So, when will there be an option to save your game at the end of the story?

Hosted Games doesn’t implement end-of-game save systems in titles until a sequel is in the works or the publishing queue. It’d be too much work for nothing until a sequel was made for the saves to carry over.

Ok so I was laying in bed last night and had a variety of ideas for a future update/next instilation of the series.
- Hit man/ assassin played to kill people or payed to kill other combatents in the arena.
2.when your designing sentient robots could one get named and become a friend. Like a sidekick from book 1.

Sorry for the long silence, I’ve been taking a bit of a break from the forums and writing, after the last patch of HoV: BR. That patch hopefully sorted many of the issues that people were having in this thread. Namely, the game should now behave as intended, showing the correct sequence of side missions, and allowing people to perform all the missions that lead up to the rebellion. If anybody is still having trouble please let me know!
@ClaimedMinotaur @Flame9091 does the game work ok for you now? Did you manage to go through the different paths ok?
Also, I nuanced slightly the first reaction of Aggy as she sees you (good point). Let me know if you still feel she is out of character (for those that fought and almost killed her…)
@Colshot yes, that was a recurrent complaint about part 1, so I decided to change this in part 2!
But, I just decided to add some extra choices to book 1, regarding whether you can kill certain characters or not… hopefully this will help to increase the flavour (at least of the villain path).
@Kvngrhomeo unfortunately, as @moonfungus says, I will first need to finish most of book 2 before CoG will implement the save feature (and, I haven’t even written one word for it yet…)
@hustlertwo I did eventually celebrate (well, not really that fully, given the corona-times… normally I would have spent quite a bit of time partying at izakayas… but not quite the thing). Plus, I did take quite a bit of time off, as you saw (sorry for the super-late reply…). Basically, ended up spending quite a bit of time playing Battletech, plus a bit of the old Shadowrun RPG… plus quite a bit of tabletop gaming (Twilight Imperium and other stuff). One thing that this period has given me is more time to get back into playing games, something I had neglected for some time…
@Empress_Nightmare @Servant_of_choices glad you liked the game and theme! 
@Servant_of_choices did you manage to defeat ruby psyche? (possible ways are to increase your psyche using implants, or taking some of the drugs of Kobba or Raas…
@AlexHaydenX glad that you liked it (I am still learning… essentially it is all the feedback I get that allows me to grow as an author!) Basically, I have realised that indeed my characters were too bland (as I was trying to make them interchangeable… bad idea). Anyway, I also take it that the criminal options here might not be the best. Do let me know if you have ideas about what else you would like to tdo as a criminal!

@adrao I tried to get the rebel path once with my original save and it didn’t work, so I started a new playthrough of the first game (and did quite a few things differently) and it worked. I can’t speak to the Aggy problem since I actually romanced her on the new playthrough (Why she die?!). Seeing as I’m currently 3/4 of the way through another Witcher 3 playthrough though, I probably won’t get around to testing this for a while.

@SBI I’ll discuss with CoG about how to sort out the achievements.
@ClaimedMinotaur @SBI Regarding Aggy… there are hints about what is actually happening. However, I guess that the biggest hints come for those that don’t necessarily like the character. if you are a telepath, try reading her mind at the end… or, even better, if you are a vampire, try to drink her dry… which should give you a hint of what has happened when she went off planet . This game was originally a very simple game, which started to get more complex when I decided to try to explore more the characters in it, particularly “Who is the woman in the armor, and what is she truly after”. As such, she is as central, if not more central, to the entire story than the MC. In some ways, I have started to feel that I am telling the story of the SA more than that of the reader, though of course in the final act of this game there should be massive branching at the end.
@Manaxaggd sorry for the late reply. I’ve spent some time looking at this… I can see that there is a problem, but not sure how best to fix it. I mean, I could increase slightly the cost of eyesight, etc?
@0roxson0 ups, good point! Added some nuances to the codes to take into account the energy sword!
I will continue in a few hours from pot #110
(I might have also failed to respond to some comments, if so please feel free to bring them back up… leaving this unattended for a month has meant I forgot much of what was in my head at the time, sorry!)

