I was hoping a currency wipe will happen before a new wave of testers join
as someone who didnt get the bug and currently only has about 100 candles: yes it very much discouraged everyone from candle running because i only see the new beta moths and others like me who didnt get the bug out on candle runs. and weve been running into non seasonal bugs too. theres a reason why we need to play like we normally would and a reason theres no candles to buy in the shop. as for the reason the currency hasnt been wiped: thats a mystery to us all cuz they wiped it FAST when we had a similar bug in sanctuary testing.
I assumed that too but was pretty shocked to see my 130k still sitting there. But ig the wipe has been put on the back burner for now since they are focusing on the season
I know that the old iaps come 10 minutes after the gran event, but when is the gran event?
turtle event is every other hour starting 50 minutes after reset
Everytime I relieve a new spirit I get a candle for free. Is it a bug or is it normal in beta?
Having geyser and grandma and other idle wax spots is also discouraging tbh
It's feature
Ohh ok thank you!
i believe this also happens in live?
yeah thats a feature to kinda help new players get started! not-quite-one candle per new spirit they find. it encourages them to find all the spirits and gives them a decent starting amount of currency. only applies to base game spirits though, the past seasonal ones wont give any.
I have found these spirits that I believe are limited like the bow tie person. After I relieve them I get the emote and they disappear. Is this intended or can I find them somewhere
Hmm I don't know where that could be, but we could jump in Beta and try searching it together! As testers, it's important for us to look for things ourselves before asking questions and submit any struggles to TGC in #beta-feedback. That way we are helping many Live children that could have the same questions 
Is anyone else having trouble sending messages in chat - i cant send them after typing
Yeah it's delay for me as well
purple spirits are from previous seasons and give only the base level emotes. you will have to wait for them to come back as a traveling spirit to unlock more (hopefully this is what u are referring to) 
Yes! Thanks
Is days of nature ended?i couldn't find the spirit at home
Yep. They do send but it's just super delayed so you don't see them until wayy after. From my experience though, the chat does eventually catch up but idk for how long
Yup, it end, you can't buy cosmetic anymore
i waited in the days of nature area to get the stuff yesterday, and got all of it except the crown that i wanted because it seems so buggy 😭
Where is the "music shop", when i finished the last available quest it said that I can use the shop now
Hmm I don't know where that could be, but we could jump in Beta and try searching it together! As testers, it's important for us to look for things ourselves before asking questions and submit any struggles to TGC in #beta-feedback. That way we are helping many Live children that could have the same questions 
hopefully coral crown gets fixed before live because that was the only 2022 nature item I actually liked enough to wear
(music shop isn't enabled in beta yet. the quest unlocks it but we aren't able to access it yet)
music shop is like fire prophet during prophecy cycle, still missing
Quick question as a new beta tester! Is it better for me to search past bug reports to see if a bug has been already reported or report it again?
report any bugs you encounter! device info is important too and the more reports ont he same bug the more they're able to pinpoint why it's happening (the only ones you don't need to report is if it shows up in #beta-known-issues )
multiple reports means more data on the bug!
#beta-screenshots-videos message > does anyone know if this is a misalignment bug or new emotes might be adding
like the eden crash loop. lots of people knew they were crashing before I figured out it was the coral crown but nobody knew why. it was when I found several people crashing and found the common point that I discovered why we were crashing and was able to tell people to remove the crown to progress to ascent 
More emote in future? 
Been that way since the dawn of the game
A few of the constellations have those star nodes between emotes
it wasn't so obvious in the old constellation.. or i haven been paying much attention nowadays.. ww thank you.
It's a while since we were moths so easy to forget how it is...dawn isn't people's main focus for sure
Does anyone after going to Eden, restart the game, but can't go back to the reborn road from the shrine?
Are you wearing coral crown?
fenger are you crashing? take off coral crown and you should be able to progress. if it's something else please give us more details so we can help troubleshoot
Ohhh i see thank
thank you dark~
Does a purple light appear for anyone else in the sanctuary?
Have you activated the quest from ark?
i think so
The purple light is in vault though, right? You mean that kind of purple light?
No... where am I going, does this purple light appear. (I reset the game and it's already normal)
@thorn arch regarding your bug report a bit ago. if you're still stuck crashing in eden, remove the coral crown before using the return shrine and you can proceed! I'm gonna try to backread bug reports when I can and let people know so yall don't get permanently stuck in stormlock
@random gull I see my friend really wear coral, I will ask her to take off
Hi beta, uhhh
So i'm in home atm and there's this person repeatedly redeeming the performance pass and I cant tell if they're bugged or just hacking. At first i thought they were just a really laggy, delayed player, but they lit me and moved somewhere else and continued their schemes.
Do i report them? 
if you can even light them then yes. if they weren't doing anything wrong then nothing will happen to them but currently nobody is able to "legitimately" buy the pass repeatedly through any bugs
thank you
i got video proof just in case but i'm 99% sure i can't send that here since hacked content isnt allowed ,
justincase yk
i will mention though that rhythm ult hair and bonfire were legitimately obtainable and not wiped by progress wipes. also old lightseekers testers got a discolored umbrella in their closets more recently despite the original one being progress wiped. so if someone has those items they're just old. if they have the correctly colored blue lightseekers umbrella or deer mask that's sketch tho
me who saw a deer mask player the day before
h
How much is the chibi mask costing rn?
I wanna ask a question
I mean we're in beta to test cosmetics right
How would be able to test them if we don't have enough to buy them
They should've kept candle packs
I mean i know we can test spells but it's different maybe there's a bug while buying the cosmetic
Especially that it's a beta app
We don't have to spend the same time doing cr on beta and on live
You do get candles from some iaps, which really helps to boost you early game. Got all hearts for coral crown and a few fire prophet cosmetics solely from iap candles. I'm broke but only because I've spent them now
we're also supposed to play the game regularly and people WONT candle run if they have access to easy free candles. they don't put candle packs in so we have to go about our daily business and save up like we normally would
I couldn't buy coral crown
I tested the spell tho
If they’re not getting enough data then they’ll extend the testing for the item, it’s not necessary for every single beta tester to purchase the item. There’s event items I skipped out on because I couldn’t get enough candles on time
the office cape iap gives you 100+ candles, so if you can get it it's a nice help
and, to be fair we only just got in a few days before nature testing ended. the older testers could test it just fine, even if some of us beta moths can't.
But we're in live it's tiring doing the same thing on both
And lol i don't wanna spend all day on both apps
I wanna report bugs okay but not doing cr too
Yeah but i mean the base of beta is to be able to test
beta isn't a replacement for live so if it's tiring doing the same thing on both apps then you may not want to beta test. or you may wanna budget your time on the apps differently. some people do beta and live on different days of the week for instance. some people just dont test the cosmetics at all and go for patch notes that mention updates to the realms or quests instead
I've been spending more time with afk spots and i might do ubers as well for live. trust me, it'll give you more time for beta testing while still getting you the candles (especially if you can play multiple platforms)
It’s down to personal preference on how to test, there’s all sort of different testing styles in beta, I personally only test what’s necessary & focus less on cosmetics. I’m not supposed to change your mind on the matter if that’s how you see it
Cosmetics are generally the last priority, unless of course they cause major crashing. But that’s usually not something to do with how they look, so yeah…
Ik it's not a replacement for live i love playing in live and that will not change
But i keep my idea that they should have kept candle packs since we're only testing we can enjoy the full game on live
I have 100k candles, it’s really discouraging. We’ve had infinite currency bugs before to tell how it’ll go
if candle packs were kept in beta, we'd be able to exploit that for free. don't think tgc wants that 
live players won't spam buy candle packs either, beta is about testing live mechanics including collecting
The devs want us to go around the realms, this why we don't have candle packs-- gotta catch them bugs while trying to get candles yknow
well since we're only testing we don't actually have to have every last thing either. focus on testing the aspects that you can and are willing to put the work into. beta testing is a lot of work no matter what game you're testing. I'm alpha (even buggier than beta) testing a game and the paid cosmetics there actually cost me IRL money that I will not get back when the game goes live. that's just a thing you have to understand about testing games is that it's a lot of work and it's often work that does you the player no good. we're here to help the devs and we get to decide how much or little we help them really
200k here, i wanna throw up bc of the numbers by now
True but i think we won't be enjoying beta if it's all free
Idk if i expressed what I wanna say well
But all I'm saying is as they simplified the seasonal candles cr it would be great if they simplified the normal cr too so we can test things before they disappear
Maybe not all candle packs but like at least one pack every week
Don’t throw up, I bought this carpet brand new
beta really is not about enjoying it, that's what live gameplay is for
That's whay i said XD
Beta is more enjoyable than live
If you're not enjoying beta just because we can't get candle packs, you can always opt out.
beta has more for the gremlins to break than live. like coral crown crashing eden. (or that one time touching the floor would crash your game. best floor is lava game ever)
They were saying if tgc kept candle packs we will exploit that
But actually not cause we won't be enjoying it if everything is free and thats the point were only here to test in beta we can enjoy in live
Is the "seeing others chat" bug supposed to be fixed? Because I saw some random people chatting in the season area yesterday
if they're on the stage that's intentional
you can get plenty of candles from iaps on their own
i got to 250+ just from iaps, the only reason I'm broke now is my own spending, not because we don't have candle packs or candle runs being difficult
Oh trust me, we’ve had an infinite candle pack purchase bug before, the entire day everyone was just buying packs away for the fun of it, it lagged the servers
It can be seen here: #beta-screenshots-videos message
Even if you won’t personally exploit it, that won’t stop the hundreds others from doing so for the sake of it
oh yeah I've been finding this to be true. i don't know how to explain it but it feels more chill than live? it's fun finding and testing bugs, and the community is nice to hang out with
Can I get a notification for an opening in IOS testing? I registered for Android by accident 🙏🏻
Idk i wasn't when that bug came
But anyways i believe that should make it easier so we don't spend that much time to both apps just to test
Like maybe keeping the candle 3 arrows or like each arrow 10 candles to make it easier
Since they made it easier for seasonal candles they can do smth for normal candles
you already have the beta invites ping role so you will be notified. you just have to wait for new ones. it could be months before another invite wave though
Agree to disagree, feel free to drop this in #beta-feedback
Okay thank you
After having unlimited candle due to the bug i personally think that it takes off the pressure to cr, as someone who doesn't want to cr two times (or cr at all) having candles is very helpful as i can just jump on to check the new stuff out instead of having to cr for it.
I don’t regularly CR, I just run through. I rely on SC conversion
currently living off of social light areas and events + wherever seasonals and quests are
did you guys can see messages chat lives?
this kinda proves the point though that people wouldn't candle run regularly if we had the option to just buy free candles. there's been bugs int he realms that had nothing to do with the season so it is important we have players (even if not everyone) still going through the candle runs like normal. this is why the devs emphasize to play like you normally would every new invite wave. catch the bugs that a normal player would see in their day to day activities in live
I’m having like so much fun running through all the realms for my first play through and now again to collect wl and spirits etc but like ngl I kind of expected more bugs? Just waiting until I start trying to break stuff >:3c
You mean chat delay?
Yup, I can't see anyone’s talk
I completely agree about the beta community being nicer, besides that it's nice to think you're helping a game you like to improve more and more
True, Cr in beta has it's own advantages but if you don't want to do it then you have to forget the fomo. 
When it comes to cosmetics, beta is your chance to go all out and test crazy combos you would never wear in Live. Be adventurous, try something new!
ya if you dont wanna candle run then that is your choice but you also don't get the cosmetics. it's really a trade off of what work are you willing to put into the game. and we are lucky that the IAP items are free. like i mentioned earlier. a game I'm testing made me pay to test cosmetics and I will not be refunded nor will I receive those in the live game. beta testing games just be like that
anyone else getting chat delay?
chat delay always happens when the servers have a lot of people on them. you'll notice it more around reset too but since we just got a wave of fresh testers and an update we just have a lot more people on than usual. current workaround is to chat outside sky in places like discord to ease the server load a little while you play
I suggested smth in feedback to make it easier to cr and having more candles ^^
Cause we love to test cosmetics in beta but we also don't wanna spend all day especially when we already enjoy playing live and have yo cr in live
And i even have more candles in live than on beta
farming all spirits again for beta is proving to be really frustrating 
58/95 spirits relived so far
tgc did add the gifting feature in so friends can buy each other non-AP iaps so that does make it easier for people with no bank account or people who have high taxes/currency conversion to be able to enjoy those in live as well! I'm really happy they added that feature in. I wouldn't really get attached to cosmetics in beta though. they can wipe progress at any time (some of us old testers have been contemplating that they didn't wipe the currency from that bug because a progress wipe may be on the way) and we get no compensation for it.
i go so close to opening the 8-player door 🤏 there were 7 people, but then 4 left
i love having a lot of candles, i dont have to stress about candle running on beta now, i can have enough for when a ts arrives and then go about my day on beta sky socializing or doing things other than candle running !
I personally love being able to give so many hearts.
same! that and ive been spending my candles on spells
Some people act so shocked when they don’t have to send a heart back
i forget or just tell myself ill do it later
Lmao i love how you think @sterile trail
I meant that I specifically tell not to send back & cue the shocked emote spam
thanks, im quite big brained
any particular reason why i've seen so many hackers in just 3 days? i think i've seen around 6-7
Omg me too
Smaller server = more chances to come across hackers
I wish I could give hearts
there has been a kinda downside to it. some people are MEAN if you don't return hearts cuz they just assume everyone's rich. I've had people teleport to me and confront me about it. and it's kinda difficult to explain with language barriers that I didn't get the bug. I don't even want people sending them to me but I need to accept them to clear my constellation and find friends (don't be like me with 3k friends). I wanna be the person saying here's a heart don't return.
Some want to get in beta regardless of breaking ToS or not
there are always gonna be hackers on beta sky tbh, i have many friends with deer mask mainly Chinese buddies
we can put together a group for 8 player, teddy? I haven't gone through yet with this invite wave yet 
sure voi :D
8 player teddy? 
voi was talking to teddy/natalie
Maybe tgc should add an unfriending button
I mean in live too we need it 
i can multiplicate 
lemme just get you a qr
might not answer for the next 30 mins though, pizza's here 
I can get online too, if needed.
I don't think that's gonna be added any time soon
At least with blocking you got the guarantee you won't run into that person by accident without your knowledge
the reason they don't do unfriend is so you can't unfriend someone in a heat of the moment mistake. blocking is reversible. unfriending not so much if you found them by candle. and unfriending would get rid of all progress on the friendship tree you made so if you make up after the small fight you're back to zero with their friendship. I actually do love and appreciate all of my friends it's just very difficult to find some of them sometimes
aw thats quite adorable that they thought about situations like that
Hello guys, I got stuck in Eden, the screen appears white and shut down by itself whenever I return to Eden. What should I do now? 😦
i may be missing something, haven't checked this chat in a while, but make sure you're Not wearing the coral crown
omg, I'm wearing it
hebe take off coral crown and then use the return shrine. the crown is crashing once you hug the kid and keeps crashing you until you take it off. it's safe to put back on once you reach orbit
Well i hate blocking especially that they can know you blocked them so unfriend button would be easier
And ik its not reversible that's the point xD
devs have stated before that unfriending buttons would cause more drama and chaos then that of a block button, i remember a while ago, Ash or one of the devs (cant remember) has stated something about how they've tried to work one out but came to the conclusion to not put one in
has any1 gotten the invisible cape yet
A lot of people
yes
Thank you so much, it works for now 
you may know that but this game is for all audiences. including people who's first language isn't supported by the game so they have to play on a secondary language, and young children who don't understand the concept of permanence. tgc really is trying to prevent bad situations with people who don't undertsand the permanence of that action
i'm working on it now, i have vault done but i need like 600+ more hearts for it :(
how exactly do you get the invisible cape? i cannot seem to find it. Also does any1 know if there will be a limited table soon? idk if i should buy the vault table
you need to finish vault constellation, it's above the elder hair node in orbit
it's only present AFTER you get the vault constellation to 100%, once you have vault done and have the elder hair, then it will show up afterwords
ah ok thanks, should i get the table tho
With the low low price of 999 hearts
i mean, in order to get vault done, you have to buy table, so if you want invisible cape then you need table
we don't know anything about upcoming events past days of nature since we haven't tested further yet so we don't know if there will be special event chat tables. you may wanna get the vault table for now since it could be a while before we get any event tables OR unlock the enchantment quests and buy table spells at the ark shop
how does one even aquire that much hearts if not through the discouraged trading?
it's a fun project! it symbolises the community supporting you for a ridiculous goal that can be taken away at a point 
you can ask friends in game for trades, it's just not allowed here in the server as it can cause uproar and fights amongst members, so you can gladly ask people in game for help
ah i see!
is the invisible cape the only "secret" thing after unlocking 100%? or are there more for others
that's it for now
Invisible cape speedrun 3 days
dark you're the only person crazy enough to do that
teach me to fight social anxiety and it can be done 
i mean with free iaps candles sure became a lot easier! also do we get to keep our accounts? Apple needs new waves every time right? we start with our accountrs or as new moth?
I have no idea, my condolences
where did all of the eden ubers go 
@sterile trail hiiii from Prairie social area! 
think of your beta account as you borrowing an account from tgc, they can take it away at any point. you just get to play beta
right but every new wave do we start witrh a new account?
hello!
i mean, you still have to do basic cr regardless of the free packs that you can test, so it's semi easy
also no! just if you stop playing within the span of the test period on ios, you will lose your invite so best to just stay a little active in game, once you have your account, you don't lose it, unless you lose login info (just like live)
once you lose that invite, if you want back in you need another beta invite from the invite wave
nope, progress carries over until tgc decides to do a progress wipe (which hasn't happened since 2019)
I think we're usually expected to run Eden ourselves in beta, so that we can bug report any new findings.
Oh fair enough
because the competition is quite fierce, if i happen to play everyday but miss an invite do i lose my spot
no, you still have your account, just don't go inactive for during the entire invite that you got (it tells you how many days of testing are left on testflight) once you go inactive and use up all those days shown then you'll lose your invite and will need another, your account doesn't go, just the invite, since they make updates and since invites are 90 days, you'll have plenty of chances to stay active hehe
ah i see
the expiration date on testflight is when the testflight app will expire if the developer doesn't push an update. that actually doesn't mean anything towards individual players
isn’t the Performance ultimate gift hair just the Rhythm ultimate gift hair but more fluffy?
yeah, i dont mind it though. ill be double the owl in live
Kind of, yes.
it's similar but it's much different that you can tell that it isn't owl hair
wait which one is the owl hair lol
owl hair has the ears that have 1 feather each side with a flat pony tail
penguin hair is fluffy, the ears and hair is much fluffier overall, the ponytail also sits lower and is fluffy and not flat
Days of nature guide and boat at home are gone....middle of the day between resets?
chair!
OH I did not know they were supposed to be animals 💀💀 lmao help
I noticed that too! I was wondering why the guide wasn’t there…..
wait they r supposed to be animals LMAO
yea they're based on animals lmao, especially this season as the mask and cape off the quest giver represents a penguin
FR LIKE ?? 💀💀 I DIDNT KNOW THAT AT ALL LMAO 💀
they call the rhythm hair owl hair due to the season of rhythm being all based on birds lmao, and the hair is also on the think spirit who owns an owl mask 
noot noot hair
since when? i dont remember much of a story
bro the season of rhythm had a STORY?? 💀💀 I joined in the middle of that season lmao help I was a moth
you're from the season bro, i just looked at your roles 
i dont remember much of a story tbh
in the middle of it; I was a moth and had no idea what I was doing LMAO
I collected the spirits but didn’t know there was a story to Rhythm 💀 I only remember the first real season story being Enchantment lol
i used to own bonfire :( then china server took it away
it didn't really have a story, it's just the spirit we're all based around birds and fly away on this giant bird at the end
The days of nature guide and sunlounger on the island are gone in sanctuary too?
rip 💀
CHAIR 🪑
days of nature was tested so we don't know end dates of testing, so if things are gone out of beta due to testing for an event, then they're gone and are being prepared for live later, so if you missed out on their stuff and they aren't there, then sorry but they won't be back till next year :(
oh lol 💀 I was a moth so I did not pay attention to any of that lmao
so was Enchanment actually the first Season with a real story then? lol
yeah , the previous ones were just collect the spirit, i played through them but i never got much of a story from them
Belonging had a bit of story, but took a step back with Rhythm
I know ... it's beta...just odd it stopped in the middle of the day I think...but hey that's beta!
Just waiting to see if turtle remains...it should
sorta, it was the first one to have story based quests, belonging had a story of: grandma wants to have dinner and all of her children and grandchildren are around different realms, so you relive the spirits to bring grandma her family to have dinner, that's why the ending cutscene has grandma and all spirits eating lmao
oh :( why’s that?
well they added all these age restrictions based on their identity card and i have a passport soooo
isnt that bc like Rhythm was actually a live redo of the “Winter” season during early beta?
I still remember watching videos of light awaits and seeing the welcome spirit just sitting in the middle of aviary 😔
and that stops you from having a chat bonfire?? 😭😭
brooo the Aviary looked so cool and so did the beta cape textures I kinda miss it lol I watched videos of it too
“Expires in 90 days” is unrelated to access, it’s related to build/app availability, since iOS can downgrade builds. TGC updates regularly so it shouldn’t be an issue either way
yea i cant log on
true true, i just have met a few people here and there that has lost their access to beta due to being inactive so that's why i said it originally 
I'm gonna go there later
androids started off their first sky experience nicely lol with the first full-story-based season being Android’s first season
i wonder why they didnt do that for the other seasons since not everyone has IOS
They took it for granted
I just got somebody to take me, so I’m all good!
wait wouldnt basically the season of rhythm be the first season its basically the winter season but with a different spirit guide
Because the Winter season was in beta, that’s why they had to redo it once it globally released. Seasons like Gratitude, Lightseeker, etc. were already in the global release. It’s a different situation.
It is, my Rhythm pendant appears before my Belonging pendant in the closet
woah i feel speical lmao /j
As an iOS user it was so lonely in the SoR tho lol not a single person spoke English 😭
what sor? :O how no english? isnt beta full of english speakers
i was so lonely during SoG because mainly everyone there spoke chinese, or thai
Weird, my Belonging days were filled with friends & shenanigans (& drama)
oo bring me hehe i can speak both need ppl on friend list 🥲
no 💀 its mainly Chinese people, like on global too
bro the relief I felt when the game got released on Android and a flood of English-speaking players came in

