Q: Are all spirits unlocked in first day? Just curious

Also had that question. I started in the middle of the last season so I'm really not sure how seasons start with the spirits.

youll see in a few hours, this isnt really the place to bug testers with questions pSkyPeek

bitter yarrow
#

oh- really sorry then-

fathom river
#

it's alright. all spirit are available right away. usually that is.

lusty light
#

Also things that happen in beta doesn’t mean they will happen in live, for example the seasonal quests from the guide happened a few days between each other, but in live it was a week

blissful torrent
#

is there a ts chart for jan 2021? bc I thought i remembered ts charts for the beta being a thing stickerHuh

#

also is there a way to report a bug outside of discord? ik that this isnt the right place to asky this but idk where

fathom river
#

hmm what chart? ts are the same for live and beta. regarding the bug reports, I think discord is the only way (preferred)

lusty light
#

You can report bugs though helpshift in game, but for beta it is strongly preferred to do it here

just a gentle reminder to read through #beta-faq if you haven't already! it reminds us that the beta channels aren't meant to be a q&a. anyways, the season is gonna start in a few hours, i'll bet you 5 of my winged light that someone already has a list/guide ready to post SkyLOL

After doing eden again , I’m more and more hoping that some changes wil be brought to the hail area , might it be an increase of kids to give light to , or an expansion of the area.

Tgc still has the old eden slide /fly trip. I wonder why they never used that one anymore , with the 🦋

tender oasis
#

It's funny that you can get all the status with 60+ reborn wings if you go to eden twice without collecting a single one in the realms. Im not sure which is morr effective a double eden or a full wing run+eden.

stark sundial
sullen relic
#

personally, i'm more fixated on the idea of whether having fewer winged lights to speed up the eden trip is worth the lower CR speed throughout the week; i'm definitely feeling a fair bit slower than usual if i attempt to candle run on 7 flaps instead of my usual 10, because that's cutting my ability to sprint across certain distances -- that extra delay in the CRs might not be worth waiting a couple more minutes in eden to get the wings beaten out

#

it's a choice between spending some extra time collecting all the wings and waiting a bit longer at eden to have more mobility in your CRs for the duration of the week, versus spending less time to collect wings and waiting less at eden in exchange for more restrictions during your weekly CRs -- i'm personally preferring the "more flaps" choice

stark sundial
#

it also depends if you have a batt in cr, the only place I found annoying with few flaps is getting out of the underground cavern in forest real fast, I have to recharge in a jellyfish when I'm with 7 wedges, no other point come to my mind where more than 7 or 8 wedges make a significant different to my cr time

lament mica
#

For me lower wedges can be felt everywhere cuz I like to boost. I don’t stop flapping until I have nothing left 😆

sullen relic
#

i remember wasteland (particularly the approach to the ark) really annoying me quite a bit when i didn't have my usual 10 flaps, and i'm also the type to flap-sprint everywhere so long as it's not going to cause me to slide and massively overshoot where i'm aiming for; forest is also more annoying to manage when the rain's constantly draining your light

runic path
#

Personally I can't survive without my 11 flaps. I just use up all my flaps as long as I still have SkyLOL

tender oasis
#

Im fine with one flap until i have a friend to charge.SkyLOL who i usually have, but on solo runs waste can be harder that's true.pThink

hermit valley isn't accessible yet on live due to being tied specifically to the third spirit quest so anything inside hermit valley shouldn't be discussed in live but anything regarding just the name or it's accessibility is ok to discuss in live channels.

the hermit valley is inaccessible in live because it's tied to one of the seasonal quests

I love that we can’t go hermit valley yet ... in fact it’s awesome ... I must say even though I done the season in beta - I did really enjoy starting again .. apart from the bugs ...hearing the music again is the best ... I really do hope that turtle boat camera issue and camera that plagues all realms gets fixed ASAP cause it really does spoil the feeling... the boat paralysation is the worst and makes me not want to visit the village ... if when you loose controls and it shows you a cutscene then it would feel better ( like the manta one in praire except you can move in that )

wind dawn
#

Its weird cause those issues never appeared in beta and the beta season went pretty smooth too. I don’t understand how come it gets so buggy once it’s on live

hollow compass
#

Um, all of these issues were in beta for the first iteration of the season.
But Live also has a higher player load, which causes issues with reliving spirits colliding with other features.

