Cool. Okay. See. All right. I think this stuff is kicking off. I hope. I don't see this. Um I don't see Oh, there it goes. Okay. So, YouTube is live and uh I don't think We'll see about X. Uh, anyway, bucket. I don't care. All right. So, what do we got here? So, I think what we I think Yash Puna mentioned that um he changed contracts. So, maybe we just check test contracts today. Yeah, some notes here. You have enough. But you put
um Halo contract improvements. Vault bots should patrol area. It's just us. Maybe we pick US as the region. Okay. And let's see. So, payload contract improvement. Vault bots should patrol the area. So, maybe we should we should check out the area bots. Ready up state improvements. Implement ready up state waiting for players. New states of matchmaking. Lowering ready flag causes all members of party to unready plan stuff. Ping marker remove improvement. Default foregrip of R90 is not replaced when player equips any other foregrip present in the game. So maybe we should just mess around with the R90 [Music] attachments. Weapon fires automatically after. So a bunch of bug fixes. Yeah. [Music]
Okay. So, just any contract I [Music] guess nothing. Wait, isn't there supposed to be another team with us today or is there no team today? There's not. Oh, I am here. Oh, hey Ashish. Well, I thought like engineer was supposed to join. Yeah, engineering. Maybe not. See R90. Oh, wait. Oh, what? Yeah, I It looks like you rescheduled it
and nobody else is on here. It's just me, you, Josh, and Shila. Shea. Oh, well, it's all right. Did I reschedu it? I don't know what happened. Yeah, I just went on my calendar. I have to accept everything again. Oh, okay. So, okay. Well, maybe tomorrow. Okay. Yeah, I'm going to go to US. Yeah, Josh is probably probably sleeping right now. He was up. We were working till like his 6 or 7 a.m. Dude, Josh is crazy. He is so crazy. Yeah, that can't be that can't be healthy. Yeah, Tun's also crazy. He was
he was messaging me at like his like 3:00 or 4 a.m., too. I was just like, damn, [Music] guys. Yeah, we definitely are lucky. We got some hardcore guys here who really just want to whoop some ass. So, that's great. Yeah. Oh, what the heck? I thought that we were going to keep the accounts. I have a new account. Yeah, we are. Yeah. So, it's staging build. Okay. So, this is a new staging one. Is that right? Yeah, this is this is the new staging build. Okay. Yes. All right. So, then we should start trying to um get more progression off of this build. Okay. So, this is going to be the one that doesn't change starting now. Yeah. Yep. Okay. See if I can get some. Give me something good. Nope. Is this Can you buy
You can still cheat by I can't Oh, you can disable it. Yeah, I can disable it. Okay, can you check the the the timing and the back end for just see if everything's configured properly? Yep, it see I can add you guys. What are your names, Tommy? Mine's just my name. I've sent a text in global chat so you can add me from there. Oh, coming. Yes. Okay. Okay.
I'm still not seeing I'm not seeing you. Uh she you can see me now. I I didn't accept. Yeah, now you can see me. Okay. Okay. All right. Should we test out contracts? Let's see. I need to get an R90 and test out that as well, but payload contract. Can you uh Ash, can you set it to payload contract? Payload contract only. Okay. Yeah, sure. Uh, we'll need to restart the game. Just give me a second.
So, what was that game you were playing again? You mentioned uh schedule one. Schedule one. Okay. Yeah, it's on Steam. It's like 20 bucks. You know, the other game that a lot of people are talking about is that turn-based RPG, uh, Claire Obscura 33 or something like that. I haven't heard of that. Yeah, it's like I guess some French studio, but a lot of people are saying it's really good. Oh, yeah. I've heard that. She let us know when we can restart. Yep. You You can restart now.
I haven't seen this game. It looks cool. [Music] Yeah. If uh if I ever get some free time, I I'll try and check it out. I think it would be cool for us to work on if we can if if Black can be successful for us to work on like a PC game at some point, too. Wouldn't that be pretty cool? I mean, Black itself could be uh I mean, it's also built for PC. Yeah. I think the only thing is like doing a shooter on PC. I think it's so difficult. Yeah. So, I probably want to try and get published and then
um and then basically like maybe have a game like the game after that we try to self-publish. Yeah. Oh man. Usually I just I'm a girl character. I just throw on a costume. But because I didn't have access to any of the costumes, I got a dude and I put a fit on him and he feels so slow just cuz he's a he's a lot bigger. Nice. I think we need uh two teams for payload. I'll I'll leave. We need two teams. Yeah. Yeah, we need two teams for payload. Okay. So, duos. Yes. Are you ready? Yep. Okay.