the relief i had felt when i meet someone that isnt from china is astounding because i want to have a diversity of friends iwi
like come on man i wanna meet other people from around the world 
this is coming from someone who only speaks one language so it gets lonely and awkward
am i supposed to be able to interact with my friends in ||pnr|| while they're a ||blue spirit thing|| or is this a.bug
it is what it is :/
Interact in what way?
piggy, hug, hi5
i always felt so lonely in sky back then because the language barreir was awful
I remember when I found someone who actually spoke English during the SoR I was shocked 💀
sameeee i was like OMG AN AMERICAN / SOMEONE WHO SPEAKS ENGLISH OMG BE MY FRIEND
🥲
I don’t think it was ever intended but it’s been in the game for a very long time, so I’m not really sure if it’s report worthy
I haven’t been playing that long + I’m not too social either way
sounds like a hassle though like when I meet English speakers I’m just flailing around at that point like yesss!!!!!!!!
What phrases have you learnt in another language to enjoy beta?
USING A translator in beta is a hassle iwi having to copy and paste every message like aaa
Nickname for Kizuna AI in Chinese when translated is love sauce
how is this lobby full of mandarin speakers 🥲
Yea...literal translation isn't always the best
Our thought go out to the Malaysian speakers right now with beta translator
THIS. My hands are pretty shaky sometimes and having to drag around and copy everything just makes me slip around like a fish
Not to mention some translations are off too
NO! thats japanese! chinese is ai jiang
that and when other people talk it floods the chat board when im trying to reply
I know, that’s why I said “nickname”
Sometimes the in-game chat just does not cooperate at all 
FR
It was funny tho bc when Android released and before purple spirits were a thing I would flex my Rhythm emotes on them

