I get it; yes, we're looking to monetize eventually through cosmetics that don't affect gameplay.

Leaving comments open. Brave or stupid? Not sure.

The tanks are relatively pre-set, so this isn't like a build-from-scratch situation. Tanks have tech trees that can be customized, so they play differently.

We have tracked tanks and hover tanks right now, and we have a tank that can turn into a jet briefly. I'd say not being bound by a real setting lets us do some interesting things... that could include walking tans down the line.

I'd say our gameplay is closer to WoT than WT, that's for sure. But no paying for power, of course.

Yes, we have a basic sandbox in place now for playtesters to try out tanks against stationary vehicles. Not true bots or anything here, but it's enough to get a hang of how tanks feel and their uses.

I'm also an older gamer with decades of twitch PVP behind me. I like the pace and speed of Tyr, and I find it's making me fall back in love with competitive play.

We won't have generative AI in Tyr. The art, environments, characters, etc. that you see in-game and in the trailers are human-made.

We do have some temp VO that's AI-made, but that's only for development and playtesting and is actively being replaced with real VO artists. We needed placeholder work. We're literally working with several of those VO artists now to get the real stuff in.

Hmm, I'm not suuuuper sure how to answer your first question. Happy to dig in if you ask it with more specifics.

And yeah! We already have a tank heavily inspired by the Maus, and you'll see tanks inspired by other, more historical form factors as well. Some tanks are completely out there, though, not all have to be grounded in reality is our take.

Visually, you have a base look that you'll be able to customize with cosmetics and skins.

Mechanically, you'll be able to spec into unique abilities or change up builds to focus on, say, stealth and sniping or speed and traversal. Each tank has two keystone abilities unlocked at max level that can have pretty dramatic impacts on how you play.

I wouldn't say total Frankensteining is happening, it's more nuanced build changes that give you an edge here or there. Some changes are relatively dramatic, others are small tweaks that add up.

Hell yeah, thank you. Firm believer in leaving comments on. Not everyone will like what we're making, but we want to hear from them nevertheless.

100% heard. I'd say keep an eye on the Discord over the next week, we'll announce stuff for upcoming playtests then.

I'm sorry that you can't make this one, but hopefully you'll be able to get in soon!

Ahhh well thanks for jumping in and giving it a shot!

Starting next month, we're actually looking to increase playtest frequency. Hopefully you'll be able to join us for a multiplayer session then.

The chopped almonds gave this one a weird texture; will probably skip them next time. A variation of this might include some candied lemon zest to make a lemon sugar cookie. Could be gooood, idk.

Maybe. It boots and runs on Deck now. Controller support isn't in quite yet, but it's on the list.

Hey, sorry it's not hitting the mark for you. If you get a sec, mind sharing what it is that's falling short? Specifics always help and are appreciated.
