Awesome for everything! I'm especially psyched about capital i vs lowercase L... it really helps prevent confusion!

Keep up the OUTSTANDING work you guys, love the game, the people, and everything about it/them!

Now if only there was a way to fix mafia members giving away their team mates

They are considering adding a "ranked league", where doing that would get you kicked out immediately.

I played a game with a Disguiser bug today, not sure if thats entrirely fixed!

Anyway, I love the way the game is now. Keep up the great work guys!

[RedRosser]

Great Guys can't wait to see what you continue to change and improve in the game

[townofsalem21]

Totally agreed .

Any chance of giving the Sheriff the ability to detect arsonists at some point? It's handy they can see the Serial Killers, but alas, if the random "Neutral Killing" turns out to be an arsonist, the town typically ends up taking a turn for the worse rather quickly.

Possibly, once the feature are finish we will be making sure to fix all the bugs and do balance changes like that.

[princessbinas]

Will the Ret get a buff like the Medium did?

[Omenpapa]

I'm new to the game, but since the title says "LIve patchnotes.." Shouldnt this 0.3.0 is live on the live servers? and not just on the ptr?

Also if I gain gold on the ptr, will that transfer to the live game? I know that the 5k starter PTR gold will vanish.

[datdownie]

It's not live yet as of this post. While you're waiting, you can post on the Forum Games!

[dhutch99]

Love all the hard work you guys are doing

[Misubi]

How would you access the Shop? And what's PTR?

[ploop44]

I'm guessing the B.0.3.0 will go live tomorrow since it hasn't gone live today

[Szuzzah]

There seem to be a lot of achievements and player statistics that are tracked by the game, but I don't think those are visible at all to the player. Any chance of that changing soon?

Is the new skins and pets going to become a feature of the game? Because I really don't like it. It takes away from the atmosphere of the game and the extra movement is distracting, especially in a game where you're trying to keep multiple things (wills, chat, deaths) already. I've only played a few games in the PTR but I'm finding the game less enjoyable. I really enjoy the return to lobby feature and am excited to play medium but, unfortunately, the out of place skins and extra movement might be a deal breaker for me.

The patch will be going live today!

I don't agree with you, however, I do agree with you that some of the new characters are too busy for my tastes. Especially the new yeti character, oh my god. I wish they keep future skins uncluttered. Then again, that's my 2 cents.

[PyromonkeyGG]

The yeti and snowman will be getting their idles tweaked to be less busy.

[Pri147]

Yerh it would be good if Sheriff can detect an Arsonist like the Serial killer and Retributionist should be able to bring themselves back from the dead or another fallen person if they didn't get a chance to use there role after being killed.

[Xanag]

Will the unlimited points for pt backers be available as soon as the patch goes live? I don't have them for the PTR, but I don't think I'm supposed to so that's okay I just wanted to make sure, because I kinda want everything!

I don't have my points

[RedRosser]

Yeah i was Wondering the same, when will we end up getting are Unlimited Points for ToS

[Randomshnuf]

I'm not sure if I should type this here but everything got even buggier now. The shop was gone the second time I went in after the update and no games will start after count down is over.....
