[orchid knot]

I think it's cause it's not fully active yet

[rare trail]

hm maybe

[cosmic vine]

on my way to hug flop

[orchid knot]

good news guys, flop hasn't done assembly quests so we gonna need another group party

[uncut ginkgo]

Standing by the lamp at 5th quest now let's hope for merge

[orchid knot]

I'll be the extinguished kid

[fallen forge]

im still omw had to write a mini essay LMAO

[orchid knot]

oh my god I don't even have speed roll on here I'm suffering 😭

[fallen forge]

now you know how i felt when i did the full game speedroll

[orchid knot]

I was gonna visit the quest area to see if that would cause a merge but I can't light the mask because I'm extinguished

[fallen forge]

LMAO me jaws and tak are all sitting by the lamp

[cosmic vine]

everyone merged 😭

[orchid knot]

Try going into the quest, I just hopped in and it might help
Also it's pretty in here

[fallen forge]

OHOUUUU IT SO IS

[cosmic vine]

it kicked me out

[orchid knot]

Ayo we gotta follow the leader in this quest

[tulip veldt]

good luck, we couldnt do it

[fallen forge]

perhaps we should all just wait outside the quest? oh did you get sucked in to do the quest bubba

[orchid knot]

Idk what this quest is but hello sheep friend

yes I did and now I'm stuck here with a sheep but I can't join them 😔

[uncut ginkgo]

Merging w/ everyone except bubba damn even peregrine is here now 😭

[orchid knot]

Random merges are more difficult when you end up merging with friends I think

[fallen forge]

ah damn
make sure to hop back in the lobby when you’re finished with the quest then so we can find you and throw friendship at you!!!

[orchid knot]

The mask has flowers on it and I just scolded it for some reason

Well that was weird but I'm back in regular forest now, merged with someone but they vanished again rip, I'll be over next to hunter playing ocarina

[uncut ginkgo]

Wait bubba, does flop have mimic added?

[orchid knot]

Yes if they're online we can just warp to them

[uncut ginkgo]

ayyy we can poke mimic then once they're online, cuz the only people I've merged with are people on my constellation (and dark, but I have them added now so XD)

[royal kettle]

new days of rainbow cosmetics with the Polytron colors
are we getting a FEZ crossover :p ?

[loud terrace]

This chat is for discussing season testing.
#beta-discussion is for discussing everything non-season related beta testing.

[thorny relic]

You know it’s a good day when a whole book gets posted in beta updates 😂😍😘

[sterile pagoda]

5th quest is so bugged rn LOL

[glossy shore]

Yea we were struggling dawg 😭

[novel summit]

Is the 5th quest bugged? It got stuck at the fourth lamp and refuse to go forward

[sterile pagoda]

I had NO idea what I was doing

[orchid knot]

Idk if it's bugged or just needs more people in general to complete it - not gonna be fun post-season for solo players

[sterile pagoda]

I doubt it’s that, it seemed just bugged, it kept going back and forth between 4th and 5th lamp

[glossy shore]

We were suppose to guide light throughout the stream of flame, but at the 4th lamp it kept resetting

[sterile pagoda]

I managed to get a vid of it I can post in a bit

[orchid knot]

It got far for me but if I went into the water at all it would reset and I tried to pspsps the sheep to see if they could help but idk

[sterile pagoda]

For us it just kept resetting no matter what

[tulip veldt]

yea 4th lamp it couldnt do

I'm gonna guess that people who actually have the multiplayer hackey sack uh, dont legitimately have it?

[uncut ginkgo]

It's by a spell

[tulip veldt]

where do you get the spell from ? (and can you have multiple of them going at the same time?)

[sterile pagoda]

Spell boat

[uncut ginkgo]

Spell boat (option with the memory crystals + shared space spells, its at the bottom iirc)

[tulip veldt]

can they have the new masks too ?

[glossy shore]

No

[uncut ginkgo]

New masks are hacked since we can't access them yet, but the hackeysack can be legit since it's thru spell

[tulip veldt]

oh well they are long gone now 🙂

[orchid knot]

Awww the spell costs candles

[cosmic vine]

i got completely stuck at the quest's halfway point, had no idea how to guide the light solo

[orchid knot]

so everybody else alone when they go to nighttime isle or am I just cursed to suffer with no friends 😭 except mimic

[compact latch]

I’m having trouble with merges in crowd areas for sure, can’t get anyone to pop up and stick around at the night isle or event area

[solid shuttle]

Hello, I haven't been active in testing so I would like to know if I can do the latest playtest even though I've only just completed the first seasonal quest?

[dusk willow]

I just started the quest and woooow the waiting room is gorgeous!!

[sterile pagoda]

Ikr!! It’s so pretty

[orchid knot]

So when I did that quest I didn't reach all the way to the end but I did end up seeing the end for some reason and I got to scold the mask and it was wearing flowers... It was weird

[sterile pagoda]

Oh yeah same, for me it got stuck resetting, but after some time I was able to see the end cutscene. Seems to just be timed and you finish no matter what

[dusk willow]

I'm so confused 😭

[modern slate]

Were you the sky kid with the naruto hair ?

[sterile pagoda]

No, I didn’t do it this time. Did it an hour or so ago

[nocturne blade]

YOO THIS IS OPEN AGAIN

[shell fossil]

So am I understanding right that you can start the 5th quest, but then the mask gets buggy at the 4th lamp? Has anyone been able to get past that point or finish the quest?

(the next one starts at the top of the hour)

[glossy shore]

We can't get past that point but the quest eventually finishes itself? Is the end cutscene with the mask being adorned with flowers?

[mellow nebula]

Has anyone been able to try the quest with more than 1-2 other people? Or see more than 1-2 others?

[glossy shore]

I tried it with another friend earlier, yes

[dusk willow]

I've only seen myself and a couple wooly dudes popping in and out of existence

[mellow nebula]

It might be a little funky right now at the start and not everyone is on the latest update. Ideally we can see lots of other players

[modern slate]

I got split two times from ppl then I got stuck at the 4th lamp. The server might be a little wonky

[tulip veldt]

when i did it (kind of a lot earlier today) it was only me and a sheep and we couldnt get the line to go towards the 4th lamp (there were other people in the waiting room but I didn't see them actually doing the quest with me)

[orchid knot]

I saw the end cutscene eventually despite not finishing the quest in terms of leading through all the lamps, I couldn't make it to the tunnel section at all and then eventually the cutscene happened and I scolded the mask and it flew away

[glossy shore]

Scolding it for how bugged it is 😔💔

[orchid knot]

it was a weird experience ngl like why am I scolding a floating raisin

[orchid galleon]

Raccoon raisin got us to walk in circles in the woods

[orchid knot]

can't join players in the quest

[orchid galleon]

I got in the waiting area and there were just two players rolling around the bloom flower

[orchid knot]

I keep splitting from the sheep so this is not working

[sterile pagoda]

I only saw 2 ppl last time I did it

[orchid knot]

devs be honest did y'all get the idea for follow the leader from the concert heart trains

[tulip veldt]

can we just have a quest 'make a heart train' that we all just complete by accident?

on the first day of butterflies instead of a train we just had a big clump of hearts, and then a little group split off and turned into a rival group of wow, and then right before it started there was a little clump of cry starting to form up but we never managed to get the whole crowd in on it

[urban coral]

How are people doing the 5th, let alone the 4th quest? Mine still says 3 days away in the quest tree

[dusk willow]

#beta-announcements message

[orchid knot]

Just go to the quest location (shown in #beta-announcements) and light the mask

What nasty said

[urban coral]

O…lol… I forgot about that by the time I got to the end of #beta-announcements oops. Thanks

[orchid knot]

understandable, it's a big update with lots of notes

[orchid galleon]

Sago even said there's gonna be even more notes soon

[past plaza]

I also can't get past the fourth lantern

And I crashed

[orchid knot]

I still haven't wrapped my head around the first lot

[urban coral]

Ya stuck at the 4th lantern too

Can’t seem to join anybody either. Just a few sheep here with me

[pine crypt]

just saw the new ticket system the part of me who loves to collect stuff is gonna have a field day with this one it hits live

[sand plaza]

i can't wait to no longer be too broke on candles to get the ts

[glossy shore]

#beta-discussion 👈

[urban coral]

What’s the icon do that pops up during the quest?

I don’t seem to have any control over this light. It just seems to go by itself or follows the sheep…I dunno

[orchid knot]

I'm honestly not sure myself, I'm hoping its clearer during the playtest with more of us around, but even before when I was with like 4 sheep we couldn't really get past all the lamps

[mellow nebula]

Haha thank you to those who tried the quest with me just now 🙏

[orchid knot]

Did it work for you Nick?

[mellow nebula]

Haha we hit some snags, I DID see some other players though which was a good sign. Super helpful test, even with 4 people! Interested to see how it'll feel like with MORE! Lots to learn, so thank you for helping Passage become a better season!