Ready? Reading up. Yeah, that would be cool to get a new skybox and uh you know, different different things going on because it looks like Las Vegas like you were saying in in the realm. Yeah, I think it's okay for now and then, you know, we can we can still slowly start transitioning out art for better art as uh as the capabilities of our art team improves and as we get um some better concepts in. Yeah. Was there any did I hear that somebody was working on missions or thinking about missions? Um I don't know if anyone's working on it, but we should be working on it. Okay. Yeah, that's something in my goals I put that I uh I want to I want to do missions,
start figuring out what missions we could start with. Yeah, actually if you wanted to jump on it, I I think that's something you should you should jump onto. I We definitely need it. Two one match [Music] start payload. Okay. So, yeah, that's going to be cool to have that uh loading screen with the tips that has like the that info on it. We can have that um load in period too. That 5sec load in period. That would that would help that feel better. Yeah, I'm gonna design that probably tomorrow. It's just like so much it's just crazy like how many how much like random work pops up.
Yeah. Yeah. This is staging build. So you know the account should purchase and the cheat character purchase is disabled. If you guys need it, we can push it otherwise. Okay. Hey Alvin, uh so I guess moving forward we should probably have two builds, right? like or two two devices one one for the stable and one uh to check out new features basically so most probably if there are no backend changes I would be pushing daily builds in staging also so uh if if something is not in daily uh something is not in staging and uh you know something has been pushed on development then I'll push that build okay so for now um whenever the I think it would just be a good practice to delete install and just
play and if you see the same account it's a sting build if you don't see the same account it's a development build got it okay so so generally I uh change my username we don't need two devices one device is fine one device yeah we can just delete install so it will just restore your same account and you can name your username to let's say staging build so you can do jk st means staging like I do st That way I can We lost our watchers. There's only two people watching now. I think we're too boring. Unfortunately, today feels a little low energy too. I think it's also number of players. If if let's say you have full lobby, you know, eight 10 players, there's more action. Yeah. It's more fun. like when we used to broadcast companywide playlist. Uh that used to
be tun. Yeah, I think Tun and Prateique have sleep issues like I do. No, I'm good. I'm good. I'm actually seeing a doctor uh on Wednesday for my sleep issues. Really? Yeah. I'm lucky. I never had sleep issues. I'm the type of guy I could fall asleep on the floor on some rocks in like 30 seconds. I am so jealous. I am so jealous. Maybe it'll catch up to
me. I did notice that I could sleep a lot less um before my trip to India. I don't know why. After my trip to India when I was not sleeping at all and then I got back home, I had to sleep so much more and I haven't gone back since. Oh, they're shooting through the walls. Contract started. Well, that guy just walked through the wall. Oh, you guys are in combat. They're invisible, too. Uh, which map are you guys playing? Ambrose. Ambrose. Oh, okay. We're in US region. Don't shoot. Don't shoot. No. Okay. Okay. Okay. I'll change my region. Yeah. Right now when when I see all this um all these crafting materials, unless it's a stable build, you basically just treat it like trash, right? Yeah.
Let's try collecting it in the field and see how the inventory plays out. What do you guys think about the costumes we have? So especially I don't know this is a style sense but having female costume exactly same for male costume you know there are some tops which are like super female tops and you know male wearing that would that sell or I I think we're a little bit too far on that side where you know I mean like you know I I also support you know whatever LGBTQ but we we kind of went a little bit too far I think. Yeah, like like this, you know, bra kind of top on the guy. Yeah, it's it I think it went a little too far. Like we should have some of that, but it shouldn't be everything. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. We don't have to like have like every costume one to one map to the
Yeah. Wait, what is What is that? What is the Peaches Diner? The red dot. Is that the contract? That's confusing. Oh yeah. What is it? That's the end point of the payload contract. I accidentally teleported. I'm not cheating. That was an accident. Came back. Oh, I can disable teleport in this game. Okay. Yeah, we should disable like um purchasing the currency, too. Oh, okay. Okay. All right. Yeah. in we can disable disconnected from server. Hey, you got the uh you got the zipline hook above your head. The zipline handle. Oh yeah, that but yeah. Okay. Okay. Let's try this payload now.