If they responded by doing the same emote back I would be like “:O another iOS player”
hahaha, I've had people follow me like i was a animal in a zoo, mainly chibis and moths
though i never have a problem because i never get this much attention so i dont mind them and its quite adorable and funny too
ive had people and friends tell me in game they were going to rip the feather tips out my hair and make me bald 😭
bro i come into this lobby and its full of 互心么like 阿tmd烦死了
refresh and maybe it will be different
meh they give free hearts heh very nice people
I’ve met… some interesting owl “enjoyers”
If you wear any older ult you’ll definitely be thrown around by the masses like a hot potato 
same XD they are funny interactions though
are we meant to start off with 200 candles in beta
uhh should i be happy or not
free candles from pack prolly
oh good im still rich, i had to check my beta
@sterile trail would you like to be friends O-o
You might be followed around or immediately befriended but I don’t think any of the iOS ults had as much attention as owl hair
sorry i have way to many people added
🥲
Eager to see how penguin hair will perform (lol) once live
I feel like owl hair is definitely one of those that people just really want
That and the small percentage of veterans gatekeeping it beyond Performance’s ult hair
any1 wanna be friends 🥲 i can speak mandarin too plz i beg; no reply 🥲
Patiently waits for gen chat to burn down
I remember when Performance was first released to Beta and there was just. Lots and lots of voices talking about the ult hair…..Very excited for the “random genchat event” where everyone fights to the death over it 
My fingers are ready
I definitely don’t talk in gen because it’s a little too scary for someone like me (it violently explodes every ts Tuesday)
How many text walls can you type in the minute?
Dont let gatekeepers know that bunny has it's ears up like owl hair... 
Question, I saw someone buy a bunch of season candles but I’m not sure how I could do the same, I’ve unlocked all relems but don’t know how to buy these items?
The necessary amount
Guys…..guys……..Flight ult feathers 
WAAoahahahaha
Not possible without modifying the game, against ToS
It's not possible to buy seasonal candles please report them they are hacking
Ohh no, so there isn’t a way to get more candles? And I will if I see them again
to this day i still dunno if there's any way to report someone without friending them first
There is, press where the report icon will be after you lit them
Other than doing cr and quests nope
there is you have to light them
You can! Just light them and click on their friend tree and then click where the report button would be (even if it’s not unlocked)
I think they're asking without lighting them
there is? oh jeez, i've never noticed it in 5 months
Thank you that is very helpful, I will keep doing the daily tasks and report those players. 👍
!reportfaq has a image ⬇️
Here's some info on how to report players in the game: https://bit.ly/ReportFAQ
It said “without friending” though
why is it darkened like it's locked though 
don't ask me why my reading ability disappears at night
ikr
i wish you didnt have to light them to report, since theres times when it hard to get to the person to light them
Oh curses, you’ll be sent to the Netherlands & steamrolled like those forfeit GameBoys
😳
Here's some info on how to report players in the game: https://bit.ly/ReportFAQ
buying candles would be reportable but they also could have been getting the adventure pass? especially if they’re new i think you got like 30 candles along with that
No because they did it several times
Then it's a hacker
ohhhh sorry 😅 that’s definitely not it then
anyone else while trying to use the switches in the theater to change background scenery , not displaying properly? black background or only certain parts
bug probably
can the office krill be summoned in beta?
73/95 spirits relived... so tired 
What does the “back entrance of the music shop” mean? I’m confused 😭
dont worry about it, the music shop doesnt exist yet
wondering if we'll be able to purchase custom music sheets from it
like ones we can save our own music to?
i can't wait to see what said music shop will be like
Thank you for telling me hfbdbdjs
nvm, saw the reply
Good, I was about to write an essay
yes yes i saw 🥲
On TestFlight, it says that the sky beta expires in 87 days. After that do we have to redo the link or do we stay on the beta?
nope, you stay in beta. don't worry about the countdown as it resets every time there's an update. it's just like, an ios thing
Awesome! Thank you!
When I complete all the worlds will I be able to see the season guide?
They should be at home after you open valley door at home
Try go into random map and home again if they didn’t show up yet
They didnt show up
Do I have to complete the valley?
Not sure but I completed valley and off, then they shown up when i start game again
Hi guys
Are there no Chinese?
no, there is
hey did days of nature end in beta? I cant seem to find the spirit guide anywhere 
I ate it 
@void lagoon did you update your game? (In response to your post on #beta-screenshots-videos)
yes
Nvm, I just realised the event ended on reset, the event was extended a few days for new beta players and I remember seeing on Thursday morning it said "2 days remaining"
what really nooooooo
Yepppp nature is now over, not long till days of rainbow then? 
what a shame
i couldn’t manage to get all the items
I managed the IAP items but no coral crown (we can always wait for when it arrives in live
)
aw man now im sad
before i got into the beta i heard that sunbather was walking around the island for the event, but i couldn’t find him at all yesterday? was that a bug or was it because i hadn’t completed eden yet?
Only during turtle time was when he spawned
And due to you not visiting eden
Pretty sure you need to visit eden to unlock seasonal stuff
ah right, that makes sense! thank you :)
why does everyone speak mandarin qwq
There’s a lot of Chinese testers on beta
I hope they fix the timing of the Nature event before it comes to live, if we're not testing it anymore 
slightly painful
Translating to Chinese is easier than translating to Japanese, though 
nono the problem is i can understand mandarin and type a little
I saw a pic in #beta-screenshots-videos they translated Chinese word for moth to munchkins lol
its cute
whenever i type in english though they get so damn mean about it
Do they? So far I haven’t met anyone like that usually because I never get server merges but that’s kinda sad
yes well its their mother language so its supposed to be easy for them but its so difficult and they like hate the english language or smth
😔I can read chinese but am slow at typing it and can only type a bit so I relate
why is the chat translator gone ?
its so sad to be able to understand it when they r talking behind your back about you lmao
Yes