[tulip veldt]

yea i dunno what this 4th one wants to do but it is not go to the flowers

[mellow nebula]

by the end of this testing period, it will OBEY

[orchid knot]

I really enjoy the fact the mask ends up with flowers on after, I don't understand the significance given that we can't really complete the floral light path, but it was cool!

[jolly haven]

I had an idea for a season crossover but I decided against saying it.

[prime umbra]

WAIT IS IT READY TET

Imma enter beta now

[woven flower]

If we are load testing, it seems impossible that I could be in a server all to myself. I feel like I missed a critical step somehow?

[rain fulcrum]

im all by myself as well

[hardy tide]

So i borted oreo. No one around

[shell fossil]

Time to head to Forest!

[dusk willow]

Ready

[crisp trout]

so pretty!

[tulip veldt]

chat channel changed!

[urban coral]

Well I found all the missing peeps from Oreo land…lol

[orchid knot]

I didn't do quest 2 and it tried to stop me on the way

[final axle]

Omg the ghost kid forms are so cute

[solid shuttle]

fluffy blobs awww

[orchid knot]

Ohhh so there was other players online afterall

[spiral thunder]

so is the new mask like., a raccoon dog

[sterile pagoda]

I love the little fluffy things

[solar lark]

rip haven't done assembly so no shortcut

[shell fossil]

So many glowy embers

You have time, Elysian!

[warped mulch]

Confused about why I had to add this channel back to my channel list, but here was are! Isn't it pretty, everyone?

[orchid knot]

I can't join people 😭

[sterile pagoda]

Thje mask looks. So weird from the front

[rain fulcrum]

in a lineee

[limpid flame]

OK,see others with me in the fifth quest area. Phew. Didn't see anyone earlier today.

[tardy ruin]

So pretty!!

[oblique inlet]

am i the only one who cant see the mask at its spot

[urban coral]

Doesn’t let me join anybody tho. Only sheep here

[shell fossil]

As in, you don't see anyone, or you can't teleport to friends you see in the crowd?

[final axle]

Ahahaha fluffy stack from piggybackers

[warped mulch]

I won't let me go past the fallen tree. I have no idea how people are already over there.

[thin badge]

I see that too hahaha

[orchid knot]

Oh I see lots of sheep I just can't teleport to them, sorry for confusion!

[dim cedar]

HELP I GOT LOST

[next coral]

Same 😂

[dusk willow]

My sheepy friends keep freezing from time to time

[tulip veldt]

people are still phasing in and out of existence

[limpid flame]

I'm only getting the Join button for a very small number of players. Even when I do see the button, it doesn't work. "Join failed. Please check your connection and try again".

[orchid kettle]

yep I see the sheepy ghosts but def get "join failed" if you try to join a random one

[acoustic sparrow]

Confusing

[hardy tide]

7 minutes more

[glass cypress]

[subtle hedge]

Who’s the the bridge making stars with me

[crude forge]

Ok I couldn't update my app cuz my phone was being sassy but I play tested with Sis's acc. One pot wouldn't get collected

[crisp trout]

i see a stack of lil ghosts on the bridge

[shy rock]

I don't see the mask!

[warped mulch]

I like how this mask looks like a wolf/canine. I have my Feast Antlers on so I look like some sort of cryptid xD

[compact latch]

This place is much better for me, filled with goobers and no merging constantly !

[rich silo]

wearing raccoon mask makes me appreciate how it doesn't cover the chin
it's been so long since we last had an animal mask that did that

[craggy bobcat]

I am!

[urban coral]

I found a non sheep!

[shell fossil]

@shy rock the mask is in the very very front of the area

[tulip veldt]

4 non sheeps

[devout venture]

star circle!

[uncut ginkgo]

Hi everyone! You all look so fluffy
(Channel name changes confuse me)

[orchid kettle]

I love the look of all this - the feel etc... :} Everyone is so cute

[hardy tide]

Where to start ir gather? Just waiting the timer?

[orchid knot]

Just realised the sheep aren't wearing the raccoon mask yet

[shell fossil]

check out the screenshots I posted earlier in #beta-announcements

[limpid flame]

Right when you enter, look to the left, under a tree. It's a little hard to spot.

[dull forge]

lol at the stack of cotton balls

[sterile pagoda]

I see the stack omg

[shy rock]

I'm there! At the very, very front by the tree but I see no mask!

[glossy bear]

OMG THERES A STACK HAHAHHAA

[spiral mantle]

I see it too

[crisp trout]

we’re all crowding around the stack xD

[odd hazel]

I don't see the mask either

[real tulip]

is that the raccoon mask ? or i need to buy glasses ?

[nova summit]

Should we sit already?

[zealous charm]

spectates chat quietly

[kindred trail]

I think my quest failed xD

[woven flower]

My server is having some strangeness. Is this a place for devs to get the feedback?
Random moths appear and disappear from the server instance. It’s kinda creepy

[uncut ginkgo]

My quest is fail

[spiral mantle]

Ohh the timer appeared

[shell fossil]

The quest hasn't started yet

[lyric briar]

Don’t mind us stacking up spamming emotes

[warped mulch]

I managed to merge with one of my long-term Beta friends. Very happy to be sharing a server while we wait
(I wasn't planning on joining this test, but happened to have some time.)

[final axle]

I love the different sized floofs based on height (i think)

[orchid kettle]

I see sheepies poofing and reappearing. Not sure if that's people's connection glitching. (Btw I love all the diff size sheepies)

[uncut ginkgo]

I don’t think I look fuzzy

[shy rock]

I will restart my game!

[limpid flame]

There's a dev listening now: Sagomay, whose name is in blue.

[dim cedar]

I CANT SEE MASK
FUN

[dusk willow]

I love seeing everyones name

[glossy bear]

i have added myself to the stars on the bridge

[crude forge]

Sushi I saw u as poof

[urban coral]

I lost my non sheep fren :(

[rich silo]

you should send to #beta-feedback where all information sent will 100% be read by a dev
not because one is active in the chat

[tulip veldt]

sheeps are suspiciously.... not moving

[cobalt solstice]

hahaha I love being a stack

[sterile pagoda]

Sheeps keep phasing in and out of existing

[urban coral]

The Oreo servers are definitely here too.

[orchid knot]

it's so funny seeing lights sway from side to side when sheep kids have no arms

[shell fossil]

#beta-feedback is the place for feedback—the chat will get too buried here 😄

[crisp trout]

i wish i could join the randoms 😭

[hardy tide]

About to begin 5th quest

[slim violet]

The sheep keep bouncing into the sky lol

[shy rock]

Restarting had no effect, still no sign of the mask for me!

[forest gyro]

two minutes! yippeeeee so excited

[glossy bear]

my foot has gone numb, send help

[warped mulch]

Yesss, I thought you were gonna join me for a moment.

[real tulip]

what animal mask is it ?

[shell fossil]

You should be able to see it no matter your quest progress, but out of curiosity, have you done the first three quests yet?

[grave stream]

Can't wait to hear the music for this quest

[crude forge]

My app wouldn't update so I couldn't joint the test a few minutes ago

[shell fossil]

yes

[uncut ginkgo]

The stack of sheep!

[oak wadi]

I wonder why its too late that tgc decided to change mask , wierd

[astral zealot]

We saw the stack!

[sterile pagoda]

I love all the sheeps on the bridge

[shy rock]

I have done all three quests yes!

[solid shuttle]

Ngl these ghosts kinda remind me of isopods but fluffier

[vast kettle]

The server is out of order? I can't see other players.

[nova summit]

I made friends with the two people I joined the quest with

[woven flower]

Thank you Sagomay.
Did I hear a goat/sheep bleat at the start of activating the mask???

[lyric briar]

Hope we were annoying enough 😂

[shell fossil]

Please do send a bug report when you have a chance, if you could also include a screenshot of where the mask should be. That would be helpful! 🙏

[cursive yarrow]

i can’t join anyone :(

[limpid flame]

Sometimes I see a person or a big group of people jump very high. Higher than I'd expect people with no capes to be able to go

[glass cypress]

My friend, is that you

[hardy tide]

Hope no crash

[sterile pagoda]

The sheeps changing color is so silly

[dusk valley]

Been rolling around the fire

[orchid knot]

who is the lil sheep cooking themself in the fire pot

[final axle]

Last minute countdown is on

[neon fern]

i did tested the quest 2 times and i was utterly confused

[glossy bear]

30 seconds!

[shell fossil]

20 seconds!

[warped mulch]

oml- I can walk with the light waving emote out?? Is that new/normal??

[urban coral]

You have rainbow cap?

[glass cypress]

YES

[orchid knot]

I haven't done the 2nd or 3rd quest btw and I managed to get here so I don't think it's progress related

[forest gyro]

yes yes

[sterile pagoda]

NYOOOM

[final axle]

[shell fossil]

here we go!

