un momento por favor

[timber obsidian]

probably be better if you did this in a ticket

[potent zinc]

Player.log ?

[timber obsidian]

yes

and

the other one, playerprev

[potent zinc]

OK

and done

[latent arrow]

Think I have a possible solution

Open a ticket

The solution may be individual and don't want to discuss it out here in the open

related to hardware

have a good one

No for privacy we don't let people post logs or want them to in the open

EVERYTIME THIS ERROR COULD YOU HELP?
Join room failed, please try again.

[viral coyote]

@minor elbow If this is still an issue can you create a ticket #troubleshooting-and-bug-reports @neon depot FYI

[atomic crater]

I want to send a message to my friend. Will it be possible?

[crimson notch]

Possibly in the future.

[neon depot]

Hi, have not heard any other reports of this happening recently
If this continues to happen please make a ticket 🙏🏻

[tame edge]

I got 2 feedbacks atm

1. make buttons at right side of the screen smaller (in lobby)

2. make it so players can still be reported/blocked even if they left the lobby, otherwise they can just run away after doing some scummy actions (example: duck killing another duck intentionally. Or harassing in chat)

[obtuse meteor]

ducks can't kill other ducks unless blind ducks or mimic are on, with a few sabotage exceptions... turn those off or learn to dodge

and that bomb... just pass it

[tame edge]

I know, I'm talking about literal griefing

(if I go into details I'll be told what happens in the game stays in the game so not going that way)

[hybrid ridge]

A feature to toggle on/off ‘accepting friend requests’ would be nice 👀

[minor elbow]

thx

[timber obsidian]

thats planned for the future

we have plans to have messaging as well

[atomic crater]

How can I report an impolite user? Is there any way to block impolite users?

[green spruce]

I think u can mute them, maybe Friend System now also offers new functions

Wait for?

[obtuse meteor]

Tuesday for some Tacos

[green spruce]

yummy

[potent zinc]

So here is an interesting one, not sure if its a bug or not, BUT if you are in the store and buy a piece of clothing, and then w/o closing the store, the game starts, you don't see the new clothing, you see it when you exit the game and go back to the lobby

[latent arrow]

It equips when the store closes

its intended otherwise there is a pattern in which you can do similar things to "steal" cosmetics

[potent zinc]

just wanted to say "just in case" 🙂

[wide vector]

i got a feedback: make the lovers not die together (there was this guy who just suicided bc i could have been duck and it sucks that you die for no reason) and if the lovers make to final 3 no matter what they win (even if its only geese)

[hybrid ridge]

So classic geese that are just best friends? Roles need some sort of downside

[uneven bone]

This is the silliest suggestion I've ever seen, it's just a way to clear 2 people of suspicious intent but now anyone could lie about being lovers. You silly goose

[tame edge]

being immune to partner suicide would be cool tho, if you want to get murdered you could just permanently chase other players until you get killed or something, but using something like the shuttle isn't cool

[scarlet ledge]

I mean it is very easy to get killed by the shuttle on accident as well. I prefer the method of running around the map yelling "2 for 1 special"

[uneven bone]

"buy one get one free"

[scarlet ledge]

but i never take the game seriously anyways. The whole point of the lovers is the til death do us part mechanic. If you don't want to play with that in, then just disable lovers

It's impossible to make a ruleset for any role that is going to cover how player X is going to use that role over player Y and predict all the possible outcomes

[polar mural]

I've done this as Canadian before.

[rancid owl]

Not sure if this has been suggested before, but an optional colourblind mode for meetings would be great. Sometimes we get players with almost unpronounceable names, and having the option for players to enable a text label with that player's colour on would solve the issue with colourblind players and saying "Oh, it was red that did it", and players not being able to see that. Currently we just have to remind players to be mindful of those who might be colourblind, and try to say player names, but obviously that might not always be possible in proxy

[gilded ginkgo]

can we hide our 'friend name'?

[latent arrow]

The number is obfuscated unless you share it

[uneven bone]

May I have access to the Fan Art channel? I'm not sure what missdeeds I've done in the past but it seems great and I will behave

[green spruce]

Didn't you just accidently miss click and roll the channel?

[uneven bone]

What do you mean roll the channel? It's been absent for months on my end

[green spruce]

I'll DM you

[uneven bone]

No it's really just not there

[lavish dagger]

[potent zinc]

If you sit in the main screen for 30mins or so, and then try to join a room, it errors and then logs you completely out of the game, have to sign in again with email

[polar mural]

I think perhaps you intended to open a ticket in #troubleshooting-and-bug-reports

[latent arrow]

This may actually be intended, to prevent ghosting/hacking your authentication token may expire

logging you out.

I have to check our code but it sounds like its working properly.

[potent zinc]

So this only happens if you are in-active then? Because it most assuredly does not happen when you are active. Not sure what difference that makes though

[obtuse meteor]

I usually just close and reopen the game, steam auto-signs in for me. Most, if not all, online games have authentication upon log in and disconnect you if you idle long enough requiring a relog.. This is a non-issue imo.

[latent arrow]

I do believe it checks for mouse inputs

[jagged talon]

Hii

[potent zinc]

I am stuck in the store, I can not leave even after a game starts. Clicking the back arrow does nothing. Only does it when I buy something, it has done it twice

Can only leave by going to main menu

[crimson notch]

#troubleshooting-and-bug-reports drop those sweet player logs

Nevermind, I see you did. Carry on!

[potent zinc]

🙂

this is becoming a routine for me now

[restive flume]

Feedback for Dueling Dodos: It's a good addition and makes the ducks/geese be very cautious on who they are going to vote.

[vernal kindle]

Can we get an upstairs and basement for Mallard Manor?

[timber obsidian]

done

check the stairs as soon as you can fuzzy

[tall shuttle]

[elder sail]

How do the servers work? Is it just a p2p connection to the host? Or is there is some special stuff that happens when playing internationally

[viral coyote]

Hopes, Prayers and string, lots and lots of string!

[latent arrow]

Its hosted on a server, players relay information through the servers.

[elder sail]

Are we allowed to know where the server's are located?

[latent arrow]

Sure!

Where are you located? Which country? I can tell you where our nearest server is to you

[elder sail]

NY

but if i play with people in germany, where will it put the server

[latent arrow]

If the person who created the game is in Germany it will be in Frankfurt

If you create it, it will be in Ohio

[elder sail]

ahh ok, so based on who created it, got it

[raw pelican]

Nexus is really bad on mobile. Really Really bad.

[sick verge]

deletes Nexus Colony
Care to elaborate?

[timber obsidian]

what phone do you have?

[raw pelican]

An lg style 6. All other maps work great. But nexus moves slow. Other friends can attest to it on my behalf. And I like the map

[timber obsidian]

Stylo?

[timber obsidian]

this is a memory issue

you have 3 gigs of memory.. it's close to the minimum requirement. please close everything else on the phone before running ggd

[tame edge]

would be nice if role screen at the end of the game made a more noticeable sound, or make it "click to return to the match lobby". Often as a ghost I finish my tasks and stop paying attention to the game, and end up missing the role screen

[pine yew]

i'd like you to add a function to try on clothes in advance at the stored

i often thought i was buying clothes in the same set, but when i tried it on, i felt disappointed because it was completely different

[latent arrow]

I will work on some optimizations, Herbert is right. It is a memory speed issue.

@raw pelican

[tame edge]

this probably was suggested already but, we should be able to know the role of players who left the match halfway

[raw pelican]

Ok. Just wanted to mention it since i play with a lot of ppl. And it is the only map that I have a slow moving issue on. Especially the transit. But i understand if it is my phone.

[latent arrow]

The phone definitely does not have fast memory but I will see if I can make it better :)

[green spruce]

is there a bug report channel?

[scarlet ledge]

#troubleshooting-and-bug-reports

[static plume]

I really wish I could send a message to my friend through the friend function If it's impossible, please add a friend memo function

[timber obsidian]

Planned for later

[green spruce]

Please, increase friends cap more than 100 users

[little crest]

Like I'll ever have 100 friends, even fake online ones

[hybrid ridge]

They’re testing things out right now, please be patient

[green spruce]

How about adding a function to check in advance whether the microphone in the game is working properly or not?
Add mic test to options for example

[green spruce]

I can't access the shop and I'm not sure why?

[crimson notch]

Are you on Steam? If so, you likely have the Steam Overlay disabled

You can also make purchases on the gaggle.fun website if Steam gives you issues

[green spruce]

Thanks!

I just used the site 🙂

[misty mural]

%feedback I feel like it would be appropriate to make the gramophone task accessible to people who are deaf, and it could be done very easily by making the notes move faster or slower depending on their pitch.

[finite violet]

Thanks @misty mural for your feedback, we'll be sure to look at it

[crimson notch]

There are visible cues as the notes start out with bent tails that get straight as you get closer to the right pitch

[echo canopy]

Bomber is so OP 💀

need to nerf

[polar mural]

I've almost never done it by listening. My brain doesn't really pay attention to the speed of the music. Honestly, I never even knew the music changed speed until someone said it on Discord a while ago. I just looked at the notes and how messed up they were.

[silent hedge]

I think It seems like good to add job that have a skills to kill nominated one person when died by voting. There are so many unfortunate death. It can be reduce the victim who die innocent.

[proud fog]

The party goose is awesome... But you gotta make a goose that makes someone's voice deeper

[hybrid ridge]

I think it’s overkill to have multiple roles that are purely voice changers

[little crest]

It's kind of overkill already because there was already a voice manipulating one, it just happened to give no voice

[obtuse meteor]

one was a cover, another is a distractor so yes they both alter voices but they work entirely differently. the silencer almost guarantees a button call next meeting.. I'd say if they go with the deeper route it would just be a Party Duck upgrade if a certain given role was partied.

[little crest]

We can get the trifecta of messing up people during meetings duck roles

[pastel wasp]

not sure if this is an issue or working as intended!? Duck kills me through a wall cos I can see the gravy goose with birdwatcher powers! Then the duck is the other side of the wall and runs off 😂
https://www.twitch.tv/dickiemckay/clip/EnjoyableMoldyGnatSSSsss-thr9cOwXAzTLY5tY

[scarlet ledge]

sure that probably looked weird from the gravy's POV as well considering they probably just zipped through the wall in front of them

[green spruce]

Hello.
I have a question about the Discord channel.
Would you be willing to add a country text channel other than the IFG channel?
Some of the users do not speak English, but there are those who want to ask questions.
We know that channel management will be difficult, but please contact us.
thank you.

