Lumen i was your early partner sorry for hopping out and in for science
i made it past the fish bones, but i have no idea how to get to the last? checkpoint š«
walk very slowly across the water š
Cry probably
I DID IT !!!! and it only took me 30 minutes! :D
Yay!! Congratulations!
thank youu, i think i lost a few braincells 
Were you alone?
yup, not even sheep around sadly
and i entered the waiting room with plenty of time, that's odd...
I think thatās why you were able to complete it.
time to make it a solo quest only
I think everyone is at the rainbow event area. You happened to choose a good time to do it.
Do other people have this problem, where every few seconds I have pop up message "too much players, try later" and I can't move until it disappears in 12 seconds ?
So for quest 5 does the light not like you if you're swimming? If that's the case I don't think really short players are able to do certain parts of it. ^_^;;
can we upgrade our uhh test sky ver or do we have to use the link whenever there's an update (for the season or something)
What do you mean by link? You should be able to update it from the store
Ohhh ok!! I thought you gotta use the beta invite links
Nope! Once you're in beta, you can just update like normal :)
Also where does the invite link come? And when? Cuz itās already time
okay ^^!!
@thin lion there's not going to be new beta invites today, the test assumes you're already a beta tester
Sorry!!! I was confused lmao
no worries! get the beta invites role from the FAQ and you'll get pinged when there is a new wave of invites (we do not know when they are)
Imma try turning off wifi 
btw can you only do the quests during the test/set time? ive been missing the group play test because it didnt match my schedule
You can do them anytime. It's every 15 minutes that they start, not just during play tests
I wonder how these quests will work once the season is over. Will it be like Assembly quests, where you have to ask specifically for other people to join you in completing them?
Oh gosh yeah. Once the season is over the moths who come and do these quests will have a very difficult time I feel. Even worse than the assembly multiplayer ones⦠remind me why again tgc decided a group 8+ aurora concert style is necessary for this season?
I canāt think of any good reason why they thought this
The sensory overload, the confused coordination, the deliberate trolling
Moths will legit need to make a whole group chat on VC just to do these quests lol
This is why you can't really trust beta feedback. We will always try our best to complete the quests and discuss how they should be performed. Once this hits Live, and in particular those who are not on Discord or any other social media, good luck
Almost need a looking for group message board in game/at home if they keep requiring large groups to finish quests so you can shift to the same server after the season finishes
The good thing is that they donāt require you to do the quests at all, just relive the spirits, to get the seasonal ults.
But I could def see moths rage quitting over these. Even if the devs do change things before it hits live I feel like live is gonna have the same type of trouble coordinating just the same
But you have to do the quests to get those extra masks. Plus, we don't know yet if these quests will bring something specific to the season at the end. Lots of players like completing them just for the experience also
Quest 3 was solo able, have not tried 4th and 5th yet.
How many ticket do we have in this event? 2 or 4? I just find 2 ticket
Beta is a bunch of veterans who know the game through and through try out new things. We never know how moths will react or what kinds of trouble they will get into. If a quest is hard and confusing to us, then it will be nearly impossible for those who started playing a week ago, who might then get frustrated and ragequit
There are 4 tickets in the Oreo area and 4 from quests
The 4 āfrom questsā was just from one pig sitting at a rainbow destination quest at the moment.
I absolutely know how they'll react to these confusing mechanics: they'll shrug and hold each other's hand and fly into the sunset
That makes so much sense! 
Nah they hold hands and fly to #questions-and-help
Maybe they just hold hands
is it only for me that teleporting to the seasonal area via the season guide is crashing the game?
actually... i can't go into any portal in home, or is it just isle of dawn??
no... i can go into the other realms, but isle of dawn freezes my game :(
i wonder what happened to the memorial of the little prince
it wasnāt the memorial of the little prince, it was the memorial of a TGC Staff member. It has been moved to a different place in starlight desert now 
OHHHH , i see , sorry if I mistaken it that way I didn't know ! ! 
may I ask where it is ?
iām not entirely sure, but i think itās in the area of Starlight Desert in the direction of Eden, the place you have to go to do the second to last TLP quest. not sure exactly where it is and i could also be wrong
Once you hit the campfire that tlp was at during the second to last quest, go left.
ty!!!
Ty to whoever was the person with the witch hat that was doing the quest with me 
Unfortunately I had to leave š
I'm going to try the fifth quest! Let's see if I can complete it this time without quitting. 
good luck!
I gave up again. The light got stuck near the meditation hut and wouldn't move. But on the plus side, I did learn that you can take your plushies with you when you travel over to the other side. You just need to be holding it while you're sitting down next to the mask.
does anyone know when days of music will be for live?
Please keep an eye on #news for information about that
Please keep an eye on TGCās official announcements in #news and/or their social media
am i missing something? because im seriously not seeing anything in news channel about that. if its currently unknown you can just tell me that? 
We as beta testers don't know when things will happen in Live. We don't know prices, we don't know dates. You have to wait for an official announcement in #news 
ohh. yeah i just needed something straightforward like that! the ālook at newsā thing kinda confused me
āKeeping an eyeā means to wait for information
my bad, i interpreted that phrase differently. i thought it meant like āpay attention, because if you paid attention you wouldve knownā, sorta implying the news is already out and i just missed it
Well, you could look up last year date and it shouldn't be that different this year, maybe?
We havenāt had a Days of Music before
hmm harmony hall open may 23rd but I guess that's too early
yknow that might not be too early actually? at the moment i think every days of events is around the second half or the end of a month, eg fortune is at the end of january, love the second half of february, bloom end of march, nature end of april, and rainbow at the end of june, for last year at least, and currently there isnt an event for the end of may yet so it sounds like an appropriate time for it. but its pure speculation
I didnāt make it to the play test yesterday. Is the rainbow puzzle broken?
The rainbow puzzle is really cool but it's a bit overwhelming haha
I wonder why there aren't any PS bug testers
I know Switch can't be bugtested because of Switch rules, but what about PS?
Prolly a similar story
Every open beta I've seen for the ps has a really limited time frame, like around a week or so
itās def the same on ps
I see
I wish we could play test on console. Unfortunately all of the ps play testing was done internally and we only saw snippets of it incidentally.
Oh sorry for the ping. 
Look closer at their name, they say to please ping them

Oh good. I wasn't paying attention.

