated features are working better for you and how they’re improving your gameplay experience
Imagine being a friendly human. It’s not that I don’t try, mind you, it’s that I fail due to my lack of self control and chaotic nature.
I think you’re an extremely good friend Ral
Hello Beta moffs
Heyy
Guys, is season of enchantment really over in beta??
Because I cannot reveal the seasonal spirits but for some reason I still have the seasonal candles on my inventory. I don’t know what’s going on...
yes, the season is over.
enchantment is gone gone, getting enchantment candles with the pre-order of next's seasons pass is a bug (or a placeholder)
There's no practical reason for an event to continue in beta once it has hit live. Think of it as a sign of a job well done. TGC let beta testers try it out, got bug reports and feedback and they straighted out the bumps. The event is good to launch live and beta's role in it is over. Usually it’s over in 2 weeks but for enchantment it stretched out longer cause it took a while for the orange light cutscene/ark shop to be ready
Can we voice out google our frustrations instead of the devs? Google's way bigger company than TGC, how come there's no progress from them compared to Sky's 
jk i dont encourage spamming. please DO NOT spam google with our emotions, maybe a well written feedback would be so much better
im sorry ive been waiting for lots of things recently and Google is one of them 
Thank you guys!!!

@mossy glacier it’s understandable 😉
I know google is making y'all stressed 😔 but think about it this way: you're already a tester, even if google doesn't let you download beta, you will get to help in testing soon ^^
You’re honestly not missing much in beta right now, lots of testers have tried out the new blocking stuff. ATM most new beta people are just doing early moth things: unlocking spirits, getting more wedges, maybe buying chair to oob glitch through doors cause beta is so empty.
take it as a little break before testing the season, there's a lot of testing to do ahead
Just do some candle runs in live while you wait for google to get their stuff together, there’s like two weeks until the next TS comes. 
What's TS? thank you
Travelling spirit :3
I was wondering if there is a way to write a complaint to google to point out this issue. WIth all this Corona bussiness there is a pretty high chance that they are just so busy working on an abysmal amount of tickets right now 
fncncnsnfv my pfp is crying
Ofc- the chat becomes active when I’m not here

Gtg clean
hope chat isn’t dead when I come back~ ily all! And I see more bugs have been fixed in the new patch! Whoop! 🥳 (well duh they have or else there wouldn’t be a new update- ahaha) byeeee
ya know I don't remember if I gave my feedback last night when I looked at the new patch D:
what happens when you don't?
nothing happens, but constructive feedback from different perspectives is useful for the devs. 
I know it’s an issue that isn’t really going to be solved anytime soon if ever as the devs aren’t really concerned ab it as it’s only a problem in beta but as most you you know, Friend invites don’t work correctly. Ik you can scan on another device but I don’t have another device, and opening in browser didn’t fix my problem. Are there any other ways to get the invites to work?
For me if I only use iPad and don’t have my phone with me, I open the link then take screenshot and then import the picture
same
For me if I only use iPad and don’t have my phone with me, I open the link then take screenshot and then import the picture
@primal pagoda okay, import the picture to where?
sky. you can do that.
Like how you scan a qr code. There’s ‘import' option
yeah
Can someone dm me a qr so I can make sure I can do this correctly 😂
i could, but my phone is dead so i can't ;v;
What I always do is copy the link to discord by sending it to a bot, and then open it from there
going back to my forgetfulness, if I submit the same feedback twice because I don't remember if I did already or not is it ok?

@random gull depends on if it’s something important, if it’s something important I’d make sure you sent it so I’d send it again, but if it’s not important then I wouldn’t as it might irritate the devs
Hey guys, I am new to beta, and I discovered there is a “no cape” cape?!! Or did I imagine that? 😅
I once had "Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~" censored as a message candle message in beta, I was like wha~
Each day it's closer to the cosmetics of the next season
yep, there is a no cape cape.
I just discover portraits mode
@spark lance
read the pins of this channel, it helps explain exactly what it is

@runic nebula it was feedback that the patch fixes seemed working from my device as far as I could tell
Was the beta cape in pre-release transfered to live? I’m just curious, and I already read the pins, I just haven’t ever seen anyone wearing it.
iirc it was more a complicated progress to claim the capes, but an ancient tester might know better
blep, you came to my rescue
Yes, beta cape was given to players to wear in both beta and Live. We had to make sure to link our Live account to the same e-mail/GC one as our beta. That was all. ETA an umpteenth time: There were certain criteria for players to be eligible also.
@kindred fossil thank you 🙏
Oh, and there may not be a lot of old beta players around in Live anymore. A lot of my old friends have stopped playing, apart from those who are Elders here and handful of others. I do wear mine fairly often, it depends on my mood. Sometimes it can attract a certain type of attention... 😉
thank you

@hollow compass I’m an old beta player... (I played beta before global launch)
Yey! We're becoming extinct, lol. It's nice to see that this game still holds such a strong position for some of us. It is a testament to the quality of it.

@hollow compass oop
yeah, i only ever met 2 out in the wild
"Catch me if you can" 
gotta catch 'em all
I once saw someone with beta cape in vault. They walked over to me and my friend then placed a table in front of us. We were like “ooooh let’s see what wisdom they want to tell us” but by the time we sat down the just walked away and never came back-
Lol! That's weird. I must admit I often feel a bit awkward when people go all
when they see my cape, because I'm really not that special. I don't know a whole lot of oob specialities or tricks. I'm just old in the game.
retirement cape
It was my first time seeing a beta cape and I was sad when they left. Just wanted to say hello

Lol! That's weird. I must admit I often feel a bit awkward when people go all

@hollow compass I bow at anyone who lights my candle like "thanks for letting me see you" XD I don't think I've used deep bow yet though
did they fix the one oob in vault for the first 4 player door? :,)
@random gull of course, I bow at everyone too. But it is sometimes obvious they do the deep bow because of the beta cape or at least I interpret it as that, when they just don't stop doing it over and over. And take photos.
Alo Vera, yes, I think they did. I heard about it a while ago, but forgot to check.
One of the reasons why I only wear my muffy old cape , i only put on the beta cape to uber new friends in or when I’m high on candle stock , and bored , I’ll drop a few through the gate.
omg yeah the deep bow over and over -and- taking pictures definitely seems more like they're excited about your cape. that actually explains why people did that to me a few times with teal cape because in just hr right lighting it looks like beta cape
There were only about 5000 participants whom got the cape ??
I have beta cape from playing beta before global launch so if u wanna be friends just send me ur qr! (U can send qr for live or beta, I play both)
That’s pretty low considering there’s a 10.000 beta players in iOS that time
Even lower when you consider the live game has over 10 million downloads 
Ahhhhhh , are those the official numbers ?? 😍over 10 million downloads is a lot I think. I don’t know what an average game has for downloads. Hope most of them stuck to playing
What are the levels for the mysterious friendship gauge? I’ve heard shepherd, is there anything else?
there's no levels
It’s just new players and shepherds
Oh ok thanks
@dusk bay to answer your question from QnA: yes it is intentional. The cape locked behind the 99 ascended candles (and 999 hearts for cape) have been in testing in beta for a long while. It’s supposed to serve as a long term goal for “those who have everything” 
Hard to get, oh lord. Thank u so much @lunar zealot 🤗🤗
@copper temple the report you made is not a bug, it’s a function that there is also in live
Re: beta rewards (located in that new super cool and awesome #beta-faq) https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/718595027990741022/718656969715744831
Oh ok! Thank you for the clarification!
I just realized my beta avatar looks like Ktjn XD idk how I didn't realize that when I got weasel mask ages ago
so like i still cant get beta ;-; google sux. is it possible to get an apk file for it so we dont have to wait any longer or no
Repeat feedback is okay, especially if you just want to make sure that you didn't forget.
It's a little different if you're being unconstructive about a specific feature you do not like or persistent bug we've been unable to fix despite our best efforts. By "unconstructive" I mean increasingly hostile, aggressive, and sometimes downright abusive feedback that escalates over time. It is okay to not like a feature, it is okay (and welcome) to tell us that you don't like it. It's NOT OKAY to get toxic and abusive just because the feedback channel is hidden and it feels like you're screaming into a void. It is perfectly normal and expected that not every person will like every feature, change, or design decision.
@boreal heart no and downloading the apk from third party sites is prohibited and breaks ToS.
;○; i want beta so muuuuch
do you want it so much you're willing to get banned for it?
because that kind of defeats the purpose.
actually i didnt mean a 3rd party... i was saying like the tgc staff making a channel with the download for people with beta or something
idk probably wont happen tho lol
i just want my beta uwu
thanks for the answer for my question Ktjn 
Beta isn’t that much fun, practically no one is online, and all you do is hunt for bugs... loads of bugs 
We don't make the game files available outside of existing platforms (Testflight and Google)
:/ oki
i don't think you would be able to update the game that way, and it would be broken i think. not sure. and beta isn't too interesting anyways. it's just bug hunting and stuff. there's barely any people there anyways.
I'm also waiting for my Google to update too~
And some of my friends with apple have already been playing and im just there like 👁👄👁
rip
wait where do you go to find the 99 ascended candles cape and the 999 hearts cape, is that in the live game or just in the beta
as soon as i join beta for the first time, i get told that i can only use my phone on weekends because i didn't do 16 pages of english homework and 8 pages of math homework in a day. ;v; so for the past couple days i've been extremely anxious about being kicked out for being inactive lol. i just wanted to say because it's been on my mind for a while now, it needs to go. i need to focus ;v;
the capeless cape is in the whale call's tree and it's only in beta. it's not in live. read the pins please!
wat i want that cape
Beta is not about collecting cosmetics.
You don’t get kicked out of beta for being inactive. 
:0 really? thanks for letting me know, it's been worrying me for the past few days lol ;v;
I mean you can get kicked but not for just not playing for a few days
Like you’d have to had completely abandoned beta for you to lose access via inactivity
I think a cool reward or perk to being beta would be like when a new season in beta starts, before it comes out on live, you get a special cape from the season that’s only obtainable in beta ✨
oh, that would make sense. 
@copper bison please dont prioritize beta testing over your education
beta can wait
That would cause a large amount of people joining beta just to get cool stuff, exactly what the devs don’t want
That’s a good point- hmm-
Oh also also get this: Imagine if a new season comes with new animals 👀 like fantasy deer type things would be so cool
i uh, don't think you should be asking about that.
Discussing the particulars is against server rules
it isn't but we shouldn't really be talking about it. it's against ToS to do it.
the only thing you need to know is it exposes you to malware and you'll likely end up banned from the game entirely
Ok I'll delete what I said
Sorry if I caused any trouble
Tbh every website you visit on android or PC exposes you to malware. iOS got dat built-in virus protection doe
that was a bad joke lol sorry
Guys, please end this conversation. It’s talking about things that are against TOS and shouldn’t be allowed. Please continue on with discussing beta
Which beta?
points to 5 days spent waiting
Random but I managed to get pink cape in beta! Haven’t had it in live so it was rlly nice to get it 
Which beta?
points to 5 days spent waiting
Same 😔 🙏
We can fly capeless with the forest elder hair correct?
i'm not exactly sure what you mean, but if you have the capeless cape you can fly. if you're just regular capeless (new player or something like that) no you can't fly.
having the forest elder hair does not grant the invisible cape. it was possible to get the elder hair/complete that constellation before that cape was added to the fish call friendship tree.
If that's the case, it's possible to circumvent the 99 ascended candle requirement to ascend that spirit, but you'd still need the 999 hearts to unlock the invisible cape itself.
how does the ''appearing as a shadow'' in blocking thing works once again? blocked player appear as a unlit person or?
When you block someone, you appear as a shade and they cannot interact with you.
Well, we did test that with a friend and they appeared as a sky kid normally
Whys the cape less cape cost so much tho💀
pins.
gonna put this here quick. Yen and i tried the blocking thing and yen still appeared lit but with their name red with a block sign for me
You can still see them, they can’t see you. If your friend still saw you, that’s a bug. But it worked mostly fine for me and Saki yesterday
hmm i am pretty sure yen still saw me
yeah, i could still see Lito
Oof! So all their cosmetics? That’d be good to report via #beta-bugs-ios and #beta-bugs-android . If you could specify which operating system you both were using respectively, it could help out the devs figure out what went wrong. 
Ktjn was the team able to isolate and remove the honk name issue that I reported in time for the Live patch or was it too late?
Yes, if you were blocked but could both still see each other and interact, please submit a bug report! 
:0
should we report the same bug for each platform?
It’s weird that others got it to work , I couldn’t specify anything that would explain why the block didn’t worked as intended 🤷♂️
Well, we did test that with a friend and they appeared as a sky kid normally
@mild panther It takes a couple minutes for the block to update, same for if you unblock them, for you to reappear normally.
Ahh i see, we will try it again then just to make sure!
Yeah that second half got me when I was testing. My shade-friend was able to high-five me for a bit. It was funny
Two devs here at once :0 

