Question: what does it mean if it takes a long time to load into a lobby?

Slow connection to host

Is there a way to make that force-quit, maybe? I was stuck in that mode for at least a minute. Don't think that was fun for either side.

oh weird

#

unfortunately it should time out

unless something really weird happened

I'll keep an eye out for if it happens again, and get a rough idea of how long it lasts. I know it's usually only about 3 seconds or so to properly connect.

Question: Are there any consideration about the auto-open jail? Cause since it can auto-open, the Locksmith seems a little useless. I'd notice that the open's cool down is base on killer's cool down, but is it considerable to lock it until the next meeting or so. My thought is this might extend lots of different ways for Duck and Goose to play like torture or something else like that. thank you!

locksmith can open it from inside

yeah it is easy to get there before it auto-unlock but doesn't the player get into prison since they are being suspect, so if other player wants to ask more about the prisoner, it is a good way to lock them inside and ask

Make an option in settings for how long jail will close:
Choice:10-230 seconds
Locksmith take 3 seconds to open:on/off

If you want the jail to stay closed longer, you have the option to increase the kill cooldown happy

If the politician wins in a voting tie, does that mean that the other player is voted out or sent to jail?

Voted out is right.

#

So if someone dies when they tied, the other player is comfirmed politician.

They'd only be sent to jail if there were a three-way tie. If there's a two-way tie, the non-politician target is outright killed.

# trim kite I hated birdwatcher before, still hate it but a little less

It was just bad timing with the release. It was released with Nexus Colony, which all had super thick walls, so everyone got aggravated that they were stuck in flashlight mode with no real benefit. In the early beta testing on Mallard Manor for birdwatcher, we realized just how insanely powerful this bird was. I'm sad we never got to see it in action, to let people experience it's full potential.

To the people that designed Ye Olde Tavern and the music that plays in it, I love you. Best room on the map. I enjoy being able to go behind the bar and have a bit of role play fun serving drinks to people that come in to do their tasks. And if they try to come around behind the bar with me then I shoot 'em. Sheriff

#

I've been late to the party, but I am slowly learning the perks of birdwatcher. However, I can definitely see the pain of being stuck in flashlight mode, even with the tradeoff of X-ray vision. Even Mother Goose and Blackswan have a couple parts where seeing through walls can pay off. If I were to make a change, I'd maybe change the cooldown timers (10 up, 15 down say?), but I have no idea the consequences of such a change, or if they're tied to other timers like the kill cooldowns.

Everyone wants to play the way they want to play, some people like playing vanilla. Why would we remove something when we can keep adding?

Regular goose has to stay as a catchall just in case other goose roles aren't chosen. Just like regular duck needs to stay on the off-chance not enough duck roles are chosen.

The materials that I am earning are not being added to me. Specifically, it happens to me with "blue silk". What can I do to recover those that have not been delivered to me? (edited on monday 8 nov 21) Well, after spending the whole weekend checking that the won materials were added to the list (and they have been added), right now I have won 1 crystal (fishing) and 3 tea leaves (distributing food), all this on the goose chapel map; and, when reviewing the list of materials, I verify that they have not been added to me. Specifically, I had: 4 crystals and 70 tea leaves, before playing; and after playing I still have 4 and 70 units respectively.

I think game should have more kill animation.Each role could have their kill animation

latent arrow
#

There are already 16...

#

Animations take up a ton of texture memory, need to be careful on how many put in otherwise mobile players will not be able to play.

next magnet
pallid spoke
#

Speaking of kill animations, any chance the kill screen with the animation might get an update? They feel very slow and drawn out at times. Among us kill screens only take about a second and a half, while ggd spends what feels like 4 or 5 seconds until all animations are done. Preferrably i would have liked it if it was sped up to take max 2 or 2.5 seconds

latent arrow
#

It's easy to do 1.5s animations when you only have 5-7 frames in your animations. We run 20frames/s. It was important for us to make the animations smooth and feel better to watch. Not everyone will appreciate the time we take to put in our story cinematic and death stingers. If you're a fan of quick, low frame, image splashes then I am sorry, we won't do that injustice to our art team or the players. The death stingers have more purpose than just showing you died. The animation itself is usually 3-4s but the lead in and out are meant to create a stoppage in gameplay.