Goodnight beta chat, get lots of rest for me!!! I hope you had an amazing today and a wonderful tomorrow :) Iām so proud of all you have all accomplished and excited to see where you all go next, take amazing care of yourselves! And rest up today alright? For you have a long journey ahead,
Goodnight beta chat! 
I just completed my fifth quest. This time I was alone from the beginning to the end.
The blue light followed me very carefully and I have no complaints!šµāŗļø
This would not have happened if there were other players.
(I was hoping no one would come until the quest startedš)
is the saxophone not in testing anymore?
I couldn't find the ticket and the items in the music shop
No, not currently in testing
this is getting frustrating already... am i the only one not being able to enter isle of dawn? i want to do my quests
are you still not able to enter isle? I can test out the area real quick if you are
I can enter isle just fine, both from home and from the guide
im still not able to, i tried from home and from the guide
I'll try right now, one moment
I can enter Isle from the portal and from guide too.. 
Can you send a video of what happens when you try to enter Isle via both methods?
And what device are you using?
it just freezes the game when the screen turns white and it never shows the area
the device is a Motorola Moto g8 Power
maybe it's an issue with the app? should i try reinstalling it?
the weird thing is, even when sky had those major crashing issues, like the black screen incident, or the one where you couldn't leave home at all or your game would crash, my phone wasn't affected by it
Hmm, report it in beta bugs first, do you wanna try going to Isle via friend and seeing if it could be the issue with just the method and region of teleport*
i can't rlly do it rn, but i think that's a good idea
i'd report it as a bug and try to join a friend? and see if it gets fixed with the update tomorrow ?
Alright, let me know when you can (that is, if you need someone to help)
i also thought about trying to go there via the prophecy area using the wind paths
It is the furthest from both teleport regions, so it might work
Another thing is that the guide teleport might not be working because it teleports you to the start of Isle first I believe
please send a DM, and when im able to, i'll contact you 
excuse me the what tomorrow?
I've not had a chance to keep up with beta over the weekend, are we getting another doot? 
Hi Bubba!
Hello Tide! How's that purgatory life treating you?
Also just double checked update notes, I completely forgot we have another group test coming up for the season 
Purgatory still has me hostage and I can't speak to my chinese friend.. Hbu?
Never trusting a grouptest ever again
Purgatory started off "hehe I'm in the water" and has become "oh ho save me my beta kid's legs are tired of treading water" 
Honestly this weekend has been chaos for me and I remember reading about the playtest cause the time is early compared to usual for me, but I don't know how well it'll end up going given the last bunch of playtests we've done! 
Hoping devs have managed to get the quests to do what they're supposed to this time round 
It started off with "ooh, gay pants!" and suddenly "Server issues oh jesus"
I always see the playtests and I would actually do them if I didn't hate going into groups š
What has been happening with the quests? 
The few we've had during 21.5 have been a mix of "what's going on" and "it's broken", so it's been interesting but I know that Nick has been back and forth often to try and figure things out for the 5th quest especially, so hoping that one will at least work out tomorrow!
Plus I didn't get to see anything to do with the 4th quest, so it'll be good to actually try that out too
Definitely can be overwhelming though, especially with the big groups so if it's too much then I'd leave feedback about it 
I've been begging for the 'concert' feature to be toggleable because I can't play Passage at all because the massive groups ruin the experience 
I'm just hoping it'll be added in a later update since I see the same opinion from a ton of other people
It's just the waiting game of waiting to see if the hopes and prayers reach TGC..
Post season would probably be less chaotic with the crowd feature, but also it might end up like assembly where we end up looking for players to help out forever 
Yea, scheduled for the group test
tbh it was wayyyy easier to run it by myself, it just took longer
At least you can do it solo
until you merge randomly and the light is like NEW FRIEND, GONNA GO SAY HI-
More like time to be a menace to these poor tired overworked children
me sobbing as I go back to grab the light for the fourteenth time that lamp, meanwhile the quest is laughing at my suffering
I came to a realisation after staring at the quests in the guide tree that quest 4 n 5 are swapped for items in there
Raccoon is supposedly quest 5 but the mask is in the quest 4 unlock spot
they don't know how to line up either
I've been saying, I can unlock the raccoon mask early that way but meh
Better than the thanos mask
Though the cutscenes for both quests are swapped, I'm not sure if they're planning for the quests to be swapped around in later builds
Are all the wind tunnels bugged?
I can not get to hermit valley via the wind tunnel, get get to where the music just starts then I am kicked back
Yea, Hermit Valley Wind Path is bugged atm iirc, the other ones aren't though
I think y'all's hermit wind path just doesn't like you since mine works just fine 
Mine kicks me out the first time but not the second
guys, is the message in beta faq that talks about beta invite waves supposed to have a no access indicator on it? its there for me and idk why.
no access indicator? do you mean there is a link you can't click? because there are currently no invites, so that might be the reason
yeah, like that, so itll open when there are invites?
yes, there will be a ping to those who have the role and then a special invite channel opens, iirc
oh ok, ty. if im in the beta tester program but dont have beta downloaded is it possible for me to get it at any time tho? just wondering cause google play always says its full
you can get lucky and someone leaves, which opens up a spot. otherwise you will just have to wait for an invite wave
You need to download the app for Beta when the invite link is posted, after the link fills up, youāre unable to download it until another invite wave. You wonāt be able to get in at any time unless youāre a very lucky person on Android.
(This is coming from what Iāve heard about random spots opening up on Android, I canāt confirm it. Also take what I say with a grain of salt because Iām an IOS player. (wheeze))
Any word on the missing realm seasonal candles today? Assuming itās a scheduling error, since the season ends in 14 days and quests redeem as seasonal candles.
Oh wacky. Just logged back in and now theyāre there.
Man live people are not liking quest 2
Did we like it even� 

Can anyone send me a 360 clip of confetti pants(fur white), without cape and anything, just pants. Thank you
We're not allowed to do outfit requests in beta
It might be, it was happening to me too (except I was picking up more but struggling with joystick drift)
More confusion for quest 2 in live :( no timer. People donāt know what to do or canāt see anything with the sheep. For all the people saying that these other quests will be fixed before they make it to live Iām less and less confident :/
Hii
it definitely has been like that in beta since the later builds 
I had a timer for live š¤ seems to be different people having different issues
The event is about to start <t:1682977800:R>, I'm ready for an update
We're hoping to post one soon! Will ping when it goes out 
Letās hope the ping works because itās cutting it close 
2 hours
I hope it doesn't take too long for droid users to get the doot or for testflight to not tell me whenever it drops 
I wish I could use my doot emote in the chat š
Doot
This build includes testing for:
- Seasonal quest updates
- Bug fixes and improvements
And also,
- Group playtest