@kohgreen29 that option should already be there “#Use my telekinesis to take some stones from the floor and float them in front of me for protection.” Is it not being given to you? (after round 3… or, you mean you don’t last until round 3?) I’m happy to code some other combo, but which two powers combined do you have in mind?
@NoOneOfConsequence hopefully this bug is sorted now? (with the update that went up one month ago?)
@Phantomblade I don’t know how to delete saved characters, sorry… (you could start a thread on that, as it is something that is probably common to all saved games in CoG?). Added cryo arrows to the next update, thanks for the suggestion!
@Frankex_2272 hopefully the game should now be working properly? (after the update that took place weeks ago). Are you still experiencing any problems?
@Pedro_Aires the 50> relates to the amount of resources needed. You then need (intelligence +alien_technology) >49) for Mk. 1 and then (intelligence +alien_technology) >99) for Mk.2. Nanobots are slightly lower at >39, >59, >79, and >99 for mk. 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively. The plasma cannon car requires ((intelligence >30) and ((alien_technology > 20)… but there was a bug there! (so, you were probably not allowed to design it before, but this bug should be corrected in the next update! Also, regarding your post #122, hopefully v.1.0.4. already solved all those? (let me know if they persist, and I will look into them).
@kris_g the basic policy of CoG is not to have saves within the game, so there isn’t so much I can do about it (and I guess this is common in all CoG titles… ). On what difficulty are you playing? And, given your abilities, what do you think you should have been able to do in the 3rd run against blademaster? (I am happy to code specific combos, or suggestions from players…)
@Kalpana, please read my previous post, in the answer to ClaimedMinotaur and SBI, hopefully it provides some insights… (post #147).
@Phantomblade Not at all, it is important that you all raise such problems, as it means I/we can understand the problems people are having. Hopefully the previous update to the game (v.1.0.4.) sorted these? (as in, hopefully the current version works fine?)
@Flame9091 That’s an interesting one… I have to say I haven’t thought much about it myself. The key questions to consider would be what does Shiroi Yuki do while you are away… and whether the psychic bond stays, or you would have to re-establish it through another fight. I am inclined to think it should be this second one, meaning you would have to figher her psyche again. But, I guess any deserving hero of her statute would have spent some time trying to improve her psyche… thoughts?
Lizzy, hopefully this is sorted now, as Damar_Glover stated?
@Lycantrophy I checked the code to try to control the lanista… it appears ok, but it might be that I already corrected this in v.1.0.4? (let me know if it persists, and where about this problem is…)

I suppose the question isn’t whether or not she could, but if she actually wants to. After all turning someone into a vampire seems to twist the new vamps desires to match what the one turning them wants
@DangerTrick the general logic is that you need to become a vampire in book 1, and then import the character into this game. If you just start from this one then some of the events in book 1 would not have taken place…
@JustinRChoi I really haven’t thought about making an extra page to list all the possible endings… I haven’t seen any other authors do this, and I am not sure if it is really a good idea? (mmmmm)
@yefeb17513 welcome to the forums! This is a question asked by many… please read the answer I gave to ClaimedMinotaur in post #144, I think…
@Huckleberry_Palmer basically its what @rinari said, I need to write book 3 first… or at least have it almost finished (haven’t even started… 
)
@Lycantrophy good idea about the robots… I thought about this myself, but no playtester requested it, so I thought… “mmmm, maybe people don’t care so much about having a robot companion”, so I never implemented the extra coding… (a bit late now, unless really a lot of people start to request something like this…)
@Flame9091 well, my take on much vampire literature is that, when the MC or reader is a vampire, they often seek independence or freedom from their lord (i.e. they have a will of their own, even if held by more powerful forces). Now, for the less “powerful” humans, they are assumed to be twisted by their lords. But, here you are dealing with one very powerful individual, both in terms of psyche, powers and motivation… so, naturally she would be seeking to break free?
Given that this is a thread that was not initiated by myself, could I ask the moderators to close it, so that I open a thread that has feedback for this game? (and where I can change the title, etc). I should have done this earlier, sorry…
No ya no ha habido problemas.

Sorry, been out of the world a spell. It looks the update worked out. Everything I ran into a month ago seems to have been smoothed out. Much appreciated bro. You are my personal hero for today.

Hi my friend.
This is a request @KaiDeleon or other CoG staff has to process.
