Server Channel Guide
The ULTRA works Discord server typically organizes information into channels by topic. While the exact channel structure may change, these are the most important channels to monitor:
Announcement Channels
| Channel Type | Purpose | How Often to Check |
|---|---|---|
| #announcements | Official updates, patch notes, rework news | Daily or when major updates are expected |
| #codes | New promotional code releases | Daily — codes can appear without warning |
| #updates | Development progress, roadmap changes | Weekly |
| #events | Community events, game nights, tournaments | As needed |
Discussion Channels
| Channel Type | Purpose | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| #general | General Lurking Giants discussion | Casual conversation, questions |
| #strategy | Survival tips, Giant tactics, map discussion | Improving gameplay skills |
| #giant-discussion | Giant-specific strategy and balancing | Giant players sharing techniques |
| #survivor-discussion | Survivor strategies and cover tips | Survivor players coordinating |
Support Channels
| Channel Type | Purpose | How to Use |
|---|---|---|
| #bug-reports | Report game bugs and glitches | Follow the bug report template |
| #exploit-reports | Report players using exploits | Provide evidence (video/screenshots) |
| #suggestions | Feature requests and ideas | Explain your idea clearly with reasoning |
| #help | Technical issues and game questions | Ask your question, wait for community response |
Using Discord for Code Alerts
The most practical reason to join the ULTRA works Discord is code alerts. New codes for Lurking Giants appear on Discord before they reach any other platform. Currently, SORRYFORDELAY (200 coins) is the only active code, but the VERITY rework launch is expected to bring multiple new codes.
Setting Up Code Notifications
To never miss a new code:
- Enable notifications for #codes channel: Right-click the channel → "Notification Settings" → select "All Messages"
- Enable @mention notifications: Make sure your Discord settings allow server-wide @mention notifications
- Check daily: Even with notifications enabled, check the #codes channel daily for any codes that may have been posted without @mentions
- Redeem codes immediately: Codes can expire without warning. When a new code appears, open Lurking Giants and redeem it right away
Code Redemption Process
| Step | Action | Details |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Open Lurking Giants | Launch the game on Roblox |
| 2 | Enter the lobby | Wait for intermission between rounds |
| 3 | Open the Shop | Find the Shop icon in the lobby |
| 4 | Navigate to Codes tab | Click the Codes section |
| 5 | Type the code exactly | Codes are case-sensitive — SORRYFORDELAY must be typed exactly |
| 6 | Press Check/Submit | If valid, 200 coins are added immediately |
Using Discord for Strategy Improvement
The ULTRA works Discord community includes experienced players who share strategies, map knowledge, and gameplay tips that are not available anywhere else.
What You Can Learn from the Community
| Topic | Channel | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Forest map cave locations | #strategy | Learn exact positions of two-exit caves |
| City tunnel network maps | #strategy | Navigate underground paths efficiently |
| Guilt counterplay | #survivor-discussion | Community-developed techniques against Guilt's Haunt |
| Giant patrol optimization | #giant-discussion | How experienced Giants hunt efficiently |
| Audio cue interpretation | #strategy | What different sounds mean for your survival |
| Pulse relocation timing | #strategy | Community-tested optimal relocation windows |
How to Ask Effective Strategy Questions
When asking for help in the Discord, follow these guidelines:
- Be specific: "How do I survive Guilt's Haunt in City buildings?" is better than "How do I survive?"
- Share your context: Mention which map, which Giant, and what time in the round you are struggling with
- Read before asking: Use the search function to check if your question has already been answered
- Thank responders: A simple thanks encourages experienced players to keep helping
Interacting with the Developer
The ULTRA works Discord provides the only direct communication channel with the Lurking Giants development team. This is unusual for a Roblox game and represents a significant advantage for Discord members.
What You Can Do
| Interaction Type | How to Approach | Expected Response |
|---|---|---|
| Bug reports | Submit in #bug-reports with clear steps to reproduce | Developer may respond with follow-up questions |
| Feature suggestions | Post in #suggestions with detailed reasoning | May be read and considered |
| Balance feedback | Discuss in strategy channels, be constructive | Developer monitors but may not respond directly |
| Code requests | Do NOT request codes — they are released at developer discretion | Codes appear when the developer decides |
What NOT to Do
- Do not demand release dates: The VERITY rework timeline is not publicly committed. Asking repeatedly will not change this.
- Do not harass the developer: Redie\J (the ULTRA works owner) is a single developer. Be respectful of their time.
- Do not spread unverified information: If you hear a rumor, label it as such. Do not present speculation as fact.
- Do not advertise or self-promote: The Discord is for Lurking Giants discussion, not personal channels.

| Time Zone | Peak Hours (EST) | Activity Level | What Happens |
|---|---|---|---|
| US East | 4-10 PM | Very High | Code sharing, strategy discussions, group formation |
| US West | 7 PM-1 AM | High | Evening gaming, strategy refinement |
| Europe | 2-6 AM EST | Medium | European community active |
| Asia-Pacific | 6-10 PM local | Low-Medium | Smaller but growing community |
Channel Activity by Purpose
| Channel | Most Active During | What You Will Find |
|---|---|---|
| #announcements | After game updates | Official patch notes, code drops, event announcements |
| #general | Evening hours | Casual chat, gameplay stories, questions |
| #bug-reports | After major updates | Bug reports, exploit discoveries, fix confirmations |
| #strategy | Peak gaming hours | Advanced tactic discussions, map analysis |

Discord as a Learning Resource
Beyond codes and announcements, the Discord serves as a real-time learning platform. Community members regularly share:
- Map screenshots with annotated cover positions: Players share images highlighting the best hiding spots and relocation routes
- Gameplay clips: Short videos demonstrating advanced techniques that are difficult to explain in text
- Live strategy sessions: Voice channel discussions where experienced players coach newer players through rounds
- Meta analysis: Community discussions about which Giants and strategies are most effective in the current patch
Tip for new Discord members: Use the search function before asking questions. Most common questions (how to sprint, how to redeem codes, when the rework launches) have been answered multiple times. Searching first saves you time and avoids redundant posts.
