Huh?? There are only two seasons for TACOS... so play the first season first & then the second.

If you are also including the original version (old version as listed in the OP) & want to play them to compare (which they don't in my opinion ), play up to Chapter 14 and then Chapter 15.

good update, however it's getting a little boring for me, i think it's time to add something spicier to the game rather than just cheating and sex on the beach, and also this piercing thing is really annoying, what's the point of getting one when it's not shown after that.

 

[duckydoodoo]

i like the break up path so far, its the only content that feels the least bit new. though MC is still pretty spineless even then

 

[OrBull2020]

What happend to the parts where Tony would eat out the cum from all the guys?

 

[TonyMurray]

I'm going to call it here, and I'll maybe just check an update now and then to see if there's anything interesting in the gallery. There are so many coding issues now that it's just not fun - well, that and the story has mostly gone tits up.

Most of my MartinAir saves are giving me the scenes from business class (I think it might be because Anne isn't fucking Martin on those saves, or isn't fucking him anymore, at least). The coding doesn't seem to recognise it. Chloe's lunch was completely forgotten about, I only saw a comment on one of my paths that said the equivalent of "Shit, forgot, will have to make it up to her." There's still no Kelsey party if you go alone, so you have to either play on and forget about it (like I imagine the dev might do) or stop there and wait for however long it will take to allow you to play chronologically.

What was the point in Rob (friend Rob, not Uncle Robert)? He tried to get you to have a threesome on your wedding night, calls you up out of the blue and says he's in town, so you send him to surprise your wife at your apartment and don't expect that to lead to anything? How can he possibly be surprised at that ending up in sex? And Rob is so cool that he keeps his sunglesses on to fuck? But then he's gone again, so if you don't send him to surprise Anne, he doesn't even make an appearance, just a text message...

Some consecutive screens I got during my playthroughs today:

Wait, that's not my office...


What happened there? I guess bubye Emma, see you later...


That's not where I live... (also, just because it was a MartinAir save: that's not where she works!)

And this last one isn't an issue, just a bit of the ridiculous:

i like the break up path so far, its the only content that feels the least bit new. though MC is still pretty spineless even then

Even though it's mostly a montage of "I guess no one's up yet," "no one's home," and "I guess I'll just chill here alone" screens?

 

[Lagunavii]

So I was just briefly discussing this with a friend and established with all the choices in this game there are at least 400 ways to play this game. Obviously that's not 400 different paths, just various paths with different flair... but my god that's a lot of fucking things to track. No wonder its a fucking mess now.

Its also clear that some of the paths are not designed to work with each other. Im looking at you MartinAir!

But when I redid my saves. The problems seem to be more on the path where both couples cheat.

Im done I think. Im no longer getting any enjoyment from this.

I agree with you Tony, you I mean not the MC. The story has gone off the rails even more so than the original IMO. This remake was supposed to improve the game but instead has become ridiculous.
The "separate path" should have ended a while ago or should never have been a thing to begin with, it's a waste of time.
I always thought that this game was about their adventures as a couple, but instead it has become the Anne fuck simulator while playing as Tony it's at the office "1 hour later""4 hours later" or "lets check in with Anne"

Hey now. Sometimes he has lunch.

The problem in this game has always been the choice and the amount you can make while not locking out other paths when you make that choice. People don't quite understand how high a number gets just by multiplying the result by 2 over and over.

But at the base of it you have 6 main paths

Faithfull
Anne Cheats (players choice)
Anne Cheats (games choice)
Tony Cheats
Both Cheat (players choice)
Both cheat (games choice)

6 paths is easy to follow, but wait,

lets multiply that by 3 when we add the Cuck or not, Swing or Not, Swing and Cuck choices

up to 24 now.

next comes the Martin Air or 75k choice and we are at 48 different ways to play.

Cuckquean is next and that 48 doubles to 96

next choice is separation, which only comes on the cheating path, so not quite doubling, more increasing by 2/3s which is 64.... bringing us up to 160 different ways now. after separation comes reconciliation or not (which again is not quite doubling only 64 paths can chose to divorce or separate so we are now up to 224!

Finally you have 4 different piercing options so we are at now at a count of 896 different variations to play this game.

I mean this is just rough numbers and not really an exact science and I haven't even taken into account the choices you get when it comes to LI's

essentially its only a handful of choices and doesn't seem like that much to track, but its a lot of results that may not work well together.

