Hey there! Thank you for the write up u/PM_ME_INTERNET_SCAMS. I appreciate you taking the time to voice your concerns on this topic. I understand the frustrations regarding AFK players in your game.. we all do and It's not a great experience.. at all.

I can tell you right now that there is no mention of AFK on the roadmap. However, we are implementing a better tracking system which will help us evaluate the system in it's current state. It's going to take a little more time after this new system is implemented so we can check the overall scale across the entire game and not just what players on a specific social platform are saying. We know it's an issue, we know it's a wide scale problem, and it's not something ...

I found an interesting bug with a specific emote. While having the "Mech Team Leader" skin equipped in BR, the attached "Turbocharged" emote shows up in my StW wheel. However, selecting it from the wheel and attempting to use it does absolutely nothing at all. Can't describe the excitement and instant disappointment I felt when not triumphantly electro-punching the air! xD

I know it showing up at all may have been unintended, but if skins with attached emotes are something you're planning more of for BR it would be pretty neat to make them work in StW. u/Magyst

Thanks for reporting this, I'll make sure a bug gets added to handle that. Unfortunately, that emote only works with that Outfit, so since we don't have Outfits in StW yet, it doesn't work and shouldn't be in the emote wheel. Once you're able to equip Outfits in StW, the emote should in fact come with it.

Hey guys, have a quick update about Storm Shield edit permissions:

In the 10.0 update, Storm Shield edit permissions were changed to be on by default. We've rolled out a temporary fix to change this back and always default edit permissions off every time any player visits your storm shield. With the release of 10.10 we will do a one time clear of all stored edit permissions to be sure no one was inadvertently added to your permissions list. After the permissions clear, you will have to re-add friends to your permissions list in order to give them edit permissions. Once these changes are in place, permissions will behave like they did before 10.0.

Stay awesome Community!

Played a like a politician. Put out message late on Friday so you don't have to respond to comments and people forget about it by Monday, lol. Hope it actually has something good in it as my love for the game, like many others, is just about gone.

That's actually not the case. We've set the cadence for releasing those conversation pieces on Friday, right before the weekend. This allows more visibility on the message as more players will be online and interacting with the post. We always have eyes on the posts we make.. regardless of if it's the weekend.. Holiday.. apocalypse.. whatever the case.

When can we even expect part 2? It took more than a year to implement locker part 1, so is another year for locker part 2 reasonable?

We're aiming to have all cosmetic options available by the end of SX.. with some potentially slipping into early S11 depending on any bugs we discover during testing. So far, everything is looking great.

The second blog will land before the second part of the locker is complete.

Comment

Hey everyone, please keep in mind that the locker system is brand new and we're still making adjustments to it as highlighted in our Locker Blog. We'll be adding more options to it as SX pushes forward. With this, brings more discussion for cosmetic opportunities.

We'll have a part 2 of the locker blog coming in the future that highlights additional features we're adding.

Hey there! As highlighted in this comment, I'll be putting up a new roadmap on Friday. This will highlight some of the things we have coming over the next few updates, along with some details on the reward changes coming to higher end Twine. v10.20 will bring in a new narrative and weapon set.

Hey everyone! Keep in mind this is just a content update, which are typically smaller as they are not patches. I'll be putting out a roadmap this week (Friday) giving you a sneak peak at what we have coming for the next few updates. Patch v10.20 will have the new narrative and weapon set. Stay tuned for the roadmap!

Hit the Road this week with a new weekly quest! Help Crackshot make his way to the Radio Station to broadcast his festive Song of the Summer.

Jump into the patch notes to read everything new.

Xbox players will need to download a patch to address the stability issues that occur when a Kinect is plugged in.

The old music is not available

**Evidence**:

Have a look. how to get it

**If reproducible, how**:

Log in try to switch music

**Platform**:

Tested on PS4 . Maybe on all other plattforms, too

And to throw a little gasoline into the fire.

You could win it in BR with the new season pass, but I dislike BR and play only STW

And now, we have a problem, where is our shop for emotes etc?

Where could I spend VBucks for the music and emotes. In BR?

Really?

Not everyone is a BR-Player and of course, not me with 45 years

Hey there! As highlighted in our post, we're going to be bringing the store over to Save the World when all of the cosmetics are fully hooked up. We wanted to make sure all of the emotes were accessible and worked correctly before adding the full fledged store.

No option to rebind Emote Wheel. Binding the key to something else makes resetting your controls the only option to get any button for it.

Check Settings > Input > Communication and Settings > Input > Misc. Neither contains an “Emotes” or “Emote Wheel” control.

Set any control to the default key for emotes (I think it’s “B” on keyboard), then remove it. Play the game and see that that key now does nothing.

PC

And yes, you can get to your emotes by scrolling from either Notes or Quick Chat but it’s very inconvenient. Also, with the addition of Traversal Emotes and Hit The Road, I’d appreciate if Autorun were also accessible in Save The World.

EDIT: I mentioned the incorrect default key before. It’s fixed.

Under the "misc" settings.. make sure your "Next" and "Previous" picker wheels are bound to the key you want. We've seen some cases internally where they aren't bound at all which prevents the emote wheel from scrolling.

Explanation : There is currently no keybind attached to emotes in the Communication tab. Evidence : Couldn’t find it in the keybind’s section when I wanted to bind it so I could use them. If reproductible, how : Open your game —> settings —> keybinds —> Look for it. Platform : PC

These are assigned to the "Quick Chat" option or "B" in the settings. Definitely agree that this isn't clear and we'll get something set up to make it clearer.

**Explanation**: Healing upgrade for the event doesnt work (Heal over time when standing near the truck) ... it doesnt work at all.

**Evidence**: no video evidence, but 5/5 times it didnt work.

**If reproducible, how**: Different match, same upgrade chosen, still not working.

**Platform**: Xbox

Hey there! We're aware of this one. Here is the Trello Card for tracking. We'reworking to have this in for v10.10.

Yep! All of that stuff you mentioned there classifies as stability and we're looking into a lot of the issues that have popped up from this patch. This issue is being reported across all game modes as well so there's definitely something going on. We're investigating.