[latent arrow]

A Korean chat channel?

[green spruce]

Yes!

[latent arrow]

I suppose, no one has asked @sick verge is it possible?

[sick verge]

No one has asked before, I think if I really try, we could make it happen

[sick verge]

#chat-한국어-korean

[green spruce]

WOW! Thank you very much! I love you GGD team

[silent hedge]

But bro, Only Kr has separated chat server. Is that ok?

Other country people also want to chat their own server too

[sick verge]

Other country people haven't asked...

[sick verge]

see?

[silent hedge]

Hmm.. Not at all.. But they think maybe.

[sick verge]

If they really wanted it, they would ask

[green spruce]

Can you please increase the item drop rate?

[green spruce]

That wouldn't be fun at all then

[limber fox]

I signed in with game center on mobile goose goose duck… but there’s no way to sign in with game center on steam T_T I already bought lots of gold… 🥺 Is there any solution for this situation? 😭

[viral coyote]

@limber fox We are working on merging accounts, it should be released very soon. Just trying to make sure it all works as it should, this will allow you to attach an email or google sign in account to the gaggle account so you can play on pc

[limber fox]

@viral coyote Thank u so much! I can’t wait for it 😭 Have a good day

[woven prairie]

i legit just wanted to suggest that 👀

[uneven bone]

Korean is fairly the most active, the #lfg-français for example only serves as a discord link to the more active discord server for french GGD

[sick verge]

"Other country people haven't asked." I understood the comment

[timber obsidian]

It's a trap so now I can punish people who post without a room code without bothering to translate what they're saying

[spare rivet]

b-bakana...

[uneven bone]

I wasn't implying you hadn't too, I was simply saying that most other lfg channels are less active.

[sick verge]

we know this... we read everything

[solid lake]

Mobile cannot use earphone microphones. It doesn't work.

Not AirPods

[silent hedge]

So do I.. I also want to know how to use mic earphone on mobile.

I tried everything to change mic setting from "default" but it was only default.

[viral coyote]

We are working on this issue where some Bluetooth devices don't work correctly or as expected. It is mainly down to how phone OS allows use of mic and speakers.

[silent hedge]

Thank you.. Please improve this problem ASAP, as Bro you know , this problem is neglected for a long time.

[viral coyote]

It has not been completely neglected, we have been gathering data and information about the issue as it only seems to affect a handful of people and the devices we have been using in house have been working. Working with 3rd party libraries and mobile OS is not the easiest of things. There is not many other mobile games that we know of that allow voice chat during game play.
There has been small changes in the updates to see if they help with the problem.

[silent hedge]

Thank you for all your assistance. Please keep trying to improve for better GGD. GL

Someone joined my private game and is being toxic/abusive/swearing/racist

Unfortunately, we cannot control when bad actors enter a private game, but we do empower you by providing tools to help moderate these games. Conversations that go on in private games are private, we do not have access to the audio in any way. Players themselves ultimately have control of who enters private games. You can block or mute the relevant players in-game and use the in-game censoring filter. If you are the lobby host, you can kick the offending players, and if you are not the host you can ask the host to kick them. Players who get kicked will not be able to rejoin the game unless permitted back in by the host. If the player in question is the host themselves, you and everyone else bothered by their behavior should leave and form a lobby of like-minded individuals, with your own agreed upon rules. If no one else in the game agrees with you, you probably shouldn't be playing in that lobby anyways.

Someone in a public game is being toxic/abusive/swearing/racist

Unfortunately, we cannot control when bad actors enter a public game, but we do empower you by providing tools to help moderate these games. Conversations that go on in public games are still private, and we do not have access to the audio in any way. You can block or mute the relevant players in-game and use the in-game censoring filter. You can report the offending player as well, and these reports will be attached to their account, and may result in bans. If you are the lobby host, you can kick the offending players, and if you are not the host you can ask the host to kick them. Players who are kicked will not be able to rejoin the game unless permitted back in by the host. If the player in question is the host, and a sufficient number of players block their mics, they will be kicked from the game, and once again that will be reflected on their account.

[chrome crescent]

so on apple mobile if you sign in on a gaggle account but later sign out and create a new account under a new email and new user name you will find that it still shows the same username from the last account only way i see fixing this with out it being internal is deleting the app and redownloading but yet to do that ill update if thats successful after stream today

[uneven bone]

How about #troubleshooting-and-bug-reports?

[obtuse meteor]

feedback is appropriate for that, imo

[latent arrow]

Both work

[uneven bone]

Don't get me wrong it is feedback but it's also a bug

[latent arrow]

It doesn't matter, it was reported. We see it 🙂

[viral coyote]

The username you set in the top right before joining a game? Or friends list name?
The Nickname will always be Persistent across all accounts, this is stored against the app not an account.
The friend name, should change it is assigned to the account

[chrome crescent]

The friend name was changed well technically it was added since it was a new account both times I logged in however wasn’t successful the first time . I resolved the issues already . By deleting the app and reinstalling it . And signing in to the new account
Also sent buzz a photo

[silent hedge]

In the goose chapel ,I'm just locking the valve, but there are too many fuxxing people who are accusing me of doing a sabotage. Rather, please just make all sabotage missions overlap with regular missions.

As people's game level rises, ducks are getting more and more disadvantaged.

So hard to win for the ducks perspective in the high level game

[silent hedge]

Both geese and ducks can`t do overlapping missions because they are afraid that they will be accused of doing sabotage missions.

[obtuse meteor]

nah thats well intended

[silent hedge]

mean, at least not having a separate sabotage mission looks good. Because beginners don't know well about it, and in high-level game can't do separated missions at all except dead ghost

[little crest]

Getting caught doing the chandalier sabotage is a real death sentence, only time I see people do it is when lights are off or if you're a dodo.

[timber obsidian]

i always start mallard manor as a goose by going to the chandelier sabotage

give the ducks a little cover

[scarlet ledge]

Every map, i go to sabo tasks first when i'm a goose just so i can get the sheriff who likes to camp them out

[glacial kernel]

Chandelier is a good way for dead ducks to up their kill count. Basically provides a (somewhat unreliable due to delay) way to kill from beyond the grave, and ghosts can unlock it with no issues

[obtuse meteor]

I called the ropes task "Sheriff bait" and I'd honestly fake doing that task as a goose role esp if I got one I didn't enjoy... Now Gravy is a great role to go there as, since many people stop... you are likely to survive a kill unless its a driveby before people gather

It also gives natural Dodo a suspicious move.. Or as a duck, get someone to stop near one while you talk and hope a sheriff or vigi shoot them thinking they are doing the sabotage... Best bet is to spy someone doing a fake task then take them out as sheriff or vig.. after it gts called

[green spruce]

I always do chandalier with lights off or when my imposter is arround so we can do double if needed

[silent hedge]

Definitely, srf and vigi can kill someone who seem to be doing sabo. But they often kill innocent gooses who doing normal overlapping. So, do the goose who do normal mission have to die innocently bcz did overlapping ?

This is factor people fight every day.

Always start with not overlap i.o sabo not to die unfairly

Srf said, hey u guy, you just did sabo! Then , someone dosen't sabo said, no I'm not! And then srf kill innocent afterthat expolde together. The biggest problem is they argue even after becoming a ghost. I 've seen this problem in KR 10times a day.

How about allowing the ducks to solve the sabo by themsleves after a certain period of time on the wrist, rather than in a certain location?

[green spruce]

My opinion is a little different.
Conversely, if the goose don't do the mission, you can find the ducks.
In the case of the dodo, you can take advantage of this.

저는 이점을 이용해 오리를 더 찾기 쉽게 할 수있다고 봐요.
도도새가 이걸 이용할 수도 있구요.
실제로 이걸 사용하니 거위가 해도 도도새 의심을 받기도 하구요.

[sick verge]

Sounds like the groups you play with need to adjust play style. They are aware of these situations, but they have a itchy trigger finger

There are various ways to get around being detected doing sabotages

and various ways of avoiding being accused of doing a sabotage

[silent hedge]

제말은 , 매일같이 겹치는미션에서 사보한다고 무지성으로 칼을 갈기는 인간들이있어요 . 그인간때문에 게임분위기가 매일같이 곱창나는데 차라리그냥 사보를 분리하던가 아예 오버래핑시키던가해야될거같네요. 요즘 너무 싸웁니다 사람들이것때문에

[sick verge]

When I do a sabotage I say "I am doing the light sabotage please give me a minute" and people for some reason think I am lying and leave me to it

[green spruce]

So, sabotage that only ducks can do is done after a long time, or let dead ducks do it.
Or do another sabotage and then do the mission.

오리만이 할 수 있는 사보퀘는 오랜 시간이 지난 후에 하거나 죽어버린 오리가 하도록 내버려 둡니다.
또는 다른 사보퀘를 수행한 다음 사보퀘 하기도하구요.

If you become a goose, I think you can do a mission that overlaps with the sabotage mission at the end.

거위일때는 사보퀘랑 겹치는 미션을 마지막에 할거 같아요

I think it would be better to apply some rules before proceeding with the game.

게임 진행전에 조금 룰을 적용 하는게 좋을거 같아요

[silent hedge]

Alright I know , this normal situ. This right situ that I think but there are so many weird people to kill just sus. I think to prevent them, need to prevent as a systemically in game

[green spruce]

Think it would be good to consider the duck's position as well.
have to kill it as easily as possible.

[silent hedge]

Yeah, What I'm saying now is this.

[jovial anchor]

I think changing randomly sabotage location each game is good option

Some people who memorize the sabtoage location use their speculation to find out ducks.

[silent hedge]

Exactly what I want

[timber obsidian]

we're okay with that

[obtuse meteor]

memorize? you mean learn after playing duck as 1 round?

[woven breach]

응 아냐

[silver canopy]

hey Herbert, we can't pass the vote after the sniper dead himself and everyone voted. that time makes us nuisensely

[silent hedge]

Dear managers, Pleaese make #chat-한국어-korean server can upload and share the funny photo like #💬︱general

[sick verge]

#📷︱photo-gallery ?

