Warrior's Den February 22nd
No info dump from Eric yet, I will post it if there is one, I just wanted to open this thread to questions to pin up top.
As to future Dens, if there is no one else to do it (and I will assume so unless I know before wednesday 7 UTC 2 Eastern, so around this time), I run on a rolling shift pattern,I am off work every other thursday. Those thursdays I am off obviously I can do the recap on the day, thursdays I am at work, I am going to need to post the link to the reddit recap if I see one before I go to work and then watch the Den come saturday afternoon to put up a full one. It isn't perfect and if there is anyone who can do it every week on time I will happily leave it to them, but generally I am getting ready for work at the time the Den is on and I rarely turn on my xbox in the middle of a few nights on shift, especially three as it is in my wednesday to friday pattern, let alone have the energy to write about gaming lol.
Community questions from the forum
Ngallo22: Can the zone attack have its own dedicated button? Maybe R3?
I do not think many of us feel 100% confident throwing it out, which is an issue because we should feel 100% confident that a button will do its job.
I know the "camera center" is R3 but i do not think many people use it. A button reconfiguration option would be useful with the option to make R3 a zone attack.
Ngallo22: Change the "map vote" to also act as the "ready" button and remove the "ready" button, so selecting a map will also mean the player is ready.
Not enough people choose a map, possibly they don't have the time to choose since they are deploying or changing gear.
Soldier of Dawn: Could it be made possible to combine two( or more) effects on the same execution, idle, and emote slot in the future?
Charmzzz: Question: Which Heroes are next for Reworks / Major Tweaks?
ChampionRuby50g: When we vote for a map, can it be possible to change our map vote? I accidentally vote the wrong map sometimes, and it’s sucks that I can’t fix my vote to my preferred choice.
Waynedetta4k: 1, Now that Guard Break after Parry isnt a thing anymore. Will there be changes to Guardbreak so it could be more than a counter to dodges. I mean making it more useful/harder to CGB?
2, I heard about the Arena Mode, any new Information about that, I would like to know how it will work, like a winner stands mode? Iam waiting for that a year now!
3, Whats the general Idea for the future in regards of making recovery times slower and attacks faster?
Takuram: Would it be possible to make the "Extended Region" on the South American region to match with the whole American Continent?
Our playerbase is too small, and our ping with north americans is ok ( I'm able to play everyday with them - by entering a foreign party - with no issues ).
Brutal DaDo: 1) is there a chance to get tozen’s kick for orochi? 2) after all the reworks for the OG characters is there a chance to get a punch or maybe a knee to the stomach for berserker as an opener ?
Recap
Preshow music is on, do this, let's \m/<(-_-)>\m/
And we, are, live.
Apollyon took away my rock Den theme, wait until I get into test your metal next.
Test your metal trailer!
Test your metal is the most played event mode.
Going to be a shorter one than last week, they do have new stuff to talk about though.
News of the week.
Today, live update, this enabled version 2 of test your metal and it fixed the conqueror infinite exploit.
Dedicated servers dropped PC last monday.
They refreshed us on what they revealed last week about the Apollyon's Legacy event.
Anyone grinding event gear, there is a list on reddit. The Apollyon gear items are named after metal music.
Dedicated servers, the first numbers show that overall stability has had very high levels of improvement, apparently better that the open test. (Forum posts would tend to go against that but people are rarely as loud when they are happy). Small improvements such as no resynchs.
One thing they are seeing is that the improvement on dominion is not on par with the other game modes, they are looking into that. It is more a bug on the game side rather than the servers.
The zombie sessions bug in dominion is something they have actively worked on. Those sessions are being put in quarantine when the game identifies them after the maintenance so they can't spread like a virus as they were before,it used to be the session did not die,people would quit and more would be sucked in in mid game flow.
They are also working on memory leak. Support tickets help with this.
Apollyon's Legacy Week 2
Opponents increase in difficulty and it is now best of 7. Week 2's emblem is also now unlocked. First round is still pretty accessible. The bosses have new abilities and they have another step of increased difficulty as well as a steeper difficulty curve.
Extra loot fest this weekend, starts 23rd and lasts three days.
Bend the knee order, kill as many followers of Apollyon as you can.
Weekly content is the bundle,this is available until 12th march, 25,000 dynamic price (goes down with unlocks) steel. Also two new emotes, Down the Hatch and Rub Salt into the wound. These are emotes with effects, normal price is 10,000, they are 7000 this week. They will always be available to be bought.
Community corner already, so unless they have a Q&A after or during this was pretty short, will listen out during to see what is revealed.
They spoke about dedicated servers on console. As they told us, they released to PC so they can see what is going on and they can push changes through quickly. Things are going pretty well currently so they will come sooner rather than later. They have no ETA yet though they might next week, they are talking about weeks, not months.