Unforeseen bugs .. yep ... but it’s the boat one I want fixed more than all , I half expected issues with spirits ..the boat one I think may be tricky to fix ... but I admit that apart from the spirit issue and camera ones ...it’s actually all good so far - my friends that never tested beta are really loving it - that’s what matters and makes me re enjoy it .. 🕊🤍🕊

hollow compass
#

I think the boat issue is similar to the Prairie village one with the mantas. Depending on what the game interprets as the active area, players will be made part of the cut scene whether they want to or not. It's probably difficult to separate the cut scene from everyone who isn't activating it.

you keep your items until a progress wipe but afaik there's only been one full progress wipe. Just keep in mind it's still possible to happen again in the future if needed. They have wiped our currency since I started beta testing so I don't get super attached to anything I have in case.

This particular bug report stood out but lacked important context which is why QA specifically asked me to reach out for more information.

There's a big difference between a quest in-progress and missing entirely.

I'm confused by that report as the version number doesn't match the current beta version also.

vapid briar
#

if you haven't already, please submit a bug report, and be sure to include specifics about which spirit you couldn't find and what zone you were in. Details and specifics are valuable to the team to more quickly identify the cause of a bug and subsequently find a fix more readily.

tiny umbra
#

Half the dreams spirits were missing for me in live, just an orange glow where they should have been(I also saw this bug with the Pouty Porter, yeah I've been meaning to report it for a while)

vapid briar
#

As it stands, we're unable to reproduce what is happening on Live right now on internal servers, so any lead is helpful.

Lyze, if you could report that about a non-seasonal spirit, that would be incredibly helpful.

mighty estuary
#

For me I can't relieve the skater memory for first quest. Even if i did it, the quest won't register as success

eager fulcrum
#

i think there is an issue of someone already starting the spirit, and it being gone when people get there, only showing an orange orb. and when it completes it doesn’t let you light again because you were in the area. that’s what happened to me at least, with peeking. going home and going back worked for me and my two friends who were with me (live)

#

however it did happen to someone else in gen chat and going back home and going back didn’t work for them stickerGloomy

vapid briar
#

Yeah, we're aware it's likely due to a corrupted instance, but we're unsure if it's a server/network issue or a game code issue. one of those is considerably easier to resolve than the other.

tiny umbra
#

It's also something with server merging as well, I spent a while trying to get the Peeking Postman, as soon as the server merged it showed up as completed, but then it remerged and the memory came back to where it was supposed to be for me, and then remerged again and I had to fly to the spirit's husk to get the emote

vapid briar
#

We know, the team has been solely focusing on this since the season began 16 hours ago. It's pretty simple to explain what's occurring from an optics perspective, but the technical aspects are much more complex. It's not something that is easily resolved like a typo or a missing checkbox.

storm vessel
#

Could it be the same as having carried spirit light left over stuck to you like the reliving is not ending like it should?

elder musk
#

I can only share what worked for me in Live. There are 2 spawn points in Village of Dreams: one on the smaller frozen lake behind the quest giver, and another by the ski lift with the candle cake. So whichever spirit you want to collect you need to leave the map on that spawn point. Close the app (going Home doesn’t help), relaunch, use return shrine. You have about 10-15 seconds to initiate the spirit memory before the “server jumps”: you know it happened when the camera freezes and spirit memory suddenly completes. You can then walk to the frozen statue, activate it and collect the spirit.

gilded talon
#

I don’t know if this information could help Ktjn, I tried going in Village of Dreams in Live in a group of 6 (with friends) and since we didn’t get any server merges, we could see all four spirits pretty fine. We even took our time to take photos and then collect spirits.

storm vessel
#

Surely must be because previous reliving is not ending after the server merges.

random gull
#

ah maybe I should try to collect spirits on live then and help with bug reports. I was going slow for personal reasons but the urge to help is strong

storm vessel

I did see server missing problem after reliving the dance teacher spirit. In live

I did go into beta the night before Dreams so I could freshen up on spirit locations and winged light locations, I guess a few other people had the same idea, our problems were mostly with the boats restarting(freezing our controls) and the camera freezing, you know like normal, I gave up after I couldn't see the Postman, I decided to go to bed SkyFaint