Ios and Android are both unique operating systems, a while back in live pairs of friends who where android/ios experienced more splits than android/android and ios/ios friends. Identifying the operating system of both parties are good details.
Yeah that's just network delays, not a bug per se.
We'll get in-game FAQs updated shortly (can take a week or so) we're still waiting on localizations to come back.
unrelated, rainbow bridge savior?
Yep, and I have DMs with aeri to prove it
There has to be an epic story to go with that 
The rainbow bridge in the isle?
wait, w h a t
._.
You know there were thousands of players who were disappointed by our accidental removal of the rainbow bridge and reached out to us across all out social platforms. Seems a little disingenuous to take credit for the whole thing.
Rainbow bridge exists in both live and beta. If you guys want to learn more about it, I can answer questions about it in #questions-and-help 
if you go up into the clouds (right side of the temple thingy) there’s a giant rainbow inside ^-^ it’s fun to run around on
It’s part of the “best oober” flex thing going on. That’s all
what is it the kids say these days? Weird flex, but okay.
Could i take oob lessons maybe
I do oob tutor. DM me
I was not able to test new friend blocking system in beta yet, but in live I already encountered a bug which I already reported. Apparently, I was the blocked person as I saw the shade. I definitely did not block this player. Their name appeared occasionally, esp. when impacted by the environment, and they were able to offer high five to me. I could not see their friendship tree though.
There was a flex war between me and Alex on OOB. Alex has the prelaunch beta experience, so it’s really hard to flex on that, but I’m having fun. I’ve yet to meet Omi or challenge them on that nickname yet. 
flexing in pro
Hello everyone, im a New beta and im playing the game a few months, and I want to thank you for having me
That's a potential bug, ennA, it also might be a strange side effect of how the blocking changes were implemented. either way, please submit a bug report and i can check on it with the devs when i meet with them next.
Hello Peacock! Thank you for helping us test Sky! 
That's fine if you want to have a flex war, but you should probably flex on things that are true.
I never said I was the only one.
Can someone tell me when does the new season start in beta?
When it's ready to start 
Thanks for the reception, I'm playing the beta for a short time so I'm still a bit noob in this area
we don't know. when it's ready it'll come. (gosh i can't spell)
So far, seasons will usually start in beta the day after the current season ends in live. Whether it’s changed idk
Ahhh i seeeeee, cause I remember that this season started in beta after the first week it ended ? I believe? So yeah i came to know about it lol
I’m almost certain enchantment started in beta before rhythm ended, but memory is fuzzy
i'm also new so i have no idea.
Peacock: new players are so great for beta, you have the fresh eyes and experience that some older players might miss out on!
Your feedback is as valuable as any player’s. Sky is designed to be intuitive so if you have trouble figuring out some things, feel free to leave polite/constructive feedback on it.
Soon™️
Preach
New player experiences help us a lot! It's important to know how players experience the game when they aren't super familiar with it- it can help us realize when things are unclear or too difficult.
Both new players and old players have different insights for us, and they're all valuable!
Wyiott too fast for me 
Cant wait for it doe! @vapid briar as a moderator here....do you know what the theme will be? Dont tell us ,im just curious if they show the moderators on discord anything lol
Wyiott is very nyoom
we channelling the same bean cell... this one: 
Ktjn isn’t a moderator, vivi. Ktjn is a TGC employee. She definitely knows.
I really want the new season to give love to praire maybe? Idk more spring/summer vibes? It would be super cool!
Sir Rat, Rainbow Bridge Savior, i left a message
no hints till its here 
I know all the things

@minor robin
Owwn, thanks dude, I'll make great comments and try my best to find bugs in the game, and if I take a while to answer it, because I'm translating the messages, I'm Brazilian And I'm not very good at English
except the things that i don't
I'm excited for everyone to see it
And to test it in Beta!
As do we all, Ktjn
As are we all, Stel 
I know all the things
@vapid briar periodt!!!!! im just so exited but i really dont wanna set my standards too high cause i might be disappointed lmao but ESHHHH
cries in crab call
Sounds like we have an amazing season ahead of us
96% of the time I know 100% of the things.
Peacock: sky has a ton of people from all over the world with various levels of english, TGC and the nice peeps here won’t judge. Your english is looking fine to me 
Still cannot download
Thank you Google you are awesome 🥰
english is my first language and i can't even speak that properly so you're finee
I’ve definitely seen way worse, peacock, and I definitely wouldn’t have noticed that you weren’t a native speaker if you hadn’t pointed it out
Im just so exited honestly cause this season actually added something permanent and exciting like the shop which is amazing in itself and i just hope the new season will be like this too
Sleep now and hope to wake up with a TestFlight notification 🤗
Hi ☺️ Also a new beta here. I just wanted to say that those spirit mantas on the last floor of Vault looked super nice with the vertical mode. Actually this was the first time I wished that part to last longer 😂
Peacock: sky has a ton of people from all over the world with various levels of english, TGC and the nice peeps here won’t judge. Your english is looking fine to me
@minor robin
Thanks, i make some lessons oh english and i use english Since I was little, so I'm good and I'm not good
Hello fellow beta testers!
hellooooo
One more question: Should blocked players appear as a shadow when they are in the same realm as me? Or in constellation only.
i believe they should be shadowed. idk tho
People you block shouldn’t be shadows, only people that block you
So the player who is blocked sees me as a shadow. Everything clear
I have a question: how does season passes for beta players work?
It’s all free. You pay 0 dollars
But what if I try to light up people that blocked me?
But what if I try to light up people that blocked me?
@spark lance You can't. There is no candle icon.
They're free in beta for testing, but you still need to collect seasonal candles the same as you would in live by doing quests and finding the candle bunches each day. Although you get a bit more candles per day than you do in live because the season is shorter
@lyric kite
Thanks for the info
Maybe there's a system seperating blocked people's servers 
Still cannot download
Thank you Google you are awesome 🥰
@echo hound
I keep waiting for 5(?) days
And I just left all my google accounts, rebooted the phone, and tried to download the beta
And you know what? Nothing(
So there is only one way out .... Wait
sorry, but i have another question: is the beta online like the global Sky or is it offline?
beta is like sky live but beta (sorry i'm not good at explaining things)

