Hello guys,

I'll post here the general info about reaction, as I explained in the discord server a while ago:

- Reaction is kind of an invisible meter which AI has. When it fills up, the character launches a hit animation, so he stops shooting for a while and then this meter restarts.

- Each weapon causes a different base reaction.

- Players don't react

- Talents which increase reaction make the meter fill faster.

Your ELO keeps increasing as long as you win matches, and drops if you lose. Match difficulty depends on every player ELO

You can't build weapons until you buy the game, but you have the blueprint althought that menu does not show it. If you find the blueprint again you will see you can't select it

That's intended and happens to every characters from Umbra Wardogs faction. On the other hand, Alicia is always regenerating health, which with other characters only happens with an empty Aleph meter.

Hi!

If you got a key for previous betas, they will still work for you. However, there is no beta session this weekend. Stay tuned for future sessions

Hi everyone!

It has been a pleasure to be part of this awesome beta. I will give my opinion in several fields of the game development, and then will write about what I liked the most and the least.

Art
Beautiful. I didn't play on ultra settings, but still character textures and animations looked really good. The same with the scenario. People playing with me noticed that both female characters have the same animation, but it's more than understandable in this development stage.

Music/Sound
Really good, too. I specially liked the audio feedback when you hit and kill an enemy, pretty accurate.

Video performance
I played with an Nvidia GTX670 and played smoothly. Didn't have any problem with my card.

The game itself
I found it original enough. I love cooperative games, but this game made me love even more been the frustrating antagonist.

Thinkgs I enjoyed the most
- Reward system. I liked the voting and sharing thing. I am not sure about weapons, but for exp and money it definitely works.
- Being the antagonist.
- The art.

Things I enjoyed the least
- Ammo recovering system. Specially fighting the boss you can literaly do nothing until more AI enemies appear.
- Insta-killing grabs.
- Players can recover lives indefinitely.

Things I would think about
- Skipping cinematics (during the whole beta I kept on 4/5 - 3/4 skip votes). I understand the map has to be loaded and the cinematics are great, but thinking of loyal and constand players, it will be boring and even frustrating, as it seems that some people never skips the cutscene although they have already seen it. Some random ideas: Don't need every positive vote to skip the scene, show only if there is a new player who has never seen it, a chat to encourage the last person to skip the cutscene (if a chat is on future plans).

- In my opinion, Shae is totally OP. I don't consider myself a bad player, but I am not as good as I seemed playing with her, finishing the whole team several times as antagonist. It's really easy to insta-kill any player who is not aware of your precense, and that's now hard considering Shae is not regulary seen through walls.

- I loved Alicia's jumping skills, but the beta scenario is not suitable for it. It just does not have the shape. I would think about this for future scenarios.

- This is not a priority but I think designing a good tutorial is important in this game, as the mele system and character skills have some "tricks" that may give you a great combat advantage.

- Adding a way of playing with your friends.

- A way of communicating with your team. If not a chat, at least some default sentences to give basic orders.


I hope you find this post useful. See you on the next beta!