#

You died.. it should feel like there was a pause. There's a psychological phenomenon that let's your anxiety of death/dying turn into a dopamine release but it takes a few seconds for that chemical release. If the transition between playing, killed, dead is too quick you'll see more people raging rather than laughing.

near mica
#

I feel like most of the death animations are fine, but the one for alchemy I feel stretches on longer than the others. Is there a way to maybe speed just that one up? Or at least make the length of all the kill animations somewhat consistent?

latent arrow
pallid spoke
# latent arrow It's easy to do 1.5s animations when you only have 5-7 frames in your animations...

I’m not saying that the animations should be sped up. When you get killed it takes a while before the animation even starts (when the red blood splatter slowly fades in) and when the animation ends, it slowly fades out too. I just find these fade effects drag on for so long that by the point where you can control your ghost, you dont even know where your killer is any longer.

I know you’re probably tired of hearing the among us comparsons, but in my opinion, it just does kill screens more seamlessly than ggd currently does. It’s just the way the animation is presented that is slow, not the animation itself.

latent arrow
#

We specifically enabled moving during the kill screen to allow a bit of a more dynamic feel when you're killed on the run. This is intentional

#

The blood splatter is 8 frames in .5s

#

fade in is <1s

#

Any faster and the fidelity of the animations will suffer to the point where we might as well drop resolution and frame rate. Then we're just at Among Us level of art. This is not where we want the game, I agree we can tweak the timing here and there but we're talking <1s shifts it really doesn't make sense to conform this.

pallid spoke
#

Well, just my take on it. Personally I find the long kill screens to be what makes people more agitated than the short ones

latent arrow
#

We could put an option to speed it up

#

So you can have death stingers playback at .3s

or 5s

It's not really a secret. You can get run over by the shuttle and if you're in the shuttle during the shuttle sabotage, you will die if others don't fix it in the time limit.

%feedback Make Snitch Duck send a person to jail even if they have more people voting for that person. Snitch is just useless currently since jail does pretty much nothing in Goose Chapel, so having the restriction of not freely being able to choose who to send to jail is a massive drawback to an already underwhelming ability. At least Spy Duck can gain vital information from correctly voting, Snitch Duck just causes everyone to group and makes it easier for a pigeon to win at best. If you're in a serious and highly competent lobby, sending people to jail is actually even bad for the ducks since people will note that the likelihood of Morphling / Professional / Assassin has gone down due to the proven existence of a Snitch. Not to mention the fact that the ability doesn't even work if a bird is voted out in the same meeting.

that is useless

I think you've misunderstood the role.

pallid spoke
#

i really dont know what you can even do with snitch, ive seen it used cleverly once when on 6 birds remaining, the snitch sent their partner to jail so they could meet up and double kill, thats about it

#

kill cooldown is too high to kill the person currently in jail

#

im not saying to remove the role, but giving you the ability to choose who goes to jail regardless of whether someone else voted for them would make it less gimmicky IMO

latent arrow
#

I think you're misunderstanding the role here.

pallid spoke
#

skipping does not send anyone to jail, and if you really want someone out of the picture you can keep them out for the start of each round, it doesnt actually change the information given, but instead allows you to make use of the role more

timber obsidian

i think we can agree that you think its useless

#

but we disagree

#

Not all players will understand the utility of every role in a social deception game. It's challenging. That's ok.

#

We want understanding the intricate mechanics and utility of a role, in combination with one's ability to craft stories and deceive players, to be at the core of the game.

#

Let's cut it here

pallid spoke
#

tbh it kind of sounds like youre taking this personally to me for some reason, im just saying that a role seems extremely underwhelming to me, the concept of a duck sending geese to jail isnt bad, its just that its incredibly restrictive currently

So. Do you folks have any plans to add any 'Guarding Angel' type role? Not sure if you saw the AU video, but it basically means that a ghost that gets this role when they are dead gets to protect certain players. I can imagine if you folks were to do this, you would have this ghost only be able to do this just once to avoid easy abuse.

timber obsidian
#

we've always had the ability to add shields and that sort of thing like medic roles in certain mods

#

the problem with that is that dead players have a very good chance of knowing who the ducks are

#

(even with role reveal on)

#

and if they know who the ducks are.. a lot of the time what you're going to end up doing is just giving the geese an additional life, or effectively doubling one duck's kill cooldown

buoyant skiff
# pallid spoke %feedback Make Snitch Duck send a person to jail even if they have more people v...

