beta-discussion

[kindred bluff]

my phone has folders called "why" "did" "i" "make" "these" "categories"

except i deleted the folder with "i" so now its just why did make these categories

okay but i really gotta know when the anniversary limited edition goes off shop like idk if its gonna be a preorder for a week now or until august 16th or 18th

[cobalt hare]

You have until August 18 to order from what it says

And it looks like all orders are preorders as of right now

[kindred bluff]

i hope so! i hope i can get in on some anniversary merch goodness

[open spindle]

Beta chat is so calm compared to general chat

[kindred bluff]

beta chat: is silent for almost a hour
general:

[lyric yew]

Definitely

[kindred bluff]

my parents will hate me for asking for a 71 dollar thing for some reason but im so curious im gonna sob

i wanna know whats in tbe box and i wanna know what the pins do

[random gull]

I'm thinking that anniversary box set is limited in that it won't return to the shop after pre-orders are done. So a lot of people can buy it but it's a limited time frame

[kindred bluff]

gotta beg my parents before its too late

if i cant i guess i'll get the classic crab or one of the design choices ones

[vapid drum]

I wonder what the crab pin will@bring forth 😍

[kindred bluff]

i wanna little crab friend thatse all

[random gull]

I still hope we get plushies eventually

[kindred bluff]

i hope so! i wanna little krill plushie or moth plushie 💦

pins are cool but,, im gonna lose them so fast

[ionic sorrel]

How about the pendant :))) i hope they sell seasonal pemdant

[lilac grove]

What about the krill pillow?

[kindred bluff]

krill pillow (to snuggle) pls

also idk if im gonna be getting the anniversary box its tempting but i might not,,, yall will have to tell me whats in it this hurts my heart

my parents might not think its worth it

[naive osprey]

Is there a reward for completing everything in the season?

[random gull]

The manta cape!

[naive osprey]

Ah okay lol

[lilac grove]

I can't get the Manta Cape!

3 seasonal hearts is gone

I changed it before I updated it

[kindred bluff]

you get the manta tornado ™️

decision making in the shop is so hard i dont even know what the pins do if i get them for the NFC

[lilac grove]

the pins will launch the game

[worldly star]

Huh when it says “limited time” does the pin’s NFC feature (for example the lightseekers cape) have a time limit and cool down or something? Because if it doesn’t it’ll be a wee bit unfair for those who got the cape back then or with candles

[blazing sail]

The pins are a cool idea but I don’t understand in the video how you launch the game already holding hands with friends?

[woven jacinth]

Ive been waiting for google to do its thing since the last time they did beta invites and still cant download it so ill just give up on that

[random gull]

App in the video their game was already open, just minimized. Probably what happens if you launch it from a completely closed out state is that you appear in home space with the spell applied

[blazing sail]

But it shows the game starting up, with the Sky logo and everything

If I minimize the game and it doesn’t get booted from memory, I don’t see the sky logo when I reopen it

[empty inlet]

that’s a dev build, anything can happen

[blazing sail]

Hmm

[cobalt hare]

I don't think the friends effect works if you're not holding hands, cause that would be really weird. And you can't hold hands if the game isn't booted up.

That part didn't make sense to me

[blazing sail]

Oh dang the pin of the two crabs piled up

That’s adorable

[cobalt hare]

Is there a rule against mentioning ktjn? I wanna tell staff that there's a broken button on the sky website but I don't think I can report it. I know it's 2am, but I will mention it tomorrow if I'm able

[dry pivot]

is the contact form broken for you?

[hollow compass]

Yes, generally cold pinging anyone is discouraged. If you do see staff active in a chat, it's usually ok to ping for attention. But often it's enough to just mention their name without pinging. Regarding that you could maybe use the e-mail provided for the website?

[spark lance]

Is there a rule against mentioning ktjn? I wanna tell staff that there's a broken button on the sky website but I don't think I can report it. I know it's 2am, but I will mention it tomorrow if I'm able
@cobalt hare you can use @hardy carbon

[cobalt hare]

Will do @spark lance

[blazing sail]

Why is the anniversary box earth day themed?

[cobalt hare]

The flower on the stacked crab pin is from the covid pack tho

So I think it includes all the fundraising stuff they've done, idk

[blazing sail]

Right I’m just wondering why it’s specifically an anniversary pack

Seems more like a pack that would be for fundraising

[spark lance]

ELDER OF THE PRAIRIE PIN has a "star"

Maybe it gives everyone the prairie elder hair?

I think TGC PIN would give me a tgc cape

[cobalt hare]

What would the crab one do is my question? Spawn crabs?

Or would it flip all the crabs in the area over? That sounds super useful

[hollow compass]

The verse kind of implies "a friend"?

[spark lance]

I remember there was a crab hat in the game

What would the crab one do is my question? Spawn crabs?
@cobalt hare

[hollow compass]

A crab hat? No, we've had a pumpkin hat, though.

[spark lance]

oh right

[blazing sail]

If it makes a crab follow you around like a pet.... that’s gonna be one popular pin

[spark lance]

maybe it gives you a crab ,you can play with it 😆

[wide ledge]

@hollow compass we kinda have one, the straw hat has a crab on it

[hasty vessel]

Imagine if the crab healer pin allows you to heal all the crabs temporarily so they don’t attack you

[elder musk]

We can now literally pin any message we want ☺️

[stoic badger]

They havent really explained their functionality or whether the pins will work on iOS, so im waiting 👀

[blazing sail]

It says at the bottom

It’s only on iOS right now

Wonder what the star in-game community will be

[stoic badger]

Only on iOS? Dammmmmnnnnn

I figured it'd be the reverse given Apple's hesitance to give devs access to NFC, Android users get left out again

[toxic oasis]

The pins are a cool idea but I don’t understand in the video how you launch the game already holding hands with friends?
@blazing sail what are you all taking about ? I’m confuse. What video?

[kindred bluff]

the pins im really curious about their functionality are:
•the difference between the flipped over crab and the healing crabs in the anniversary pack
•the elders? it might give cosmetics but theres lots of other possibilities like summoning light creatures
•the TGC pin
•you and i pins
•harp pin
•both earth day anniversary pins

also wth is in the box i want to buy it just to peek but its very expensies and i have no monie

[blazing sail]

It shows you if you scroll through the photos

The pins and poster come in the box

Plus a surprise

[kindred bluff]

yesyes whats the suprise bro i gotta know

[blazing sail]

But then it wouldn’t be a surprise

[kindred bluff]

good point

[toxic oasis]

It shows you if you scroll through the photos
@blazing sail where?? 😅

[blazing sail]

Still confused as to why the anniversary box is earth day themed

[tender oasis]

https://www.thatskyshop.com/pages/what-is-star scroll down here for the video Ryory 😃

[blazing sail]

Ryory, the video I’m talking about is here: https://www.thatskyshop.com/pages/what-is-star

Jinx

[kindred bluff]

it has themes of the healing relief pack and the earth day pack,, i guess themes of just helping out i dunno

if the pins give you the ability to wear the cosmetics i wont get jt because i already have the cosmetics and i dont want to lose the precious pins

[blazing sail]

Two earth day pins tho. It’s a little odd

[toxic oasis]

Ryory, the video I’m talking about is here: https://www.thatskyshop.com/pages/what-is-star
@blazing sail o dang.. wwwhhhaaaaaat? Hahahaahaha 😂 well at least it justifies the prices ☝️❤️

[blazing sail]

I feel like people would buy out the healing crabs pin on its own in like 5 seconds

[spark lance]

This exclusive box includes "Our Sky As One" Poster and three NFC-enabled STAR pins: Earth Day Friendship Pin, Earth Day Cape Pin, Healer Crabs Pin, and a Surprise Gift.

[kindred bluff]

i would buy the poster and special gift on its own right away tbh

[austere merlin]

Soundtrack??

[spark lance]

wait, surprise gift?!!

[blazing sail]

But you don’t know what the surprise is

What if it’s a bag of glitter

[kindred bluff]

i'd eat it man

[spark lance]

I wish it’s a season pass

[slow narwhal]

It'd make more sense if some money spent on the box also went towards those causes....

[blazing sail]

Maybe it was supposed to be open for earth day but it got delayed?

So now it’s an anniversary pack? It’s not really anniversary themed. Or fitting for an anniversary box. It’s weird

[slow narwhal]

Yea

They're pretty and all, it's just confusing

[kindred bluff]

yall probably read this already but

"Every candle you passed along,
Every heart you warmed since dawn.
Every star you shared the light,
Every soul you touched in Sky.
Every white flower, you supported,
Every new tree you planted.
Here is the Box of Gratitude,
Truly from us to you."

[blazing sail]

Right

[slow narwhal]

Should have been at least one moth heh

[kindred bluff]

i think they're just thanking us for supporting those causes i suppose 💦

[slow narwhal]

I did but maybe that was added on afterwards as not everyone bought those things and it's not really a gift if you're paying it.