@spark lance
Yeah I did the same things! Gotta wait..Hope we can finally get it 🙏
Thank you, I thought it was strange, I am playing and so far I have not found players, but I will continue playing and helping TGC
sad beta noises
I have a question: does TGC plans to add more languages to Sky soon?
Localization is hard for such a small team. It will happen, but it will take time
Maybe they can get translation helps from native speakers if they plan to
It’s not that simple
maybe, but not many native speakers know english so they might just stick to english. 
They already get translation from native speakers
Is there a difference between beta and not beta
Hi all. Excited to be on beta at last. A bit worried I’ll be sending stupid bug reports to waste everyone’s time, but I’m all in to try to help!! Do you change the requests for beta help often?
Can someone take me to beta office
@spark lance #beta-looking-for-group
Will we get the beta adventure pass for free when it’s available or do we still have to pay?
it should be free in beta.
If you are just arriving with a set of questions, please complete these important steps BEFORE asking:
- Read the pins
- Read #beta-faq and #beta-announcements
- Search for your question
Android players, can you still not download the app? Or am i the only one? 
i was able to download it, but just wait. it will come.
Oh, i just feel like i've missed something 😅 well i can't really do anything apart waintin and continue doubting the validity of my beta pass 😐
There’s been nothing for you to miss
Hey guys,
I downloaded both the TestFlight app & got into the sky beta - but accidentally pressed “end beta testing” in TestFlight. I can still play on the sky beta app but cannot submit bug reports or anything as TestFlight comes up empty when I open it. Anyone know if this means I am in beta or out of it? This happened like a week ago
The Spoon: https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/718595027990741022/718660585851584584 you opted out/quit unfortunately. When beta receives another update/patch, you likely won’t be able to play beta anymore. But there will be another beta-access wipe after the next season. You can rejoin beta next-next season at least!
I'm an android user, I just became a beta tester two days ago and have yet to get the app (yes I've followed through on what the beta faqs but it didnt really work) to any other android users that have had trouble but have gotten the game, how many days did it take you to finally get it? (Hope this made sense 🥺)
@minor robin thank you for letting me know! Why is it that I can still access the app?
just updated beta! wondering what it is
probably bug fixes or the new season, whatever it is i’m playing today 
Can someone help me hold hand in a group of four
The Spoon: I honestly don’t know the answer to that, I’m just a regular player who sees info shared here and there by devs and by word of mouth. But after this week’s earlier beta access wipe, old beta players were still able to play it, but updates/patches will kick them out.
yup, it’s bug fixes. 
also @spark lance please stop asking here, we have asked you to say it in #beta-looking-for-group. thank you! 
Don't care
Essa, this channel is specifically for beta discussion, if everyone posted “asking for group stuff” those posts would spam up the discussion in here.
If you scroll above, devs do check in here to respond to observations/questions. Please don’t make their job harder.
i’m just saying it again, please ask in the channel i sent because it’s a high chance nobody will answer here. 
It’s better for everyone to organize where they are posting! It helps you find things faster as well as others!
Well many people here are here to answer questions not play the game so you’ll have even worse time asking for help here
No people are replying back
yeah because it's the wrong channel to ask in
Essa, some people will, yes. that’s. cause they want to help. we’re just trying to guide you to the right channel.
#beta-discussion isn’t the #beta-looking-for-group channel, 
it will all do us a favor and you will get your things finished. nobody is replying because sometimes, their helping everyone else. please be patient with them
there's not always going to be a person there. beta is pretty small, and not all people will be on that channel.
It seems like willow offered and you missed their message essa.
there's also way less beta players than live players
its very likely u'll often not have enough people to do things
Essa, someone did reply to you, they just didn’t ping you. If you read carefully someone did in fact say they could help
seasonal candles in beta, when finished become normal candles?
probably, but be aware the spammed candles more than likely will be wiped.
yes, but probably not because of the bug.
Seasonal candles become regular at the end of a season but the ones you get right now are glitched and likely to be wiped
Sorry katie
the candles we got through the pass bug will likely be removed
We’re probably not going to be able to keep those candles from the pass bug if that’s what you’re thinking
Seasonal candles become regular at the end of a season but the ones you get right now are glitched and likely to be wiped
@rustic imp
Thank you...
Just wondering, can we be able to install Sky Beta if we don't have discord? (Like, does TGC share beta codes somewhere else?), Yeah cauz i have a friend who actually did install it without the help of discord :/ (with that no one knows if it's a fake or not but yeah....)
Will users who are in beta by APK be banned from the server?
Ie on the normal server and the beta server
the wave links are supposed to stay within discord i believe. and we shouldn't really talk about other unofficial methods of getting into beta. but yes, they'll get banned
Hi guys, I’m new here, so please let me know if this is the wrong group to communicate in. But I have a friend who was saying that the blue office cape in sky beta is free. Is that true, or is he talking about something else?
the founders cape is purchasable for free in ||office|| in beta, but we don't get the true cape.
I say this because there are APKs, which can be used to enter the serv. Without having Beta access, in case a user enters the Beta Server from an APK. Would I be Sanctioned?
Would anyone happen to know how to get it? Because I’ve gone to office but I didn’t get it. It only took me to where you can purchase it
That’s against tos iliantorre
Open store icon while in office to get cape
Yep that was the way my friend used@viscid lion
Would anyone happen to know how to get it? Because I’ve gone to office but I didn’t get it. It only took me to where you can purchase it
@rapid sonnet you have to open the shop in office and purchase it. It will be free in beta even tho u see a price under it.
that's against ToS. You would be banned.
you go into the IAPs and buy the cape while in the actual ||office||. you can't be in the area before ||office||.
(im too used to sensoring ||office|| e.e)
Ok, thankyou Pakka
Yep that was the way my friend used@viscid lion
@merry nimbus
Your friend something happened to his account?
what does apk stand for?
Up until now no (cauz he played like 3s to test it), but i really doubt he'll be able to do anything without being ban soon 😐
android application package. but we shouldn't really be talking about this, it's against ToS to get in the beta outside of the waves.
Ofc
I would like a STAFF to answer this question for me. Will users who enter the beta with an external application without being beta users, be penalized? They would kick him out of the Serv
yes. (i'm not staff, but yes.)
Btw where can i find the ToS?
Thanks 😄
Downloading the beta from somewhere other than google or testflight is against ToS. Actions for breaking ToS may include being banned.

@vapid briar
Thanks for answering.
my google play is saying that my phone are not compatible with both beta and live again, is there anything i can do to solve the problem?
there's a pin in #questions-and-help that could help you with that.
@viscid lion this question has been answered many many times by staff in this channel specifically. Staff isn't always available to immediately answer your question, if you do not wish to trust the answers from other players, i highly recommend using the search function in discord to look for official answers, as well as the in-game FAQ, like what joshur linked to you above.
I've tried everything listed in #beta-faq but google still says it's full... Guess I'll have to wait a couple days...
Yeah Google is super slow, alot of us are on day 5. 
A player contacted Google Support and reported back that they are experiencing issues with new testers getting access after old testers have been removed and are working on getting it fixed with no ETA. Amusingly, we haven't even heard back from Google dev support that this was the case.

@vapid briar
Thank you for giving me the information, I will take it into account.
Thanks google 
@viscid lion please do not ping staff (esp ktjn) unless it is an emergency. Thank you!

I only mentioned that some Android users have access to the Beta, through APK of second pages.
sorry to interrupt but i know the beta qr friend links are bugged but i forgot the way around it
it's okay, they were directly responding to me.
it's the 3am cold pings that are zingers, lol.
but yes, when you quote someone to reply, you can remove the name so it doesn't ping them. Quote feature a double-edged sword 
Lol okie xD
yeah I can only imagine that must be fun 
You can find information on the QR problem and other beta issues in #beta-known-issues
I appreciate you asking others to be mindful of the rules and general discord etiquette. 
Google support told me that they hadn't 'received my beta application' so uh, grain of salt for contacting support
It's a fine balance of reinforcing when it's appropriate to ping staff, but not striking so much fear they don't ping you when it is an actual real emergency.
Sorry, I wanted to know the answer from a staff. Forgive my daring
Very true! As with all things, balance is important. 
iliantorre: the community here has some very knowledgable peeps, as well as shepherds who are regular players but have an orange name, they’ve been acknowledged to be both very helpful and very kind peeps. Like Joshur up there who linked the TOS to you 
Tho if we super don’t know a thing, we’ll admit it and let someone else more knowledgable handle it

@minor robin
I'll keep that in mind, thanks.
Most of my DMs and cold pings tend to be easy questions that have been answered hundreds or thousands of times, pinned in multiple channels, made into bot commands, parts of FAQs and whatnot.
And then I have sweet souls who spend more time apologizing for "being a bother" to report something very serious, than explaining the serious matter, when they should be completely comfortable reaching out for those things instead of afraid of doing the wrong thing.
As the saying goes, "locks keep out only the honest."
so me and yen tried doing the blocking again and we managed to get it to work. we were on different builds which really didnt help at first till we got on the same build again. so it works!
All my love to those poor souls, as I lowkey suspect I would be among their ranks if I had to report a serious problem. 
I prefer you in colors Lito
Has anyone who is a brand new android tester been able to download the beta from the app store? trying to gather info to troubleshoot with Google what's going on.
i've been able to download it. i got in on the fourth wave. i didn't go on my phone until 2 days after i became a tester though so idk what would of happened if i downloaded before those two days. i downloaded it from play games, but because i had to delete it due to level downloading problems, i was also able to download it from google play store.
I'm a no-go. I'm showing in the program, and cannot download from site, app or play games
Hi guys may I ask where the problem relate to the hot fix should be discussed? Is it to be report as bug ? Thanks 🙂
I was able to download it in the first wave straight after entering
I got in during the third wave but I wasn't able to download it and I've been waiting for 6 days now (I've tried everything such as clearing cache, restarting my phone etc. and still nothing)
@toxic oasis Not sure which problem you’re referring to specifically but yeah generally you’d want to report bugs in #beta-bugs-ios or #beta-bugs-android
I'm a new tester, third wave still not able to get in. Clearing cache and data did let me see it though. Third wave not second whoops lol
@toxic oasis Not sure which problem you’re referring to specifically but yeah generally you’d want to report bugs in #beta-bugs-ios or #beta-bugs-android
@obsidian tree is about the phone becoming super hot while playing
New tester, first wave, still waiting 
Ryory, i think in #beta-feedback, but i can't be sure. It's not really a bug so it would make sense to go in feedback, but idk.
I wonder was it intended to be impossible to reveal spirits memories while being capeless? (Just tested)
Still checking on the daily to download beta for android
Ryory, i think in #beta-feedback, but i can't be sure. It's not really a bug so it would make sense to go in feedback, but idk.
@copper bison yea exactly I’m not sure if is a bug or how it’s classified
Think I'm 4th wave?
Yeeeah going capeless tends to make stuff in general go just a bit wonky. it’s kinda like when you paste an image on a word doc with text
I wonder was it intended to be impossible to reveal spirits memories while being capeless? (Just tested)
@inland halo basically you can’t reveal their memories because you don’t have the light, so your flame is powerless. Tested to
I haven’t really bumped into many glitches or bugs in B-Sky.. Has anyone else?
I haven’t really bumped into many glitches or bugs in B-Sky.. Has anyone else?
@versed bay nope. For now only those relate to portrait mode. For the rest same bugs as live version
It’s kind of a quiet time in beta right now. Beyond overheating, portrait mode, and the blocking feature there’s not much being tested right now. There’ll be plenty to test when the new season is released.
Someone managed to download the beta from the Play Market? 
Bye, slow mode 
So is sky still beta or no?
It’s kind of a quiet time in beta right now. Beyond overheating, portrait mode, and the blocking feature there’s not much being tested right now. There’ll be plenty to test when the new season is released.
@obsidian tree correct :)
I’m expecting something coming super soon in beta. Like the new necklace if there is going to be one before. Or directly new season haha one of those days precisely 🤘❤️
I haven’t really bumped into many glitches or bugs in B-Sky.. Has anyone else?
@versed bay what about rendeing glitch at right top hidden platform at Isle where wing is located and where map forward is not rendered and flickering from rendering/missing because of depth search path for rendering optimization? It's live for a long time on both platforms. Have been reported several times.
i haven't encountered many bugs, but that's mainly because there's not many different ones from live. i don't get the overheating thing, android player here so i can't use portrait mode, and i haven't tested the blocking thing yet because i've been busy.
i'm not sure what you mean exactly by is sky still beta. yeah, there's a beta version, but also the live version exists too.
@light depot The global live version of sky was released in July. Beta continues in order to test new content.
Is anyone else getting really hyped up over the new season even though the only thing we know about is the necklace symbol, because I am
Is there Sky Alpha version? 
Is anyone else getting really hyped up over the new season even though the only thing we know about is the necklace symbol
@lapis rapids I’m screaming everyday haha 😂
what about a delta version?
thanks all! Hopefully we can get the google stuff sorted soon 
what about a sky omega version
What about Pikachu and Eevee version?
anyone wanna gift me?🥺
Okay question- anyone notice the tiny cave to the left of the forest caverns in the wall as you exit? I have no idea how long it has been there but it’s never served a purpose and I only noticed it last week 🤔👀
issa you found my secret spot 👀👀
It’s mine now
@obsidian tree can you send pics
Uhh yeah I think I have some lying around. Giccix how long has it BEEN there though I must be blind 
send me pics pleaseeeeee
I think it's been there since the area was added 
You mean the one that jellyfish lead to?
i would like to see some pics too!
You shall never find my hidden spot 
Fan meet up in the hidden spot 
are you challenging the crowd of sky kids
WHY I CANT DOWNALD

patience
Yes because you won’t know if you’ve found it so I win by default
are you on android cami?
patience
i was going to say that but slowmode lol
Yes
> are you on android cami?
@empty river
Welcome to the android can't download club. 
rip 😔 all u can do for now is wait
My phone is compatible