The playtest starts in an hour. It's 4:30 am for me 
Have folks had a chance to download the build? Jk wrong time But fingers crossed Android gets their update soon!
Waiting for the android
Still no droid doot. ^_^;;
Will android make it in time
If it doesn't make it in time for quest 5 there's still quest 4, hopefully
Android still hasn't received the update, I'm worried about getting it in time for the beta
Just a heads upāif you've been logged into the previous build that was released on Friday, we ask that you exit the app and wait until the build becomes available for you.
Please do NOT join the playtest today on the older build. Doing so will send server info that will make it harder for the teams to know if groups of Sky kids are being put in different instances like we want them to.
(Gonna be cross-posting this)
I have arrived
I hope this quest goes smoothly
mfw the update isnt available on my device yet š
Me too
also no update yet
Iām here and ready to go. 10 minā¦
That sucks, don't log in until then though
gotta love android
Anyone try the 5th quest solo? I did it this morning. My 4th attempt over the past week and finally did it. š¤£
we need a line-making playlist to listen to, so far I got Jump in the Line by harry belafonte and hold the line by toto
I completed task 5 with one of my friends about 10 hours ago. One of us stood in the middle of two braziers, and the other stood at the position of the next brazier, forming a broken line, thus completing the task.
When I try to finish it alone, the blue light is always blocked by the items on the terrain and returns to the position of the previous brazier
we need a little walking dance move too
moon walk emote when?
!omgomgwhen
No one knows when things will happen in Live
Any Live announcements will be made in #news!
this is how we get this quest done: conga line dance move
Where is the update for Android?
it's not here yet 
lost on the way to google
š
Doot is here
at last testing not when i am sleeping and that google, ruining everything
Thereās no one here š³
ok i have smuggled my plushie in
yesss, it is here
Playstore has impeccable sense of timing
I may be late to the test though cuz of the updoot issues and google 
Same
There's no one in my waiting room? Is this normal?
I'm with dark and some other kids but no sheep so far
54% updated~
I opened beta to cr and it said there was an update, then it took me to a page saying they aren't accepting new testers š§š»āāļø
ready for testing
22% 
I donāt see any sheep yet either 
Oh they all just popped up
It's heavy and the download doesn't complete slowly
go to your usual place to update, not through the app cause it takes you to the page to get into the test programme - so playstore or testflight whichever you're on
whew i made it on time 
goobers have been located 
ohh okay thank you, that worked! it's never done that before so I was confused haha
It can also help to clear your Play Store cache, too
There's still 5 minutes until the quest starts-
OH GOD THE SHEEP
I see sheep now!
alright we can do a line this time right guys?
I SEE YOU GOOBER BUBBA 
Now a flock of sheep has appeared!
My android JUST GOT THE DOOT SEE YA SOON ā¤ļø
Oh thereās the sheep 
GAME FINISHED UPDOOTING LESGO
I can't even load into the game
Mines like 1% away
I am afraid of the light not following me at the end again with this many people 
download Completed
I crashed right when I was friending someone in the trial waiting area and now the game is struggling to load 
oh my god with 2.5 minutes to spare 
wooo successfully updated 
i was rolling around with someone and they friended me and immediately disappeared 
Run! š
Finally updated but now I've been sent to the water
Who kidnapped half the sheep
They got goobered
ok just for fun I have added chumbawumba to the playlist
Android doot finallyš
That was me! Hi there, my game crashed
ohā¦.my neck accessory carried this time 
Iām wearing the orange scarf
help a ton of goobers just evaporated
"i get knocked down, but i get up again!"
monkee here i come
That was me! Hello! :)
Some of you are wee little lambs on my screen instead of sheep and it is adorable
weāre waiting at the raccoon quest first correct
hi!! sorry i crashed you lol
HEEEE WEEEE GOOOOO 
The one in the area way in front of Forest temple, yes
It's all good, I think the servers be struggling a bit haha š
letsgo
gah update just installed
okay we can do it everyone we can make a straight line this time
Got in with 6 seconds to go before the quest started 
oh my goodness, night prairie
my dream come true
Wait I don't see anyone there 
Alright, 5th quest here we go!
I too am alone in my lobby
I barely made it nvm
we're doing good!!
look out team: LOGS
holy heck the completion speed this time
I didn't manage to get there in time
but I'll join the 4th quest after. Good luck guys!šŖ
I can't believe my server got through the first log it's never happened XD
Casually doing my boneyard cr
People are going so fast I'm confused
Omg team we are killin it 
Why the countdown always resetted
the little cave with the couple of candles doesn't have a spirit gate
My group actually doing it 
we were doing so good
It's still messed up at that one spot
At the bridge? That's where I'm stuck
i think this checkpoint (the one near the skeleton) is a little too far away from the rest and now everything is sorta falling apart
we. have sheeped pulling it into crying spirits cave
Do we all need to go back to kindergarten to learn how to make a line?
there are sheep all over and the light isn't even that far ahead, fall back shepherds fall back
bold
all our sheep are gone?
Who is moving the light away from the bridge come on 
I was yetted out
Oh bye sheep
at least there's no fail timer this time 
the way my line is zigzagging right now š
my years of randomly jumping around sky is pulling off 
Well since i cant join, i went to quest 4 to wait. I really like the sound the mask makes.
I go wuest 4. 5 is a fail on my side
Begging y'all to stand in a line and not a clump please
all the sheep in my server just poofed...?
and they back now
Was almost to the end but everyone just vanished for me
why is there a sudden timer 
Why is the progress of the blue light different from the perspective of different people!
I've reached the finish line and my friend hasn't finished the penultimate brazier
the way the line follows the ONLY sheep who's not in the line lol
We have sheep, we donāt have sheep. Itās strange
I'm at the back of my line and the ones further up have lost the plot 
Thats what i mean on my side. The quest us about to begin but a sudden timer already began
just make me do fire trial hardmode for the 5th quest idc this ain't it
I was drowning in the water and the line just poofed
WEE DID IT
Oh finally
YAYY
GO TEAM!!!!
WE DID IT!!
my side the line is still trying to form i canāt tell whatās going on
!jumbo 
Everyoneās gone for me
Yay
we dont have a line ?
Are there still folks trying to finish the 5th quest?
oh is quest 4 meant to start in 3 mins?
whoever does the server emotes we need a moth letsfreakinggo emote for moments such as these 
Sagomay it's broken for us
pere the line is still trying to form from my perspective
We're testing the one starting at half past the hour
If you can join the one at 3:15 it doesn't hurt, but we're aiming for 3:30 
Yay!!!
Okay we finished but I don't know how or what happened 
Onto butterfly fields fellow victorious beta testers! 
:o server errors but it could potentially be my internet?