Cheat. I don't like it. All right. Yeah. Not moving because you're here. All right. Step out. Oh, that's the Okay. Okay. All right. Moving. My My name's still in there even though I'm out. Oh, that's just me cuz me and you are on a team and I started it. I think it should only show the names of the people in the circle. Um, no. Well, this is showing the team who owns it right now. So, okay. Wait. So, what if we what if everybody gets out? Okay, I'm getting out. All right, I'm out. Okay, can you get out, Ashish? Yeah. Well, isn't on our team now? I know. I want to I Yeah, I want to make sure that it still doesn't The names are still there even though we're out. You're out. I know. That's who owns it right now. So, somebody can come and steal it. Like, if he steals it, steal it. Yeah. Let's see if it changes your name.
Changes to your name. Colle. Yep. Okay, there you go. Be careful. Enemies. Feel like it's kind of hard to see. All right. I'm kind of color blind, not even going to lie. But it's hard to see with the zone for me. Yeah. The red color is hard to see. Yes. Okay. It's not just me. And it doesn't move back. It just moves forward. Yeah. Do you think if Oh, I'm getting shot. Do you think if um it's being contested and there's nobody who owns it in there if it should slowly move backwards? That's how it works in like Overwatch and those other I think I think it should move backwards kind of like to just being there is kind of I don't know. What do you guys think? Well, our actually our ours is a little different though because you have to steal it. So in Overwatch and other games like that you don't steal it. So okay, maybe it's okay. Maybe it's okay. Yeah. I mean, it looks like it's looks
like it's working. Guess we got to wait for it to get there. Did cube come in at the right time? Yep. I Yeah, I think so. This is going to land on the cube. What? It's going to pass through the cube. Oh, it is. This is a weird positioning. Well, let's see what happens. Oh, goes through it. I don't think the cube should be near the path. That's just a little bit odd. Yeah, it is a little
odd. This is a weird payload escort thing, too. It's like a wheelbarrow and a a baby with elf ears. Traffic cone that this book completed. You think it should drop loot? I think all contract should drop in-game loot when completed. I think so. As well as the uh you know the postmatch stuff. Right now only uh upload link does that right. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I think all should Let me Let me write that down. You're like you're like completely blended into the uh Oh, yeah. There's no collision in here. Probably should put a collider around it, right? Yeah. There there is a This
is a placeholder asset. So, How do you guys feel about the radio sound effects? To me, I I like them. It looks good. Wait, did you die? Yes, I did. Oh, snap. I'm about to die. Where are you at, JK? I'm down. I'm knocked. Oh, we got a fake an AI team. I can't shoot this guy. He's just jumping through the windows.
Oh, your your hat's on really weird. It's on backwards. Oh, me. Can you take a screenshot? Is that a Oh, yours, too. Oh, yeah. That that hair issue that only h happens in combat. That a yellow color hair for gangster JK. Like I can see five hands or something. Okay. Nobody's chasing me. Oh snap. I'm getting out of here though. Storm's coming. Oh shoot. I'm going to die. Oh no.
I think we're dead. I think we're dead. I think we're Oh no. I got a legendary uh stamina drink. Yeah. No way. No, I got even less health than you. If I can make it, this will be amazing. Yeah, I have no audio. So, I didn't know the storm had started. Oh, no.
No. What a zipline. So, no exit. Exit's right here. Oh, I'm going to die. Oh, yes. You go. No. It's 10 seconds. Dang it. So close. I was in the exit. That sucks. I mean, the storm exits, the notification's pretty obvious. It's just I think we weren't paying attention. Yeah. This is okay. And then we got to check our 90 attachments.