It’ll just take some time. Hang in there android people we love you 
Thanks 
i can both understand and not understand the android can't download club's pain. but good luck waiting 
Having deep conversations with your friends while bug hunting in beta. It really do be that kinda day. 
that is, if you have any ;v; (referring to myself here lol)

How often is okay to report the same bug?
i mean, if you are reporting the same bug, it's not really necessary. (unless it's been a while and it's still not fixed or something) but if someone else has reported the bug, it's good to let the devs know that multiple people are experiencing that bug.
Plus it's helpful for them to know which devices are affected and in what situations the same bug appeared
has anyone been to eden ||and during the "flying with friends" moment saw friend light children with a star as their names/saw more friends than they had||?
guys. I simply just need a hug.

@copper bison would be convenient if "a while" is specified. I don't like to spam, but it's not good to see same bugs over and over again.
hmm, maybe in a week or so, or maybe next update? i dont really know.
Shouldn’t the ideal be after a new update?
Yeah it’s ideal but it’s not realistic
I have a question about the translate button.
I am Japanese.
A Brazilian friend spoke in Chinese, so when I pressed the translate button, it changed to Portuguese but not to Japanese.
Has anyone had a similar experience?
What do you think is the cause?
*I have already reported it in the feedback.
Wow, I have a special experience!
Is this lucky?
most likely. a lot of us don't get into that situation unless planned, so we don't really know.
I think you should report this as a bug!
you now officially have the beta badge of honor 
Okay! I will report the bug together with my experience.
thank you everyone
So I am trying to get into the beta download but it wont let me yet even after getting in the beta...
are you on ios or android?
Hi. good night, do you know anything about the new season?
it is a mystery to everyone 👻
Well, not counting the tgc staff that is
!travelingspirits We need new cycle
The next Traveling Spirit is scheduled to arrive on June 25 at 00:00 Pacific Time (UTC -7:00)
You can read how Traveling Spirits work here: http://bit.ly/TravelingSpirits
8 days away 
8 days to collect candle and be broke again after
Not entirely
So I am trying to get into the beta download but it wont let me yet even after getting in the beta...
@wooden badger same.. Android phone not working narhh
i really hope it's not too expensive. i'm not too bothered, i just have a lot of work so i don't exactly have enough time to candle run ;v;
Once the season ends all of those seasonal candles are going to turn into normal candles, so it's a quick 100 candles being turned from seasonal to normal
There is no season going on in the beta, and those pre-order candles might as well be wiped before a season begins given the bug that let you get an unlimited amount of them. Don't count on having them
I’m to lazy to do math, season will be over before the ts comes right? Wow should of asked this in live sorry 😂
probably i don't want to do the math either lol
To answer your question yes the season of enchantment will end before the ts arrives
Do we know when the nitendo switch beta would be released? I heard the app was set to be released this summer on the switch 
switch doesn't have a beta program, so the answer is never 😔 (the game is set to come out in summer like you said tho!
)
Awww, still great to hear it’ll be out soon!!!
(Might be delayed tho cause the team is working from home)
Gn my dear Beta Testers, just wanna say, keep up the great work. you’re doing great sweetie 
sure
oo there is still slowmow here
yep, 1 minute.
I still can't download Beta,think about it ,June 11 is when I got tester roledone all those steps over and over again
Yeah, people have been waiting for a while now. Try following the instructions in #beta-faq and if it doesn't work, wait maybe a few days or so and try again. It's not guaranteed you'll get it to download but we can try.
Someone is working on it with Google, trying to get the installer to work
No good news in these six days ,not hopeful about next six days either
Someone is working on it with Google, trying to get the installer to work
@thick lion thank god- still waiting patiently
i give those who are waiting for android a big good luck. i was lucky enough to not have to deal with that for some reason and wish you guys to have a good time bug testing once you get in 
@copper bison are you iOS or android?
android.
Did you go thru those steps @copper bison as in betafaq or was it smooth like butter?I'm android so curious
well, i got in through the fourth wave. i wasn't on the first 2 days of being tester because i was busy. i downloaded the beta on the third day from google play games normally. i played up to golden wasteland and then had level downloading problems and had to delete the game. it was here where i stumbled upon the problem everyone else was having, just with google play games instead of play store. so because i was panicking, i just followed the instructions in #beta-faq multiple times and then google play store allowed me to download it for some reason. idk, i just got lucky probably.
Yea
Google best get their junk workin before we all dab on em.
i can imagine the storm of skykids wanting their beta
I registered as tester 3-4 hours after the access wipe...it was very smooth and I started downloading within a minute after clicking the link.
I dont know why the slowmode is still there, hasnt the final wave gone long ago?
#beta-screenshots-videos I will post an issue there
how do some people get up to like 500 hearts in beta like- it’s so hard to get hearts AND candles already
Is the aviary likely to reappear? It's so beautiful!!😭
magjik
Donuts sphere circle fhhxrnjx my account
lemme go
Still waiting for Google, I hope most of the testers downloaded the app successfully.
Have a good day of hunting everyone, being patient is all we can do❤️
Aviary was beautiful but one of the reasons it isn’t here now is that it caused devices to really overheat. Not good for your phone.
the devs said they want to bring it back in some way already.
Prairie’s bird nest has some resemblance to aviary
No, it doesn't. And they were both in the game at one point.
had all the new beta testers for android got the app yet?
not all unfortunately. google is slow
Maybe divide the beta-discussion from beta-invite-discission..?
No, it doesn't. And they were both in the game at one point.
@hollow compass birds nest has a slight aviary feel to it, and so that’s why I said it has some resemblance
had all the new beta testers for android got the app yet?
@normal forum nah, I'm on day 4 for still trying to get the app 😔
@edgy canopy I don't quite see it.
But let's agree to disagree.
I had to go look up an old Aviary photo just to remind myself. 
when does the season testing start?
we don't know, when it's ready. but probably soon
you'll know when there is a big update landing
Probably in the next week or so. As I keep saying, as soon as the season of enchantment ends in live, the adventure pass preorder will be available. And since it shows some of the content of the season, it would probably have to have been tested by then
yep
yet we don't know, live game can be updated before the season start

The season in Live ends on the 21st. There is no way we will be able to test it over 3 days. A pre-order button may already be available, as well as concept art, so that can still be released for the Live shop.
It’s only a theory though, so nothing is confirmed. Just a guess based on some gathered facts and a bit of logic
@edgy canopy I don't quite see it.
But let's agree to disagree.
I had to go look up an old Aviary photo just to remind myself.
@hollow compass Can I have a view of it?
check out the pinned post in #lore-discussion-spoilers
When does the double heart event in beta end?
the what-
Double hearts are turned on in beta but we’ve heard nothing for why, and for how long
the double hearts have been there since the event started in live, and it remains active until now 
usually those double hearts candles won't even started in beta. only, seasonal candle lights are boosted in beta for testing purpose
I think they forgot to turn the event off in beta, much like the pre-order bug.
Lets not tell them huehuehuehue
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/721234619596406825/722686798492336230/image0.png how much is the no cape cosmetic? it says it's in the forest constellation but I cant seem to find it in the live version?
btw the link is the screenshot i took
you can't get it in live, it's only in beta. read pins.
@spark lance no cape is a prank. It wasn't meant to be real, just a joke. Btw u can go capeless, just get hit by krill till u lose all light 
i'm going sleep lol i need my daily dose of energy. 
Good night 
Invisible cape is beta only... if you literally just die, you get sent to a black room and you get a pity star. If u wanna go capeless u gotta take a few other steps
i see tysm!!!
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/721234619596406825/722686798492336230/image0.png how much is the no cape cosmetic? it says it's in the forest constellation but I cant seem to find it in the live version?
btw the link is the screenshot i took
@spark lance Its 999 hearts and 99 ascended candles.. It's supposed to the hardest cosmetic to acquire in beta
does that mean u can actually buy it?
Yes, only in beta
Yes. Only in beta tho, but the cosmetic doesn't contribute towards forest constellation completion.
okay tysm!!!!
Technically can. It’s not meant to be easy to get. Most likely not worth your effort to get. Considering how expensive it is.
I'm confused what to do now... I've filled up the mysterious friendship bar and now it says I'm a shepherd.
Edit: Why chatting in beta-android is turned off?
You be friendly and guide moths now 
:o how do u become a shepherd?
In beta version of sky? No one knows. It’s a mysterious friendliness meter
I found out I’m apparently a shepherd only a few days ago and got confused cause I barely meet anyone, seems extremely vague what fills the meter 
hoho i see tyy
Geralt beta android channel was there to help get android ready for live. It’s not needed as much now because android his hit live.
It was pretty dead since the live launch anyways
:l
In beta is lonely :l
Yes. There are way fewer people in beta compared to live. It’s really quiet. be sure to use #beta-looking-for-group is you want to meet up with new friends here!
Thank you but i want to meet people in game more than finding in it xD
In Live, the friends i met in-game is stay with me longer than the one i friend with them by social-
So-
too bad lol
But in Beta everyone run real quick xD
Feels lonely in Beta xD
Lol
wait until the season begins testing, I bet you'd find lots of players running around then 
im gonna aim my goal for the invisible cape cause why not 😤 but where can i buy it in the forest constellation
Whale call, and ummm...good luck
🐠 call
Me too 
The name is officially whale call
For me I wouldn’t put that much effort for one beta cosmetic. Nobody knows when our progress will be wiped out so
On the topic of official names, was it ever mentioned when the placeholder names of the spirits were removed? I can’t find them in game so I’m guessing it was removed at some point
@primal pagoda it’s fun to have some kind of goal
My goal is to find 🐛
That’s been repeated about the invisible cape so often, atp if someone wants to sink that much effort into getting one cosmetic, I can’t say much even if I think it’s not a good idea
Ya because i unlocked all elder hairs in Live-
I want to try new things-
And its still works normal so i just come to test the seasonal stuffs like a normal player -u-
Ah thank you
Yeah, the names got a bit of backlash from many beta players.
https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/583370574449999880/709648701949214761
more on the names of the spirits
well, i felt sort of dumb since they were placeholders, i'm waiting on the polish and see if that would change my mind lol
Indeed. The names felt exactly what a dev would put to describe a game feature, rather than actual names, if you know what I mean.
I personally don't want to see people asking where can they find the clumsy archer, I would not be able to answer their question with all the laugher
a p o l o g e t i c l u m b e r j a c k
Spirit speaker....
fainting soldier
pointing guide....
i desperately want to know if the belonging spirits were called things like sparkler mom....dancing son...
he sure do be pointing doe 😳
Is anyone still waiting for downloading the android beta app too? Its 5 days now ^^'
lots of android betaronis are still waiting, hang in there 
Me too haha, but I'm used to wait now lol
Okay, good. In this case I'm less worried xD
Thank goodness
📌
Just checking if beta still has slowmode- okay, yup 
At least it’s only 1 minute now
Yep
That

