Under New Management: Testing for All
Posted by The Office Clerk on February 22, 2024 at 2:00 PM
Silence, you objectionable scoundrels! You've really done it now...
For those unaware, this is your Lawbot Office Clerk speaking! Recently assigned to your jurisdiction, my legion of Lawbots and I have been too reserved with throwing the book at your lot to have formally addressed you thus far. Not to mention the number of Bottom Feeders I've had to drag in after-hours to re-alphabetize and re-categorize every last bookshelf you've left in your wake!
Nevertheless, I wish to share with you a most resounding development to us Supervisors’ widespread distribution, currently active among all Cog Departments. This morning, the Chief Justice approved an application in which our plan will be taken to the next stage: further expansion of our paradigm-shifting strategies to more Districts -- across even the furthest corners of Toontown.
While this technically means all Toons can soon have limited access to our revamped facilities, I cannot personally guarantee the safety of those who may choose to do so. We, the Supervisors, are certainly open for further opportunities to educate Toons on our newfound strive for order and disdain for Silliness.
I’ll be expecting to review your testimony and affidavits shortly. And I might suggest that you keep your infamously funny business as its own… separate issue in the process.
Playtest 3 Schedule & Launcher Download
Friday, February 23 @ 2:00 PM PST - Sunday, February 25 @ 11:59PM PST
This weekend, playtesting will be open to all by taking part in an in-game PlayLine. This might sound familiar to those of you who’ve been around for the long haul! Players are welcome to download the Test Server launcher now, but keep in mind you will not be able to log-in to the Test Server until it opens up on Friday, February 23 @ 2:00 PM Toontown Time (PST).
Once the playtest is open, you can log in to the Test Server launcher and get in line to playtest Under New Management, first come first serve. When you’ve waited your turn, you’ll be able to play for up to 3 hours. After that, you’re welcome to take a break or get back in line and do it all over again! Good luck, have fun, and we hope to see you there!
Playtest Patch Notes
Based off feedback and interactions from last week's playtest, we've altered some of the changes put in place from last week's Patch Notes! You may take a read of these Updated Patch Notes before your playtest, but it would be most appreciated to hold off any reactionary feedback until you've tried it out in-game yourself!
Informed feedback is much more valuable than initial reactions, so we encourage you all to first try out what we've put together to see how we made this update work. This all really helps us make Toontown better, and we can't thank you enough for taking the time to share your thoughts after trying out our playtest.

Sorry! You must log in before you can post a comment.
Let’s see what our fellow Toons think about the new update! Hopefully it will be very Toony!
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you You
Can't wait to try out the rebalances, I really wanna see how the sound nerf plays out. I feel kinda bad for the Bottom Feeders though. Maybe I'll try to keep the chaos directed at the Cogs instead of the surroundings.
Well well well
THIS NEW UPDATE IS SO HYPE!
Im excited!!!! I cant wait too test it out!!!
OK, now this is epic
It is time.
Guess I’ll be putting on my Red cape to try out the test server. So excited
Cant wait!
It's time a new fresh coat of paint has touched the color of Toontown Rewritten! :D
LETS GOOO :D
this is gonna be a unite cds menace, but man im quite excited a little. still hate da sound carry capacity tho.
Well, it's finally time to see what this is like. This will be interesting...
YES! totally see you all there
:)
I can’t wait! I’ll be bringing my friends! :D
I never actually enjoyed Lawbots all that much, admittedly. Compared to all other cog types, Lawbots were always the most sternest, if not the most scariest, cogs on the corporate ladder. Now with this new Office Clerk coming into fruition, it seems they'll be studying their lawbooks a bit more closely now. That is if they don't throw the books out all together and write new ones. I wonder if they have The Vice President's Book on How To Spot A Toon In Disguise, I hear that's a good read. Well, either way, if I ever have to go to the Law Offices again, I'll be sure to be checking out what new books this Office Clerk has put on the shelves. That is if the Office Clerk doesn't revoke my library card. Hurrah for The Office Clerk, hope the Club President will come around with a new letter soon.
I just hope that 107 laff and 3 level 7 gags is enough to beat all the new under new management cogs lol
Can’t wait!! See you all tomorrow!
I love you the best of all have fun
Yay, it's time! See you all in-game tomorrow!!! <3
Woahe :0
Can't wait to bust 'em up!