#

Is it just me, the live version has more bugs than the beta when we first started testing?

slim kayak
#

yeah, sometimes that happens. the dev team has been working nonstop trying to fix it (see above)

tiny umbra
#

It's been odd but not unexpected, these specific bugs are pretty tricky so all we can do is wait for a fix and support the devs the best we can

fathom river
#

True. I'm patient when it comes to this. I just keep hyping my friends haha so they won't lose their excitement

random gull
#

I think live has more people as Aeras said so if this is a server merge bug then the bug is gonna be a LOT worse on the server with 50 million people than the one with 30 thousand

#

i'm heading into beta in a few minutes, gonna go to forest, if anyone wants to relive spirits and see if we server merge with the bug

I did all 4 spirit in beta this morning when season just hit live, they worked here perfectly. And I never noticed somehow that skating girl is actually recharging you while she skates and you move through it. Guess she counts as an active spirit.

time to relive all the forest spirits! SkyBoogie

I could relive shimmy in full as I should have been able to in live since they were the first spirit I lit up, others not so much

Not sure if this helps in the technical aspects of the case of vanishing spirits. In Live: me and my android friends can see the spirits if we switch off WiFi before we enter village from return shrine @ home. After we start a spirit memory we can switch on the WiFi and complete the memory without any issue...

should I submit each spirit as a separate bug report <_<;

I didn't, I think if you're detailed enough with your additional information it's fine?

currently trying to reproduce the non-seasonal spirit bug on beta if a bunch of people wanna go to the broken bridge area and try and force a server merge with me and/or Aeras. I have a spirit currently active and one already relived

#

and after a half hour of testing.... nothing! couldn't replicate the bug. SkyFaint

storm vessel
#

It's probably their attempt to fix the bear hug spirit reset that started the new spirit missing bug.

slim kayak
#

maybe. i could try to go in live later to see if i can catch it again. it's the non-seasonal ones that i'm concerned about, since the bug apparently affects those too

stray elk
#

I was looking in #beta-bugs-ios and found out some people in live reported bugs...

#

Also when you freeze in the new area, it’s probably the boat cutscene, it’s worst in beta since there are three boat lifts...

random gull
#

I couldn’t reproduce missing spirit entirely. I got a wisp on the one spirit I couldn’t activate. it was floating around like a finished spirit memory but not going to the end checkpoint

I think it will be better after a few days or maybe even weeks since everyone’s rushing to the spirits

hello everyone, how are we all doing on this fine evening/morning/night

faint hazel

hello, what are everyones opinions on the ap locked ts? also are live people looking in allowed to give feedback?

i want to give a feedback about ap locked ts because if they are locked i will be sad :( but i dont know how to give good, maybe constructive, feedback on it. i also dont have any ideas for alternatives for keeping the value of the items while not costing money. i was thinking maybe if you have the ap, the items that were locked in the season would be cheaper, but that feels overcomplicated.

i might not make a feedback because i might not be allowed, or because im too scared. but i still want to hear what others think. thanks

fathom river
slim kayak
#

you are allowed to give feedback on beta things even if you aren't in beta. and you don't have to give an alternative. just tell the devs how you feel about such a system pSkyLove

rigid pumice
#

What are the specifics on the lock? Is it just that you have to have the current pass to be able to shell out candles for some of the TS items, or are you able to get said items without candles if you have the pass?

slim kayak
#

when we were testing it, the items behind the lock were free. the ones that needed candles were slightly more expensive than they would have been in live. the overall price is cheaper.

clear dove
#

hi beta people, how are you feeling about the new candle forging system?

rigid pumice
#

Wow, it's actually tough to formulate my definitive opinion on that... Normally, i'd definitely be against throwing non-iap players under the bus like that, but most of my active friends, even the ones that are unable to buy iap recieved the pass this time around... And with the upcoming candle forging changes, that might solve some of the candle-run burnout regardless of the cheaper prices in the AP-Locked TS. So really, I think non-iap players would just be losing in a system like that.

A question: when the candles forging system will start in live sky and how many lvls do we get ?