One minute more for wuest 4
there's quite a few ppl here in prairie already 
Everyone abandoned the mission, Iām begging to join the crowded server for this quest 
In this build, if you look at a message boat, message candle, shared memory recording, etc. it will cause a server error message to appear--you can get out of it by restarting the app though
The test for Quest 4 is at 3:30 Pacific!
40s to wuest 4
Time to bail out and do the next one then?
We're aiming to start gathering at 3:20
Please join the queue for the 4th quest at 3:20
What if I do both? 
gonna roll around the fields in the meantime 
Letās see if I can update in time
Night prairie is nice
love how weāre still stuck trying to complete quest 5
im givin up on quest 5 š
Any reason why I cannot find the medi spots, also 4th and 5th quests are not showing as available in my QG tree?
We tried quest 5 team š
already tried 4th quest pre test and letās just say
it made me feel unbridled rage and i didnāt even manage to finish it!
You guys do have 15 minutes to completer 5 and get to butterfly fields. Thankfully the quest isnāt far away.
they're not available from the tree, we're going directly to their locations in the levels
okay quest 5 finished on its own LOL i got the wax
cy you looked like you were carrying it but i didnt see anything
Check the screenshot a couple posts above my last post in #beta-announcements for the exact spot of the 4th quest
peregrine how were you in both mine and cy's servers 
yeah that was the case for me looking at everyone else tbh
BUT I FINISHED THE QUEST THAT!S WHAT MATTERS
you saw me as a person ?
I just didn't see cy anywhere as a sheep
megaserver multiverse
I can interact and friend people not in my quest
i dunno, im a beta tester not a network engineer š
Everyone at the 4th quest yet?
wait youāre still testing?
here and waiting
is there supposed to be no crowd mode emote menu at the bottom for this one
or timer
we need to move bubbles to cover the masks to make them go poof or something
i see a timer at mines but no crowd emotes
i see other skids but no sheep at all
Hm i see no fuzzies atm.
Im alone in quest
Butterfly Plain at night
brought an oreo and crab plush into quest 4 
aaa where 4th quest location
Im in a normal 8 player server
Just finished 
I faded the quest 4 then git resseted again for 7 minutes
ooo night prairie, peetty
Oh got the Hollow Knight puffballs now!
oh the emote bar finally loaded in, weird
only when I lit up other players
Crashed waiting for 4th! Eek
Second server now with many sheeps. Msybe 20sheeps
thanks, it's past midnight and my brain is melting
i got myself stuck in the infamous praire lobby oob where only naughty chibis end up
we got an emote menu
The orange globe cant be pulled. Its moving away on its own
I don't like the monkey sheep
woow this place is so full of fluffy sheeps
Do the number of masks correspond with how many skykids need to push the ball?
Android players are Lost in the 4Āŗ quest
we dont have any sheeps š¦
Only a few in mine
y'all doing the quest already?
monkey goober is my least favourite type of goober
it took a good 5 mins before I saw any sheep
My game crashed and lost my group 
Sky gym while waiting lol
It hasnāt started yet
Same!
3 minutes left
i saw a monkey sheep, here, with me.
in the inescapable praire lobby underground oob
I was too busy rolling around with chook to see monkey sheep but they're here now and in my nightmares
How do the 4st quest?
THE MONKEY GOOBERS JUST EVAPORATED
I went straight to the fields after forest and it was 28 sec before start... slay
Head to the spot in Butterfly Fields in Prairie that's in the screenshot a couple posts up in #beta-announcements, @arctic bison!
nooo we all split, only a few sheeps are left
oh I see the ash monkey goober
Server split!
I canāt join others
Oh I saw two players doing the roll emote, are you by chance in a server watching three skykids doing pull-ups?
Only 6 monksheep on my side
Suddenly more sheep
Oof my game crashed again trying to friend someone in the lobby I was going the sneaky and rolling emotes with 
Okay less than a minute now but for real
Lol are you in my group?
I kept getting a server error pop-up so I'm restarting the game. Hope I make it in time. š
Canāt join anyone
No I don't see any pull-up kids 
lets push these fish eggs, team!
Iāll send a pic in #beta-screenshots-videos 
here we goooo
Same
Here we go oh boy 
we got this
oh boy
are we doing cell division osmosis here
No. Just no. Already. I dislike the
after quest 3
Im alone i guess
let's go fellow sheep :DDD
Aw man, it didn't let me join in time
Good luck ya'll!
It was actually not intuitive that to form a line you should stay at very beginning and let others go ahead
I was too curious what is there at the end 
WHERE THE ORB GOING
....I didn't make it, did I? š
What the heck 
Hard concept to make a line
help how does this work
thereās an orb thatās just refusing to move from the candle cave entrance
this one is so painful with other players askdjha
Welp I'll be in the second group starting in like 12ish minutes if anyone else crashed before it started
Make a line to transfer the blue line all the way to the end
i can see that i am working with kids who do not know about the laws of physics
the light is going oob
why are they doing what they want
I tried to push the ball but it went up into the air... Kinda confusing...
nobody in my server has understood what we're supposed to do
pondering the orb
the ball doesnāt want to move at all the heck
the orbs aren't listening 
there is one ball left that is not in the clouds
wait did the quest just "start" 
Iāve got no clue whatās going on
suddenly i got a timer
oh my god if you walk right up to it you kick the ball
the beginning cutscene was a lie
My skykid gave up and is just trying to kick the light orb but it doesn't move 
This isnāt going well
we got an orb stuck 
I should practice football at dream village more š¤
I literally have no skills in pushing
iāve been left iām alone and scared in a field of goobers
i give up
quest 5 tests geometry quest 4 tests physics 
It's gone up a wall, I'm so done
the one in the cave is in fact not moving
that
Ahaha 
Omg!!!!!
oh, that was fun
we did. something. not sure if it was the right thing but it certainly was something
I feel like if the movement of the balls were more responsive to players this would be way less frustrating
Almost one moved to the clouds but we made it xD
One just started ascending in the cave
Team 6 masks 
welp
The orange ball of light is doing movements that do not conform to the laws of physics
Im still confused on how we pushed it exactly but oh well
what...I just got it completed
Aw lost my group 
what is this quest.
I think my group was successful. We were on vc so we could coordinate
Its clueless. It not tugging to where it should
Zero for two on the quests. Why so hard. š„“
welcome to season of passage, the most infuriating set of quests to exist 
it was certainly one of the quests of all time
Still confused as to what happened 
So like, how many had to be done? All of them?
Yep, we're talking about the server stuff that was causing trouble with the spheres like that!
oh hey no light recharge for this one after leaving
legitimately my least fav season quests ever š what is going on
ufff, no conection
What a mess, but it was fun tho 
I have the same question
The spheres cant be tugged
some of the ball things just ascended into the sky randomly 
Bugs is what's going on 
There always be a person who kicking to the other direction
Today's test is over?
None of them moved
I failed the quest. 
Ditto
Yeah the spheres did not listen at all 
PLEASE MUM TGC I DONT WANT TO GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY WITH THE OTHER KIDS
my fav feature is that you can kick the spheres that helped with the anger management
Left with no light after failing.
They went everywhere you didnt want them to go
Iām going in again for round 2 this is very interesting 
i tried to push to the bigger hill and ball wanted to roll back 𤣠i was: heeeelp
aaaa come on, the light bolted 1 meter away from the masks š
round 2 it is
I've tried to kick one off the cloud but feels like it went back in
Thanks for everyone who stuck around for the 3:00 and 3:30 tests!
one of our spheres got stuck in the clouds at the edge of butterfly fields because it wasnt following our directions and we couldn't get it out š
It rolled over on top of me then got pushed the wrong way
Im in third test
going in for a round two please hope i donāt go insane 
the weirdest thing was like
the ball would be super off from the masks but apparently it was actually absorbing them?
like off by several meters
I agree. I don't hate the season quests myself, but they are certainly not the best
1:40 am bye I should sleep to work at 8am
Have fun everyone
I believe that I did the last one on my own? After I managed to get one the quest ended.. But idk how many had to be done? Did all the others just fly away, or did they also had to get captured??
The 5th test was t finished either 
by the back exit to the wind towers? that was with me if so 
Also a sphere got stuck in the small cavern, couldn't move out of there
Stuck in the clouds 
I couldn't complete the mission in timeš
This is the first time the 4th quest has been beta tested š So now's the time for bug reports
It completed, dunno how, but I'm glad that there is a minimum of masks that need to reach the orb for it to be completed and not all of āem 
i think this quest was the simplest, you just have to push the light to the masks... the thing is the light doesn't always listen 
So its done right
wrist is too sore to do it again š¦
what's the location of the 5th quest?
I kept getting stuck in the ball 
i think 4th quest is my favorite
I do like the quests in concept but theyāre definitely a bit confusing and still need some refining
such is beta of course, but I really wasnāt sure what the ball was doing 
I wonder how people in live would finish both of them after season end š¤
Would be hard to form a line 
Still waiting in the lobby, I don't see anyone and there's less than two minutes left.
I also want to know this
the 5th quest is cool but I don't see how it's possibly do-able a year from now or two years when no one is around to help. Similar to the assembly quests but at least you could potentially find 3 people to help with those.
the 4th quest seems like it'd be easier solo so that ones fine once the orbs are less finicky
I did my best halfway through the quest, but I ran out of time...š£
That's interesting. One fluffball showed up. I tried to join them and it failed. Now I see everyone.
Several people have been able to solo it. Just takes a while
in 5th quest, my groupe of people did great, but in friend's group, people didn't moved forward and idn't done last part...
It seems that the physics engine behaves strangely on all tasks of transporting or interacting with light
Light is not moving as expected
I actually really like quest 4 but itās too buggy rn
Im on third run
These are all designed to be easier with more people, but still possible to do with few others or even solo
will say, the beginning cutscene is a lie because it doesnāt tell you you can kick the ball
4th is probably my favourite so far :D once it's fixed it'll be awesome
The kicking is my favorite partšāØ my skykid was so done with the stuck ones
5th task mask medi? Near manta area in broken bridge. It's playing hide n seek with me, I can't find it?
love kicking the thing like Y U NO MOVE
Wait how do you kick it? 
Run at it
move right up to the center orb and your skid will do the kicky
goshh, people steeling balls š¤£
the lights are too stubborn rn
I think the lights have sensory issues and prefer fewer people around 
Woohoo finished 4th!
The second time, all masks are done!
Not my kid waving bye to the masks all jolly like I didn't just lose brain cells trying to kick these damn orbs around
got one stuck in candle cave š
i ressign from doing the 5th and 4th quest
It says complete in third attemp
Ohh that was yāall pushing it into the little cave 
i was there too trying to get out
it just kept floating to the ceiling 
Oh no It didnt finish. Dang!
Sky is but a peaceful, wholesome game that makes me want to rage quit
going in once again 
jaws and I going back in to do it again 
ball was doing what he wanted XD
I finished it unlocking the mural
visceral hatred once again it hasnāt changed
I think imma do these two quests 2 months from now when there will not be a soul to lead the lights who knows where 
But its still buggyi managed to open the completed quest for quest 4 with others help. But its still buggy and laggy
gonna soccer ref the caves each time. no more trapped eggy things 
yup it's very buggy atm, sometimes it looks like the lights bounce off the masks lolol
Goalee at the cave entrance 
There are 3 of us in the same server and the masks were absorbed for me but not for them
Looks like all nodes must be completed to complete mission 5?
That was an interesting 4 quest
I know we're testing quest 4 and 5, but at this time we shouldn't be clicking it via the quest guide, right?
I don't think you can at all, we've been going to the masks directly
I clicked on quest 4 through the quest guide and completed it, now I'm trying to complete quest 5, have tried 2 times and failed
It is difficult to complete the last two nodes of task five when there are few people, the blue light will always return to the tree hole in the center of the map
The third time, it's finally done!
I have completed all the nodes, but there is no prompt "Completed"