[blazing sail]

But that’s what the in-game items were for

[stoic badger]

My message got mysteriously nuked, hmmm.

I found the page poems creepy, its a for-profit business selling $20 pins, this aint a charity 👀

[kindred bluff]

true true

[blazing sail]

The manta poem had me

[slow narwhal]

I wondered if the poems are hints about what they do in the game

[spark lance]

maybe covid disrupted their plan, so....

Maybe it was supposed to be open for earth day but it got delayed?
@blazing sail

[blazing sail]

What is “up on migration” ?

[slow narwhal]

Maybe the thank you is in the gift item

[stoic badger]

taka begins to understand why his messages keep getting nuked by a bot

[kindred bluff]

birds fly into the ||light in orbit|| as a migration

mantas too but not a lot

[blazing sail]

But the wording is strange

[stoic badger]

If i can ill probably get the overturned crab pin, tis cute and crabs should be ded

[slow narwhal]

And then it gives a ghost crab for a pet

[kindred bluff]

you and i pins have a eden and megabird refrence, eden being the storm at night and passing through into the stars i guess? i dunno

[slow narwhal]

Just speculation

[stoic badger]

I highly doubt they did anything that fancy, these pins are almost definitely going to reuse abilities and assets in the game

[blazing sail]

Sky unboxing videos in 3 2 1

[kindred bluff]

hey guys welcome back to another unboxing video

[stoic badger]

its ya boy, Captain Taka with another AMAAAAZING unboxing

[blazing sail]

I wonder if anyone will buy all the pins so they can make unboxing videos of them

[kindred bluff]

pleas im not gonna

[stoic badger]

Someone certainly will

[blazing sail]

At least it would be free shipping 😂

[stoic badger]

stares at AppUnwrapper

[slow narwhal]

There were ghostly crabs in ||office|| though

[spark lance]

I think there will be amiibo cards in the future, when Sky goes live on Nintendo switch. Just like pins, they are all nfc

[stoic badger]

Stuff like pets require a lot of production work and testing though, its highly unlikely to be anything like that given the work and testing required

[blazing sail]

The poem for the crab certainly makes it seem like a pet tho. But agree that would be surprising

[kindred bluff]

also i know its probably a "megabird connects all of us" or something else more modern and canon cause i think they said it wasn't, but i think the wording for "i am you and you are me" is kinda creepy in a way especially if you dont intensely scroll through the lore discussion

[slow narwhal]

Maybe we'll see something in beta

[kindred bluff]

"With love and gratitude,
We connect as one.
You are us,
We are you"
this was the text in italic and bold in the "our mission" section of the website pls

i know yall just trynna be nice but please dont be me i am me

[slow narwhal]

One of us
One of us

[kindred bluff]

NOOOII

[spark lance]

ねえマンタ　光を追いかけて
そうすれば　いつでも一緒に飛べるから
並んで　より高く
もう一度　故郷へ
Hey manta chasing light
That way you can always fly together
Side by side higher
Once again to my hometown

[slow narwhal]

Sounds rather pretty, though the song Country Roads started sneaking into my head in reading it.

[tender oasis]

Some of the pins are glow in the dark too

[kindred fossil]

certainly someone already bought all pins

[blazing sail]

The people who buy the ultimate gift on day 1

[slow narwhal]

How much would that be?

[blazing sail]

Didn’t do the math but at least shipping would be free

[stoic badger]

at that rate youre basically being paid to get the pins, its a steal

I do like the pins though, just wish they'd communicated their functionality properly

[blazing sail]

Yeah having it as a mystery means people will probably wait for unboxing videos

[random gull]

I did buy $130 worth of pins myself 3 pins and the limited anniversary box set

[slow narwhal]

I'm thinking about an extra $125 or so cad for getting everything day one. Not sure what the us costs are. They say you need 292 candles total and I think it was 30 that came with the pass if you preordered.

[amber umbra]

I did buy $130 worth of pins myself 3 pins and the limited anniversary box set
@random gull same >.>

[tender oasis]

I was thinking about the group cosmetic with the pins. I'm curious how will they ensure that players can't abuse the feature and change friends cosmetics against their will by using the pins.

[dapper swallow]

i feel like the beta waves are gonna come today, like the wipe

[hollow compass]

But the season isn't over in beta.

[dapper swallow]

sob

[hollow compass]

even #beta-known-issues says there is a new patch coming soon

I don't think a new wave will happen until there is a new season to test.

[empty river]

access wipe/waves are most likely gonna be towards the end of the season in live

[dapper swallow]

phew

[sand dawn]

@tender oasis it’s an awesome cape though.. and if they don’t want the change,
I’m assuming they can just let go hands and the transformation would fade..?

[spark lance]

Ahh I wanna know what all the STAR features are so I know what pin to getttt

[austere merlin]

Is this new technology? Or has this been around for a while?

[random gull]

the tech is old (it's like amiibo and tap-pay kiosks) but it's a new feature for sky specifically

[austere merlin]

Ah

[random gull]

I actually think that it'll work with the switch when the release it this summer. the pins ETA ship date is september which is end of summer and switch release is sometime between now and then (if nothing goes chaotically wrong)

too bad switch can't beta test

[austere merlin]

How would the switch scan the pins tho?

[random gull]

same way it scans amiibo cards. the joycons are NFC compatible

[austere merlin]

Oh darn nice

[tender oasis]

Lilichi I know it is and i dont have friends who would abuse it . we often use the same cosmetics when we are together but every player is different so there's still a chance someone would force it to otherd if they can. I'm just thinking on the pros and cons, that's all.😅

[random gull]

I'm really hype to try sky on switch (totally did not buy a switch specifically for sky and other games were just a bonus )

[hollow compass]

Oh, that's clever! Maybe they thought of that for the upcoming Switch release, since those players will not have had access to any of the past items.

[fast violet]

The beta can be so lonely sometimes.

[toxic oasis]

There’s no prices in GBP on the website hehe but it’s okaaay 😂❤️

[sudden flower]

oooh maybe the poems really do hint at what the pin does...

the crab one is

Searching high and low.
Walking far and wide.
No crabs in tow?
Nor neighbors aside?
If they were to follow...
Could you be a friend?

maybe it makes the crabs around you docile and makes them follow you? or maybe it summons a passive crab that follows you?

[fast violet]

That would be amazing.

[random gull]

oh I hope so I got the anniversary pack with healing crabs

[sudden flower]

the one for TGC pin is:

May there be sunshine in your soul,
Let the starlight be your wings,
Our memories as one.

maybe it auto-recharges your cape?

a crab ""pet ""would indeed be amazing, but i'll see what the unboxers have to show us haha

[fast violet]

Well, pets don’t really fit the “sky vibe check” but maybe they’re turning over a new leaf with pets?

[spark lance]

Maybe it's a new way to go to office?

[random gull]

I wonder if any of the pins comes with candles

[fast violet]

I hope so

[sudden flower]

but the founder's cape costs quite a bit more than this pin, so i dont think it would let you into the office (since that wouldn't be fair to people who bought founder's cape)

[fast violet]

True

Maybe it’s just a new cape?

[random gull]

pins are 2/3 the cost of founders pack in USD. idk about other currencies

[fast violet]

Any other poems?

[random gull]

actually the TGC logo I think was slightly less? the pins I bought were $20 but there were a few for $17

[blazing sail]

Lol it’s too much effort to change into my cape to get to the meditation spot in beta

[sudden flower]

manta:
Follow the light, sweet Manta.
For we will fly with you.
Side by side, up on migration.
To home once more.

summon smol manta lol? probably not but would be cool

lol yeah i kept forgetting the office party ended in beta

[fast violet]

While I read that I got strong eden vibes.

[random gull]

ok but maybe it does summon a manta to ride

[fast violet]

Like, REALLY STRONG eden vibes.

[random gull]

manta protects you from the rock rain in eden?

[fast violet]

That would sort of defeat the purpose of the rocks in eden.

[sudden flower]

idk what they mean by "home", but i was thinking sanctuary? i feel like sanctuary is a manta sanctuary. where they get birthed or something before they go through migration

[fast violet]

I thought that too. Maybe... maybe there will be a little extension to the sanctuary? No, an entire place, seems like too much coming from a small pin.

[sudden flower]

the last part of prairie elder pin poem:
"Fly up, fly away,
For the Children of Light in need.
We shall recall our days of wonder,
And feel its air once more."

maybe you get a butterfly jar? or it just summons some butterflies?

[fast violet]

That would be cool.

Maybe a little thing that goes on your back like the chair or swing.

[sudden flower]

not sure about the others, but I feel like the line about holding hands with friend in the pair pin poem is hinting at something

[fast violet]

Yeah, maybe a new friend emote?

[sudden flower]

oooh maybe

[fast violet]

Ooh, upgraded hand holding?

[sudden flower]

hand-holding that never breaks (unless you want it to)

maybe harp pin plays some music or gives you a new sheet music and fox mask pin just....gives u fox mask i guess

[fast violet]

Didn’t the fox mask traveling spirit already pass through here?

