beta-discussion

[oak berry]

would we just forget the storyline

[thin shell]

sky kids forgets how to fly when you enter the area
sky kids speaking instead of honking

[worn trail]

Peace out and ba bye

[limber tusk]

season of sneep snorp

[kind hawk]

hmmmmm season of dream?

[late mountain]

nice to see everyone having some last day discussion on beta before the wipe. Lets be honest though, most of us will be back here to discuss beta even if we don't get in

[tall yacht]

I wonder if skybot is actually the hidden prophet

[fathom river]

ahhh yeah. it's the season where this chat descend into chaos

[slim kayak]

just realized that android finally got the latest update. google why you take so long

[limber tusk]

[oak berry]

i almost want to go in the next season blind, but i think i would lurk in beta chat anyway

[slim kayak]

once in beta, always in beta

[vale dirge]

HAS THE ACCESS WIPE STARTED YET

[oak berry]

when you fall under the world while on one last prairie run

[slim kayak]

#beta-announcements give this a read please

[vale dirge]

I FORGOT TO LINK MY ACCOUNT IS IT TOO LATE

[limber tusk]

its not too late, check beta updates

[vale dirge]

How many hours left?

[late mountain]

You have one day left ^^

[oak berry]

it happens tomorrow, check #beta-announcements

[limber tusk]

im not sure, all they said was tomorrow, please check beta updates before asking

[slim kayak]

You will still be able to access the latest build (157537) until a future update is released
from #beta-announcements. when the wipe happens, you can still play until they push an update

[vale dirge]

I did read- I'm just asking how many hours left

[limber tusk]

we dont know

[toxic spruce]

~~It’s already 24th for me 🌚 timeszones are messed up ~~

[slim kayak]

they never specified a time. so at some point tomorrow.

[limber tusk]

its almost the 25th here lmaooooo, and its usually in their time

[slim kayak]

ktjn has to go in and manually remove all 16k testers. one by one. so it'll take her a few hours, much like last time

[tall yacht]

Hopefully the last motd before access wipes will be something like sneep snorp

[late mountain]

I believe you'll still have time to link your account until the next update but best not to wait and just link it now

[foggy aurora]

Can't wait for the countless " I can't download beta" when the invites are out lol

[slim kayak]

because only beta updates was pinged, those who only have the invite ping role don't know what's to come
less lurkers, but more chaos?

[toxic spruce]

And the poor android ppl counting how many days have it been T^T cries for them

[late mountain]

Everyone here will have to shift to cosy for some respite (and non beta discussion) while this channel is on lockdown.

[slim kayak]

flashbacks to read only beta chat

[oak berry]

sanctuary beta wave

[toxic spruce]

30min slowmode

[tall yacht]

temporary-cozy-beta-general-discussion

[rustic hearth]

Its that time of the month again eh.. the invite chaos is fast approaching.

[slim kayak]

for anyone who might be staying through the invite wave chaos: feel free to take a break from answering repetitive questions if you need to. you are most likely going to get tired if you try to stay and help the whole time. i know i did the first time

[fathom river]

i will be staying like last time. starting now. Hi guys please read #beta-faq . haha. we can do it you guys

[silent lily]

Was there a new update today?

[slim kayak]

our favorite channel: #beta-faq followed closely by #beta-announcements

[late mountain]

Can we get a #beta-faq reaction emote? Need one of you nitro pros to get on that

[silent lily]

Lmao, beta chat will go brrrrrr in the coming week

[slim kayak]

someone made one a while back already, and posted it in #beta-screenshots-videos

[vale dirge]

Ok I linked-

[slim kayak]

#beta-screenshots-videos message
here it is!

[analog citrus]

wonder if this means we will get to see what the new TS system is like between seasons OR maybe we get preorder during the TS this weekend

[silent lily]

Why do i think that the new Season might be just 2(1 to 3) weeks away now?

[kindred fossil]

will this happened sooner than i thought

[silent lily]

Everything is happening sooner than i thought tho

[ocean monolith]

how i be beta in ios?

[silent lily]

Beta faq

[kindred fossil]

#beta-faq will give you instructions

[fathom river]

hope next season will be like a way to forget what happened this year

[kindred fossil]

time to get on my funny hat and crack bad jokes in the midst of chaos

[fathom river]

dark already started haha

[silent lily]

I expect next Season to be a bit relaxed, but not as much as Sanctuary, and a little lore, the amount of lore enchatement had was manageable so that much
Anyways not keeping my hopes up that high, cause i like being amused

[rain delta]

Omgggg wasn’t expecting it to happen so soon just saw the updates ;-; good luck guys

[slim kayak]

time to start giving out instructions with hearts at the end of them to let our new friends know i mean well

[late mountain]

Ooh, thank you. We need that emote

[spark lance]

Can I ask how long does the Beta Invite last from your experience last season? I'm new to beta program as well at discord, so some talk still confuses me

[marble fox]

Are we gonna have a new ts system?
Like:
-items needing current pass
-expensive as hell

• different spirit tree?

[rain delta]

They last 5 minutes each wave I think

[silent lily]

Imagine how cool it would be if new Season comes out on January 1 right at the start of a fresh year

[odd field]

a whole season

[silent lily]

Just 2 more days of wait, and We'll see

[rain knoll]

Omg could there be a new season

[slim kayak]

it depends on the season. this time we had about 3 months? sometimes its a bit longer or shorter depending on the need. if you mean invite links, then a few minutes to an hour

[odd field]

5 minutes each wave? no

[rustic imp]

There's a lot of info about how TGC does beta in #beta-faq! good read on background info

[woeful urchin]

Oh god chaos time

[fathom river]

haha yes guys, there will be a new season

[primal pagoda]

[silent lily]

@rain knoll yes there will be a new season, but not immediately, probably still 1 to 3 weeks away from coming in beta (just speculation)

[rain knoll]

Omg there will be a new season Holy krill

[stark cloud]

Ahhh here we go again

[thorny fulcrum]

Oh lawd access wipe time

[civic nest]

Ah yes the time has come again

[slim kayak]

xynth, you took my strategy

[surreal night]

Here we go fam

[rain delta]

It was fun beta testing with you guys, not sure if I’ll get in next time >< but good luck guys

[vocal crater]

And to think that yesterday I was making jokes about the arrivals in beta and the fact that this Channel was the absolute nothingness under discussion-

[signal sleet]

I finally got a new phone so I should actually be able to beta test this time

[willow garnet]

it was fun, goodluck everyone!!
🥺

[silent lily]

so far loving the fact that there aren't leaks this time for the season

[rustic imp]

yes things will be crazy for a bit. Please remember to take breaks and step back if things get tiring, things will settle soon after

[signal sleet]

I felt bad since I was actually in the last wave but my phone just ran out of space

[surreal night]

Feels like this season just started crazy 20 days and it's over

[wispy zinc]

does this mean a new season is coming out already in beta?

[odd field]

another reminder that beta is not to be downloaded for fun. we have responsibilities to improve the gaming experience and do our our best as testers

not just to access new content

[fast flare]

Season begins after the new invite wave ended

[surreal night]

Even after invite wave it was still a week or two before the season hit on beta

[autumn lance]

It's almost surreal

[rain delta]

In all honesty, I think this channel was very active throughout the season >< is it just me thinking that?

[deft belfry]

beta wipe? pls im still yet to even be able to download betasky 😫

[spark lance]

so the time have come, we will have to leave soon

[gaunt prism]

dreams

[silent lily]

I hope nothing peeks out before it's supposed to be,♥️

[slim kayak]

no, i noticed that too. way more people stuck around after the season this time around

[silent lily]

Propehcy was a great season! That's why we couldn't stop talking about it.

[spark lance]

i dont want to out xD i still need next season spoiler

aight one last beta period before uni krills me

[sullen relic]

I hope we have a meditate quest soon — think I’ll leave behind my discord username on a message so my nameless friends can find me if I don’t catch them online

[slim kayak]

beta gen turned into beta lore a lot

[vocal crater]

Please do not give false information, if there is a new season we do not know all ""info"" of new season are acctualy not legit also pls don't download beta only to have "" early access"" to the next new things. Thanks y'all

[odd field]

please stop with the mindset of if i get beta i can get new season quick. thats misleading the true objective of a tester

[onyx summit]

I hope I’m able to get in next time, this was so much fun bug hunting and talking to y’all

[silent lily]

Yeah, that shouldn't be the mindset, but i strongly belive it still is like that for half of the people 🙁 😕

[slim kayak]

good luck to everyone during the waves! I hope to see you in the skies soon! if i get back in

[copper bison]

i've pretty much made up my mind. i'm not rejoining this wave. don't get me wrong, i love testing. i love helping out. i just don't think google's gonna let me out of limbo, and the ios device i use has no storage and isn't compatible with testflight (too old.) i'll still be here in chat, just not rejoining. i hope the person that takes my spot enjoys testing as much as i do and reports tons of bugs and has fun. and i hope y'all that want to get in do. good luck

[wispy zinc]

i'm just shocked that there's no leaks or anything about the possible new season, and already announcing a beta restart usually it would be a new season coming up if a beta restart has been announced, or at least that's what i think i haven't been able to keep track of Sky during this month so i feel like i've missed a year worth of information

[dapper nova]

I am excited

[spark lance]

Hope I get back in. This will be my last time beta testing for probably 2021 and I want something to mark the start of my university journey with

[odd field]

15 minutes slowmodes last wave

[slim kayak]

thanks for being here kai. sad to see you go

[undone pendant]

is invite roudns coming soon? 0-0 lmao kinda just wanted to know what u guys think tho

[rain delta]

Sighhh, let’s not alienate people tho... I mean this happened last time too, but I just don’t think there’s any point to messages like “most people are joining just for the new season sneakpeak...” I mean in all honesty, all your sky youtubers are joining for that reason - so they have content for YouTube...
So maybe, let’s change the conversation to instead have “it doesn’t matter why you’re joining, I hope you guys all stick around for testing”

[silent lily]

The first invite wave during sanctuary was the most chaotic scene i have ever seen, Everyone was spamming and even in the reacts

[odd field]

the topic already changed

[copper bison]

i don't wanna leave. but i really don't have a choice, i'd just take up a slot for someone who can and really does want to test.