Caused my blood pressure to spikešµ
I've completed 4t quest but 5th quest mask medi point I can't find at broken bridge?? Specific spot, anyone please
Thanks for that. I'm way up the map at the bridges š„“
4 normals and 4 sheep :/ why not just a full server? Ug
Well⦠zoomed zoomed thru all the way to the last and now itās stuck :(
Oop⦠there it went. Um I guess we finished?
Kinda wonky cutscene
Oof⦠didnāt register with the questgiver.. they sent the mask off again. Come on bro! I just did it!
When I finished task 4 and returned to the ancestor of the guide, the mask was not fixed on the rock wall, but disappeared directly
It's unfinished (seasonal content to the area,) which is why it disappeared
It should say āCOMPLETEā at the end
I meant that the asset for quest cutscenes at the seasonal area are still WIP, the mural for remaining 2 quests may be placeholders
Task 4 gives "COMPLETE", but task 5 doesn't
It's probably just not coded in yet
Hmmm. I thought I saw someone mention they completed the mask mountain so I assumed it was possible
Well completed quest 5 but doesn't accept that i finished for some reason
Same
Oh then, it's probably because it's unfinished, we're only testing the server aspect of the quest
Missed the test but not a big deal, so howās the test?
This round was the total opposite of the last time I tested the 5th quest. Who needs to ācreate a lineā ? I just ran like heck to the pots and boop. The light followed me. The last one was a lil buggy but eventually clicked
It seems that the physical rules in the sky are different from reality. These lights move irregularly like ghosts, and they complete the task by mistake......
Did you guys go to the questgiver after completing 4?
It wouldnātm make a difference would it? Whether we went to the questgiver first or not before attempting a quest.
After completing two rounds of TGC tests, I went to the quest provider to start quest 4, and returned to the Butterfly Plain to complete quest 4. It said "Complete", I went to the quest provider again to start quest 5, and returned Creek, tried quest 5 3 times and completed all nodes in the last time, but it didn't say "Complete"
Okay thanks
I wonder if you stand around until the timer runs out in quest 4 it still completes automatically cause that's the only way I'm doing it in live 
The first time I tried mission 4, I completed all the masks for mission 4, so I don't know if I can complete this mission without completing all masks
I never completed all the masks both times I tried the quest, the timer runs out and it auto finishes, I'm just hoping that registers as complete with the guide cause if so 
So after I headed to task 5, I tried three times, the first two times I didn't complete all the nodes (missing the last two), and the third time I did all the nodes, but didn't "Complete"
But you completed it according to questgiver tree?
Yes, I started task 4 at the questgiver tree first, then went to the Butterfly Plain, completed all the masks, and it showed "Complete", then went back to the questgiver tree and started task 5
After Quest 5, did you go back to the questgiver?
After Quest 5, i go back to the questgiver, but can't complete quest 5, it doesn't say "Complete"
Oh no. Maybe itās bugged. I hate quest 5 with a passion!
It doesnāt require any skill but patience.
I think so too, this should be a bug, I think it should show "Completed" after the countdown is over, no matter whether all the nodes of task five are completed or not. I have reported this bug #beta-bugs-android message
(Apparently my english is not that good, I used google to translate, don't know if the report is accurate
)
does anyone read the pins, or is it just me?
somehow got to the end of Quest 5! It didn't say Complete though, probably a bug!
No complete here either
I just did the fourth test completely alone and it was a lot easier to move the things the way I wanted. Unfortunately, I ran out of time to finish it. I think an actually coordinated group could do it. š¤
Yeah probably 2 groups of friends with chat open can work better
People keep pushing them in different directions, and they get confused
I was able to cover half, so with my theory, I'd just need one other person to get the other half. Maybe two.
The strangers I was with have been somewhat cooperative, but I believe server sync errors causes the light to fly in all directions, making it impossible to control
Yeah
Yeah that probably doesn't help, because everyone I've been with DID try.
Server merges stressing out both quests tbh
Yeahhh
Now is probably a good time to try it since no one is doing it. I only need one other person to help, lol.
Oh I can help! But if donāt wanna add you with a QR code since thereās a bug going around disabling beta accounts š
Yeah the QR bug is uh... problematic š
Maybe weāll merge there
Try wasteland social, that's good for merging
No time for that, I gtg sleep early after this next one
I'll try to meet you there! We have a bit of time to hopefully merge.
The mask for quest 4 reminds me of when Fox and his crew fought Andross in Star Fox 64.
gw social is great for merging I merged with bubba first try when we were hunting for her XD
It might have worked, but I wasn't able to join, RIP. I got more done myself, it's just too... spread out for me to cover the ground alone efficiently š¤
If you go to the quest giver for quest 5, the timer returns to the quest. It's also a lot easier to complete, because the blue light is a lot more receptive. It still goes all over the place, but I've tried it twice now and was able to complete it.
Beta chat 
I gave some very acrimonious feedback about Passage's Seasonal Masks. But this trend worries me a lot. We testers can weigh our choices by knowing what's in store before the show starts, but live players will know if this season will appeal to them after they buy their passes. I don't want a single mask from this season. It's the first time since the release of Sky that I don't like it so much. I'm worried about how many players will feel if they continue their quests and end up with a monkey-like Thanos-like maskš¢
Wes 
That's why they discontinued preorders 
the masks aren't even tied to the seasonal pass, except the ult, so there's no need and rush or anything to buy it.
Just wanted to let everyone know that, yes, the light orb things in the fourth quest are not behaving in Beta. I'm workin on hunting down the issues right now. I may summon some of you to help me do the quest in a few hours 
I should be around and could help if needed! I've been doing my own tests anyway. 
The Wes appears!
Thank you for the clarification. 
If anyone sees a skykid running around Isle of Dawn at like mach 6, don't report them, it's just me š„·
(Or do report them... and I'll read the report and laugh
)
LOCAL MOTH FOUND SPRINTING AT 600 MPH (NOT CLICKBAIT)
I just 




'd at someone near the bonfire in Isle of Dawn and they facepalmed and walked away
I see how it is
The desire to work hard and collect Seasonal Candles and play to the end is what makes you want to pay for a pass.
So which one are you? š
wasn't your point was about how ugly the masks are and how live players are might feel scammed because they paid for a seasonal pass but the cosmetics are "ugly"?
Wow, that's harsh 
The cosmetics being ugly (namely the ones tied to the quests) might make some live players feel scammed outta their $
but those aren't tied with the sp. why would they feel scammed?
Love spamming
hence my excitement for the leap spirit coming in music. So excited to get his lvl 4 leap emote!
People like to complain. I love my mask in live. The racoon tail and the ult cape are amazing.
During beta i rarely saw talk about quest masks, only the ultimate. Yeah there was maybe dozen of feedback to change texture and how these mask don't look like wood carving but it was shadow by everyone redesign the ultimate mask.
That's roughly what it means.
You mean the Ultimate mask? The rest are pay by candles though.
Yeah only the ultimate mask is money, lol.
Hi
Barely snuck in on time heeze
I didn't realize how hard this was without a lot of people 
Do you need more people to join in? I totally forgot to check the time and missed it 
It's all good, that wasn't the 'important' one haha. Let me figure out when the next Cooperation quest is... I'm probably gonna do it a few times
Yeah it definitely was a bit more difficult than I expected
but it was still funny to get launched every now and then
(also, I think I saw you in game? I had shaman mask and the new rainbow pants
)
It's still gonna be broken but I have data collection on 
Iāll help next time when Iām not totally just fishing on Minecraft itās up!
Next Passage of Coordination is in 4 minutes!