I ABSOLUTELY CAN'T WAIT FOR TODAY!!! I AM HONORED TO BE APART OF HISTORY!
Can’t wait to see what it’s all about…getting kinda boring these days in there and sometimes it’s to hard to play certain things! Makes it boring!
Can not wait to see what is new and try it out
Wow! I can't wait to be destroyed by the Office Clerk!
can't wait to throw some pies at new cog faces !
OMG I'm excited! I hope they release this soon after the playtesting!
Pardon me, but could you clarify whether the playline will include the ability to schedule a time? I'd like my three hours to start when I'm able to make the most of them, not while I'm at lunch or dinner, but this post doesn't explicitly mention whether that part of the system will be making a return.
Oooooo! All aboard the hype trolley everyone!! Here's hoping the playline will have mercy on our souls. :P
So COOL!
Ya'll must be overrun with toons trying to play-test. I can't even log in to the new launcher. Says : Not authorized for this environment." Please help, if I'm not doing it right or something.
Can't login to play testing :-( pop up message "not authorized for this environment" HELP!
It's not letting me log in.
Not authorized for this environment!
The Supervisors are in for a rough ride. They'll never get the pie stains cleaned off the walls!
Just tried to log into the test server didnt let me in:(
Please help! I am trying to log in and it says that I am not authorized! How do I get in line or schedule a time to play? It won't let me do anything on the launcher except login!
We give this the MOOSE Stamp of Approval!
I would like to see v2.0 in factories not only in cog golf courses.
Ok, I think the server may be having issues since when I went in the launcher, it said that they are trying to get the server up still.
well this seems cool
I just took down the Factory Foreman and Mint Auditor (both factories and both mints) and they were GREAT! Can't wait to take down the Office Clerk and the Vice President!
Yeah, you WISH, you Office Jerk! I'm gonna send these supervisors ROLLIN' out the door!!!
liked the different puzzles for different mints
Is my Laff way too low to do this safely? Yes. am I going to attempt one of the new Factories anyways? OF COURSE!
Yippie, testing 4 all! :D
I'm so hyped for this!
After playing through the play test I really enjoyed the experience and changes made to the facilities and the music and more it’s soo much better than before no longer do you have to spend hours upon hours of cog promotion gains and waste soo much hours on one facility *cough cough back nine cough cough Did have some district resets and one crash during it but over all it’s decent
I just finished fighting the Mint Supervisor! Overall, I'd say performance and presentation were great! I haven't picked up on anything that could be improved in this update. I'm excited to see the update drop soon!
Verily, I ne'er found merriment in the realm of Lawbots, I confess. In comparison to all mechanical brethren, Lawbots were ever the sternest, perchance even the most fearsome, gears upon the corporate ascent. Yet now, with this fresh Office Clerk emerging into being, 'tis apparent they shall peruse their legal tomes with greater diligence. Anon, one wonders if they shall discard the current volumes altogether and inscribe new ones. Prithee, dost they possess The Vice President's Tome on How To Discern A Toon In Camouflage? Methinks 'tis a tome of merit. Well, in any case, should I find myself once more within the precincts of the Law Offices, I shall assuredly peruse the new volumes this Office Clerk hath placed upon the shelves. That is, unless the Clerk sees fit to annul my library privilege. Huzzah for The Office Clerk, mayhap the Club President shall dispatch a missive anon.
The playtest game was great. an extra gag barrel the Sellbot factory [Lure]. :-) But the disappointment is that strong toons only get 2 Foghorns instead of 3. :-(
Oops! I accidentally knocked over a few more bookshelves on my way out! Anyway, back to my silliness spree...
This going to be AMAZING!!!
This is gonna be AMAZING!
am i the only one who doesn’t really care about types of cogs lol i just fight to fight unless i have a task
I like ALL OF IT
What an incredible update! Seriously, pat yourselves on the back! The new supervisor fights are incredible. It pumps new life into the game. Makes facilities less grindy, and more challenging. I really like the gag rebalancing, by the way. Anything to encourage more diverse gag usage and less monotonous battles.
When will the chairman be released??
Cool
When will it go live on regular server?
Big Bummer can't hold as much sound gags like the TTO game. :-(
SO EXCITED FOR THIS!!!
