Title: Come test the new build!
Post by: Keyvias on June 28, 2013, 06:27:19 am
We're putting some of the finishing touches on the newest build, but it we know it needs to be live fire tested.
If you're interested here's what I need you to do

All you need to do is join the steam group:
Guns of Icarus Experimental Crew
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/GoIEC


Thread locked as the new patch is out now!

Notes here: https://gunsoficarus.com/community/forum/index.php/topic,1604.0.html

I'm wondering if the clan system is in, because we'll surely need to explain it up and down the lobby on monday, if it's in :P Could check it out on Sunday :)

Sky piracy is a dangerous and delicate operation. Any advanced warning I can have of new airship technology gives me an edge.

Post by: Captain Smollett on June 28, 2013, 01:04:46 pm
Wait for reelz Sunder?  I was under the impression that the mine launcher was like bigfoot, the chupacabra or the Lochness monster or something.

Rumored and hinted at but never revealed to the world.

Can someone confirm this?  Pretty sure they've been saying mine launcher by the end of the month every month since February.
Title: Re: Come test the new build!
Post by: N-Sunderland on June 28, 2013, 01:06:43 pm
Yeah, for reelz. My word may not be official, but I'm just passing on what Muse said. It will be in the update, and this time it's for sure.

It was going to be in the one before the last one, or was it the one before that? ;)

Anyway, what next once we've signed up here and joined the group?
Title: Re: Come test the new build!
Post by: N-Sunderland on June 28, 2013, 01:10:57 pm
For those who missed it on the old forum, these were the mine launcher stats that were leaked when the weapons table got screwed up back in February

Quote from: PIckle
350 Impact, 150 Piercing, 80 AoE radius, 30 Clip, 20 second Reload, no Range listed.

Probably changed by now, but it should give us an idea of how devastatingly powerful mines are.

Anyway, what next once we've signed up here and joined the group?

I'm pretty sure that testing will start some time in the next couple of days, since the patch is going to be out rather soon.

I think that you'll find the Dev App in your Steam library once testing starts.

As for the Steam Group, follow the link on page one and you can join it.

There is a beta tab at the properties of GoIO in Steam, where you can enter a code to unlock private betas. I think that's where we'll activate it.

No, I don't think so. When Muse had the Cogs teams and CAs test out 1.2, they simply distributed the dev app to everybody. It appeared in our libraries without any need for codes or whatever.

Ok, just talked to Keyvias. The new "dev app" is up, but as of right now only players who had tested previously, through COGs or being a CA, currently have access. So don't worry if you don't have it yet. They are still doing 'internal' testing right now, but people who posted here will be getting added very soon. Personally, I can't wait  :D

Well Sunderland, since you got to test it and refuse to tell us a [censored] thing about the major stuff perhaps you can give us the smaller bits.
Are there any UI changes? Is the ship loadout screen changed? Does it show numbers instead of the attribute graph? Am I missing something from this list of questions?
Title: Re: Come test the new build!
Post by: N-Sunderland on July 02, 2013, 02:08:41 pm
UI changes: Yes. Massive ones. There's finally an Options button at the top accessible from the match lobbies, the chat is resizable and is split into global and match channels, look and role have been merged, and a bunch of other cool stuff.

The ship loadout screen was, as far as I could tell, identical to 1.2. The attribute graph was still a numberless graph.

Title: Re: Come test the new build!
Post by: Wazulu on July 02, 2013, 02:19:01 pm
According to Bubbles, Muse has organized a workaround with Steam in order to get players into the build. This workaround will take the form of Steam Keys, much like any other game. The keys will be distributed to those in the Steam group, and that would be the safest bet to getting in on the testing.

EDIT: my browser crashed halfway through typing this, but for some reason it also submitted it. Odd, but hilarious.

The gunner does tap into simplicity rather often, whereas a buff engineer does mass calculations and runs around with his head cut off for "extra" damage. You have fun with that.
Title: Re: Come test the new build!
Post by: Pickle on July 03, 2013, 09:10:53 am
I think you're specifically referring to a "good buffing engineer", rather than the achievement-chasing-swabbies-with-buff-hammers that plague daytime matches.

And why is it that it's now the fashion for a lot of engineers to carry a buff hammer but no extinguisher all of a sudden?  I'm losing track of the number of times in the last week or too I've found myself without an extinguisher on the ship, just lots of buffing hammers.  I've even had a couple of gunners calling for gun repairs because they've brought a buff hammer instead of a wrench..

Gunners can't afford to buff, so that's a no-no.

When I ask for a buffer, a lot of my engies ask if I want fire fighting or not. In very rare and specific circumstances would I ever want a spanner/mallet/buff engie. In random matches, i'd say they are looking for achievements rather than trying to be most efficient. Now if they ask beforehand, then they are genuine of course.
Title: Re: Come test the new build!
Post by: N-Sunderland on July 03, 2013, 09:20:47 am
Mallet/spanner/buff has become popular for engineers who don't really need to fight much fire (which has become more common since the fire nerf) and who gain more from the extra repair ability. This goes for the top right engi on the Pyra, one of the Squid engineers, one or two Junker engineers, the Goldfish buffgineer, and that's about it.

Also, I'm changing my mind about the meta next patch. Greased rounds are terrible. Still engineer x3 for the Pyra.

More specifically, for anyone who can't figure it out, the link to the steam group is on the first page of this thread. I'm assuming you've already joined it. After signing in, go to the discussions tab (default is overview). The discussion "Keys to get into dev app" is the one you want. Scroll down the comments until you find an unused key. Then go to Steam, look in the bottom left corner, and click "add a game" and then the option "Activate a product on Steam" When it prompts you for the code, enter the code from the steam group discussion. If it doesn't work try a different code. And voila, you're all set!

I did notice a few "taken this one, and this one for my friend" in the Steam group.. so that's why they're disappearing so fast.  And possibly to folk that have never played the game before.

It would have been easier to just wait until Muse knew how Steam could enable this to happen, and then have emailed the instructions/keys out to those who supported Kickstarter at a tier that provided AM Alpha access.  Mail merge and everyone gets a single unique key.  A nice early reward for backers.

This way is a rather undignified scramble, having to try 20+ posted keys until you find one that's not been taken.
Title: Re: Come test the new build!
Post by: Moo on July 04, 2013, 02:18:46 pm
Yeah, why not post the keys in this thread rather than a public steam group. The keys may even be usable by people who don't have the normal version of the game?
Or, instead of getting steam codes, which can be distributed in ways that aren't wanted, why not get steam inventory/gifts, which whoever could gift via steam to the relevant people. Could possibly be gifted to CAs or whatever to let them help distribute as well.

As said, you don't need to do that anymore:
Join the steam group:
Guns of Icarus Experimental Crew
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/GoIEC
Go to 'Discussions' then to 'Keys to get into the Dev app' then search in the comments to find a valid game key.

...and you'll be on your way

I. Will. Eat. Your. Soul. From. Out. Of. Your. Socks. (Are souls cliche now that Coldcurse has a monopoly on ours?)

EDIT: SHUT UP NO I DID NOT READ THE THREAD! SHUSH! ALL OF YOU!

I think that it might be confusing some people when they go to Steam to get the activation code and they see "You have to me a member of this steam group to... blah blah blah"  It's an easy thing to join the Steam group from right there in Steam, but getting there from this thread might be misleading some people into thinking that they need to request to be added to that group by posting here first.

I know this was my first impulse before realizing the steps I was supposed to take.   ::)

Might be a good idea for a dev or a mod to update the first post and lock this thread.