Yeah. Wait, what? I have my ballista from in match. Okay. Well, that's that's a bug. Yep. Yeah. I picked up a bliss and I died with it in my inventory. Now I have it. You only have that gun. Yeah, that's all. I have the ballista, four bandages, and 14 heavy ammo. But I didn't have any bandages or heavy ammo, so I don't know why I have those things. Okay, guess clan works. I sent a clan request. Can you see it? Uh, I joined somebody's clan. The Leela leader. Okay. Yeah. Who is the leader? Coming. I can. Uh, can you can do you
see my request? Yeah. Wait a second. Also view member throws exception. So Aman, what do you think of payload? Should we just leave it as is? Yeah, I mean it's functioning. It's working as uh intended. I think obviously I think we should show the the payload path in mini map in the mini map. Um I didn't even pay attention to what it looked like in the mini map. Yeah. Yeah, I think we can do that. Um yeah, I would say it's functioning as it should. Obviously, we can come up
with a better I mean, I guess the payload itself is placeholder, but it's kind of funny. It's kind of dumb. So, maybe we could keep it. But, uh, obviously better sound effects and VFX. But, yeah. Can Can one of you request something in plan? We have not tested that feature in a long time. Oh, you cannot request or donate a request for 24 hours. Yeah, for 24 hours. Okay, next play. But you are a leader, right? Yeah, I created the clan today because even leader cannot accept uh donate. Okay. Can actually change the
I heard something some murmuring. Who? Who was that? Ash. Yeah, someone. No, that was Ash. Ash. Okay. In plant shop, we get uh XP card. Noty. Okay. How do we earn clan currency? I don't know if there is a way right now. It should be through clan events or uh challenges. Clan missions. Oh, we need to do clan missions. Yep. You know, the the bandages really do look like toilet paper. I I don't I don't know. It's
like they shouldn't they should have just left it bald up or something. I don't know. Uh let's see. What? Why are Why are explorer boots like rubber boots and they decrease fall damage? Yeah, feel free to fix all that. Amen. Yeah, that's a little bit odd.
Okay. Did we make any progress on the shrine? 250 points. Yeah, I think the shrine's a little bit lame right now. Yeah, the donation's actually working. Oh, you didn't donate it? No, but there's an option. There's an option to I don't have the material. I threw that stuff away in combat. Well, now I have something on that material like I don't know what that material is. Maybe a tool tip now that we a tool tip like we have that in shrine like that material which we need to donate. Yeah, but maybe we could because I don't know we might want to change this if it's but I agree like if we are going to keep this we should do that. I just don't know if this is um this makes sense. Yeah, I haven't played Hell Divers. You guys played Hell Divers? Is it fun in Hell Divers?
Recommend event. Yes. Okay. So, in theory, this should be good, right? In theory. H. And how long are we thinking of like the season size? Month. 3 months. Okay. So, shrine basically expires in 3 months. Yeah, it is a little bit long. Currently, it's 2 weeks. Okay. Testing. All right. Oh, and event is for two weeks. Shrine will last for a season. Uh, one season will have multiple events. Yeah, there should be six shrine events. Yeah, leading to 3 months. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Uh, should we fix the timer or do we want to do it? Uh, because currently it is hardcoded a week. Currently, it's all
manually set. So, if you want the sky timer, the sky timer which you see, Thomas just added it. It looks garbage. It looks so janky. Yeah, okay. At least we can connect it to the sign. All right. Should we do another one? Is there another contract? Um, what's another contract, Ashish? What are the other you can set? I can set any contract the in the game. What are the ones? We settled on four, right? So, payload uh care package is going to get worked on, so not that one. Uh boss bot is it is what it is. But, you know, we need a harder boss, but I think it's fine. And then what was the fourth one? I I'll upload link on that. Oh, yeah. The team link. Yeah, team link. Team link. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Do you want to set that
one? We can try that again. But we tested that one last week, right? Yes, we did. Yeah, we can test it again. That's fine. Okay, we might need to restart the game now. Okay. Okay. I think Jess is picking up uh Team Link today. Okay. And I think Josh also has some changes he wants to make for Team Link, too, I think. So, I think he's going to help Team Link. And uh I think he's got some good ideas for the package contract as well. So um yeah. So yeah, I don't know. May maybe it's not worth doing team link now if he's gonna Oh [ __ ] Josh is here. Hey Josh, I'm here. Yash is aware of it all. Me and him discussed it. He like I said, as soon as he starts on it, he already knows what he needs to do. Okay, so for both team link and care package, right? Yes. Okay. So, what what should we test then if anything? Maybe we just try the uh
payload is the only one. That's the only one that's been updated. Yeah, maybe we try payload, but we actually compete for it and we play it as it should be played. Okay. What do we got here? We got one, two, three, four, five, six. Six. So, we go duos. We should also Yeah, we should also squat up so that state button we can test. Uh so do trios duos with us but trios in terms of the mode. We we can we should invite each other so that we can test the button state. Test the button state. Yeah. I hate that eyeball. Is Tun here? Tin, did we Are we getting What are we replacing that eyeball with?
