Hero or Villain: Genesis (Thread for reporting bugs etc)

Great and interesting game.Though there are some bugs need to fix.
-when you choose stun ability for shadow power it does not appear in the power menu tried it a few time already
-something went wrong when i try to become vampire it said something about an error
Hope you can fix these bugs soon and keep up the good work!

I just wanted to drop a note about the game. This is the first time I have seen a game that had hinted at a sequel but didn’t include a save feature into the game. This could be included in an update?

Wait…there’s an option to become a VAMPIRE? How in King Tut’s name do you reach that path??:astonished:

(sorry if this has been mentioned already) So I ran into a bug that I managed to trigger three times in a row(picking the last option) at the same point in the story. last night when I bought this game the bug wasnt there even though I made all the same choices I had made that night.

I’ll try a completely different route and see what happens but I hope this bug gets delt with :frowning:

Edit: almost forgot to mention I’m playing this on the omnibus hosted games app not the actual story’s separate app

Was there a reason you are forced into being a vegetarian? I noticed it when in Mongolia eating with the nomadic family. They are meat eaters primarily and the game forces the pc into being a vegetarian (the best you can do is basically begrudgingly eat the meat and think it’s not good but it’ll give you strength.) The issue I have with this is my character never would have been a vegetarian. He is a wolf-human hybrid with an almost stereotypical carnivore body builder vibe to him. For him to suddenly not enjoy meat made the game less immersive because there was no option for him to actually enjoy the food.

Villain build, ok really enjoyed the game. Have done 4 play throughs, first one as a air speedster hero and went well and was able to overcome the villains I faced. Then I tried being a villiain, much harder and after 3 attempts have been defeated all 3 times, 1st time defeated as a shadow villain by neutron butterfly. Next time as earth villain defeated by the moon hero (forget name but the show off hero) and lastly as earth villain but changed up some powers and was defeated by Watts when trying to gain control of criminal empire. Any suggestions on a power build to be able to defeat all the heroes ?

As a criminal empire Villian
i chose Time based powers
Speed (under movement abilities)
and melee energy weapon
then as much speed and fighting stats as i could
add regeneration and force field to taste.
i made it all the way using only that energy katana was my weapon of choice and i used speed punches attack with katana and super speed with katana.
this is a playstyle i have only tested with criminal empire but its effective & near untouchable.

Try the speedster power set and maxing out super speed to the highest I think it cost around 150 hero points and then with that your basically unstoppable

@lu427 can you post a screenshot about the error? Otherwise, hopefully the bug in the power menu is gone? (well, please wait for the update)

@DPerna the game was just released, so the save feature was not included. Realistically, it’ll take me 1-2 years for the sequel, and I’m sure there are going to be a number of updates before that (given the number of bugs being reported…)

@Tridentking I’m not sure about this… I have checked the code and everything seems to be ok. Maybe it’ll ā€œmagicallyā€ dissappear in the next update… do let me know if it doesn’t and I’ll try to ask CoG…

@Drakkaen ups, that option was clearly missing! I added a new ā€œLove meatā€ option! :slight_smile:

I wish you could have the option to ignore the calls from the radio and continue on with your work.

But seeing as the game has been released, guess I just have to live with my choices.

You mean at the start? Eventually the option is present, when you have to face the SA after the masquerade . Unfortunately, if you mean before that it is difficult to do, as otherwise the story wouldn’t move forward…
