VN Ren'Py College Kings [Act 2 v6.3.19 Act 1 v1.5.18] [Undergrad Steve]

[Zorro#34]

Played the update.
Nora's first sex scene didn't launch for me at first, so I had to figure out where it's supposed to be, load and roll back to that point, and then it somehow worked.
On the plus side: this update is some sort of Chloe's resurgence. After being 100% focused on campaigning in Ep.1 which alienated many of her fans, then becoming incompatible with Aubrey in Ep. 2, then getting a badly animated sex scene which somehow made her tits smaller in Ep. 3 (!), then becoming Nora's stunt double in Ep. 4/5 (really, some of their scenes, including lewds, are copies of each other), she finally takes center stage in Ep. 6, gets her tits back and has three sex scenes, makes cute faces, is likeable and helpful, and reminiscences with the MC on the earlier days of their acquaintance. This is the best Chloe I've seen since mid-CK1.

Also, despite all the problems, after all's said and done, I still really like this gang.

Ended CK1 being FWB w/Chloe but CK2 starts as friend after loading save. Path finder doesn't give option to make her FWB. Any help?

Don't know how long ago you played but there is no longer a FWB path with Chloe. You don't even get to bang her if you take her to the dance, due to drama. She is girlfriend or nothing.

Only I want to say you can save if you save before Aubry and Riley volleyball game and save again more later, it worked to me so I can enjoy the first part of chapter 6.

Hi. I saved before the volleyball game and tried to save after and it timed out into the gray Ren'py screen of death. I actually got well past that point (Nora and the bald eagle scene with MC) and it gave me the same glitch. It actually autosaved to the part where you have to choose who to root for (Aubrey or Riley) but then stopped autosaving as I had gotten well past that point. Does anybody have any fix for this?

Make sure you haven't missed anybody. After that, I think you need to talk to the girls in the pool again if I'm remembering it correctly.

 

[mcguy101]

In short, yes you can have Riley as a girlfriend, but only her.

I have Aubrey as a GF, but somehow have Riley as a FWB (and Lindsay too). It's weird that Riley won't kiss me, because I have a GF, but she'll do anything else. I am hoping to end up with both Aubrey and Riley, as Riley is into the poly thing, but Aubs isn't, but both seem to like girls. Had a 3-way with them both at one point.

I'm a couple of updates behind because frankly despite quite liking the game initially I got tired of dealing with the incessant bugs and corrections and removed scenes and changed this and changed that and whatever. It just became exhausting. So, all I want to know is if the dev got his/their shit together and if we have a functioning, coherent game, or is it still a bug infested mess? If not then I'll probably give up on it forever.

I downloaded the version from this thread and it took me less then 10 minutes to run into a HEAP of "Unsupported images" and Images that are just stuck in the upper left corner of the screen, been wondering if that's a faulty download on my end or if the game is really going downhill this badly...
EDIT: 6.0.3 and still i run into Unsupported images, the first ones i find are when doing the Recap for Season 1 and you get to the list of LI's when you hover over their images, every single one of them is "unsupported"

On a sidenote, i dunno if it's me but i remember some scenes being better in the past (quality wise), must be me.... i also wonder if that scene with penny in the biolab is still so crap, gonna try and find that out later.

 

[tomoe_wroc]

Yes, there are a few unsupported/missig images. Also I have feling that game isn't good optimalised (sometimes answering messages on phone have a lot of downtime.

a few, before i updated to 6.0.3 it was a LOT XD

If i ever decide to make my own AVN it's gonna get tested so much before i release updates

 

[Prokopije]

Makes you wonder how this game looked WITH those bugs they detected and postponed release "until they fix them"... considering 6.0.0 was "delayed fixed version".

The players have always been the beta testers for this game. Doubt that will change anytime soon. Every update, wait for at least 4 bugfix "mini updates" before trying to play.
Would make sense if it was a Unity game I guess, but is RenPy really that complex?

For game this complex, it doesn't matter. It is pretty complex, even with RenPy. You have to play-test literally everything.
For example, yesterday, I replayed "being single route" in order to grab Lindsey in this new update and encountered bug error during conversation with Elijah where MC is supposed to convince him to give mansion for the party. nothing big, not game breaking, skippable with ignore. But, it's bug which is not there if you have Aubrey or Nora as MC's girlfriend. I played both those routes before, and had no bugs during conversation with him. Every time I picked exactly same options during conversation. Two routes - no bug. One route - bug.
That is kind of bug which dev and testers are "not supposed" to find, so yes, that will be reported later during "mass players test", no fuss about it.
But look at mess we have here. Saving function is broken. Gallery images misplaced giving errors... How can you not notice that kind of bugs? What are they doing during those "alpha" tests? Is it possible that no one opened gallery or tried to save a game?

Not excusing the dev but yes, CK is one of the more ambitious games code wise based on the amount of LIs and their different route styles, with the personality system being another layer on top of it. Personally if I was getting feedback like "game is full of bugs" every update, I would have taken a hard look at it earlier and decided if I bit off more than I could chew and cut back on some things.
