Sussy Swap Simulator Updates & Patch Notes

New Features

• New Role: Detective: Special crewmate role that can investigate one player per round to learn if they are impostor or crew. Use wisely - you only get one investigation! Detective appears in 15% of games with 8+ players.
• Voice Chat Integration: Built-in proximity voice chat now available! Talk to nearby players during gameplay, with automatic muting during voting. Enable in settings for immersive communication.
• Custom Game Modes: Create custom lobbies with modified rules including speed multipliers, custom task counts, and special abilities. Perfect for community events and creative gameplay.

Balance Changes

• Impostor Kill Cooldown: Increased from 25s to 27.5s in games with 2 impostors. This change addresses impostor win rate being slightly too high (54%) and encourages more strategic kills.
• Emergency Meetings: Each player now gets 2 emergency meeting calls per game (up from 1). Promotes more active discussion and information sharing.
• Task Bar Updates: Task bar now updates in real-time instead of delayed updates. Prevents fake task exploitation and improves crewmate coordination.

Regular Update Schedule

We maintain a consistent update schedule to keep Sussy Swap Simulator fresh and balanced. Major content updates arrive quarterly, balance patches monthly, and hotfixes are deployed within 24-48 hours of critical bug discovery.

Every update undergoes extensive testing on our Public Test Realm before live deployment. Community feedback during PTR testing directly influences final implementations. We believe in transparent development and active player collaboration.

Balance Philosophy

Our goal is maintaining 50-52% impostor win rate across all skill levels. We track millions of games monthly, analyzing win rates by player count, map, and skill tier. Balance changes target outlier statistics while preserving core gameplay feel.

We avoid knee-jerk reactions to community complaints, instead relying on comprehensive data analysis. However, if something is genuinely unfun even if statistically balanced, we adjust it. Player enjoyment always comes first.

Community Involvement

Players shape Sussy Swap Simulator's future through multiple feedback channels. Our Discord hosts weekly developer Q&A sessions, Reddit AMAs happen monthly, and suggestion surveys go out quarterly. Top-voted community ideas regularly become official features.