Maybe the harp pin gives you a different kind of harp?

[random gull]

sassy stance (that has the weasel mask everyone thinks is a fox) has returned twice already. there is a mask that is referred to as both fox and rabbit mask by TGC though. it has also returned but is not a pin

!foxmask

[gilded parrot]

rafbobixt

[kindred fossil]

fox mask is superior

[tough pebble]

Scary though

[random gull]

before the rafbobixt mask, that command used to say "did you mean weasel mask"

[kindred fossil]

that's why it's superior

all of the gratitude masks got that ugly/scary charm to them, except for weasel

which is why it's my least favorite gratitude mask

[random gull]

I love rafbobixt though! 🤣

[tough pebble]

Yeah gratitude had the best mask design next to rhythm

Rhythm is just bird

[random gull]

really cool bird masks. I never wear any of them but they were definitely fun designs

[tough pebble]

I like lightseekers too but they're just the normal mask with stuff on it

[random gull]

I want a cat mask so bad

[tough pebble]

We need more masks

Last season was three and this season they're just two, maybe next season it's just one

[random gull]

oh no

oh what if season of masks

[grand maple]

are people who arent part of the beta testing allowed to give feedback on beta features? I’m aware of some stuff in beta that I have a bit of critique for but im not actually in the program

[random gull]

I don't think anyone's asked that before maybe try dming @hardy carbon to ask?

[grand maple]

ok, thank you!

[hollow compass]

Krillow, I would tentatively say no, because you need to experience it yourself and be able to describe how it affects your gameplay in beta. If something you didn't like when you saw it here also ends up in beta, you can still leave feedback and it's not unheard of that things are changed because of player feedback. We have seen that happen with many things in Live.

[grand maple]

that's what i am expecting, if its not allowed and it becomes a feature in the live version i will most definitely leave feedback for it! Maybe if its still not implemented i can pick up the beta program when it's open again.
thank you anyways!

[random gull]

true. there's definitely been changes after things go live devs do their best to try and make the game awesome for everyone

[primal pagoda]

You’re allowed to leave feedback, of course. If not, the #beta-feedback channel wouldn’t be visible to everyone from the first place

[grand maple]

Thank you for all your guys' help and guidance ^^ For now I'll wait so i can double check when ThatHelpBot comes back with an answer.

[lusty light]

The fox mask isn’t referred to rabbit mask by tgc the command is a joke

[random gull]

oooh ok. it is a fun joke

so it's officially a fox?

[lusty light]

Yes

[amber umbra]

I like how the weasel mask has a kitsune vibe (making it look like a fox), and the fox mask has a rabbit vibe to it

It makes me laugh

[lusty light]

No the weasel mask is too round to be a fox

The fox mask looks more like a Japanese fox mask

[random gull]

it'd be cool to have rl masks that look like the sky masks! fox mask would be so pretty as a real mask

[devout terrace]

certainly someone already bought all pins
@kindred fossil that would be me 😂 Every last one of them! 💙

[blazing sail]

The orange mask has too short a nose to be fox tho

And weasels don’t have pointy ears

[random gull]

that's how kitsune masks are in Japan though that season seemed to be mostly revolving around Japanese styles

[blazing sail]

Weasels have like short roundish ears. The ears on the mask are big and pointy like a fox’s

[random gull]

I'm talking about the one that is actually called fox mask. that's how kitsune masks look in Japan. none of the masks actually look like the animals they represent

[fresh crater]

Good morning ☀️ love the shop and new star pins

[kindred fossil]

@devout terrace woah, nice

[fresh crater]

Hay! Finally got into 4 person door 2nd floor vault, by myself wow it took me awhile

[random gull]

I can do it pretty quickly with my table if I go to a certain spot

[fresh crater]

We all know how clumsy I am loll

I need lessons for sure

[random gull]

I can show you after work if you want!

[fresh crater]

We need an OOB class for us clumsy ones 😂

Sure nice 👍 yes p,ease

[kindred fossil]

i wouldn't look too much into how realistic the masks could've been, it could be a stylistic choice if anything

[blazing sail]

I’m just saying that weasel will always be fox to me

[kindred fossil]

it'll always be the most inferior gratitude mask to me to each their own

[worn field]

i don’t mind people calling weasel mask a fox mask in their head, i just get confused when we don’t use consistent names in conversation about it

[blazing sail]

I vote we call one Fox Weasel and the other Rabbit Cat Fox

[kindred fossil]

gratitude masks:

• fox weasel
• rabbit cat fox
• demon ogre oni crab
• dragon demon bull
• dragon crow unicorn garuda
• deer

[lusty light]

• deer

[worn field]

• dear

[blazing sail]

Never heard the one with a horn called a dragon

Also gotta Google Garuda

Garuda is a gryphon??

Oh wait. Human body with eagle head

[proper helm]

Gryffin is lion headed eagle or something like that

[azure copper]

Its a mythical bird. "Second Voyage of Sinbad the Sailor" have a story about Roc bird picking up cattle from Diamonds valley. Garuda carrying off an elephant is a mytheme from Indian Mahabharata.

[proper helm]

Garuda is Lord Vishnu's bird

His vehicle mount

[azure copper]

Ramayana have it too.

[steep ferry]

only found 3 seasonal candle bunches ;-;

[hollow compass]

Did you check on the second floor of Vault?

[tough pebble]

I think the dragon demon bull looks more like quetzalcoatl

[random gull]

I forgot to post the locations in beta this morning heck I knew I forgot something

[steep ferry]

wait, rather than compensating the 3 hearts for beta, why not just undo the purchasing of all hearts in the seasonal constellation, so we can get seasonal candles and repurchase them ourselves? That way it's not really compensation

since compensation won't happen in beta

[hollow compass]

I think the moment has passed already.

[steep ferry]

just an idea, that's true tho lol ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lyric kite]

I would imagine that still would take some work to undo, and since it's just beta it's not really worth the effort for them to do that when they could spend their efforts on improving or fixing other things

[hollow compass]

It's just a few days left of the season in beta anyway.

[lyric kite]

You have to remember, beta exists for testing purposes only. As long as the devs are able to get the info they need from our testing, the purpose of beta has been achieved. If you want to max out on stuff and get all items, that's what the live game is for

[random gull]

yeah we were able to view the cape in the closet to provide our feedback on it. enough people weren't affected by it that they got what they needed testing wise. I say this as someone who can't get manta cape

[rocky solar]

This is pretty good way to bring back previous ults

[spark lance]

OMG THE FRICKIN PIN MERCH SEEMS SO COOL OML

anyone ordered any? The limited edition package is pretty expensive. Not that the other ones aren’t lmao. Actually thinking about it, they could cost 5 euros and i would still not be able to get them since im broker than my pelvis after trying to do the split

[random gull]

I ordered the limited box set. nobody will receive until September (or later if production is affected in any way)

[quaint onyx]

Your pelvis is a wallet?

[exotic gorge]

Omg I need to collect all the pins they each do different things in sky

[spark lance]

Play on words broke as in poor and broke as in broken

Ahahaha my jokes are so good. Truly the best comedian of this generation. Wheres my award

[quaint onyx]

Who takes financial advice from thier torso
Buy

[random gull]

[exotic gorge]

You scan the star in the back of the pin to your iPhone and does something special in game

[spark lance]

IKR? IVE SEEN THE DEMO VIDEO IM EXCITED TO SEE WHAT THE OTHER ONE DO!! ESPECIALLY THE MANTA AND THE CRAB ONE

[stoic ocean]

I bought the flipped crab. I really want to know if it flips the crabs for you LOL

[exotic gorge]

Hope we get a special Oreo pin

I ordered the limited edition pins and poster

[rocky solar]

same

[stoic ocean]

I ordered the limited box set too-

I want to know what the other pins do

[exotic gorge]

I’m so excited that’s some awesome tech

[stoic ocean]

The manta and the pair pin especially

[spark lance]

I ordered the “ get a job and get a life” one 😍😍😍

[exotic gorge]

I know the manta one might be a pet

[spark lance]

Didnt they say they werent going to add pets?

[glossy sedge]

does anyone know will the pin work on beta?

[stoic badger]

Dont expect pets, remember that it would take a lot of extra dev work and would need to be beta tested

[rocky solar]

it should

[stoic badger]

Expect currently available functions in the game

[stoic ocean]

I agree

I was thinking the manta would call a “ride”

[spark lance]

Dont expect pets, remember that it would take a lot of extra dev work and would need to be beta tested
@stoic badger sis thats their JOB lmaooo. They add what we like. Unless it doesn’t fit the lore and they have to release a statement explaining about it

[exotic gorge]

An Oreo mask would be nice

[spark lance]

I think when we scan the pin we will be able to eat the manta idk

[exotic gorge]

What if you can be an elder with there pin

[stoic ocean]

Eat it? LOL why eat it?