So how exactly do you move the orbs?
The skykid pushes and kicks it but it does not respond and then rushes off in a random direction.
If that hits a mask you're lucky?
oh snap I'm comin 
Quietly warps to you cuz I literally am pea brain rn 
So they're SUPPOSED to be easy to just push around, but there's some bugs right now that make them super rascally. I'm hoping to hunt those bugs down right now!
Thank you everyone who's around! 
which quest is it
I won't make it in time, I'm getting water screen of death š
Youāre friends w Wes?
I'll be doin it for the next couple runs! Thanks! 
monke is staring at me 
Ah yes. I see the Broken (TM)
I got there one second late (wheeze)
I was wondering why the quest hadn't started for me and then I realized I joined it a split second late 
Time to vibe while waiting 
Lol yeah this is awful! It's so much fun when it's working properly. 𤣠We'll get this fixed!
WE GOT ONE
oh dang the cutscene label activating the quest is extremely broken 
THANK YOU EVERYONE that was insanely helpful 
I'm gonna review the footage I took; I'll do the next one in 6 minutes too!
smol kid with goggles and birb is me, say hi if you find me!
Me omw to scavenge for Wes 
I'm getting the wifi signal of death
might be related to the networking issues
THE GOOBERS APPEARED
When your connection isn't dying I'm just spamming emotes until I can say hi (wheeze)
Oops wrong chat
Hmm, I'm not connected with anyone. The ritual works great alone though! 
The first thing we did was accidentally throw one of the light things into the wl cave XD
i wasn't responsible š
I was 
wow this ball REALLY wants to reset progress
idk what I'm doing š
Toe punted a ball and it nyoomed hEEZE
I got the data I needed for now; I'm just gonna hang out in the butterfly dome.
Come say hi if you want!
I'll stop by after this! 
Many players have the mentality of buying a pass to pay for the expected value of the entire season. At least that's how it is for me and my friends.
love when I kick the ball one way then it goes backwards
THE ORB ATE ME
Thanks again everyone! We're going to make some adjustments and then have some more impromptu tests tomorrow
Appreciate you all!
Noooo I missed it 
It was broken 
That test run was definitely an experience XD
this time actually felt better than the actual playtest time
least, I saw 10 masks instead of 6
It works better the fewer people there are. We think we found the issue. The tech is pretty crazy. We're gonna get it working though 
tbh the orbs are missing some lightning zaps and we can have bouncing plasma
Can't wait to see what it's like when it's.... Not broken

me too 
Maybe then we'll actually get to finish it and not get a light thingy stuck in a cave
(knowing me though, I'll probably find a way to get it stuck somehow
)
i got like all three stuck in there once š©“
how did you get the journey mask in beta?
I think being a dev has something to do with it
Wes is a dev, pretty sure they can just get whatever they want in beta 
Wes a hacker

i know he's a dev, its just that i didnt expect him to b able to get like.. sony ps pack in beta? when its not available to the rest of us
like im sure he could be a deer owl if he wanted to, just never expected journey lol... does this mean he could get the link hair too
I mean most likely
Well the files for the journey pack exist in beta, we were just never given access since we never tested playstation. Wes can obv add it to his inventory cuz dev powers
He can probably access literally anything he wants in beta XD
Well the switch pack was available for a limited time
If you ever come across anybody wearing any of those items and you're concerned they're sus just report them, I'm sure support will have a chuckle if Wes ever gets reported to them, and, well, if it's not him then they'll deal with that user accordingly 
it wouldn't be the first time 
but yeah, was testing some stuff with it and forgot to take it off
back to chibi for meeeee
i knew the journey pack files exicted in live, never knew it existed in beta too lol
Wes... How many times have you gotten yourself reported š
what's the fun in being a dev if you can't commit crimes 
officer, right there, the krill in the trenchcoat 
unrelated but I tried quest 5 again and it completed super fast but again I don't really have any idea how, even with a smaller group of sheep everyone still appeared to be everywhere 
(extends body to become the size of the Eden Diamond)
The improvements in quest5 are amazingļ¼
The light follows the player properly. Players, including myself, were running around competing to see who could lead the light to the relay point the fastest. I think it has changed a bit from the original way of leading the light in single file, but considering the stress before, I personally prefer it now.š
no itās still very much the same in a way, especially the last 2 parts
but itās way less finicky
It was zapping all over the place, and didnāt see people ahead to jump to š
I think sometimes you can just get super lucky that it bounces along so quick it doesn't have a chance to realise it is in fact still broken and needs to jump back to the previous lamp, that's kinda what happened for me earlier at least - but during the playtest there was like five minutes of standing watching the light bounce back and forth trying to figure out who the leader was 
Anyone know where the fifth mask quest is?
Scroll up #beta-announcements for a photo of the position
hey peeps. anyone knows where the new quest start point is located? Thanks in advance!
If you mean the 4th one, here in Butterfly Fields: #beta-announcements message
Anyone else having server error in Beta?
This one is very very glitchy
i actually finished it in the play test. this update is not making it more controllable
Yes

