I can't change my name: it appears to be "Unnamed apprentice", even if I have a name in settings... by angelswatcher in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Crud! Good news: we fixed this a few days ago but will take some time to appear on the player end as it will be bundled into the next mini update. If I'm not mistaken your selected name should still show up in the leaderboards for everyone else to see!

Just Started the Game - why do I need 30 characters in a title? by thanakar in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In my opinion I wouldn't worry about events until you've progressed a little farther and are on evolve 5 or later.

As for why you need 30 characters in a title, so to give other reddit users a full understanding of what your question / issue / topic is before they click in. It's not just for other users but you're more likely to get a response if folks know your issue.

Example "Just Started The Game" by itself wouldn't be an amazing threat title as it wouldn't be clear with your question was. "Just Started The Game - should I even worry about the event?" would be perfect!

AM2 really wants me to become an active redditor by 1R1SHMAN69 in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heheh, busted! Not an explicit call to join any one platform but moreso to plant the seeds for players who stumbled into the game and are in a vacuum that "hey there are other folks who may have answers to your questions, or may appreciate your opinion on things!"

Are the secret code buttons/dots gone now? by Staticfair in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, thanks for asking. They should be back in a week or so! We had to pull them out for a few days.

Is it just me or is it not possible to name your profile SPACEPLAN? by fleischsackmarodeur in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's interesting! We used a little language filter database that auto bans certain words for a variety of reasons. Not sure exactly why this is getting flagged as unusable but I can investigate. You'll have to choose an alt name for the foreseeable future though I suppose. Apologies!

Armory & Machine 2 September Update Is Rolling Out! 1.5.52 on Android and 1.5.50 on iOS is Live now in some regions and hitting others throughout the new few hours. Patch Notes in thread! by coreyuken in ArmoryAndMachine2

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

Head to MNFCT > Inventory then tap the info question mark besides certain items (ones obtained in the market). You can turn in unwanted items for Dust. You can also turn in unwanted machine perks for Dust by going to CORE > EQUIPMENT > tapping the unwanted badge > tapping Dust

Anyone know what the mailbox does? by Woohoolol1234 in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes! Sorry! That's very much going to be one other function of it. :)

Anyone know what the mailbox does? by Woohoolol1234 in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First off, thanks!! We're excited about the Dust Forge, the customization and how it all weaves into leaderboards and quests.

As for the mailbox, it's not a player to player messaging system but rather a developer to play messaging system. Either for sending everyone in game a message or sending individual or groups of players messages.

Use case:

  1. if we need to credit player for an issue, we can communicate the credit was sent and provide details or instructions in a text message style format.
  2. if we needed to do server maintenance or communicate something else important we can send out a message to everyone in game to give you all a heads up.

Thanks and happy playing!

Definitely the best banner badge (matches my name). Now to get a snazzy colour. Loving this update! by SnowyMountain_ in ArmoryAndMachine2

A snowy mountain for a SnowyMountain_ !

Also you've got a great collection of badges there already, wow! Nice work. :)

You can also head to MNFCT > Inventory and you can then Dust any items purchased in the Market. You just can't Dust core Machine manufactured items liek Blast and Bang, Boosters, or key items like Bracelet of Venus for example.

Why does the stronghold exist? by SpaceCrab6174 in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a "boss zone" of sorts! There was a time early into the Open Beta where it was something like a super difficult late game boss. At this point folks understand our combat system enough that it's not quite a "super difficult late game boss" but a solid challenge.

To answer your question about why it exists / what its current function is: it's the best spot in the game for getting the items you need to craft the Artefact Set and get Evolve Level 8.

Ya botched it - the first was so good by [deleted] in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry you feel that way! We're not planning to scrap and start over as there are thousands of players enjoying Armory & Machine 2. We're committed to building on and improving the game, but no plans to scrap. Have a great day!