[spark lance]

Eat it? LOL why eat it?
@stoic ocean Vitamins

[stoic badger]

@spark lance Of course, but its best to measure expectations when they havent said anything

[stoic ocean]

Dying

Wonder what the TGC logo pin does

[quaint onyx]

Makes you look ballin'

As the kids say

[spark lance]

You get an invite to work at TGC 🥴

[exotic gorge]

That crab pin is called healer crab pin so maybe they can get summon to heal you 😄

[normal monolith]

Pins provide ingame bonuses?

[exotic gorge]

Yes

[spark lance]

AWWWWW the crab said “ heal, creature that has to die repeatedly and be revived everytime”

[empty inlet]

or probably the flower head accessory

[random gull]

the pins are like spells. I'm willing to bet they'll have the same 10 minute limit and a cooldown like the spells in game already have

[spark lance]

It was a crime not making a Krill pin so that we can summon a krill

OML immagine trolling the moths with that 🥴

[hasty vessel]

The krill would eat you first before the moths

[random gull]

I think that devs try to reduce griefing not add to it

[hasty vessel]

[spark lance]

Moths be like: where did that come out of?
Me:🤰🤰🤰 yes sir’ my baby 🍼

[hollow compass]

@spark lance Save your money. You need to go order some Loona merch on Monday, BBC called 😉

[spark lance]

@spark lance Save your money. You need to go order some Loona merch on Monday, BBC called 😉
@hollow compass OMGG PERIODTTT!!! Sis is still saving up for that Lightstick lmao

[hollow compass]

Priorities.

[spark lance]

They have ben feeding us well doe

More than krills are feeding from us-

[hollow compass]

Anyway, the merch isn't really beta specific, so we can also discuss it elsewhere.

[spark lance]

OML LETS GO BE ANNOYING ON GENERAL LMAO

[stoic badger]

But this is the chill place to talk, general is a human moodboard

[spark lance]

right

[random gull]

there's nothing really beta specific going on right now aside from the bell quests that live hasn't unlocked yet

[hollow compass]

True, but beta channels are meant for beta chat, not an escape for other madness.

[spark lance]

Thats the biggest disappointment besides my birth-

[serene goblet]

can someone sent me the link of the demo vid? I can't find it anywhere

[normal monolith]

The pins look fun to test 👀

[hollow compass]

Goosë, what demo video?

[stoic badger]

They show a demo of the cape pin giving you and anyone holding your hand the cape

[normal monolith]

Heres where the demo video is : https://www.thatskyshop.com/pages/what-is-star

[hollow compass]

~~that's not a beta question ~~

[normal monolith]

oop sorry should i delete?

[hollow compass]

no never mind, people are spilling over here because other places are so messy right now

[random gull]

it's ok to go off topic here. I think it's when it gets excessive (especially when there are important beta things to discuss) that reminders are needed to get back on topic

[tough pebble]

Ah so the star thing is basically an amibo

[stoic badger]

Basically, but they havent said what any other pin does

[tough pebble]

Guess Nintendo has more things to sell

When switch release comes out

Lmao imagine skykid amibo

[hollow compass]

It's not really ok to go off topic here. This isn't a free-for-all chat where you can hang out because another chat is too crowded.

[empty river]

it's not ok to go off-topic anywhere, in fact

[random gull]

in that case anything that isn't the 2nd through last bell quests or the bluetooth/facebook constellations can go to general right?

[hollow compass]

Anything pertaining to beta specifically goes here. The shop is indeed in beta, but it's not specific to beta - yet. Perhaps in the future we will be able to test certain features for it, such as the Star thing. Until then, it should probably only be discussed in Live general and QnH.

[bitter imp]

In beta, it looks as though the season ends in 5 days. Am I reading that right? Does that mean time to cash in season hearts for ultimate gift will end in 5 days?

[rocky solar]

yep

so better hurry lol

[bitter imp]

Ok, seems like there is a lot of time between 5 days from now and the next season?

[rocky solar]

yes lol

[lyric kite]

Beta seasons are always shorter because they're just for testing

[bitter imp]

Right, but that’s REALLY short

[hollow compass]

There may be other features up for testing after that. We already know there is another patch coming soon.

[rocky solar]

mhm

[random gull]

we do get 11 candles daily vs the 6 daily candles live gets. the seasons are certainly longer than they used to be in beta

[worn field]

the #beta-faq told us to expect shortened seasons in beta. a long season doesn’t help much with testing.

[serene goblet]

*slowly waits for STAR supports in Android *

I cant even preorder to get the NFC since I have a android phone

[spark lance]

You can still preorder it but you can't use its STAR feature

Most of devices has NFC though

NFC isn't a new feature

[tough quest]

Anyone know if the spell can be used without the pin and like link to your account? Worried about losing the pin and curious if you need to always carry the pin

[tough pebble]

Best way to see the feature urself is if a friend of yours has iOS and bought the pin, then y'all could use it

[empty inlet]

Awaiting more details from tgc

[tough quest]

Is there concern it will sell out before the August date?

[empty inlet]

dunno

[tough quest]

Okay thanks for the info 🙂

[proper helm]

100% sanctuary constellation complete

The hand pan sounds so good

If not for the bug I would have had the manta cape too

[tough quest]

How do you guys feel about the 8 note setup for the handpan, as opposed to the full scale?

[empty inlet]

there're only 8 tones on one handpan

[random gull]

I think it's set up that way because in game it is a base instrument. it gets the same part of sheet music that the horn and drums get.

[empty inlet]

true and you can check it in game

[hollow compass]

What do you mean by "truth on this"? It says in the game that it ends in 5 days.

[random gull]

we don't know 100% for sure. they may extend it if needed for testing purpose but as of right now that is the planned date to end it

[kindred fossil]

season itself is ending in 5, but there won't be an access wipe for a good 2 months

more or less

[amber umbra]

So excited — I managed to 100% the constellation and get both ultimates

I LOVE THE MANTA CAPE OMG

[robust hawk]

thanks for answering guys.. just one more question, since i got the Manta Cape already, will it still benefit me if i still farm for candles + SC?

[random gull]

if you want to it's up to you. those seasonal candles convert to regular candles at the end of the season

[robust hawk]

i was thinking they would wipe everything like before we started, and everyone started with 50 regular candles..

[random gull]

that was because of the infinite season pass bug

[hollow compass]

They never wiped anything before we started, except the erroneous candles.

[random gull]

some people had thousands (and even tend of thousands) of illicitly obtained candles. so to make things easier they reset everyone's candle count to 20 because they wanted us to actually play the game and test it

[spark lance]

Nothing is infinite now

Are they going to add the invisible cape to live?

[random gull]

I think a few people had some earned candles wiped but not a large amount of candles. there was only like 2-3 days of candles we could earn before the wipe

[robust hawk]

no they won't add it 'yet'..

[random gull]

check the pins for info on the invisicape

[robust hawk]

@random gull yes i tried to spam the season candles from enchantment season 😁 *guilty

but ended up with 20 regular candles..

[spark lance]

I also spammed some giftable passes

But they're just useless

[random gull]

I spammed it too but I was thoroughly certain I wouldn't get to keep them I think I did like 15 to record it and bug report. and then kept doing more after the recording because I was laughing so hard (idk why I though it was so funny)

[hollow compass]

I didn't get any.

[vapid briar]

even I spammed the button a handful of times to record it for posterity, lol.

the big thing was people that did it hundreds or thousands of times (or y'know, the kid who got it to a million candles) which tips into the abuse territory that impacts normal testing.

[random gull]

a million

[kindred fossil]

that's one muscular finger

[random gull]

[sonic talon]

I found a bug that’s in both Beta and Live, do I only report it in Beta bugs or do I report it in both?

[quaint onyx]

Or, it was all one big secret social experiment, to test the gaming population's proclivity to immediate gratification. Like that mouse and the pleasure button thing.
And we failed

[vapid briar]

if it's in live, submit a live report.

[quaint onyx]

All our gamer tags will be reported to future insurance companies

Report: Cannot keep hand out of cookie jar

[vapid briar]

Good thing you can't create a gamer tag in Sky then, huh?

[quaint onyx]

I would never get appoved for a car loan
I steer kid go bonk bonk

[random gull]

I sometimes wonder what the people I give candles to name me

[quaint onyx]

Cool dude

If I was a smart monkey person, I'd name all my friends things in a daily to-do list. Combine two things, sending hearts fragments and checking off chores

Hello water plants Been awhile

Oh, but if they leave Sky.... Deds plants

[random gull]

oh you mean lighting your friends is like watering plants?

