Increase Traitor Chance

Post by Cherrypone » #159606

(This is coming from someone who ONLY plays on Bagil, so if it's different on Sybil, I wouldn't know)

So, recently I've been playing and noticed something different- much less of a chance for traitor rounds, and the opposite for rounds like blob, rev, and gang. I've also noticed changeling seemed gone altogether. And so, I checked the odds for gamemodes, and there it was - traitor only had a 9.2% chance to happen, while things like nuke ops, rev, and blob had around a 17% chance.
Now, I have nothing against these gamemodes (Except blob, blob a shit), but we can all agree that that's just ridiculous, ESPECIALLY when traitor, the original and arguably one of the better gamemodes, has only a 9% chance to happen. (On a related note, maybe also increase the chance for extended - it may be meant to be rare, but 1.5% is a little too low.).

Now, what is my idea to fix this? Simple- increase traitor from 9% to 15, or maybe even 20 or 25 percent, while decreasing the ones with the highest chance to happen- ops, rev, wizard, and blob, down to something like 9% (Or lower for blob because fuck blob).

Basil has like an 18% chance for blob for some reason last I remember checking.

Game Mode Odds:
blob 15.4%
double_agents 9.2%
traitor 9.2%
extended 1.5%
gang 9.2%
nuclear 18.5%
revolution 18.5%
wizard 18.5%


Today has been a cycle of gang->rev->blob. Drawn-out rounds where everyone is dead.

Double agents is also traitor basically.
Also, lowpop is usually always traitor, it is refreshing to see something else when there are more players.

Yeah but with the hub every round is 40+ now, even at stupid hours of the night.

Read the title expecting it to talk about increasing the number of traitors in a traitor round. Kill yourself/10




Seriously though, both need to happen

18.5% revolution rolled three rev rounds in a row earlier. We need more extended, honestly; it's good to have a chance to unwind and not constantly be on edge.

I think the rates were set back in the day when we had 10 regulars to ensure we got interesting game types whenever we had the pop for it. Now that we always have the pop it is obnoxious

Traitor is trash. Buff it or keep it down.