Ok I want to clarify something….Snitch duck is useful because the people that go to jail can be “checked” to see if their good or bad. It due to 1. Locksmith, mechanic, ducks and pigeon having a easy way to leave the jail due to the vent and locksmiths powers. 2. It can keep people contained, clearing them of murders and such. 3. Going to jail can acually clear you since the ducks want to send goose to jail, so a good stair is to send yourself to jail, and stay there so you can be cleared since you were in jail. All in all, snitch is a good role as is and I have talked about this too long.

#

Also if you don’t like snitch, just turn it off

There needs to be a game mechanic added or some type of progression that will incentivize the geese to do their task. Im not sure what this change needs to be, but the kick idle geese setting seems to be a turn off for most players as it is very rarely used in lobbies and when it is used there are a lot of objections to the setting. The timing of the game seems to be off because the ducks almost never feel the pressure of task bar completion to make them kill. I dont have the data but looking at the average time it takes to do a task and the number of task selected for a game, there should be an "optimal time" for the game to complete when also accounting for meetings. I suspect most games are 2x or 3x this optimal time because geese arent doing their task.

hybrid ridge

#

the only way i can see around it is if they increase the amount of tasks but make it to where tasks are infinite, but it would probably be way imbalanced and prob require only living geese, most of the time the living are the ones holding on to tasks cause they are busy running or hiding

If people aren’t using the ‘kick idle geese’ in lobbies that it may need to be selected on its not the games fault

tried to do mice task 4 meetings in a row and get the "if you don't do tasks you'll get kicked" -- its my real only objection cause I've also had it pop up when failing to do the recorder -- those 2 can be rng unlucky

every other time has been legitimate - oh yeah my tasks! gotta do them feels

Sadly, there's no shortcut for whack-a-mouse. Either you hit it or you don't, and it likes to fake you out a bit.

#

Recorder task is not RNG - change note, wait 1 second, see if notes are clearer, change not again. repeat

#

takes 4 - 5 seconds max, also the sound is always the same, so if you clue into the pitch over time (as you do it) there is no luck

Mouse task skillless method = click up and down on one diagonal row, rapidly and fast. GG

it feels random to me because i don't find the recorder to be intuitive -- i'd need the basic song to know what I'm listening to -- plus gramophones are also called recorders don't get why you had to correct me there, its like saying album instead of record, same crap

perspective and experience create variances on tool usage, so just to say something isn't RNG doesn't negate how it comes across to others... Is the universe Chaotic or is it Organized in a way you can't connect?

near mica
obtuse meteor
#

i understood that, wasn't the issue -- I've felt like I had it in the perfect spot before and it never finished out, not arguing about it only stated my opinion - i know how it operates, its just my perspective that I don't find it intuitive.. I listen to all sorts of varied music and in my music experience tempos change, songs can be played fast and slow -- Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 aka Ode to Joy has the same set notes where tempos change, keys change, but the main melody stays the same. I only stated that because of this with me I get the warning about tasks not being done while trying to do these 2 tasks in specific when kick idle geese is on. I've actually been removed from an active game cause I couldn't hit the notes in time before.. Second meeting closes I get the notification. Also semantics...

Probably not much need for it, but will there be a Dutch translate some day in the future?

So I think they do translations for places where they have a large player base, so if it turns out that a lot of Dutch people play the game, I think they would include a Dutch translation

Ah yes

If we see a want/need for a certain language we may reach out to the community and see if anyone is willing to do translations. All of the translations we have so far are community driven.

Just an idea but to avoid "falcon checks" and ability to possibly claim being another role when you are the falcon... could falcon have an additional option to only vote either skip or themselves?

ivory herald

I literally stopped claiming "I skipped" when I'm falcon, because more times than not, I was the only skip and people worked out I was falcon from that.
On the other hand, I've done the exact opposite and won games because of it.

mental nest
#

like make it so the duck appear after a little bit of time

#

or something

#

or have it spawn at a specific location on the map and geese spawn somewhere else

near mica
#

That might be a little too obvious if everyone but the ducks and neutrals spawned in a specific area. Best suggestion I can make is run away quick or find a third bird quickly.