[green spruce]

I think, requested it because couldn't attach a picture to the #lfg-한국어-korean channel.

[silent hedge]

yes.

[sick verge]

I understand why the request was made, why do you not want to share your funny photo with the rest of the world

[green spruce]

It's a misunderstanding.

[wide vector]

I do that all the time

[jovial anchor]

No, since sabotage locations are fixed, if the goose sees the one who is close to a sabotage location, then the goose thinks that he/she is the duck who tries to unlock the sabotage.

[obtuse meteor]

if it isn't fixed, then you'll make the game way easier for ducks than it should be

one or two is fine, but randomizing them each game would get annoying as a sheriff or vig... can't see who might have unlocked one... cause it could be any, so there would be no deduction on sabotages

[jovial anchor]

I just wish there is the option that randomizies the sabotage location can be turned on/off

[jovial anchor]

For those who plays this game a lot, the deduction using the sabotage makes ducks easily detected.

[obtuse meteor]

i give up trying to explain, deduction needs a slight base.. dodo's also use them to win and a good duck won't go to those sabotages first round... geese often get sheriff shot by doing tasks near these or even just walking into the room.. to randomize sabotage starters would remove all deduction from sabotages cause you could never know what task it was

[jovial anchor]

So do you disagree making the option that randomizies the sabotage location? I just wanna the option. Not just "the game must randomizies the location".

[jovial anchor]

Good geese distinguish between dodo and ducks. Also, In terms of ducks, good geese do mission so quickly. So the duck has to unlock sabotages as soon as possible for winning the game. If ducks do not unlock sabotages quickly, the game would be easily over by the geese who finish the mission quickly.

[obtuse meteor]

I am saying I do not think we need random sabotages... that it would make the game worse... less for us to deduce

and I see games won all the time with no sabotages used

[jovial anchor]

So you are saying that we not need the option.

However I again say that option and default(or requirement?) are different.

[jovial anchor]

Adding option does not directly make the game worse. You just turn off the option whatever you want.

[obtuse meteor]

can you stop directly replying to me, you can reply in channel without pinging me

[uneven bone]

There's non pingable replies like this one and yes I see that was exactly what you said 😅

[obtuse meteor]

alex, thats exactly what I asked him to stop, its just us talking and I didn't need 2-3 notifications each time.. it got annoying

[jovial anchor]

Ok, I will less use pinging for reply. I didn't mean it.

[obtuse meteor]

its okay and the back and forth wasn't needed, I felt like I said my same opinion over and over.. I wasn't expecting replies each time. I understood it fully the first time it was mentioned. And a Dev even said they are okay with the fact that people who play enough will know where sabotages are. They continually balance the game and add new roles to break up the meta. Now Dodo doesn't fake sabo's round 1 if the dueling is enabled. I got shot as a goose saying HELLO to a sheriff who was prone waiting for a duck to do lights sabo. Proxy chat changes things up. Often in a full lobby I never unlock a sabotage until I am a dead duck. Sometimes I unlock a sabotage, like Chandalier, then use it on myself. I unlock shuttle sabotage and get on the shuttle, then use it. Sometimes I get spotted, most of the time I don't. And "good" geese are hard to find, someone is usually slacking on tasks.. If lovers are on they might be avoiding it so they can pull that lover win. I just feel that random sabotages.. toggle or not... would just make deduction even harder. If fire goes off and you have no idea what room it could have been unlocked from.. there goes any suspicion anyone could throw... Bob: Joe did the fire task!. Joe: No, I plunged the toilet!.. Bob: Exactly... Thats one of the 10 spots you can unlock the fire... Joe: Who else is on a fire sabotage starting task? Sally: Me! Hank: Yup. Coral: Does doing dishes count? Bob: YES THE DISHES COUNT.... Dobs: So everyone is guilty?

[crimson notch]

Randomness in map features breaks deduction and does not belong in Classic or C+

[green spruce]

How about adding a random map function when you start a game?
(It would be difficult to add that function, right? )

Come to think of it... Room code will be a problem.....

[uneven bone]

Yeah, if they weren't then people wouldn't have to move lobbies every time

[green spruce]

[timber obsidian]

tell everyone to close your eyes

and then you click randomly

[sick verge]

There is a report feature in public games. Eventually this will be added to the friends system.

I paid for gold on steam, but the gold didn't come in

[crimson needle]

I’ve purchased a pack or a gold coin bundle, but they aren’t in my account!

When you make a purchase through steam, steam will first authenticate the transaction and place your funds in your steam wallet. Once the funds are there, attempt to purchase the pack or gold coin bundle again. Restart your client, and your purchased items should be on your account.

[stark quest]

I hope GGD has a function of following friends... Not only invite

[timber obsidian]

i'll DM you

[hybrid ridge]

I wouldn’t want my entire friends list trying to join my lobby if I wanna play with other people

[stark quest]

It's very uncomfortable that I can't invite someone when we're playing a game after talking about it together. and... I want to go in when I want to play GGD with my friends.

I don't think all the added friends will come to my lobby. lol

[obtuse meteor]

Thats when you DM the room code, if its private and not full they can join to spectate (if its on)

and they are looking into DM's ingame, but I think they may be turned off for living birds during gameplay to avoid cheating

[timber obsidian]

it would probably just be a lobby feature

[green spruce]

Well, you could add something like "Turn off Friend following" or smth like that into your Account settings or in Lobby settings.. 🤔

[frosty sigil]

I bought the starter pack but i didint get it. Can someone help me?

It's 100% certain either in a steam wallet still (non-complete transaction) or you added it to another e-mail account.

so what should i do..?

Been mostly loving Dueling Dodo, with one exception. When one player gets all short/easy tasks and the other gets random chance tasks like fishing or the Whack-a-mouse, it can feel unfair for that Dodo.

Maybe not give dodos the random chance tasks? (I've used the search feature, couldn't find anything about this being mentioned)

[scarlet ledge]

I mean it is all about luck

[crimson notch]

I'd refer you to this post in #live-birds
#live-birds message

The first thing you should do as the Dueling Dodo is to make an estimate on whether you have a good set of tasks or not. Realistically, if you have a round where you're the Dueling Dodo and you have a difficult set of tasks (like multiple 3-parters), you're not going to outpace the other Dodo. Where you're located relative to your tasks is relevant as well.

If you're very certain that you'll be outpaced no matter what, the best course of action is to spend time instead trying to figure out who the other dueling dodo is and to get them voted out or killed.

[scarlet ledge]

wrong channel for that, posting room codes randomly is how you lose the privilege of posting them completely, you want #lfg-english-over18 or whatever language you speak

Someone joined my private game and is being toxic/abusive/swearing/racist

Unfortunately, we cannot control when bad actors enter a private game, but we do empower you by providing tools to help moderate these games. Conversations that go on in private games are private, we do not have access to the audio in any way. Players themselves ultimately have control of who enters private games. You can block or mute the relevant players in-game and use the in-game censoring filter. If you are the lobby host, you can kick the offending players, and if you are not the host you can ask the host to kick them. Players who get kicked will not be able to rejoin the game unless permitted back in by the host. If the player in question is the host themselves, you and everyone else bothered by their behavior should leave and form a lobby of like-minded individuals, with your own agreed upon rules. If no one else in the game agrees with you, you probably shouldn't be playing in that lobby anyways.

Someone in a public game is being toxic/abusive/swearing/racist

Unfortunately, we cannot control when bad actors enter a public game, but we do empower you by providing tools to help moderate these games. Conversations that go on in public games are still private, and we do not have access to the audio in any way. You can block or mute the relevant players in-game and use the in-game censoring filter. You can report the offending player as well, and these reports will be attached to their account, and may result in bans. If you are the lobby host, you can kick the offending players, and if you are not the host you can ask the host to kick them. Players who are kicked will not be able to rejoin the game unless permitted back in by the host. If the player in question is the host, and a sufficient number of players block their mics, they will be kicked from the game, and once again that will be reflected on their account.

[potent zinc]

How can we report the offending player?

[crimson notch]

If a public game ^

If a private game, host should kick the offending player

[potent zinc]

it was a public game, and it says above, you can report the offending player

[gilded ginkgo]

You can also: 1) transform into another (morphing duck) to do this task.

or 2) silence the one who just saw you (silencer duck) -of course, that is fine only when only one has seen you-, and in the next round, you can kill him. however, the problem is that some players cheat and then easily that plan is broken. (Though right now I can't tell you if the silencer has the chandelier sabotage or not )

[crimson notch]

In the Players screen where you adjust player volumes, you can click the report button to report the player. This creates a report attached to their account. Multiple reports can and will lead to action taken against the account.

[potent zinc]

ohh. thanks!

now, if enough ppl block a person with the mic option, does it also kick them, even if they are not host?

yeah, the rudeness always seems to happen during a meeting..

something to consider, if ppl all or mostly block a player, it kicks them

[crimson notch]

In cases of extreme rudeness, I deafen myself (default keyboard hotkey is P), then go to the players menu to mute that person

[potent zinc]

yeah, but it would be nice to be able to remove a person if x amount of players mute them

but I can see why you leave it to host as well, as that could be abused

[crimson notch]

Definitely not during a game, as like you said, it would be very abuseable

[potent zinc]

in any case thanks @crimson notch

[crimson notch]

Not unreasonable for public lobbies though

[potent zinc]

yeah, this was for public lobby

[timber obsidian]

if enough people report someone in a public lobby

they will get kicked

[gilded ginkgo]

people are not offended by themselves, in general. most likely, a person who is supposedly offending others has been offended before, and more likely still by the very people who are in the lobby at the time. we are also completely free to decide who we want to read and who we don't, in the chat (or listent to in the case of voice chat); i think this is a great tool in case someone didn't know.

[potent zinc]

not always the case @gilded ginkgo some ppl are just there to only be chaotic

[gilded ginkgo]

i agree. each case is different.

[near mica]

Add a hotkey to call up the friends tab? On mobile, tapping it is just fine, but on PC, having a keybind would be helpful.

[latent arrow]

We don't want streamers to accidently call it up.

[rose bay]

streamers aren't really the majority of your user base though, right?

[latent arrow]

No but they are the majority of our user generated content by far which grows our player base.

