ooooo how exciting!
 
UPDATE #1:
  • Mutations have been toned back a bit so there won't be one selectable every round.
  • Speed 2 has been fixed (it gave you speed 3, I can't math)
  • Double emeralds have been nerfed a bit so not as many emeralds spawn
Yes, the double jump mutations allows everyone to sprint, no it's not a bug.

Hello all,

Today we are releasing an update to Murder which should add some variety to our already great list of maps. We have added mutations!

What Are Mutations?
Mutations are extra additions to the game which will add special mechanics which do not normally appear in games. They are chosen randomly from a list, and are enabled on a per-round basis. They have the potential to add/remove items, change the look and feel of the map, and even add secondary objectives.

Which Mutations Are There?
The current mutations are as follows:
  • Double Emeralds: Every emerald pickup is doubled!
  • Double Jump: Everyone can jump super high, even the murderer!
  • Gun Game: Everyone (except the murderer) has a gun!
  • Speed: Everyone has speed II for the entire round!
We are also accepting your feedback/ideas on the current and on new mutations. Feel free to suggest some in the suggestions subform and leave feedback on the current ones below.

I Like Murder How It Is!
We are sure some of you are skeptical about changes to one of our core games, and I understand. That is why during our beta stage, mutations will only be enabled on one of the three maps selectable during voting. If you don't want mutations, simply vote for a map without them enabled.

The update will be live across the network shortly, so hop in a game soon and let us know what you think!

Thanks, and enjoy!

I like the idea so that murder doesn't get all dull after playing a long time...

Some of them I am not a big fan of because of certain reasons. These reasons include hacking for being less noticeable and hacking such as xray will be more advantageous in the mutation speed. Yet all in all I bet these will all be taken care of in time and can make the game take a new turn instead of the dull repeative motions.

Just interested does the mutation gun game have any emeralds spawns? As murderer is already hard for some players and adding this just turns away new players from liking murderer.
Doesn’t that sort of defeat the point of double emeralds?
Do you mean the mutation or the upgrade...
Basically every player has the upgrade now except for new players so adding the mutation makes it a little balanced.

As the the mutation it self yes yet instead of it taking 5 it takes 3(x2 = 6) so depending on how low they put the spawn rate it varries in usefulness such as if it was 50% instead of the average 100% it would be disadvantages because before it neededs 10 in the current thingy and 5 in the new meaning it stays the same and the system means nothing besides a few happenings such as gettings 3 emeralds in a row or rarely getting any emeralds. but raising it to like 60% so 9 is needed and 4.5 is needed now. Which if you know what I am saying it might make sense.

+With also it will be a little rng as it is right now and a little more controlable rng. And forgot to mention in high emerald areas it will be easy to get a gun such as dino mines I have a spot that gives access to about 8 emerald spawns which if it is 50% normally 3 to 4 would be there so now it would be about 1.75 emeralds there. And if I get 1 more along the way easy gun. Its controlled yet not controlled in some places. Before it was complete rng and you needed 5 at most now only 3 are needed and rng can be a little controlled. Yeeeeee I probally make no sense yet I love how they did this it makes the game more skill based than some randy geting 50% double emeralds and easily getting a gun. Now its more skill based in locating emeralds and such.

Blehh I am sorry I love how they did this. <3 can't stop loving the update as it really improves the game play over all and yeeaaa

...
As well I am worried that v10s will be likely to happen more often and makes the murderer limited in its options which changes game play a lot.

This reminds me of the bonus games they did on Murder Mystery 2 from ROBLOX back when I still played that lol

I'm excited for this. I think it'll definitely add some flare to Murder.
 
how to easily find the murderer
In all honestly sniping is possible from so many places so killing a person straight off makes them suspect 2 people you and dead person.

3 things could happen (at once or seperate)
1. They are all in a group or some stranglers that I can kill and make them suspect.
2. There is a hider somewhere
3. Camping

...
Of course it makes new players more aware they need to do stuff and be sneaky instead of the normal hit and run situation. Many of the mutations involve a certain way of doing things

For example speed includes dodging and camping for murderer... double emeralds simuliar to gun game which is as above...jump boost and sprint mean random bys pop ups and random murderer pop ups. ;3 just though of all the abussive ways I can use this so excited oml. I love it
 
This’ll be fabulous! I can’t wait to test it out. :)
 
Never thought this idea before, hope Murderer gets a major improvement!
 
I was waiting for something like this to happen for a while now as it was such a great idea for murder! So excited to play it <3

Normal murder games don't work properly now.... you can't collect emeralds because it keeps saying (0/5) and it disappears from your inventory if you right or left click... :(
 
The same murder lobby gives you the same mutations over and over again too :/