[glossy bear]

THE FLYING SHEEP HELP

[crisp trout]

WEE

[oak wadi]

Hi guys why is there a ticket thing in sky now

[nova summit]

woosh

[zenith storm]

its starting~

[devout venture]

lmao all the star emotes are active still

[warped mulch]

read #beta-announcements

[dim cedar]

ITS THE GAY BUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! /j

[orchid knot]

mid conversation with mimic and boom quest jumpscare

[sterile pagoda]

LMAOOO THE STARS

[forest gyro]

it is like Flower!

[dull forge]

omgg

[grave stream]

oooooh

[shy rock]

The mask decided to appear but now it's too late!

[foggy ridge]

guys the line isnt lining

[sterile pagoda]

Oh it’s so buggy

[glossy bear]

do we just stand by em?

[oak wadi]

Does wearing new pride items means u are queer and maybe can find other rainbow people too and then meet ur future partner hehe

[warped mulch]

it has no music

[foggy ridge]

we are supposed to make a line i believe to guide the light from lantern to lantern?

[shy rock]

I was checking the correct location the entire time!!

[glossy bear]

why do i keep seeing an icon like % but with extra dots

[sterile pagoda]

It’s so bugged help

[spiral thunder]

wow i have no idea what is going on

[zenith storm]

im very confused

[orchid knot]

WHAT IS GOING ON

[west wyvern]

I think that's where the line has to start?

[tall void]

no one is making a line

[last zinc]

GUYS FORM A LINE AND GUIDE THE ICON

[glass cypress]

It keeps going back and forth

[tulip veldt]

i dont get what dna button is for

[foggy ridge]

i think the % icon has something to do with us breaking the line?

[languid dew]

make a line until it connects

[warped mulch]

Not all of us being horrible at this quest and getting stuck xD

[lyric briar]

Our line keeps going crooked

[spiral mantle]

Press the button and then stand still!

[astral zealot]

Make sure to reinforce the line

[glossy bear]

OHHH I NSEE WHAT WERE DOING

[zenith storm]

line with who, there aren't enough ppl in my server..

[solid shuttle]

it's so funny how we're all struggling

[dull forge]

it's so hard to see with the crowd

[orchid knot]

make a line but with no communication to do so is not as easy as it seems

[spiral thunder]

thats very bold on you to assume forming a line is a possiblity in a game where theres no communication

[last zinc]

There's a reason why this quest is called "Passage of Alignment" XD
FORM A LINE AND THE FLAME WILL FOLLOW THROUGH

[sterile pagoda]

My light keeps going back

[devout venture]

when you get a blue circle around you stay in place

[shell fossil]

[final axle]

Become one with the line

[languid dew]

make sure to T pose and stop moving

[orchid knot]

I mean the quest finishes either way so

[dusk willow]

so.......... this will be an impossible one to do solo huh

[white idol]

At least SOME of us need to pick a spot and stand still

[spiral mantle]

I think TGC greatly overestimated our ability to coordinate 😅

[neon minnow]

The lights is all the way back several flowers ago for me, no where near most of the skykids

[thin badge]

Were supposed to make a line! Stop going backwards

[warped mulch]

wow I love being the only person in the tree tunnel

[devout venture]

oof

[next coral]

Ohhh my god this is giving me anxiety 😅

[solid shuttle]

it died wooo

[zenith storm]

welp

[glossy bear]

oh it stopped

[grave stream]

what happened

[sterile pagoda]

That did not make sense

[blissful anvil]

welp that definitely was something

[serene gull]

no one stayed in a line, oof lol

[forest gyro]

died

[proper canopy]

there's too less players around the light

[vital ether]

did we do it. did we win

[dusk willow]

we lose 😔

[acoustic sparrow]

That is the worst line I have ever seen

[languid dew]

yeyyyyyy

[orchid knot]

WELL DONE GUYS, WE DID SO GOOD 💀

[glass cypress]

Uh

[spiral thunder]

these are unrealistic expectations im ngl to you 😭

[dull forge]

yeah it was too hard to see the blue circle

[hardy tide]

Others confused too

[urban coral]

I dunno what happened

[thin badge]

Unggh

[craggy bobcat]

Uh….

[foggy ridge]

oh it worked? 😭

[nova summit]

yippie!!!

[bright onyx]

What just happened XDD

[upper gust]

why everyone rush front tho?

[tardy ruin]

People just stopped and the light wouldn’t move

[warped mulch]

I think we failed pahahaha

[kindred trail]

Failed again xD

[tall void]

can we get a “you tried” star sticker lmao

[cosmic vine]

sorry team i had zero idea what was happening

[crisp trout]

same

[tepid lily]

none of u know how to make a line god bless 💔

[languid dew]

Flower fox

[past plaza]

Haha what a mess

[thick pond]

"your did it ⭐"

sorry wrong message

[glossy bear]

nothing made sense tbh- i couldnt see where the light was

[grave stream]

The mask ran away?

[blissful anvil]

was that it？or did we fail lmao

[zenith storm]

do we get a 2nd try 🫠

[solar lark]

I was confused as hell. I saw the blue light in front of me, so I ran there. Then it was behind me, so I ran back, then it was in front of me again

[proper canopy]

the light was still at the fallen tree....

[torpid snow]

The mask was disappointed

[sterile pagoda]

It’s not our fault the instructions made no sense

[foggy ridge]

the blue light kept bouncing back and forth

[forest gyro]

should we go again

[urban coral]

Well at lest they a consistent hot mess

[orchid kettle]

Lol this was hilariously adorable to just ... everyone being lost and trying to figure out what they're doing.

[crude forge]

No one wanted to make a conga line

[warped mulch]

Wow. Well. Maybe TGC can learn from this, pahaha

[orchid knot]

y'all never learn how to line up in an orderly fashion in preschool?

[uncut ginkgo]

that... was bad

[tulip veldt]

go again?

[crisp trout]

😭

[vale glade]

wait, is it over

[thin badge]

Cuz people kept going back and breaking the line-

[glass cypress]

So.. did we do it?

[limpid flame]

We failed. Couldn't get the light past the sixth or seventh flower. The point where you have to go through the log.

[grave stream]

This was so funny though

[hardy tide]

Thats it. So its done? I went back at the starting point outside the quest proper

[acoustic sparrow]

That was the first time I’ve ever seen a mask be so visibly disappointed

[solid shuttle]

I emerged from the mask area and my cape had completely lost light fromr ain 💀

[dusk willow]

I don't think we can blame anyone for this so let's not point fingers, the instructions are purposefully very vague and honestly I think the quest wasn't working properly

[thick pond]

"your did it ⭐"

[shell fossil]

Sky kids never went to preschool, apparently

[glossy bear]

TGC what did we do wrong

[white idol]

I think I'll go in again

[vital ether]

we did really good i think this is exactly how the quest was supposed to go 👍

[proper canopy]

I think the line broke there? not sure tho

[crisp trout]

what do we do now?

[frosty wasp]

Did everyone else get kicked back into forest too? I'm so confused!

[limpid flame]

The light stream wasn't registering the line we were making. I think it got confused.

[uncut ginkgo]

the quest is SO VAGUE in what to even do though, sure it says form a line, but there's also a bunch of mechanics that AREN'T explained

[sterile pagoda]

Now it’s empty

[lyric briar]

Didn’t you know we are supposed to color outside the lines????

[crude forge]

People kept waiting by the flower and not go back to form a stream 😔

[vale glade]

went back there and there is now a timer?

[orchid knot]

I lost mimic when the quest finished so now I'm sad and don't know how to line up

[shell fossil]

This is a new kind of activity, to be fair!

[ocean aurora]

sky beta forms worst line known to man
asked to leave hidden forest /ref

[thin badge]

What line? There stopped being one

[upper gust]

I saw everyone running and leaving behind the blue circle

[solid shuttle]

I don't understand what the % symbol with extra dots means...?

[foggy ridge]

yea 7 min wait until the next one?

[glass cypress]

So? Try again???

[hardy tide]

So its done right?

[quick stone]

Im so glad the days of color event is at the 8 person door i can finally get the spirit there

[grave stream]

Oh we were supposed to stay in the circle?

[spiral thunder]

i think its simply too high to expect tons of people in a big group like this where theres no communication to be able to form a stable line

[next coral]

Solarin and I are just shrugging at each other 😂

[dull forge]

it just clicked why this one is called "passage of ALIGNMENT" 🤣

[shell fossil]

Herding Cats: The Game

[sterile pagoda]

Exactly, it’s so confusing, like are we supposed to stay in place in a line or move in a line???? It’s too vague

[raw orchid]

i think it meant the line was cut off or something

[zenith storm]

what about when there wont be enough people to form a line, what would happen in that case?

[final axle]

The help guide at the bottome did say to "Form a line" in orange

[urban vessel]

Sky kids never listened to their grade school teacher ig

[still jewel]

everyone at the front wont stand still and just went to the light 😭

[tardy ruin]

If people don’t move along the light won’t move thru. In my group people were camped out and we couldn’t move the light. Somewhat like the ball quests will stay fixed if someone interferes.