[slim kayak]

that was when the android chat died, and this chat became read only for a bit to calm people down

[spark lance]

Oh man I’m nervous already i hope I can get in, it’s really fun to be here testing and all of that

[cedar holly]

My phone is an iPhone 6s, is it too old for beta testing? Also about how much space does it take up? (:0

[rain delta]

Mika, I meant anytime this issue with new beta testers and beta waves comes.. there’s no point saying ‘they’re only joining for new season sneak peak .’ I meant let’s change that wording to something else... because I mean testing new content is why people join to begin with...

[odd field]

change the topic pls

[stark cloud]

I rarely to give report bugs..but i always keep send beta feedback..am i a good beta tester?

[small swift]

beta chat is active again

[spark lance]

I have an iPhone 6s Plus and works just fine

[silent lily]

What i mean is most people see the season and leave, so i hope they actually stick around to test

[rigid field]

Now as a former beta tester. I'm giving up my spot for someone else to test.

[slim kayak]

you need about 1 gb of space, and it needs to be able to run regular sky

[dapper nova]

Does beta need a powerful phone? Or if it can run live than you don't have to worry for beta?

[silent lily]

Consider it to be another sky on your phone, usually is of equal size, not much different

[tropic radish]

Huh, guess I updated just in time

[deft geyser]

Beta iz active again

[copper bison]

i believe testflight needs at least ios 13 but not sure, not an ios player >_>

[slim kayak]

it's basically like redownloading sky on your phone. but you are more likely to crash

[rain delta]

By the way when tomorrow will the access be removed or does it not matter? Until a new update comes anyways

[stark cloud]

Welp..if i can get another chance, i will keep sending feedback..

[sullen relic]

@cedar holly iPhone 6 is currently on the compatibility list, but I imagine it can’t run on high graphics settings

[odd field]

im reconsidering to not to take beta. if i do congrats to whoever who manages to get in

lurking here is my leisure time activity

[tranquil coral]

So new season gonna start?

[spark lance]

Im super glad to meet u y’all hope we all get in

[copper bison]

it'll start When It's Ready™️

[deft geyser]

So new season gonna start?
@tranquil coral

In beta the season will start prolly a few days

[tranquil coral]

Yes that's what I'm asking

[slim kayak]

You will still be able to access the latest build (157537) until a future update is released
from #beta-announcements. when the wipe happens, you can still play until they push an update. also, ktjn has to manually remove every tester, which might take hours.

[woeful lodge]

Awesomely put. Whatever and whoever y’all join, just make sure you put in some time leaving constructive feedback and helping report back on iterations.

[tranquil coral]

New wave is for season right

[tropic radish]

Oh my, kudos to Ktjn
I thought it's automated

[woeful lodge]

Probably, but who knows how long the wave will last.

[slim kayak]

yes, but it usually takes a few days/weeks before a season is introduced to us for testing. the gap is there to let our new friends catch up a bit first

[rain delta]

For prophecy I think we waited almost 1.5 weeks I think, before the season was released...

[cedar holly]

Does anyone know the exact number of beta players? If not, a good estimate?

[thin shell]

After access wipe?

[slim kayak]

16,000 testers this time around

[rain delta]

@thin shell after All the invites were sent out and all beta players joined

[cedar holly]

Holy moly-

[thin shell]

So when the inv waves are done?

[odd field]

testing prophecy was a good experience

[slim kayak]

at the end of this round, about 100 android testers were active out of about 8,000 according to game launcher

[rain delta]

A lot of them couldn’t even download the beta app to begin with ;-;, I’m sure most just gave up

[kindred fossil]

we were never given an exact time of access wipes, it doesn't matter as much since invite waves happen at a later date

[deft geyser]

Yes bcuz there's a lot of player are joining in

[oak berry]

many were lost in google purgatory

[tropic radish]

Well, android testers are a bit unfortunate, considering how Google Play store is so-

[deft geyser]

Luckily I got beta tester in first wave while my wifi is sooo slowww

[slim kayak]

google should have fixed the issue now though

[odd field]

did they count android players who have problem with google's slow update syndrome i remember that happened to me for almost 2 weeks when prophecy started in beta

[rain delta]

To be fair @kindred fossil , last time we were told 11am Pacific haha XD but yea it doesn’t really matter, cause you have access until the next update anyways

[tropic radish]

should

[past copper]

May I ask will the chat room give us notif when they release the test links?

[slim kayak]

game launcher only keeps a record of who plays a day

[odd field]

you need to have the role to be able to get a ping

[deft geyser]

But hey, some of them are able to access beta without beta invite

[latent oar]

Adding to that: For samsung devices which enabled data collecting option only*

[slim kayak]

head on over to #beta-faq and give it a read! there you can learn how to opt in for notifications

[kindred fossil]

oh right, i forgot!
i mostly think because people stood up until late hours expecting the invite waves to happen as soon as the access wipe

[gilded parrot]

@odd field please don't discuss or encourage the use of APKs. Downloading illegitimate copies of the game is against the Terms of Service and could contain malware. Trying to use APKs will result in download problems and may result in account data loss and inability to contact TGC support. APKs cannot be used to bypass the device incompatibility.

[past copper]

may I ask who TAT sorry I am new to discord

[odd field]

im sorry

[rain delta]

I feel for ktjin...she’s got some long sleepless nights ahead... and man with thanksgiving coming up too

[limber tusk]

@past copper scroll up in #beta-faq and react to the message there

[slim kayak]

give #beta-faq a read and learn how to opt in for notifications!

[past copper]

thanks

[lilac oak]

Uh oh

Sooner than I expected 🤔

[potent pumice]

I’m excited

[slim kayak]

agreed, it's way earlier than the other wipes. wonder what tgc has in store for us to give us so much time to test

[copper bison]

google has tons of problems. google is slow on pushing out updates, has the 'app not compatible' even though it is issue sometimes, and also sometimes decides to trap skykids in limbo (should be fixed, but here i am.) there might be some more stuff, but that's the ones i have on the top of my head.

sending the message 5 minutes late cause hard to type on fat tablet

[odd field]

aight im gonna remove my beta role after reconsidering (and the fact that i just realized i have a midterm exam in a month) i'll give up on the spot this time have fun to future testers c yaaa

[rain delta]

I feel like this time they haven’t announced the new season teaser either.. I think it’s cause of all the leaks from last time...

[rugged pivot]

Whoa. In coming new invites.

[worn trail]

Does the number of available slots for beta testing increase every season?

[latent oar]

Ooh it's happening before TS's arrival! What a surprise :o
anyways it's exciting to see beta being active again

[slim kayak]

testflight has a hard cap of 10,000 testers. so they can't really increase it even if they wanted to. but who knows?

[limber tusk]

guys remember when we had like 10-30 min cooldown?- i hope it isnt as intense this time bjefnkrgbjnefjbv

[worn trail]

Well maybe they can increase Android testers

[oak berry]

I bet tgc is gonna wait to release the teaser, when was the last one again?

[past copper]

I rmb the 5 min cooldown hahahahhaa

[slim kayak]

before the first wipe, android had about 25,000 testers for stress testing. they've lowered it to match ios since

[spark lance]

For the new beta testers who is on android, good luck with the google play

[rain knoll]

I'm so excited

[deft geyser]

For the new beta testers who is on android, good luck with the google play
@spark lance

I'll pray for them

[rain delta]

Ususlly the teaser comes (from previous teaser release dates) 10 days before the season ends in live

[rain knoll]

Google know not to mess with me

[slim kayak]

i'm setting google's alarm clock to the right time, don't tell them

[rain delta]

The funny thing is how the next three months are going to fly by super fast too >< and before you know the next season will end too 😵😵😵

[simple girder]

There’s been s o many hackers in beta lately... 2/3 people I’ve been meeting are hackers... Is tgc gonna do something about it when I asked the hackers they were like “nah it’s beta they’re not gonna ban us”
Reporting doesn’t seem to work either

[deft geyser]

If the beta invite release, this server will go flood soon

[rain knoll]

Ima sneek into Google and say i wanna be beta tester and then let everyone have access on time

[worn trail]

If I get 3 reacts I will try my best to not spoil myslef till it comes in live 😂
Edit: guess I have no options
Edit 2: what the.. I have to wait for two seasons now
Edit 3:
Edit 4: you are about to be reborn

[copper bison]

if any of y'all get trapped in limbo with me, i'll make us all cup of (insert amazing beverage name) so we can chill until google frees us.

[rain knoll]

Yesss

[oak berry]

ah yes pineapple pizza, my favorite beverage

[fathom river]

i might not get a grilfriend this year. I hope I can get in beta again for the year end season

[deft geyser]

If google play messing with me again I'll go raid their company

[spark lance]

The wait so i can download the app
Just

[latent oar]

grillfriend (beta)

[spark lance]

Is the cooldown back ? Oh my 😂

[worn trail]

Is this general chat already?

[copper bison]

i mean, i'm sure i could turn that into a beverage somehow
"hey kai pass the blender!"
"which one?"

[worn trail]

The krill blender

[odd field]

if im not gonna be a tester for the next season am i still allowed to lurk in here?

[slim kayak]

i think kai was referring to all of the kais on the server

ok, back to beta!

[maiden cairn]

I haven’t test the iOS Sky beta version yet

[deft geyser]

Don't spam or we'll taste the hellish cooldown again

[latent oar]

Ok so back to topic (?)
We still have time to check new TS changes even there's an access wipe on App Store right?

[gleaming yacht]

so let me ask: we're supposed to test the changes on the ts (adventure pass items etc.) on 26th of November, but we'll only have access to this build, in which the changes aren't yet applied? :D ||what||

[slim kayak]

yes saki, assuming that they don't push an update before thrusday

[oak berry]

oh wait the ts

[deft geyser]

Speaking of TS

[latent oar]

Hurray! Ty
and highfive acorn

[gleaming yacht]

couldn't they have just waited a few more days

~~what does the high-five mean in this case 👁️ ~~

[rain delta]

This time honestly the beta waves might be spread out across several days considering thanksgivings coming up too... honestly I think it’s going to reduce camping out that way

[spark lance]

When you're in an access wipe you can still access the next build buuuuuut
Even when there's an update can you still play the current build without updating ?

[slim kayak]

invite wave during thanksgiving dinner

[stark cloud]

Good timing..