#

There is also an option that everyone spawns in the "meeting place" (usually around the button, but not always). Then everyone spawns in the same place, giving everyone equal chance to be picked on.

hollow nebula
near mica
#

Well, there still ought to be an element of randomness. Sometime, you just get stuck with the duck. At least you can still help remaining live geese.

ivory herald
#

My personal take on this is the person I spawn with (If I'm duck) gets to be the messenger. I claim I'm the duck and tell them to run, they let everyone else know (hopefully) and make the chase more fun, in exchange for staying alive. If you don't run, then you're killed, and your death tribute tells the other players

To give you an idea why, when we put in options people sometimes click them and then never turn them back on. We get bug reports saying they are broken only to find out they turned them off/on

#

We are trying to minimize the number of junk bug reports

#

it slows us down

#

just being transparent.

#

The amount of work implementing it is not the concern, it's the resultant of doing so.

junior copper
#

And I think voting time was better in seconds

latent arrow
#

We wanted to keep the voting screen less cluttered with moving/text and numbers.

#

The number of complaints and bug reports we had because people's timers would shut off or phases would switch with a +1/-1 second visible variance were staggering

#

again, those numbers although are great, most people don't understand latency or frame dropping

#

explaining that was taking up too much time

#

so we went with this solution which gives a smoother transition and only counts the last remaining seconds after a sync).

#

We're aiming to minimize data transmission because we're noticing a lot of players not meeting minimum bandwidth requirements.

#

Syncing time costs network data (not much) but every bit helps

#

When we enable overwolf I'm sure someone will make a meeting timer overlay.

#

We're ok with this.

I'm not sure if this is fixable, it might be an Android thing, but the mobile app has an incredibly bad experience with losing audio and/or mic inputs on notifications coming in, screenshots being taken, basically anything that comes away from full app focus, the game just loses its mind and all audio drops, essentially making the game unplayable. Happy to DM someone any local logs I can get off of the phone if needed.

#

Same thing happens with changing audio device between speakers and headphones on the menu between starting the app, and joining a game. All audio drops out with just static in the background. The only way I found of getting audio in/out to remain was to get the whole thing set up, turn on DND mode, and then launch the game, which is a user-hostile experience, imo

Can I ask why so often you get booted from a game lobby?
It really is disappointing after finding a good lobby because you almost can never find them again. However I do LOVE that is you are on a voice lobby, you can still communicate when this happens

ivory herald
#

If you're getting kicked from a lobby there are a number of reasons. One might be that kick idle geese is turned on, which removes players who don't do their tasks for a few minutes so as not to take the game hostage. This is always on in public lobbies. If you are being kicked by the host, that is probably because those players don't want you in their lobby for some reason, sometimes people are just plain mean. If you're losing client connection, its because this game has a fairly high minimum bandwidth requirement. This is also the cause of a lot of other mic issues some players have

#

If you continue to experience issues, submit a troubleshooting ticket and mention the issue. It probably wouldn't hurt to include a speedtest result and a ping test

I played a game today that got dwindled down to 4 geese(with myself), and 3 ducks. I knew who the ducks were, and (correctly) called them out in the last meeting.

I attempted to direct the geese to vote for one specific duck, and voted as soon as I possibly could have, locking in my vote.

Then, a spy-assassin combo got me shot, and the ducks instantly won.

I know this is very much an edge case and doing anything about it would likely not be easy to implement; but if the ducks hadn't instantly won (and the living geese had followed my lead), a duck would've been executed, 3 geese and 2 ducks would've remained, and the game wouldn't have ended.

I guess my feedback is: can assassin shots be changed to not end the game? Or, probably more accurately to the code, can the win check be disabled during meeting?

Even if the win check didn't happen during the meeting, as soon as players spawned back on the map the game would check for win conditions and the Ducks would win.

Please stop kicking people for not doing tasks I promise you no one wants anyone to be temp banned over tasks

Also why are so many features restricted to private games

crimson needleBOT
#
Please add proximity chat to public games.

This is something we have considered, but have ultimately decided against. We have taken the stance that if you make a private game, you are responsible for moderating it. The host will have their own rules, and have the responsibility of kicking people who they feel are breaking the rules.
Public lobbies are different in that players don't necessarily know the people in the game they are joining into. Kids might enter a game and can be harassed by others in some corner of the map if proximity chat is on. If someone is being rude or toxic in a meeting, everyone can hear it and can block their mics and block them.