I got in!!!!!!😭 6 days but it was worth it. Hang in there everyone!
Just wondering, did you somethin special @sick lantern ? Or did you just take a look 
And it was there*
Just wondering, did you somethin special @sick lantern ? Or did you just take a look
@storm radish ohhhhhh LOL the edit helped, I just logged out from everything and logged in again with the same email
Oh i mean to see download the app on the play store
I see thanks for the reply
i'll try that, maybe it'll work 
Yeet.
Nope, not today for me
i'll continue waitin 
Is it double heart in beta?



I had a dream the beta app was available, turns out it's not. RIP. More waiting
Please don’t spam emojis here. Let’s keep this channel to actual gameplay discussion.
Has Google put up the app yet?
I hope the new season comes in betA soon
Has anyone solved the problem with installing from Google Play? 🗿🤔
Yes, i am currently chatting with a google staff member to see if they can resolve the problem
Thank you
They told me "tell the game developpers, maybe they can solve it"
Eerm nope
Yeah nope, it's their system
Well, they told me to W A I T
He didn't seem to be the most competent guy of google lol
Yeah we have a few months or so, hopefully
Well i hope that we'll have the access to the beta sooner than a few months haha
You know beta difference is in pinned message, right?
I wrote in support of Google, waiting for them to respond 🗿
Crud... I was sick for the past 5 days and I missed the beta invites! First time in a whole year I won’t be in beta....wow..... what will I do with myself?😢
@spark lance Pinned message in this channel?
They say it's a developer problem.
Yeah every person who has contacted Google has said that. You would think they would start getting a record that idk 50% NEW DROID TESTERS CANT GET THE APP? 

It's a limbo
Okay! I'll just wait. 
Can the new season start soon in betA???😬
For beta testing do I have to wait to reset to get ascended candles or can I go multiple times a day?
it'll start when it's ready to start. 🙂
All the resets work exactly like they do in live. there is no fast-track to more candles.
No one is excited about the new season??????
Patience my fellow moths 😊
What's patience??
I have a sense you are a jumping moth 😆
Patience is a virtue yes....
But it's a very hard one to contain.
I was a moth, but 2 months ago...
What's patience??
@spark lance isn't that the people that go to the doctor cause they're sick?
Patients
🤡
Patients
@feral girder yeah, never seen the word written w/ c before 😋
Beta is gonna be full of bugs and you can call me pest control cuz I'm gonna squish them out
It's a limbo
@feral girder the light isn't there alright. #beta-screenshots-videos
question: i know the blocker appears grey to the blocked. But if the blocked see their 'friend' as grey in the constellation, wont the blocked know that they been, well blocked by their 'friend'?
edit: as in what if this hurts the persons feelings or not. Like chances are they might not care, but also... theres that
do you guys ever sleep?
@spark lance, please don't discuss hacked or leaked game content in this server
bruh, please remove your post
Sorry(
don’t worry about it! any ‘spoilers’ for the new season likely come from hackers, so beware
do you guys ever sleep?
@spark lance
Maybe xd
Sad life why they scamming
It’s so empty in here👀
@solid wraith hmmm I hope they do that
@ocean furnace okay i think i found the right wording now xD
basically the blocker is grey to the blocked right? like if the blocked meets the blocker in a realm they wouldnt know, because the other person is greyed out
however if the blocked check the constellation, they will see their blocker in grey and in that sense they would know. Instead of this, a suggestion would be they do see the blocker lit up in the friend constellation but the other person appears offline and the blocked cant interact with them. In this sense, the blocked wont know
@sick lantern
can i ask you about how to download beta? I'm waiting more than 6 days, and i want to play beta😭😭😭 Can I talk with you in DM?
Beta applications have closed 😦
@solid wraith yes!!!! I hope they do... Sorry I took time to understand it XD... I also hope they take them out of the whole constellations XD
The only way to download it is to just wait for google
I can't believe it.I look at Google stores and Google games every few hours every day.But he still told me I couldn't download it. This is the sixth day I have been waiting for.😥 😥 😥
You can try contacting google customer support ig, there’s not much anyone else can do
I have a question, what do you all mean Google stores doesn't download Sky Beta App? I got my phone crashed UI Not Working and into black limbo screen for few minutes when I use a new Google account and download again, following #beta-faq (Meanwhile it got my device unable to use Power Button to restart)
For a lot of people who entered the Android beta program in these recent invite waves, the google play store is not showing an option to download the beta game even though they’re now testers
Beta programme and Testing Programme. Is there a difference? 
They are the same
which size is the biggest-?
The sky kid height-?
which size is the biggest-?
The sky kid height-?
@dusky jolt is there a measurement system in the game?
Like when we use resize-?
And there is biggest and smallest-?
Look at the pins in question and help
@dusky jolt the last pins in #questions-and-help
Seems like is hard to- use-
needs some edits and screenshots
According to wiki there are 13 possible outcomes for the rezise pition
Thank you
wiki has been updated. there are thousands of heights over a continuous spectrum rather than discreet data points. the size chart will be removed soon due to it giving a skewed view. furthermore, you can also be taller than the #1 size after using a resize potion. it is unclear where the lower limit goes, but chibi isn’t attainable
You can still use it as a scale method, you don't need to be 100% sure.
Also hi misty
When will the next season start😊?
next season usually starts within 1-3 weeks of the previous season’s end in the live version of the game. however, it all depends on how the beta testing goes

@desert token how can i find that wiki link-?
Seems like i dont use the right keywords-
go to the Blessings and Spells page. you can navigate easiest on the main page of the Wiki
Can we report people downloading beta app yet they're not playing it at all?
@desert token
Um, you mean we can be taller than #1 permanently? 🤔🤔🤔
edit : OMG that's amazing!
Anyone still waiting to install?
That’s not something you can report someone over, unfortunately it just happens @manic dagger
Does anyone know how to get crab cape in beta? I saw someone wearing it. Is it possible to get it there or??
traveling spirits also come to beta. older beta testers who tested the actual season may also have it
It works the same way as live where you have to wait for it to come back in a traveler, you’ll need to farm candles just like live to get it though
Sad. @quick oriole .. They fill the space of beta testers yet they're not playing... 😕
Thank you guys. That answers my question.
Well you can't do anything about it
@manic dagger
i still can't download I want to cri 
Sad. @quick oriole .. They fill the space of beta testers yet they're not playing... 😕
yes, though as much as it sucks, inactivity isn’t breaking rules
😓😓😓😓😓😓😓
Maybe they just need time to play. Work, school, life... It gets in the way of the game. 
For example my friends are waiting for me to be able to play beta so we can do it together. So they aren't really playing rn
Thank u
There's that too. There's a fun aspect of playg together vs being more advance
Android users, how long does it take for you to download the app?
Idk I'm still waiting, depends on Google I guess. They have to go through the accepting process of the beta I think. I published an app and I'm still waiting for it to be accepted. Probably is going to take half a week more before you can download it
P.i.n.g T.e.s.t
Not long i guess-
I got beta in the first wave-
And it just need 8mins long to download it-
Yes but at the 3d wave problems with Google started showing up, ppl r waiting over a week to download the app
I entered in the second wave I think
I entered the first wave. Not sure about the second and third. Link issue? (Do you link your account?)
I've been waiting for almost 7 days, but I haven't been able to do beta. I did all the steps several times, but it was no use. So I want to ask android users who successfully installed it.
-How did you get to download it?
-Was it just luck?
-How and when did you succeed?
I entered the first wave. Not sure about the second and third. Link issue?
@spark lance
Tgc says its Google being slow
SpongeBob meme
Day 6
First wave also have link issue-
I need to reentered the link about 5 times too-
Its not the link issues tho, we got accepted as testers but Google won't update our tester status
have you all tried the toubleshooting tips posted in #beta-faq? if you tried it immediately it wouldn’t have made a difference - you should do it again now (a few days later) 
I did try couple of times, did no difference
have you all tried the toubleshooting tips posted in #beta-faq? if you tried it immediately it wouldn’t have made a difference - you should do it again now (a few days later)
@desert token
I did that several times.....
edit : I did it twice every day.
Well, it updated mine instantly so
clear data AND cache
For me it wont let clear the data, just the cache...... idk what to do about it
Doesn't change much @spark lance
then it is down to google and just needing to wait. as has been said before there’s nothing tgc can do for this issue
I don’t understand the urgency though, since the beta version is a significant step down from the live version (+no new content to test)
you all need Beta Invite Ping Roles and then the later Beta Update Roles, right? That 
clear data AND cache
@spark lance
i did all things.
logged out and re log in, delete cash and data, rebooting my phone, well, Honestly, I'm a little tired. 🥺
Google has to accept every beta version that is released and has to confirm users joining the beta program, due to coronavirus the wait time is longer so just wait I guess. I'm not sure deleting cache and data does anything but I guess keep doing it.
This usually takes from 3 hours to 2 weeks, average is 1 week
then it is down to google and just needing to wait. as has been said before there’s nothing tgc can do for this issue