[rain delta]

Or the waves could come after 😂 hopefully after haha

[primal pagoda]

maybe the changes about TS is not ready to test yet that’s why they plan to remove access wile before that

[minor falcon]

iirc the ts changes are in this build but only show in the next ts

[worn trail]

What does it mean when people say rhythm ended abruptly?

[copper bison]

after the access wipe means you can't update beta unless you rejoin. if you don't rejoin, you can play until force update. if you rejoin, you get update permissions back.

[slim kayak]

it lasted 12 days, and then the season was gone. no one could finish it

[gleaming yacht]

the thing is, we'll not receive any more updates by tomorrow, and if the update comes after the access wipe, we're just not eligible to update! fkdkfjdlkf how do they expect us to test

[noble wigeon]

does anybody have it yet I want to try this time...i haven't got one yet.

[kindred fossil]

yes, you can avoid updating until they force the "there's a new update!" screen, now's your access gone for sure

[worn trail]

Why did that happen?

[tropic radish]

Wasn't the TS update mentioned in previous patch notes ?
If that's the case, we can still test the new TS tree

[slim kayak]

they didn't need to test rhythm in full, so it was cut short

[gleaming yacht]

oh now I understand I thought they were about to release the update when the ts would come (misinterpretation of the post) thanks for clarifying!

[minor falcon]

only time will tell of they push an update mid invites week

[rain delta]

random, but how are you guys getting golden emotes? i only see this

[slim kayak]

its from an external server

[kindred fossil]

from a different sky server, nitro

[copper bison]

the golden emotes are from external servers
aeras fast 🏎️

[maiden cairn]

e

[gleaming yacht]

yeah it's nitro I'm not in the golden emote server so I only have these

[worn trail]

Can I get that server link in dm?

[maiden cairn]

Mine is from NastyMold sky server

[broken void]

The beta has reset and they'll send out new waves?

[deft geyser]

Yes..but not today but tomorrow.. correct me if I'm wrong

[slim kayak]

your progress won't reset. but everyone will lose access tomorrow (you can still play until it updates)

[broken void]

Ohhh I see...

[quick oriole]

Access hasn’t been wiped yet. It’ll happen tomorrow, and they’ll send out new invites soon afterwards. They won’t inform us beforehand of when they’ll release the new invites however, as to not cause chaos

[latent oar]

We have no clue when beta invite wave starts exactly, pretty much all we can do is to get the ping role and keep an eye on it

[slim kayak]

and wipes won't happen all at once. it takes hours to manually remove every tester
probably why there isn't a mentioned time in #beta-announcements

[deft geyser]

They randomly release the beta invite

[broken void]

The ping role is acquired by the blue cape emote ,right?

[worn trail]

Was invite camping a thing before?

[slim kayak]

yes. a lot. people were getting really rude about it too, so much so that this chat turned into 30 min slowmode and read only once

[honest locust]

Does anyone know what should i do if i want the discord to remain me when the invite waves come???

[quick oriole]

Yes but it also sucked and led to people flexing about how many hours of sleep they missed so it’s very strongly discouraged

[worn trail]

So that's why it's random?

[rustic imp]

@honest locust theres info in #beta-faq about how to get notified! you will want the beta invites role.

[worn trail]

I remeber how people were flexing how late they stayed up before Prophecy begun. Cmon guys health is No.1

[copper bison]

progress wipes vs. access wipes
•progress wipes means you lose all your progress, meaning you start from scratch completely. there will most likely be a heads up about one of it occurs.
•access wipes means you lose the ability to update beta, but can still play until the game forces you to update. to regain the ability to update, you must rejoin by invite wave.
again late message, fat tablet, hard to type with

[rustic imp]

yes. please don't stay up for beta invites, and please don't encourage them.

[slim kayak]

beta is like, the regular game but it crashes every 5 min sometimes

[honest locust]

Thx!!!

[spark lance]

Now i'm a beta official player. So do i need to invite again?

[latent oar]

Literally everyone

[copper bison]

once the access wipe happens, yes. you'll need to rejoin by invite wave. this is so everyone has a chance to participate in testing.

[past copper]

may I ask why my friend doesn't have to rejoin since she enter in march TAT

[shy urchin]

How do I get chance for beta

[deft geyser]

#beta-faq

[random coral]

Check #beta-faq for information on beta

[slim kayak]

#beta-faq gives you info on how to join!

[copper bison]

#beta-faq is a good read!

[spark lance]

I told y’all that the times of read #beta-faq were coming

[vocal crater]

[latent oar]

There'll be only more and more same questions in next few days coughs

[quick oriole]

I’ll make a shirt that says READ THE BETA FAQ and most people won’t know what it means but a few thousand out there in the world will-

[whole helm]

woah, this time is earlier than the previous access wipe?

[past copper]

just copy and paste whenever people ask qoeifoqienf

[whole helm]

Time to turn on discord notification again

[kindred fossil]

it's okay, you don't have to answer the repetitive questions all the time, that too can get taxing as much as those who stay up late watching the invite channel

[hollow compass]

I'll buy that t-shirt.

[misty jungle]

Sound illegal tho......

[copper bison]

lmao i have discord desktop notifs for beta-gen on all messages. i don't plan on turning it off either.
this is gonna be fun.

[quick oriole]

Oooof....

[still socket]

when will the invites ?

[past copper]

oh.....I didn't know....

[copper bison]

Soon™️

[kindred fossil]

at a later date per the announcement, surely not soon after the access wipe

[deft geyser]

when will the invites ?
@still socket

Tomorrow

[vocal crater]

We don't know.

[desert mango]

Good morning 🤍
When I went to sleep double hearts was not a thing in beta , now I have some people that are persistent on telling me their is now .., plz can someone tell me what the truth is because I don’t know anymore

[still socket]

tomorrow means wipe
how about the invites ..

[slim kayak]

No double hearts as far as i saw. Got a single heart from a friend

[kindred fossil]

invites are not happening tomorrow, the date of invite wave is never known

[past copper]

no one knows

[quick oriole]

#beta-discussion message

[still socket]

may be after wipe
I guess so
like 2p.m China time last invite

[copper bison]

well, the truth is we don't know when invite waves are. i just like saying Soon™️

[spark lance]

Same when I received one heart I was like oh man

Is it convenient for players who have grabbed it to say the possible time point?

[slim kayak]

All invites are random. Please remember to not stay up late for them

[past copper]

they make invite in different times for people for different timezones so we never know

[quick oriole]

Rickel they haven’t really followed any particular pattern of release so it wouldn’t really be helpful

[vocal crater]

the double heart even is quite complicated to set up it requires a whole team of engineers to avoid its possible bug. so normal if it's not in beta

[spark lance]

OK

[gilded talon]

omg I wake up on 400 new messages in beta gen chat I give up on back reading

[small swift]

at least beta chat isn't dead anymore

[slim kayak]

Most of it is just: #beta-faq

[maiden cairn]

Me almost 3pm. Today 24 November before the wipe

[gilded talon]

I love this chaotic energy tho

[whole helm]

Yeah, this is so lively

[runic path]

I'm ready to see a 5 min slow mode in beta gen

[copper bison]

yeah, your real life needs are more important than beta. so don't stay up too late. the sneep police are watching from the sidelines

[bleak hemlock]

ooohhh its time for new beta invite will we see another chaos

[slim kayak]

5 min? Thats nothing. 30 min!

[quick oriole]

6 hours

[whole helm]

When ppl replying in emojis instead of typing
That's
Beta gen spirit

[vocal crater]

Lmao one day we got 30mins bc beta players were mean .

[bleak hemlock]

I will sell popcorn when the invite start, who knows will i get a good profit 👁️👄👁️

[slim kayak]

One time this chat became read only because people were being rude

[past copper]

Oh my

[small swift]

I hope that doesn't happen this test round

[hollow compass]

I have a feeling those weren't beta players, but the people who missed invites...

[slim kayak]

It was surprisingly better last wave. Way better than the first one at least

[worn trail]

Rude? Because they didn't get into beta?

[vocal crater]

No beta players. Bc there was a big bug with the pro' season

[small swift]

true

[astral coyote]

ohhh so excited

[rain latch]

We'll get pinged when they do each wave though right

[rustic imp]

yes beta invites role will be pinged. be sure you have that role so you get the notification

[copper bison]

as long as you have the beta invite ping role, yes. you'll get pinged.

[slim kayak]

No, because there weren't invite links right after access wipes, so they stayed up for nothing

[hollow compass]

Ah, that one! The floor is lava bug! 😄 Yes, but there was a very long slowmode during the invite waves also, because people were being rude.

[tranquil coral]

Do u guys think the we're getting hoodies this time

[bleak hemlock]

well, time to practice to answer in emoji again, beta peeps, just for... caution

[worn trail]

Why tho? They worked so hard and they get just rude people you didn't get beta instantly? We can improve

[vocal crater]

Ya ! Anyway ppl where mean and rude it was sad to see
Then we all take our 30mins to say happy 1st anniversary of beta bug or something

[kindred fossil]

we took turns saying happy birthday to someone

[spark lance]

I remember that

[whole helm]

I wonder if they're still here

[worn trail]

Imagine staying up all night to get into beta and then getting a rickroll instead of invite link😂

[jovial herald]

I hope there aren’t as many rude people as there was last time, and in any case there is then it’s best to treat them with kindness rather than rudeness
And besides the beta is temporary, but the live version is forever comrades

[slim kayak]

Always be kind to everyone on the server. Its in the #rules !

[worn trail]

Speaking of rickroll 🤪

[copper bison]

"oh hey, finally. invite link is ou-"
"never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down-"

[rain latch]

Okay this may sound like a stupid question but if this is your first time as a beta tester and you want to return for the upcoming season to test, do I need to have beta invite ping role or beta updates ping role? Tia ☺️

[quick oriole]

You aren’t required to have them, they’re only for notifications tbh

[slim kayak]

Beta invite. But get both to be up to date on info when you do get in and start testing

[rain latch]

Yes but If I want to be notified so I don't miss them I mean

[worn trail]

After sacrificing in eden I want to hear Never gonna give you up, Never gonna let you down

[quick oriole]

Then yes, you’ll need the invites ping role at least

[jovial herald]

That wasn’t a stupid question also if you want notified for the beta invite wave do the beta invite ping role

[rain latch]

Thank you 💓

[jovial herald]

I wonder what the new season is gonna be

[spark lance]

also when the invites come we just have to click on the link if it was our first time or...? (I read beta faq don’t kill me but I didn’t understand about rejoined)

[tender oasis]

Season of invite waves

[slim kayak]

Click your respective link to rejoin

[quick oriole]

All you have to do is tap the link and if there’s a slot open you’re in and it’ll direct you on how to download, if it’s full, you’ll just see a message saying it’s full

[rustic imp]

I'm fairly sure there's some more detailed info somewhere about how to join, but yes you need to click the link to join.

