Hey Suzerain fans,
We're rolling out a new patch, but this time we're trying something different. Before we push the updates live, we're going to release a version for community testing. As Suzerain has evolved, the game has become more complex with lots of branching and interconnected systems. We want to catch any issues we might miss, gather a bit more feedback, and ensure our live versions are more stable. We really value your input.
Once we've had a chance to gather your feedback and make necessary tweaks, we'll update the live build. Thanks for helping us make Suzerain even better!
If you want to support the endeavor of improving the experiences, please report your issues in our Discord forum here. We read all your feedback. Make sure to tag 3.0.9-CT in the cards you create.
Patch 3.0.9x-CT
The patch is deployed to the community testing branch. The database changes only apply to new games, and code fixes apply to on-going games.