There are five levels to each of the three chevrons. As for when it'll go live, I'm not sure, but they said sometime this year.

I just done full candle run in live while carrying 4 ppl. No stop and it takes 2 hour and 21 min. Is it slow or fast?

kindred fossil

that's the average time, some usually finish in an hour and 30 minutes. my best was... 1 hour and 49 minutes

hollow compass
kindred fossil

could be related to the new system? there isn't much of a difference for a full run either way

I don’t think there should be a difference in time from beta and Live. It’s just the wax collecting that is different.

kindred fossil

oh then, you'll only notice a difference for a partial run, not a full one

icy falcon
#

depends on how much time you have to spend burning stuff. you will definitely feel the difference between a melted and an unmelted server

The only difference you notice is that candle forging slows down after a while, but you still get the same amount of wax if you do a full run.

the treasure candles already had that issue on live during days of feast too but I noticed the seasonal candles doing it too. It definitely has been confusing people though I've had to explain the animation shows but you're not actually getting more "wax"/ light pieces pain

the darkness plants have been appearing bright even after being burnt and their wax collected for a while too. in both live and beta. first noticed it around when this testing period started pSkyPeek

Hey guys. I'm typing it in beta so ppl don't realize this spoiler. But don't you think the new season trailer is revealing too much? Like the spirits clapping on the skater for 4th quest cutscene and how the stadium lights up for the final quest. Idk. I just feel it's more magical and emotional experiencing it all by myself with no expectation.

primal pagoda

stadium scene was only 4 seconds long I don’t think it ruins anyone experience SkyShrug

I agree, I didn’t feel like the trailer spoiled anything either! Besides we have to wait at least a week in between each of the quests so there’s plenty of time for people to forget what they saw in the trailer before they get to that quest

you might be onto something though misty! they do leave things intentionally vague on sky lore so they probably didn't want it to be canon that it was a yeti so people could interpret it how they liked. hermit is vague while still describing them living alone in the "valley" pThink

I thought the spirits not showing is only a live problem

I don’t know. Never had any issues with invisible spirits in beta, but the camera bug did happen.

I presumed it was a bug in beta as well, but more difficult for us to encounter because empty servers.. I had no problem reliving spirit memories in live as long as we were the first ones on the server doing it 🙏🏻. I did see some bug reports of people having the same issue in beta

desert token
#

hmm, I think a lot of players get their spirits extremely early - which is is natural as a tester - and don't really try reliving them after that point. if issues crop up along the season's way it can be hard to catch I assume. also, a lot of the "moths" you see in beta don't really participate in the bug reporting/feedback process - while it's easy to assume they do

I should make a habit of reliving some spirits every once in a while to see if anything's bugged or not pThink

The spirits as well? That's news (at least to me)

If the bug isn't fixed would I put that in bug reports or in feedback?

analog citrus
#

I kinda haven't been paying super close attention to the TS changes, but a few people asked me to explain and had I a bit of trouble finding the old posts so ... here's a couple questions. You have to own the CURRENT pass to unlock the pass locked TS items right? Do you have access to them if you are gifted a pass? You also dont have the ability to purchase those items even if you have the pendant (and thus got the pass) from the season the TS is from?

mental juniper
#

IMO it would be better if CMs ask us to all beta players to enter in a map in a certain area and burn all nightmares, relieve all the spirits so we can trigger this issues as it is harder to do it on beta with less players

For a bug like this, please try to include as much information as possible! Videos might be useful too. Hopefully we can help TGC identify and fix it for good

I went with a group of people to try and trigger the camera freezes in forest and prairie where I’ve experienced them on live before and couldn’t reproduce the camera freezes. had a minor camera pan issue whenn burning the big plant in sanctuary but I think that is something that just occurs when you’re burning plants sometimes due to the camera being too close to the plant. I did still experience a camera lock in village when someone activated the boats when I wasn’t close to the boats at all. seems like it’s fixed everywhere but village for me

I think it just refers to how you're placed into a server instance with other players. So if you suddenly notice that you're not seeing anyone, or if you notice weird things happening on server merges like the spirits disappearing or the camera bug, since that seems to have been related to some of those issues

While this specific camera bug is being worked on. I hope the camera in general can be fixed as well. It’s been getting worse and worse. In the new stadium area it acts all kinda funky now. Like it’s got a mind of it’s own. Panning this way and that and zooming. Makes the light gathering a bit of a pain. And when your anywhere else and your holding somebody’s hand it seems like I’m looking oob or inside myself half the time.