[desert mango]

Well it seems beta has double hearts... peoples are showing proof and I can’t test cause I got to wait till reset

[whole helm]

Something related to winter festival i guess-
I'd love to have Forest in snow instead of rain

[steady pond]

woooooo im guessing invites are possibly next week or the week after, enjoy the break from beta everyone

[copper bison]

snowy forest would be cool

[solar rune]

I hope I get in beta this time, ben playing sky for 7 months and didn't even get in beta once.

[jovial herald]

Ooooo I’d love to have the ice rink back at home too

[rustic imp]

If it's your first time joining or third, you still will need to click the link to access beta updates

[small swift]

sky beta is basically sky live but with much more bugs and crashing

[spark lance]

I've been here for a year

[noble wigeon]

me tooooooo

[astral coyote]

So the invitation will not be released immediately, will it?

[solar rune]

OOOOOOOOOOOO
Good! @spark lance

[copper bison]

sky beta is like sky live but it's so lonely to where if you want to open a door it could take hours

[solar rune]

🤣

[rain latch]

And less people

[whole helm]

Also it will be really interesting if the new season following the storyline

[gilded parrot]

beware the ||||

[spark lance]

The past 21 ST is the first anniversary of my sky encounter

[quick oriole]

shew shew or shoo

[spark lance]

oh god skybot.. HIDE....

[whole helm]

skybot: beware the krill
my brain: beware the shrimp.

[spark lance]

that’s why i bought chibi, I don’t have to wait for people to open doors

[small swift]

can't wait for the invites to roll out and half of the chat is skybot telling people to check #beta-faq

[timid basalt]

and table

[copper bison]

yeah, investing in chibi mask or table is a good idea, doors won't be much of a problem then. except for 8 player door candles.

[worn trail]

I have an idea for a future season ultimate. Something like a bag pack to carry 2 things at like: table&piano, fireworks &table? Because I like helping new players and guiding them. Can we please get this for testing in beta? Thanks for reading 🙂

[slim kayak]

Just realized I missed my beta anniversary by a week. Have i really been here that long?

[spark lance]

The pain of any beta player...the 8th door

[copper bison]

would be a good idea to post that in #wishlist-and-ideas-archived

[worn trail]

Already did before

[past copper]

season of dream.....it will be cool if we have something dreamy uwu

[worn trail]

I always want table with me but I like fireworks and other instruments too

[copper bison]

happy belated beta anniversary

[slim kayak]

Then the devs have probably seen it! Of course, not every idea will make the cut, due to limitations on their engine or them not fitting with their vision of sky. But its good to give them many ideas to work with!

[untold oxide]

beta anniversary pog

[spark lance]

[worn trail]

Could someone do the favour of putting it in #wishlist-and-ideas-archived 🙂 you get the idea. So explain it there hehe

[untold oxide]

can't you jsut copy paste the message? /nm

[worn trail]

Or maybe it could be like the lvl2 capes. Not counted towards the constellation but available in the base game

[worn trail]

I did it before. Well someone could add more to my idea or make it better. Giving freedom of choice hehe

[spark lance]

if you’ve submitted the idea already, please don’t repeatedly spam it. sharing your idea once is already enough to allow the developers to see it

[untold oxide]

also editing messages is a thing so if you need to add things you can do that

[worn trail]

That was months before
It was before Prophecy I suggested this

[slim kayak]

The devs read everything in there, and in the feedback channels. So if you've put it in there once, no need to do it again cause they've seen it!

[odd field]

don't mind me, just lurking here to see whats up

[worn trail]

I was like we need something to carry our stuff. A proper explaination does wonders!

[spice mason]

And once again, the beta general channel shall descend into chaos..

[lyric knoll]

will any invites be sent over 5pm BST

[vivid fiber]

Oh woah waoh new invites :0. Shame. I wouldn’t be able to join since i quit due to school and much stress. Gl you guys

[spice mason]

Invites are sent manually. So we don't know when there will be invite waves. I'd say just keep an eye out, and don't sacrifice your health for this.

[worldly niche]

wait sky beta is going to have a invite wave soon? (srry im a live player)

[lyric knoll]

uhh but will there be invites over 5pm BST

[desert mango]

People will get ping , keep a ear out too .can rest more that way

[spice mason]

We don't know, Quinoa.

[stark wadi]

is there any update or plan related to make the translation chat to be live?

[slim kayak]

We haven't had any info on when that goes live

[lyric knoll]

@spice mason oh ok sry I'm just nervous about it cause I have school and I dont want to miss my chance lol

[rustic imp]

for the past invite cycles, Ktjn has tried to send invite waves around the clock, so there will be a few at everyone's waking hours.

[dapper nova]

Also I saw someone mention that Ktjn will remove the access for all players by themselves
Is it manual for all at once or are they doing one by one for all current beta players?
ahah I'm bad at explaining this-

[dense whale]

/it would suck if it's manual

[kindred fossil]

it is manual, last time she said it took around 6 hours to make sure all access was reset

[dapper nova]

Oh gosh, is she the only one doing it? Why is no other staff helping?
God if I was tasked to do that I'd take forever

[slim kayak]

Tgc has a staff of under 40 people. There just aren't enough people to leave development to help out with invites. Everyone has other responsibilities to take care of

[dapper nova]

Dang, bless Ktjn 😔

[dense whale]

/oh my someone please send her a hug for me once she cames back

[dapper nova]

Me too!

[storm vessel]

Double hearts is on now

[hexed quail]

good morning fellow beta players

[spice mason]

... god. You know what I'm looking forward to with the next beta cycle?

Which spirit will have a BIG HEAD.

In sanctuary it was the jellyfish whisperer. With this season it was the questgiver,, who shall carry the tradition,,,

[copper bison]

i'm excited for the bugs

[spice mason]

I'm also holding out hope the new season will be in either valley or vault... they need new areas so badly tbh

[runic path]

I'm afraid that my internet connection break when invite come. So I use gen chat as a heartbeat tester

[kindred fossil]

winter season in valley pleeeeeease

[slim kayak]

Omg kai love your pfp

[dense whale]

/very important

[spice mason]

Kai is a genius... wwww

I want comfy winter cosmetics... in general.....I a GH HHH.....

[copper bison]

it's a placeholder, i was going to draw my skykid holding up a sign that read "pls read #beta-faq" but i got lazy cause fat tablet extremely slow and laggy so i'm going to do it tomorrow on my phone

[spice mason]

I also hope we get the ice rink in home. I never got to experience it before so...

[short trench]

🤔🤔

[spice mason]

cries in Enchantment moff

[copper bison]

also cries in enchantment moff

[dense whale]

/"head pats enchantment moffs including myself"

[slim kayak]

Am I an enchantment moth if I started live then? I dont even know what kind of moth I am anymore

[whole helm]

hug everyone bc im moff too

[dense whale]

/moff at heart then Aeras!

[copper bison]

we're all buff moffs

[tender oasis]

Aeras did android got an update too today?

[slim kayak]

Belonging/enchantment moth then

Yeah, the latest build too pakka

[tender oasis]

Google hates me

[spice mason]

Home with an ice rink sounds so fun hoogh.

[slim kayak]

It might still be rolling out. Hopefully you'll see the update before your access is revoked

[sage rampart]

Hello wanna ask is it the beta invite will likely come out today ?
Since I saw many friends talking about that 🤔

[simple bobcat]

No, it will be at a later date, as stipulated in #beta-announcements

[dense whale]

/im so bloody ready for invites

[uncut wharf]

guess who gonna be camping the beta invites channel 👀

[civic nest]

No don’t

[dense whale]

/you can just get the role tho?

[uncut wharf]

i was..

[tender oasis]

Please no camping. There are more waves, and if you get the ping its more than enough.

[slim kayak]

Please don't stay up for invites. It takes hours to even remove testers first. Nothing is gonna happen in the next several hours

[uncut wharf]

it was a joke .-.

[dense whale]

/camping is only okay if you do it with friends, a stolen crab in forest. otherwise no camping!!!!

[dense whale]

/it's okay,, we were just wary. since people do camp

[spark lance]

Hello. From now on we will no longer receive beta updates until we have new invitations, right?

[slim kayak]

Jokes are kinda hard to convey through text only. We are just concerned becuase people have risked their health for invites in the past, so we don't want that to happen

[spark lance]

after tomorrow, it will be the case yes! you will still be able to open beta until the send a new version

[slim kayak]

Time for me to sneep snorp. Goodnight everyone!

[cloud oar]

[spark lance]

Thank u

[copper bison]

yeah, people have stayed up extremely late for just the invite waves and it's not good for their health.

have a nice sneep!

[cloud oar]

camping in the invites channel

[fathom river]

ready your campfires

[dense whale]

/for crabs!

[fathom river]

*ready for floor is lava part 2

[dense whale]

/nobody camp unless it's crabs

[cloud oar]

Usually when is the qualification issued?

[dense whale]

/what floor is lava? where was p1????

[spark lance]

we can't tell, it's unique everytime. last time it was a day after @cloud oar

[cloud oar]

It's afternoon where I live.

[simple bobcat]

Floor is lava was a bug where when you opened your game it would crash if you didn't fly into a realm straight away

[copper bison]

we don't know when invites come out.

floor is lava was a bug where if you touched the ground in homespace the prophecy cutscene started and once you reached the part where questgiver walked into the portal, the game crashed.

[cloud oar]

Besides, I'm not very good at English.

[dense whale]

/may i have vids???

