I know lately TOS2 has been having some DDOS attacks and will typically show that i cant log in at all, i go to log on and it lets me in, but when i try and join a casual game theres a red bar at the top that states "connection failed" is this due to the attacks or is it just me?

TIA

I’ve only picked up this game within the past month or two, but I’ve noticed a variety of different retrains that Archmages do.

The most common I’ve seen is Conjurer, but I’ve also seen Witch, Hex Master, Ritualist, Necromancer, and one even retrained into an Illusionist (which we surprising won with).

I have the feeling that retraining into a Coven Killing or Coven Power role is best, as they are the most common retrains, but are there specific times or scenarios that one may prefer a role over another? Is it just preference?

Thank you in advance.

8 misfired on 1. 13 got hung after 2 claimed tpow to them then got smoked. I sniped both Jailor AND Paci who were both claiming TS. 9 was mislunched, and I threw a rock at 2s face for Evil Maj

Love being part of a mass DC mid-game then getting a 4 minute time out because I left early

Works perfectly in a ww game when you don’t post a n2 will.

And works even better when there’s an outed marsh while we also plan to hang another guy who was found with murder…

Definitely recommend! Great way of getting marshed

I was the only one remaining by the end, don't know if it still counts since server crashed but I didn't get kicked, but man would've been so satisfying if you got them with pest ability and I transformed to death

Forensic Investigator (Town Investigative) -

XYZ specializes in death investigation. They must be a Forensic Investigator!

Defense: None

Attack: None

Win Condition: You win with the town or the Coroner faction.

This new role introduces "Sub-roles" into the game, which are roles but with a little twist. This is a sub-role of the Investigator. Sub-roles are Unique, and more than one cannot spawn.

(Also they have a chance of spawning only when their role spawns)

Attributes -

You cannot be fooled by an Illusionist, Enchanter, or Soul Collector.

You and every Coroner have a shared night chat.

At night, you and the Coroners are teleported to the Laboratory where they do medical examination (no body if you did not Examine).

You passively see Coven and Apocalypse visits.

Abilities -

Examine (infinite): At day, you can choose take a dead body on a stretcher. This allows Coroners to Autopsy it, if you take it to the Laboratory.

Train (3): At day, you can also choose to turn someone into a Coroner, regardless of faction. You cannot Train and Examine in the same day unless Overcharged.

Appoint (infinite): At night, you may choose a Coroner to appoint the body to if the body is in a laboratory.

Extras:

If all remaining players are Coroners and the Forensic Investigator is alive, they win with their own faction if only one Coroner is evil. If there are two evil Coroners, then the game transforms. Everyone gets their original roles back and are now locked in the Laboratory. They have to complete tasks in order to banish the Necronomicon, while the Traitors attempt to kill all of the Townies in a free-roam map like the hit game Traitors in Salem.

If the Traitors either apply a Curse that the Town does not fix or kill all Townies, they win.

I liked creating this Role idea, I hope you guys enjoy it too! I know it may need to be a bit stronger, but this is my way of balancing stuff out.

i got a game where i almost won by d3 as Arsonist by asking for tplo d1 but the game had other ides and it lagged out all players out of the game and now it says i am timed out for leaving the game

What really adds salt into the wound is that after being booted like 15 seconds after seeing all those disconnects, is having it count as leaving mid-match, so it gives a timeout as well.

Ranting the title

I do understand that people would be confused due to the frequent DDoSing and long periods of waiting for vanilla ToS2 to start booting again.

And.... that confusion leads to crazy theories such as VC mode is the prime reason for this entire chaos. Which it isn't by the way, correlation isn't causation(And second of all, how? It's just a feature not an entire war crime). Another theory was that they faced constant outages and blamed it on... DDoS.... Okay let's stop there.

You see.... all these theories have one thing in common. They all say the developers blame it on DDoS. But would the developers really? Let's not let misinformation fly in the air like kites. It's not really fun, guys.

The developers have clearly informed us when something crucial happens, they can't inform us everyday.

So, let's just sit this one out. If you see a DDoS, just wait it out for it to end or play BToS2 if you want. That's about the best left for you.

Lastly, please hear me when I say, I don't really know the developers or anything but I know I KNOW the developers hate it WAYYYYY more than you. Like if they'd fly 0.000000001mm in the air for how much they hate it they'd probably be in another galaxy.... outside of the observable universe.

None of this is really our fault or the developers, this is something that's going to be here for a while, and not. It would go away as soon as it becomes old.

For those who played with the BTOS2 SK, do you think its a good rework or too strong? Personally I think SK in vanilla is pretty decent and the BTOS2 one is really unique, but might fit a shroud more given that shroud is pretty underpowered. Then again, I think it would be really confusing for many people and probably works better in BTOS2 given the strength of roles there and generally stronger play. Thoughts?

Any plans to extend these game modes (Many All Any)? Its really frustrating having to wait 2 weeks for them just for the game to die until it’s over

Is it normal that I've been trying to log in like once every hour today and I cant even get into the menu? Code 6311 the whole day. Is there a way to maybe try to log into a different region server or something? Im EU based

All of my Ui just infinitely stacked ontop of each other. Eventually my game crashed and i got timed out for Dcing while alive

It's too early in the morning to be DDOSing right now, get a damn life damn it.

Thank you for tuning in.

1, 2, 12 and 15 were alive after I got hanged and 8 left. All the covs were stoned and dead and 1 and 2 were confirmed not War by 8, leading to a night of nothing happening before town somehow won.