. Making games is hard!
Thank you SO MUCH to all of you for your help this season, really
. Every time we hit problems in beta, we get closer and closer to solutions in live. I am eternally grateful to you!
And we are grateful for you devs for making such an awesome game!!! 
literally every tgc dev šā¤ļøā¤ļøššā¤ļøā¤ļøššā¤ļøā¤ļø
^ hereās some appreciation in a jar for you
thank you so much devs
ā¤ļø youāre all super inspirational and cool!!!!
I was nervous thinking I wouldn't be able to complete all the seasonal spirit trees in time so I did the math and I only need 142 seasonal candles to finish, and I can get at least 319 seasonal candles before the season ends, so that was a huge relief š I have plenty of time to finish
the last two masks the design was too lazy, right.. one of them I don't know if it's a raccoon or a duck.
ah I don't know the geometric shape was strange, the first mascara was more defined.
I gather that we canāt complete the last quest yet, right?
I can't seem to complete the 5th quest either. despite reaching the end it shows as incomplete
it's trapped behind the schedule
yeah š„²
I'm guessing the masks in order on the tree are reversed?
Came to ask about completing 5th quest but seems everyone is
hey guys, I just saw some people with Days of Rainbow cosmetics in life version of the game, that shouldn't be available yet, right?
specifically the new cape and earrings
Which rainbow cape you saw specifically
the black one
That's strange, they shouldn't be available until 21.5, are you absolutely sure you were on the live version
or wait, let me take a pic, maybe I am imagining it
sorry, my bad, I just watched nastymold's video about the cosmetics, they aren't the same
sorry about the commotion, all is well
No worries, thanks for checking in
Error server for everyone?
Heya guys
Hey y'all! Are any of you experiencing server errors?
Did you open a memory candle?
Is it error for you in the beta, it keeps saying server error š
Just opened to test. I am getting them
Oh nevermind, yeah I'm experiencing server error Ren
WOOOO YEA BABEEEEY PURGATORY PARTY
The violin sounds heavenly
You're getting a lil' too excited š¤Ø
I had server errors without having opened a shared memory, and server error after having relogged
mb i dragged yall into server error purgatory with me me and bubba got lonely weāll put you back soon
Imma literally test the heck outta instrument, and plus it's free in beta :3
It's okay. We can have cookies while we swim in the ocean
Yep got a server error, but also I'm in a terrible reception area so I can't tell if it's actually the servers or if my wifi is just being eaten again XD
maybe if thereās enough of us we can drink the entire home ocean together so i have solid ground to walk back to the island on
Weāre all stuck in purgatory with Chook 
I thought I was the only one with the startup error
Purgatory became less purgatory when you have all your friends with you
(party in the USA plays but itās party in the purgatory)
So who broke the game this time? 
me (i'm glad im not the only one with server errors)
again it was me i stole you all bc purgatory was lonely š
so that wire was the server one... noted 
Me too 
STOP SNACKING ON THE WIRES š¹
They look so much like spaghetti though 
Passage Guide got so mad at us she became sentient š
and the red ones are like cherry licorice
𤤠wire
You're snacking on wires, I snack on the souls of the damned, we are not the same
Compromise and make a wire + soul meal like spaghetti and meatballs 
So an eldritch being???
spaghetti and meatballs, souls edition - isn't that just the pokƩmon tangela
Hey crew! We were able to get more data about the 4th mask ritual with internal QA testing, so I don't think I need volunteers for an organized playtest today. Thank you everyone who said they would be available! 
You should do a mini playtest anyways for the funny /hj
(but it's good that you got the data y'all needed!)
Oh yeah it's not a bug, it's a feature, it's just a new sport I invented: RANDOMBALL 
We love randomball catJAM 
it's like calvinball, but it's just frustrating 
calvinball you make up the rules as you go
randomball? the ball makes the rules, you get no say 
Am I stupid or wth am I supposed to do at the 4th quest?
Cry, because it's broken š
that's what you're supposed to do right now
Stick one of the light things in a cave that's totally what you're supposed to do for the quest 
Or better yet, stick all of them in a cave 
Turns out I could actually use a few volunteers at the Ritual of Coordination (Butterfly Fields)
Next one starts in 9 minutes. If anyone is available to jump in really quick it would be super helpful! 
You have never known pain until you try to get it back out that damn cave 
(explodes onto beta like a firework)
Nyooming over rn
(and I'm warping again because I'm very eepy
)
y'all the best 
again we haven't fixed anything, still just gathering data. This is the slipperiest bug I think I've ever encountered 
Yoo the SC are lit up 
It's an excuse to grab sc
joining!
hi bubba BAHHAA
I can't join tak 
Noooo 
We see you bubba š
me and my bestie goober fr fr
Whoever's spamming
next to me I appreciate you greatly
not the warp from home still sending me to y'all but not putting me in the waiting room
OREO HAS STAYED, I will be using him as my emotional support squeaker
Everyone who's merged with me just randomly disappeared 
i was two minutes late 
hey that one actually worked 
Why is it in the air pls
People keep standing under it
let it drop!
Are we all doing it together or are we on separate servers? 
aw I missed the spontaneous testing time
Ah, that was on my to do list for today anyway. š«¶
furiously squeezes Oreo
Okay, weird, that seemed to work a lot better than last time, but it was still not without its issues
Floating orbs are very no fun, pls tell them not to ascend 
I'm gonna do it again! 7 minute countdown
I was alone doing the quest and I actually got pretty far! I got 2/3rds of the way done.
oh snap I'm comin š
WHY WAS IT FLYINGG š
also I'm the one cosplaying as oddball outcast! 
They kept ascending

I can't reach them. I always get teleported back to the guide š
I spotted a Wes 
oh god the connection errors
I did not manage to bring Oreo this time sad noises
Is splitting a my issue or a y'all issue or a server issue?
I split from y'all 
I've split from everyone I join.
Hugging oreo is better than every therapy, it has been clinically tested and approved
I guess server issue then 
Oh I can try to help maybe if I run 
We might need to all go home and come back, getting weird network issues...
I see cy in my lobby but I can't see any of my other friends, not even as sheeps
We have 3.5 minutes go go!
SPEEDRUNS
shrining back puts me at the start of prairie 
WHAT DID YOU DO
HELPPPP
WES WHAT DID YOU DO
Real icarus hours. I flew too close to the debug tool sun
anyone from here who's wearing the witch hat and the harmony hall hat? 
Well that explains why thereās no one here with me I guess? 
aww that was the server i was just in
funny how my kid always headache emoting at the mask because me too
accidentally closed the app and when it reopened all the orbs and my friends went WEEEEEE
this one light really likes the clouds
I screamed at the one by the candle cave it didn't work š
I mean I just wellied it across the map so my kicks work
Okay that test was perfect, thanks all!
I'll take this data back to the engineers
got so mad at that one I switched servers unintentipmally
Well I didnāt catch āem all, but doing the quest by myself was a lot easier !
We broked it 
That's such a headache š
thank you wes š
presumably the data collection was perfect and not the actual quest cause that did not go so perfect 
Wes sent all of us into purgatory too hard and we exploded
š„š„
Oh yeah no it was a disaster--but I was hoping it would be a disaster, so I could get data about the disaster. The first run we did 30 minutes ago went almost perfectly, so it wasn't helpful š š
quest 4 is giving me skill issues it's so hard
reports you for sticking songs in my head 
I love how the chain of us just completely exploded when Wes tried to run us through the clouds 
i somehow did not notice that
I'm gonna do it again 
fenrir threw my son 
Wes sent us all to cloud purgatory and our kids got concussions š
thats why the quest broke
i cannot believe this/j
its been 5 seconds and the quest is already all over the place hEEZE
Oh no I lost everyone 
omg we were so OP we broke the game
Quest got so intimidated by that teamwork 
Very interesting... first run was great, second run was horrible, third run was great again
it seems that we always split after the quest completes
i wasnt with yall this time but the last few i kept splitting after it ended
we won so hard we got connection issues
was the second run going well until the dev tools attacked?