[kind hawk]

I heard some msg about new season

[dense whale]

/they are fake, hacked or fanmade

[kind hawk]

well,thanks😂

[simple bobcat]

I didn't take any sorry jen my screen recorder crashes a lot when I play sky with it on so it's a pain to take any

[spice mason]

It's best not to discuss any content you may have found, ^^" because that might have been obtained through means other than.. TGC actually giving us this stuff.

[cloud oar]

I hope my translator will not be wrong.

[dense whale]

/ah. aww man imagine the pure stress tho

[copper bison]

around here was around the time floor is lava existed. you can scroll up or down to see what it looked like. #beta-screenshots-videos message

I'm looking forward to it.

[spice mason]

We don't know anything about the new season yet. :v

[dense whale]

/it is a fanmade season, friend

[fickle vapor]

me too

[copper bison]

season of dreams is a fanmade season and is not canon. we don't know anything about the season yet.

[dense whale]

/season is fake, made by nastymold!

[copper bison]

it's best not to trust anything that isn't posted by tgc because it can potentially be incorrect or just a rumor

[dense whale]

/if he has inside information, then he is hacking, and that is not okay as well

[crystal fractal]

let’s please drop the topic, it’s against the #rules to discuss what could be hacks and spread misinformation. this is the official server so things said here need to be legitimate

[fickle vapor]

that's great

[cloud oar]

I Don't know Anything. All I know is what he said.

[spice mason]

Even so you probably shouldn't talk about it here. ^^"

[cunning cradle]

Are you all waiting to qualify?🙈

[dense whale]

/yepppp

[cloud oar]

Oh，OK

[crystal fractal]

/cooking mah crabs and waiting for invites

[copper bison]

i'm not gonna rejoin beta this time around, google has me trapped in limbo
i'd just take up a slot for someone who really does want to help out and test

[wide pike]

Can't get your beta access wiped if Google never gave it to you in the first place

[spiral osprey]

[simple bobcat]

Kai, i was trapped in limbo for the whole of sanctuary too... however tried this time around and after doing the troubleshooting steps again a couple more times i was able to download the game for prophecy

[red ore]

When will the quota be issued

[silent lily]

I'm so so happy that we really don't know stuff about the season this time 😌 ✨

[simple bobcat]

At a later date, we don't know when exactly

[cloud oar]

I hope TGC can add some new hair styles in the new season.

[oak pivot]

[lost fable]

Try to wait

[real glacier]

i hpp have ne cap

[copper bison]

i have no idea what happened, one day google just stopped letting me update cause 'app not compatible' even though it was and the troubleshooting steps didn't work anymore >_>

refrain from emote spam please, thank you

[silent lily]

I think we need more instruments and accessories and pants, already have enough masks and capes and hairs, imo

[oak pivot]

Funny emoji!

[simple bobcat]

Oh kai

[cloud oar]

I also hope TGC will add some new instruments

[real glacier]

all know around what time open qualify ya?

[silent lily]

And 15 key instruments , especially

[simple bobcat]

At a later date, we don't know when exactly

[dense whale]

/black keys please!

[copper bison]

we don't know when invite waves come, just have the notification role and you'll get notified when they happen.

[cloud oar]

Hope TGC adds some shorts.

[silent lily]

Spirit sandals!

[dense whale]

/i want a door!

[cloud oar]

Hope TGC adds some shorts.Even though it's winter. Ha ha ha.

[silent lily]

[dense whale]

/as a cosmetic. like door on your back. like you place it down and your friends walk through it

[silent lily]

And?

[dense whale]

/idk i just want a door-

[copper bison]

i think a skykid carrying a door on their back would be interesting

[dense whale]

/ah and then you get charged!, by walking in and out several times!

[cloud oar]

Have you ever heard of a season "the season of Migration"?It is a season created by a Chinese player

[dense whale]

/heading to wishlist chat,,,,,

Time to splurge candlesss🤩🤩🤩

[simple bobcat]

Not that I have friends for that in beta except star

[spice mason]

I'm gonna be honest I'll always want more capes.

Especially LONG capes like the red gratitude one or the rhythm light blue one.

[cloud oar]

Oh, my God, when will the qualifications start to be issued? I can't wait.

[wintry vine]

I can’t wait to get new reason

[copper bison]

we don't know, they come at random times. just have the notification role and you'll get pinged. they'll do multiple waves for different timezones so don't really be worried about missing one.

learn something new everyday.. 😔

[copper bison]

sure you can, though i won't be able to accept it until the ts arrives, can only play every once in a while >_>

Hey! That's cool and good.

[tacit pebble]

Gosh, I'm not very good at English. It's hard for me to understand you.

[desert mango]

To everyone ,
I just want to say Thank you the lovely peoples on here that I shared beta experience with ...if it be chatting on beta discussion or a friend of mine in game .
I enjoyed it and wanted to thank all the beta testers for all their hard work to make sky in live better for all of us ... 🤍😘🤍
See you all again if I manage to get back in .

[worn trail]

The way people say it gives me survival type of vibes

If I make it 😂

How to say this in English? ↓↓↓↓

[wintry vine]

Aiiiii

[silent lily]

I'm not saying goodbye yet
I am determined, i will get in i hope

[worn trail]

Is the wipe done?

[lost fable]

Shrimp

[desert mango]

Good luck awesome friend , iam happy to meet you on this channel and to of become sky friends too 🤍

[young thistle]

[copper bison]

that's a dark dragon, though most people call it a krill shrimp

[silent lily]

You pronounce it as "dane- jer"

[desert mango]

Not yet tomorrow the wipe bro

[lost fable]

Chinese players will also call shrimp 👀

[steady pond]

jp calls them shrimp too, sometimes even "shrimp-chan" (ebi-chan) 🦐

[oak pivot]

🦐🦐🦐🦐🤣

[worn trail]

Ah yes Samuel been a wonderful journey to play with you in sky. Looking forward to more fun and good days ahead
Edit: mods gonna

[cloud oar]

iSee

The Chinese also call it shrimp, Pi Pi shrimp.

[oak pivot]

ahhhhhhh

[lost fable]

Yayaya!

[cloud oar]

Because it's so similar.

[lost fable]

I think it looks like seared shrimp

[steady pond]

sorry for being off topic lol @ mods

but i love the language differences in what they call new players.
english have moth, japanese call them sparrows, chinese call them newbies (as far as im aware) lol

[cloud oar]

They call them Mengxin in China.

[copper bison]

yeah, let's keep the topic on beta. this is #beta-discussion after all

[steady pond]

yup, mengxin is newbie in english :3
anyway lets try to keep this more beta... we could always move to #general-sky-discussion , try to avoid emoji spam on this channel too

[cloud oar]

I hope the new map will also have shrimp, and you?

What does "spam" mean?

[silent lily]

Repeatedly messaging the same thing again and again (can be an emoji, a reaction, or a text or symbol)

[cloud oar]

Sorry I'm not very good at English

[worn trail]

Spam can also mean unwanted stuff

[steady pond]

its okay! its the effort that counts. ♡

[cloud oar]

Sending Emoji repeatedly is a popular trend in China. I don't really understand why avoid it.

[silent lily]

Imagine a shrimp in valley

[worn trail]

In isle

Newbies with 1 star

[copper bison]

the reason why we don't do that here is because the emojis in discord can turn big if you just type emojis and can fill up the chat really quick

[silent lily]

Can i dm you? i can type the answer in chinese in the DM (using translation)🌚

[cloud oar]

shrimp in valley！I like it !

[worn trail]

Back to beta now

[copper bison]

yeah, beta chat gets off topic real fast

[steady pond]

it's polite chatroom etiquette, this channel is meant for discussion and not spam.
spam makes it hard for chat to be read.

since the official staff is also more prone to reading this channel, it's best to avoid emoji spam!

when beta is off season the chat really just goes off the rails a lot quicker lols

[cloud oar]

Oh my god, my translator can't work.

[tacit stone]

Omg this season is ending soon n next one is already coming in a few weeks

[steady pond]

for translators i recommend using this ^^
||https://www.deepl.com/en/translator||

i wonder if this season will be winter themed too? if we get more fluffy capes im not complaining. or a scarf..

[cloud oar]

me too

[agile comet]

I‘m wondering am I the only one cannot login with my Facebook account iOS beta?

[desert mango]

From the beauty of the photos blep showed me of umberella... I just purchased a real life lightseekers umberella 😱😱. I can’t wait to receive and rock my umberella down the street

It rains a lot here too ..I think I won’t actually use it but hang it on the wall

Or put in cabinet to view through glass

[cloud oar]

Can Sky Beta use the star pin? Why can't I use it?Do any of you know why?

[desert mango]

Beta was to test the spells ... it makes sense that only live can use the pins ...but I don’t know if they are meant to work in beta too ... you could ask in game ... when my pins turn up which will be the next 2 days I will get back to you it9c

[stark cloud]

Pins only works with iOS only..am i right?

[cloud oar]

My name is actually LT9C, not it9c.

[storm vessel]

Pins supposed to work on phones

[cloud oar]

I'm too lazy to capitalize, so L looks like i

[storm vessel]

Turn on your phone NFC capability

[cloud oar]

Maybe it really doesn't work in beta?My NFC is on.

[dapper halo]

Oh, God, I don't have NFC

[hasty vessel]

does anyone know why we aren’t allowed to fully unfriend people in sky yet? what if we really don’t want to do anything with another player again, don’t want to see their name don’t want to rename them, why can’t we have them completely wiped from our constellation?

i sort of feel like this should have already been implemented ages ago?

[storm vessel]

In the FAQ on the website it says that it should work in beta.

[cloud oar]

But my pin doesn't work in beta，My friend's, too.

[storm vessel]

One live, one chinese, one beta it says

not sure if you can only choose one of them. Is your live and beta using the same account?

[cloud oar]

I only play in beta.

[silent lily]

I think you can simply block them. I feel like blocking is better than having a complete forget feature, Since with blocking, there's always an option to come back or maybe the person still stays as a memory in the block list rather than fully forgetting them. Which i like better

[hasty vessel]

and what if the player was a predator? or made weird advances? does that premise still count for those players? i hope the new UI opens up the possibility of completely removing a player from your experience. you can do it in real life so i don’t find it logical that your are unable to in a game

[silent lily]

I still think blocking works just fine..