[blazing sail]

I think most of us used that glitch so we wouldn’t be the one sucker left without any candles if TGC somehow let us keep them

At least that’s why I did

Joke’s on me, tho, bc I ended up losing my actual earned candles after

[random gull]

yeah that seemed to be the consensus of people I talked to about it. but man most of my friends had 5x+ what I had

[willow lion]

Ktjn has the team been able to figure out what’s up with one of the hairstyles of the current season, the one that gets a rectangular bald spot on the back when wearing the... cargo pants? (Is also sort of appears while wearing other pants too)

[random gull]

yeah they've addressed that (though I probably could find exactly where right now). something about some clipping is unavoidable because of character rigging

[worn field]

that bug is going to be fixed in the next patch for the live game, i believe

[rocky solar]

seriously LOL million

[random gull]

I think they were referring to chibi though cuz chibi has that rectangle no matter which pants you're wearing

[worn field]

i’m just going off this quote from Ktjn

This is a bug that only occurs with that specific hair while equipping those specific pants. It was something that wasn't discovered during beta in time for the Live build, which happens from time to time. It has already been fixed by the development team but will not make its way to Live until the next Patch update. Please have a little patience until that time.
(https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/575818672476782634/733387531529486436)

[willow lion]

I wouldn’t call it “addressed “ cuz i see it to be worse in live than beta

[lusty light]

They said that the bug got fixed, idk what you would call it because it was addressed

[willow lion]

So it will corrected in the next patch?

[worn field]

the next patch in the live game, yes

[willow lion]

Ok, I understood by addressed as already fixed... which confused me since i still see the bug

[random gull]

I actually don't wear my chibi mask in live much. I should wear that hair sometimes because it's cute

[willow lion]

I dont use that mask, just below average height

[random gull]

I was tallest height then used a resize I think I'm like 3 above shortest now

[proper galleon]

Is the portrait mode still not available on the real game ?

[worn field]

that's correct

[vapid drum]

Does the sanctuary waterfall visual bug still needs reporting for the iPad Pro models ?

I think the problem is known since Ive seen bug reports in live too

And no high priority

[slim kayak]

Report any and every bug you see! More info is always better for the devs

[vapid drum]

True , but i know some bugs will get on the shelf as not having priority because its not game breaking

[crystal onyx]

Hey where are people getting all the bowties? Is it from a seasonal spirit or an event I missed?

(I missed the birthday hat in beta so I’m asking just in case)

[random gull]

All helps to report any bugs you see even if they're low priority. Just don't troll the devs with reports on things they've said are functioning correctly

Bowties are from grouchy spirit near the top of the tree so it takes a lot of candles to unlock

[worn field]

the bowtie is from a seasonal spirit (from season of sanctuary)

[crystal onyx]

Oh good, thanks!

[blazing sail]

Dead channel.

[vapid briar]

[sharp scroll]

I think its cuz discord is down currently

[vapid briar]

There are tons of non-beta channels if you want more activity.

Also that, yes. Discord itself (as well as many other Cloudflare services) was down for a while.

[vapid drum]

Beta channel deserves rest too

[cobalt hare]

I find the comparison between invite links being sent and now quite shocking

Can almost remove slowmode from this channel now

[lyric kite]

Beta really isn't all that exciting when there isn't anything new to test. It was said when the invite waves were going on and everyone was freaking out about it, but a lot of people didn't want to listen then. Now there is nothing new and it's quiet

[vapid briar]

I could but 10 seconds does no harm and the second a new build comes out 100 people ask the same question without stopping to think or read the conversation.

just easier to keep it on, especially when builds drop when you least expect it

[cobalt hare]

True, I don't think it makes too much of a difference. I need to work on not sending multiple different lines in my messages anyways

Huh so we're not the only ones unsure of when beta updates drop 😅

[vapid briar]

taking your time to compose your thoughts is a good skill

doesn't need to be ktjn-tier small novels, but stream of consciousness posting has its pros and cons as well.

Oh I know when they're coming, lol, but sometimes a build planned for friday doesn't slither out til sunday morning or something

[spark lance]

Guys I can't get handpan

Guys cant get manta cape I mean

[cobalt hare]

🐍🦎<--- builds are snakes, quest spirit is lizard. I love reptiles

[lyric kite]

Many people in beta are unable to get the manta cape, if you spent your seasonal hearts on the handpan before it was officially made available and was showing the 🚫 icon. People who did that lost the item and their seasonal hearts. But since it's beta, there isn't compensation for stuff like that, as long as the devs are still able to get what they need for testing purposes

[spark lance]

When the season started I brought hand pan it was glicthed didn't show up when I three seasonal heart brought handpan and cannot get manta cape

[lyric kite]

Yes, and read my post above. They don't compensate for stuff like that in beta because it's just beta, it's meant for testing. You don't need to be able to complete everything and collect everything, if you want to do that it's what the live version of the game is for

[lusty light]

They said this in #beta-known-issues and #beta-announcements

[blazing sail]

Also that, yes. Discord itself (as well as many other Cloudflare services) was down for a while.
Including my site. It was not fun.

[clear portal]

I’ve scrolled up but can’t find a link to the bell locations. Anyone able to direct me?

[rocky solar]

Oh yeah, new update is needed to change the traveling spirit data for next thursday huh

So new build is pushed to sunday to kinda match with traveling spirit update, maybe..

[lusty light]

Why does the traveling spirit data need to be changed

[ionic sorrel]

anybody know the location of the seasonal candles

[rocky solar]

If not then previous traveling spirit before the new one will pop out mysteriously cough

[worn field]

have we been getting updates at least as frequently as every 2 weeks though? im not sure we have

[rocky solar]

This information was kind of given when 0.9.2 came out( people didn't update because of mushroom so somehow the traveling spirit before the new one popped out)

[lusty light]

We’ve been getting less frequent updates because the devs are working from home

Anything that’s not just a hotfix will take a while to come out

[worn field]

what im trying to say is, if we needed to get an update before each new traveling spirit, then we would have gotten more frequent updates

i think the time when people got a different spirit due to not updating was a special case

[rocky solar]

Did you not notice the updates before the traveling spirits came?(at least two days before the teaser)

[empty river]

those dont always happen tho

[rocky solar]

New update is needed to change the existing files of traveling spirits...

If not the old one will pop on the day new one is suppose to pop ourltt

[lusty light]

But if there is no update then there wouldn’t be a problem with people having different spirits show up

[empty river]

the one spirit that popped out because some didnt update was never a traveling spirit either

[lusty light]

Having an update around the time a spirit shows up is what’s causing the problem

[rocky solar]

Yeah, so they implemented mandatory updates

[worn field]

im looking at the patch-notes history, and the updates don't seem to all have been freqent enough for there to be an update before every traveling spirit
(http://bit.ly/sky-patchnotes)

[rocky solar]

I have been looking at it as well

[lusty light]

The reason why the spirit appeared wrong for other people is because people were on different versions, of there is no different version to be on there wouldn’t be a situation where a different spirit appears

[vapid briar]

changes to traveling spirits don't require a patch, so that throws your theory entirely out the window.

[rocky solar]

Alright thanks for clarification ktjn, I always thought that there needs to be an update for traveling spirits to be changed

[random gull]

Aren't the traveling spirits every other week during the season? Since came right before the season, it makes sense to have a week off before a new TS. I don't think it was delayed so much as it really was meant to be every other week during season

[rocky solar]

Yeah I checked back to all the dates for patches lol, the third traveling spirit didn't even need a patch or hotfix lol...

[flat willow]

Oh now im curious

!ts

[gilded parrot]

The next Traveling Spirit is scheduled to arrive on July 23 at 00:00 Pacific Time (UTC -7:00)
You can read how Traveling Spirits work here: http://bit.ly/TravelingSpirits

[flat willow]

Next week! :0

Im so broke... Im not gonna make it 👀 💦

[tiny umbra]

If you start today(I make a schedule for each ts) and get 15 candles a day you’ll have 150 by the time the ts leaves

[slim kayak]

The app icons for both sky apps suddenly poofed off my phone

I still have them downloaded, but I have to go through Google play to access them which is weird

So uninstalling didn't fix it

[near garden]

I feel so dead

I forgot to claim my candles yesterday do i couldn't get the manta cape by the end of season

[tiny umbra]

Update

[novel aspen]

Yes

[copper bison]

what's the update?

[empty inlet]

Content Updates

• Sanctuary quest polish, fixes, and additions including the final quest cutscene and improved manta interactivity
• Improvements and Bug Fixes
• Resolved stretching in screenshots and video recordings
• Fixed graphical artifacts on waterfalls and around the level
• Fixed several map holes and clipping issues
• Fixed a Spanish translation typo
• Adjusted short bob round and undercut hairstyles to resolve clipping issues
• Graphics, networking, and performance optimizations
• Implemented seasons backwards compatibility (might mean incorrect UI icons or other effects)

[kindred bluff]

gimmie that cutscene update video baybeee

[eager torrent]

what does the last one mean

i mean like what do they mean by 'seasons backwards capability'

[empty inlet]

Inb4, when they're adding a new season, they have to remove most contents references from the previous season

[wind gust]

still no hearts for the manta cape?

[empty inlet]

no, check #beta-announcements for more info about this issue

so sometimes bugs like visual error for the Adventure Pass Pre-order or incorrect season tutorial page could happen, hopefully not anymore

I can be wrong

[spark lance]

Let me go after I finish the test. Ok?

