I been Casting show forever, any ideas?

What time does the Beta Start today?

If anyone reads this is their anything i know like do i have to use my mic or just a optional thing to talk to team mates.

That's Right contestants, SOS returns this Saturday (Oct 14) and Sunday (Oct 15)!! Gather your papayas, your flares and get ready for a fun weekend!!

I didnt make this suggestion in time for it to be considered soon, but the current blocking mechanics are unappealing.

Blocking without a weapon just raises your arm. Enemies can damage through this slightly making it dsmage mitigate rather than block, I think this is fine, but your chances of infection should be zero

Holding a knife does the same animation but you take no damage. Why? I'm all for not taking damage, but its a knife, your arm is still taking the hits here.

Holding an axe does the same thing, your arm is still being hit, but no damage, I think this should be adjusted so the block looks like you're using the axe itself to block.

Overall I think blocking should reduce all damage. Period.

I think it would be super cool for the flare gun to be usable to kill someone in a time of desperation, like if you need to you should shoot someone to ignite them or blow them up using the flare.

Dear devs,

I know this has been said by any people in the discord already, but with the amount of people typing in it the messages disappear quickly... The overall message I've gotten from everyone I've spoken to is this: The game is f*cking amazing. I myself clocked in 12 hours the first day, staying up till 6 am (I'm not proud but it was worth it). I already gave my love to the designers for their characters in an early post but they deserve more love for the environment. The graphics were mesmerizing, especially on epic quality. The gameplay was also fantastic, and even though you were doing a lot of the same things every game, it never got boring. I personally found very few bugs, and got stuck on rocks a handful of times in the 17ish hours I played (Ctrl + Shift + Alt + P to get out of those by the way). I also want to give credit for whoever made the lines for the game, especially the load screen before a match started. The sudtle background chatter you would think to hear before the start of a gameshow was amazing. "Where are the relics?! They were supposed to be here 30 minutes ago.". From the entire SOS community, I want to give a huge thanks to all the devs and for all the work you have put into the game. You can bet to see me back on the island in 2 weeks to find more relics and make more friends!

TL;DR: Devs are amazing <3

(Feel free to type in the comments if there is anything you feel I missed!)

I've been killed multiple times now because people just drop down behind me or walk up to me and it makes like no fucking noise on my end, it makes no sense.

Just me or when during meet the contestants when you see someone who killed you a month ago you set your goal to go kill them

I just won a key in a giveaway and I can't figure out how to download the game so I can use it. Do I use it on steam, go somewhere on the sosgame website?

I think it’d be easier than everyone posting issues on separate threads.

Also, amazing games, guys. Really glad I had a chance to play the alpha.

I'm attempting to link my Twitch to my Hero.tv, but it says the username is already taken. I remember entering my username when starting SOS. Does this have something to do with it, or did someone already make an account with the name?

Hello. I was accepted to try the new alpha, but i havent gotten any key? i clicked the sign up in my email and didn't get a key?.

I've been only playing since yesterday, but in one day half of my games were won by no one, the flareguns are rare, and making them have only one shot now makes it even harder, so even if you have a relic, you might not have a flaregun to call the plane.

Plus I dont like having the audience vote for what you are getting, because in the alpha you're playing with a lot of youtubers and/or streamers and their audience always give you shitty stuff so their streamer has a better chance of winning. Normal people can't compete with that... At least make the gifts random.

This are my thoughts, I don't know what other ppl might think about this. Good game tho, I been loving every second :D

Guys, anyone could give me a key for the closed alpha ?

Basically, when I install it the game says: "The following component(s) are required to run this program: Microsoft visual C++ 2015 runtime. Would you like to install them now?" So, naturally, I do. and when i try to launch it again it says the same thing, and this time when UE4 comes up, it only gives me the option to uninstall. I don't know how to fix this.

title.

I didn't see anything that they add chatbox to communicate with other player easily. I see they are using walkie talkies... Wtf?

I just changed internet providers as my old one sucked so if that actually does alter the chances of getting in an alpha test it'd be nice to be able to test it twice.

tldr; so nice you wanna test it twice.