Yup it can get buggy in live sometimes, especially for bugs that involve many people or server merges/server strain which can go unnoticed in beta. The beta community are trying to help identify the bugs on the beta testing side of things and the TGC team is putting in the huge effort to try and create solutions and reproduce bugs to narrow down the problems. Hopefully they can get fixed soon but the best thing we can do is test and wait patiently. I’m sure they’re doing their best as they always do to make Sky a wonderful and awe inspiring place. cEllieSkyLove

Did they just push the camera fix server-wise or is there supposed to be an update in TestFlight ?

it was a backend update, so no full update required. your app should already have the patch

as noted in #known-issues it's not a 100% resolution. Additional fixes and improvements will require a patch, the team is working on that now. No ETA on when that will hit Beta, let alone Live though.

# finite meteor install testflight and sign into the gmail account you used for testing

Testflight and Android invites can't be transferred between each other like that, you'd have to have accepted both a Testflight and Android invite during the beta wave (which is generally discouraged) to be able to transfer your beta account between android and iOS like that in the middle of a wave. The only way that suggestion would work was if Zodi's previous device was also iOS, in which case, signing into the same Apple ID on the new iPad would work -- but if they only accepted an Android beta invite without an iOS one initially, then their new iPad won't be able to download the beta app right now.

I don't see it in beta myself but it could be the same issue that was causing live players not to see it too. if it's something they're having to manually fix it's possible beta wont' get it since we are just here to test new content and TS is no longer new content.

Live is certainly their top priority. So don’t get your hopes up for beta ts anyways.

Beta progress can get wiped really???? I have been playing in beta since sanctuary, they didn’t wipe mine,, I still got all the costumes and emotes up to date... 👀

random gull

it can get wiped but the access wipes that happen between seasons dont' wipe progress. Access wipes are different from progress wipes. just don't get too attached to your beta items because if the devs have a need to wipe progress for testing purposes they will

spark lance

Can any one tell me why wasn't able to collect the first memory of the girl in season of dreams

slim kayak

it's happened before once, but we haven't had any progress wiped since then. the closest thing to a progress wipe since then was the candle wipe.

#known-issues @spark lance the quests are much like reliving spirits, which is why they aren't working

spark lance
#

So when was able to collect the first memory

slim kayak
#

you can ask for some possible fixes in #questions-and-help , but if those don't work, then you might have to wait for an update to fix the bug

spark lance
#

Ok thanks man

#

Yeah I’m aware of the access wipe, but progress wipe nope, I have friends in beta they have swing from the season of rhythm, which means they were playing in beta for more than a year,,, SeasonRhythm

slim kayak
#

I've been in beta since the start of belonging, and I can say that we haven't had a progress wipe for a very long time. the players who tested before global launch could probably tell you about that progress wipe. they had to start all over

random gull
#

like Aeras said there's only been one full progress wipe and that was before Rhythm. I've been in beta since Feb/Mar and have Enchantment cosmetics. We have had a currency wipe since I joined. It is a serious rule of thumb in beta not to get too attached to anything because if the devs need to wipe it for testing purposes they will. Same goes for if things are broken like the null ultimate issues. You won't be compensated for missing currencies.

slim kayak
#

oh yeah the null items pFIRE people got so mad when they realized they couldn't get the ultimates in beta because of a bug. this is why you should focus more on completing things in live, no risk of you permanently losing items there

random gull
#

I definitely get being frustrated over something like that. It's a natural reaction. but definitely just a beta thing that you have to be prepared for the most unexpected things to happen sLaugh live is the best place to focus your energy on cosmetic collecting and beta is a playground for bug testing.

#

the days of love swing was available for purchase on live during the reason of rhythm so that's probably what they meant

hollow compass

But we’re talking beta here, aren’t we? The swing isn’t an item from Rhythm. There was indeed an event called Days of Love. But I don’t think they coincided in beta.