[bright portal]

anyone recorded the updated final cutscene?

[spring cloak]

@bright portal I did! https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/618891214527266846/733910500022157362

[hidden quarry]

woohoo, update!

[vast mortar]

I'm still waiting for the quests in live to exprience it fully with my friend , just finished the season in beta tho so feedback time!

[visual vigil]

Did they change minimum requirements to play beta? It's saying my device isn't compatible

[vapid briar]

nope it's a know google bug, lemme grab the trouble shooting steps

[wide grail]

what does the seasons backwards compatibility mean.

[vapid briar]

ideally, it means less bugs during the off-season time when transitioning between the season that just ended and the season that's just beginning. It's more for the dev team, but we wanted to let you all know that it may make some things look wonky for a little while.

[thick ridge]

Finally the hair is fixed

[visual vigil]

I restarted my device and it backed to normal

[wide grail]

i see, that's great thanks ktjn!

[thick ridge]

The Google Play Store has troubles with app management just need little restart to fix it

[visual vigil]

I was scared omg

[olive tide]

Just to confirm from earlier messages, a recording of the new cutscene will be available for us to watch for feedback?

[vapid briar]

oh good! if it ever happens again, you can find the troubleshooting steps here: https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/696838813506470013/697998766627881062

[vapid briar]

Yeah, I'm waiting on the recording, it's a little late and the weekend so forgive the delay

Weren’t the clipping issues a result of the new pants rather then the hair?

I still prefer this to the old lighting bug tho

I'll report it later. Imma do some more bug hunting first 🐱

ah yes
i suffer with the "anything from tgc download past 20%" bug
@slow yacht are u on Android

[slow yacht]

yeah

[proper helm]

yeah
@slow yacht hmm.. it shows 20% but its still downloading.... Just open the notification drop down bar.. you will see files downloading

[autumn geode]

hope I got enough time to clear the daily quests... after updating

[slow yacht]

n ope

it thinks 20% is the max

[autumn geode]

29% atm

[proper helm]

it thinks 20% is the max
@slow yacht have you seen something like downloading additional files in the drop down notification palette?

[slow yacht]

no it literally just thinks 20% is the max

[mild scaffold]

Guys where can I watch the new cutscene....🙄 I have done the quest already 😭

[real flame]

I also want to know

[mild snow]

Hi has anyone on iOS experienced their beta app going into ‘cleaning...’, rendering the app inopenable? I can’t seem to update the app on TestFlight either 😦
i posted w screenshot in the beta screenshot thread, I’ll try to link to the message down below.

Well my live sky kid at least

[broken wedge]

Ahiru no sora

[ionic sorrel]

us getting 69 candle for 4 day is possible?

[rough rampart]

I'm a rubber duck!

[hollow compass]

UbER, I don't know. Isn't it around 16 candles a day while a season is running? 4x16=64?

[dusky jolt]

Bai bai double hearts

[hollow compass]

aw, that went away now? oh, well

[rare birch]

Once beta season is over,, candles go brrrr

[hollow compass]

The season ends in 4 days, I believe. We were talking about the double hearts that were still active since...ages ago?

[bright portal]

i think it's 17-18 candles now in season since sanctuary gives ~2 candles

[crimson bridge]

do you know where is the last bell? I cant find it

[hollow compass]

at the very top, try to hitch a ride with the manta

[proper helm]

They removed double hearts?

[hollow compass]

It wasn't supposed to be there in the first place.

[tight field]

I just got on and wait what there was a double heart?

[hollow compass]

Yes, it was a leftover from when the actual double heart event was ongoing and never got removed in beta since we started the season. Only disappeared with the patch just now.

[tight field]

Oh i read that wrong

I thought there was a double heart somewhere

Like a literall double heart hahaha

[ionic sorrel]

UbER, I don't know. Isn't it around 16 candles a day while a season is running? 4x16=64?
@hollow compass aww man :(

[hollow compass]

Maybe you can get slightly more now with Sanctuary's candle cakes?

[ionic sorrel]

i mean seasonal candle,,is it possible to gey 69 s.candle in 4 days?

[short gale]

The latest announcement in #beta-known-issues said that a video would be posted of the new cutscene, has that happened yet? And if so, where can I see the recording?

chat is rather dead rn isn't it

[proper pawn]

quiet..

[short gale]

Oop I found a vid so that's good

Does this mean that I can't see sanctuary in it's "final form" until it comes to the live version?

[open spindle]

We can get 18 candles a day including sanctuary now

[hollow compass]

i mean seasonal candle,,is it possible to gey 69 s.candle in 4 days?
@ionic sorrel No, it's only 4 days left and we only get 11 each day = 44 seasonal candles.

[spark lance]

The kid is a coordinator hunted by the creatures because he can let them get the one in a live time $$$

[tough pebble]

If ya collected the seasonal candles after you got all cosmetics early you have a high advantage of getting more candles

The kid is a coordinator hunted by the creatures because he can let them get the one in a live time $$$
Sorry what?

[spark lance]

But that kid got krilled straight to eden so. Maybe in the future you may find it again.

[tough pebble]

Uhhh

Or never.

Anyone here know when the android started its alpha stage or time when it become playable on android?

[hollow compass]

I believe it was in April.

[late nymph]

Ohhh so around gratitude?

Lightseekers rather

[worn field]

android sky launched globally in april 2020 (just before season of enchantment)
if you're wondering about when android sky-beta started, i believe that was sometime in september 2019

[late nymph]

Ohhh thats good to know. Thanks!

[amber umbra]

Hey everyone! I‘m sorry if this has been asked already, I just woke up and my brain is not up to the task of searching quite yet.

Does anyone know what this means, from the most recent beta update? „Implemented seasons backwards compatibility (might mean incorrect UI icons or other effects)“

[dry pivot]

@amber umbra here's answer from Ktjn https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/583370574449999880/733919860807041045

[fair current]

why i still cant update

i have beta ummm

but just cant update

saying my device wasn't supported anymore

and i reported this too but nothing happened

[warm badger]

You get a photo op with the sanctuary guys in the final cutscene 🥺🥺

[honest void]

I thought ktjn was teaching "the spirits on the hill aren't displayed correctly".

[warm badger]

Do we get to keep the whale this time?

[lofty lantern]

Guys did tgc recorded the final cutscene

[slim kayak]

I can post my recording of it if you want

[spark lance]

Actually I recorded the final cutscence. It's beautiful

[tough pebble]

Nice

[spark lance]

Thank you very much I appreciate it.

[lofty lantern]

@slim kayak please

Dm me

[amber umbra]

@dry pivot thank you so so much

[austere merlin]

What does ktjn mean by “cutscene backwards compatibility”?

[spark lance]

cutscence downward compatibility

[toxic oasis]

The cutscene work properly. The problem is after. What is supposed to be shown is not. There’s a manta stock in the sea, other visual bugs around and that’s it hehe 😂

[uncut relic]

I recorded the final cutscene ! OMG it's so beautiful 😭

can I get the cutscene again if I go back to Eden? I saw many great people names there omgomg

[spark lance]

Yeah if you go to Eden and you go through it again it’ll do the cutscene again.

[blazing sail]

Again and again and again

...and again

[toxic oasis]

Yeah if you go to Eden and you go through it again it’ll do the cutscene again.
@spark lance really? .-.

[shadow hemlock]

Hey guys, because they do not remove portals from some places? we know that we have to farm every day so we always have to light a portal and always have to put up with cut scenes including those in the valley, and in Campina, they really suck and take a lot of time .

[minor robin]

some of those cutscenes actually hide loading screens to help with map transitions. If you were to oob out of valley gate before lighting the white candles, the lighting of the race is very different and has no shards.

[analog citrus]

I (and a few others I’ve talked to) no longer get a discord ping when there is a beta update even tho i reacted to the faq. Worked fine before but for the last few updates I got nothing. Anybody else having that problem?

[dusky spoke]

I have that problem with discord in general i do not get ANY notifications, pings or even dms

I have ofc already checked everything in discord and in my settings

Even battery optimisation i have turned on for discord and turned on auto start for discord still no luck

So now i just gave up and obsessively check discord fot updates

[thick lion]

Anyone seeing a wierd flickering of the light graphics I wasteland? Like anything that is glowing flashing
Like I just videoed live vs beta, it's only in beta. Both games graphics are the same tier (no lighting bars in settings) but in beta candles, the fire and my own cape flickers like a candle in the wind. I am wondering if it's intentional or not before reporting it

It's also ONLY in wasteland

[hollow compass]

Are you on Android or iOS? I can go have a look later. I am on iPhone X.

[thick lion]

Android

At first I thought it was intentional, to make the fire pit and lanterns in social place be blowing in the wind, but my cape did it when I landed in the actual area

[tender oasis]

I’m in wasteland now (ios) and i can’t see anything different so far. No flickering here.

[hollow compass]

What happens if you do the classic restart?

