Town of Salem 2 News

We are excited to bring you the Town of Salem 2 Patch R1.2.68 - Maintenance & QoL! In mid-September we, Digital Bandidos, announced some of our plans for the Town of Salem games. Our commitment from the start is that we are invested in making sure we take care of the games & the community.

When reviewing game feedback from players we saw there was an opportunity to bring some quality of life changes to Town of Salem 2 as well as make some backend changes to prepare for future features & update existing features.

Please review the patch notes below ⤵️


- 'Who Died & How?' phase now shows role icons next to role names
- Role Mentions in chat can now display a role on any faction
- Rolecard Popups can now display a role on any faction
- Optimized load times between the Home, Shop & Customization Menus
- All gamemodes except Custom will now expire once the match ends

- The Endgame Timer panel will no longer overlap the Endgame Results panel


- Backend Update: Preparations for gamemode stats
- Backend Update: Battle Pass System Removed - We're taking down the entire battle pass system for the time being to fix issues & outages caused by it. We are also revamping the battle pass system to make it more valuable & flexible for players. We'll share more details on this in future updates.
- Compensation for Server Outage Issue: We appreciate your patience & understanding while we needed to diagnose the server outages to be able to resolve them. All ToS2 accounts have been granted 1040 Town Points as compensation.
- Discord Server: The vanity URL for the Town of Salem Games Official Discord server has been updated to be discord.gg/townofsalem (previously townofsalem2) to reflect the server reorganization changes. Please make sure to update this if you have posted the link to the Discord server anywhere.

[h3]Regarding Game Updates:[/h3]

We have been diligently working on our plans for the games in terms of content, new features, balance changes, bug fixes & more. At this time we aren’t quite ready to release an official roadmap, BUT we have a list of some of items you can expect to see on it. Please stay tuned for the roadmap release soon.

[h3]Partial Roadmap Points:[/h3]
QoL improvements for ToS1 & ToS2
- Block system, backend updates to the reporting system

QoL improvements for ToS1
- UI updates & other ToS1 mod implementations (chat effect tags, best friend system, font size picker, UI recoloring, expanding chat size, colored nametags on map, will templates, chat names colors matching role color, refreshed endgame screen, town traitor clock, etc.)

QoL improvements for ToS2
- Discord integration, game modes revamped, reputation system, achievements & stats

[h3]Other Key Points:[/h3]

Suspending ToS2 Battle Pass System
- We are bringing down the Battle Pass until we can get the right content plan, pricing, and strategy to support the effort while bringing the most value to players. We are actively listening to the community, mods and dev team, regarding these changes.
- Please note that the UI/UX may be wonky, because we decided to just rip it out, due to this.
- The current Battle Pass rewards are not exclusive to that Battle Pass (Please don’t panic buy!!).

ToS2 Season 4 delayed for Review
- Looking at balance changes, opportunities for a new role & more. We will share as soon as we have an update here.

Traitors in Salem
- TiS is still being reviewed by our teams. We will share as soon as we have an update here.

ToS2 Mobile
- ToS2 Mobile issues including store issues are still being reviewed by our teams. We will share as soon as we have an update here. We are looking to get ToS2 mobile available again ASAP.

ToS1 Facebook Issues
- ToS1 Facebook Login Issues issues are still being reviewed by our teams. We will share as soon as we have an update here.

ToS2 Server Issues
- The latest server maintenance was partially related to working on these outages & giving us tools & more information to resolve them. We are hoping to use these tools & information to reduce outages to only planned outages.

--------------------

In the meantime - soon we will be distributing a community survey for players to fill out if they wish. We’ll share information on this as soon as we can.

Again, we want to thank everyone for their patience as we are getting settled in here. We really appreciate all of the feedback & ideas that the community continues to share.
