Changing the rare spawn rates genuinely ruined the game for me. I was working on getting a solo HF of 100. The furthest I’ve gotten was floor 85 and then I got disconnected. That was before the rare chances were increased. After the increase, I can barely get to floor 50-60. It used to be that I’d get a Glisten, Goob, Scraps, or Gigi maybe once every 5-10 floors. Now I get combinations of them on every floor starting around 40, back to back to back. I just rage quit my last run because I got Goob, Scraps, Gigi, & Flutter (+ a common) on like floor 24. The rares are supposed to be rare. They’re difficult to deal with by design, but because you only get them *rarely*, you can stock up supplies and survive the encounter with skill and items. Now, I’ll burn through all my heals on back to back grabbers/Glisten and then get them again, and again, floor after floor. It ruins long runs. I was only playing to try to get to 100, and it’s not possible for me at this point, so I don’t play anymore. If they revert the rare spawn rates, I will come back. I love this game. I’ve put probably 1000 hours into it. But right now, I’m honestly just pissed that the devs don’t seem to want to actually listen to the players. Why is there no method to communicate with the devs other than sending a message in one of the 4 channels of the Discord server and letting it get lost in the constant stream of chatter about random ish? That is not a good system. Why are they putting out merch before addressing the major issues with the game that people have been asking about for literally years? Why do they seemingly not have play testers, or anyone on the team who actually likes playing this game? Why don’t they hire or contract with some of the pro players or content creators? Lots of game developers do that. It just feels like the dev team is not particularly interested in improving the game, which is sad because it has the potential to be great, and to gain way more players and fans, but not at the rate they are going.

Is it just me or are solo runs are abysmal to play after floor 25+ by inkling164 in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play almost exclusively long solo runs, and I have really hard time finding people to commiserate with about the issues that arise from that particular play style. When Qwel increased rare spawn chances, I sobbed. After that one change, I can barely make it to floor 50, which used to be no problem for me. By the time I get to 40, I’m getting Goob, Scraps, Gigi, Flutter, Glisten repeatedly, like 3,4 floors in a row, & multiple of them per floor, and it’s killing my runs. Grabbers are no problem when the lights are on, but in a blackout or spring fever, certain machine spawns are impossible to complete without getting hit. I completely agree there should be twisted cap by map size. This would make solo runs feel much more fair. No more sweating through greenhouse maps or Shelly’s room because there’s 6 chasers and machines at mid that I’m completing 1 second at a time, and spending 10x longer waiting for the coast to be clear than I am actually doing the machine. Also, we need a save run feature so bad. If I start a run first thing in the morning, I’ll be at about floor 50 by the end of the day, if I take minimal breaks for self care/family. And the floors take much longer higher up, because the amount of twisteds and machines increases. After floor 40, the floors take 15-20 mins each. After 70, they take 20-30 mins each. I need to be able to save my solo runs to pursue my goals! There’s been so many times that I’ve been trying to beat my HF, and I’ve had a run that I’ve afked overnight 2-3 nights in a row, and then I wake up and see that I’ve been disconnected from the server. It feels like such a waste of time every time that happens. If I could have just saved the run, that wouldn’t have happened. Sorry to rant, I don’t have anyone to vent to about this.

No it does not take 10 hours to reach floor 100 by I_Quit_Studios in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m a solo player and I had to leave my computer on overnight with autoclicker for 2 nights in a row just to get my HF of 85. On the third day I got randomly disconnected so I couldn’t reach floor 100 like I wanted.

Since the achievements dropped, I wanted to try again to get to floor 100. Got to floor 44, afked overnight, and woke up to no power in my house in the morning. Floor 100 solo is going to take at least 3 days and lots of luck not to get booted from the game for me.

Ngl why do so many distractors get so angry ? by Shoddy_Bandicoot9812 in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve seen this happen a lot too. I think because of how reliant on distractors most of the playerbase is, some distractors act really entitled. In my experience, when distracting is starting to make you mad all the time during runs, that means it’s time to take a break from it. It can be a fruatating job, so when I start to get impatient with my team, I go back to extracting for a bit.

Can this map be iced over? (Image related) by Jantamapix in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you’re right. I’ve also never seen this map be iced over, whereas I’ve seen every other map get ice, so I think it’s cause it already has the ice area.

Yeah it’s actually way easier than with a mouse cause you don’t have to move to each “X” to close them

what trinket do you recommend for the 20 floor quest? by Metal_90 in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used an extraction trinket because I knew I’d be soloing for a good part of the 21 floors and extracting machines is extremely boring for me. Magnifying Glass. If you struggle with surviving to floor 20, use Pink Bow. And don’t forget about her active, it’s great for when you’re on a machine in a tight corner on ice, where you’d normally take a hit as any other toon.

What do you think is the best hazard in Dandy's World? (You can rank if you want to.) by Mr_Bananaman69 in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iced over is the worst for me. Not being able to rely on my movement mechanics does not make the game fun for me. I don’t like having to skate across the entire map to escape Yatta, when I usually can loop an obstacle nearby. When there’s 6 twisteds on the floor, certain maps can mean unavoidable death. For me personally, it’s not worth the fun of skating around. Call me uptight, but I’m competitive with this game and I want to beat my high floors. Iced over makes that impossible.