Oh, let me check this. Okay. Apply. So now it should show ready state and let's say if one person cancels uh it should it will just make unready but they don't have to ready up. So earlier like if one person cancels everybody had to ready up again. So now that uh so let's say if JK you cancel. Okay cancel. Yeah. So it became unready for us and if you ready up we don't have to do anything. Yeah. Now my started. Yep. Works. Yeah. I don't see that many. Oh, we went to USA servers, by the way, because uh when we picked the server, it's only JK. That's okay. We are also in US server. Okay. I don't know if Josh knew that or
not. I know. My Wi-Fi is being, you know, the usual. Okay. Slow. So, should we ready up for duos? Yeah, let's let's uh do duos. Okay. Uh, I'll change the device. Confirm. Confirm. Okay. Yeah, let's go. I'm searching. Mish. Okay. Yep. Just give me a second. Yep. Yeah. We four are in same match. Oh, you're taking the back end. Oh, so yeah, we should make sense of
missions. Okay, team link. You said the team link. Yes, I did. Okay. You can change it to uh payload. No. Okay. Next match we'll get payload. [Music] Should we bring back mini maps? Like we removed it because it was too much clutter in lobby. No, it's too empty. It's too empty. Nothing much to do. We can we can actually show uh the spawn location of the players I guess in the mini map area. No, then that will make this like for your team you can see like where you you guys will spawn the initial spawn. M
yes that could make sense. So you can strategize. So we are spawning here. Yeah. [Applause] Yeah, before going live we also need to decide which country will be our main target audience. So JK for the back end um because back end will be in one country like you know everybody for game server we can have we'll have different regions but back end nakama will be hosted in one one region why don't we just do what the urban heat guys are doing assuming assuming the AI is good
we can do India Mexico okay so I was asking where should we host our back end even for global like once Yeah, it is fine. Yeah. Uh generally people do US we can we can actually ask uh Justin also where do these guys put their back end because India might be so it won't impact but let's say you know flaming and all those you know back end queries will be a little slower. So if US is main country actually we should maybe host in US. Okay. Okay, I want to see if I just collect lot of material would I feel I need to upgrade my back. Insight machine used. Why does the insight machine used icon just stay on the Okay,
disappeared. There's a lot of crafting material. Yeah, my backpack is almost full in two houses. Yeah, we boosted the loot. Oh yeah, I boosted. Boost loot means there will be more number of stashes or the same number of stashes with more loot. The stash shield will be the same. The the loot amount there more stash spawn rate and the loot itself inside the stashes will be more abundant. Okay. So, there could be more stashes as well. Yeah. Yeah. So, it's both. Yeah. I mean, how how far did you boost it? Uh, I think 60 second last. Yeah. Okay. It's uh you either got 2x on the weight as
well as the loot tables. That's what you should have got. So, you should have probably doubled pretty much. Wow. I'm just watching JK aiming with the R90. I think we're maybe not that worried about it. The R90. Yeah, literally like uh for three hours me and a like putting down all of
the gun information in a Excel sheet to calculate which is the best gun for the different ranges and we were worried the night is broken. You getting down? Are you down too? Okay. No, no, no, no. I can you come this side because I only have pistol. Oh, somebody ah Who was that? I think that was the real thing. The boss, don't use grenade. Okay, I see. I can actually take your gun probably. What? I'm lagging or something. I just shot Avenous in the face. Or maybe he's just lagging. I might be lagging from you. I I sniped him. blister or spring? Yeah, this is really weird. I'm gaining
XP on the R90 twice. Can you guys see my screen? Yeah, I can see it. See, there's a R90 on top and R90 on bottom. And I get I got different XP for both. Like, what is that like a rarity issue? Did you have two different rarities? No, I don't think so. There's only weapon There's only weapon XP against the gun. There's There's no rarity. Yeah, this is just a bug. This is just a Yeah, cuz you only had a common. Okay, let me see. So, what we were test I have to test what with the
R90 the forge with attachment. Oh, that R90 is not replaced when player equips any other foregrip present in the game. All right. So, you can test that in uh shooting range also. You can go you can use attachment menu. I do not. That's weird. I have some stuff that's not auto. um combining like I had two separate groups of springs. They didn't come together in my inventory and two separate groups of shotgun ammo. I just picked up R90, but I got it. It it leveled up. I just had two shots.