@desert token
People do not understand, its not the urge to be a tester, its the waiting process that annoyes people
i know i should wait, but it's too long. I didn't expect to have to wait this long.
A little copy pasta from #beta-faq
SkyCall If the above DOES NOT WORK please wait a few days for Google to catch up. As long as you received the Welcome to the testing program. You are a tester. message you will remain in the program until you choose to click on the LEAVE THE PROGRAM button or we announce an access wipe to remove all testers.
(Why)
Well, it will be kind of unfair if they announce a testers wipe and ppl didnt even got the chance to try beta XD
Don't beta testers also get a beta role?
I really thought I would cry if I didn't say this here. If it's not here, there's no place to talk...! Thank you all for caring.💕 I know you're right. I just... I'm so upset. 🙏🏻
edit : now i don't like GOOGLE!!!ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ
I already press the LEAVE THE PROGRAM button. (That's last week )
there’s no beta role except beta-ping and beta-updates. if you are in the beta, please react with the second option for news on new patches 
I get it, ppl are annoyed that they hear all day about those who can't get in, but please understand how frustrating the waiting is, people who lost sleep over the beta invites needs to wait over a week or however much time it takes google to accept the new testers.
I think i can say for all of us that we are extremely sorry for constantly talking about it and asking questions you guys can't answer, just bear with us for a couple days until we get in and the subject cools down.
A huge thank to the mods and managers and all the people here who helps us all day, you guys are amazing 
Ok listen, you android users aren’t missing anything. Currently, the beta has no event or anything going on. All it is, is just just bugs, constantly. Beta isn’t exactly all that “fun” that people assume it to be. you are there to test and review.
Just be patient, you aren’t missing anything.
Okay so someone said that its going to take 5 days for it to let me download beta. I am a beta tester ( i got it inte second wave) and its been 6 days now. It still doesnt let me download it and im starting to just give up
bruh you don’t get Beta by waiting 👁👄👁
I've been waiting for almost 7 days, but I haven't been able to do beta. I did all the steps several times, but it was no use. So I want to ask android users who successfully installed it.
-How did you get to download it?

@frosty oak I got in during the third wave. I dunno how, i dunno why. Maybe it's luck, maybe its maybelline. I downloaded the app after a few seconds of waiting.
@woven jacinth there’s no confirmed timeframe for this. google is a slowpoke

@jolly swan
Yeah i said that before, and I'll excuse myself to speak for a of those who r waiting, we know beta isn't fun and we miss nothing but the waiting process is the thing that gets us impatient, we dont even know if we will get in after 2 weeks
Those who got beta waited for too long, too. Now it's a coincidence that some got and some didn't. So who got will either play or leave after sometime. Who didn't get will have to wait for the next cycle. No matter how many messages here, nothing can change that. So why dont we enjoy the live instead of speaking for those waiting. It's not like something unfair happened, it's just part of a process..
Not trying to be rude but truth is simple as that 
Who am I to judge, but it’s hard to understand losing sleep and crying over this.
for all of those who are here, listening, without beta. i hope you realize that there will be another beta wipe where you can get in, but that’s only in a few months. so please stop asking us, and other people “when will beta open again?” because if you read in #beta-signup-info there will be more invites. it’s worthless to ask us because you will get the same thing over and over again. and i’m sorry you’ve been crying and losing sleep over this.
Can we have a channel where beta discussions happen instead of invite questions..?
this is it, but really, there's still going to be that one person that'll ask. redirect them and move on
indeed it is
Doesn't feel like it 
honestly it’s just a ask. reminder, invite, and barely any discussion because of * cough- * slowmode. 
it's going to become more lively Soon™️
Especially soon as Google gets it's act together
by the time that the new season comes there with be a raid in the channel
It'll be a mess 😳
Just checking the wait time to write 
Edit: Ohh 1 minute, great
How's the portrait mode going? Is it more difficult to control in your experience? Asking in android 🤣
i think its great! a vertical format works good for a game that is centered on...flying up and down 
the cutscene letterbox looks a bitt small and wonky for me though
Can we !krill Google 
I see, hopefully they'll fix that soon. The pictures in portrait look so good😍 have you tried it in wasteland?
not yet unfortunately < <
Pictures are great in portrait mode. I’m still getting used to the controls. I play one-handed.
I was curious on iOS beta and I noticed that portrait mode was there and I turned it on and OH BOY it was kinda hard to move. Honestly I know I would get used to it but the normal mode/horizontal mode is just my thing. Personally I like it better than portrait mode.
feel free to leave feedback on the portrait mode if you notice some features aren’t working/seem confusing. that’s what beta is for after all 
Hey guys I need some feedback. What do you think about this https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/618891214527266846/722799806367531058 ?
in my experience giving pointed solutions may be less helpful than simply describing the problems/experiences you have with the current system and how those affect you personally (since that is what the devs are most curious about). players who would be “pros” according to your system don’t necessarily need to be the friendliest either 
Got it @desert token 😁
Is more like an open idea something that of course could be adapted to the rank system they build. Which is still a mystery hehe.
At the moment the Shepherd badge comes across as something to be achieved, like a trophy. I think it will need to be a voluntary system where players who like guiding other players will be able to identify players who need guidance in the realm of Sky. Both player tpes could opt in such participation and they will be server matched. I have many friends in Live who love guiding "moths" - having this badge would be an honourable recognition of their play style. Players who have other objectives, like participating in every season, collecting all cosmetics, stars, etc. could work towards a different badge. And the 2 are not exclusive of each other.
That‘s a good thought @elder musk! You should mention that in the #beta-feedback channel to make sure it‘s seen (since I believe they are still testing the Shepherd program).
I agree with this. It shouldn’t be a trophy. But I’m still afraid some people will abuse it to troll new players. You’re either a good person or you are not, regardless of a visible badge.
@elder musk great idea. You should share it in the beta feedback channel for real
Ryory: What makes a shepherd a shepherd is friendliness atm. I agree with ennA that your second gauge would be better off as another badge of sorts. There are a few things I find some fault in:
-
the second gauge defines a part of the game's completion a little too clearly. Sky is supposed to be an intuitive game and all about exploration. There are things that people know they don't know, and then there are things people don't know they don't know. That's the fun of discovery and learning
-
I don't believe the word "pro" really fits. I think "explorer" would be a little more fitting. To give someone the title of "professional" can lead to elitist feelings or a false sense of superiority when in reality they've only scratched the surface of the game's depth. Not to mention that everyone has a different definition for what a pro player is.
For me: it's a person with 9/10 to 10/10 flight skills. For others it is something different.
I have 10/10 flight and I would not consider myself a pro (just ask any of the moths I've helped. I'm a clutz) 🤣
I have 10/10 flight and mostly pride myself on ubering skills, but I wouldn’t consider myself a pro either because I still learn new things about Sky from my friends on a regular basis. 
I don't consider myself 10/10. I'm 8/10.
I've only seen 2 players I consider 9/10. They can get all wax at citadel's 8 pillars in one continuous flight and fly through Eden and do some other crazy skilled stuff.
My friend who is a 9/10.... She witnessed an utter madlad of a 10/10 fly amazingly through eden. 
But yeah we all have different standards for pro fliers too. Let alone pro players hahaha
But why do we need to grade each other like this at all?
Oh I meant I have 10 wings, not that I think I‘m a pro flier. XD
Sky is great like that. always new surprises
(they meant 10 wedges/flaps by 10.10 flight power)
10 flaps is great when you're prone to smacking into a tree and need to flap harder to get on top of it XD
Exactly blep, it's all personal opinions and how one wants to view personal progress. I admire great fliers a lot, but other people might not factor that into what makes a pro player. All in all it something we have fun discovering in ourselves and in friends by spending time together. Rather than relying on a set gauge
I personally feel like anyone who can play chords reliably together and make them into an entire song in Sky — those are the real pros.
(which is not me lol)
Peeps who let the moth lead are the real pros of Sky! 
Haah wow I didn’t meant to generate this. Mine was just a simple stupid idea haha also expressed in a super bad way hehe. Is something that I’m working to before proposing,and I’m proposing as an idea of what could be nice to have with this new feature. So it doesn’t meant to be a point, like a final product that I just throw on them. I asked for feedback to understand whether or not this idea could evolve in something more related to the spirit of Sky. And of course could. The idea to change PRO with EXPLORER is great @minor robin I like it a lot. And yes I focused more in game progress than friendship. 😅 but yea I think is nice to have also something like that. Lot of players and friends like the definition PRO and love to be surrounded by them, like lots of players love the moth. And is nice to have a little heart on the top of the head who can identify also those kind of player. No for bad purpose :)
( and sorry for my English guys I’m not a native speaker)
I don't think anyone was really upset with you. lots of constructive feedback and I was mostly joking about my own sky abilities there
I don't think anyone was really upset with you. lots of constructive feedback and I was mostly joking about my own sky abilities there
@random gull ok thanks. I was scare to have offended someone somehow 😥 because that wasn’t my intention
The feedback are great. I love how they kinda make constructive a simple graphic 🙂
oof i feel like that one person who always reads through the channel just to checkk if anyone can't download beta like me😆
i'd be sad if i'm a fool and i'm not a beta player
Don't worry, Ryory, you're fine! No one's offended. 
google seems to be having a huge issue with that right now. consensus is be patient and hope google fixes it soon. check the link in #beta-faq if you need to verify you are in the program
this actually tests my anxiety tolerance
and don't worry i've read the faq more than 10 times and clicked the link even more😆
Kriscross: if it helps.... There's nothing super big happening in beta right now. Season of enchantment is not active, most people already tested out the blocking update and what most people are doing are just early player things like collect spirits, winged lights, doing an eden run. Nothing super exciting
希望早点出新季节Д゚`)
I need friends in beta please
@bitter pulsar #beta-looking-for-group 
@hybrid wedge thank you
@somber lichen Since we don't have enough staff and moderators to support other languages, we ask everyone to post in English. Thanks!/我们没有足够的人员和主持人来回答所有语言,因此我们要求所有人以英语发布。 谢谢! (这是用Google翻译编写的)
I use it for the first time, thanks for your notification, @Nagati
In beta can i buy previous season item?
You can only book the pass for the following season :3
Edit: and is free
No, Marceline, but traveling spirits do come through
free season candle will change normal candle after new season come?
no, most likely will be wiped
ohh u mean free season will change new season candle.
if they won't get wiped, but yes
just out of curiosity, why is slowmode still on?
oh it’s only a minute lol nvm
new season come out i can buy every item with free season candle?
they'll get wiped out for sure
i need to do daily mission☹️ but season pass is free right?
yes, IAP's are free for testing purposes
yep same i onlu want to test
I don't get attached to it anymore. Feedback sent. It was a very nice experience
thz for everyone🤩
Beta testers waiting for the next season like 👁👄👁
Just go for it. I'm done here.
Did they make it so that you can’t afk to get the krill plant anymore, or am I just being stupid and there was probably someone hidden in my server that I was unaware of?
Not a lot of people burn those plants in beta, you'd be lucky to even get a server merge with a few plants burned
grab a friend
@sick lantern
can i ask you about how to download beta? I'm waiting more than 6 days, and i want to play beta😭😭😭 Can I talk with you in DM?
@frosty oak yesss sorry I'm late, just dm me :)
@toxic oasis Sorry I was not able to react sooner, work has caught up with me. Just wanted to say thanks for bringing the topic of Shepherd badge to the forum. I did not realise my post might have been interpreted as criticism of your idea. When I wrote my post I had my own experience of the Shepherd system in mind, and I should have made that clear. Sorry about that 🥺
@proud cargo you need to buy the pass and then do daily quests, just like in Live because we are testing for release to Live. That’s the purpose of beta. 😉
@frosty oak yesss sorry I'm late, just dm me :)
@sick lantern download how? Like with the Google issue?
@sick lantern download how? Like with the Google issue?
@humble laurel yes, I'm trying to explain how I changed emails and managed to download it
@humble laurel yes, I'm trying to explain how I changed emails and managed to download it
@sick lantern so, I can't be betatester with my live google acc?
I mean, I play live with my google acc, but I also got in beta with this one
But I can't download yet
I have to put other google acc and then come back to the original? Idk