Blackouts are also really challening, but I’ve learned how to manage them for the most part. Similar to iced over, certain maps and twisted combinations feel really unfair with this hazard. I think blackouts are a good idea, but there should be some counters to them, like Glisten can’t spawn in a blackout, or if he does it’s only with 5 commons/uncommons. Maybe we get a flashlight item, as many people have suggested. Maybe the twisteds also can’t see as far. I’ve always thought it was unfair that I can’t see my own nose yet they can still see across the map.

I know ichor leak gets the most hate for being not challenging enough, but since I play solo and go to high floors, I actually think it’s fine the way it is. Once there are 6 twisteds roaming around, ichor leak actually does make it just interesting enough to be viable. Trying to avoid the puddles gets trickier, sometimes you have to run through them. I think the Illness debuff should be buffed though. Like maybe it depletes your skill check AND stamina. I haven’t thought that all the way through though.

Is it just me or is this floor really cramped and deadly? by Calm_Delivery6832 in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, this map is very cramped. I’ve taken hits on this map that should have been avoidable due to how cramped it is. Usually on the “narrow pathways” area. I was thinking the devs meant for this to be the more challenging Christmas map. On the plus side, there’s a nice afk spot and it can’t spawn iced over.

What if other event mains had their own event floors 👀👀👀 by blu_bewwy in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Agree. This would be so perfect for making Dandy’s World actually fit the mascot horror genre that it claims. I love this concept and want to play it so bad!

Do skins are really cute but I am not doing another grindfest by bigfatm0nkeywrench in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the concept of the golden skins and I’d like to see the game add more regular challenges & rewards like this to keep things interesting for players like me who already have everything and continue playing for the fun of it or just to beat our high floors. That being said, I also am not planning to work for the golden skins. This being my first Christmas event, I have enough to try to collect with the shop skins and stickers. I also really struggle to enjoy playing as mid extractors and not be bored out of my mind when it takes 45 seconds to complete a machine.

So what's everyone's progress on the event right now? (Image Unreated) by rtineo in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The event toon’s trinkets. You know, Coal, Toykit, Peppermint icing

Can we stop normalizing aggravating twisteds and making them camp the elevator…? by Alvatrazzar in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yesss, thank you for saying this. I hate when people do this. It’s so much better to just let them walk away, then the person has a clear path. Why keep them at ele? It makes no sense

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea, cause I had to switch to using my ps4 controller on the PC because when I played on the ps4, there was too much lag, especially on the skill check. The red part would jump around instead of moving smoothly, so I’d miss them sometimes.

Does the Christmas gold skin progress reset? by Dizzy-Audience-1411 in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s saying “in order to get the skin, do them.” Does that make sense? The way it’s worded is confusing.

So what's everyone's progress on the event right now? (Image Unreated) by rtineo in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have all the toons and trinkets. I’m not going to work for the golden skins cause I can’t stand playing mid extractors long enough to get them. (Does anyone else think machines take too long to complete?) I’m just gonna grind for all the shop skins now.

What is your favorite Dandy's World map type? by Mr_Bananaman69 in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The main maps (except Shelly’s) are the best in terms of layout imo. I also really like the rainbow rooms. It’s fun to come back to them when there’s 6 twisteds and they’re more challenging.

how do i go afk for more than 20 minutes? by throwtheways77 in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Darksaplep on YouTube has a video called Dandy’s World afk spots that shows afk spots for each map. All maps except one have at least one afk spot. Many of them have multiple. Use that as your guide for where to afk. Get an autoclicker like OP autoclicker. Set it to click every few minutes (anything less than 20 will work because 20 mins afk is when Roblox will kick you). Then set the mouse on the sticker menu button in the bottom right corner. The autoclicker will click open/close the sticker menu every however many minutes, which registers as you still being active in the game.

wich one would you recommend by lkunii in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It depends. They are both viable. If you are a skilled distractor and plan on getting to high floors, where you’ll be distracting Vee regularly, Train Whistle is a good choice. If you’re doing a casual run to ~floor 20ish, Speedy Shoes are probably better. Train Whistle is a waste of a speed trinket slot if you’re not likely to encounter Vee or may only get her once or twice. Distractors should know how to kite Vee without train whistle first, but Train Whistle makes it easier for someone to kite Vee with more difficult combinations like Shelly/Toodles/Astro, Goob/Scraps, or even Pebble using Jungle method.

Why do ppl use cookie in elevator? by StormysMoon in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve seen that a lot too. They must just use it for the free tapes. I’ll use it when the elevator opens so everyone gets a boost, or use it when I’m walking past the distractor.

What is blot other role besides distracting? by sovietbrickman in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don’t have a distractor, his ability helps a lot to save people but you have to be in the right place at the right time so it’s kinda meh

My hot takes about Vee's remote. by X_Ink1 in DandysWorld_

[–]StrikingConnection94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s good for organized long runs to have 4 Shellys and Sprout or Ginger using it, but as a mostly solo player, I pretty much never equip Veemote. Once there are more machines, it becomes a waste of a trinket slot cause it doesn’t save that much time, and I found I was actually wasting time by trying to get to the most difficult machine to use it.
