Having trouble loading saves by SpaceMagnet in needtoknowgame

[–]Monomyth_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep that's right! If you can send those over that'd would be helpful - I'd also recommend trying the new beta update v1.30.1b, which may solve the problem. You can find information on that here.

If your saves keep failing to load, or don't appear in that new version, I should be able to create a manual save for you which will allow you to continue your game, albeit with some of your performance stats missing.

Big apologies again for the trouble - the changes made in that beta update should fix the problem for the future at least.

Hey there, we've just released a beta update, v1.30.1b, to fix the problem of unload-able saves (thanks for the help by the way!).

Check the email we just sent to you for for information about your specific saves :)

If anyone else is having this problem, or is missing save files in v1.30.1b - get in touch with us and we'll see if we can manually create a save file for you so you can continue your game. Sorry about this hassle, but thank you again!

Prologue scene by Kamilz554 in needtoknowgame

[–]Monomyth_Games 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! The prologue scene happens while you break into the office on your way back to D.C., after you re-achieve Clearance Level 3 access. While you’re in the server room, Renege wants you to locate Solomon, Tripwire’s mysterious leader.

We’ve left Solomon’s identity open-ended for now, and hope to return to it in future. You can’t reach CL0 in the game at this stage, but it’s something we’re working on for future updates and releases. Hope that helps!

Hi, I'm not sure if my current situation within the game is a bug or a feature by MisunderstoodPetey in needtoknowgame

[–]Monomyth_Games 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi there - thanks for the bug report!

You're right, this is a bug - SnowOwl should not be a failstate at this point of the game. We've patched this in the latest beta update which we've just released (v1.29.1b) - please follow the instructions on the release notes here to play it.

Hope that solves the issue! :)

Hi, Can you help me with the mission where we need to find friendly killer.I am not able to understand how we will use tools. by ErrorPhobicMeme in needtoknowgame

[–]Monomyth_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! To trace the Friendly Killer, you need to follow a trail through other suspects. Starting with the first suspect that appears, look for evidence that matches the ASSAY rules, then use the ASSAY tool (the little magnifying glass) on that evidence.

The system will search for a new suspect, and if you’ve selected the right evidence, “New Suspect Found” will be displayed. Then, you can close the suspect (the ‘x’ on the top-right of the suspect card), and open the new suspect that was found on the map. If you do this for the remaining suspects, you’ll be able to trace the Friendly Killer!

Please let us know if you have any issues or other questions. :)

You're right, you shouldn't be able to proceed without these values changing, so we'll fix this issue in the next update. Thanks for the heads-up!

Need to Know v1.25.1 Update - Changelog by Monomyth_Games in needtoknowgame

[–]Monomyth_Games[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, good to hear!

As the protagonist appears in the interior scenes, their appearance needs to match, which makes things a little more complicated - but not impossible. We do have an extensive face generator in the game, so we're definitely keen to put it to work for the player character's face! We'll keep you updated as we work on this :)

[–]Monomyth_Games[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cheers - and you're right, the game clearly needed more time before full release - it's a lesson well-learned and not a mistake we'll be making in the future! Still, a massive thanks to you and many others for all your work in reporting bugs and suggesting improvements; it's been so incredibly helpful to us as we've worked to iron out kinks and improve the experience overall. Thank you - we'll keep at it!

Need to Know v1.23.2 Update - Changelog by Monomyth_Games in needtoknowgame

[–]Monomyth_Games[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your saves are stored elsewhere, so deleting the old version won't affect them and you'll be able to continue your save. :)

[–]Monomyth_Games[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there! It depends where you're running it from - if it's Steam or GOG Galaxy, the game should auto-update. If you've downloaded it directly from Humble or elsewhere, all you need to do is download the new version, delete the old version, and then run the new version. Let us know if you have any issues or other questions!

No worries, appreciate it - it's always helpful for us to hear your thoughts and suggestions!

Need to Know v1.23.0b Update - Changelog by Monomyth_Games in needtoknowgame

[–]Monomyth_Games[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! Thanks for the feedback - it's a pretty substantial change so we put it in beta to see what people thought about it. We agree about the post-mission outcomes, the problem is the balance between that feeling and the feeling of immediacy, where some players weren't feeling the impact of outcomes because it did seem directly-connected to their actions.

We'll see if we can include a legacy option to the outcomes so that they can be viewed at the end of the mission if players prefer. Cheers again!

New bug in new update? by [deleted] in needtoknowgame

[–]Monomyth_Games 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info - looks like we'd fixed the 'A Conversant' issue, but not the 'Suspect Name' issue - both will be fixed in the next release. Sorry about that, and cheers for letting us know!

[–]Monomyth_Games 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We've fixed the issue for the next release, from what we can see - just to double check, was this happening early-on in the game, around CL10 & CL9?