[stable comet]

Are we supposed to redo the seasonal quest?

[tulip veldt]

went back in: nobody here 😦 said

[trim flax]

for me, in my server, everyone crowded arouns to the check point between the fallen logs, leaving only me and one other to guide the stream, which wasnt enough. no matter how hard we tried to call out to the others, they never moved 😅
i got the quest completion cutscene and then my game immediately crashed HAHA

[warped mulch]

We're a little bit dumb, you see

[nova summit]

I thought the circle was where it was failing to connect

[orchid kettle]

I definitely think there are elements that are hard to initially understand - the blue circles in the log, the % type symbols, the blue dots on our backs etc

[prime umbra]

It’s done right? It gave me a cutscenes where mask with flower all over it face, does it mean it’s done??? I don’t get it

[solar lark]

Like am I supposed to stay still for the whole thing? Or stay still for a bit then move forward?

[hardy tide]

Now no ones around

[crisp trout]

im so confused 😭 i also went back in and im alone

[ionic pendant]

Well I tried my best, when the quest ended and I was put back at the mask I was out of light and about to start losing wl though. ^_^;;

[devout venture]

maybe turn the voice calls into directions? like a stop and go one? as well as a point that point to the direction you are facing?

[orchid kettle]

Yeah that was a Q too - do we try to move it forward as a line, or just stand still? - Also I wonder if it would be easier if certain kids were designated as kind of "leads" to direct the others haha - but that's a lot of emote directing if so.

[sterile pagoda]

Well now I can see people in the same server as me but there’s no sheep

[acoustic sparrow]

What did that division % percentage—whatever that was—symbol meant?

[grave stream]

Got some ideas for feedback at least

[orchid knot]

You guys don't understand how devastating it is to be British and fail at being part of a queue, this is something we thrive for

[devout venture]

broken line at that spot

[nova summit]

I have two people with me here let’s do this guys just the three of us 🫡

[spiral thunder]

i think thayts to show where the light was at

[tardy ruin]

It’d be asking ALOT to get players to form an actual line. Lol. Just saying

[crisp trout]

found people! a chibi and their friend both wearing flight cosmetics ^^

[tulip veldt]

i've done it like 5 times now and i still have no idea what the button is for 🙂

[white vale]

I was so confused. What on earth was that lol

[glossy bear]

i kept honking to try and see where the light was but you cant see it at all. you see blue flashes when it MOVES but other than that, its just impossible to see where you're supposed to be

[craggy bobcat]

I THINK IM WITH YOU! LETS DO IT

[solid shuttle]

there is a total of 4 people in my mask area server lmao we vibing

[final axle]

I found 3 people!

[white idol]

Seemed like the light was attracted to bunches of players, but if there wasn't a trail leading back to the last brazier the chain would break and the light would shoot backwards

[crude forge]

Also another thing. When the quest ended and I left the masks I was so close to my light going out.

[zenith storm]

now i see everyone capeless, outside of the quest

[crisp cedar]

I felt like the last server was trying to do a line, but it still didn't work in the end.

[sterile pagoda]

If anyone sees gw hair and yeti horns that is me I am also tiny

[shy rock]

I understand the pain

[final axle]

I've got witch hat and antlers if you see me

[craggy bobcat]

I SEE YOU!

[orchid kettle]

So does the lit lamp kind of act as a progress marker? Can you stop forming a line from the beginning?

[fair sun]

I think I see you! 😮

[tulip veldt]

british skykids in shambles

[harsh dagger]

We doing this again?

[crisp trout]

im sitting with two others, ive got cat hair and earrings with a prince pendant ^^
oh a third one just showed up, hello! ^^

[glossy bear]

i have the singular earring and rainbow beanie! im also skipping

[urban coral]

Well I got 3 other non sheep now. But no sheep sheep

[ionic pendant]

My server managed to get it a decent distance but there was a part with slightly deeper water we couldn't seem to get the line across. ^_^;

[acoustic sparrow]

Forming a line was too difficult Sagomay. Can we stand still and huddle while the developers show us how to do it next time?

[solid shuttle]

ehe I think I see you I've got timid hair and bunny

[glass cypress]

So... doing it again or???

[orchid kettle]

like do you basically just have to create a line from the last lit lamp to the next lamp?

[thick pond]

can confirm

[shell fossil]

Let me double check about trying again!

[devout venture]

ye i think its like a water line and the fires are a bucket. we just need to make sure we can pass off without moving to the next brazier

[tepid lily]

i have the new rainbow earrings and the sparkler parent hair :3

[frosty wasp]

That might have been me! There's four of us all sitting in a circle!

[rich sedge]

Still so many furballs that it's visually and audibly confusing.

[humble geyser]

I wanna join the playtest so bad. But it's Eid time now. Eid Mubarak everyone! Enjoy the playtest

[limpid flame]

Left the game, came back, and I'm alone again

[glass cypress]

Did we fail??

[crisp trout]

hi!

[solar lark]

Live is going to really struggle with this

[tulip veldt]

Eid Mubarak!

[final axle]

Oooh henlo!! With the aurora ball sway?

[glossy bear]

WHOEVER THE OTHER TWO ARE SKIPPING WITH ME I LOVE U GUYS /p

[woven flower]

Long honk reveals TWO RED EYES lurking in the darkness near meditation temple. 👀

[urban coral]

Ok! 4 non sheep plus me. Let do this ourselves…lol

[nova summit]

I see no sheep and just us three

[jagged tusk]

Uh, DoR, passage, all over with no idea what was going on.

[storm solstice]

Eid Mubarak!

[acoustic sparrow]

“They couldn’t form a line. A LINE. Maybe the next season should be focused on sending our sky kids back to kindergarten.”

[limpid flame]

I used the Return Shrine to get back to the area, but I don't see anyone. Is that maybe making a difference?

[orchid knot]

your faith that we can figure this out second time round is admirable

[mellow nebula]

Thanks for participating everyone, that was kinda crazy lol

[ionic pendant]

Maybe some spirits should tag along to guide us for this one. ^_^;

[hybrid marlin]

To be fair, Sky kids have always run to the next checkpoint with their little carry ball.. it's a natural assumption.

[white idol]

It looks like I'm in a normal 8 player server now and I cannot use crowd emotes

[tulip veldt]

i dont see anyone either so if there's only one of me i am KILLING IT at being in a line

[woven flower]

Cheers Nick, hope it was helpful for y’all!

[urban coral]

I got someone with normal clothes here now…weird

[glossy shore]

You can see other players who are outside the quest

[mellow nebula]

If you understood that we were trying to line up before the quest ended, respond w/ if you didn't know to make a line before the quest ended respond w/

[quick stone]

All alone

[urban coral]

Round 2

[devout venture]

here we goooo

[sterile pagoda]

I am confused on how the line works, like if we were supposed to stay in place or to move as a line

[rain fulcrum]

First thing I thought

[zenith storm]

i understood we had to do a line, but there were so many ppl everywhere that i didnt even know where to start

[solar lark]

It was more like I knew I had to make a line but how long did I have to stand there? Could I move up after a while etc

[burnt remnant]

Yall the mask rlly knows what's a line or not

[ionic pendant]

I understood it was a line, but not if it was a moving line or a static line. ^_^;

[glossy bear]

me and 2 others are going for it again apparently. friended them too, wish us luck

[orchid knot]

If you were just there for a good time:

[frosty wasp]

So, like, I figured it out eventually but it took until the third checkpoint

[nova summit]

That might be me!! Lol

[neon minnow]

Bug report already submitted but I think the light was in a different place for me than everyone else, people were lining up near the tunnel and the light was still at second or third flower on my screen

[glass cypress]

And probably me too lol

[devout venture]

theres like a group of seven rn

[tulip veldt]

were we supposed to move with the line or just take a spot and stand there

[ornate lake]

We were supposed to line up?

[jagged tusk]

I ended up not understanding it at all.

[vital ether]

i understood that we were supposed to line up, but having that many people in one space who were all doing different things at once did kind of confuse me into where the line was. made it a bit hard 2 see the circle we were supposed to stand in

[orchid kettle]

I think the blue light lihne vs the orange light line is confusing... not sure which one means we did it

[glossy shore]

I understood we had to form and stay in a line, assuming that the leader guides the light while the rest follows, but I couldn't see my teammates at all because of the overwhelming amount of fluffs

[glossy bear]

are u wearing owl hair or like a mohawk type style?

[frosty wasp]

Me too probably! lmao Y'all gotta let me know which avatars are yours so I can give you proper names

[acoustic sparrow]

We understood how to form a line, we just didn’t understand… how to form a line…??

