Sub Rosa News

A quick update of some things we’ve been trying out:


We're making some optimizations to the net code.


We're improving player movement, including tightening up how we handle momentum when players turn while moving.


We're experimenting with changing some controls, including having Z to slide and T to cycle through the Yell/Whisper/Normal talk volumes.


We're trying out having briefcases be purchasable.


We're testing out a new gamemode, Versus. In this gamemode, three suitcases are spawned in the middle of the map and two teams fight over them.


If you spot any gameplay bugs, exploits, or map glitches, please let us know! We’d love to include the fix in a future build. Our report form is located here:

A quick update of some things we’ve been trying out:


We are re-adding the second phone into each base, so teams will be able to better communicate amongst themselves. Currently, the second phone’s number is COMPANY PHONE NUMBER + 1. Example: Monsota’s first phone is 2222 and second phone is 2223.


We are currently experimenting with ways to re-add the grabbing system.


We’re trying out ways to optimize and smooth out the network code, to alleviate some of the occasional instances of player warping and teleporting.


If you spot any gameplay bugs, exploits, or map glitches, please let us know! We’d love to include the fix in a future build. Our report form is located here:

Last week, we pushed the new Sub Rosa Alpha .35 build! This was a pretty large update, including some control changes, HUD improvements, multiplayer quality-of-life additions, and gameplay tweaks. We’re currently monitoring the build to make sure it’s running smoothly.


We understand some of the new controls are a big change from the previous control scheme. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we find the ideal default controls for Sub Rosa. Further down the road, we intend to add keybind remapping for those who wish to customize their controls.


The grabbing system was deactivated in this build. We intend to revisit it in a future release.


If you have any feedback on the build, please feel free to hop onto the Sub Rosa Discord and drop us a note: https://discord.gg/subrosa