I didn't join beta until after testing concluded for Rhythm so I unfortunately can't tell you bcaCry6HeartBroken

Is non stop firework a thing or do I report them?

random gull

there should be a cooldown on both the fireworks staff and the spell as far as i know. 5 fireworks then a short cooldown before you can fire 5 more

hollow compass
#

In the interest of dates and accuracy (lol), I went back to look at some dates. According to old patch notes, Rhythm started testing in beta on the 23rd 10th January 2020. But it can't have been there for very long, considering how few items most of us have, because there is a note in updates here that the Rhythm QG was reactivated on 1st February to allow players to "receive the gift Swing Spells".

slim kayak
#

yeah, rhythm lasted 12 days in beta, and the questgiver had to come back for a little bit for days of love testing. that didn't last long either

#

i only remember rhythm's length in beta because of the shock of going from belonging's 30-ish days to just 12 SkyLOL

hollow compass
#

Wait, I think I got it wrong. The patch notes are indeed for beta, but they were published on the 10th January with information that had dates for Live. Yes, exactly, the season was too short for anyone to get much items. And it definitely didn't coincide with any swing, although I can understand where the confusion came from.

random gull
#

Yeah I joined live Jan 17th and Rhythm started not too long after I joined so the 23rd being live's date makes sense!

slim kayak
#

i actually managed to get almost everything from the season. i'm just missing the last node from blow kiss (pants and mask) and all of respect. i got owl hair before the cosmetic switch and had enough to get the rhythm ultimate mask. i remember there being a price change halfway though, so that might be why i have a lot of rhythm pThink

hollow compass
#

Hm, I wonder...do I have the ultimate mask too? I can't remember right now. It was a very confusing testing period! SkyLOL

slim kayak
#

it sure was, the ultimate mask went through like, 3 changes, and cosmetics kept switching spirits pFIRE everything went by so fast

hollow compass
#

It is doubly confusing since I played Winter and had all items back then, but lost them in The Great Progress Reset.

Hey guys, is there a reason there's not a ts in beta? I know they had some problems with it earlier today in live

Oh, and also, scroll up for some dates: Days of Love wasn’t related to Rhythm nor did it occur during Rhythm testing in beta.

spark lance

people could legitimately obtain the swing in beta, but that doesn't mean people haven't obtained it illegitimately as well.

as far as the TS, we know it's missing but it's beta and not a bug that needs fixing as a fix was already applied for Live.

Hi Krilltjn, it’s good to see you around here again, we certainly want to help you the developers to address these issues

Wouldn’t it be better to ask us beta players to go to a certain location within a map and try to relieve all kind of spirits, current, past seasonal or normal ones so we can TRIGGER the camera freezing, spirits disappearing, etc?

Like “Ok beta players, please visit Burterfly Fields/Sanctuary Islands and relieve the spirits for like an hour or 2 hours”
“Now please go to Ice Rink in Valley and relieve the one at the top”

second question. if my videos are too big for discord can I submit them in feedback channel via a google drive folder link so long as I have all the proper bug report info attached as well? I definitely don’t have skybot’s bug report script memorized at this point

if the video is so big it cannot be uploaded to discord, i'd recommend trimming it down or uploading to like vimeo or youtube.

Sorry but do camera auto pan count as camera lock SkyShrug

If you didn't have control over the camera while it was panning over, then yes

if you're unable to turn the camera view back to where you wanted it, it's part of the bug.

If you can't move but you can pan the camera, and you're in the dreams village specifically, that's the boat bug

I can say that I went with a friend and activated about 4-5 spirits across different realms and the one who wasn’t near the spirit didn’t get any forced camera pans. including one of the spirits in dreams village. I did encounter a camera lock in prairie butterfly fields immediately after my friend server split from me and I’m trying to upload that to vimeo now to report it

Aw, camera lock is still in prairie. Its panning to where confetti usually sits sqwarlockDed

Hmm so other than butterfly fields (which I’ll go back and see if I can catch it) I didn’t experience any camera lock in prarie, but I noticed like the whole screen flashing black a few times? I’ll go back and check my screen recording so I can find a clip pThink

I saw a screenshot a while ago in beta screenshot and videos. Essentially. It was a traveling spirit, but some of the cosmetics the spirit had, had the seasonal symbol in the corner (I’m guessing meaning that you can only get it if you had the pass from that season)

Well the beta Ts is broken in beta SkyShrug

that was something that we were testing, yes. but there is no guarantee that it will go to live in this way, if at all. we'll just have to wait and see what the devs do to improve it, since it's very early into testing

Presumably they'd be the same since we aren't testing the new system anymore. But no one can tell you for sure since we dont have the ts right now.

hollow compass
#

If you’re in beta you will be able to check the prices yourself, although right now there is no TS. If you’re in Live, beta prices aren’t relevant since they tend to be for testing purposes until an official statement tells Live players otherwise.

