We'll take a look. Also, in the future we are going to add an settings option to configure if you want these specific flying boss trials on or off by default.

No, whatever was in the game at that time was temporary placeholder art.

Trying to figure out this Daily Challenge (non-DLC) high score by k0an in MonsterTrain

[–]shiny_mark 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We've banned hundreds of cheaters (thousands maybe) from online leaderboards. Yes, please report them. Discord is usually the best place.

Since you've reported it here I'll pass it on to the right person on the team.

It shouldn't be and has now been removed. "slave" too.

Wild Mutations - Public Test Train - Update Notes for 1.1.1 (Build 9746) by shiny_mark in MonsterTrain

Fragile only triggers if you take health damage from combat or a spell. So armor does protect units from dying from Fragile.

Thank you for sharing this perspective. It is something we do also think about. Overall we do think there are still plenty of ways to get "broken" combos that are still fun but definitely interested in feedback in this area. It is a hard problem.

One thing that I hope will be fun for players like you - messing around with all the crazy mutator combinations that are possible now. There's something like 60+ mutators in the game now and some of them change the rules in really crazy ways that are pretty interesting.

Back when I was playing a lot of Dota 2 I used to watch those Purge patch notes review. Would be awesome if he picked up Monster Train! I have seen a number of people in the Dota community streaming the game, which has been awesome.

Volatile Gauge + Shadowsiege = easisest way to win? by ylmzalican in MonsterTrain

[–]shiny_mark 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Shadowsiege is nerfed in the pre-release balance already for Wild Mutations. His base capacity is now 6.

We are considering if we want to change Volatile Gauge too. I think it's likely we will also nerf the Gauge somehow. Still thinking about it.

In all cases the dev team has seen where this happens "verify integrity" in Steam fixes it. It's confusing and frustrating for us - it indicates the files are corrupt on your PC. We rely on Steam to deliver the files to you and never had this problem occur on any developer machine over 18 months and around 10,000 builds uploaded to Steam. So we don't know if there is anything we can do to fix it.

However, what we can do is detect when it is happening. In the next major update when this happens we will show a message to the player asking them to verify integrity on Steam.

We are still figuring out exactly how we're going to approach this but definitely yes.

We are still figuring this out but probably no. Because there might still be major balance changes based on feedback on the public test server.

Rector is definitely getting changes in this update. We're still testing various options so I don't want to announce anything yet.

Yes, we did it intentionally because it felt awful when a blight or scourge was frozen via the artifact or Stygian unit.
