Key Quest in Beta Testing

[Siouxper]

I think I may have just spotted an even more annoying strategy. One player just parked himself in the last square before the door and kept skipping his turn. He won his keys by winning mini-games. I've never tried so hard to win mini-games before! I'm going to have to keep an eye out for him and see if he does it again, or if it was just a fluke of the game being laggy and costing him turns. I REALLY hope it was the second.

Unless he "happened" to try to use powerups besides Gummy Die every single turn, he did it on purpose. Block him so you don't have to play him again.

Wow...Helena. Just..wow. I have never seen so many sore losers in my life. The game is laggy and buggy, I have seen people freeze and drop, but the other tactics, just plan silly. I get so irritated when people drop at the end of a game on me when I am winning. I only get my son's nap time to get any play, it stinks to get my time wasted because someone is a cranky crab about losing.

I did put in a suggestion with the beta comments that if someone leaves the other person in the game they still get awarded a key. Obviously that leaves room for exploitation there as well. Maybe they are going to have to limit the amount of games you can play per day, so that the people that drop when they are going to lose instead of taking a silver key get no key and lose one of their plays for the day. I dont know. Then the lag and dropped games would need to be fixed so some poor person does not lose a play due to the glitches. They need to do something though, because people are behaving so poorly.

I had an annoying glitch happen 2 days ago: I actually managed to WIN a mini game (for once) and selected which key I wanted... but the game never registered my win/key. The person I was playing against managed to snag their last key and win the game because of it. Yuck.

I have to admit the prizes are absolutely amazing!! I have gotten several codestones, wearables, rare stamps, books, and a really pretty background from a second place prize. This is after only playing 3 or 4 times. Key Quest might be the "key" to bringing me back to neopets.

I have concluded that keyquest is NOT dial up friendly. I have not once gotten the game to load beyond the 'pick your token'

[Shoyru_Lover]

Wow there are still people out there using dial-up? Once you go cable/adls/broadband... you never go back.

I haven't been able to get in to Key Quest at since this morning. I get stuck at the blue connecting screen and that's it

I live in the country my options are dial up or satellite of some sort. Yes those are the only two options.

[Pickles]

One thing I've discovered I like is the "block" function. You can "block" the annoying people who ditch you on the last turn if you want, and thus never hafta deal with them again.

Please note, this is *not* a complete list. I know it's possible to win paint brushes from Gold keys, and have heard of some map pieces being won as well. Plus, I'm guessing that the other red codestones can be won as well, and possibly other bottled faeries. This is just what I've received results for so far.

Well Pickles, I'm not going to bother sending you a compleat list now, but you can get Bottled Dark Faeries too.



KQ didn't work for me at all today.

LOL. I'll edit it into my list.

ETA: I am actually tracking which items are won by which key, so if you want to continue sending lists, it'll help.

Are we still talking on the assumption that only Premium users can get in?
Cause I'm pretty sure I'm not Premium and I can play the game.

Ummm, no - way back on Page 2 it was posted that Key Quest went into open beta.

Must have missed that XD Sorry.

[saine]

Are the powerups not loading for anyone else? I keep on being forced to skip a turn! (Argh, frustrating!)

Edit: Dur, just saw a complaint from someone else further upthread

[Shoyru_Lover]

Don't sweat, I missed the screenshots on page 1!

[May]

As of yesterday, no power-ups were working :/
