Repeated intro
Hey Townies! Today we are here to announce the end of Ranked Season 3, and give you a few other updates.
Ranked Season 3
We will be ending Season 3 and going into off-season for a short time (a few days) starting Wednesday, 4pm CST. You still have a couple days to climb and try to hit your Ranked goals! Season 4 will be starting not long after the end of Season 3. Season 3 of Ranked has gone about how we expected. The Jester change bumped up the win rates of evil roles, and brought down the win rates of of the Town. We did see the effects that the “Jailor Meta” had at certain tiers of play, and want to make a change for this season to help address this to a degree. The change we plan to make that seemed to get quite a bit of support from one of our Dev Update posts is that the Arsonist will no longer die to the Bodyguard, or traps when they douse someone. The Arsonist has always been one of, if not the slowest, killer in the game. Due to this we feel that time being their major weakness is appropriate. This means that no protective role in the game can stop an Arsonist from dousing, or igniting a player (outside of a Guardian Angel removing a douse). We believe that this threat of being doused, and not being able to be protected, will help prevent powerful roles from claiming early in the game, as they may be killed by the Arsonist. We will be keeping an eye on the actual effect that this change will have on the game, with ranked specifically in mind. We do not believe this change will hurt any other mode to a serious degree. With Season 3 coming to a close you will be getting rewards based on what rank you achieved. Anyone who received the rank of Gold or above will receive the Golden Doge pet.

changedHere are all the rewards broken up by each tier. Bronze 1,000 Merit Points 3 of each of the following taunts: Celebrate, RIP, Accursed, Defiled Bronze Lobby Icon
addedUnity Port Update: We have been making leaps and bounds of progress with the Unity port, it is looking absolutely fantastic. The port feels much smoother, it looks much better, and gives Town of Salem a much more polished feel. Look forward to another announcement in about a months time! We will be announcing the release date then. I have seen several people respond to our previous update post with all the screenshots from the mobile version of the port, and it has been overwhelmingly positive.
