AoTTG2 Alpha - Developer Q&A!

[@hansdiamante8884]

"how do you avoid copyright" This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events, or the attack on titan anime/manga is purely coincidental

[@gamesarememes]

"We will watch your career with great interest"

[@TheTechDweller]

Here's an idea I had for a Reeling tutorial: Get the player to reach a minimum speed and swing around a target, then have the target flash green when the player needs to reel in and attack. Would get players used to that timing before they have to worry about positioning at the same time. If there was a way to record replays in the form of ghosts that could also be used to teach players more nuanced mechanics.

[@aottg2official]

Good idea! I'll probably forward this to the team.

[@DaTLMusic]

Make it like the training arc, with Keith shadis giving all the instructions

[@DaTLMusic]

The movement system is difficult to learn, but it is extremely rewarding once you figure it out. I think a lot of this games charm would be lost if it simplified to something like the roblox aot game.

[@TheGreatCyberwolf]

Having a simplified mode wouldn't be too bad though. You still can have that high skill ceiling but the simple mode gives the newbies/clumsy players an ease-in, then once they hit the simple skill ceiling they can take off the training wheels and go full-force

[@revatem]

Maybe it's because I'm on labtop instead of desktop, maybe it's because the last time I played was 2015, maybe I don't have the right new skill point things... But the movement feels different and I can't get a hang of it yet. Sucks because it's really fun just flying around and I'm struggling to do that lol.

[@DaTLMusic]

@@revatem might be a settings thing, I've played aottg since it's first year, and played actively leading up to the 2nd games release, and it feels almost the same

[@laserbean00001]

Thanks for including my question. Thanks for the great efforts AoTTG2 Team. I still see huge potential in expanding the development of this game out of the show's scope. Wish you the best and good luck with your future endeavours, keep up the updates! Love ya Fuse ❤

[@aottg2official]

[@mategido]

This is literally a dream coming true, I had so much fun with the OG game, I'm so damn happy to have found this today. Bless you all, for real, the joy you just gave me is indescribable

[@Nixeen]

It's not coming to Steam, but you can just add it as a Non-Steam game. Then you can set your own custom cover art for it. Idk why more people dont do this.

[@Sharprider8]

Man, the future is looking good

[@onigirya490]

Always love to see fan projects like this. Thank you for sharing all of your efforts with us! Keep up the great work!

[@Sete_40]

Bro, I played this game many years ago at a time when there was practically nothing, I have very good memories of that time playing with my school friends, the feeling of nostalgia is incredible, thank you for bringing this perfection back!

[@mestreluk]

Thank you everyone from the team for your efforts. I wish you guys enough serenity to deal with the problems pertaining game development, and also to deal with the expectations of those who have not a single clue about how hard any of this is.

[@astralyew]

after finish watching the video i would say you guys are really working things out just pure out of passion and love. and some guys at the comment section still asking things you already answer.

[@thingofportals]

Really really hope we can save the little citizen sprites we see running around in that gameplay preview. The immersion of coming up on a titan and they have a person in their hand and getting to spontaneously save a little sprite person just sounds so fun.

[@kamishirorize8]

Yo, guys, first of all, thank you for all work that you've done, are doing now, and continue to do in future. Your game is incredible, really fun and at the same time difficult to master. I hope the playerbase would support you in all ways and you'll be able to make a masterpiece.

[@zallesyn4686]

the most important question: will we be able to play as wheelchair levi?

[@aottg2official]

Someone in the community already added a wheelchair into the game as a custom asset lol

[@agentlegun]

Yes! Will be supporting you guys❤

[@vaapad3092]

Thanks for the great game! I have a small suggestion, but I'm not sure if others share this opinion, I feel that the cooldowns for the blade attack skills (spins and Mikasa's chop) should be significantly reduced, maybe to around 0.5 seconds. These moves are fun and visually exciting, but they don’t necessarily increase gameplay efficiency, so it would be great to use them more frequently

[@enakchandler3812]

Troll comment

[@danielcerqueira2611]

My questions are: In question, the gameplay and physics of ODM itself, as I'm not really the type of person who just uses it once and gets the hang of it, I wanted to know if there is a possibility for you to stop using ODM more Easy as automatic functions, such as the Hooks retracting automatically instead of pulling the Mouse Scroll, or do you already have something in mind for this? Question 2: About the Titans Shifters, do you intend to put the 9 Titans? If so, do you intend to put unique skills for them, such as the Armored titan having Rush, Female Hardening, Attack and War Hammer skills, etc. And the main question, do you intend to PVP between Shifters?

[@Kickiusz]

Wow, that Kickiusz person sounds pretty annoying. I bet they're in the comments right now, typing out how it's actually pronounced "kitz-kyoosh" or something (still love y'all❤).

[@Kyusofire]

I thought, it would be great to make a KZbin playlist with all the music/ost of the games !