[glass cypress]

Lmao

[devout venture]

okay we got this

[rich silo]

I think the random icon that showed up was meant to communicate "line break"?
but it took a while to understand that

[quick stone]

How r u guys getting people in ur space lol

[sweet topaz]

yes

[tulip veldt]

do fluffs contribute to your line or are they just there gettin in the way

[glossy bear]

THATS WHAT THAT MEANS?!
oops sorry

[ionic pendant]

I figured the icon was a break in the line but I wasn't sure how to fix it. ^_^;

[orchid kettle]

Ok I think... the band shows where it's gone to - and it's blue until it hits the next checkpoint? so then it turns orange?

[burnt remnant]

I was randomly pressing it. Is it supposed to be our position in the quest? Basically like your personal location pin?

[cosmic vine]

🦈 <- still doesn't understand anything

[nova summit]

I’ve got the cat ears hair! Oops haha

[glass cypress]

Oops

[orchid knot]

My issue was some people had already moved forward before mimic and I did the celebratory jump at each lamp so I was like wait are we done already or?

[foggy ridge]

we are doing the quest again right now and it looks like (from elysian's question), we are meant to stand in a line from checkpoint to checkpoint, and once you've reached the next point everyone would move up and form a new line

[blissful anvil]

ohhh i think orange line means its connected, and we can move away to the next section

[crisp trout]

almost everyone just poofed

[white seal]

i understood right at the very end,, at the very beginning i was already turned around and then a swarm of people blocked my vision so i was unable to even see what the objective was with such short trails to the flowers... in the end i almost couldn't process there was text at the bottom of my screen

[sweet topaz]

:')

[glass cypress]

I just kept hitting the icon without knowing what it was 😭😭

[glossy bear]

EVERYONE AT THE LIGHT COME BACK, HALF OF US VANISHED THE LINE BROKE

[zenith storm]

the line keeps getting disconnected everywhere

[solar lark]

It's always at the logs when things go wrong

[orchid kettle]

It feels like it randomly falls back even when there are tons of us in line

[serene gull]

everyone keeps moving out of the line and breaking it 😭

[ionic pendant]

I liked that we got wax sometimes, assumed we were doing something right when that happened. XD

[cosmic vine]

do goobers affect anything

[glossy bear]

WE NEED PEOPLE IN THE LOOOOGGGSSSSSSS

[foggy ridge]

i wonder what would happen if there werent enough players to form a line for a quest

[urban coral]

I don’t think round 2 is going any better

[white idol]

Seems like the two on either side of the log are just too far apart

[solar lark]

Everyone come back to the logs please

[ocean aurora]

I'm in the log

[devout venture]

its so closeeeee

[final axle]

I think the line only needs to connect between two points, not start to finish?

[grave stream]

nooooooo

[trim flax]

wait is the quest back on right now?? darn it, i just got in the shower

[zenith storm]

fail again ;-;

[orchid kettle]

I don't understand what the blue lit band inside the logs means... even when standing there it seems to fail.

[crisp trout]

everyone poofing made it so it didn’t work 😭

[glossy bear]

we failed

[solid shuttle]

oops

[sterile pagoda]

It’s so close yet so far

[shell fossil]

[ashen raven]

Hahaha failed part 2

[past plaza]

GO UNDER THE TREEEEEE

[acoustic sparrow]

I got lost under the bridge because the water is a literal void

[nova summit]

Ohhh

[tardy ruin]

Failed again!

[urban coral]

We not good at this

[glass cypress]

[serene gull]

isn't the goal just between flame to flame?

[ocean aurora]

We got one light further than last time WOO

[astral zealot]

We got through the first log at least

[kindred trail]

Seems impossible xD

[orchid knot]

Wait did we start again?

[rain rose]

I thought braziers was the checkpoint. So i keep moving to each one of them. While moving in line i guess

[sinful agate]

It's no one's fault, server poofed everyone in and out, and yes goal is flame to flame, don't have to stay behind once the line is pink move to where it's blue

[glossy bear]

yes, but people kept moving and breaking the line so the light kept falling back

[crisp trout]

ima try again

[sterile pagoda]

Nikki, mariposa & I had the right idea I think. We just stayed in the log in a line

[grave stream]

I don't understand it. I thought enough of us were forming a line to carry it but it kept breaking

[zenith storm]

gotta say tho, the mask with all the flowers is so cute

[orchid kettle]

yeah but it seems like the 2nd part it keeps moving forward then falling backwards...

[solid shuttle]

tgc about to rethink their entire quest concept after seeing the state of the queue

[devout venture]

one more time guys we can pass kindergarten

[vital ether]

we won we BEAT the game! woooo

[astral zealot]

Also shoutout to whoever was somersaulting with me in circles during the waiting room

[thick pond]

well at least nobody's assigned to fill a specific position in the line, thatd be extra hell

[crisp cedar]

At least we got through the first log, that's progress!

[burnt remnant]

My group didn't even manage to pass through the first log

[craggy bobcat]

The line is hard to keep

[shell fossil]

beta

[final axle]

Noooo the mask is disappointed

[ashen raven]

Let’s all hold hands and we’ll have the perfect line. A hand hold line of 1000 kids

[urban coral]

Tough to teach an old dog new non carry quests

[tardy ruin]

The chain keeps getting broken

[steep fulcrum]

were there 3-4 other people because i might’ve been there!!

[glossy bear]

im going back in! i have singular rainbow earring and rainbow beanie, ill be skipping on the bridge ^^

[white idol]

In I go again

[final axle]

We were rollin too!

[orchid kettle]

Also yeah after coming out of the quest always burning out

[ocean aurora]

Honestly it'll probably be easier in live with way more people active at once so even if no one knows what they're doing there'll be more people to make dots

[devout venture]

gogogogo gotta get that kindergarten passing grade

[shy rock]

Half the group suddenly froze halfway through and the light kept sticking to them whilst the other half desperately tried to move it forward.

[sinful agate]

We got this fam, try enough times and it'll (hopefully) work!

[rich heath]

season story wise, what is the purpose of the kids lining up to collect the lights?

[grave stream]

Let's just keep going until we get it right

[hexed seal]

Y'all people don't know how to keep in line we fail twice

[nova summit]

I believe in us

[limpid flame]

I think that having too many people in the room might be confusing the light stream.

[crisp trout]

good luck this time guys 😭

[foggy ridge]

id imagine we would all form clumps 😭

[fervent crest]

At least the servers are doing a bit better here than in the Oreo zone

[burnt remnant]

This could potentially be easier if there's less people per group(?)

[glass cypress]

[orchid kettle]

I do wonder if people were poofing and then their dropping out was affecting the line.

[acoustic sparrow]

Wait so the mask actually was disappointed in us, and kicked us out of the area for our failure? That stings

[glossy bear]

clumps would be better actually, cus maybe we would actually make a thick line

[orchid knot]

Okay well I'm just vibing in waiting room with mimic and sheep peregrine

[ocean aurora]

we'd eventually clump up from one light to another at least 💀

[vital ether]

were you wearing the performance owl hair and comedy mask? that mightve been me :]

[sterile pagoda]

Dark disappeared in front of my eyes

[astral zealot]

I was! it was fun, i was picturing racecar noises in my head as we were circling

[glossy bear]

i merged with peregrine and some other sheep!

[rich heath]

gonna come for the 3rd time. we are getting there

[ionic pendant]

Was I supposed to keep trying again? I ported home after the first try. ^_^;

[plain flame]

Morning kids may I ask is there a new candle in beta for events?

[devout venture]

like its rlly hard to tell but i try to inch forward when like tposing at the blue light until it breaks then move back and stay there

[static dawn]

i kept telling myself this before crying in a corner

[ionic pendant]

It seemed successful enough since I saw the big mask covered in flowers though. ^_^;

[sterile pagoda]

Me and a tiny friend are emoting stars. If you have a butterfly & timid bookworm hair you are funky

[tulip veldt]

i cant join any sheep, btw

[glossy bear]

well technically no, but a bunch of us are determined to keep trying

[spiral mantle]

So if I got this right, we have to form and keep a line from the current checkpoint to the next, and the icon indicates a line break?

[woven flower]

I def feel the crying in a corner right now. The quest is super frustrating and sad for solo player

[solid shuttle]

My waiting room is once again full of rolling people I love this emote honestly

[shell fossil]

Okay admittedly this has been confusing to jump into with minimal instructions,

[craggy bobcat]

Might join you Vale

[shell fossil]

but guys this has been SUPER HELPFUL to test with all these people

[final axle]

I love the lil bob when ya stand still with the rolling emote

[sterile pagoda]

You can try!! idk if merging in servers works rn

[limpid flame]

I noticed that the light stream kept going a little bit ahead, but then doubled back so that it always looked like I was at the tip. This was confusing. If it looks like you're carrying the light, your instinct is to keep carrying it forward.

[burnt remnant]

What's a line? /lh xD

[crisp trout]

i wanna keep trying until we get it but i feel like too many people are gonna give up

[shell fossil]

We've tested this internally dozens of times, but we had over 1000 people for that first go—that was gold

[steep fulcrum]

ayo! if anyone is rollin around with me, one person with the witch hair and other timid bookworm braid, hello! :D

[glossy bear]

wow really?! thats a lot of people; how are you able to see the numbers?