In the sliding race, was there a large cloud at the end with a hole in it? I went OOB today and saw some strange things that I think was left over from the beta. Going into the hole took me to an unfamiliar place

I'm both excited and scared for switch port. Android global release made the server grow a large amount really fast and it hasn't really slowed down yet. Switch I"m sure will bring more people. I can't wait to play with my friends who's phones aren't powerful enough for sky but I also worry if the server will get too big pain I'll focus on the positive though for now and be hype for my rl friends to join me. and the opportunity to adopt even mroe moths ablobmeltsoblove

When you forgot you screen recording on for 20 minutes, but then you realize, you actually got a bug recorded thanks to this mistake ... SkyBackflip SkyDeepBow SkyTada
Btw should i write 2 different reports about 2 things which happened within one dreams quest and put the whole quest video into the attachement? Or should i separate what happened on the beginning of the quest and at the end the and split the vid to 2? I’m curious because they might be related (or not), so I’m not sure which one is preferred.

yeah in the past they've said to write separate reports if there's 2 bugs even if they happen together

No, you would have noticed it and it would have been mentioned in a patch note, as well as perhaps a new blog post.

Thank you for the help! I misremembered stickerUmm

tender knoll
#

I logged in today and warped to my friends who were in Hermit valley. We collected lights from there and stadium. I forged 3 candles and we went back home. But as i went into prarie portal i got the daily chevron reset message. I ran all realms and forged 16 candles plus 3 before reset message.

random gull
#

sounds like a bug to be reported pThink

tender knoll
#

I cant recall how much candles can we forge in live atm?

random gull
#

18-20 during season. +4 off season with daily quests

tender knoll
#

So if I am not mistaken with this new system, theres less candles around 16. And also the valley races candles count towards chevron completion.

random gull
#

yes BUT that's not the intention. hence why I said to bug report it. The devs are still working on balancing the new system so we need to report it if we're not getting the full amount on a full candle run

tender knoll
#

I see. Also after 2nd tier of chevron ends, I feel very unmotivated to run.

random gull

worth submitting to #beta-feedback any thoughts you have on the system!

as in server mods but now you say that

slim kayak

I would suspect that the terms of service would be the same on switch, which means no modding the game

vapid briar

We don't permit modding the game, I don't foresee that changing for Switch.

#

We're aware that players cannot get the same amount of candles on beta as live right now because we're not finished balancing the system. We will be adding more wax to various maps and levels in a future build which will addressing this reduction in candles forged from a full CR.

carmine thorn
# wary star OH DAMN YOU'RE RIGHT YOU CAN MOD ON SWITCH

Modding on switch breaks both TGC's EULA of not modifying the game and more importantly, modding the switch breaks Nintendo's Terms of Service. It is widely known to never let a modded switch go online unless you want it to be banned. I.E. no online features ever on that switch.

^^^ getting banned on switch would mean no online anymore ever for that device, and the only way out is to buy a new one so really not advisable to experiment.

Was it to test the bonfire flame recharging you when you were in the sludge glitch? I remember seeing smth like that before in screenshots

it was my fault for getting you krilled in the first place snowWHEEZE but yeah it was helpful to put my bonfire down on you while we distracted krills.
it was actually to test a loophole I’d found when they patched table teleport. bonfire was still able to teleport but the person I’d found the loophole with wasn’t there when Ktjn asked me to try again

it was fun blasting my friends into the heavens but oh well

drifting eagle
#

you should post that in #beta-feedback ! it doesnt make sense that AC counts towards the chevron values
also krilltjn said this about the unbalanced amount of candles in live vs beta, does this mean we will have to relearn CR?
We're aware that players cannot get the same amount of candles on beta as live right now because we're not finished balancing the system. We will be adding more wax to various maps and levels in a future build which will addressing this reduction in candles forged from a full CR.