[@GridDelinquent]

A 10v10 pvp based mode with an objective would be cool, with factions and unique shifters for said factions.

my questions 1. will there be shifter customization? 2. will there be new abilities for shifters? 3. will the thunderspear FINALLY cripple/blind/amuptate titans? 4. will there bew new weapon types? (blade types/ ahss types etc) 5. will the titan's head blow up when kissling it as a shifter? srry if i'm asking too much

[@aottg2official]

I think all except the last question are answered in the video lol. But I will answer number 5 here: I do think we'll add that eventually, yeah. It's a lower priority for now but once we start really working on shifters properly we'll greatly consider it

@@aottg2official thx for bringing back the game and thank you for leaking the new dowloadable skins, it"s been a real struggle copy pasting the links (note that the disability of the thunderspear not crippling/blinding/amputating the titan is really annoying and dissatisfying)

[@YupNopeYup]

Can you play this game without Internet? I currently have a pc that doesn't have Internet... I only use usb

[@johanoriel6702]

Because there is no Trost defense mode with Eren Titan and the Colossal Titan and you can make a video explaining all the improvements and details and what else you are going to implement in the game

[@Lucho-Uriel]

For the Thunder Spears you could add a Skill or Perk that lets you carry 4 in each arm like Mikasa but in exchange it reduces your ODM movement speed a little?

[@aottg2official]

Thunderspears are still getting reworked so we won't be adding any perks for it until then. We may add a perk somewhat similar to this idea later on though, we're still deciding exactly what we want to do with perks going forward.

[@Lucho-Uriel]

@aottg2official I honestly didn't think you would answer me, Thank you very much for taking your time to read my comment and thank you for the masterpiece you gave us.

[@blazerking262]

Is there anything that you will be doing to make the learning curve easier for the turning and aiming? I never found out how to get faster in the forest and accurately aim for a titan.

[@handlebars246]

Please increase the hit box for legs and arms, also please allow us to injure them during animations. I've slashed up the knees so much during animations but it doesnt do anything

[@sabre119productions]

A follow up to the comment you made about soldier ai, do you think it's possible and more feasible to have non odm soldier ai, like the MPs or Marley? Could make for a fun but probably complicated liberio mission down the line.

[@aottg2official]

We'll likely add this in an update. We just need to think of optimizations and how/if they should customize, for stuff like hair, uniform, colors, etc.

[@KeanAfewChs123]

@@aottg2official Would really be cool with civilians or military police on the ground for map making, but is it also possible to add rifles? like they can be pretty accurate, long range and can be used when riding horses but there damage to titans is bad

Can you guys make it that after a certain amount of explosions/smashes from players/titans that the buildings would look like damaged? Haha it's just for some added immersion, but great job! I tested the game earlier and it was fantastic

[@aottg2official]

If we can optimize the game enough, this would be a cool addition later on! No promises though.

[@Saint_Eight]

Do you guys have a roadmap?

[@TheTechDweller]

Says in the video no.

[@skrydon78]

lol a question hours before the premiere starts

[@mikenobi]

Will this game be on mobile? If so I can't wait

[@LittleNamMan]

One question I had about Shifters. I believe I know you guys are adding different Shifters, although I'm not entirely sure if you're adding all of them, since one Shifter I can't quite wrap my head around is the Colossus Titan. How do you plan to go about implementing the Colossus Titan? They seem rather big, and I imagine it'd be difficult to try and give them a work around. Maybe you plan to add an overhaul to the maps to fit the Colossus Titan? This is all assuming you plan to add every Shifter to the game and don't decide to leave some out. You might not have the answers yet, but in the event you have ideas on how you want to incorporate the Colossus Titan, I'm genuinely curious, since that Shifter seems a tad more tricky to put into the game given how big they are.

[@aottg2official]

It is definitely the one titan that I had to think the most about. What I've decided on for now is this: the Colossal Titan will be on the smaller side (about a size 4/5 titan), and it will probably immediately unshift after using its heat blast attack. If you don't want to immediately unshift, you can walk around, jump, kick, and slowly slap/slam. I think this should be relatively balanced for the Colossal and still provide utility, even on maps that it'd be too big for.

[@mirainokiokuha]

Can you add this game on steam 😢 Hope noone misses the /s Love the game, keep it up lads ❤

[@BantaBXD]

Are you guys planning to drop the OST any time soon? Ya'll popped off on it ngl, manages to sound unique whilst still keeping an air of AOT

[@aottg2official]

We're waiting on a few tracks to finish before we release it. A lot of people have asked for the soundtrack to be posted here so we definitely want to provide it!

[@Black_Vassago]

I think it would be great if you respond to this...The game have the different cameras and you can lock the titan too, but it makes no sense if you play with TPS camera and lock the titan too, maybe you guys can try to make that if you lock the titan automaticaly changes to original camera meanwhile you are locking the titan

[@joaquinmore5670]

Andorid?

[@VermeilChan]

AYYY YOU REPLIED TO MEEE ❤❤

[@zombied3stroy3r9gaming4]

Will there be any chance of changing the range that titans notice you? Maybe have it based on the difficulty Also a tooltip of the different skills when you look over them, such as effective ranges, maybe? Like what is the range of something like the distract skill?

[@tonepplgaming]

Well i always want to ask these two questions The first question is "Will there be a mobile version of aottg 2?" The second question is "Will there be live event like rumbling event or reclaiming shigashina event?"

[@crimzonkamui4498]

That clears up a lot of questions, but I’m still waiting on the release of the official soundtrack. Ik I could have said something in the Q&A but didn’t feel like it as I know it’s not something everyone’s asking. Is there an approximate release date for the soundtrack?

[@aledcaa5036]