[rose bay]

how about adding a streamer mode that disables such features like other games have?

[latent arrow]

We also don't want someone with 30k viewers getting spammed by their entire lot of people trying to find their friend ID

[rose bay]

every other game has it

[latent arrow]

@rose bay we already do quite a bit for that and we're not really sure that the speed in which you access your friend list is that important. Adding settings to remove settings is kinda nuts.

I can name another social deception game that not only doesn't have it but also makes it annoyingly difficult to protect streamers.

[rose bay]

yeah but social deception games aren't the majority of games

a lot of big games have streamer modes

nothing you are saying is helping your case

you are thinking too much on the streamer side than the normal user

[latent arrow]

I'm saying we've thought about this; and we decided it's not something we want to add in at the moment.

[rose bay]

games are about the normal user

kind of smells like some bullshit right there

but ok

your game

I also don't understand the feedback channel being mostly a place for managers to hangout and shoot everyone down as soon as they leave a suggestion

very bad community representation if you ask me

[latent arrow]

I'm not a "manager" in that sense but I appreciate feedback and we absolutely read everything. A ton of feedback makes it into the game and if a suggestion comes up enough times from enough users it's definitely considered. If it's something we've considered and decided against we take the time to explain it.

[rose bay]

I would suggest adding a feature voting system instead of a roasting channel

see what the people actually want

[latent arrow]

We get feedback from many many channels. This is just one of them. We want to be transparent about that. We receive messages on a number of platforms. Including a ton of e-mails.

We aggregate the feedback across a lot of channels.

There is no roasting going on here. I politely explained why it's not in the game right now.

Again we appreciate the feedback, leaving it is an option and we understand that. We don't expect it.

[rose bay]

I meant do what another indie-game, Phasmophobia, did and have a suggestion channel where if a suggestion gets enough reactions it will be bumped up to a more displayed channel that only has messages from the suggestion bot where the actual voting goes on

[latent arrow]

That's something you can definitely suggest instead of saying we're spewing BS. Definitely more tactful.

We actually respond to almost every suggestion

[final mulch]

if you feel your suggestions are not being responded to appropriately, take comfort that tens of thousands of others are happy they have this level of contact with the developers and owners of this game, something VERY few offer.

[latent arrow]

Some of the people with the goose /gaggle logo next to their name aren't managers. We're developers too.

[crimson needle]

Rule 3

RESPECT your other Geese (or Ducks)!

[rose bay]

"Add a hotkey to call up the friends tab? On mobile, tapping it is just fine, but on PC, having a keybind would be helpful." - Rognik#4512

"We don't want streamers to accidently call it up." - PileOPhish#8825

How in any way is this an appropriate response to your random everyday user? It is more like a PR cover up of "We don't feel like it"

Using streamers as excuses smh

[sick verge]

We could spend hours to respond in detail why we do and do not do things
"kind of smells like some bullshit right there" is not a respectful response so not sure what respect you expect in return

[rose bay]

I'm done with this because there is no benefit in me saying anymore since I was just trying to help someone else's suggestion get through.

[hybrid ridge]

I think the developers currently have other priorities at the moment and appreciate the feedback. They are responsive to the community and have given a valid reason as to why they do not currently plan to add it in. This channel isn’t intended to be used as a debate with the developers or to take shots at them.

Also, if someone really wants their suggestion to go through be sure to type %feedback at the beginning of your message

[latent arrow]

I am going to provide food for thought here. Just because someone makes an idea or a suggestion you agree with and we don't immediately put it in the game doesn't mean we don't respect the feedback. If I can provide a response as to why it is or isn't I will do so. If you're unhappy with that response and feel like we're subjugating the average player in favor of the streamer I understand. I am specifically saying we are not putting in "streamer tools" at the moment as well. I don't know where or how that comes off as a PR cover up for we don't feel like it. We've pushed 37 updates since the game launched 33 of them were content patches. We care a lot about the game and we feel like adding content to the game in conjunction with meaningful QoL features is important. I've expressed this many times here before and I've Implemented a number of suggestions personally and sometimes within days of them being asked. We're always having an open dialogue about what should be in the game and we're never favoring one type of player over the other. @rose bay, I encourage you to realize that we're a team of developers that hasn't slept in the last year pushing out more content than almost any game on Steam and we're going to continue to do so. As a matter of fact we're about to release another map this week! We encourage constructive conversations here and I hope you can appreciate that. As a developer, our time has to be spent on one thing at a time. Writing messages like this takes away from my development time but I feel it's important for our players to realize we care quite a bit about the suggestions and in no way want any of our players to feel like we are pushing their ideas to the wayside without consideration.

[rose bay]

"I encourage you to realize that we're a team of developers that hasn't slept in the last year pushing out more content" I would like you question your company policies there, seems more like slave labor not even giving the members sleep

[latent arrow]

The four founders of the company >>> we don't get paid by the hour and we don't make anything unless the game is a success.

We don't abide by policies because we're not employees.

We started the business to make fun games because our other business was shut down due to the pandemic. We all have a background in gaming and entertainment and we said why the hell not. We decided to make a free to play game the way we wanted to make it solely for the purpose of bringing people together during the pandemic. That's why we focus on voice chat integration. We also wanted it to be free because a lot of people were financially affected during covid. We felt that as a company our mission was "no player left behind" and that meant we didn't want someone being left out because of a few dollars they couldn't afford.

There is a lengthy backstory that a lot of the community members know because they ask 🙂

We have nothing to hide, we're an open book. As you spend more time here with the community you'll realize that were doing it because we love it. Not for a pay cheque. I can't speak for all of the Gaggle team, there are over 20 of us but I know that for a lot of us (especially the founders) we stay up late working because we're really trying to make this game a success.

[pearl basin]

hi i'm a dev. i sleep.

[latent arrow]

^^^ This is true, albeit at the weirdest hours but that's by choice.

[hybrid ridge]

The founders are the ones not sleeping in order to give you a good game. I don’t see why you’re trying to twist things to make Gaggle look bad. They have pushed out content updates faster than any other game that I’ve played.

[rose bay]

@latent arrow If you ask me,

• I believe the game is already a success with millions of downloads across platforms, and I'm sure a good chunk buy your micro-currency for the cosmetics that I see people always wearing in every game I have joined so far.

• The game hosts good content, if not better, compared to the other games of like minded gameplay.

• The community is wonderful in regards of player-player communication and inclusiveness of all languages.

I honestly have no problems with the game in general, I just believe it would be of minor inconvenience to add features for both the streamers and everyday joe that sees the game and decides to give it a try

Currently Goose Goose Duck seems very UGC (Streamer/Content Creator) driven, like they are the main force giving you guys players

Actually scratch that

I think GGD has grown enough as a snowball that was pushed by content creators to be built up more on it's own since the players like it

[latent arrow]

I don't mind answering that. Hot keys are simple in theory but not entirely simple to implement. This isn't the main reason why we would/wouldn't do it. There are a lot of situations where we need to ignore them and a lot of corner cases that need to be addressed every time we put something into a hot keyable address. Especially for a window that can interrupt your keystrokes or has input fields/active button links and isn't always accessible. This is also a specific window that behaves a lot like a chat screen window. It falls into a category of not needing to be rapidly accessed for us and as such we decided against putting a hot key on it.

We're also against giving streamer specific tools/options. We want to keep the settings panel and game options as flat as possible to not be overwhelming to new players.

We're not trying to cater to a specific group, we're trying to cater to all players equally. In parts of Asia our game is absolutely massive! We're so thankful for that. In EU and NA it's a much more challenging market to crack. We are slowly growing in those regions but being free to play gives us much better exposure in countries where most games are F2P.

In the "west" the notion of F2P usually means cheap, knock-off etc.

[rose bay]

You are speaking in old notions

Would you call "Call of Duty: Warzone", a free game, a cheap knock-off?

Fortnite?

There are many games in NA and EU that are free and get giant crowds due to being free and good

GGD has both qualities, your main wall is memes

And

[crimson notch]

usually

[rose bay]

I'm just gonna say it straight out, everyone know Among Us and flocks towards it

[crimson notch]

You can say Among Us, it isn't a banned term lol

[latent arrow]

That's a hard nut to crack...

[indigo sigil]

I like this more than among us and I've actually talked to the AU staff. The Devs here seem to care more

[crimson notch]

Among Us has a four year lead on GGD and had immense growth during the pandemic. I feel they've squandered their success and are just recently actually putting some work into upgrading their game.

[indigo sigil]

They didn't innovate on what made the game popular as they couldn't figure out what it was

[crimson notch]

Personally, vanilla AU isn't even fun anymore. My weekly group uses mods to make it fun 🙂

[rose bay]

I don't even know how to put into words what I want to say right now. Just think a little more about the community and future of the game because if it keeps going how I feel like it will, you will no longer have enough time to go through every feedback and adding these small things in the beginning is usually a lot better since people really like setting management and some don't

[indigo sigil]

They put a lot of what we want into the game and are innovating

[crimson notch]

I have faith in the Gaggle team

[indigo sigil]

Everytime I come back to play after a small break they got a new update

I didn't know I wanted a party duck

They gave it to us and we loved it lol

[rose bay]

btw a big pet peeve I've developed from the game is how easy it is to logout when trying to close the game

logout should always be in settings

idk how many times I've almost hit that log out button within the short time I've had the game downloaded

and it is annoying to even think about actually hitting it eventually

[indigo sigil]

Does Gaggle take inspiration from Town of Salem?

Speaking of which, do you have time to talk about role balancing 🙂

📖

[sick verge]

I'm actually not the best guy for that

[indigo sigil]

Summon the god of Balance!

[prisma steeple]

Town of Us the mod is awesome but Town of Salem being a text based game similar to Mafia I believe inspired that mod

[latent arrow]

We had it hidden away in the cog, we actually received a number of negative reviews from that. Unfortunately had to put it on the main screen. Didn't put it behind a secondary click and got bad reviews from people accidentally closing it. We're learning the best way. This way so far is the best way.

[latent arrow]

We take inspiration from many games we like. Town of Salem is one of them.

[latent arrow]

Yes

[latent arrow]

We've been holding up so far

[polar mural]

When on the main menu, I feel like instead of seeing an invite button on your friends list, you should have a button to request an invite to join whatever lobby your friends are in.