i should’ve checked but i haven’t had time lately. thank you
Is it normal to just not get server merges is beta? It took me a horribly long time just to complete the “sit at a bench with a stranger” quest because I was always alone (even in Prairie lobby). All except one time where I was in Vault honking for help to complete the quest and someone ignored me (I even walked up to them, pointing at the bench). I don’t even want to try to open the door on the first floor to relive the praying spirit, and I don’t want to spend all of my candles on hearts right now to get the chibi mask.
i think it’s because there’s less players in beta. i’m usually in a server by myself too
Yup, normal for it to be a ghost town at this time, activity dies down after events/season is nearing live release/announcements
I assumed it was because of that, though I was just surprised.
Unfortunately, it's normal. I tab out of the game for a few minutes (usually to check discord) and tab back in, that usually passes the time for server merges
Once Performance goes live it’ll really be dead 
I think part of it was also my impatience. The whole situation was stressing me out. It really shouldn’t have, but I’ve been kinda stressed all day. I probably just need to walk away and forget about it.
hope you feel better soon 
I always feel sad when I go to prairie lobby and just wanna chill but then a bunch of random want to friend you and heart trade but I refuse cause I didn’t get candle bug
So does this mean days of nature is over? The sunbather spirit wearing the ocean cape shows up, but the ability to "purchase" the ocean cape does not. You must ping me in order for me to know to respond
I'm a new beta person, if they just ended days of nature, I'm kinda pssed, not gonna lie
when it comes to players who speak a different language, i.. respond in emojis, as the only languages i know are spanish (my native tongue) and english (my second language)
Oh I see our new gameplay engineer wes :0
they only extended days of nature for a little bit for newer players, but i believe all the testing is done for it, since they don't have a certain set of time they need things tested, as they can freely extend and take away days of testing seasons and events so if you missed out, then that's okay, it will more than likely be tested again next year
Sad the boat is gone from home :( I was bingeing on spells with my 100000 candles…lol. Now I gotta go all the way to the ark…oof. The struggle
It'll eventually come come back home sooner than you think hehe
@thick ibex Of course my favorite cape in the whole game is gone, I know beta is for testing but still it probably would have been my most worn cape during exploration
if TGC really wanted to, they could take the days of nature capes away from all beta players if they so wished, as stated by devs, don't get too attached to items in game, so it's okay, it will more than likely make a return for testing next year 
Well, I will still be able to get it in live @spark lance what bug?, share it quickly
just found the best bug EVER in sky. 😂😂
absolutely! and you'll be able to keep it there forever 
@spark lance please elaborate
anyone know when days of bloom starts?
you should take a look in #news for updates on live instead of asking beta channels, but it should start on the 28th
It starts on March 28th
Just reported it, not the best just kidding 🤭. I just found it funny
I wonder what the pride cape is gonna be this year. Last year's became my favorite cape, so I wonder if this year's will beat that one.
can everyone please stop deep call spamming at every single door? flashiness is dangerous to some players and I will not stop to help if I see deep call spam. (I know I'm not the only one who avoids people spamming either). and if you think it's forcing server merging, that's a myth and you got lied to. if you're struggling to open a door then ask in #beta-looking-for-group plenty of people here are happy to come help
on that note please also stop deep call spamming in your memory candles. it is NOT recharging anyone and in eden it makes the rock rain come down harder. and on controller it's near impossible not to click them with how in the way they are placed
poor switch players are gonna have a hard time when these go live with how troll-y people have been with both placement of the candles and content of the videos
you dont get recharged? i do
you sure that's not confirmation bias or the light from the candle not the memory itself
tbh I only do it like 2 times before I noticed the bug but I was concerned and just checked it out
To add onto the deep call spamming at doorways, can people stop doing that while flying with a friend?
standing near any light source including single candles recharges you. friends recharge you. the memory candles haven't recharged me or friends any faster than standing next to a friend or standing next to the candle light does
Unfortunately not everyone is going to see these messages. I'll keep these in mind though!
i hate when someone finds a way to spammmm the call like full blown spam it to the point where your ingame screen goes dark
That annoys me.
no not everyone is but it's enough of a problem that I want people to try to become more conscious of the fact that they're hurting other players in misguided attempts to help
maybe if people see this and tell their friends and they tell their friends it will help make it less of an issue. it's the same emthod that got the "deep call to server merge" rumor started was word of mouth
Me too! I’m like, “Whyyyy? Stop!”
Oh, I've never heard of that rumour! I just deepcall when I really want someone to help me, to recharge a friend on the ground or I wanna yeet some crabs
Since so many people have been asking for Nintendo area ubers, I've found a few bugs there that would have gone unnoticed 
Wait you can still get the switch pack in beta?
Yeah I thought so
That reminds me! I should submit my bug report! I got distracted in Asteroid. Whoops.
No. I have it from the time we were testing it.
no elysian it's just that players who were there last year when we tested it have the capes. I have it if you wanna go (I could have brought you when we finished our cr)
It's been two days and I still can't finish the eden ️☹️☹️
Did you have coral crown on? If so, take it out please
Crashing? Have you tried taking the crown off?
Nah, I figured you couldn't get it anymore. But thought since so many moths were asking for nintendo ubers you could get it in the area
Cause honestly there's really no reason to go there lol
Ohhhh I'm wearing it
I think people just wanna play in the nintendo area LOL. I have the asteroid cape too if people wanna play there as well.
Easy fix! It's a weird bug indeed
I like the Nintendo area. And most people asking me are genuinely interested in just hanging out in there. The music is funky and awesome. 
The music is very enjoyable, I would hang out there more if I could
it specifically happens when you hug the kid and turn to light so something about how the crown renders during that scene makes the game just go NOPE really hard. we've had weirder cosmetic bugs though (that one time a specific outfit would turn your kid into a brown stick on android and crash ios entirely)
Well feel free to ask me since we are friends now. I don't mind ubering lol
Game rendering is a real mystery 
I kinda wanna go to the nintendo area now 🤔
Same
it's been a while
I'd recommend it. Don't stand on top of the pipes though unless you want to exit, I did that like a DUMMY
I wss there to witness that sillyness 
I do have the cape if anyone wants to go. I just don't remember to look in #beta-looking-for-group when I'm active 
hello
I do get recharged and no, it is not a bias. It is different pace between charging through mere candles and through deep honk
Is the moments of bloom in beta over?
@remote rose I saw your bug report in #beta-bugs-android about crashing in Eden. If you're wearing the Coral Crown, that's most likely what's causing the crashing. Unequip it and you should be good to go!
somebody hire me to reply to fixable bugs, I have an addiction
I've been trying to catch them when I can
I figured out that was the cause but ya I'm not good at keeping up with it. just don't want anyone locked in storm lock when there's a workaround while the devs figure out why the coral crown is causing a crash and fix it
Where do you guys get the pretty ocean cape? Or is that over too
I like reading the new bug reports in the chat if I happen to be submitting one, and then I see those, and what am I meant to do? Not help them?!
yes, someone already told me, but thanks! 
isnt deep calling a vital feature of the game to try and get someones attention? 
once. not rapidly
notice how I said spamming. one deep call is "hey I'm over here". multiple is just plain rude even if no photosensitive people were present. there's really no reason to be doing it multiple times back to back incessantly. which is a constant issue
Also, the deep calls in memory candles have actually recharged me
Is it possible to get the spirits from season of flight in Beta? Kinda wanna get the baby manta call again
i do it to get peoples attentions because the server are only like 8 players in an area at once
ive gotten recharged by those as well at one point, but im not sure if it was from the light of them. i can understand the reason of photosensitive people not being able to handle it, but wouldnt they just have to lower their brightness? would normal honking also affect them as well, along with the bell in the home area?
yeah thats what im wondering
lowering brightness isn't the issue. the flash still occurs no matter the screens brightness. the only way for that to not be flashing is screen literally be off. it's a massive change on contrast and when you do it repeatedly and rapidly no amount of dimming the screen will make it any better. what I'm asking is you stop spamming it.
Ugh game stuck the Abby's last task 😭
im only curious about this stuff. maybe you should try making a suggestion for the devs to see so they can have more thought towards people with sensitive eyes and all that. seems like an annoying thing to have to deal with if you have sensitive eyes 
I've been making suggestions about the flashiness in the game since rhythm. for a while the bell towers didn't flash at all and that was likely do to my feedback.
I can tell the deep calls from memory candles do actually recharge my wings, as a huge chunk of my wings get recharged when I play one. Not just a slow recharge, like when you're near a light source.
Also plz send #beta-feedback, especially in regards to controls and candle placement, and as Bale said you should send suggestions to the devs as not everyone is going to just stop deep calling
adapt and overcome, i suppose! 
well my adaption is I will be glitching through doors or straight up leaving instead of staying to help if you're spamming deep call. I refuse to hurt myself for inconsiderate people.
I also am pretty sensitive to the flashing. (I was really happy they changed the bells to small tiny flashes) Yeah deep calls can be rather annoying, especially when spammed in the 8 player elevator.
but I understand the usage of it with the recharge and the candles. It's quite helpful after all, I just will personally avoid those candles
Help button instead
honk
Help button would be neat. Although honking is a pretty big part of the game still
probably a top bar for notification if that area requires people to open door
a "please help me" button like the one for moths needing spirits would be nice but that's probably more a wishlist thing. I specifically came in here to ask beta players to be more considerate. because every single door I went past today on candle run had people standing there spamming the hell out fo deep call.
Honestly it's probably moths just not understanding that there's much less players. Not rly something that can be helped until they play more, and not everyone that spam honks/deep calls is going to read this either
I'd say it's fine to glitch through if it's that bothersome to you
regular honk isn't a problem unless I am standing so close I'm basically touching the other player. and the normal amount of honking /deep call is not an issue. once or twice is not an issue. but people incessantly spamming deep call rapidfire is an issue because I can't move far enough away to not be affected while still staying to help. and some areas that deep call radius is MASSIVE. what I came in to ask was to stop spamming it. and people are defending normal usage not spamming
well, not everyone will be able to read your message, unfortunately. the beta doesnt have a small playerbase, it's kinda big as well, full of people from other countries 
^^^ I'll just repeat this. I'm not expecting everyone to be able to read it. but for the same way that deep call to server merge rumor spread by word of mouth if people who DO read this make an effort to be more conscious and tell their friends and they tell their friends it might make it less of an issue
You might rent a plane with banner "More honk more wait" flying around Home space 

HONK

skybot deep honks 
BRUh
Conclusion: Sky is not for people sensitive to flashing lights
Only a max of 10,000 players on iOS. Android would be around that number also. (For legitimate players not getting the game from unofficial sources) i would say roughly 20,000-40,000 players being a "small" player base, no? Also, wouldn't the only official method to get beta access be through this discord server? So every beta player should have access to this chat. 
we say should but we know its the opposite.... 
I think I've heard ppl spread the invite links to Facebook so? Maybe that's how some ppl r entering
Even if every single beta tester got in through the discord, they could just have easily left after, or never read chat
#beta-known-issues: says automatic translations have been disabled
Me: still seeing automatic translations

yea, just tried in eden.. the deep call still works in shared candles.. just not as friendly for photosensitive peeps
I originally got into beta through YouTube actually. A YouTuber put out the links and I used it then. (don't remember who)
should is the key word.. 
I barely believe I even got into the beta with how quick it usually fills
i enterred beta mainly to see how far i can push the limits of the bugs and see if i can find bugs.. within the bugs. 
Question, do you only get stormlocked foreverly if you're wearing the coral crown?
As far as I remember, yes, which leads me to my next bug report reply: @brazen kite! Your crash in Eden is probably being caused by wearing the coral crown! You should be able to progress if you take it off before using the return shrine 
Oh good, I wasn't able to get it before the event ended so I think I'm more than safe then 
It's easy to fix since you can return to Broken Home by simply exiting the game, giving you a good opportunity to take it off
Eden has been really buggy lately, even in live 
I haven't encountered too many bugs in my own playthroughs, other than the Switch crash a little while ago and mantas being REALLY WEIRD. They keep crashing into things and occasionally getting stuck
The last times I ran eden on my switch the camera gets launched into the clouds after I die to the hail and the only way to get it unstuck is to turn on airplane mode
The Switch was an easy fix for me since I could change to my Android. I feel bad for the people who couldn't though
hello. I am new here. ^^ should we still report the bugs that someone else has been reported? 🤔
Yes, most definitely! Multiple reports may help pinpoint what exact devices and versions are messing up. The only bugs you probably don't need to report are ones that are covered in #beta-known-issues or #beta-announcements
I see. thank you! 🥰
HOWEVER, one exception in #beta-known-issues is that blessing rewards from the new seasonal guide are still erroring >:(
@fierce elm I saw your bug report about crashing in Eden. If you're wearing the coral crown, please take it off, cause that is most likely the thing causing you to crash 
@torn flax the above message may apply to you too!
TGC, please put this dang thing in known issues 
TGC: ok, time to delete coral crown 💀
Omg i found someone spamming seasonal candles and have 12 wings 💀
How? 💀
Utilising an exploit, probably. I also saw someone like that. Don't do it, it's not allowed
funny story of the day lol:
so, i was doing vault, and when i enter the first floor, some players honked at me to help them with the ||4 person levitate door||
the thing is, i hadn't gotten the levitate emote yet cuz there wasn't anyone around when i tried to
so i was just furiously spamming the no emote to tell them i couldn't do it lol
they were annoyed, justifiably so cuz beta players coming by are rare
i lure them over to a bench so we could chat, and told them that i couldn't do the opening cuz i hadn't gotten the emote yet
they were rly understanding lol, saying sorry for honking at me
i get the pain man, i get the pain u-u
so yeh, anecdote of the day i supposed
rly gotta get the levitate emote soon lol
📱iOS/Android: Learn about the sign-up process and how to get notified when invites happen in #beta-faq!