Probably cuz you picked up mine. Yeah. Wait, did you pick up my R90? Cuz I also see it I I see it in the pawn shop. So that's I don't see it in Yeah, I don't see it in pawn shop. But uh Well, yeah, cuz I lost it. You You did lose it. I lost it, right? Yeah. I mean, you did you take it inside the game with you? Yeah. Yeah. Then that's why you you it will show up for you, but not for me. So, it didn't show up for me, but I got XP for So, I Yeah, I Okay. Yeah. So, that is correct. But I'm I got XP. It got to level two for me also. Did you use it? No, I didn't. I I tried to shoot at uh M. I think I landed one shot. So, maybe that leveled up. No, that should be one XP. One shot is one XP, I think. Okay. I might have got
two shots. Oh, we're giving XP based on damage or based on kills. Okay. So maybe R90 shoots multiple bullets. So I think for every bullet we are getting this we change here. It's only on it's only on kills according to what me should be. Yeah. It should be based on kills and assists. You know, when I buy a weapon XP card, purchase. Oops. It doesn't It doesn't show up. Weapon XP card. Yeah, this happened before, I think, where it shows up later. It doesn't show up right away. Yeah, I think you have I think for that you loaded to like back to your house or something before you went to realm again and then it refreshed.
So on that ash, it might be a thing where when you purchase it doesn't refresh the players eventually on on purchase. They have to go and change to like uh like scene have to go back to house or house the realm for it to refresh and eventually. Okay. I also see um R90 in my pawn shop. Should it be the case? The pawn shop's broken. Pawn shop should be The pawn shop should be the items you brought into the match that were lost and not taken. Also, it it started showing up right after you like loaded into realm. It should wait for the match to end. Yeah, exactly. That that was the original design. And it just wasn't before JK was going to redesign the pawn shop though. No, the match is ended actually. Like now nobody's there in the match. I was the
last person. Are you guys still there? I just I just left right now. Yeah, my XP. Where did you buy it from? The daily deal shop. And yeah, Josh, I updated the the pawn shop document. Okay. So, it's still having the same kind of functionality. Is it the same what? The fun same functionality. Yeah. And the original document too, it had like um like community bidding. So, the community can bid on items and stuff. I just decided to remove that for now. Um but yeah, legendary
Make sure All right. Well, looks like we still got a lot of bugs waiting for contracts. Um, I think we should still maybe this
week, uh, Aean and Josh, we could really I think we're close on the timing, but we can maybe finalize the timing as well. Yeah. Yeah. Like I was telling Josh, I think the timing feels good, but there's a lot of features that I cannot make like a final decision on or final call on because we haven't had like full lobby um play with real players, you know. It's only ever only a couple teams. Yeah. Um should should we do a companywide play test? Sure. We used to do once in a week. We could bring that back. Yeah, we can bring it back. Okay. Yeah, let's do it this. So, actually we cancel all hands. So, actually instead of that on Friday, we can do one up. Yeah. Yeah. Sounds good. All right, I'm gonna do it. Kill the stream for Oh, we got a few watchers.
Well, we'll catch you guys later. Sorry today was so boring, guys. All right, let me kill these streams. Upload link. You have everything. Upload link, contact. You have all the design, all the changes.