[steady pond]

the issue with unfriending is that ... what if you run into them again? especially if the person is a mutual friend with other friends of yours, it makes it even easier for your servers to merge and come across each other again. and you might not even know its them until you chat.

if the player is a predator and theyre blocked at least they cant interact with you anymore, so theres that

[tender oasis]

So it seems i could bind the pin both to live (first) and then opened it in beta where it also offered the option to bind. Spell worked in both of them. (Don’t risk it tho if you)

[steady pond]

i understand where you're coming from though, i do wish theres a way to block and then make it possible so that your servers can never merge/its impossible to meet again but that seems a bit difficult with how sky works in general

[hasty vessel]

oh i see! sorry i’ve never used to blocking feature before, i thought when you blocked someone their name still appeared in your constellation but they are actually placed into another separate blocked list, is that correct? thank you for clarifying

[vagrant pulsar]

must people buy the new capes to complete a constellation?

[copper bison]

was trying to draw a sky comic but then laggy tablet completely crashed so i'm back, not risking it again.

[copper bison]

no, they do not have to buy the new capes to complete a constellation

[worn trail]

Does the pins bind to an account?
Or are they usable by different People or accounts

And useable in beta?

[simple bobcat]

They are bound to one account. You can't use it on other accounts. However, you should be able to use it on the beta as well as the live afaik

[worn trail]

Didn't expect the bind. But yeah understable

There is a cool down but infinite uses?

[simple bobcat]

30min cooldown for the cosmetic pins

[worn trail]

That's huge
Lasts ten minutes per use?

[humble bolt]

The battle for entering beta starts again

[tawny badger]

Not battle, beta invite trial.

[safe knoll]

Trail of Beta Access

[valid terrace]

ok I turned on push notifications

How do I customise what gives me notifs

how quickly do they typically fill up

[marble cove]

hello

[wintry vine]

Haha, I feel like a battle too

[low kindle]

👀

[kindred fossil]

depends at what (random) times they're issued, it ranges from 5 minutes to an hour or two

[humble bolt]

The last ones are the ones that fill up slower

[random gull]

i wake up to access wipes and beta channel hype again ooooo.

[kindred fossil]

also go to the server's notifications settings and select "only @mentions"

[radiant drum]

As long as you don’t have “suppress All Role @ mentions” turned on you should be good

[toxic plank]

[mental ridge]

My discord notifications from this particular server always arrive like 15 minutes after I get pinged, so I’m left with having to check everything manually good luck to y’all, hope to see you again after the upcoming inevitable chaos is over

[shell drum]

[hexed quail]

i'm excited....

[silk zephyr]

me too

[clear cargo]

I haven't got to beta in a few months.. Will i get no access to future updates ?
I'm too busy for the game

[radiant drum]

Everyone will have their access wiped and need to rejoin if they’d like to keep testing

This happens frequently, so if you cannot get in or would like to take a break from beta, you can always rejoin next time too!

[clear cargo]

:0 thank you

[valid terrace]

How do I make all the notifs just mentions

[humble bolt]

In last wipe I still had access to beta

[radiant drum]

This server is default to just mentions because of its size. The ping will be a role mention however, so you should get those unless you suppress them in settings

[hexed quail]

you can still access the beta tho, but you won't get the upates... unless you did, and you're lucky haha

[humble bolt]

I mean, it still was saying that I'm a tester

[random gull]

that's a Google specific bug. my access didn't get wiped on Google on the first round either. i wouldn't rely on that though because most Google users do get their access wiped still and you might not get lucky enough to be one of the buggy ones that stays a second time.

[bitter stag]

It’s that time of the year huh

[kindred fossil]

yeah, it also might be a delay, my access wasn't revoked until an hour later after the initial wipe

[valid terrace]

Will I have to go through every single server I’m in and set it to mentions-only

[late scarab]

I’m gonna try to get into beta again is that even possible haha I don’t want to have to leave it’s been so fun!

[radiant drum]

Why would you?

Everyone gets the same chance at joining regardless if they were a previous tester or not, Faze so it’s definitely possible, but also hard because there’s just a lot of people

In the end it comes down to luck on being available at random times when invites comes out

[random gull]

safest course of action is if your access isn't revoked, is manually leave and rejoin on beta invite waves to make sure you're not gonna randomly lose access later. Google would pull something wild like that

[humble bolt]

I did that on the last wave

[silent lily]

Also, this happened last time too, the new people who joined beta last time thought they don't have to re-join and they'll stay. But no, evryone has to re-join by tapping the link. Everyone's access is denied, so all of us have to rejoin. Even tho they were already in beta last time, they'll have to join
Just a reminder, if you were confused

[bleak gazelle]

What day have invites for beta

[random gull]

yup I've been on beta since like feb/mar and i have to rejoin every time too

[silent lily]

Me too

[worn trail]

Skybot: And the Chaos begin

[silent lily]

Tho chat is not as chaotic this time , last time and Before that,it was something else by this point. Even after the access wipe announcement like this, the chat went crazy like Before

[worn trail]

You mean #general-sky-discussion ?😂

[silent lily]

Nope, i mean this channel when beta invites are open or anything related to them is announced

[worn trail]

I can feel a paragraph coming 😏

[stray imp]

The wipe will come soon, this is my first time being Beta tester, and im not sure if i can join next wave, so I want to say, thankyou so much for everyone here, it was amazing journey on beta, i have once again feels like moth. And feels the enthusiast from a new journey on another sky world. I met alot of new friends from Beta and as always, they are so kind and nice to moth me. See you when I see you again all Beta player. Sorry if im not a good tester player before, and.. forgive me, maybe in future I will lurk in Beta channel for new update, ehehe

[humble bolt]

wait for the invites day

[random gull]

my Google finally got the update from 2 days ago

[stiff delta]

Soooo it begins 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[honest yoke]

Wait, the beta invite has ended?

[shell drum]

nope

[kindred fossil]

the access wipe didn't even start yet, so no

[dusty crystal]

We will be REMOVING beta access for all players on iOS and Android tomorrow Tuesday November 24th :|

[outer junco]

Rip

[dusty crystal]

everything come to an end ^^

[silent ingot]

You will still be able to access the latest build (157537) until a future update is released Sky Beta will remain on your device, but you will not be able to download future updates. PLEASE LINK YOUR BETA ACCOUNT TO GOOGLE OR GAME CENTER BEFORE YOUR ACCESS

Do you know how to contact them to stay in the beta?

[random gull]

good news tho. there wont be updates for a little while so we can stop downloading back to back updates

[dusty crystal]

you don't, you just wait for the invite wave

[random gull]

yuuriel #beta-faq you just have to accept a new invite when they send the invited out. please read all of the faq though theyre very helpful

[humble bolt]

at what time is the wipe? I know it's today tho

[radiant drum]

They haven’t shared a specific time, but it doesn’t really matter until an update comes out. Previous testers will still have access to the current version regardless

[random gull]

some time today we wont lose access to the game though justbaccess to downloading updates

[desert mango]

Thankyou tgc for the opportunity to test the best game in the world , it really does bring the community together , also the merchandise is such high quality I’m amazed and am happy I recieved today and is nicer than ever expected 😘🤍😘

[dusty crystal]

it can even be tomorow depending of your timezone

[kindred fossil]

it can be a few months depending on how much you sleep

[dusty crystal]

ahahaha I didn't expect that

[silk zephyr]

"Ten thousand years later..."

[dusty crystal]

plot twist : wake up after an access wipe and a progress wipe 😰

[serene goblet]

it's that time of the year again~

[late mountain]

from #beta-announcements:
We will be sending out new invite waves AT A LATER DATE in the #beta-signup-info channel and pinging the Beta Invites (Ping) role at various times throughout the coming days to accommodate different time zones. So if you miss the first ping, don't lose hope. To re-access or rejoin the Beta, you will need to click on the provided links (see instructions in #beta-faq). These Beta links will be first come/first serve. If you play on both Android and iOS, please pick one preferred platform so others can join the test groups.

[steady pond]

nurse: sir youve been in a coma since march 2020
me: oh boy! i cant wait to get my hands on sky beta invite links 😍

[late mountain]

Waiiiit.... everything just refreshed, that was not the current conversation My bad, sorry

[verbal torrent]

is the Double hearts event in Beta now? i thought yesterday they said it wont be on bete

[brazen talon]

Can someone give me a link of one of the devs announcing that ult gifts coming back? Someone told me that it was announced in the beta section so

[little hound]

Wait. What?

[silk zephyr]

¿

[shell drum]

???

[late mountain]

Possibly this? Not quite what you're saying though.

#beta-discussion message

[spice mason]

It was never announced. It was just implied by the devs that they'd like to bring back ults. But .. don't know how to go about that yet.

[brazen talon]

Ohhh ty for answer!

[little hound]

OH BOY OH BOY OH BOY I’ve been on my knees begging for them to bring it back as a really expensive IAP. I will do whatever it takes to get it.

[late mountain]

From TGC: Seasonal Pendants and Ultimate Gifts will not appear on the Traveling Spirits in exchange for in-game currency. We plan to bring these items back in another capacity but we have not settled on what that will look like or the costs associated with it.

https://thatgamecompany.helpshift.com/a/sky-children-of-the-light/?s=gameplay-features&f=what-is-a-traveling-spirit

[spice mason]

^ that.yeah.

[little hound]

SCREAMS

[random gull]

wait meep I just noticed your nickname is your name actually kai too or did I miss another kai-pocalypse

[late mountain]

They will be back but don't get your hopes up for a return any time soon, that's old news that document. We have heard nothing since other than similar things to this to my knowledge.

[sullen relic]

double hearts seems to have been activated in beta as well now, yeah -- ktjn said she might ask the engineers if it'd be possible to enable it for us, and i guess that worked?

[random gull]

Ah def gotta thank Ktjn and engineering for doing that for us then everyone be nice

[sullen relic]

yeah, i'm throwing hearts out and some on my friends list aren't accepting them -- just take them, i'm gonna keep sending whether or not you send anything back

[random gull]

lol spear. I legit had 36 hearts (I counted) waiting for me when candles converted from season end in beta. I went from almost 400 candles to under 300 really fast. I often leave hearts sitting for ages

[sullen relic]

i'm trying to empty out my candles in case i don't come back for the next beta cycle, so peeps not accepting the hearts are just slowing me down

[random gull]

ok fine I'll try to hop on during lunch break and take it

[ionic bluff]

Rest In Peace my beta character! My time in beta was amazing, although I’m too busy in real life to enter the next beta. I found my time in beta to be so amazing, thank u for this opportunity TGC

[real mica]

how do I know if my access has been removed?