Per the #rules, we aren't supposed to talk about people breaking the TOS to not bring attention to it. (90% of the time, that's why those players break rules; for attention) please just report the player and move on. No point in bringing it up in the discord.
edit: Oops, wrong quote, sorry. It was for @limber arrow
oh lol, dw
mmmmmm
How does the coral crown manage to have such great power? 🤔
Coral Crown is the Healing Flower 2.0 
When I was a moth (in live) there were 3 people at that door honking and I didn’t have the emote (but I also didn’t know that door required an emote), so I went up expecting to help and panicked because I realized I couldn’t. While panicking, I teleported home because I didn’t know what to do as they continued to spam honk. I felt so bad 😭
ooof
I'd felt the same tbh lol
One mechanic in this game that should be ironed out, imo. It misleads more seasoned players to assume the new player who doesn't have levitate is just being a jerk when in reality, they cannot help even though they want to. It causes unneeded negative emotions for a misunderstanding.
While I get why they designed those two four player doors the way they are, it still isn't a good design in practice due to the above issue.
Rendering is a mystery, basically
Agreed! And I had a decent amount of wedges too since I had learned about wl locations before learning about all spirit locations (enough wedges to where it might look like I knew what I was doing and was just being rude). I often think about that moment. I used to be embarrassed, though now I just laugh it off. I mean, it wasn’t really my fault. I had no way of helping and also didn’t really have a good way to express that I couldn’t help 
I think a good way to fix this is to have some kind of message indicating to other players that someone in the area of the puzzle doesn't have the emote.
Unless someone where to glitch in right in front of me and 2 other people at that door while we obviously need help, I don’t like to assume people not helping at that door is out of rudeness. Some people just cannot help, and that’s okay. I hope other people realize that as well.
I've done this before, but they weren't there when I went in. So I sorta just awkwardly go back home 
i usually dun help when enough players.. if they wanna wait with me it is fine.. if they wanna glitch in that is also fine... it is not like the server will pop extra 1 player at the door for me like magic.. i only hate the ones when we have 3+1 person but u dun wanna help
Don’t worry, I understand that completely! That has happened to me before too. I’m referring to people who glitch in right in front of you and 2 other people when you only needed one more person help

Glitching in and then server merging happens, and I cannot blame whoever glitched in because it’s not like they knew they’d server merge 
I’ve left people trying to open doors before mostly because I was trying to do a cr within a certain amount of time and didn’t want to slow down
The only time I don't help someone at a door is the previously mentioned issue where people still think deep call spam causes server merges. I'll straight up
them and chibi fall in front of them for doing it.
The weirdest thing i saw with honk spamming is in 8 player elevator. Even this area is quite small and all people is right in front of them, they keep honk 
Ah
You shouldnt refuse to help someone simply because they dont know that deep calling doesnt cause server merge
Especially if it's a 2 player door
I usually deep call at 4 player doors to let other people in the server know that I want help. I dont expect a merge, I do it as a call for help. As it is intended. Honking is how you ask for help, so by deliberately not helping someone for deep calling that's like
Not helping someone reach something off the shelf cause they're short
A single deep call is fine. Spamming it is excessive and gives my SO migraines, so yes, i will be a jerk and chibi fall in front of you for giving my partner a migraine due to your ignorance of others' handicaps.
Migrane due to sound or due to the visual imagery of the deep call?
Cause you can just simply
Turn your volume down
The flashing
Ok I understand that then, still no need to be rude, apologize with a bow then glitch in
Pls Yeti
One question, fixed the chat error right? . _.
Hmmm... Todays chat seems to be nice. Without lag or delay
Where we could see everyones chat?
I believe so, but if it's still happening to you then make sure to report
Okay
I think... Allanzinho was talking about the chat error of the lag/delay of mins till the chat start working
Oh, another one now question
Oops my bad
In game chat or this one
Sorry my brain isnt working amazing right now
Jsjsjsjsjsj, saaameee. It's 6:10 of the morning for me rn, and imma gonna sleep now-
pls it's only 3pm here 
Sheeesh. Well... Problems of play beta and live at the same time, xD
How I'm new to the beta, Do I have to add a name to my profile? (The name below the profile)
Errr... Ya don't had to, I think-
I I don't know explain. _.
It's oke, jqjsjs
It iS 1 AM.
Example : I played in the season of the little prince and I have in my profile showing this(The name of the season)
Who plays in the beta has something special that shows this too?. _.
I am tired. But I need to get reset
for items
You can get it in #roles
Misunderstood, sorry
Heya quick question, is anyone else having the issue where you dont bend down to melt the plant? Ive seen it happen in GW mostly. But it happens in forest sometimes too-
It randomly happens too, like.. ill just be walking along. One plant is normal then next minute all the plants i struggle for awhile unti lit randomly works again
This issue got worse they introduced the turtle
Poooh boi. Here i was thinking it might be my internet, (australian things)
Thats another thing on my list of things to report tonight when i sit down to do so]
My game keeps crashing when I try to do eden 
if you're wearing the coral crown then take it off before trying to go back to eden, that should resolve the crashing issue (from what i've seen other people say)
Oooh ok thank you so much
Yeah, it’s the coral crown that seems to do it.
Make sure to report it when it happens too 
Is there a mod I can speak to/direct message?
you can in #contact-the-mods
That's also what I thought at first! But then I knew it wasn't when my Chinese friend also mentioned it
Thank you for the response. I'll consider. Hopefully even I wear it or not, crash won't happen again
Ty
@spark lance I saw your bug report about Eden crashing. If you're wearing the coral crown, that's what making you crash. You may continue normally if you take it off before returning to Orbit
(It's a weird crash, I know. I hope this helps though!)
Hi, can I ask some questions? First of all, I am beta qualified, and I can enter the game normally. However, I couldn't interact properly, I couldn't see other players, I couldn't light candles, etc. Every time I tried to light the candle, I was prompted "Game data is corrupted, please uninstall and reinstall". I'm sure it's not because my network is bad.
Please make sure you're not using anything that modifies your packet data. (Proxy, Virtual Private Network, firewall rules, an ALG setting in the router, etc)
Yes, I'm sure not.
Only other option is to report it as a bug and hopefully TGC can fix it in a future app update or in the back end.
But I can't play the game properly now, what should I do?
Thank you very much, the game worked again when I wasn't wearing Orbit.
Yeah- i was so confused at first 
The only other option is to report it as a bug and hope the issue gets fixed in the future. If you made sure nothing network wise is causing the issue and already reinstalled beta from the play store/TestFlight, all you can do is wait for a fix.
OK, thanks.
Tried and it worked thanks
just went to eden, so while finding this barrier to the wl, i met a stranger and they somehow found it
but instead i somehow found barrier to the pnr itself without even asking me if i want to go
I'm glad I could help you all! 
Is....
Speaking of helping, @wooden pine! Your game may be crashing at Orbit due to wearing the coral crown! If you take it off before returning to Orbit, you should be able to play normally! You can put it back on when you return to Home :3
The chat error is happening to me and my friend . _. How do I report the error? It's my first time :/
Does anyone know why the season guide for the next season has this
on they're Cape?
You press the reaction icon at the bottom of either #beta-bugs-android or #beta-bugs-ios. However, that bug will fix itself. It's more likely to happen around reset when most people are playing, making the server chat lag
The symbol that represents how many wing buffs you have.
Does it? I never noticed! It may be either a beta oddity or apart of the design
Maybe.
But it looks exactly like the symbol(default) on our capes.
I thought it was going to be something related to the lore.
But since it's in the beta version, I can't be sure.
Okay, thank you 
I'm so happy.
all spirits with capes have cape stars now 
Thank you (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*.✧
Is season of performance ok? bc i felt like quiting At performance
That's for you to decide, lok up beta vids on yt
Can we access music shop yet?
after the fourth quest
Not in the game yet... Hopefully soon !
Personally, I love performance and the little area they have. Especially when you walk in and people are making their own little play lmao
Question: why's the normal DoN guide nowhere to be found? 
Because don is over
it is? then why're the IAP guide and the turtle still roaming around?
not sure about the guide but i do like following the turtle even though event has ended.. just like geyser addition
man, i had just finished saving up the for the coral crown yesterday too 
I want to know the location of the season candle