[thick lion]

Still doing it

I'll drop a gif in screenshots

[hollow compass]

Do you mean the way the light sort of hops to one side? Because I do see the lights flickering, but that's more like a natural movement of a candle.

Yours looks more like a rendering issue, perhaps caused by low graphics setting.

[thick lion]

It doesn't do it in live tho

I have the same settings in both games

AND it did it on 60fps

[hollow compass]

That is odd. Perhaps file a report nevertheless?

[thick lion]

Yep

[restive tusk]

Convite beta

?

[random gull]

not sure what you're asking

[restive tusk]

Invite beta?

[lyric kite]

Beta access won't be wiped and new invites sent out until probably close to when the season ends in live (in about 2 months from now)

[random gull]

in #beta-faq you can sign up to get a notification when the invites go out again

[restive tusk]

Tank you

[cobalt hare]

@thick lion I've already reported it

There was one issue before that was fixed, so I think they're going down the line and still hammering out Android Graphics bugs

If you remember the purple water, that was fixed. They also fixed the bug where lights were producing square shapes on things.

So I think they just need more time

[spark lance]

I have a quick question about the beta!

I heard that theres a translation thing being added, and I was wondering if anyone knows roughly when that'll be put into Live? Just wanted to know how long I'll have to wait for it as a lot of people I meet ingame I can't understand due to language barriers ^.^

[kindred bluff]

ill bet you guys the little surprise in the anniversary box is a sticker page

i doubt they'd go as far as to make a plushie for everyone or something along those lines, but keychains are possible

[worn field]

PreyBoi, we don't have an ETA for when a translation feature will go to live. hopefully it can be ready sooner rather than later

[copper bison]

the translation feature in beta is currently being tested. as for when it'll come out,

When It's Ready™️
Not Yet™️
In The Near Future™️
Not Today™️
Eventually™️
Patience™️
Not Right Now™️
Once It's Done™️
Who knows™️
Maybe Tommorow™️
When TGC Decides To™️
When the Devs are Ready™️

And of course,

Soon™️

yeah, we don't know ->-

[worn field]

in the mean-time, i try to make the most of emotes and honking to communicate with other players to overcome language barriers

[kindred bluff]

We Dont Know ™️

[spark lance]

Rip, okay. I'm excited lmao, every single person that have happened to come sit on a bench with me has started speaking another language out of the blue and its like
Cri

[kindred bluff]

i wanted to show my chinese or korean friend that brought me into office for the first time the little frozen pizza but you dont understand how hard it is to communicate "pizza in the fridge sit on table pls" with honks

[naive mica]

Were the bells in prairie changed to silver or should i report is a bug?

[kindred bluff]

if youre talking about the bells at the bell tower area it isnt a bug

[naive mica]

Okay thanks

[kindred bluff]

if youre talking about the bells in sanctuary yes it might

[naive mica]

I was talking talking about the bell towers but thank youu

[kindred fossil]

the bells were changed to be silver so it would be consistent with the bell tower at sanctuary, silver indicates that the bell is inactive

it's more apparent if you watch the cutscene: https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/618891214527266846/728858464004341813

[cobalt hare]

That's what I thought too dark, but check beta screenshots and I'll show you something confusing.

[kindred fossil]

that's been there awhile, dunno what its deal

[kindred bluff]

its in the live version too! there is a minor visual glitch where the transitional webbing effect shows when the bell isnt active on the rightmost island but other than that i think there isn't anything wrong with em

[kindred bluff]

did anyone release the video of the new final bell cutscene?

nvm just saw it
crying

we finally get,,, big boy

WAIT THEY ALL LEAVE NOO

i wanted them to fly around

[random gull]

Found a moth and taking them through forest and we both keep crashing when we go to sunny forest. Anyone else having this issue? Gonna report but thought it was odd

[kindred bluff]

ill try it out rn!

[copper bison]

in beta? i'll try it out.

[kindred bluff]

nope not happening to me! i have an iPad 6th generation

[fresh oyster]

I wonder when will they gonna put the capeless in live version

And i hope its not 999 hearts

[empty river]

probably in about never™️

[fresh oyster]

Why never

[kindred bluff]

try losing all your stars and dying bro, same thing

(pls dont take that offensively i dont have any idea how to word it)

[fresh oyster]

So whats the point of putting the capeless in beta

[empty river]

It's meant to be a silly item and prohibitively expensive, which is why there was a 99 Ascended Candle lock tied to it as well as the 999 Heart cost. Not having a cape and being able to fly is immersion breaking and exposes some of the rigging wonkiness of the skykid character model. For the time being, it is only a beta easter egg.
from pins. "For the time being" has been months by now

cos its a joke :v

[kindred bluff]

its a joke, its not easy to buy or in live as it shows the "bones" or armature of the character and wonkiness easily

[eager warren]

!whatsnewinbeta

[gilded parrot]

Bug fixes and improvements

[spark lance]

Yeap

[spark lance]

Can you ride the whale

[wary star]

its a joke, its not easy to buy or in live as it shows the "bones" or armature of the character and wonkiness easily
@kindred bluff

capeless glitch

[kindred bluff]

yeah ik lol, its not gonna be a purchasable "item" is what i mean

[rocky solar]

i tried to ride the whale once, but somehow my cape turned white when i got close to it

[olive tide]

Oooh I guess whale doesn’t want to be ridden 👀

[quiet moon]

Question, with the “You and I pin” in the shop, does that mean my friend can have the same cape with me ?

[hollow compass]

We don't know more than what is on the website. Beta is not privvy not any other information that what is already there.

And also, please don't post the same question in multiple channels. Try to pick the one that is most on topic.

[kindred bluff]

man, i wish i knew what those pins did

[kindred fossil]

@eager warren this is a joke command, is there anything you want to know? 👀

[opal wren]

Wowu

[spark lance]

[trim kernel]

Hiiii when does season of sanctuary end in beta? 😁

[lunar talon]

[lyric kite]

Talking to the quest giver says 3 days left (then plus the rest of today). So I believe it will end on the Thursday reset, unless it gets extended for some reason (probably won't be though)

[trim kernel]

So if let’s say I finished my run today and I have 17 candles, and I need a total of 48 candles to complete the constellation, I still have enough time to get the manta cape?

[spark lance]

Season of sanctuary ends in 3 days in beta

[lyric kite]

If you get all 11 candles for the last 3 days of the season, you would have a total of 50 by the end (counting the 17 you already have now)

So yes, it's technically possible, but you wouldn't be able to miss anything if you wanted to do that

[trim kernel]

I’m so relieved to hear this! I was about to give up 😭 Thank you so much! 🤗🤗🤗

[glacial dirge]

...I've accepted by now that Google will never refresh the beta for me 😟

[silent lily]

Can someone share the link of the last bell cutscene??

[spark lance]

I will get the manta cape soon!

[mortal cosmos]

Anybody a gratitude veteran?!
I like to draw spirits and stuff and I never have any good refs for the cosmetics?! Could anybody help me out,,? 🥺 thamk u

[warm olive]

i played during gratitude but i didnt collect all the cosmetics for it :,))

[lunar zealot]

Twirl spirit's fangirl: currently no one has gratitude cosmetics in beta, because there was a progress wipe right before the game went global a year ago (which means all cosmetics was taken away, including gratitude ones). You have better luck finding the help you need for the cosmetics, in for example #general-sky-discussion

[mortal cosmos]

Oh right! Ah!

[hollow compass]

@mortal cosmos I can probably help you with photos from my Live account. Just DM me.

[austere merlin]

Wait really? Including the bull/dragon mask?

[turbid mantle]

Hii

I kind of love spoilers, do you guys know what spirit is coming?

[lilac timber]

!betalive

[gilded parrot]

Beta and Live versions of Sky are completely separate apps. Progress/purchases in one have no effect on progress/purchases in another.

Traveling spirits appear in the beta version at the same time as live, so we don’t know any details in advance Check #news for announcements and save up your candles!

[lament moss]

Hello, i saw my fren share a screenshot of invisible cape in beta, and it needs 99ascended. Is that real? Im not a beta tester.. i'm in live. I want to know if the item really exist so i wanna save as much ascended as i can if the cape ever come to live ver.

[tough pebble]

Yep

[unique haven]

wooooot????

[tough pebble]

It's real it needs 99 ac candles and 999 hearts to unlock, but it's only in beta

[lament moss]

... 999hearts????

[unique haven]

??????!!!!!

[rustic imp]

The invisible cape has been in beta for months. Ktjn already said it’s a joke item. It may never come to live for a variety of reasons

[lament moss]

I suddenly feel like something died in me

[tough pebble]

Dw there's a lot of ways to go capeless in live

[lament moss]

Anyway, thank you.. that cape was awesome tho.. to be able to still fly without cape

Thanks guys..

[tough pebble]

Np

[dusky spoke]

Just to confirm did anyone have problem updating beta this time?

[olive tide]

I personally didn’t, but I heard some other people got stuck at 20% or something

[proper helm]

Where is the new video? Season end?