[shell fossil]

Our internal tests can't get anywhere near that

[crisp cedar]

I'm with you. I feel like I have to complete it or I won't sleep well tonight.

[orchid kettle]

Did we confuse the light with too many people clumping backwards instead of forwards?

[crisp trout]

exactly!

[sterile pagoda]

I have gw hair and yeti horns if anyone sees me

[devout venture]

idk the trail being a bit more obvious might help. as much as the symbol helps seeing exactly where the break is would be wonderful. like its painted on the ground or smthn. that way when you move you can make sure you arent leaving a gap

[acoustic sparrow]

The next instructions will be “just stand there and the mask will form a line FOR you guys”.

[limpid flame]

They've probably got their own debugging tools on the backend. Stuff we can't see.

[glass cypress]

Yes please

[tulip veldt]

i think its cuz the first few are pretty close together so they kinda autocomplete by accident but we can't see why

[vital ether]

it was really fun ! i saw your gratitude pendant and i was like Wow this person has been testing for a while didnt expect to meet a dev lol

[glossy bear]

well yeah i expected that, but i cant help but be curious yk

[final axle]

To the two people rolling around with me now, love you guys

[woven flower]

Use the little fairy ring stones to indicate path edges. (((On Brand)))

[spiral mantle]

In that case I would add "keep the line" to the instructions, and maybe a warning saying "the line broke" when the icon appears?

[static dawn]

do you know what's also gold?

dang i dont have image perms here nvm joke has been foiled
for those curious it was gonna be the element table properties for gold

[burnt remnant]

Did the internal test go well in terms of lining up n stuffs? /gen

[rich silo]

Next time there will be upbeat music and we form a conga line while shaking maracas

[ionic pendant]

We need the guide to come along and herd us all into lines and tell us when to move like a bunch of preschoolers. ^_^;

[glass cypress]

I haven't done live dq yet just for this

[shy rock]

Hey it's 02:25🌙 for me, I think i'm gonna try and get some sleep now! This has been so much fun and very confusing! Ily all!

[warm flare]

Is there going to be another season misson test?

[glossy bear]

a bunch of us are still attempting!

[shell fossil]

Yeah, part of the tools we have to keep things going on the back end allow us to see things like this.

[acoustic sparrow]

Exposing yourself as the intern of the company

[humble crown]

Skids failed kindergarten, no playing with the parachute or rolling boards during recess.

[tulip veldt]

you got 2 minutes to do the next one

[shy rock]

I'll finish the joke for you, but as an anti-joke!
You know what's also gold? 💛 - Your heart!

[devout venture]

gonna keep going til i pass kindergarten or fall asleep in line

[rich silo]

Back to whittling a wooden tamagotchi character have fun beta

[ionic pendant]

Wish we could've summoned the platforms in the first part of the test. I wanted to see what was up in the clouds in the Oreo area. ^_^;

[glossy bear]

10 seconds!!

[orchid kettle]

Alright it's been fun guys! It was adorable, confusing, and made me smile and laugh a lot at the chaos. Hope to see it maybe be a bit clearer next time :}

[crisp cedar]

Let's go!

[ocean aurora]

ATTEMPT 3

[devout venture]

we got this!

[nova summit]

Third times the charm

[still jewel]

third times the charm

[kindred trail]

My 4th

[craggy bobcat]

Let’s go!

[crisp trout]

good luck!

[static dawn]

cannot tell if this is a joke or not 😭 i can send images on the other beta channel doe
ty for the confirmation asjkfdhaskjlfasuklfdas

[tulip veldt]

this time for sure

[broken pumice]

[glass cypress]

[final axle]

We can do this You're all amazing!!

[quick stone]

What's happening lol

[humble crown]

Lin3

[dusk valley]

My second but let's goooo

[glossy bear]

WE CAN DO THIS YALL JUST STAND STILL WHEN THE HANDS GO UP

[steep fulcrum]

we can so it!!!!!

[ocean aurora]

I'll be on log duty

[orchid knot]

Alright everybody stand beside a sheep friend and don't move and just... each do that progressively between each lantern

[sterile pagoda]

@sinful agate sorry for ping I was checking if u were in the server LOL. good luck to us

[prime umbra]

Imma skip this one and play it in live later cuz I can’t do this anymore

[orchid kettle]

Ah I tried to go in for a 3rd time but I didn't see a timer. Maybe it finished and I didn't realize we were live. (also yes I tried standing still when my hands went up last go but itkept going forward and back again)

[sinful agate]

Haha good luck!! 😄

[cosmic vine]

i left after the first round to do the dailies, cause i prioritize mental health and personal financial gain 🏄‍♂️

[uncut ginkgo]

I left after the first test because my phone was extremely hot and also I needed to do live cr

[glossy bear]

delicately inching along

[acoustic sparrow]

I left after the second because I got angy >:(

[orchid knot]

Homies line up in the log we need more in the middle

[solar lark]

omg we passed ther log

[solid shuttle]

its always the log help

[white idol]

THROUGH THE LOG WE DID IT

[vital ether]

i think we can do it this time!

[grave stream]

Why does it keep going backwards

[crisp trout]

yes! come on we can do itttt

[burnt remnant]

The good ending.

[proper canopy]

the log got no players

[glossy bear]

WHOEVER THAT IS STOP WALKING AWAAAYYY

[orchid knot]

Fellas move into the log

[woven flower]

Is it actually possible to complete this quest successfully in this build?
And/or Oreo temple quest?

[ocean aurora]

I'm in the way back

[waxen oyster]

As I understood, the quest was about leading the blue light to the fire braziers kinda like guided seasonal spirits like Crab Call. But it didn’t make it across water

[white idol]

I am standing in one spot so hard

[craggy bobcat]

I’m keeping the line stealing, move forward

[fervent crest]

I don't know why, but the people behind didn't catch up. This time I have a feeling that I will fail again

[harsh dagger]

I think, maybe we need more time because we are not skilled at staying in a line 😞 😢

[rich heath]

everyone in my server is in front of the line

[orchid knot]

We have some in the back still working on the other lamps?

[glossy bear]

were gonna do our darnedest

[glass cypress]

Help, log

[proper canopy]

the line is still broke

[tulip veldt]

do sheep not count for us?

[west wyvern]

if you have the light please stop moving

[solid shuttle]

we're so close

[devout venture]

im still on the last lamp for mine 😭

[dusk valley]

Aaaaaa

[waxen oyster]

That light can’t make it across water

[crisp trout]

we’re so close

[grave stream]

oh wow I understand now

[sterile pagoda]

One person is stuck before the log and won’t move so the line is stuck on them. Help

[white idol]

I think... we can't channel the light when swimming? Is that it?

[fervent crest]

I'm guessing in different small rooms in the same big room, our progress is not consistent

[proper canopy]

there are too many gaps

[glass cypress]

Sheep keep disappearing

[woven flower]

Also, what are these sheep y’all keep talking about? All I got was a lot of creepy red eyes in the darkness overcoming me 🙀

[mellow nebula]

This has been SUPER DUPER helpful everyone, I'm going to try to tune this experience for you all

[glossy bear]

that one sheep that keeps moving out of line omggg

[kindred trail]

Hahahha failed

[waxen oyster]

Guys I think the light gets extinguished in the rain

[crisp trout]

noooo we almost had it

[ocean aurora]

people kept leaving the back

[broken pumice]

the last part is difficult the tree is blocking the pathway

[vital ether]

i'm still not really understanding what's happening :')

[empty phoenix]

so close!

[solar lark]

The log checkpoints need to be moved closer, they're too far apart.
The first few checkpoints are easy to get then you suddenly goes to several miles apart

[craggy bobcat]

Yeah

[fast glen]

Sorry. I crashed. It was me😂

[orchid knot]

Okay so Dark Mimic and I have noticed the line is showing at different lamps for us - presumably after we celebrate at one lamp we all should move to the next but our progress isn't matching across all players?

[steep fulcrum]

that went worse than the first 2 times <//3 but i finally sorta understood how to do it!

[devout venture]

ohhhh is it not consistent across groups? because certain people get stuck on previous oness

[dusk valley]

Welp I got farther than last time, so I'll take it

[fervent crest]

Three steps forward the first time, four steps forward the second time, five steps forward this time

[harsh dagger]

Can we have more time? Or have the log checkpoints closer?

[sinful agate]

@sterile pagoda Ah man we tried, I think progress is not consistent??

[crisp trout]

but hey i mean we got closer than last time! should we try again?