ou sorry
I have a question. Is it possible to gift the pass from season of performance to my live friend??
nope
beta and live are two separate apps
you can gift them the pass after the season comes to live though
So when it comes to live I will be able to friend them aswell and play together or just give the pass?
while playing in the beta app you can't interact with anything in live whatsoever, same from live to beta
i don't quite understand what you want but 😭 if you're friends with the person in live you can gift them a pass (if you've been friends with them for 3 or more days) and play with them, but once again, beta and live are two different things
So from beta I can't give the pass to live even if the season is in live?
of course not, that'd be pretty unfair 
Lol I wish I can give my 10k AP to someone 
hi! is anyone else having an issue with sending messages? im trying to send messages to talk to my friend but they arent appearing, neither are theirs TwT
Yup, everyone. There's a lot of chat delay
ah alright thank you
Hi I'm new with beta, i just saw someone get lots of seasonal candles at once , but my shop is empty, can anyone tell why my shop is empty?
I just saw a friend with stuff that they shouldn't be able to have because they joined beta November last year.
They were probably just claiming their seasonal candles, in beta we can get 4 sc each realm
Getting ap for first time will gift u bunch of seasonal candle
Although if u saw a people buying several ap its hacker
But we can forge 20 seasonal candle a day so try to understand which one is forge or not by looking red blessing
The claim gone for like 10secs, and my shop being empty is normal?
What stuff? You might report them if you think that
If there's not an event ongoing yeah, you need to reach valley to be able to buy the ap
They had the Cape from season of the little prince, the scarf one. And a rainbow beanie
Are you sure they didn't just join earlier?
I would suggest to report anyways. If they didn't do anything bad nothing will happen to them
Nope I know them and they got in November, if they where in early I think they wouldn't have told me
i seem to be stuck in eden now.. the game crashes at the rebirth scene
there's this bug ongoing last time, a past iap item came at the same time season of abyss bugs and some player experience it
In November we had an IAP bug. Most players received all past IAP items in their closet.
Take off the coral crown if you're using it
Oh ok thank you
thanks 🙏
Why the coral crown make the game crash in eden? 
Welcome to Beta! The place where random bugs appear and our job is to report them in #report-a-live-bug
Ok I haven't really seen any bugs but I'll just have to play alot more and keep my eyes and ears out.
I have been flying around all over the place getting wl, spirits and candles meeting people along the way.
I must say every one is very nice and supportive
hey guys- just wondering, are the candles in fire trial intentionally black or is that bugged? i was trying to solo through the second stage and i just couldn't because i couldn't see the candles at all ;-;
if it's intentional then oh god why did they make fire trial worse than it already was T-T
This bug is also in live lol
F ;-;
Wait what! I thought it was just in beta. Well good thing I didn't do fire today with my friend in live
oh! i was checking why i am crashing at eden and if someone else is having issue… so, it’s because coral crow!! hahhaha
that’s why i love beta! thnx tho.
Going to report lol
use your deepcall. doesn't show you every candle, but it's pretty helpful
what
I would avoid using deep call excessively unless you are completely alone, since it can be extremely triggering if you are photosensitive or even if you don’t suffer from that at all.
I can’t do fire trial without getting a headache from it when strangers keep spamming. even when I don’t usually suffer a lot from flashiness
@thorny portal concerning what you posted in screenshots, I think you need to meditate at the summit in vault - the door should be open after that
Ohhh thank you, I think I did forget to do that 
Is anyone still experiencing chat delay 
yeah
Guys, I have a question: when you join the beta, are you beta "forever" or do you have a time limit for new betas to enter?
📱iOS/Android: Learn about the sign-up process and how to get notified when invites happen in #beta-faq!
Switch: The Switch Beta testing period has ended with Live launch. All future content testing will be conducted on Mobile only.
for iOS, will lose tester status when deemed inactive. for Android, will not lose status unless voluntarily stop the program.
i don't have a time limit (android) 
I'm IOS and on testflight it's saying it expires in 87 days but I'm literally spending more time on the beta than on my live
there will be updates prior to the deadline indicated by testflight, so as long as you participate in the test each time there is an update, you should be fine. taking a break from time to time is also recommended, so there is no need to be too nervous. 
Random question
is the move control different in live and beta? I'm talking about sensitivity
yeah I noticed that too! I wonder where are we supposed to comment that type of small details since I don't think high sensitivity counts as bug 
there was some discussion of turning and other control sensitivity changes during 0.16.5, but I don't know if those have been continued
it's like a work in progress but got frozen and now we are stuck in it¿
Ooh i see i think it would be nice if they implement it to live imo the high sensitivity is nicer than the current live one 
I actually find it a bit uncomfortable, I am unable to fly the way I want on beta, we all have different tastes 
(hi daka)
what if a uhh toggle? slider thing?
(i can leave feedback abt it dw)
Is that so? I haven't felt any change in the flying controls.
Then again, I haven't played Live in a while.
wdym boi¿
I was thinking about sensitivity slider on settings too but idk if it'd be hard to implement 
yknow the volume sliders in options? or hell, the motion control sensitivity thing in splatoon 1/2 
something like that for sensitivity
oh and yeah, it could be too hard
and in the sensitivity thing, I'm used to the live one so when spinning or when trying to land I always end up further than I expect to
I'm a flight lover i swear I feel so gracious when flying in live, in beta seems a bit out of control 😭
I was wondering why i bump into everything 
My ipad is super laggy at times (maybe because it's years old), so i really like the sensitivity in beta
gonna test out beta sensitivity- you guys are crazy detailed noticing that
I noticed because im flying like i was blindfolded and im running really weird
I notice the small things in games all the time & can spend hours staring at them 
(just like i did with the texture on assembly's ult cape)
AND YES GOLLY LIKE THE SPLATOON SLIDERS
maybe it's a bit too much to ask for tgc but we all have different tastes on sensitivity, maybe it could be a good go (or yk white/black cape tier 2 2.0)
I don't notice the difference but I play different devices for live and beta. So I have no idea the sensitivity
I wish i could change my ingame language without changing my phones language 
That's another thing to put in #beta-feedback
And maybe #live-feedback too
As someone who plays on android and cr often on live and lags from time to time, yeah you could say i really felt the difference 
as an average splatoon enjoyer i may say that yes sensitivity is a huge part in the game experience
So that's why i felt it smoother in beta lmaO
I spend hours on my splatoon account trying to fight sensitivity 
But in beta i bonk everything that doesnt run away
Guys is it possible in beta to have 12 wedges?
Because I just saw that a youtuber making sky beta content has 12 wedges in their cape.
Better report the video
But will reporting the video affect them much? Because it's inside the gameplay, not their video. Their video is perfectly fine I guess?
Mind dming me their name? I wanna make sure I'm not subscribed to them
The video itself is not the issue, true, but they're still playing the game doing things against ToS, so you got to report it
But then we have to report them through in game I think?
You can send the video to #contact-the-mods
we can't. reporting the video is all we can do, unless we meet them ingame by coincidence
Ohh what will happen if I send the video there?
if it's youtube they can't do much about it
Technically it doesn't break yt ToS so i don't think anything will happen to them 
The mods will be able to show it to the devs. Then the devs will handle it from there
dunno what that entails, but oh well
Yes I think the same too.
it's worth a try i think
could you send me the vid so i can report it?
Their channel will probably be fine if that's what you're worried about
apparently it's a more famous youtuber too 💀 luci, #contact-the-mods won't do much, since it only handles:
- content that breaks server rules (including DMs from strangers)
- abusive or disrespectful behavior in channels or DMs from other members
- problems with Skybot bug reporting or other bot difficulties
- server suggestions and feedback
- other discord-related nonsense
i don't think there's much that we can do here 
except maybe calling them out on social media idk
Basically #contact-the-mods is only for discord related problems 
Do you mind dm-ing me the youtuber by any chance btw 
Can i- can i get it too pls
this person just bought season candles and 3 spells for 4 minutes straight :O how does one do that
We can't, kindly report them
how-
but they wont light me up
that happens, hackers aren't dumb
don't give them attention
damn hackers r very powerful lmao
Quick question, is it normal that the turtle in the shoulder look very slim? Like I remember at first it was in normal shape and now it look kinda wierd, sorry I dont know how to explain it well-
does anyone know if they can be taken and how to take the nintendo cape?
I think its only for nintendo but Im not sure
But nintendo doesn’t have beta
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who saw people just standing there for minutes on end getting loads and loads of candles. I got a video of it and was going to report it to a mod last night but I read that they only handle discord servers issues. I also read that we’re not to give hackers attention, so I gave up trying to report the issue.
The Nintendo pack was available in Beta, but it is no longer.
No idea then sorry
Sad, thank you 🙏🏻
I’m probably late but hacked videos are taken down by copyright claims, it’s still worth reporting to devs
It's a bit disgruntling that hackers won't have any consequences if we can't report them in-game tho 
Sometimes I find I’m unable to tap on people I see claiming loads of seasonal candles- I know how to report without lighting, but I can’t even tap on them to open the tree in the first place

Agreed. This was my first time encountering a hacker and seeing them in action. So I quickly grabbed a recording of them and was going to report it but like I said, after doing some reading I gave up. Too bad there isn’t a way to repot them in game.
the free heart in eden, is it not availave in beta?? ive never claimed it before just noticing now
Why doesn't the shellfish appear after all the hard work of burning the DARKNESS TREE all by myself?
Smells fishy to me ;) i would report it.
Am i the only one waiting a whole hour for 8 players door and there is no one
have you already collected the large shell once today? I think it only appears once per reset but I could be wrong
Can I report a bug of the turtle in the shoulder in Beta-Feeback?
8 player door in beta is almost impossible to complete without a group, or asking for help - it is not something abnormal. there's just not enough active players for it to be viable anytime of the day. at around 6 hours and 45 mins after reset there used to be an initiative for testers to meet at the elevator every day, but I don't know if people still go/know about it
Oh i see thanks
Only time you'll truly have success with 8 player door is when new players have access to beta invite waves
Very basic newbie question but I just wanna make sure that eden has resetted today?
But players don't even cr there?
you can use the !er command in DMs with skybot for the exact countdown if you are ever unsure 
when i first joined last year, i had gotten the emote luckily enough due to brand new players, so just cause no one cr's there doesn't mean there is a chance to get the emote, it's extremely rare but still possible in beta
Isn't there an unofficial meet up every 6hours 45 after reset each day to get people up the elevator?
Or just oob it for the star
How do you usually cr in beta
there's no official time people truly go to it, a lot of times people just try to oob to get the wing if needed but it's very unlikely to find people in the spot doing day to day cr
I usually just get seasonal candles in all realms, do dailies and grab the wax along the way, if a ts i want is coming in beta then sure i'll put more effort into cr but a lot of times, me personally, i just grab seasonal and get off after
I guess I was greedy. I had already eaten one shellfish today🤤One a day, I learned!
thank you😊
the overall playerbase that does cr is a lot less than in live, so even when we don't have bugs that make tons of players have thousands of candles there is a good chance of waiting more than an hour for the elevator. thus, almost no one wants to go there and wait. it's a self-fulfilling prophecy almost
players know it can take forever to wait, so they don't go there. when less people visit, it takes even longer to wait
before abyss ended in beta and I became exponentially rich I would usually cr around 15 candles per day if I felt up to it. mind you, I didn't do quests or collect sc since I had 100k+ seasonals at that point. now that we have need to do quests and collect sc I don't feel motivated to candle run at all past that point. I go to eden every week, so I move mostly on the basis of wl. to each their own of what they feel is a low enough effort where you won't get burnt out of balancing live + beta
meanwhile me with 2 candles and i cant even afford to gift my friends
i mean you're a brand new player right? so it's okay if you can't gift back right now, just collect as many seasonal as you can to get rich fast
I'm sure you're not alone anymore - plenty of my friends either weren't online to experience the candle bug before conversion hit and/or have spent all their candles already
I've been anticipating a reset back down to 100-200 candles since abyss ended, and would welcome it with open arms at this point
why seasonal
they convert at the very end of the season, so if you have 500 seasonal saved for example, now you'll have 500 regular candles to spend for testing
yea
i spent 75 on a pair of pants on my 3rd day T-T
while we've got a conversion each testing season, it isn't guaranteed - with now much the economy has been through in the past months I wouldn't even be surprised if seasonals were reset with regular candles once we get there
so seasonal candles are easier to get than regular? i mean there are 44 days left in the season! why would that be getting rich fast
25x44=1100**
you can get 25 seasonals per day in beta! the largest conversion we've got so far was 1700+ during beta dreams
edit: well, largest collected conversion, the 200k bugged seasonals conversion after abyss is another ballpark
wiat 25 seasonal candles per day damn
oml my multiplication today - and yes that’s how seasonals work in beta. we have accelerated earnings for the purpose of testing seasonal items
ah but i kinda wanna spend some on the season too
you finish the season first of course, you gotta test it
the season can be finished with like 400 candles so you'll have about 700 at the end of the season if you collect everyday @bold wagon
ooh alright
Where i can report a bug?