[latent arrow]

We can and will be looking into this

[prisma steeple]

I believe while not an answer directly I have a mind framing for this if you will. Consider things like Marvel and DC comics. Each in their own worlds make very compelling stories which are a lot of fun, I loved Wonder Woman and most of the MCU movies. However a crossover would not work quite as well given power scaling. Imagine Lex Luther fighting this world's Iron man with the suits he made to go toe to toe with Superman (without using Kryptonite) or equally an Ironman villain fighting Supes himself... it just doesn't work well. Considering other games like Town of Us, they have Sages with absolute identification power, and Altruist to bring back the DEAD who have seen all the roles. At worst the hard part becomes there convincing the people that need to be convinced that you are who you are. This is a very DC scaled world. Goose Goose Duck is by comparison more like the MCU, more tame but AMAZINGLY fun. NO Life / Death information crossing allowed, and no absolutes most of the time, intuition and fun are more the veins here than hard knowledge. Our assassin DIES if they misfire but we have units like the Pigeon and the Vulture, not the TIME LORD. If its more likely to make people laugh their collective s off or fits a note of inquiry and chaos rather than a no guess auto win path, its more likely the GGD style. We have many ducks that are focused on the win but also the party duck as an example, GGD is just fun oriented rather than bluffing superiority based at its core and that's what keeps it special.

[latent arrow]

I would have never though to use comic book universes to help explain it but it does somewhat make sense. Every universe needs their own version of The Tick though.

[near mica]

So THAT'S how the dodo was born!

[crimson notch]

Not sure if this is a big bug or not, but when unlocking the teleporter task, the old task complete noise sounds instead of the new one. Or maybe in addition to.

[little crest]

If I had to guess it's not a task in the sense of most of the other ones, so maybe it wasn't part of the update.

[latent arrow]

Its possible

will look into this

not top priority, thanks for letting us know

[green spruce]

when you play in korean version, for all other ducks when they sink it saids "they were a duck" except when the demolitionist die it saids "그는 오리였음니다" dunno if this is a bug even worth mentioning

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but I've "caught" sage twice in the fishing task, but never got it in my inventory. For the other fishing tasks, if you find a crystal, you get a crystal.

I think some of the boundaries of the topography should be more clearly marked. (Antechamber is marked only with bold lines, so it is a little difficult to distinguish.)

[green spruce]

I'm having an issue with the new map, for the find treasure task sometimes there's no coin in any of the places

[dull spire]

black swan best

Make sure you remove some of the loose tiles

There may be a coin hiding

[green spruce]

I have, there's no coin

[latent arrow]

We're fairly certain there is. :) we will keep an ear out for more reports of this.

[viral coyote]

It can be under one of the three floor tiles, or under the rubble.

[timber obsidian]

for clarity about the task

there are potentially up to three searchable spots (the location beneath the antechamber only has two), and in each of those three spots it can be underneath the rubble or underneath the removable tiles

[mortal lava]

Hello!

I have been playing in the Japanese community for nearly 50 hours.

So I found that if I continued to play in the same lobby, the rolls would be biased.

What actually happened was a spirit medium three times in a row. Or it may be assigned as a duck like every time.

When this happens, we are responding by recreating a new lobby.

Rebuilding the same lobby, which is new when playing with about 15 people, is a bit of a hassle, so I would be grateful if you could investigate and improve it.

If you can, it would be helpful to reload the lobby.

I'm sorry if this event has already been reported.

It uses Google Translate.

[crimson needle]

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.

PS: I was asked to rewrite this and to also up the tone of hostility level from 2/10 to 9/10. Have fun playing GGD!

[ionic orchid]

Is there any way to get Goose Goose Duck to send the voice chat audio to the system Default Communications Device output and keep all other audio from the game going to the system Default Device?

A lot of players that use mics (on a boom or stand or built into their device, that aren't on a headset) turn their head away from the mic while talking and can't hear them in meetings. It seems like all audio output is getting mixed to the system default audio device output, and it would really be nice to have the voice proximity chat going to the communications output. Other games and Discord allow the voice to be sent to a communications output device, which gives me the chance to filter it through a dynamic compressor to boost voices when they get quiet (automatically adjusting the volume on the fly,) but if its mixed in with the game audio, that just doesn't work. It's good that there is an option to select the voice input device in the settings, but there are no options to set the voice output device that I could find in the game settings.

Turning the individual player volume up in GGD settings does not work for this issue, since they they are too loud when they actually talk directly into their mic. Also, PPT doesn't work while the settings are open, so I can't talk and adjust player volumes manually at the same time anyway.

[latent arrow]

This is a good point, we can definitely take a look into this and see if we can split the voice channel output. I'll task the team responsible for our audio to look into this

[mortal valve]

I dont know what's going on about other channels, but you should hire experienced or determined people. Specially I am talking about #lfg-türkçe , not selfish people please 🙏

[timber obsidian]

they're just volunteers

trying to keep the channel clean

[mortal valve]

Yeah, I know that too. Thank you for your reply. I mean that they are using this moderator permission in the game and in the other discord channels.

[crimson notch]

Having a moderator role in the Discord has no impact on gameplay. There is no benefit in-game to being a moderator.

[mortal valve]

Right, just some people think it might be. Unfortunately.

Anyway thank you guys🙏

[loud wave]

I have a question for gaggle, when you die to the poison blowdart animation why does the beak swell with a growth caused by the poison? Are you saying the goose beaks are not made of keratin like other geese? Is this your way of admitting that these are not real geese but rather some strange human shaped like a goose that are grown in vats on the nexus map?

follow up question if the geese are grown in the vats whose eggs are we incubating?

[latent arrow]

Growing geese in vats is important for deep space travel.

[loud wave]

but the jungle geese have fake beaks

[latent arrow]

No

[loud wave]

ok

[latent arrow]

You're asking the wrong question....

You should be asking what is in the poison.

[loud wave]

oh my

whats in the poison shawn...

[latent arrow]

Really bad stuff

[loud wave]

lol

now I am trying to find out if there is a real element that does that to keratin or if you guys invented a new poison haha

ok so its an unknown substance

I might be overthinking this but thats what makes games fun

for me at least lol

it makes sense

thats where they get the bird poison of a huge amount of potassium

Even when you do have something on the hook, it tends to have a brownish background instead of blue to match the background.

한국서버안들어가지는데요 러지련아

[sinful peak]

oooo that sucks, but at the same time it’s kinda cool all those roles intersecting like that.

i was under the impression that peatato sab would randomly eat ppl when sab’s activated, similar to the nexus transporter sab. that would have been fun.

[latent arrow]

Too strong I think. The point of this timed sab is to give more opportunity to the killers to execute. It's operating exactly as intended.

[ivory herald]

I can imagine, similar to the Nexus teleporter sabotage, a random goose gets eaten by the God as they walk past.
How grumpy the God is determines how likely to get eaten you are.

Ah well, what we got works fine too

[near mica]

The god sabotage is the only one on the jungle map that can give them a win. Can't take away the only win condition when only the falcon is left...

[tiny widget]

About the Mansion Map Electric Light Sabotage

There is a pile of leaves next to the sabotage mission, so that the goose can hide.
Because of this, it is difficult to use the light sabotage on the mansion map until one duck dies.

In the case of private rooms, in-game microphones are available, so the duck's winning rate is low.
Even the electric light sabotage is not available in the beginning, so the winning rate is even lower.

So, the location of the forest next to the sabotage.
I think it's better to move it under the stone on the lower left side of the yard.

I wonder what the Gaggle team thinks!

[vernal kindle]

I like the invite friend to game. How about send request to friend to join their game?

[green spruce]

They are already working on that #💡︱general-ideas message

[crimson notch]

Lights is a strong sabotage, and needs to come with risk. Either take the chance to unlock the sabotage, or work on better strategies to kill without it.

[tiny widget]

That's right. A light sabotage is a powerful duck skill.

The reason I asked this question is because in the case of Korean servers,
A goose that could hide, even a pigeon,
He hid in the bushes and guarded the light sabotage for several rounds.

The ducks take risks and do sabotage missions, but the goose that hides doesn't have any risk and just hides and tries to catch the duck, so I asked them. Thank you for your reply.

[obtuse meteor]

The downside of a hiding goose is they are not actively finding bodies to report or doing tasks.. The ducks don't need sabotages to win.

[timber obsidian]

This is intentional

[visual folio]

well ima go to bed now, cya in stream tomorrow and lets hope we get the laser sword

[sinful peak]

yeahhhhh! that’s the only time i’ll do light sab if i’m a duck, right away. otherwise i give it a few rounds and let the mechanic/pigeon get bored/confused of a duck not going to the sab; well at least not me, i won’t be the one getting voted out for that.

[sinful peak]

it wasn’t so much a sab idea, probably wrong category for me to post here. i was just saying it because everytime i walk past it i still think it might randomly munch on me. 🥔🍽

[spare rivet]

not sure if it's much of a bug, but I ate a body as vulture in the antechamber near the ledge with the money/jewels/charms task and it teleported me to the other side

was feet actually I think, left over from demo explosion

[timber obsidian]

thanks for the report

this is fixed for the next patch

[glad zephyr]

Suggestions:

Lobby features-
Passable Lobby Leader(requested before)
Symbol for current Lobby Leader(currently no symbol)
Auto-open lobby settings after creating lobby/changing maps(Everyone forgets to re-set roles)

Friends List-
Turn off notifications
Turn off friend requests(requested before)
Hide reject notifications/ignore request instead of reject

[pallid vapor]

instead of having the invite button next to your friends name, it should be a join button which teleports you to their lobby

and the invite button should be separate on the friends list so you can just check off the names that you wanna invite

[obtuse meteor]

many of us don't want friends to just auto-join us... like if we are doing a community game with certain discords, etc. it can fill up too fast and people not in those communities would be locked out until someone leaves or gets kicked... Invites / Joining should be a reactive thing on the player in the game, not a proactive.

[green spruce]

It could be something like "Request to join" or something like that.

[raw sentinel]

I do feel that certain roles are too problematic if put with each other. Namely the demo and vulture combo together are one of the hardest to counter for both duck and goose.

Can be countered if somebody keeps watching the corpse... but goose do have to do tasks, and everyone tends to run away from a timed bomb so might be too late to notice someone eating the corpse.

