Subjects,

We hope you’re enjoying life in the Wild West. This release brings a much-requested update to the chat system, shaped with help from the community.

Quick Chat

The suspicion system has been expanded, so when you suspect another Subject, you’ll now have the option to make a claim explaining why you think they’re suspicious. These claims, along with general messages, will appear in a new chat box populated by players across the Ritual Site.

This should make communication within the group clearer and more engaging. Just remember: not everything you read will be true, so keep your wits about you and stay on your toes.

The available options to claim about other Subjects:

Infected

{Subject} Is Infected!
{Subject} Is Infected! They are not performing Tasks.
