Alpha Update 2022-23-12
2022-12-23
Hi fellow Thang’ers,
We are about to fire up the servers for public use for the first time.
It’s been a joyful ride for us the last year and a half bringing the game on par, and beyond other Thang versions out there.
When you are going to play, run your Launcher in administrator mode (we will add the required certificate later for the prompt you see right now)
For the Alpha specific, we would like to achieve the following:
Learn more about:
- Game Stability: Server load & how this impacts performance (this will determine how many servers we will launch with and where)
- Gaming Experience: How does it feel? Play around with the different resolutions (also check out the higher ones) and tell us how it goes Play solo, in parties, do bosses
- Bugs, bugs & bugs: Whenever your client crashes, there is an auto bug tool that captures the bug. Ensure to press ‘Send’ and it will be send to us automatically and we can look into it We seek your guidance with the dien/item/ring ghosting bug. Show us how it’s done (video recording) and we’ll provide the first one with a Lune bounty reward (note: we won’t launch the game until these have been tackled)
- Anything else
All Alpha feedback & findings can be submitted in the Discord ‘alpha-feedback’ channel:
Discord Alpha Feedback Channel
We’ll be increasing your character level over the course of the Alpha in game (including to the Door of Treasure 5 levels) and provide you with gear if necessary. This means, don’t allocate great amounts of time on leveling and grinding your way up. Additionally we’ll be handing out free Lune and Dien (don’t get used to it) so you have a comfortable ride along the way.
Alongside these Alpha learnings, we want to HEAR from you regarding character, monster and item balancing. Let us know your thoughts in the respective ‘Balancing channels’. Many people reached out to us but we want you to also have an open discussion with each other.
Make sure to join our Discord
See you in game!
