‼️ That's all for today!
We will have another stress test on Friday (Jan 17) at 11am PST / 8 pm CET.
We're upgrading our server and doing lots more fixes for the next test so we hope everything goes better.
If you need a key to participate:
🌐 Players all around the globe joined the test. Most notable countries:
🇺🇸 44.5% 🇩🇪 9.5% 🇬🇧 7.6% 🇪🇸 7% 🇫🇷 6.6% 🇨🇦 6.4%
💬Over 600 channels streamed the test on Twitch with 5370 viewers. Most of the stream time was waiting times and black screens.
During the 4 hours of the test, we got almost 3.5k mentions on our twitter.
📣Our Discord server exploded with 3k new users and over 70k messages during the day of the stress test.
On the other hand, our Discord mods lifespan were reduced by 23 days on average due to the stress caused.
We love you mods, thank you for your hard work.
💢Max won 100% of the Temtem battles. They also won a big amount of staring contests.
But the real MVP? The black screen of death. At least it allowed you to listen to the beautiful soundtrack by @_damiansanchez
🐦28 620 Temtem were captured.
The most captured one: Paharo!
1 003 Temtem evolved during the test.
❤️64.5% of the players chose he/his as their pronoun. 29.5% chose she/her and 6% they/them.
No matter their gender or pronoun, 100% of the stress test participants were in fact... stressed out.
🐾The most picked starter was Houchic (with an impressive 46.5% rate). Followed by Crystle (31.5%) and Smazee (22%).
Tuwai had a 100% rate.
🔧We made ~12 hotfixes in the server (including several controlled restarts) to fix some of the issues that appeared during the Stress test.
Most of the problems appeared after the server was degraded by some bugs we had. The server never surpassed over 25% of hardware usage.
🎢We peaked at ~20k users (~14k ingame + ~6k in the queue). Almost 38k unique users joined the test.
We tweaked several times the maximum allowed users to test how the queue was working.
🤓Some useful and some useless data gathered during the past Stress Test.
❓Searching for friends 🔸You will be able to search for other users and add them as friends in a future update. You will also be able to tag some of them as favorites and the server will prioritize to be put together with them.
❓Soft locking / Double starters / Save issues 🔸We detected some problems with the server not properly saving the progress made so after resetting it you were back to a previous state. We'll fix this issue during the week before the next test.
Addressing some of the feedback we've seen during the test
❓Screen flashes 🔸We'll add an option to disable them on the Early Access release.
❓Character creation 🔸We're going to tweak the options available on release to have more variety (especially in hair options).
We're going to add an option to disable/reduce it in the upcoming release.
Thank you all so much for joining our stress test.
We've gathered a lot of data and made a lot of fixes and improvements over the course of the test.
See you at the next test on January 17 at 11:00 PST
If you lost your progress after the latest server restart, just restart the game. It should be fixed.
If you aren't able to reset your character, try going to the initial bedroom and doing all the cinematics again. After picking (for the second time) the starters you should be able to reset.