[empty river]

in ios, you wont see the beta app on testflight anymore, dunno how it looks on android

[random gull]

when you go to update the app and it says you can't update it anymore updates won't happen until after invites go out again so no worries about that yet

[empty river]

to be completely sure when you access gets removed you can keep an eye on #beta-announcements, in case they announce when its been done

[random gull]

on android though we do have a link to check in the #beta-faq channel. click that and log into the google account that your beta is attached to and if it says "you are a tester" then you still have access.

[silent lily]

It's nothing unusual on android, you have to tap a link where it'll show you if you're a tester or not.
The app will remain, if you wish to keep it, but you won't get any updates, and won't be able to play anymore once the next update gets forced

[rustic hawk]

Hello .. How can I download the sky beta for Android

[silent lily]

Please read #beta-faq , i think it has all answers

[rustic hawk]

Okay, thank you, but I wanted to know when the links are available

[kindred fossil]

we won't know

[lament moss]

will we be tester for next season if we have been a tester once?

[empty river]

theres a role you can get in beta-faq that lets you get pinged when they release invites, since you dont have it i recommend you go get it ^^

[rustic hawk]

Ok, thank you very much❤️

[kindred fossil]

you have to regain access if you wish to continue testing

[rare birch]

wait beta invites are out or coming sooner?

[random gull]

no there will be access wiped in between every season so you have to sign back up again every time they do this so they can have active testers for new season. if you're active it's not difficult to get back in though. I've been on beta since like feb/mar and haven't missed an invite yet

[silent lily]

@lament moss
"Also, this happened last time too, the new people who joined beta last time thought they don't have to re-join and they'll stay. But no, evryone has to re-join by tapping the link. Everyone's access is denied, so all of us have to rejoin. Even tho they were already in beta last time, they'll have to join" copied , i sent it before too lol

[random gull]

"4️⃣ We will be sending out new invite waves AT A LATER DATE " emphasis on the at a later date part

[kindred fossil]

no, invites are coming at a later date, an access wipe will happen before then

[lament moss]

awww.. okay thank you for the answer! so does it mean that my progress is wiped in beta? or i just wont receive the new season updates in the beta

[random gull]

progress wipes and access wipes are different! make sure your game center or google is linked before the access wipe and you will keep al progress when you rejoin

[radiant drum]

Please read the latest message in #beta-announcements, it most likely has all the answers you are looking for

[rare birch]

ohh i remember now. honestly i’m more excited for access wipe

[radiant drum]

Let’s not share guesses or misinformation here. invite waves have no set time

[kindred fossil]

it can cause confusion and some might camp

[random gull]

also a good idea to save your sky ID somewhere outside the device you play sky in in case anything happens and you need your account restores things to do before the next update locks you out

[radiant drum]

They specifically do it at random times so people don’t camp here expecting for invites. Analyzing previous times will give you nothing and it causes harm to the community

[kindred fossil]

keep your observations about wether i like beans with rice or not to yourself

[stiff delta]

Actually my iPhone 8 Plus dosent show beta invites section lol iPad dose tho

[lament moss]

thank you!

[empty river]

also, keep in mind there'll more than one set of invites! and since they wont all happen at the same time everytime, theres no need to stay awake or ignore irl things you need to do

[wary stream]

I have a question relating to linking your account to your Game Center account. I’m not a beta tester, but I’m hoping to become one next invite wave. Now, my Live account is connected to my Game Center account. If I were to connect my Beta Account to the same Game Center account, will my progress in live get wiped too whenever there is a progress wipe? I know that this upcoming one is just an access wipe, but I also know that they do in fact perform progress wipes. Will my progress on live be affected too if it’s linked to the same Game Center account as my Beta Account? Apologies if this was already answered in beta faq, I read it over and that section confused me. That’s why I’m asking, apologies!!

[sullen relic]

beta and live are completely separate apps, so what happens to you in beta should have no bearing on your live account, even if they're using the same Game Center/Google Account

[wary stream]

Okay, I understand now! Thank you for your help! Apologies again if I was asking a question that should have been easy to understand dudbdjdnfkfnsj,,

[hidden zealot]

Quick question; if you report someone will they see that they have been reported?

[dense whale]

/oh yea is it the same in beta and live?

[runic path]

just don't sleep when the first wave come, you will eventually get in

[lusty light]

That’s extremely unhealthy behavior and we could take action against people doing this to force them to take care of themselves

[thin shell]

dont sleep
you'll eventually get in

[spark lance]

let get ready for beta invite xD again

[deft geyser]

I'm eyeing the beta invite

[dense whale]

/yall better not camp, if you're camping it's better be morning and next to a lake,with crabs and not on discord

[hollow cloak]

Please don't stalk beta-invites
There were times when Ktjn literally stopped typing to say that people going "KTJN IS TYPING NOW " was really creepy... And yeah, it is

edit: and let's not forget the people trying to predict her sleep schedule...

[random coral]

You better sneep instead of stalking beta invites

[dense whale]

/yep!

[deft geyser]

Chill chill guys I'm not actually stalking the beta invite

Fact tht I'm stalking the cooldown

[random coral]

I feel bad for ktjn it’s like those people are stalking them and it’s very creepy

[hollow cloak]

I know, but your message reminded me. There are plenty of of people who will

[oak berry]

I'll be too busy with school if I even wanted to, I'll just stick to notifications

[kindred fossil]

"so when are the invites coming?"
"look up at the sky"
"don't try to change the subject!"
"look up at the sky"
"huh? that's impossible"
"look up at the sky"
"awwwwww :)"

[dense whale]

/what??????

[lusty light]

Every time someone says ktjn is typing in #beta-signup-info the invites get delayed by 1 day 🌝

[kindred fossil]

look up at the sky

[valid terrace]

non-sequitur but
oh my good lord the mask is so close for me

[oak berry]

In live I have a whole spirit to go once I finish water

Note to self: dont forget to do quests or you might not finish the season

[dense whale]

/i seee? clouds?

[valid terrace]

I bring it up here because rather obviously Beta me won’t have it and with my current
well
state regarding the mask

I feel like seeing other people with it will make me STILL lose it

[random gull]

Dark is that gonna be your reaction now for the next several weeks XD ima make u an emote for that

[valid terrace]

It’s so g o r g e o u s

[hollow cloak]

I've only been on live maybe twice since the beginning of the season, I have literally 0 cosmetics

Also I can't wait for 15 minute slowmode

[oak berry]

It is a pretty mask I wish the halo was separate I want a moth with a halo

[dusty crystal]

and people asking why they can't dowload it on android

[dense whale]

/at least it's not an odd number animore

[kindred fossil]

look up at the #beta-faq

[valid terrace]

it is so damn pretty

it’s majestic in so many ways

it’s just A A A A A

just look at it how is it not the coolest th - self, you’ve said this hundreds of times

[oak berry]

Its one of my favorites amongst deer mask

[random gull]

I am gonna make a beta-faq emote now and hope we don't get external emote privilege taken away

[valid terrace]

it’s my favourite ever

[spice mason]

We won't get our privileges taken as long as people keep things civil.

[hollow cloak]

Oh no.
I was fully planning to make external emotes too, I didn't even consider that Kai

Also that reminds me - if someone on beta has deer mask, should I report them? I didn't realize some cosmetics were impossible to get and I might have missed some reports

Edit: I mean, I know some cosmetics will always be illegitimate, but I wasn't sure which

[spice mason]

You should definitely report them.

[radiant drum]

The first season that was possible to be completed in beta was belonging

[spice mason]

There was a progress wipe after the pre-beta, iirc . So people wouldn't be able to have the deer mask even if it WAS possible to get it during that cycle.

[valid terrace]

I really really can’t help but feel I might be the most ridiculously excited about the Anubis mask out of possibly everyone

[spice mason]

I love the Anubis mask a lot but I prefer the fox mask.. >>

[radiant drum]

we tested gratitude after the progress wipe, but for like 2 weeks. most people managed to get like 2 items lightseekers was longer, but not long enough to complete. seasons duration increased dramatically for beta testing since belonging, and we also started having the collection boost

[valid terrace]

I am just
a vibrating excited mess about it

[hollow cloak]

Okay, thanks for the info! Good to know

[spice mason]

Honestly prophecy was such a good season.

[gilded parrot]

The prophecy foretells that @spice mason... ||Will actually have a very good day today||

[spice mason]

...that was my first skybot cold ping. .. ty skybot...

[gilded parrot]

What do you all want now

[wise cliff]

Bye Beta! and Welcome would be New Testers.

[dense whale]

/prophecy was a good season, considering even tho i cant play as much i still kidnapped a cónsiderable amount of moths, this time even easier than other seasons

[stark sundial]

but that was a normal ping :v or it was too late? I see it in the same minute

[dire reef]

cant find anything... but thanks i guess..

[random gull]

I did the thing

[radiant drum]

#beta-faq has a detailed explanation about the beta testing and invite process

if you are aware of how it works, the only thing you could do really is download Testflight beforehand if you're iOS (for android you just use the regular store), and making sure you have notifications for Discord on

[hollow cloak]

How to prepare for beta testing on Android: start praying several days in advance that Google will let you in

[gentle hornet]

Wheeeee eeze

[oak berry]

I keep beta installed so that if I snag an invite I wont have to worry about being stuck in purgatory or not having enough space

[ionic trout]

Hello everyoneeee !!!

[oak berry]

speaking of space someone remind me to transfer my beta and live screenshots later

[tender oasis]

I think Google fixed the new tester access purgatory thing. Now it's just late with the updates usually.

[slim kayak]

Morning!

[hollow cloak]

I've always wondered where those golden emotes come from...

I guess I've stumbled across some secret I'm not supposed to know

Anyways, changing my nickname for invite waves to remind people why we're here

[lusty light]

Putting faith in google

[jagged marsh]

Ios players: sky

Android players: sky

Nitendo player: y'all getting sky ?

[random gull]

Thanks Joshur! I knew there was a post about it but I couldn't remember who made it ^^;

[hollow cloak]

Switch release when?
Soon™

I wonder how beta on the Switch would work...

