I checked on the iOS app store and the publisher listed is Sunborn Network Technology Co. Ltd. Who is the actual real publisher of the game lol
And it's Haoplay on my PlayStoreI checked on the iOS app store and the publisher listed is Sunborn Network Technology Co. Ltd. Who is the actual real publisher of the game lol
Both are real, but they didn't explain the publishing situation to the public lol. I think it depends on your region. Sunborn is self-publishing EN, but somehow there's also a haoplay site in English. Maybe it is meant to be used by European?I checked on the iOS app store and the publisher listed is Sunborn Network Technology Co. Ltd. Who is the actual real publisher of the game lol

My body is ready. Sadly i don't think i made it into CBT. No e-mails, not even in my spam folder.CBT trailer. Narration being Nemesis's gibberish is certainly... a choice
Emails will be sent out on Nov 9th! Please let us in.My body is ready. Sadly i don't think i made it into CBT. No e-mails, not even in my spam folder.
Congrats! I got nothing, so it looks like I need to try the battle royale route.Just came in. Good luck to everyone else!
May the odds be ever in your favour.Congrats! I got nothing, so it looks like I need to try the battle royale route.
Thank you. Have fun! I will be playing the PC version from Mica site. Seems to be the safest one if you plan to play it for years to come.By the way, which server is everyone looking to play on for the actual release? I know Steam (Haoplay) is nice and convenient for a lot of people but not everyone has access whereas MICA should just be a download on their website so everyone should be able to access it right?

Gonna go with the official Sunborn/MICA one. Good way to avoid any future licensing issues or whatever.By the way, which server is everyone looking to play on for the actual release?

Apparently translation on marketing materials are different but I am not sure about them in-game.So apparently the Haoplay client supports more languanges than the Sunborn one. Which makes sense cause Haoplay covers most of Europe.
Now, both Haoplay and Sunborn obviously support English, but apparently the localisation is different
Would be curious to know wich one is "better".
From what I understand the Sunborn version of the game supports only those same 4 languages. Only the Haoplay version has the additional languages. I dunno what quality standard Haoplay usually has for that (and whether they use the same EN script).GFL1 has actual human TL team for the EN, KR, and JP versions. People you can actually talk to in the official discord, or who have presented themselves on Social Media.
For GFL2 to suddenly support many more languages than the base 4, (CN, EN, KR, JP), I do think AI/Machine TL and maybe a human does an overpass. But obviously not good enough. Hopefully with the Beta test here and everyone reporting the localization slip ups, they'll course correct back to humans. At least for EN i think they will.
The system settings are definitely MTL. Translating "medium" to "center" hmmmmm.I'm not gonna lie, i suspect some AI involvement on the TL front.

I'm playing it but I'm cautiously optimistic. I think story-reading wise it's pretty good. Not so wordy and roundabout it feels like a slog to read like Arknights but it progresses the story at a nice pace. I love the soundtrack and the GFL victory theme has always been my jam. Missions so far seem somewhat easy and it so far but I'm not "endgame" yet. Dailies are easily completed and farmable stages have auto/skip which is a huge plus.Is anyone playing the CBT?
Not sure how to feel about this tbh. I prefer it when there's no "future-sight" and everyone can figure the game out at the same time. With too much of a delay the game is "solved" and discussion often just revolves around which meta unit to safe for and who to skip etc and there's nothing left to theory-craft.
Time for SingularityAnyway, I just finished Chapter 10. Dang.
Also looking at the playlist, this is where the chapters/events start getting really long
Likely but there is no news so far. Make sure that you have pre-registered in the right server because Sunborn / Haoplay does not share account. Steam is Haoplay only.I've done the preregistration on mobile, but i would much rather play the game on Steam, will that version be out the same day or only at a later point?
That's dumbLikely but there is no news so far. Make sure that you have pre-registered in the right server because Sunborn / Haoplay does not share account. Steam is Haoplay only.
How so?Just be aware if you choose the Steam/Haoplay version you're locking yourself out of being friends with everyone here i imagine whose already sworn to get the one directly from Sunborn/MICA.
It's just the safest bet.
Well for example, the CN version of GFL1 has just been de-listed because of a publisher lapse. And now it's gonna take 6-months to a year to get it back up.That's dumb
That sounds like a completely unessecary issue on the developers side tbh, why even have different publishers?Well for example, the CN version of GFL1 has just been de-listed because of a publisher lapse. And now it's gonna take 6-months to a year to get it back up.
Obviously they'll try to avoid that happening for GFL2 now that they've had their hand bitten once, but you can never be sure can you? So that makes the self-published version more safe. Imo.
Cacher can probably explain it better than me, since as far as I remember he actually knows Chinese.That sounds like a completely unessecary issue on the developers side tbh, why even have different publishers?
I'll consider, but i'll most likely play the Steam version anyways for convenience sake

Sunborn never explained why the multi-publisher approach or what region should go to which server, so like Echo said, regional laws and translations are probably the reason why they partner with Haoplay. The whole situation is honestly confusing and they should have done more explanation rather than leaving fans to speculate.Cacher can probably explain it better than me, since as far as I remember he actually knows Chinese.
My understanding is that games in China NEED a publisher for the government registry. Or at least an entity with a Publishing #. When GFL1 was born, it was MICA's first aside from their indie doujin. They probably didn't have the money to self-publish in China when they very first started.
For GFL2, I imagine it's an issue of manpower this time. MICA is now developing GFL1, Neural Cloud, GFL2 and probably another Reverse Collapse game. Haoplay publishing the game in Europe, Japan, and South America helps them with translations to those new languages I guess. And any other regional laws, like for example we just saw the one in Germany where EVERY game has to be age-rated.