The idea of the duckling role posted in the other channel was my counter against such combo.

[winged grove]

Would it be possible to make "found material" and medium's ghost vision windows not overlap? Sometimes I want to use the ability right after a task but it ends up getting wasted bc of random materials

Maybe this would be better in the other channel

[timber obsidian]

no its fine

this is probably going to be changed for the next patch

materials -> comms -> medium -> celebrity

from bottom to top, is going to be the layering

[glacial kernel]

Vulture is already the hardest role to win as, giving it a boost in demo games isn’t a terrible thing.

[half edge]

You also can disable vulture in a game that has a demo duck if you dont like that particular dynamic

[raw sentinel]

Obviously, but not everyone knows about it

[half edge]

Not everyone knows that excessive exposure to the sun can cause skin cancer but we cant force them to remain inside or wear sunscreen so..

[raw sentinel]

I wasn't implying to begin with metaphorically for them to remain inside, or wear sunscreen (Choosing either to go with vulture/demo/none). But metaphorically adding a nice shade (Duckling to add to the challenge to both).

[half edge]

But, back to your argument about people not knowing about it. The same could be applied to the duckling, not everyone would know that the duckling is a possible solution or mitigation to the vulture dilemma.

Yes I do plan on writing a philosophy textbook that covers "The Vulture Dilemma"

[red cloak]

It’s not like disabling roles is a hidden feature, if people don’t know about it that’s on them. A new role doesn’t need to be added to “fix” it

[raw sentinel]

Usually when Gaggle puts new ducks they tend to put some animations in relations to them. Plus if Duckling is put there could be a uno reverse gamemode where ducklings need to hide, while vultures eat them. an improved hide and seek. (with speed modifiers and such)

[obtuse notch]

Apologies if this is the wrong channel. I think this is a question rather than a glitch, so I didn’t open a ticket. Spy, mortician, falcon and gravy were in a room together and spy was able to kill gravy. How? Shouldn’t it have bounced and killed mortician or falcon?

[raw sentinel]

spy in meetings is a role that detects roles, not assassinate, gravy is meant to be killed in-game

[half edge]

Do you mean Assassin?

[obtuse notch]

No. Was not in meeting. Was in-game

[raw sentinel]

assassins can't kill gravy in meetings, the plus of the gravy.

[glacial kernel]

If the Mortician and Falcon were out of the kill range then the Spy could kill the gravy.
If not then it's probably a bug

[timber obsidian]

its probably just lag, and the spy didnt have anyone else in range on their screen

or from their perspective, rather

[raw sentinel]

ah

[obtuse notch]

That makes sense. I’ve been trying to figure out how close kill range is

[timber obsidian]

the gravy definitely works right now, but how it works is

from the killer's computer, it checks if the target is the gravy

and if yes, is there anyone else there

so where this can 'fail', so to speak, is if the 'is there anyone else there' check says no

even though from different perspectives, there are

[obtuse notch]

Got it. So we saw it happen because we were in the room, but spy’s computer didn’t see us

[timber obsidian]

yeah.. or its an edge of range scenario

[raw sentinel]

Oh which that does explain some "lag" kills in the past as well. (Very rare, but it does happen)

[obtuse notch]

Thank you so much!

[timber obsidian]

if you imagine the red circle is the range of the spy

then at the point when they hit spacebar, there is no one else in the circle, the gravy dies

[obtuse notch]

That makes total sense. Is this the right channel for these sorts of “how did that happen” questions?

[raw sentinel]

Troubleshooting channel works too, but it's feels like a feedback as well.

[timber obsidian]

you can make a ticket if you want

i dont know that its really feedback, but if its not a bug we'll just tell you and move on lol

not really that big of a deal

[raw sentinel]

It's felt more of a quick question which can help others see it, so both are good. IMO.

[crimson notch]

This is a really nice way to succinctly show how the Gravy deflect works. Kudos to the art team.

[latent arrow]

Gravy should always want to be on VERY near to the target

[plucky sierra]

A celebridade está sendo usada, pelo menos com quem eu jogo diariamente, de uma forma insuportável, ficam perguntando se tu sabe quem é a celebridade, já quem só os gansos sabem, dai se tu não sabe ou te votam pra fora ou te matam no jogo, e ainda assim não revelam quem é, pra continuar perguntando, e se, por sorte de a celebridade te contar, que acontece em 1% dos jogos, ou o espião achar ela enquanto esteve viva, ou por chute, tu já foi pego, (isso ainda tendo a celebridade viva porque né, ele não sabe se morreu ou não), o jogo gira em torno de saber quem é a celebridade, o canadense, para funcionar, ele precisa contar para alguém, além de ter roles que counteram ele, já a celebridade não tem jeito, é chutar e ter sorte. Eu acho que o jeito de balancear é ou os patos saberem quando a celebridade morre, ou na votação aparecer para eles, ou todos saberem quem é. (Eu sei que da para desativar, mas eu não sou o líder da sala e nem tenho um grande conjunto de pessoas que compartilham dessa opinião, mas por enquanto eu sempre ignoro quando a celebridade morre), desculpe pelo textão em português

[timber obsidian]

se os patos sabem quando a celebridade morre, mas são eles que a matam, isso não é um problema?

[plucky sierra]

Depende do momento, exemplos: Tu está conversando com 3, dai um sai e você fica com o outro e mata, o outro sabe que foi você que matou, ou um grupo de pessoas foi junto, um deles sendo a celebridade, e um tempo depois ele morre, tu sabe que tem grande chance de ser daquele grupo, além de saber que alguém morreu, possibilitando de inocentar de morte quem está perto de você ou um pato e a celebridade trancados na segurança por exemplo e o pato mata e sai pela vent, mas por exemplo se mostrar para todo mundo apenas quando ocorre a votação (como se fosse analisado pelo legista/mortician) essa parte problemática de ficar perguntando pra todo mundo quem é a celebridade só ocorre na rodada que ela foi morta (mas dai provável de perguntarem se ela morreu quando ela ainda está viva), mas pós morte dela esse problema é resolvido, e não vira um jogo chato de descobrir ou chutar quem é a celebridade, o único que se beneficia disso é o dodo (ou não se suspeitarem, dai matando-o com um xerife ou vigilante), então o que eu sugiro de mudança: Quando a celebridade é morta, só os gansos sabem, porém quando é chamada a reunião de qualquer maneira, ela é revelada para todos

Só a existência dessa role é um problema, já que ficam perguntando se a celebridade morreu, mesmo no fim ela nem estar na partida

E a celebridade é a forma mais fácil de inocentar alguém, já que quando ela morre, é só tu falar que a pessoa x era a celebridade (para alguém já inocentado)

Não precisa de skill, e é absurda de forte, muito superior a um canadense

[crimson notch]

I find Celebrity is strongly countered by Dodo. A smart group will strongly consider whether to vote someone out just because they can't answer the Celebrity question. I've seen a great number of Dodo wins when groups push the Celebrity question.

Send the Sheriff or Vigilante to take out someone who can't answer the question.

Acho que Celebrity é fortemente combatido por Dodo. Um grupo inteligente considerará fortemente se deve votar em alguém apenas porque não pode responder à pergunta sobre Celebridade. Já vi um grande número de vitórias em Dodô quando grupos pressionam a questão Celebridade.
Envie o Xerife ou o Vigilante para tirar alguém que não pode responder à pergunta.

[timber obsidian]

a verdade é que eu tinha originalmente projetado a celebridade para ser uma alternativa ao canadense. seria o americano. no entanto, eu não sou surdo à sua situação. vamos diminuir o poder dele no próximo patch. ninguém mais vai saber porque ninguém vai se incomodar em traduzir isso

The same voice-related origin party can be a vent, but why can't the silencer be a vent?

The ability to silencer is okay, but I think the evaluation is low because there's no vent.

[near mica]

The trade-off for being able to silence is the inability to vent. The trick is to silence a person, then get them voted out or killed before they can spill the beans.

[timber obsidian]

we've talked about it internally

maybe in the future it will follow a similar setup

[final elk]

Suggestions for Hitman and Bodyguard,
Bodyguards are invincible when protecting targets.
(If they're alone or caught by another duck, they'll die normally.)
They don't know whether they protected their target until the game is over.
(They are compensated for silver as many times as they protect it)
If Hitman is disturbed by targets bodyguard, they fails the mission and loses they chance of murder.
(They are given a cool down just as they were when they murdered)
The targets of Hitman and Bodyguard change every round. After the meeting, the target appears on the right. Hitman gives a new target per round, whether they fails or succeeds in they goal, and rewards them in proportion to his successful goal at the end of the game.
The sentence is awkward. Sorry. I used a translator.

Or I think it would be nice to have a costume that can be unlocked if you protect it with a bodyguard or handle the target more than a certain number of times with a hitman.
(If you don't mind, I can suggest a design.)
I hope the bodyguard and the hitman will get more attention and more achievements.

[scarlet ledge]

By invincible do you mean that if someone tries to kill the person they are protecting it just doesn't work?

[final elk]

its mean bodyguards invincible only when protecting from hitmen.

[scarlet ledge]

if you are saying what I think you are, that goes against the "Kill button always works" rule

[wise sonnet]

Oh, this place has a feedback chatroom

Ok, so, politician. Why so lame. Make him vote twice

That seems so obvious, and logical from so many angles

[glacial kernel]

Pro tip: Bodyguard is powerful entirely because you have one person who you know isn’t a duck.
Information is power, and not many roles give out bombshells like that.

[pearl locust]

I've already made a suggestion

[pearl locust]

[glacial kernel]

Voting is the only reliable avenue the geese have to eliminate threats. The devs don’t want to mess with it too much.

politician and locksmith, while only situationally useful, instantly confirm themselves once the situation works in their favor.

[wise sonnet]

What about the ninja duck? That mfer can kill 2 with one click, that breaks rules, no?

These sorts of rules are made to be broken, giving politician 2 votes can only help the game

[pearl locust]

I don't know how ninja ducks will be added, but I heard politicians definitely can't.

[wise sonnet]

Well, that sucks, whatever

Thanks for the replies, my fellow ducks

[glacial kernel]

While yes, the ninja duck’s double kill is pretty op, if it weren’t for the fact it has 3x the kill cooldown of other ducks, and to make it go faster it has to sit in the fog for most of it’s game time. It’s hard to answer questions on where you were when where you were was in the fog for the entire game.