will turtle event remain after days of nature?
geyser, then cr forest then grandma and finally comeback to sanctuary and finally dailies my new cr sistem
Have beta chat delays been occurring for so long? Like 80% of the time can't text anything
I meant can text but the msg won't be sent out
Me too
is a bug i guess
@pseudo quail I see I thought they did it on purpose since it's beta
No!!
beta chat should work normally
it's because of the new testers being active
hopefully they'll find a way to fix it soon
it's even worse at reset/in popular areas
Where's the friends list on the beta? I found where to add friends but not where the friends actually show up once you add them :(
Reminder that as testers, we should try looking for things in Beta ourselves when possible! If you are still struggling to find something, please remember to submit it in #beta-feedback as that feedback is very valuable for TGC and can help many players in Live 
do you have trouble finding the whole friends list? or just the friends you added recently?
the friend constellation opens from one merged-together constellation in beta - there's only one button on the constellation table in home. furthermore, if you have not progressed past valley, the friend constellation will be inaccessible overall
I've been through all the realms + Eden, and I've found the button for the sending friend QRs and stuff, but the person I sent a QR code says the accepted it and I can't actually find the friends list?
click on the constellation button - the one misty mentioned - then above the constellations you should find an arrow that points up, that's where your friends are
there are multiple pages, you can scroll or use the arrows to search
if you still can't find them try restarting the app
I ate it 
Are you sure they accepted it
you would’ve been notified in game when they did
They said they'll try to accept it again, maybe they thought they did the first time? I'll check
beta qrs are very stupid
Maddening 
True, links never work for me even tho people say they work for them so I always have to bring it up on another device to scan it with the camera 
to accept a beta qr:
- open link in an external browser like safari or chrome
- when you get to the page showing a qr, scroll as far up as you can on the page
- click the button that says "open in sky beta"
- if you simply click on the qr image, it will take you to live
It opens beta for me but nothing happens after that 
Is it just me or do the Sanctuary Islands seem... Dimmer? I could've sworn the grass was greener.
fair, sometimes it's just broken overall
usually if that happens I either have to press the start button (so that game is logged in, in the background) and then try the "open in beta" button again, or just restart both sky + browser and try above as well. I hate scanning images, so I just do everything to avoid it 💀
if you were there until after the sunset ends, the lighting is sometimes different from normal 👀
I really don’t mind the scanning part since it’s not like I even get beta qrs that often or even at all anyways 
Did someone call the fun police??
@flat imp @lilac solstice @glass spoke sorry for the cold pings, just wanted to clarify something that was asked earlier in this chat: If you’d like to report any safety issues that directly concern the game or TGC (for example, suspected hacking activity posted in social media), you can DM the TGC staff member Zahlya about it 
We try to flag any issues like that when they end up in our #contact-the-mods channel, but taking it directly with them is best!
hi mirian!! i totally forgot about zahlya's existence oh my
i'll dm them right away, thank you!
Ohhh thank You! I'll contact them!
My beta won’t work. I’m new to the beta and it just won’t work! I keep pressing update and it starts to download then stops! 😭😭😭
How much storage space do you have available?
126.8gb out of 128gb 🥲 @radiant drum
Oh, that's not enough. You need at least 3 Gb free space.
That would be the reason. Please keep about 3Gb free to install updates for Sky Beta.
But I deleted so much already!
You're really living on the edge there. Maybe look into deleting some photos/videos or apps that take up too much space.
Ah thank you Mirian, I had heard someone say use contact the mods before, and I wasn't sure where else it could go. So thank you for clearing that up 
I’ve been doing that 😭😭😭 so sad. I gotta find more to delete I guess 😔
iOS or Android ?
iOS 🍎 . I used to use google photos but now u gotta pay for the stuff. 🥲
I'd look through your settings on your phone. You can find app settings and see which ones are taking up the most space. That way you can decide if they're useful or not
LMAO! I HAVE A MESSAGE THAT TAKES UP 6GB 🤣🤣🤣
Me but it takes up 10+ gb but I don’t have the heart to delete it
My photos take up about 80gb of my storage 🥲😅 so many Sky pictures
I thought I was bad with 55gb of sky photos 
PFFFT! It’s also irl photos… buuuut… it’s mostly sky photos lmao
Someone else noticed how amazing the quality of the game is
My crispy iPad Pro photos 
You must have a lot in your google photos if it’s asking you to pay. It’s still free (for me) 
Heh. Yeah………… I have like 10 years worth of photos in there
Mine is also full (it’s only 15gb of free space) but I beat the system by using another email for more 
Hello chat!
Just came to ask something
I tried to do eden this afternoon and it doesn't let me through the part where you hug the light kid (it crashes)
It happened to someone else too?
Okay, you’re gonna have to start putting some photos on a computer or polarize them or something. You’re killing your phone 😂
Are you wearing the coral crown?
Yeah why?
That’s what’s causing you to crash, I’d take it off and try again
There's bug right now with it in eden. go home,take it off and return shrine to continue in eden
Thank you so much
Now I'm not causing more trouble here and go try it again
No trouble..good luck!
But anyone get the cover of the event, not received the covers? A friend of mine already picked up but at the was there for him to wear the cape.(The cover Does not appear At his time instead of using the cover)
Ooo I had the same problem, imma try it now
I steady have in the past lmao. Poor me 🤣🤣🤣
Hello! i’m new to beta, why can’t i buy the white candles? i already unlocked Eden 😭
There are no candle packs in beta. Please read #beta-faq
WHOOOO I GOT IT! IT WORKS! MY BETA WORKS! 🥳🥳🥳
H O W
Do I have to reach a certain point in the game to light my friends' candles? I've passed forest and the button is grayed out.
Are other people (1) missing the days of nature guide completely and (2) chill sunbather doesn’t offer any items?
Can't get coral for head accessories anymore?
days of nature testing has finished for now
Rip
how do u get to the days of bloom stuff?
Download old builds I think
oh... I got rid of the coral! Thank you
days of bloom testing has finished in beta, you can't get it anymore
is eden broken again for beta?
should have asked that =before= i entered
YES. The coral crown can't render in the initial rebirth scene, making the game crash
RIP my wee me. may you rise again to test another build
o ok
It's easily fixed by taking the crown off for rebirth, but not many people are realising that's the issue. So my new hobby has been telling people who send in crash reports about Eden that they should take it off
tyvm skyla. my 10% brain would have never figured that out today
😂🤦🏼♀️
I have another hobby too, totally unrelated. I'm meeting a lot of people who speak Chinese, and they don't translate their name to English, so I've been excitedly offering them English names with translation 
I sort of wish I could just react "me too!" to others' bug reports
sort of always asked questions but how minor of a bug is usually encouraged to be reported? like i know things that causes crashes or similar stuff should be but what about abnormalities on building or stuff like that? it doesnt affect your play tho
I do too. The Discord Testers server has a bug report system similar to this one, except you can attach a note to other people's bug reports. "Bug can be replicated on (this device)" or "Bug cannot be replicated on (this device)"
Anything reported, even minor, will help the game strive closer to perfection!
One problem with this suggestion is that Sky has a variety of compatible devices and platforms, that perform and experience bugs in varying ways. Separate bug reports, even if it’s about the same issue, ensure players are submitting all relevant information for the devs to identify those problems 
A more complex note system like Skyla mentioned maybe could work (though I have my own concerns on how it would be used in practice)- if you have any suggestions/feedback on the bug reporting process you can always send them to #contact-the-mods!
It would have it's downfalls with some people having conflicting information, but that would be aided by having people being able to attach Additional Notes too.
Another downfall would be that not everyone reads existing bug reports, so duplicates would still exist. Discord Testers are fairly rigorous on preventing duplicate reports, unlike here
Oh I should have probably explained what they're testing. It's bug reports for Discord, in Discord! Both the versions of Discord we're using right now and the pre-releases like Canary
does beta have geyser and grandma
Yes!
Has anyone tried to do the fire trial with glitches? Since spasm and spiral are gone, we couldn’t pass it
oof not really
no glitches i know of, but i think kakdamba has a good shortcut route tutorial on yt
I know a few places that you can jump up onto, but otherwise, I will do it completely vanilla.
Same 
Hi, i just realize that turtle always appear even without Sunset 
i know of the first/second floor shortcut but i can only actually do the third floor one aha. i do enjoy blind trial of fire at times, so ive probably done it more than someone usually would
guys?
the turtle event begins five minutes after grandma’s dinner ends. the next one is in 14 minutes :>
I said "where" not "what time"
Oh wait :o when did spiral get patched in beta?
ops, that’s my mistake. i’m sorry! 
it's oki
Turtle appear in Sanctuary coral reef or swim around islands near that reef
ah oki, thanks
It would be simple if we just had a legitimate bug reporting software to use, like JIRA... Just sayin, 
baby's first beta server errors
oh its bad internet epic
A solution for crash in sky?
Question, what's this eden oob people are on about in beta? Just saw screenshot channel and was really confused.. anyone able to help/explain? 
oh, is every spiral method patched? i know of the piggyback + triangle thing being patched, but i don't recall handhold + piggyback spiral being patched. i could be mistaken though, i haven't unlocked piggyback with anyone
I just tried handhold piggyback and it didn't work, just put my friend on my head normally. Not sure of any other methods so far
A few hours ago I went to Eden and when I went to hug the child of light to be able to advance to the other maps, the screen immediately froze
Take off the crown. It crashes in the dark room when you hug the child.
Take off the coral crown
I'm not sure of all the various routes people take, but there are ways people go out of bounds to get up to the pnr in eden so they don't have to walk up the path with the wind and the rocks
aw man 
would that have been a timing thing or were there multiple attempts?
If they're on ab the normal shortcut then that's something I already know lol 
Multiple attempts 😔 we use spiral a lot in live too so I'm almost certain we're doing it right. Only difference from our live selves and beta selves is height
I’m afraid that big of a change suggestion isn’t up to me to comment on
But #contact-the-mods 
True, it is a big change, but it is one bigger gaming companies use in their beta programs and sometimes live programs. A good example is Mojang's bug tracker uses JIRA.
Also musical spiral did not work 
aw, well there goes the usual air trial shortcut i do with friends..
anyone know if the shortcut for flying behind the trial meditation would still work though? 
Damn they took 2 of the 3 piggyback bugs, will 🚀 be the next