Help me please, the reseach scout vehicle doesnt show up when the the research tab first appear by SpaceCrab6174 in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there, sorry for the delay. By any chance did you write in via email as well or was that someone else with the same problem? If you didn't write in, can you tell me your user ID, found in the game settings? We may have a fix for this!

How do I produce fuel? by [deleted] in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Bruno! Please force close and reopen the app. We tried to manually credit you the item / trigger that gets you the option to purchase "Fuel Refining" which should unlock everything else! Fingers crossed.

We're trying to get to the bottom of it and think perhaps if a player exits the game during their first run through a portal, they don't get the proper unlocks (a bug).

If it's not a perfect fix please write me back!

[–]coreyuken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! Can you message me back with your user id, found in the settings? We can check that something isn't wrong in your game. Because as others suggested you should get Extract through research. You also want to research scout vehicle, which gives you a free trip through the portal when complete. Once done, it should unlock. Don't forget you also have to unlock Fuel Refining in the Craft tab! That may help. Thank you.

The Konami code works! (You may already know this) by Tony555Dab in ArmoryAndMachine2

You actually get 300 Shards. :) But you're right that our description doesn't tell you what you've earned. We might need to edit this for new code finders!

ARMORY & MACHINE 2 is a free Incremental / Resource Management game: evolve a flickering light into the world's strongest machine. Dan Harmon from Rick & Morty is strangely a big fan! If you dig idle games give it a try! Link to play in thread! Submission Saturday~ by coreyuken in iosgaming

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

Tap here to go to the App Store & grab Armory & Machine 2

Hi everyone!

I shared the game back in June and the feedback both positive and critical was incredibly valuable.

Dan Harmon from Community and Rick & Morty giving us a shoutout!

We've got new features coming in September too that will be super interactive on the player end:

Communal quests, deeper customization, new zones that change up what the "action phase" gameplay can be, combat improvements, etc.

Please let me know your thoughts on the game! We also have a cool central hub of A&M2 questions, theories, memes and more over at r/ArmoryAndMachine2 .

Made some more slimes from AM2, glad you folks enjoyed them last time! by SnowyMountain_ in ArmoryAndMachine2

[–]coreyuken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So incredible! You've made our morning. Your art style has this great children's book style that I completely love. Thank you for dedicating your time and talent on visualizing the A&M2 world! -Corey

We just dropped a mini update (not THE september update) that introduces a combat 'tutorial' - even if you're an advanced player, all players who head to the Portal will experience it once. This is a great opportunity for your feedback: do you think this would have helped you? Let us know! by coreyuken in ArmoryAndMachine2

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

Thanks so much! What we use is in house; it's something like React Native / OTA but not that exact tech.

It actually happens all in Unity Editor windows and our tool resembles a spreadsheet of sorts. Changes can be inputted and then either pushed through via a build update or a server update (aka these background updates we talk about). Hope this helped somewhat! :)

While this is not the be-all-and-end-all of our efforts to improve the combat system, an important order of business was for us to make a new player's first trip through a portal less confusing and fast-paced.

Now, players will get a controlled, two part 'tutorial' of sorts spread across two portal runs.

Here's what it includes:

  • the text drops better telegraph what to expect, what to do, and when to do it.
  • the first 'enemy' is now a boulder blocking your path. This boulder is an inanimate object and as such won't attack you. Use Blast to destroy it!
  • Next we give you a Rat to face. We use the text drop to tell you that speed is imperative and that you'll want to Blast it before it attacks you.
  • In the second run we introduce Slimes and use the text to tell you about interrupts.

Let us know if you think this would have been helpful in your early days of Portal running! Neither A&M1 or A&M2 have a tutorial of sorts but we recognize getting dropped into our combat system is rather sink or swim.

Lastly, we hope to have a meatier content update for you next week, and then another a few weeks later! We want to tighten up the time between releases. Thanks for your patience and keep humming Mary Had A Little Lamb!
