Is anyone else running into the problem where the daily wheel won't work? I did it Tuesday, and I haven't been able to do it since then.
So unless there is something I am missing, it's not the daily wheel, but the one time wheel. Similar to the death wheel in the old version

What do you mean by transparency Liam?

More or less what you have all been saying. Whether someone is the dev or not, if they are running the project they need to keep it's users informed. The entire world doe snot want to sit through a video, so posting here or on another site would be a good idea.

Yeah, truth hurts, so that's why you are not coming on this forum. Joe, I asked you simple questions. Do you find logging in to the game intuitive and the fact it will take 10 minutes to type using the system you have? Nothing else. I did not ask for more content, for more story, that can wait. I simply asked for a polished, stable and smooth experience. There are no verbal attacks. Noone told you yu suck, those are simply facts about your design. Why you chose this silly system is not understandable to me. Don't reinvent something that's already working, namely the virtual keyboard. Equally stop blaming the community. Do as you wish though and keep decreasing your playerbase.

the hole aiming system I don't know how I feel about it. do we turn or tilt the phone to aim, or do we wait intill one of them comes near us?

You either have to sit in a spinny chair or stand up and turn around.
Also, I hate that virtual keyboard thing. I can type faster using the onscreen keyboard with Voiceover than that thing. The other nice thing with the onscreen keyboard is that since I know my computer keyboard, I have a general idea of where letters should be, and so I tap in the area where I think the key should be. Since I can see that the keyboard is there, I can tell whether or not I am touching outside the keyboard or not

2020-03-14 17:27:17

So, Joe, given the information that, you, just told us about one of your devs having family issues and what not with cancer, If you would have just came out and stated that right from the get go and not posted as much ass YouTube videos of which, I'm sure, not many of us, myself included clicked on because, lets face it. We ain't gunna wanna be watching YouTube videos or listening to a podcast, just to see what the hell is going on with MV. Maybe, if you would have just, oh I don't know. Wrote that shit in text and not posted so much links of which we half of the community don't pay attention to, maybe we all would have understood and we wouldn't have been as harsh. I'm so tired of communication not being taken accounted for here with blind people now days. I'm not happy at all here, more am I impressed. You still ave not told us why the $800 server. I'm still waiting on that answer. There's a difference in being in communication with people and trying to work things out, and lying to us all about things and not coming out and expressing. And, no. I'm not being a dick about all of this either. Oh and I, was the one who gave y'all that one star review. Sorry y'all, but I'm not gunna lie about something that I didn't do. If I was running a gaming company, I wouldn't call myself a dev because, I'm not a game developer. Sure, I can code but I'm mostly a web dev. There's nothing wrong with you, not being a game dev, but there's clearly something wrong when you are indeed, stating somewhat facts stating looking like you are one. Quit lying to us all and just come out with the truth already. I'm sick of all the bullshit lies.

Moderation:
I understand the frustration over the game and what is going on, but can e please tone it down on the vulgarity. there really is no reason for it. You can get your points across way more constructively without the constant bombardment of four-letter words.

I mean come on, you got the same warning on  Applevis for the exact same message, so why would that be right here? I am just as unhappy with how things turned out but you can write that as Liam said without repeating swear words so much.

2020-03-14 22:05:23

Transparency is important. That's definitely true.

However, saying that it's this dude's fault for someone giving him a beatdown like that? Uh...no, not really.
If I make you mad and you punch me in the face, I'm at fault for doing things to anger you, but you threw the punch, so you're on the hook for that.
Johnnyboy, your tone is ridiculous, even if your overall message is understandable. You don't actually change minds that way. Have you ever heard that old saw about how you attract more flies with honey than with vinegar? Well, bro, that wasn't even vinegar. It was the verbal equivalent of rancid goat's milk and liquified meat. In a word, pungent. All you proved to me with your message is that you're too immature, angry or inarticulate to get a good point across. Were I a dev who saw a message like that, I'd probably end up ignoring the good points purely because I had to sift through all the stench to even get close to them. Not cool. Not useful. In fact, it's counterproductive. Either you care about the game and you want to see it improve (in which case, why shit on someone this hard?), or you really don't care (in which case, why open your mouth at all?).

That said, I want to stress the importance of transparency. If the other dev is having personal problems, that is 100% okay and I bet most people would probably understand if that had been mentioned, even in rough. The best thing to do is tell what you can, as soon as you can, within reason. I'm not here to kick you, but if you promise updates, and the updates are crappy (I don't actually know, I haven't played the game at all), you're going to generate some negative feelings, and some of it is going to be your fault if you don't explain what's going on. Even for a free product, this is just good sense talking here; you don't want to bankrupt your supply of goodwill just when you might need it most.

Why is this considered a free product when it has in app purchases? So here's how to avoid criticisms to new developers. Make the initial download free and just get a bunch of in app purchases. There, now you can say it's free so you have no right to request anything. Well, no, it's not free and some people paid to get endless mode, different weapons or powerups that the game offers.