Its no wonder its gets messy

Yeah I'm not sure why the dev would choose to do this and make this much work for himself. Is he trying to please all of his supporters? It's not going to end well IMO and he will end up pleasing noone.

There are some people (A minority I think) who like to consume all content at once. Stanford is one. Replayability is not really in their vocab

its easy enough to fix. (well I say that - he tried in the last version) but lets say at Barbados, we get the "lets forgive each other" scene that's put Tony and Anne back on the faithful path then we only have to worry about where Annes pierced, which job she took, who we have said yes or no too, are we swingers and are we cucking each other.

Its still a lot of things to track, but we no longer have to worry about paths clashing. The problem though... whats the fucking point in giving us the choice to do all that stuff in the last 10 chapters if you're just going to take it from us anyway.

So TACOS one is different than Chapter 1 to 15

 

[Ed Hardy_32]

I think this remake is a waste of time. Yes, the previous bugs were fixed but now new ones have appeared. And the whole story hasn't been changed much. There are a few new ways to play but for me personally this game has lost some of its charm. It's not the couple and their adventures anymore.

 

[Adviar5050]

Okay here is my opinion of the new game. I think it is an improvement over the original. You have more options to either do or not do which is good. Also, we are getting more of Annie's perspective which was missing from the last. I have heard some people complain that Annie doesn't seem to care that's she's cheating even with the father. I get that and I kinda agree that I would like her to either have some guilt or just think "haha it's fine". But realize Tony has cheated many times and except with the first time in the massage he's never felt any regret. Also if you follow the break up path but get back together when Annie goes back to work with the father she is given the option to break it off which I thought was smart. Now I don't think the game is perfect, I think there are two many paths to keep straight and even with save names available its too much. For instance you have Annie cheat\150 job\no ryan\walker vacation angle and then you can have different iteration s of that. I'm not even sure I've found all the paths cause I keep getting confused. I mean its not like the game Exciting Games (if anyone could figure out all the paths on that you are Steven Hawking brilliant) but still its tough. I get that the developer wants different paths and I agree it makes the game more fun. But when you get confused over whether you played the cheating path without Ryan on the $75000 job versus the non Martin notice path on the $150000 job you start to pull your hair out. Anyway that's just my opinion, doesn't make it right, doesn't make it wrong, just makes it mine

 

[sagerock820]

I'm probably one of the few that is liking it better than TAC. But I also only play one path - sharing/hotwife. I have zero interest in the cheating paths. I definitely like having more control over who Anne can be with.

 

[Lagunavii]

Okay, lets break these down and tackle them a few at a time

I have heard some people complain that Annie doesn't seem to care that's she's cheating even with the father. I get that and I kinda agree that I would like her to either have some guilt or just think "haha it's fine". But realize Tony has cheated many times and except with the first time in the massage he's never felt any regret.

The problem is Tony does not have to cheat himself, to get Anne onto the Martin path. Its a choice the player can actively make unless of course, the relationship points are low enough and those points don't really have anything to do with Tony cheating. Yes it makes sense for Anne to cheat and show no remorse if the points are low. I mean usually they are too low because you've been a cunt to her anyway. but if you've just chosen the path yourself... well it makes no sense to the story.

Also if you follow the break up path but get back together when Annie goes back to work with the father she is given the option to break it off which I thought was smart.

This is a cause of the problem for the bugs I think - once you kick Martin to the Kerb, there is no reason why you should be on the MartinAir path. the game doesn't know what to do. But at the same time she shouldn't have been given the choice, you've just separated because you've cheated and then reconciled.... the cheating should stop....

I think there are two many paths to keep straight and even with save names available its too much.

See my post above, with the amount of choices you can make in this game too many paths is putting it lightly, just rough maths before I got to over 800 different ways to play. the gmes a mess

I get that the developer wants different paths and I agree it makes the game more fun.

Its only fun when it works, it only works when the choices have consequences and they are meaningful leading to multiple playthroughs, Throwing everything at the wall and seeing what sticks is not fun.

I'm probably one of the few that is liking it better than TAC. But I also only play one path - sharing/hotwife. I have zero interest in the cheating paths. I definitely like having more control over who Anne can be with.

probably the single path you are playing is keeping your game stable.