This might be a silly question but if you go to the office in beta can you get the blue cape for free?
Rocket currently doesn't work for me most of the time anyway
crashes both our games 7 tries out of 10
Thank you !
Wait hold up. Spiral got nerfed????
i can't test the trials shortcuts myself 😂 i haven't been bothered with them yet
I don’t have any beta friends to test this with. My only friend with both beta and live has too many friends in their constellation, and they crash if they get another request
Afaik on live, there is a bug with multiple area transitions where your character will start jumping, or facing a direction he wasnt before. So the shortcuts are currently kinda kicking you out of the end of the trials, im gonna check this in beta in a bit
oh yeah, I've had so many times where i did the air trial shortcut and slid right off the edge in live. at least landing higher up in the trial is better than suffering through everything
I know a foolproof way to do the spiral trick in both air and fire, but if it’s getting nerfed I guess I’m not going to do the trials anymore XD
i kinda enjoy doing fire, but if all air shortcuts get nerfed guess i'll just uber ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I'd love if someone would explain the trick you're talking about :o I've only ever used spiral for trials (feel free to dm me)
i'm a bit tempted to get up to earth trial just to check if the wall jumping shortcut was nerfed
So basically, spiral is when you offer piggyback and someone else offers hand while close together, and press the piggyback icon without moving. The person who was offered the hand takes the hand, and both players rise into the air, a lot slower than piggyback rocket
Haha I meant the one with the "flying behind the trial meditation"
aw, i'm going to have to find the ice cream mountain oob in live before this update comes to it, since the rocket doesn't work well for it anymore
Oh. Yeah I don’t know what that one is either
oh, for some trials, everything up to fire afaik you can get oob behind the walls. if you fly to a certain point you'll hit a wall that will teleport you into the trial. certain spots will take you to the end of the trial, some will take you to the beginning. you can search up tutorials on yt for it
ive only ever been able to pull it off for air trial
Hush, you're disturbing my beauty sleep!
I still haven't seen the sunset after latest update, even i checked sanctuary 5 minutes after grandma and nothing happened. What should i do
tgc hates fun episode 76
update, eyyy it still works
A beta-testing tip for our new testers joining us: it can be helpful to have a note-card with you so that if you notice something, you can write it down and remember to report it later! Finding a bug only helps if you remember to file a bug report, as tedious as those can be... But it can be easy to forget sometimes. And take screenshots if you can, too — it helps the devs! 
Investing in storage is pretty nice also (looks at my 200Gb of beta videos

I'm feral for the music shop to come out
So excited. There's already so many cool new features in beta testing for this season already with the stage and the mechanics of working the crowd and stage setting and playing instruments you don't have on stage!!
Such cool things we can do now and since I strongly think the music shop will involve spells that give you instruments I think it'll be even cooler new features!! So much work has been put into this season it makes me antsy to test and get new updates

posted a video testing the shortcut in #beta-screenshots-videos, although i imagine you'll find better tutorials on yt 😂
Hey guys, i tried to get the ocean cape but it always said that i already buy it but i dont even have the ocean cape..
likely because the days of nature testing is over now
same thing happened when days of love was extended in live, the shop npcs stayed but it gave the "you've already bought everything" message
I see, so im late?
yes. testing ended yesterday i believe (and was supposed to end earlier iirc, but extended for new testers)

@shut helm response to your screenshot posted
We can't buy it now anymore?
nope. DoN testing is over
Ending too soon😞😞😞 When does Performance season end in beta?😞😞😞
44 days
Do you know how many candles it takes to complete this season?
No but I can check for you
388 seasonal candles + 48 regular. There’s an extra mask on the ultimate gifts tree
Frantic stagehand takes 91; modest dancer takes 81; mellow musician takes 105; forgetful storyteller takes 111
Thank you so muchhhhhh✨
Ofccc

I still have the ask pigback for anyone spell lol

I miss STAR testing phase 😭 imagine having spells for all the recent Pins
Tho I’m so sad not all the spells work, like the soulmates spell has no effect 
Almost 2 months and candles still don't wipe 
Ah!! I got it to work once, though it's definitely tricky. Thank you though, it's good to have an alternative if spiral really does leave live at least
Anyone here named sal or daffodil i had to log off because i have online classes 😭
Is days of nature over in beta?
Turtle / sunset is still there for view if you wanna go see it. xx:50 starts same hour as grandma /geyser
New beta players, please don’t place message candles on the home pad or in the actual candle shrine where you collect your candle at home.
What spirit comes after fire prophet?
the twirling champion iirc
Sparkler Parent came after the fire prophet. The twirling Champion came after that
Oh right lol i forgor
Will i lose my live account if i become a tester
They are separate. I signed into beta with my Nintendo account which is my main account on live. You start over in beta, but live remains same with all your stuff unaltered.
ooooo ok can i have my beta acc and live one on the same device i can just switch through them
Same device. Beta gets a separate app so you can sign in on your phone on beta apps and stay in sky live app signed in. Both can be signed in same time since they are two dif apps.
I have them on the same device and it works fine
as long as u have good storage space
ty💗 im going to be a beta tester but i need to wait on next wave
You should read #beta-faq if you're planning on being a tester then ^__^ has all the info you need to know
Question, is there a bug that gives people extra wings (possibly leading to someone getting 12 wedges)? Mentioned earlier in this same chat, someone talked about a youtuber in beta who has 12 wedges. I know who this youtuber is, and when they were questioned I saw them say “it’s a bug in beta.” Is this actually a beta bug? Or is it really just hacking (I’d assume it is, but I’d like to know for a fact before reporting).
No, those are hackers
I assumed. It sucks that people feel the need to hack. The devs are nice enough to let us try out upcoming cosmetics for free, and trust us to test out the game for bugs, and then people do things like this. Thanks for the info, I will report 
Does anyone know who to contact about this? I know a mod directed people to dm a TGC staff member earlier about this same situation, but I cannot find that person. It’s really late, so I probably will report about this tomorrow, but I’d like to know who/where to share this information to and how to contact them. Thanks! 
Beta testers' feedback is very important for TGC to create a good player experience! Please try searching for things yourself instead of asking here when possible, and remember to submit your thoughts in #beta-feedback so the devs know how to improve 
!reportfaq You report players in game. If you find something suspicious on social media, you can send it to Zahlya, (as mentioned in #rules ,I think?).
Here's some info on how to report players in the game: https://bit.ly/ReportFAQ
Ive never seen anyone tell someone to DM TGC staff, I thought it was frowned upon to do so 
Oh wow I even read rules when trying to find info and somehow read past that
I need sleep
thank you!
You can DM Zahlya with hacked content you find online on YT/IG etc. Or possibly any red staff member, ie Community Manager.
woah! tier 2 black and white capes?
But isn’t Zahlya a TGC staff member that is encouraged to be contacted in situations like this (in this case, a hacking youtuber)?
(Which as prompt blep said, is stated in rules)
has anyone else experienced messages not showing up when viewing a memory candle? i relogged and they showed up again so i’m not sure if it’s a bug or if i was just playing for too long 💀
Oh, well, no wonder I never saw that, it was sent at 6am 
Ah, it looks like the #rules were altered after I joined the server, so I may have never seen it. Good for the clarification
Krills are now active in ||office|| is that normal? 😳
ohhhhh so we're getting predictable TSes? like the same ones just with a delay?
does that mean i missed grateful shell keeper

@queen solstice I saw your bug report about crashing in Eden! If you're wearing the coral crown, that's what making you crash. If you take it off before using the return shrine, you should be able to continue normally!
Next beta ts should be sparkler ✨
I'm pretty sure Sparkler Parent has had the most visits out of every TS
What can I say, she and sassy are bffs after all
ooo i want her hair
Only I’m beta at the moment.
Yes. I think they may have been sleeping for a while. 😂
someone can tell me why in beta face do eden the game crashes and even returning with chibi fall at the time of the embrace in eden the game keeps crashing and I no longer see the kingdoms from home 😭
hmm, i heard that if you wear the coral crown in eden, it'll crash your game. i don't know as i haven't done eden in a while. 
If you are wearing the coral crown, remove it and see if that works. It’s crashing the game right now.
when does the ocean cape dude come? like in how much hours? i hate this so much why cant i just have it at any time 
I believe Days of Nature has ended. I could be wrong.
nooooooooooo i wanted that cape sm
thanks for the reply but unfortunately now i'm still and it's not pleasant
Are you wearing any Days of Nature cosmetics? If so, remove them. I’m sorry you’re stuck! Keep trying though.
rip DoN time for rainbo tho
We all took an L during days of nature event 
I try to change cosmetics. and try again
I hope it works for you.
💋💋💋💋💋 however all this is terrible. and feeling helpless and alone

💏
Question! Which do you guys prefer?
Owl Hair
or
Owl Hair 2.0 from the upcoming season? 
noot noot hair 🐧
i love the penguin ult hair because of the emphasised antennae but i think i prefer the owl hair coz something about the penguin hair looks crooked, one of the bangs is crooked, and it seriously irritates my OCD
I prefer neither, go bald 
if they were not crooked i suppose i would prefer penguin hair , but tbh im not sure, i'd need to try the owl hair myself to know
Wow thanks to your valuable advice. I changed cosmetics and finally solved it. thank you thank you thank you
Hope TGC will include nyckellharpa in future musical instruments program! ! !
How many the next beta?
You’re welcome! I’m glad that worked for you! Hopefully they fix that soon.
Personally I don't call it Owl hair 2.0, I call it Penguin Hair
....since it is generally the theme🐧🐧🐧🐧
Also, I prefer that hair, it just seems more natural...Idk
So umm when do you guys think the music shop will become available 🤔
Hello,I haven't done any beta testing yet,but are any in-app purchases that you buy in beta free?
yup, as long as its available for purchase
Nevermind
i was about to answer 😭
no the instruments down the rain bug is not patched yet, on the other side there seems to be a bug that drains your energy in one of the caves going on rn, hope we get notifs soon 
hello, I'm new can I ask something the Nintendo pack is still available? I'm a new beta tester
Nop sadly! it was only when the game was going to launch on switch
If the krills in office are now active,, is it the preparation for days of mischief?
days of mischief is over 5 months away 😭
My Vietnamese language in game has so many bug recently...
Yes, the whole Vietnamese translation is bugged right now. Their formatting didn't work
It's a mess, I need to change my phone language into English to play beta 💦
Ps ps
Scarf cape free

The krills were always active in the office. I think it was a glitch they were asleep honestly.
If you’re asking about The Little Prince scarf, it will never be available again due to copyrights.
Wait really?! Everytime I always got the chance to visit it in live, they always seemed to be asleep 😯
I’m not sure I’m understanding. Who was asleep?
Oop sorry I should've been more clear 😅. I was saying that whenever I enter office in live, the krills always seemed to be in the clouds frozen.
They have to be activated, but I think they had them asleep on purpose maybe. I’m not sure!
Is it just me the translation on message isn't working
Yes, they mentioned about it in #beta-known-issues that they are temporarily disabling the translate feature.