[jagged marsh]

Pc sky would be cool tho

[lusty light]

There wouldn’t be a beta

[jagged marsh]

2021 as they said !

sky nitendo will have better graphics then android and ios ??

[dense whale]

/yessss and then we shall have more mothss to yeet

[hollow cloak]

I wonder how it'd compare to Android as far as bugginess goes.

[random gull]

I'm legit gonna be towing around 7 switch moths all my normal friends gonna wonder why they can't teleport to me

[dense whale]

/yes please!!!! !!

[sullen relic]

i'm actually unsure how sky could improve graphically as a game for the most part -- i imagine the main difference would be how well the switch could handle framerates compared to older phone models?

[lusty light]

The graphics would just be crispier

[dense whale]

/ohh imagine a crisper krill

[lusty light]

Like the game doesn’t look the same on all mobile devices already

[sullen relic]

that sounds fair, i'm just not expecting the switch to outright have something that the mobile version doesn't if that makes sense

[oak berry]

I may just get sky on switch to play again being a moth is fun

[wary stream]

Omg wait if Sky is coming out to the Switch in 2021
Does this mean there’s a chance to possibly have Skykids in Super Smash Bros Ultimate in the future? (Comparing it to when Undertale and Minecraft were able to be played on the Switch and now they’re characters in SSBU)

[kindred fossil]

yo is that a kid being beat up by ganon

[hollow cloak]

I would 100% try to be completely capeless on Switch (like, from the very beginning).
I did almost a full run capeless on beta, until I accidentally picked up a winged light in Vault

[spice mason]

hehdhsshhs as funny as it is I'm just. Yeah no. Wwww
..

[lusty light]

Tgc would never allow that

[dense whale]

/we honked to assert dominance

[lusty light]

Also kids aren’t safe in smash bros we have ness and Lucas and inklings

[kindred fossil]

ya

[pine remnant]

add that to the list of the OSHA violations in SSBU

[oak berry]

Skykids cant really attack anything either

[random gull]

how did we get on smash bros skybeta?

[kindred fossil]

cause sky on switch

[sullen relic]

something about Sky on the switch, but yeah, we're not quite in beta territory there

[wary stream]

Very true, very true. Sorry, just got excited after learning about the news of Sky being on Switch. I hadn’t heard that until now. Sorry for being off topic!! I’ll leave now djdjfjfjsifjfjsk

[random gull]

I just hope our external emote privilege doesn't get taken away during invite wave hype I like my gold emotes

[hollow cloak]

I'm trying to decide if it's worth it to make custom emotes just for invite waves... If external emotes get turned off, that's a lot of time wasted

[random gull]

OH I just realized I have like a TON of candles. ima go friend all the buff moths

[lusty light]

It seems like a lot of work something that you would use for less than a week

[wispy cave]

When will the eligibility be issued?

[lusty light]

We don’t know and we will not know

[random gull]

I made in like 30 seconds

[radiant drum]

It will be here when it's here!

We'd only disable external emotes here if people can't behave. Same thing for extremely long slowmodes

[random gull]

everyone please behave

[kindred fossil]

or you'll get coal this christmas

[hollow cloak]

I know it's a lot of time spent for less than a week, but invites feel like they take a lot longer because of the chaos
That's why the idea of just dropping an appropriate reaction is appealing to me

[sullen relic]

i like the irony of a self-proclaimed gremlin asking for other gremlins to behave

[random gull]

puts gremlin energy in a jar sometimes

[lusty light]

Idk do you really need a specially made reaction for things for a few days it just seems like you can spend your time better not worrying about this chat

[hollow cloak]

That's a good point.

I like to worry

[kindred fossil]

yeah, you don't have to answer the repetitive questions all the time, i didn't that much the last invite wave and i felt 100 years younger

[hollow cloak]

Best case scenario I will forget to make any emotes and eventually leave this channel alone because I'm tired of stressing
It did actually feel really nice to step away from the hundreds of redundant questions...

[oak berry]

I usually just lurk and answer the occasional question, most of the time I'm doing something else in the background

[random gull]

I actually managed to convince myself to walk away from the chaos that was the new capes debate the other day. ngl I was stressing about that one I kinda got called out for pushing myself too hard again in game so I had to walk away

[oak berry]

Its definitely good to take breaks and step away from things gotta help yourself before you help others!

[spark lance]

put notifs on, and live your life huhu. everything will be fine

[radiant drum]

No one, including us mods, are required to stay here answering questions if it becomes stressful or simply an unpleasant discussion to be in. Go hang out in another channel, or do something else with discord opened in the background and be happy

[worn trail]

All are humans after all

[hollow cloak]

Honestly, when people are being chaotic and unreasonable, I feel compelled to try to sort things out and calm it down, so that's probably why I'm on this chat stressing over things I don't need to

Thanks for the advice everyone, I'll try not to do anything unhealthy

[random gull]

sky OST is legit the best when I'm stressed. it makes me so happy

[radiant drum]

This is an official server and the only place where those invites will be posted, there will be hundreds of repeated questions here from different people. We appreciate all the help, but the server will be truly fine when you step away for some time or completely. We have a great moderation team as well as many, many helpful members

And in the end, nothing we tell people will solve their main concern: wanting the beta invite wave to happen. So we all just wait together

[worn trail]

Can more waves be put with the same number of slots? Beta invite camping is a serious issue! Many are not concerned about themselves. Maybe this will demote invite camping.

[hollow cloak]

Thanks for that, I'm honestly so grateful for the mods here managing the chaos
You guys work so hard. I guess I'll just relax and poke my head in from time to time

[radiant drum]

You can submit feedback about the invite waves to TGC in #beta-feedback. we mods have no say in how they work and are waiting just like the rest of you

[random gull]

I feel like people would camp no matter what solution TGC came up with 180k+ people, no small amount of which want into beta. There's bound to be campers no matter what. Just try to take care of yourselves I know I"m a hypocrite

[worn trail]

Going to copy paste my suggestion there. Thanks for the idea

[hollow cloak]

Sometimes I just need someone to tell me, 'no, the server will not explode if you are not there, there are people whose jobs are to deal with this, go sit down and have a cup of tea'

And exactly, in such a large group of people there will always be really extreme folk who do wildly unhealthy things no matter how you set it up

[random gull]

eh my sleeping schedule isn't intentional at least so slightly less hypocrite I guess I did actually take a beta break like I got told to. haven't logged in more than lighting constellation in a few days

[worn trail]

To be honest I think the random invite waves will actually lead to more camping. Multiple fixed timings would reduce anxiety? any suggestions?

[random gull]

fixed times would mean those invites disappearing much faster from people camping and posting them to external sources

[slim kayak]

There isn't really a good fix to stop camping. But, ktjn didn't ping beta invites this time, so those with only that role don't know the waves are coming soon. Less camping from the start

[minor falcon]

I bet discord crashing would become a problem as well if invites were dropped at fixed times

[worn trail]

Pros and cons of each method fixed would lead to less anxiety atleast. By the I don't plan on getting into beta because i cant play both sky's at once.

Maybe how about diving people into groups? And then having the invites?

That'll fix the crashing problem at the least

[tender oasis]

I just want to say a big thanks to all those betas who played with me this season and shared their ideas and experiences to test it out.
Thanks for the hard work, awesome season and for the double heart event too to the devs.

Also did anyone experienced splitting before the 8 player puzzle cave, forest crab cave and the upper 4 player room in vault? 6 of us on 6 different servers

[minor falcon]

or a lottery style place assignment there's problems with any system

[worn trail]

Let's use the giveaway bot to select who gets beta 😁

[random gull]

Pakka there's been splitting like that in both beta and live. just random yeet all friends to separate servers

[runic path]

then I will never get into beta due to my bad luck

[oak berry]

That wouldnt really make it fair to everyone though(?) I dont really know how giveaway bots work so forgive me if I make any wrong assumptions

[random gull]

lottery style oof. sky isn't a gacha game for a reason

[worn trail]

Didn't actually mean it hehe just a fun idea to continue the conversation

[lusty light]

It is impossible for the devs to have any other beta invite system than what they have right now

[sullen relic]

lottery definitely isn't a good idea in my mind, that'd encourage people using dummy accounts to increase their chances of getting in

[tender oasis]

I didnt have it for a while neither in beta nor live but this just happened to us 3 times now in one day so i thought i ask

[worn trail]

THE END

[sullen relic]

pakka, it might just be your bug magnetism acting up again

[runic path]

Oh btw it's time for season_intro_1_09

[worn trail]

As soon as the season teaser drops I'm outta this chat. All because of a challenge 🤦

[random gull]

I like the current system actually! it's easy to join without camping (I have my ping roles) and there's lots of waves at different times so I won't miss out on all of them. It puts the power to get into beta into my own hands and not my terrible luck.

[minor falcon]

a new questgiver to say "adios" and crash the game

[lusty light]

Beta invites aren’t really supposed to be convenient for the tester it’s supposed to be convenient for the developer

[oak berry]

The floor is lava 3

[lusty light]

Ktjn doesn’t have to send out invites at different times to accommodate everyone but she does anyway to be nice

[random gull]

and I definitely appreciate her for that! invite waves are seriously stressful for TGC

[hollow cloak]

I feel like pinging updates only to start is a good method to also help current beta testers to continue what they're doing...

I just hope that people don't riot over "not being told" for the first wave, I'm afraid that people could get really disrespectful about that

[lusty light]

Well like

No one was ever told about the first wave

Just that it’s happening... some time....

[slim kayak]

Soon™️

[lusty light]

And if they don’t read the faq and set up their notifications correctly that’s their fault

[humble bolt]

if we are sleeping it's not

[runic path]

anyway beta wave won't come out before access wipe I'm out for sneep see ya

[lusty light]

I’m not talking about that though

We are never given a time when invites are going out, and if people don’t prepare for them after we point them to the right place to get informed then that’s on them

[hollow cloak]

But it's not Ktjn's fault for sending out invites at an hour when people other than you are awake.

And yeah, Seraph, you're absolutely correct, some people just... Like to get angry anyways

[real cargo]

If I delete TestFlight will beta delete?

[lusty light]

No but you won’t be able to update your app

[real cargo]

Oh ok thank you