I'm sorry to say this with all due respect, but I feel even more sorry because I've been loving this season since it was released in beta.
To be honest, I think it was a mistake to have the furry balls swarming with the concert system this season. Personally, I don't think there is a need for so many people to flock to the rite of passage for teenagers, even if cooperation is the subject.
The quest map tries to create a dark and quiet atmosphere, but the furballs are too loud and it hinders immersion. It've come a live server.
But we've already come too far...
I have a lot of regrets this season. I thought it would be necessary to consider the immersion aspect of the game more seriously next time.
I couldn't participate in the recent playtest and did the 4,5th quest, so I can't tell how I felt about furball of 4,5th quest....
But I have lingering feelings about the season...so I wanted to tell this...
Does anyone happen to know what animal the second mask in the season is?
First is deer? Sheep?
Second I'd like to know
Third is a tanuki or fox?
And fourth is a monkey with the Grand mask being a bear.
So what's the 2nd?
boar cuz tusks
Bear, Serow, Boar, Monkey, Raccoon
I feel the same. The cosmetics and emotes of this season are top tier (though I still wish they'd change the ult mask back to how it was before
), but the quests are just... not it this season. It seemed okay in Beta like you said, but once it came to Live, all I can see of the quests now is just bad. It's too bad cuz they had so much potential

I enjoy them a lot but I do agree the fuzzies are adding to visual noise/disturbance
Serow?
The quests would've been better if either there were less people per group server, or the sounds of the fluffy creatures was toned way down.
sheepies in the wait rooms aren't too bad, especially for like quest 4 and 5 with larger areas that everyone spread out in (quest 2 and 3 felt a bit cramped in waiting rooms though) but when the quests start and there's sheep everywhere it can get a bit distracting especially for the line quest
a goat-type animal, they have big ears and small horns
Ye
honestly I think we could have managed these quests with regular 8 instances, cause even just the last run of that quest 4 went really well and I don't really think I saw any sheep with us
it's also a lot easier to coordinate 8 physical avatars than a bunch of floating sheep
This is based on the second season quest that just released in Live, but when it comes to the actual quest, the sheep dont even really do anything to help...
It only seems to be the people who are in the same server as you
i hope they also lessen the group instances cause 4000 seems too much, š
Yeah no that quest wasn't fun in beta with all the sheep we had, I can't even imagine what live is like for it - I'm actively avoiding it until it dies down because nope
I can confirm it's really bad in live. Most of the time I couldn't even see myself
It was already hard to see myself in beta, can't imagine live. Honestly I'm kinda dreading all the quests. Especially 3 in live 
I think 4 and 5 risk being troll fests, because we all know how well coordinated quests work in this game once they hit live. It's not really fair to use beta as a measure of success, because most of us here either know what to do or want to do it correctly for testing purposes
I might just summon all my beta friends to help me with quests after the seasons died down
The last quest also risks the same fate as Assembly quests: nobody around to complete them
it was okay in live but also I did that quest so many times in beta I was already mentally prepared for it
can't imagine how bad it is for the live players
all the quests are doable solo so that won't be an issue
Might wait till after the season to do them then. When I can solo them.
I didn't think the last one was doable solo? If it is, that is a relief
well it is also still wonky buggy with the last light line that needs to transfer so they need to fix that
it worked for me when everyone else left during the playtest and I was the only person left in the server LOL
Mostly I find all the quests too long and lacking in any purpose. I keep wondering why I'm doing this particular chore. What is the relationship to the season? What is this "rite of passage"'s meaning?
I would like to ask if the new currency will be cleared or just disappear after the event ends, and if it can still be used in the next event.
nope it doesnāt carry out to the next event
I too find it confusing due to the lack of story and context. even in live my friend asked me āwhy do we turn into sheeps and have to clean up the forestā hahaha š
So even if the same event comes again next year, will the event currency still be cleared?
yep, so thereās no use to hoard this particular currency because itād be a waste
well
unless you wanna buy a ton of the spells you can get for tickets
why not
I would love to turn into a sheep and clean up the forest irl, that sounds great
uh oh... I'm testing FQ4 again with debug tools, and my server # is 666
this can't be good
Wes did you summon another cloud purgatory again? 


I think we found the bug LETS GOOOOO 
I dunno when we'll have the fix rolled out but I'll come hound you all for another playtest when it's out!
LETS GOO
I don't wanna jinx it but, we wouldn't have found it without the help from y'all beautiful beta testers
Thank you again
Yoooo!!!!

I JUST... I just wanna... push the ball. And it goes in, y'know, the direction I push it š„ŗ is that so much to ask?
The server: "yes"
The orb getting stuck 80 times on the candle cave:
Well now with this bug getting squashed, you can give the servers a good pep talk on rolling balls correctly
We're punching the bug right in the face. We'll be ready for another playtest within an hour I think 
I kinda miss Randomball already. Maybe I'll put it back in as an easter egg š
Throw a hidden medi spot out of bounds for randomball quest maybe 
need an easter egg in quest 5 where the raccoon mask is watching us 
all right crew... I think the fix is in 
9 minutes to next event in Butterfly Fields, anyone who can jump in? 
me in game: "I hope it works lmao"
immediately gets yellow wifi symbol
That actually might be the server updating with the fix
let's see if it shakes loose
and now it says "the connection appears unstable. Your journey may be affected some."
I've never seen that before 
yse, same
aaaand we're back! Yeah I think it was a server update
WE DID IT
WOOOOOO WE 100% THE QUEST!!!!!!
The good news: It works flawlessly.
And there is no bad news.
š
it's almost too easy now... LOL
WE EXTRA 1000000% THE QUEST
I'll hand this back to design team
Thanks so much everyone. I'm gonna play it another round or two just to be sure.
Really happy that the quest works now!!!! Imma go sneep since it's very late for me 
Yep I'm happy to report the quest is 100%-able now! Still needs some polish, and there's a little bit of a logic issue with the 'win condition' but those will be very easy fixes
Man I'm so glad when I kick the ball it actually does something 
What a concept right? š
@gilded jasper I had gotten the [complete] banner across my screen during a previous test, so I can't confirm if this one also gave me the [complete] banner or not. I assume it would though, since we did complete it 100%
3 minutes to next round if anyone else would like to join!
Btw is it faster if more people roll the same ball I couldn't tell
I don't think that's implemented yet but I think it's on the to do list
Hi! I'm not a bet tester, but I've seen some of the upcoming events, and I have a question: is the upcoming music event a new thing? Like, I understand that Nature is a returning one, but has there been a music event before?
Secondly, do we have a rough estimate of when it will be live?
Now that it Actually Works (TM) we can cram all the polish we've been wanting to do haha
Yes, days of music is a new event, no we don't have an estimate of when it will be in live
Next time ask in #beta-discussion, this channel is for the seasonal quests and related stuff
Wait, did I just miss a spontaneous playtest?
Ngl completing quest 4 is way easier than quest 3 LOL
better sense of accomplishment
š
It's not perfect, but it's definitely five hundred million times better than it was before!
Gonna do one more run, starts in 7 minutes.
WOOO THE BUGS GOT EATEN
<- is currently half asleep
thanks for working late, have a good night's sleep. 
Ty Wes !!!
If itās as late for you as itās getting for me, have a good rest !
I think I might have gotten in that last run unintentionally... Apologies for prolly proving an obstacle (I don't know what I'm doing ^^; )
Not knowing what you're doing is also valuable feedback for them!
Now if only my recording didn't fail ^^;
Though pushing those light orbs straight up in the air somehow was kinda fun
(Yes, I should be asleep, but it's my Friday so sleep schedule doesn't exist currently)
It is fun till someone did purposely navigate the light orbs somewhere other than the direction of the dormant mask š„“
In a same note, yes, I stumbled into this shenanigans
Just did the fourth quest again but didnāt finish because someone was just pushing the balls around for fun, and others specifically rolled one into the candle cave, for fun. Sorry for being killjoy and just wanting to finish the quest š
Haha š it is just me or did all this season's quest could be completed without even finishing it? Didn't even finished 3rd and 4th quest but did received the "Complete" notification
We desperately need a huge playground in the game
I thought GW lobby is our huge playground 
It appears that some people have never kicked a soccer ball in their entire life
They steal the sphere away from me, who was leading it right towards a mask, and lead it away from the mask, and not towards another mask but the edge of the map/clouds
We ended up losing 2 spheres to the clouds and I just ragequit the quest š
I noticed that mask progress is different between servers, so it might be that they already saved that mask
Hmm that might be the problem. I also realized I never picked up the quest from the qg in Isle so that's maybe why my quest didn't finish
Nah, I had the quest picked up, it just doesn't complete because it might be unfinished/WIP