[orchid burrow]

There's people who are past the lantern and not forming a line

[kindred trail]

Im not sleeping untill i do this

[broken pumice]

the last part of the lamp is too far away the line keeps breaking before the line can be formed

[sterile pagoda]

Yeah that’s what it seems like. It makes it rly hard for people to work together

[white idol]

I think the water might be preventing us from holding the light, every time I swim I drop it

[twin merlin]

Why do you guys want to be stuck in that tunnel. So frustrating,

[grave stream]

This whole time I thought we were supposed to move with the light in a line but we just need to make a line from the light to the checkpoint

[frosty wasp]

Aight, one more try and then I'm out 💀

[limpid flame]

OK, devs, you have got to work on your directions. I think I got it, and I think one other person got it, but that's two people in the whole group. Am I correct that the line only needs to go between the most recent flower you've reached and the next flower in the sequence?

[glossy bear]

yeah, the first few are really close together but as soon as we get to the lamp for the log, we cant stand there long enough to make it stick

[tulip veldt]

[serene gull]

I give up 😭

[proper canopy]

is it like we need to make a line from current checkpoint to next checkpoint?

[waxen oyster]

I think the blue light can’t make it across water

[glass cypress]

The progress is different for some playerssssss

[rich heath]

it's because we got less ppl in this try

[crisp cedar]

Didn't make it past the first log. It felt like we were close but then a bunch of fuzzies went to the next checkpoint. I wonder if they got the complete sign, but those of us stuck in the first log didn't? 🤔

[craggy bobcat]

Same

[prime umbra]

Oh and I was wondering if you can play ball with more than 2 people? Have you guys tried that?

[tulip veldt]

it is definitely easier to tell whats happening with less sheep

[sterile pagoda]

That’s what happened on my end, everyone went straight to the end, but there was like one or 2 people stuck before the log snd the light was stuck on that

[glossy bear]

it seems like progress is inconsistent between players. some people move out before it registers for everyone

[proper canopy]

I just keep standing around the log, didn't see many players at the front tho

[craggy bobcat]

Whenever I moved it showed me that the line broke

[limpid flame]

Got an experiment. I need 4-5 people to do this with. Only form a line between the most recent flower we've reached and the next one. When we reach that, everyone moves forward to make a line to the one after that. Who wanta to hekp me try this?

[covert bison]

Just failed quest 5 for the 3rd time it’s the part through the logs that messes us up
And I realized I was talking about it in the wrong chat

[mellow nebula]

Good eye! We are still working on that. Actually worked surprisingly well considering we don't network the progress between everyone atm. But that's coming soon.
LOL reply to the wrong comment.

This was about Skye's post about inconsistent progress.

[devout venture]

we should try and see if we can help players stuck on previous lamps. like if we have an impact on their line or not

[craggy bobcat]

My line definitely seemed like it was moving but kept breaking further into the log

[solar lark]

From what I understand, the blue light moves up and creates an area indicted by a blue circle. A player(s) has to stand in this circle for the light to move forward which will create another circle area that requires another player(s). This repeats until it reaches the next checkpoint etc

[glossy bear]

i feel like we also need more time for the quest itself. 5 minutes is difficult if we dont have much players, especially if it keeps breaking like this

[covert bison]

Where’s the light at the log one? I wasn’t sure where we were going

[craggy bobcat]

That it does

[solid shuttle]

My light would suddenly move back like four people's worth of distance even when no one was moving

[glass cypress]

So should we try again or wait for the devs to fix the same progress for all?

[orchid knot]

If all our progress doesn't match then I don't think we'd ever be able to be consistent with moving up the line

[waxen oyster]

I’ll try again

[crisp trout]

im gonna try again

[broken pumice]

fourth time's the charm we got this chat

[orchid galleon]

It's like a carry spirit but with a guard the spot mechanic

[devout venture]

i will as well

[still jewel]

you can go about a good distance from each other as well, i was stuck at the back near the last lamp and i could almost reach the first log from there

[craggy bobcat]

Same for me

[crisp trout]

currently laying curled up waiting for the timer

[orchid knot]

how y'all been doing this quest internally?

[glossy bear]

okay, maybe we try to keep the line for a couple extra seconds BEFORE moving forward to the next checkpoint? that way if someones line doesnt count immediately we'll have a bit more of a chance to get it to register for others

[final axle]

Do we just need to be within one blue-circle distance from one another?

[rich silo]

somehow I imagine like
ya know how in minecraft you have a raid completion bar at the top of the screen
what if the quest had similar but it's like based on how many people are at which checkpoint so it doesn't get scattered
easier to keep track than like
not being able to see others because logs in the way

[zenith storm]

shoutout to the two asleep players, and the two rolling ones with me for the fourth try

[devout venture]

ive noticed you should follow the star visual not the fist bump emote
\

[mellow nebula]

Haha remember the studio isn't big so biggest internal test we had was like 20 people. We're learning and every test we do with you all helps us get there faster!

[glass cypress]

I'm one of the asleep players LMAO

[glossy bear]

haha hi thats me

[sinful agate]

I think if we designate an emote as a "I don't have this part done yet" we can sync progress between us all?

[zenith storm]

eyyyy

[crisp trout]

just lit someone with krill hair 👀

[final axle]

Maybe using the sad if you don't have it yet?

[orchid galleon]

If they were still in the same office I imagine the devs leaning over the desk partitions and yelling "no no go back a little"

[glossy bear]

lets make to signify that

[crisp cedar]

I was rolling around now I'm crabbing out with two other players

[devout venture]

perhaps on dev side they could have us required to hold the line for 5 seconds for system lag. like a small circle pie timer

[orchid knot]

Did it work better with less people? Cause I imagine it was easier to communicate

[zenith storm]

yess that's us

[harsh dagger]

Shoutout to the other two kids being 🦀 with me

[glass cypress]

Lmao, I see that

[glossy bear]

my sneepy player wakes up

[devout venture]

hereee we gooo

[crisp trout]

good luck
we got this guys cmon

[ocean aurora]

take four

[craggy bobcat]

Good luck everyone

[final axle]

lets do dis

[glass cypress]

Shhh

[sterile pagoda]

Oh god I just got server split
Noooooo my friends

[vital ether]

we got it this time we can do it. eventually

[glossy bear]

remember; means we gotta go back to help others! we can do this yall

[ocean aurora]

ima stay on caboose duty

[sinful agate]

Aight, spam sad emote if you see people going forward but you haven't finished your part yet so we know to go back!

[steep fulcrum]

shout out to the person who looks almost identical to my skykid and the one who was doing the tossball emote or whatever it was called!

[astral zealot]

i love the problem solving going on here

[shell fossil]

I need to hop off, but again, a huge thanks to everyone giving their best at the 5th quest today! It was so helpful to get that many people in, especially for the first build of 0.21.5!

Thanks for letting me text wall at you all today too

[eternal hedge]

I was so confused if I should move while being in line and carrying the light(?) lol it took me awhile to get the blue sphere(?) indicates how far we have carried the light(?) over

[rich silo]

I love reading every one of your text walls tbh sago
so detailed and to the point

[glossy bear]

a bunch of us are stuck at log! please come back!!

[zenith storm]

this damn log

[final axle]

I am stuck before the log QwQ

[sterile pagoda]

I’m at the first log

[solar lark]

One person stand in each blue circle

[glass cypress]

I'm so far back and no one is helping

[tulip veldt]

i still dont get what the dna button is

[orchid knot]

What does the line button do for the quest?

[crisp trout]

the first log 😭

[still jewel]

it indicates that line broke

[sterile pagoda]

I’ll wait at the checkpoint between logs
Also I think the log means that the line is out of order

[flint flame]

I’m literally at the beginning and no one’s here 🥲

[tulip veldt]

is it the end of the line marker?

[ocean aurora]

I'm in the way back

[glass cypress]

Me to 😭

[proper canopy]

I'm still at the start of the log

[sterile pagoda]

we got past the checkpoint between logs I think?? At least I did

[zenith storm]

i cry

[devout venture]

second logggg again

[tulip veldt]

ooh we got the log

[craggy bobcat]

I didn’t

[crisp trout]

we definitely need more time on the timer

[ocean aurora]

I think there was some server splitting, I lost some of my caboose buddies and then saw them reappear at the end

[grave stream]

We were doing so good at first

[harsh dagger]

Soooooooooo cloooosee

[sinful agate]

We got further but yeah server splits

[glass cypress]

I'm so far back

[crisp cedar]

I'm confused. The line looks right, but nothing happened. We did eventually get the first log, but it took forever

[steep fulcrum]

either more time or closer check points!!!

[vale glade]

Everyone keeps stopping and themn they don't go anywhere

[proper canopy]

I not even, and I think I got connection error so there was just a few players with me

[orchid knot]

Awww Nick always leaves such sweet thank you messages

[humble crown]

I really wanna see live attempt this version of this quest, just once.

[craggy bobcat]

Yep, I’m done for now

[glossy bear]

yeah we definitely need to get the line completions down first. this is almost impossible with the amount of time and such far checkpoints

[tulip veldt]

friends, i need to go to BED

[waxen oyster]

I was there holding the light and couldn’t move 😭😭 the rest of the people went ahead, but the line was broken

[sterile pagoda]

Yeah I kept server splitting </3 that was so close tho. I think I’m getting the hang of it but it’s so complicated
I’m done for now

[final axle]

How many didn't get to the log?