So why don't we just separate servers into kids and 18+? Because a 12 year old can check off a box that says they are 18, and we'd rather prevent the potential abuse and toxicity.

If you want proximity chat, make a private game. If you need players, find a private game in the #lfg channels or make your own.

%feedback having advanced tutorials might help players with low play hours get good at the game faster, some things take quite some time to discover on their own, example: duck ghosts can trick technicians with sabotages.

IMO it’s better to have it on than not to. Ghosts tend to forget about tasks and I suspect the main reason task wins aren’t as prevalent is because people don’t feel they need to do them.

Then again, there are some strategies that don’t leave much in the way for tasks, but even then that should be taken into consideration while planning the strategy.

(Also you can just turn it off if your the host so it’s not required angel)

Final thing to say on the task debate: geese won’t usually win by tasks, just like how duck only rarely win by sabotages. However they can both be powerful by effecting how the opposing team plays the game.
Death sabotages make almost every goose go to the sabotages area, both a good distraction and an easy way to deflect suspicion.
Tasks, however, have a different effect. They’re constant pressure put onto the ducks. As the bar fills the pressure increases.
While geese almost never win via tasks, the farther the bar goes, the more likely ducks are to make risky maneuvers…

While this is definitely a problem with how ppl are playing rather than the role itself, I have an idea for a buff:
What if you learn both the corpses role, and the role of who killed them?
That could add some strategy for how the ducks kill, and give some power to normal ducks (they could act as the main killers to obscure the others roles)
It could also add a better reason to leave a body for mortician to find, now you could tell what kind of killers are in play.

why we cant use proximity chat in public server?

crimson needleBOT
#
Please add proximity chat to public games.

This is something we have considered, but have ultimately decided against. We have taken the stance that if you make a private game, you are responsible for moderating it. The host will have their own rules, and have the responsibility of kicking people who they feel are breaking the rules.
Public lobbies are different in that players don't necessarily know the people in the game they are joining into. Kids might enter a game and can be harassed by others in some corner of the map if proximity chat is on. If someone is being rude or toxic in a meeting, everyone can hear it and can block their mics and block them.

So why don't we just separate servers into kids and 18+? Because a 12 year old can check off a box that says they are 18, and we'd rather prevent the potential abuse and toxicity.

If you want proximity chat, make a private game. If you need players, find a private game in the #lfg channels or make your own.

crimson needleBOT
#
It feels like the same people have been getting the same roles over and over, how come it isn't random?

The entire process is random, but it's very human to interpret patterns where there are none. If you had encountered a bug about the role assignment, it would be more likely to be an issue if it the results were absolute - For example, no player ever getting the Assassin in any of their games, or someone 100% of the time getting the Birdwatcher.
Players are also notoriously prone to exaggerate, and might interpret someone getting vampire three games in a row to being ten times in a row.
In short, the role randomization isn't bugged, your brain is bugged.

I sometimes feel frustrated as mortician because first I have to find the bodies before I can use my role, and then I have to stand over them for 3 seconds. The latter isn't so bad if I shout to everyone what my role is when they walk up and find me standing over a body, but then I'm a prime target for the assassin. I sometimes wonder if the mortician might be more fun if it, like the assassain, has a twice per game ability they could trigger in meetings to learn the role of a dead bird.

that would certainly make it easier but it's probably not something we'd do

#

i mean what agency do you have at that point over your destiny

#

you would just play the game as a normal goose, and the hit space bar at two bodies

#

in fact, you should just check the first people that die really

#

because you'd just be a vanilla goose without any gameplay changed

#

you'd effectively just be a vanilla goose, except you learn the role of the first two people that died

I like mortician but when I first used it I was confused, i used the ability and nothing showed up, I heard the ding sound but I thought there might be a need for a visual clue.

#

This might've been decided against and that's fine

#

I dont mean a visual clue that tells the player the role, simply just a glowing effect or the inability to scan again would do

the confirmation is the sound

#

if you want your body to be investigated properly, die isolated

Dead birds who lost also appear as ghosts, without their cosmetics. It is harder to tell if they weren't wearing any cosmetics but they do appear as ghosts

Hi

i really think you should add Dutch (Nederlands) for an in-game language option

Most of our Dutch players are fluent in English. We don't have enough only Dutch speakers to justify it.