The main aspect is that all roles have a “counterplay” so to speak, a way to work around said role. Giving the politician 2x votes is something that can’t be negated by strategy, but would also only end up mattering in late game 1v1s (which is when the current politician gets powerful).

[pearl locust]

To be honest, the cool time of the ninja duck seems to be too long.The number of professionals also rose by 50%, but wouldn't it be appropriate for ninja ducks to rise by 250%?

Even if the basic cool time is 20 seconds, you have to wait a minute to kill a ninja duck.

[wise sonnet]

Is there counterplay to snoop?

Can a pigeon push him out

[glacial kernel]

it’s a pretty suspicious claim. A good old “I haven’t seen X anywhere” or even just “X went into the leaf pile” if you saw it is usually enough to either get them voted out, or to send a hint to the assassin

[glacial kernel]

If we wanna get mathematical, the double kill effectively gives it a x1.5 cooldown, and it lowers faster in the mists.
Either way, the ability to fake Sheriff and Lover deaths is extremely powerful, the cooldown just serves to give players time.

[pearl locust]

You're right, but there's also a drawback.Which duck can wait for a minute without killing anyone?

No matter how effective it is, if you can't use it, it's useless.

If you go into acting, the cool time goes fast, but assuming that you don't go in, it will be a harder job to kill than you think.Can anyone kill anyone for a minute, including the sheriff, the vigilante, the dueling dodos, the falcon, and even the other ducks?

[glacial kernel]

Sounds like in that case you should become a technician’s daydream and a detective’s worst nightmare.

And besides, once you get long enough into the game, the rounds get long enough to let you kill, and geese are so few and far between that a double kill could mean an instant win.

[scarlet ledge]

As with any role, the biggest pro or con to them, is how the player chooses to use them. You are given game mechanics, it is up to you to find a way to make them work to your advantage. The biggest balancing factor in any game of social deduction is the player themselves and how well they either deceive or deduce to win the game. The game isn't so much "kill everyone as fast as I can to end the game" so much as it is "how can I kill the other players and get away with it?"

[timber obsidian]

Try out the role first

[green spruce]

It's worth itm in fog your cooldown loads up faster and u end up with and double kill. Profesional has to wait almost same ammount of time just for one kill. I don't think its too high..

[crimson notch]

The key with Ninja (I think) is that their kill cooldown does not reset with meetings. While you could hide in the Forbidden Passage, spending the first round doing fake tasks gives you an alibi and will likely burn through most of that extended cooldown.

[latent arrow]

The ninja isn't a mindless killer. They are a slow and methodological assassin.

Stay in the shadows and strike at the most opportune moments.

[pearl locust]

🏳️

I'll talk to you again when I add ninja later.

[visual folio]

That's right. A light sabotage is a powerful duck skill.

The reason I asked this question is because in the case of Korean servers,
A goose that could hide, even a pigeon,
He hid in the bushes and guarded the light sabotage for several rounds.

The ducks take risks and do sabotage missions, but the goose that hides doesn't have any risk and just hides and tries to catch the duck, so I asked them. Thank you for your reply.

[timber obsidian]

i agree with you to some degree

and thats why jungle temple has secret passageways instead of vents

[winged grove]

Maybe make it so the celebrity is only a mystery in the first meeting after their death, then give their slot a unique appearance for everyone to see in the next meetings

just sharing an idea

heres something to think about for the new map theres a sabo/(what ever u want to call it ) for the geese ware the fog goes away for a set time ware u can see ppl in the fog?

[timber obsidian]

you want a goose sabotage?

[ivory herald]

The mimic goose is your only real choice here.
That and paying attention to who you've seen and not seen for most of the game.

As it is, a duck going into the fog can be risky with the mimic and pigeon able to out them without even going into the fog themself

[gloomy thistle]

i have bad luck in going in to the fog i wanted to give my feedback

All feedback is valid. Just giving a counter point to it

[pearl locust]

Which map can I use except for adventerer among the jobs that are coming out this time?

[ivory herald]

Mallard manor and Jungle Temple

[pearl locust]

So that forbidden area of ninja includes closets?

[alpine nacelle]

Can there be a way that if someone disconnects, and then reconnects mid-game, that they don't lose their position and get kicked to the back of the line? For example, if a host is host, and they disconnect, they can retain their position as host if they DC but then reconnect successfully mid-game?

[alpine nacelle]

And perhaps a way for a host to assign somebirdy else to host?

[obtuse meteor]

both have been suggested and if the game is open for spectators anyone with the code can end up joining and filling that spot, many would find it unfair to hold that spot cause the "dc" player isn't guaranteed to return and other people might be waiting to join

but some want the dc person to have that spot, its one of those catch22 options

[latent arrow]

Top on our list of qol features

[ivory herald]

The Ninja is exclusive to Jungle Temple map

I think allowing cooldown increments of 5 seconds would be nice. especially with the new addition of the ninja role. sometimes 20 seconds seems like not enough but 30 seconds is too much or 10 is too short but 20 seconds is too much etc

I was so disappointed! I was Ninja, waited a round and when Pigeon saw me in the fog, I chased them to another person, the two were right beside each other, I used my NINJA aaaaand.. only one died, and I was killed by the person beside them… so, that was lame 😓

[timber obsidian]

well you know what they say

dont miss

[ivory herald]

The Ninja can kill multiple people, but both must still be inside your kill radius, which can sometimes be tricky to judge.

Something I never asked during testing, does the ninja override the gravy's ability to deflect kills to those nearby?

[timber obsidian]

if there's two people next to him yes

if its just him + 1 other, they both get cleaved

[latent arrow]

Never first

These aren't really considered big issues, but a few things I've noticed on the new Jungle map is that

The mice in the two mouse holes move around slower as opposed to other mouse hole tasks in other maps

The fishing task, unlike on other maps, has the lure fully submerge (not talking about the lure splashing slightly) which gives people the illusion that they caught what they're meant to catch, only to pull it up all the way and have nothing on the hook

The latter is really the most frustrating one

[timber obsidian]

the mice have been slowed down on all maps

we'll take a look at the fishing

[spare rivet]

ah apologies, I've been mainly playing Jungle

[tired falcon]

There was just something I noticed when playing in the lounge yesterday (The hangout mode). When it comes to the doors when you go into a private room when someone knocked there is no way to check who it is. Also if their was more then 1 person in the room if you wanted to open the door to let someone In you had to make sure all but 1 left the room first then you can open the door normally so people can enter the room. There were also a few bugs where the doors opened and closed themselfs.

Also if possible to add a few more interactive things in that space so people can spend a little more time doing things there

[neat geode]

I think there should be a button to report cheaters and negative players

Someone in a public game is being toxic/abusive/swearing/racist

Unfortunately, we cannot control when bad actors enter a public game, but we do empower you by providing tools to help moderate these games. Conversations that go on in public games are still private, and we do not have access to the audio in any way. You can block or mute the relevant players in-game and use the in-game censoring filter. You can report the offending player as well, and these reports will be attached to their account, and may result in bans. If you are the lobby host, you can kick the offending players, and if you are not the host you can ask the host to kick them. Players who are kicked will not be able to rejoin the game unless permitted back in by the host. If the player in question is the host, and a sufficient number of players block their mics, they will be kicked from the game, and once again that will be reflected on their account.

[sick verge]

there is a report feature in public lobbies

however private lobbies we are presuming you know who you are inviting to your lobby

whether or not people are kicked is at the discretion of the lobby host

Someone joined my private game and is being toxic/abusive/swearing/racist

Unfortunately, we cannot control when bad actors enter a private game, but we do empower you by providing tools to help moderate these games. Conversations that go on in private games are private, we do not have access to the audio in any way. Players themselves ultimately have control of who enters private games.

If you are the lobby host, you can kick the offending players, and if you are not the host you can ask the host to kick them. Players who get kicked will not be able to rejoin the game unless permitted back in by the host. If the player in question is the host themselves, you and everyone else bothered by their behavior should leave and form a lobby of like-minded individuals, with your own agreed upon rules. If no one else in the game agrees with you, you probably shouldn't be playing in that lobby anyways.

[neat geode]

"Pardon Kicked Players"

[near mica]

"Pardon Kicked Players" forgives everyone kicked. If a bad player was killed and a friend was idling too long, there's the chance of forgiving the bad player.

[obtuse meteor]

change map twice, once to another map, then back to the one you want to play on, not only do you keep the players (if they follow) you get a free new code! Then you just send that code to your friend. Its something I suggest a streamer does if they accidentally leak the code.

[near mica]

I guess that works, but it feels a bit annoying. shrug It was just a thought.

[obtuse meteor]

Its called a workaround, until/if they split up kick/ban, shrug all you want was just trying to help.

[near mica]

I appreciate that it's a workaround. It's inelegant, but it works. Often, I'd rather kick someone in a friendly manner than banning them, but it is what it is. Just so long as neither of us are offended and know we're being civil.

[obtuse meteor]

hey they actually update this game quite often that I rarely need a workaround, really this is the only one I've had for it as it is very recently added. Other games I've had decades of workarounds they will never fix.

[raw garden]

Hi, I found out that the vulture ate the corpse where the corpse was not there. like he ate the corpse infront of the bank, but the corpse in the factory was disapeeared and the game was totally gone wrong. Is there any reported bugs or is it just a one time glitch that worked in a game?

[ivory herald]

Was there a Demolitionist in the game?

[feral lagoon]

[pearl locust]

How does the number of silver coins you get after the game apply? Is the number of kills, missions, or other factors determined by evaluation?

[crimson notch]

Silver coins are given for length of game + any bounties (Gravy/Hitman/Bodyguard) + Pets

[half edge]

Is it "Scummy", to quote someone I played with, for the vulture (a NEUTRAL role) to sus the ducks? It's my understanding a neutral role isnt on the duck team and, even though its win condition is to eat bodies, can either help the ducks, help the geese or try and win

[ivory herald]

While not fair, it's up to the player how they use the information they have.

[half edge]

I mean, the ducks would kill the vulture at the first chance so I dont see how thats not fair, especially when theres a falcon in the mix too. By its very nature a neutral role serves its own interests.