Ah, #beta-feedback does not have a message history so I can't see if you had already posted it or not. better safe than sorry when it comes to posting feedback though, so I try to remind people to post it there too. I didnt mean any harm by it :)
As for the spirit ping pong part in ||orbit|| I'm not sure if that's intentional or not, but it makes sense that it shouldn't affect your chevron value, hopefully they'll change it to not affect your chevrons

tough oracle
#

Yea I wasn’t clear in my first message so I deleted it. I simply meant that when people say they’re only getting 15ish candles, they are not including Eden. Spirit ping pong counts towards your chevron meter so therefore should be included in full cr. It was more a PSA than me not understanding what was said earlier.

I may be a bit late w this question but

Why did the WL positions change in the village?

Is there a disclosure already on how much wax consumes the entire area of this season, outside of the Hot Springs and Gondola Cake?

And yes I know things may change. I am just inquiring about future tba wax.

vapid briar
#

Y'all realize that's a good thing right?

#

I really feel like the main village needs a bit more candles. Like a few in between some building, some on the slides so the cr path goes from hotspring to villages and from yeti slope we slide down collecting wax like when we collect wax while sliding from valley social space to ice rink

Yes, I cannot wait for it to hit live, tbh. I never get a full run in, but do two or three realms in live, and this system would mean less CR and more random fun with friends

We don't want people grinding for 6 hours a day, that's not a good use of anyone's time and not a healthy gaming experience.

mighty sedge
#

In terms of the forge system that is useless to me, personally. I aim for end total as I am not in the category of people stuck in exams or obligations. I also enjoy ubering and realming people while I have or have not already finished. Surely it will benefit many. For myself it's still a 1.5hr candle run overall. I appreciate the forge system because it shows consideration to people otherwise. Not a lot of community developers have that consideration.

vapid briar
#

We want it to be more like, "ooh i have 20 minutes to play, I want to do XYZ!" and have that feel compelling and rewarding.

random gull
#

next overhaul friendship constellation? aahhEyes im liking candle system so far. I've been going solo in beta a lot more and getting way more candles than I'd ever get alone right now in live.

vapid briar
#

And if you have 6 hours to candle grind because you find joy in that, you absolutely can still do it and have incremental gains while not breaking the economy of the entire game/playerbase.

sick pendant
vapid briar
#

The difference being because you find joy in it, not because you feel forced.

sick pendant
mighty sedge
#

I'm not lucky. I am just stable. It is neither a pro nor con for me. I just have the time of day to spend under 2hr for a full run. As I said I appreciate the system. Plenty of days I don't cr simply because I have no need for the candles as I purchase from TGC consistently. I also enjoy ubering.

Still, it's reassuring to be able to narrow my options on what I want to do in a day on Sky when I am going to be doing other things I want to do. As I said, often other communties' developers would not consider this. Nor would it be as lenient.

Nonetheless I was just curious about Beta's current wax output beyond Village of Dreams

sullen relic
#

i'd hope the new system doesn't make it too tricky to pinpoint how many candles we can earn over what rate of time, because that's a big part of how i'd decide whether i want to spend more time candle running or doing other things

random gull
#

is best not to ping the devs unnecessarily stickerHangOn in the future you can just say ktjn if she's actively chatting with us stickerLove aw i didn't mean for you to delete your post sorry bcaCry6HeartBroken was just letting you know so you were aware for the future

vapid briar
#

Since it relevant to the amount of wax discussed in the new areas, we'll be doing a pass of all the realms and adding more candles to collect. the amount added currently is to maintain balance with the current candle forging system in Live.

So

If there are places you'd like us to hide away more candles we'd love to hear your suggestions in #beta-feedback. Think of places that people don't frequent as often, or are hard to get to.

and for asks about oob: OreoNo we want these things to be accessible for everyone for the sake of fairness.

You would have to officially legitimized oob areas to add something like wax to them though; in which case they would be less "oob" and more "secret" like ||office||, in addition to learning how to use these map glitches/faults to get to these areas as opposed to a cape-locked door