[south owl]

Hey guys I am missing some wing light in golden Wasteland in live version, anyone got any ideas ? I tried question and help but I got no replies

[velvet eagle]

Do you mean by krill? If so, you have to go find the wing light again after being krilled. Other than that? There are guided and charts online to help you find winged lights.

It takes some time to get a reply in questions and help, though. You can always ask again there!

[hollow compass]

This isn't really the place to ask about Live things. 😉

[lunar talon]

Y guys play beta?

[hidden quarry]

i mean, this is the beta channel 😳

[copper bison]

There are some live visitors sometimes but most of us are in beta.

[rough rampart]

I think some people are waiting for an access wipe or invitation a few months later.

[eager torrent]

in that case, yall gota wait another month or two ✌️

[vast mortar]

I waited since I created my discord account, which was 4-5 months ago i think

The flow is very calm.

It seems that there was a problem that the Season Heart could not be exchanged for Ultimate Gift during the test.

[wicked harness]

can anyone estimate when beta invites will open up again?

[real flame]

What do you think of the new animation that unlocked the final animation before? Many creatures on the island have disappeared due to the final animation change

[quick oriole]

@wicked harness 2-3 months

Beta waves happen right before a new season goes into testing which is usually around 1-2 weeks after the current live season has ended

[wicked harness]

@quick oriole thanks!

[spark lance]

[rough rampart]

[tough pebble]

When the chat is dead

No more beta stuff to talk about

I tried to get the little hat today, is it not available in Beta.

[wide ledge]

do you guys think the sheperds mode will be coming to live anytime soon

[silent lily]

Where can I see the updated 6th bell cutscene????

[wild shore]

I can only see that in Live version.

[silent lily]

Gotta wait for 5 weeks😬

[wild shore]

i just need a pass from a friend. But..

[hollow compass]

@wide ledge I hope not, but that’s not for us to decide.

[wild shore]

I better go working. Bye.

[rough rampart]

Oh sorry. Some people like to be quiet.

[wild shore]

what if seasonal candles and hearts remain not converted, just buy the pass?

For the next season?

Reduce the grind.

[flat willow]

It also reduces the grind for normal candles and hearts tho

With what i have left from the season no pass, i usually have enough for about 1 travelling spirit

I just got my first season pass, we'll see how much leftover i get 👀

[wild shore]

👀 some of them are busy in rl

[wild shore]

👀 shepards are important for the moths right?

[toxic oasis]

Guys did someone notice that the manta summoned by the second quest in live instead of flying around the manta statue they fly around the island? But they tend to disappear inside the main mountain so you don’t really see them. I don’t remember was like this in live. Or I’m confused?

[hollow compass]

I haven’t done the bell quest in Live yet, but I’ll keep that in mind and see what it looks like. Thanks for the heads-up!

[ionic sorrel]

when the next season started?

[pulsar edge]

After this one ends 🤯

[kindred fossil]

are you asking about the next season or season of sanctuary?

[ionic sorrel]

the

[kindred fossil]

it'll be approximately 2-3 months until a new season is announced, for now you can focus on the current season, supposedly

[toxic plank]

[sage sparrow]

Well now that this season is still going strong. I hope the next season will be spooky

[rapid sedge]

krill season 👀

[sage sparrow]

yessssss

That would be fantastic and a nice change of pace

[random gull]

I want a spoopy season 👻

[small pebble]

Krill mask?

[spark lance]

Idk if that's in-topic, but I found no space for beta questions, just curious, do ts in beta arrive before than live or nah?

[small pebble]

They arrive the same day as in Live ^^^

[spark lance]

Oh kk, tysm man, lmao I failed to spoil myself the spirt

[random gull]

they usually put the teaser in #news on Tuesday or Wednesday before the spirit arrives! so we'll find out soon

[blazing sail]

Did you know you can lose all your light just missing a landing in Sanctuary? 🙃

[open lava]

I think thats possible if you already ran out of light and then bump into something

[untold oxide]

yeah

also going down the slide is ouch

[analog citrus]

and those cranky cave crabs. This "Sanctuary" can be dangerous to sky health

[hollow compass]

I saw someone bump into a floating island when they used a geyser. Ouch!

[tender oasis]

I bumped into the edge of the geyser and whent white 😂 those things are hardddd.

[open lava]

When Sanctuary first here, there were more crabs at the cave iirc. I got 6 wedges and almost lost a wl

You can't download beta? If you're on Android, it seems that Google is being mean and isn't fixing whatever the issue is. Unfortunately there's not much that anyone can do

There's always next season

[lilac oak]

Is || office || considered spoilers in this section?

[copper bison]

nope

[lilac oak]

Kk

[copper bison]

office isn't a spoiler in beta chats because most of us know what office is and it has the spoiler warning labeled on the category anyways.

[lilac oak]

Anybody know anything about the spear wielding spirit in the office yesterday?

Sent a pic in #beta-screenshots-videos

[copper bison]

that's the cat spirit. i don't really know a lot about the office spirits ->-

[lilac oak]

Ah

Also I signed up for beta back in june and it still won't let me install it

[copper bison]

ios or android and are you sure you made it into the testing program?

[lilac oak]

Yes

It told me I was in and I may have to wait a little while
I even tried entering again and it said "You're already in the beta program"

But it never let me install

[ionic sorrel]

it'll be approximately 2-3 months until a new season is announced, for now you can focus on the current season, supposedly
@kindred fossil i cant focus :) i cant find any bug anymore,and i got bummer coz i dont get manta cape :(

Oof sry lol

#beta-discussion whenever I press"x" it makes the complete quest noise instead of the press noise

[worn field]

the thing where you hear the 'complete quest' noise every time you tap the "X" is a persistent bug, it seems to happen whenever there's a "Light 20 candles" quest
if you have a little time, reporting it to TGC would help the bug get fixed you can do that by following the instructions in #beta-bugs-ios or #beta-bugs-android

[lilac grove]

Will there be some cape spells or musical instrument spells in the Ark shop?

[lyric kite]

Right now, there are no cape or instrument spells that exist in the game, so no I guess

[lilac grove]

thx

[olive tide]

That would be interesting. There’s an instant recharge spell which gives you all your wedges back. I’m not sure what a different cape or instrument spell would do.

[lyric kite]

I guess maybe let you wear a certain cape or play a certain instrument temporarily or something like that. It would probably only be useful if you didn't already own the items themselves though, or I guess the instrument one might be useful if you want to carry another back item as well

How many hours is left until season ends?

If my calculation is correct, I think there are 42 hours and 30 minutes left（beta）

[near garden]

@honest void thanks

[topaz nebula]

What is better 🤔 sky or journey??

[worn field]

i'm not sure if either is better than the other, or just very good in different ways...
anyhow, that seems more like a question for #other-tgc-games

[topaz nebula]

Naw

[dense pike]

that s up to you to decide, both were created with lots of love and passion and countless hours were spent in development. arguably, both have their highlights and are both really well built games, so neither one is really better than the other. either way, they were both created to teach compassion and help bring people together so keep that in mind
maybe asking in #other-tgc-games for more opinions

[topaz nebula]

Cool story bro

[quick basin]

what's new in beta?

[gilded parrot]

Bug fixes and improvements

[small pebble]

Yes, I really love the stories behind the games, and seeing what the developers went through really made me just want to appreciate it more. I love all that they do, and I cannot wait to see what happens in future updates

[tough pebble]

Welp season is almost ending in beta

I don't even care on getting the remaining seasonal candles, all I do care is how I'm excited to join next beta wave

[gilded parrot]

@tough pebble, to join future beta invite waves, watch for announcements in #beta-signup-info! You can learn all about the beta version and the sign-up process in #beta-faq.

Have we had a season end without incident in beta?

Always the candle conversion thing...

[tough pebble]

Ikr

[quaint onyx]

OOH! I hope this time we'll have to see the ending cutscene = to the amount of times we bought the pass

For those people who bought 1000s of passes

[kindred fossil]

...yay

[inner pilot]

Was compensation given for the bug that prevented you from purchasing the ultimate gifts? I had the bug happen to me but I just now noticed I have 3 extra seasonal hearts

[worn field]

last we heard from TGC, there were no plans to give compensation for people who lost seasonal hearts in beta, since it didn't really affect testing, according to #beta-known-issues

[inner pilot]

Somehow I got 3 season hearts. I’m not sure how they got there

if you have a little time, it's worth submitting a bug report, so TGC can see if anything wonky's happening

It’s ok to submit one even if it doesn’t have many details? I didn’t get a screenshot of it either sorry

[worn field]

that's completely ok!

actually,,,i just checked and i've recieved the handpan in beta 👀

jill you sure you bought and used all the hearts from the spirits?

I purchased the hand pan before the bug was patched so I lost 3 hearts and didn’t get hand pan, then bought 3 more to get the hand pan after

and then you received 3 more hearts? strange

i also purchased the "null" item before the ultimates were implemented

anyone else?