[scarlet ledge]

one less duck means you can still eat bodies, but you have one less person to kill you

if that's how the vulture wants to play it is fair game, reminds me of the few players who have gotten very heated because we chose to vote the falcon off even though ducks were still alive

[half edge]

My thoughts exactly. I think a neutral role in general should be able to play however and to whatever goal they desire. For example, when I'm pigeon I basically play as a second mechanic/snoop without the obligation of doing tasks

[scarlet ledge]

Really comes down to people who think that the way they play a game is the "way it has to be played"

[half edge]

Well although there is some nuance and subjectivity to the matter, there is an objective case to be made here regardless of personal opinion. Ducks are a team so its implied they work together, same for geese but with neutral roles there's really no reasonable expectation of any particular way to play it.

[scarlet ledge]

see, in my eyes, the biggest part of any game is to have fun, and if you try to tell me that I should play it one way, I will damned well make sure I'm playing it in a way that annoys you the most

[half edge]

Agreed. I play how I want, but its difficult to have fun when you get called names for playing the way you want

[scarlet ledge]

see, I take the namecalling as proof that I'm succeeding in annoying them so it doesn't bother me any

[half edge]

I do see the appeal in annoyance, I guess I'm slightly more inclined to elicit laughs rather than annoyance from ppl xD

[scarlet ledge]

oh i'll go for laughs when I can, but the moment someone starts getting actually angry about something is the moment I will start taking time out of my game just to troll them

[crimson notch]

When people repeatedly use Neutrals to effectively team-swap, I kick them unless we're just doing a meme lobby. But that's just me and my preferences as host.

[scarlet ledge]

I never team swap, i just cause chaos XD

[ivory herald]

I don't mind one or two games where the neutral helps either the geese or ducks (and no, I don't mean they try to play their role, I mean they legitimately help the geese find all killers or help the ducks kill all the geese), but it is very unfun for you if you're the duck and the game has a vulture who keeps reporting all the bodies and instantly outing the closest people as killers. In these situations, you'll have no idea who the vulture is until they've reported 4 or 5 bodies, by which time it's too late to kill them off.

What is fun for one person is not fun for another, wins aren't even considered in this equation

[latent arrow]

I claim I am mortician every round.

To other people I claim to be Dodo, I make an effort to never report a body.

[obtuse meteor]

I mean thats why the ducks should kill vulture asap even if it outs one of them.

IMO I can play any role how I wish, I play them all as if I was dodo just so that when I am a dodo nobody believes me.

[crimson notch]

Ah, the Xizta gambit

[near mica]

If I were a duck and a vulture outs themselves as being on the geese's side, then I would be targeting them. Maybe even laying a trap. Maybe guaranteed assassin to get them out

I won't tell someone they have to play a certain way, but that doesn't mean I won't punish them for their choice.

[ivory herald]

But what if the vulture doesn't out themselves, only the ducks?
One body reported - okay, right place, right time.
Two reported, okay a bit unusual.
Three - okay that's clearly a vegan vulture, but you're probably the final duck left.

[near mica]

Well, that's the other side of things. Especially if they conspire with one of the ducks to duck the assassin.

[green spruce]

[pearl locust]

Can we add the reporting function and the microphone blocking function to the private room? It's really bad that you can't choose malicious users only in private rooms.

[scarlet ledge]

In private rooms it is the host's responsibility to police the room

[obtuse meteor]

I think it might be something they are looking into for client side, it won't auto ban them from your rooms but it could easily mark them on your screen so you could remove them. So far the workaround is just putting their volume down to 0 and not inviting them to your games. But you can't help who others invite to theirs and you can't choose their friends. But yes, reporting is essentially only for public unless its a provable hacking, but then you'd take that to the troubleshooting/bug channel and make a ticket. The #LFG channels are here for convenience of the community and are not required for private games, hence they won't police them. As the game develops though we might gain some QoL improvements, the friends list is one of those.

[pearl locust]

It's called "Invite Friends" but it's also a disadvantage that it doesn't have a "follow up" function.

[green spruce]

Gaggle Crew said they want to add something like "follow up" function but they have to make an option to also turn it off because it could be very annoying when u want to play with ur friends and some person from ur list keeps joining in, or when u are streaming with your Crew and all of sudden some fan from your list joins in.

one problem I notice as a new player is.. I can't find sabotages guide for each stage anywhere. Especially some stage that use icon instead of text, for examples, in GooseChapel, there are poison bottle-like icon, which I know it's related to poison but to whom and where ? and knife icon, which I have to wasted a turn to test it just to found out it was a door lock sabotage

[ivory herald]

I mean, you do them once and you learn. It's part of the fun.

That said, I have this covered. Eventually I'll release an app that tells players all about the game, sabotages, tasks, the maps, achievements, roles, etc.
However, finding the time to work on it is difficult, so progress is very slow.

Right now, everyone is playing ✔ for the role they want to come out and ❓for the other role. Sometimes, there are so many regular "duck" that don't get caught in any role

[crimson notch]

If you don't want regular Ducks in a game, you need at least three Duck roles with a check mark ✅ (in a game with three Ducks)

[valid sapphire]

%feedback

Hi Gaggle 🐣
Here are some thoughts that dozens of cardgame fans have been shared.
It would be grateful if you could have time to consider.
Lots of love from Korea ❤️

1. to finish the game properly even if some players leave halfway

• Currently, if someone leaves the game before it ends, it resets immediately. Totally nullified all the time the players have put. It makes players embarrassed and lose the focus/interest.
• I heard that some people mistakenly click the [Quit/Exit] instead of [Chat] because they are put close together in the mobile screen.

2. to add the reward system

• It will be more enjoyable(and competitive....) if players could get rewards such as coins, achievements and materials.

3. to protect players from intentional disturbances

• Some people play music, yell or talk so loud that cardgame players cannot talk to each other. But I think, asking them to be quiet and leave the table only for the cardgame players doesn't actually accord with the purpose of lounge. The real problem is, it hardly works. (Suggestion : How about setting tables in the private rooms where we can use 'Do not disturb'?)

4. to fix the bug that doesn't show the duck and one's cards.

• It appears for one player. It's solved only when the player with the bug quits and come back in.

5. to add the spectator mode

• Under the condition of no chatting(text and voice) allowed, it won't let waiting people get bored and will help the beginners understand the game more easily if we can see what's going on. Just reading the text manual is not enough to get in right away.

6. Do you have any plan for new minigames?

[finite violet]

Thanks @valid sapphire for your feedback, we'll be sure to look at it

[timber obsidian]

yes to minigames, and some of these suggestions are fair ones we will look into

[pearl locust]

I made a mistake. It's not ❌, it's ❓

[valid sapphire]

Thank you. Looking forward to the new ones 😆

[crimson notch]

❓ means that role has a 50% chance to be chosen for a relevant slot. If you have 3 Ducks in a game, and in the roles you have 2 ✅ and 3 ❓ selected, you will have the 2 for sure that were ✅ and you will have either 1 of the ❓ roles or a regular Duck.

[pearl locust]

I know that much

I don't know if it's the same with other people, but Koreans usually ✔ one or two and then ❓ the rest.And if you do that, there are times when regular ducks come out, so I suggested that

[crimson notch]

That's just how the game works. If you have a lot of ❓ you may have regular Ducks. If you don't want any regular Ducks, ✅ more Duck roles

[pearl locust]

What I want to say is a little complicated, but it's a little too much with a translator.We'll have to talk about it later

[pearl locust]

I heard that when the technician's sabotage support is displayed on the mini map, the black border? There's a rumor that it was done by a ghost without. Is that true?

Thanks @silent elbow for your feedback, we'll be sure to look at it

yes

thats what random is

if it could never pick the same player as a role three times in a row, that would not be random

[crimson needle]

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.

PS: I was asked to rewrite this and to also up the tone of hostility level from 2/10 to 9/10. Have fun playing GGD!

If in game, refer to the bot messages in #💬︱general if it was in DM's report via Discord and block that user

What system determines the four digits in front of the room code?Is it completely random?

Or is there a pattern?

[green spruce]

haven't find any patter in that one yet, only pattern i know is last 3 digits - map and then location

[pearl locust]

The pattern is long known...

I suddenly got curious because I saw more of the ***mmmu codes than I thought.

[green spruce]

I see

I'm not sure how it currently is in the game, but would it be possible to make it so you can move the cone vision (lantern mode) when inside a vent? The group i usually play with uses lantern mode to balance the pigeon, but the venting ability feels pretty useless when I can't rotate my vision inside of a vent

Ignore this if it already works that way

An additional risk of flashlight vision.
I used to play in lobbies where the pigeon / vulture had lowered vision or flashlight mode, it generally results in them being discovered very quickly due to being unable to see who is in a room, venting or not.
We eventually stopped playing with such settings to balance the game better.

@void iron Can we talk?

I never thought of that before, the only role that I change the vision for is the Dodo, which I set to very dark, but I think that makes it much funnier

[scarlet ledge]

nothing like punishing a player for getting randomly assigned a role

Hey, I'm just curious on the best path to report the use of hate symbols & hate speech in display names. On two separate occasions in two days I've been in lobbies where people have chosen to make use of these symbols as their names. I used the report function but there was no further steps, and the person was able to continue using that as their name for that game. I understand that these people are typically trolls, but that symbol is still harmful. Is there actually any way to deal with this or is it only possible to handle if you're in charge of the lobby? Can a filter be added?

I love the game and I have enjoyed playing it with my friends but to have it happen twice in a row (and to sadly see people make excuses for it) is starting to ruin the experience.

It won’t let me open the shop

[sick verge]

using Steam? Are your Steam overlays disabled?

[crude hull]

What steam overslays this is my fist time using steam

[sick verge]

open your steam settings and make sure this is checked

[crude hull]

Nvm I got it working

[near mica]

I mean, the dodo wants to get voted out, so if they don't know who is around, they're more likely to get voted out.

[near mica]

Aside of what you've done, the host can also kick players from the lobby. Aside from that, though, I think there's little other recourse at the moment.

We used to roll with the lower vision for pigeon / vulture to balance out their strength since we used to see them win a lot. Lower vision made eating bodies of finding sneeze victims harder...

We ended up eventually simply not turning either role on under 12 players