[zenith storm]

because the light doesn't move and the line keeps breaking as well ;-;

[flint flame]

Anyone got a qr for me to join 😅

[dusk valley]

Wahh we were close on my end

[glass cypress]

The progress is different for everyone and it's messing up the quest

[vital ether]

so is it like client side where everyone has a different checkpoint based on what they did individually, or does everyone move on together and have the same checkpoint? because several people were stuck behind.

sorry, i'm not fully comprehending this quest

[broken pumice]

I reached the log but then the line broke from there

[crisp trout]

yeahh i think im done trying too 😭
there’s not enough people

[mellow nebula]

I promise to make this quest better everyone! I'm glad we get some extra time to test it with such magical people

[glossy bear]

but yeah, im done for now. we tried our best

[sinful agate]

Welp GGs ya'll done for today, we did alright for what it's worth!

[devout venture]

GGs

[crisp cedar]

At one point, the line was perfect but then the person in front of me disappeared.

[steep fulcrum]

[final axle]

We're happy to be helping with the process

[waxen oyster]

We tried 😅

[flint flame]

GGs lol

[twin merlin]

Omg, I give up

[crisp trout]

GGs everyone <3

[glass cypress]

Gg everyone

[limpid flame]

Good night. I look forward to the next test event.

[still jewel]

1st Log Achievement

[devout venture]

i have failed kindergarten /lh

[grave stream]

No one can say we didn't try

[steep fulcrum]

gg!

[twin merlin]

Everyone likes to congregate in that tunnel.

[waxen oyster]

Ggs

[glass cypress]

We tried, we can wait till the devs make the progress for fixed for everyone

[fast glen]

GG 👾

[harsh dagger]

Soooo.... anyone up for one more round?
Our group got so close last time

[safe sun]

X﹏X

[waxen oyster]

I don’t think it’s possible now

[shell fossil]

[crisp trout]

definitely not enough people to keep trying

[orchid knot]

Thanks so much for all your hard work! It's always fun to partake in the chaos, but hopefully it's not too difficult to fix

[waxen oyster]

Yeah

[harsh dagger]

But what if we all merge our sessions ?

[glass cypress]

Goodnight everyone, I gotta speed run dq on live on since I didn't do it for this event

[devout venture]

i think we should let the devs iron out some fixes and changes first before we continue

[steep fulcrum]

good night!! :D

[sterile pagoda]

This drained my phone completely I gotta go charge

[glossy shore]

What if we were both fluffy sheep in separate servers, what if we merged our instances together? 🥺

[ocean aurora]

Who up going for attempt 5

[orchid knot]

Well that was certainly an interesting experience but it's late here and I forgot live existed so I'm gonna grab dailies and go sleep, night beta buds enjoy the rest of your day breaking 217740

[crisp cedar]

I agree.....but I'm also going to try it one more time.

[orchid galleon]

Bubba kept phasing in and out of existence, it was hysterical

[glossy bear]

i came back, my friend wanted to try

[spiral thunder]

take 5 baby

[devout venture]

going at it 1 more time friend passed out on me

[orchid galleon]

I gave up and decided to go eat soup instead

[carmine badge]

Me not being able to test rn is like what’s going on

[glossy bear]

crying in stuck

[ocean aurora]

Some people are standing too far ahead

[carmine badge]

😂😂😂

[crisp cedar]

So....it seems like this is impossible with three people

[glossy bear]

theres only 5 of us with me

[harsh dagger]

You have 3? We only have 2 😭

[ocean aurora]

Hardcore connect the dots

[final axle]

You guys have other players??

[glossy bear]

stuck at first log

[ocean aurora]

My server didn’t even get to the logs 💀

[devout venture]

god same

[final axle]

Same same

[hardy thicket]

Am i the only one confuse about the seasonal quest 5?

[crisp cedar]

At least we all survived. That's the only thing I can say after that last try 😆

[spiral thunder]

that didnt go well lol

[orchid burrow]

we need more time

[hardy tide]

Enligthen me please. The quest was 5th quest right?

[harsh dagger]

Tall person with fuzzy almost yeti hair, thank you for sticking around with the rainbow beanie chibi

[final axle]

Well, we tried and hopefully that's given the devs something substantial to work with

[spiral thunder]

i was holding the light the whole time but no one in my server would link with me to pass it along

[crisp cedar]

That was probably me! We tried our best, but it seems like we had too little people.

[ocean aurora]

I am the back of the line’s strongest soldier

[devout venture]

i swear the one before the first log always goes off in a weird direction for me

[vale glade]

How long is this going to go on?

[spiral thunder]

these mega servers arent dependable while doing this lol we gotta get like, all in same server

[crisp cedar]

I want to try again, but I'm worried about not being with anyone in the next round

[glossy bear]

yeah im done now, sorry

[harsh dagger]

I mean... I'm gonna keep trying but I do not control the way instances merge

[ocean aurora]

As much as I wanna continue we’re probably only gonna have less and less people each time

[spiral thunder]

that might be better who knows lol

[devout venture]

doing pullups next to someone snoozing

[fresh silo]

Did the play test already start?

[glossy shore]

It's already done

[harsh dagger]

Me (rainbow beanie chibi) and another person are getting stronk together doin so many pullups

[glossy bear]

the stress test over an hour ago? yeah we finished

[spiral thunder]

i have merged with you

[devout venture]

:0000

[fresh silo]

I thought it was 7:30 pst? So I waited until my time 9 pm since it would be 7 pm pst time?

[glossy bear]

im PST, it started at 5:30

[devout venture]

honestly im prbby friends with like half this chat but i dont know who yall are

i do the one candle ghost manuever

[fresh silo]

Oh I must’ve read wrong! 🥲 well rip to me💔

[harsh dagger]

Some of us are still trying to do the quest

[ocean aurora]

I’m all alone

[devout venture]

6th times the charm

ogod theres so few puffs

[harsh dagger]

This is fine

[spiral thunder]

GO WE CAN DO THIS

[crisp trout]

sobbing i came back a bit too late and now there’s like 4 ppl here and my progress isn’t synced

[ocean aurora]

Dunno if we have enough people to make the next checkpoint

[crisp trout]

i dont think we do

[spiral thunder]

we're too close to each other

[harsh dagger]

1 people is enough right?

[crisp trout]

someone keeps poofing in and out of existence and it’s breaking the line 😭

[crisp cedar]

The line is perfect, but there's not enough people 😔

[spiral thunder]

all the poofs just vanished okay

[devout venture]

this log

[crisp trout]

not enough people 😔

[harsh dagger]

I was in a session with 2 ppl and then I guess we server split and I was all alone

[crisp cedar]

I was at the end of the line in the log, but unfortunately there wasn't enough people to finish it off

[ocean aurora]

I was towards the beginning behind the log

[crisp trout]

i was stuck on the checkpoint before the log

[stable comet]

so did anyone manage to know how the 5th quest work? one person has to stay behind or do we all have to rush to the spot?

[devout venture]

im never flying through this log ever again. it will never see the light footsteps of my skid. the path it makes shall forever be forlorn. its wood aged with the last of usage. i scorn this log. its children will never be given a glance from me. this log is my lifelong enemy

[solar lark]

This

[spiral thunder]

you have to make a chain of people to pass the light along

[crisp cedar]

I tried to go back and help, but it wouldn't let me. So I guess this knocks the theory of helping those who weren't able to move forward. You can't if you're through.

[stable comet]

i was standing in one but it didn't move

[glossy bear]

neither honestly. we have to stand in a spaced line from flame to flame. if one person is a bit too far away or moves out of line, we dont progress to the next flame.

but right now, the progress is out of sync; some people register and some dont, so we leave people behind without meaning to

[twin merlin]

There is a checkpoint after going through the two tunnels (logs). But no one wants to form a line to that checkpoint. Why? Try coming out of the log people.

[stable comet]

does it also mean if there isn't enough players , we can't complete it solo?

[spiral thunder]

you stand in the circle to create a link, and then someone has to stand a head of you to create another link and so it continues on

[glossy bear]

"try coming out of the log" we get stuck before that

[crisp trout]

im here with a bunch of puffs but no non-puffs and i cant join anyone
insert the “all by myseeeeeelf” song

[harsh dagger]

There's a very large poof near me that must be a giant in disguise

[twin merlin]

We almost made it to that checkpoint but people kept going backwards into that log.

[crisp trout]

who’s spamming cry with me 👀

[crisp cedar]

I wonder if this quest would be easier if you could chat with the others. That way, you could coordinate the route better.

[harsh dagger]

That is maybe me

[stable comet]

bbut language barrier might be an issue.. or not...

[steel rose]

there’s always the translation function, when it’s functioning

PS unrelated. i just watched suzume. so good