Hi.

Lol urm, does someone know what happened to the circus masters topic on the applevis forums? I wanted to check how the AV comunity is finding the game, but the topic is gone big_smile.

Greetings Moritz.

2020-03-15 14:23:57

Hi,
@237: Agreed. The way this game is ripping People off their Money is just disgusting.

About the whole bashing thing: Joe came on her and on Applevis claiming he is the developer of this game (or at least, the main spokesperson for Mentalvision, if he isn't the dev), so he should be able to take the community's criticism if the game is plain horrible, which it is.
So that's why I don't understand why he is complaining about the criticism.

Greetings and happy gaming, Julian

OK transparency. I understand what that means. I have tried to be transparent as possible with our community. The daily death will issue is being worked on. My team has gotten permission to work from home during this virus pandemic. The email login keyboard issue, Apple is not allowing a third-party user to access the accessible keyboard function for some reason. I don't understand why not. I was under the impression that Apple would allow us to use their tools on their platform. The $500 server issue is for third-party transaction. It was $800 but, we found a cheaper provider. Apple does not allow third-party developers to access their servers for in app purchases. Apple will keep track of money spent but, they will not keep track of consumable purchases such as what you spent money on. Yes there is an in app purchases in the game. They are not mandatory as you get free weapons along the way. Power ups and weapons that are there in case you get stuck. The in app Purchase is a way for you to support my development team so they can get a paycheck. Unfortunately they don't like to work for free. I took the Apple form down because people were breaking The guidelines I set. It was supposed to be used to help one another not to disrupt and cause issues. I agree with Liam. Constructive criticism goes along way. If you're angry about something, it's OK. There are certain ways to manage and convey how upset you are without causing anger. when you say I am lying to you, I'm not sure what you mean. What have I lied about? I have always had an open door policy. If you're having issues I respond to emails very quickly. We will be resolving these issues the best we can and keep moving forward in the production of CMR. I am sorry if you are not liking this game. I promise it will get better. Happy hunting.

Accessible keyboard function? Dude, tell your development team to stop scamming you. That's not how it works. It's the same exact standard on screen keyboard used in any other app. There is no special accessible keyboard. The default one that the OS provides is accessible by default. Whether your team will use it or provide some BS reason not to is another story. Do not blame Apple. Apple gave you the tools, you are to use them. Which accessible keyboard function? Any link to provide for that one? It's certainly new to me. Have you actually played any game, used any app on your phone? They certainly don't use any special accessible keyboard.

2020-03-20 18:49:37

dude, your dev team is playing you like a childs piano right there.

If apple wouldn't allow third party developers to use their inApp purchase system how else would third party developers use that? I know a few people with active apps in the store and they use apples iapp systems to keep track of which items were bought.

And accessible keyboards. ugg, just ugg.

Greetings Moritz.

Unity at the moment does not allow for the default keyboard to be used. But as far as the in-app stuff goes. yes. it sounds like you're being taken for a ride.

Apple allows the use of their tools to develop with for transactions and other stuff. Just goes to show that your devs are not doing their research and just clowning you. I think it's time for you to find a team who knows what the hell they doing. Have your devs ever looked at apple's docs of their APIs? Have your devs actually looked at the reasonable tools that apple is giving you to make this thing more manageable? I think the answer here is, N O... If they knew what the hell they were doing, they would have done their research. And why the use of facebook login when apple gives you the tools to restore purchases right from their servers using your apple ids? Yep, Not buying this bull at all. It's either, you communicate to your devs that you indeed know of a way to use apple's tools to do stuff, or you find a better development team. I've seen well thought out apps, games and the like come out way polished than this. You claim that you have a talented dev team right behind you when, I and many others, do not think so. If they were talented, then why the hell they scamming you in the first place with all this nonsensical bull shit. The stuff that I'm getting from all of this it, just, doesn't, make, sense at all. It's different if you need help in a certain part of development like code or whatever, but this is clearly, not cool.

Liam, I am aware that with Unity you can indeed not use the default keyboard. What you most likely can however do is open a browser window so people can log in using Safari or something. It would be so much better than the system which is being currently used. This is how audio game hub and a blind legend do their score posting and newsletter sign up systems.

correct. Doesn't feer do this as well?

I'm just trying to figure out why you would need to spend $500 on a server. I think you are getting scammed in that department man. This also goes for that "Accessible Keyboard" you were talking about.

2020-03-20 20:41:39

Unity is not allowing us to use the keyboard as Liam has explained. We are brainstorming to find a better feature. Consumer purchases are different from the in app purchases. Keeping track of them is something that Apple will not do. I hope that makes sense. this is what Apple has told me personally. It's not my team. If Apple has misinformed me then, please let me know.

2020-03-20 20:58:51

I never heard of a accessible keyboard. the only keyboard I know of is the one that comes on the phone or iPad by default.

Ah, so you can't use the accessible keyboard or you can't use a keyboard because your game is a Unity game? Maybe it's time to decide what story you'll be telling.
