ENDLESS™ Dungeon OpenDev Starts Now

Reply

Welcome to the dungeon, we got guns and games! 


The “First Run” OpenDev starts today, and the first confirmation emails have been sent. If you haven’t gotten an email yet, don’t panic! The confirmation emails are going out in waves, so you may still receive yours in the next few days.


So, what do you do once you’ve got your mail? Three easy steps: 

  1. Make sure the Games2Gether account you applied from is linked to Steam  
  2. Redeem your OpenDev Access on your rewards page 
  3. Play the game, stream it if you want, break it, and most importantly, give us your feedback 


However, being in development, the system requirements for Endless Dungeon are still in flux, and may have changed since you applied. For a smooth experience, we currently recommend the following specs: 

  • Windows 7, 64-bit   
  • Intel i7 10th generation / AMD Ryzen 5 5600  
  • NVIDIA RTX 2070 / AMD RX 5700 XT  
  • 16Go RAM 


To help you get started, we’ve prepared a manual and a beginner’s guide. Once you’ve played a bit, the game will occasionally ask you to fill out a survey about your experience, but you can also share your feedback on our forum, or hang out with other OpenDev players on our Discord



This is only a sliver of what we have in mind for the game, but we hope you will already have lots of fun with the “First Run” OpenDev!

El codigo cuanto tiempo tanta en llegar??? 

No enviamos ningún código, al llegarte el email diciendo que tienes acceso (mira en spam) simplemente tienes que ir al apartado de Rewards (el icono de un regalo, arriba a la derecha) para seleccionar la recompensa. No te olvides de vincular tu cuenta de Steam, esto es lo que permite que se añada diréctamente en tu libreria.

How long does the first openflight go on for? And if I've got into this one does that mean I'm in all of them?


Thanks

Runs fine on "High" settings (though I'd love to be able to tweak them) on i7 7th gen, 16gb ram, and 1080Ti - while streaming & recording - so for anyone worrying about it running, it'll still run fine on older systems.

Is Streaming and Recording Allowed? i mean NDA and this?

There wasn't an NDA for the open dev content - though I wouldn't be surprised if there's an NDA for other test builds.

I didn’t see the denuvo malware requirements when I signed up, so feel free to revoke my key, as I won’t be using it. I also will not be purchasing this game while this malware is included.

Sadly I filled out the form on a different account than the one I had linked to my steam. Hope I can still get in for open dev. I love the endless franchise and would kill to be part of the open dev.

Humankind was originally slated to use Denuvo, but the devs removed it. I am surprised to see the Steam page indicating that ED has it.

Got my email! So stoked.


Any chance chosen participants can get one or two invites so they can try co-op with friends? :)

Multiplayer won't be available in this OpenDev, I'm afraid.

Makes sense. Any bugs you found you would have to determine if it was a multiplayer thing or single, or both. Since it is the first run they are going to want a focus on bugs and enjoyment feedback/ideas, multiplayer just complicates that. Once they have the basic info, they will WANT people to do multiplayer because they will need to test that experience separately for comparison.

.

it doesnt help the denuvo servers actually went down some months ago with no gurantee it wont happen again, and I just looked on the store page, it too also says Denuvo, so I can say it really is confirmed.

...really...?  We're going to go through this again...?  Even after SpaceTroll's glowing post about Humankind's sales at launch...?  Even after the universal praise (read: media attention) for Amplitude being pro-consumer by reversing their Denuvo decision for Humankind...?  FWIW, this will be enough to get me to cancel my preorder plans.  *shakes head and rolls eyes*

I imagine the Denuvo thing it's something from Sega and not Amplitude, Sega loves Denuvo in all their new games for some reason.
With sonic mania was the same, Denuvo at launch making the 16 bit game plays laggy and about a month after it was cracked, they took denuvo out of the game.

Denuvo is trash, pirated games run much better than the original games, it's like if they are punishing the consumer for wanting to have things legally.

True.

Why do you punish your paying customers Amplitude?

Please get rid of this sh** and remove it from the game!

Same. Denuvo is a no go!

No Preorder asslong as Amplitude don't come up with a statement that they will remove it from the final release version!

I also applied with anticipation of gameplay, but I haven't received an email yet. Now that I have linked my Steam account, I want to join the tester too. I waited too long....T_T

For anybody still waiting for their email: Another wave should be sent today, and there may be further waves afterwards (I don't have the full schedule in mind.)



Now, to briefly address the elephant in the room here:

As far as I have been told, one of the big problems we had with Denuvo in Humankind was that it was integrated too late, so we would not have had the time to fine-tune it to minimize any performance impact. So with Endless Dungeon, we want to start testing it much sooner.

But I understand that many players feel strongly about DRM and Denuvo in particular, so I would only ask you to please present these concerns in their own dedicated thread.