@humble laurel you can still use the same email as your live but because google is very slow I tried adding a second email to my play store and switching back to the one I opened the invite with and it worked for me
You can have the same Google/GameCenter account for both beta and Live. I don’t know if changing is some sort of workaround?
Huh
Gonna try that then
@humble laurel you can still use the same email as your live but because google is very slow I tried adding a second email to my play store and switching back to the one I opened the invite with and it worked for me
@sick lantern For your information, pokuman is using the same account for both Live and Beta. The only difference is Discord, using a new account instead the old one.
Btw just gonna drop this here, but I think the linking system in beta may be a bit wonky. I was able to link my live account to iOS Game Center with no issues so I could use my new iPad in addition to my phone — but in beta it wouldn‘t work properly. Kept getting stuck linking to the new account made when I opened the beta app for the first time on my iPad. 
I had to log into my google account on my phone to link beta progress and play on my iPad. (That did the trick.)
TL;DR: if you can‘t link via one method, try another.
What happens if you delete sky beta but don’t delete TestFlight? Can you reinstall sky beta or no?
Yep, it will be fine
You have to click „stop testing“ to remove yourself from the program. 
I don't have Ios. Sorry. It's been Android since day one.
hi- i got beta a few days ago, but the app still says its full. have i lost my spot?
No its google being lazy
oh ok lol
dont worry, i waited for a week, still is. Samee issue as u
Just play live beta isnt that important. We will probably download before new season starts in beta
Yes, I would definitely recommend playing Live for a bit, especially if you are completely unfamiliar with Sky, as some of the newer beta members seem to be.
That way you can compare a little bit how things are working, and you know what is a new feature and what might be a bug.
Plus you know for sure that your progress will never be wiped in live

Nice to use beta, but seems pretty empty of other players.
there's a few thousand beta testers (not all of whom are online at the same time) and over a million live players so there's that
You can put in some valuable time on live to get the cosmetics you‘ve always wanted (and may never get in beta) while you wait 
quick question about #beta-feedback as a person relatively unfamiliar with discord : i made a few screenshots/images that i would like to attach to my feedback message. can i rest assured that it will be delivered by the bot as one message or will it be separated into a text message and images? 
It will be delivered to the staff no matter what — and in my experience it sent (from my end) as one message. Hope this helps!
thank you!
Uhms i was looking through the spirits when i saw the fish call spirit wing buff costed 99 ascended candles anyone else has this
Considering that there are fewer players, making it difficult to complete tasks that require two+ players, opening doors etc. Perhaps beta can allow such tasks to be completed alone.. just a thought
it shows as having sent from you! the bot message is just so you know that it sent because you can't read the message history
Uhms i was looking through the spirits when i saw the fish call spirit wing buff costed 99 ascended candles anyone else has this
@open spindle that's intentional. there's a 999 heart cosmetic behind that 99 ascended candle as well.
Considering that there are fewer players, making it difficult to complete tasks that require two+ players, opening doors etc. Perhaps beta can allow such tasks to be completed alone.. just a thought
@kind prawn you can suggest that in #beta-feedback
@kind prawn there are plenty of people who would be willing to help in #beta-looking-for-group. Plus if things worked differently in beta (not counting new features), it may be hard for us to make sure we are fully testing content for the live players. Just my two cents. 
Sleep dream: that would be extra work and coding on Devs part tho and distract from their work on live features... And as peeps have said #looking-for-group-live 
As beta testers we don't really play for our own satisfaction or personal progress like we would freely do in live. Playing and testing is to help Devs and for the sake of improving the experience of live.
That makes sense.. good cents, I also thought that.. it would unnecessary complicate matters 👍
I hope my comments didn’t come across as me complaining.. it’s nice to use beta and try to possibly help.
Is there a way to tell for sure that you are in beta? I remember clicking the "Become a Tester" button, but I have no confirmation, and the app still says early access.
Google is so slow. Five days now. Orz
Sleepdream: Not at all! You're fine. I do completely empathize with how difficult some stuff can be alone. I actually just gave up on doing multi player doors. I just skip unless I'm with a friend.
For me, it’s two separate apps, so easy to tell if I am in beta
I don’t mind waiting for players, I just camp out, play music.. I understand there would be fewer players about. No biggi
@frigid stump you kind of need to download the app to be able to play it, so if you haven't done that you're not a beta member. Android/Google Play seems to be having difficulties and it's been very slow to download.
I'm on android... I hear many people cant download either
It's a common thing right now. I, and my friend, both run Android. We got in on one of the early waves and still can't download it.
I could potentially have 10 wings in beta, but knowing how hard it is to get some of those stars without help from several other players is not making it quite as tempting. 
For me, it’s just the areas that require another player to open door.. the rest I can manage alone.
If the idea is to test beta, then I should go to as many places on map as I can.. do what I do in Live version of app.. having to return to such areas repeatedly just takes a little more time, which is not particularly an issue, just need to wait long enough.
Hi guys, I want to ask about
this emote, if you light the stone immediately after arrived the end of race, the open gate cut scene will cover the part that you study this emote, but the spirit still go away and you didn't really study 
is this a bug??
I noticed that too, so it would just require us to wait for the cutscene to end
The solution would be to not allow us to move until the cutscene ends. I kinda enjoy moving during cutscenes, whenever possible
I would say yes, wait for the cut scene to end before doing anything.
I suspect that's because the 2-3 seconds before the gate opens they expect you to collect your candle in not move around
If you try to do something while in an active cut scene it can potentially glitch out. I've broken the boat meditation circle in wasteland cuz I tried to avoid the face plant in wasteland by gliding in live
At times, moving during cutscenes stops the cutscene, like when you activate temples, light lamps, etc.
I know if you wait the cut scene end and then light the stone will be fine, but for the people who first time play, they don't know about this, and light button show up before cut scene, it might cause the players don't know
is from the race and still try to find
It already happens on me in live version, and I finally realized why I didn't study the emote in first when I start playing beta which is after two months
So my question is, is this a bug? Can I reported it?
If you feel it’s a bug, it’s a bug, you can report it, leave it to the devs to decide if they wish to address it. (My few cents)
OK, thanks
I would put it in #beta-feedback or #live-feedback personally, since I view it as something about the gameplay that could be improved, but like sleepdream said, the devs can always decide what they do with it. :3
it would be something to mention in #beta-feedback at least! it definitely makes sense that players who are new might not realize the cutscene will cut them off (Kai beat me to it XD )
I would put it in #beta-feedback or #live-feedback personally, since I view it as something about the gameplay that could be improved, but like sleepdream said, the devs can always decide what they do with it. :3
@amber umbra OK, I will report in feedback, thank you very much
Of course! Happy to help 
And lol Maika, I am a speed demon today 
Because this actually happened on me twice, live and beta🤣 🤣
We did the flying race with a moth beta friend over the weekend: we collected both "bow" and "backflip" emotes (the blue lights followed us). However, only "bow" spirit appeared in Arena. I asked my friend to report it as a bug.
For me, seeing chat-dots, during some cutscenes was a little annoying. At one point I wanted to take a pic, but the pretty image had chat-dots all over it
I know when I tried to collect both in one run in beta it didn't work and I had to run the race a second time to get the second spirit. I did bug report it at the time
The "backflip" spirit seems to be bugged. I had to do the race twice to collect it (already reported as bug at the time).
I couldn’t see the spirits after the end of the race, so shared a bug report.. then I realised why (didn’t collect orbs), and felt bad about reporting. “Sorry, Brain was on a break”.
Nice talking to you all. Happy Beta-ing. Stay safe
even if it's not a bug, bug reports for unexpected outcomes do help the devs understand that a certain thing is unclear to the players 🙂
Still waiting to download beta 😔
when will the new season be in beta? I am so anxious to spoiled myself
Don't know yet
Wish we knew
On a logical guess in the next week or so
The current season only has 4 days left in live so I would assume it's soon
Well at the least of things we will find out what the season is in 4 days (plus the number of hours)
hey quick question if we were to make memes about beta can we just put them in #sky-memes or do they have to be spoiler tagged?
They need to be in #beta-screenshots-videos , but to be honest, please don’t overdo it. We need to be able to have discussions and share gameplay content in these channels.
Beta content is not allowed outside of the beta channels
of course, thank you!
Im curious how long is the longest time someone waited for the appstore to release Beta app
Also, was there ever an instance too when someone got into the invite but never got the app?
i think a lot of people are still waiting to download the app. even people from the first wave.
I meant to know like waiting experiences that happened with the past wave invites, since today's situation is like being in the same boat, so idk what's up ahead
i wasn't around for the past invite waves so i have no idea lol sorry
The latest invite wave was when Android got beta. ETA: had to go check, but that was in November 2019.
that was when i didn't know this server existed lol ;v;
Anyone know what the purpose of the large tree in the vault is going to be? I’m assuming it’s just a cool way to get the star
it's part of polite stance's spirit story, can be only seen once- which is why it's so easy to forget about
The large tree is just decoration, yes. There may be some lore to it, but I don’t remember any specifics.
I was able to download within 24 hours when I first joined beta on android. I happened to already have the app downloaded with the access wipe and new invites this time around so I could just keep playing. There is a big difference right now from the last android beta invite: the access wipe. So people who were already testers had to rejoin and a LOT of new testers also joined.
oof if that's what you're asking then, yeah, as blep said
I remember the Vault trees were mentioned in one of the streams regarding the sounds they make, though. I always loved that sound.
Just had the most vivid flashback of old Vault. 
A little birdy once said, the less patient you are, the longer the wait.
yes
Wooohooooo , just got home from work and finished dinner already......tgc , I have time to test the new season now , so bring it on. Oh , but I have to sleep in like 3 hours so don’t wait to long
The new season is in beta now? That can’t be-
no, i don't think so
they probably would of put it in the patch notes/updates right
Yeah
Usually a new season in beta start sometime around after season ends in live. Past patch notes usually says when a season is added as well. Big element to test (and have fun with while doing so) 
In the beta when you hold hands in the race section the third person phases through the gate and the gate is still closed leaving the two people behind the locked gate- we had to not hold hands and sit down to go in all together
Do you mean the race in Valley? I think you all need to sit down in the designated spots for the doors to open.
When is the shepherd thing gonna really happen in live? I still don’t even know how it’s measured in beta
It may never happen. Features in beta don’t always make it to Live, especially if feedback is overall negative from players.
when you react to a message with the wrong reaction -_-
thanks em! i really needed to know when the new season starts to know when beta will actually be lively for once.
(and find new bugs
)
we don’t need to use spoiler text in the beta channels right? (like in looking for group and screenshots)
Ah I was not invited qwq
i don't think you do? maybe eden screenshots but i'm not exactly sure
Can we talk about upcoming seasons here? uwu
yes, but don't spread rumors/fake info
Oki.
Any guesses on what the next season could be about?
spoilers are pretty loose here, you dont really have to spoiler anything. the channels do have the "spoilers ahead" warning too 
true, true.
next season is about spoilers?
no, we're talking about a question someone asked lol
Haha yes I know 
My guess is something like spring
sky kid aerodynamics 
Seasons aren’t based on real world seasons
Beta is so empty I almost miss the aggressive HÖNKING moths would do- almost
Winter was based on winter because it was the first season, they said they’re not doing that anymore
i’ve given up on trying to open four player doors it’s so lonely
same lol
Is there anything new in beta right now?
not that i'm aware of apart from the blocking system-
Manta season
Oh wow we just need one minute to wait for write another text hehe not 15 minutes any more
manta?
Will we get a Krill season? Or a season in Eden?

Season of crabs
yEs.
well, it looks like were getting a season for prairie so its not impossible
Dark Season... Storms in every realm..
that would be cool lol
Scary
Moths die in Isle from getting hit by rocks 😂
most likely a wasteland themed or a dark creature or plant themed one though since eden would be a spoiler to new players
( wait nvm we have enchantment)
oh gosh that wouldn't be good. maybe don't let the moths get rocced
what if we got puzzle shrines like in BOTW themed after vault 
We need eden themed season to expand the lore..
Imagine showing a spirit his way in Eden ||amidst rock rain||
Yesssss!
Guys I still cant download beta in android anyone else ????
I got in the 2nd invite wave... And could download tho
I dont know why I cannot
Update your google account
A lot of new android testers are having this issue, you arent alone
we all seem to have different android problems and some being that we don't ;v;
Clear google play services data and cache
I've done that but I'll do it once again
you can try removing and readding the account with beta access
Wdym , how can I do that ?
Make sure there is enough storage and restart phone updates?
Go to playstore then settings then tap playstore version to check if it needs any update
Go to playstore then settings then tap playstore version to check if it needs any update
@proper helm
Okay and there is storage it just keeps saying that it's full
like, the way i do it is settings>accounts>google>(account with beta access)>remove but idk it could be different.
Is the Seasonal scheduled in a certain date, or will it appear at random?
It will appear when they are ready for us to test it
@proper helm
Okay and there is storage it just keeps saying that it's full
@restive palm Aha there u have it..
Do I have to update my phone to the latest too ? Does that help in any way ?
when it's ready. (slowmode ;v;)
yeah it should help but it might not but you can try.
Yes it will help Remove some things to make storage update the phone restart the phone and then try again
Yes it will help Remove some things to make storage update the phone restart the phone and then try again
@fresh crater
I have enough space and I've restarted my phone few past days
Make sure googles updated too
Delete unnecessary apps. Internal storage and app storage are different. You have to have enough app storage to download sky.. About 1.5GB for safety
My play store is up to date , what's wrong with Google:')
google is slow. it's trying to serve a storm of skykids.
Loll 😂🤣🤪😜🤣😂

@proper helm
Yes I have storage but it just keeps saying it's full like not even the download is showing as if I didnt submit for beta at all
Disappointing
What error does it show when trying to download beta?
yeah it does that. have you tried from play games?
You just have to wait, it's slow to update. Eventually we'll get in
It shows beta full or storage full?
Oh no Android vs iOS again?!
It's been a while now tho :/
I’m so sorry, I stick with Apple 🍎
i'm also android, but i got lucky and got in 2 days after (i was busy ;v;)
It shows beta full or storage full?
@proper helm
Beta full
I’d be so upset. 😭
yeah it does that. i'm pretty sure if you can download it it will say that but have the install button above it. that's just what it said for me.
Some of my android friends got it tho🤔
Yes theres people since wave 1 still waiting to get in. All we can do is be patient and wait. Ktjn said they were gathering info to try to troubleshoot with google
I cant send ss here sadly
1 min feels longer now🥺
Country plays a role tho , like if your country changed in playstore?
Hey guys, for anyone that knows about this kind of stuff...see how we can buy free season of enchantment candles? Do those turn to actual candles in the next season?
usually yes but due to the bug they'll prolly be wiped.
@copper bison I know in live they do turn to candles but it would be awesome if they did in beta. I’m in need of candles
yes, in beta. they usually turn into candles but due to the bug where you can buy the seasonal pass over and over to get a lot of seasonal candles, they'll most likely be wiped.
Where’s the no cape? In forest?
pins. forest whale call. 99 ascended candles and 999 hearts.
Is the new season yet?
is it out yet? nope.
Will the season candles I have now be converted? Is it the next season candle when it is converted? Is it an ordinary candle?
they usually turn into candles but due to the bug where you can buy the seasonal pass over and over to get a lot of seasonal candles, they'll most likely be wiped.
I understand. Thank you
When next season happening
we don't know. probably some time after enchantment ends in live
I got happy when i brought the seasonal candles i thought the season didn't finish 😭
Yay I got chibi in beta with flower hair
i don't know why, but it's only 1 minute so it's better than 15 lol. it might be bumped down slowly don't know tho
Beta i think
That person got them through illegitimate means, please don’t talk about them here
I'm sorry, I didn't know, so I asked.
Imagine how many questions are gonna be asked when the next season drops in beta 
1 day slowmode
oh gosh that would be chaotic
Imagine how many questions are gonna be asked when the next season drops in beta
thats when we remind people that this channel isnt a Q&A the beta members channel
:0
And yet 3 messages down from that reminder will be 5 new questions 

and this is why i'm saving some of the question's asked in a google document to paste them ;v; (the answers not the questions lol)
nah neon, you honestly don’t have to go so far as to do that. Beta-genchat’s focus is for peeps to chat about it. We’re not Q&A and curious people can always lurk and scroll up 
yeah i just get bored sometimes and do things like this lol
Did someone who was previously unable to download the beta experience any change recently?
(Just asking cause I don’t know and I don’t wanna mess up) is it illegal or something to spoil stuff that happens on beta to regular users??? (I mean if they ask for the spoilers)
if they ask i think you guys should talk about it in dms or in a beta chat so you don't ruin the other people's experience i think. it's not illegal, it's really just spoilers.
Thank you!!!!
Would installing the latest update manually get it to update?
I mean the issue is installing it, because the beta access is already saved to the account, right?
i'm not exactly sure what you mean but updating it manually isn't really different from just updating. if you're trying to install the beta, you need to install it and it would just immediately give you the newest update. but if you're trying to just update it and get it to install, that wouldn't really work because you don't have it in the first place. i'm not exactly sure but that's what i think happens, but i can't be sure.
SorrY i meant installing the newest apk manually
That would be against the tos, please wait for google to fix the issue!
you shouldn't be downloading those because it's against ToS. i just saw my slowmode go from 3 to 0 in like a second and it scared me ;v;
does the seasonal candles in beta will become normal candles?
usually yes but due to the bug they'll probably be wiped
It would be interesting to know what circumstances caused some android users to be able to download while others arent during the same wave 
is there a way to remove the beta invites ping?
I believe google is having trouble on many of their apps
it's most likely just google being slow with some players but i don't know. 
hmm, i actually don't know how to remove the beta invites ping lol
unreact to the roles lol
is there a way to remove the beta invites ping?
@spark lance you can go to faq i think the role is in there if you unreact to the message it gets rid of it, or if it doesn't show as reacted to u need to react and then unreact after
makes sense, should of thought of that lol
ohh, so there's the role-
Woah slowmode is still on.... w h y
@scarlet bronze to prevent the spam and to have time to read all uwu
Hmm-
So i just guess like-
Someone using apk and join in beta-
And the later people who join by wave is join later so they don't have slot-?
Nah-
Maybe no-
there was that one picture of what days what spirit comes but i can't remember where it was.
joining by apk is against tos. it will get you banned.
slowmode is only a minute, it's better than the 15 minutes we had to wait during the invite duration e.e
only 90's kids will remember the 15 minute slow mode 
in the beta channels you don't have to spoiler office i think
Someone who joins through an apk does not take up a beta slot because they didn’t actually get one through an official invite link. Their game will not work right, they won’t be able to download the rest of the levels, and they will probably be banned. Not to mention the malware that could very well be in those download packages from shady third parties
Not beta channels iirc
i'm pretty sure you don't have to spoiler office in beta channels. tho i could be wrong and it could be a different area.
to spoiler tag a message, put || in front and after the part that needs to be spoilered. to spoiler tag images and videos, put SPOILER_ in front of the name of the video/image.
he asked what is it, not how to do it
