14th December Dev Round-Up [Update Info & What The Dickens?]


(watsyurdeal) #21

[quote=“Juan518;124253”][quote=“Watsyurdeal;124250”][quote=“CCP115;124246”]Now this, THIS is what we need.

Time to play 60 hours of Dirty Bomb. I’m gonna need some more steam cred for those trinkets.

Maybe you took a little… just a teensy bit of inspiration from Blacklight? Either way this is a great way to do monetisation, I’m glad to see SD has gone this way.[/quote]

Now if only they borrowed recoil patterns for every weapon…you know, like we already have with some guns but not others…SERIOUSLY SPLASH WHY U DO DIS TO ME?[/quote]

LOL you ask for the recoil patterns a lot. (agree)[/quote]

Because it’s a concept of game design we all grew up with, repetition. Repetition allows us to learn through common patterns, aka, a recoil pattern that allows us to fairly compensate for recoil and where our shots will go.

It just makes sense to me, I can’t explain it any better than that.

There NO new maps, nor mercs in the next update. It will be majorly a fine tuning (balance/fixes) and “possibly some other things”.

Best part.

Can I expect more things again?

May be I’m playing way too much Dirty Bomb, but as time is right in the middle of December, it feels like year passed after the recent November Fine-Tuning for me.

Attention on Thunder is great, but please focus on the stuffs like player number auto-balancing, Watsyurdeal’s fixing RNG recoil pattern, Timik’s noticeable change compared to M4 , and Blishlok too. It would be nice…


(darlingClaymore) #23

Awesome, so its like stickers in csgo!? 45 hours only? Ez PZ, I play like 90 hours already cause I have no life… lol


(ThiagoJaqueta) #24

Ohhhh That cute coal and snowman -
SO CUTEEEEE! I WANT IT, AND I WANT IT NOW!


(blisteringOwlNest) #25

I wonder what kind of effects the trinkets will have. Would be awesome if the lantern glowed and the snow man left a small trail. So many possibilities for future items! SO MUCH WANT!!!


(RyePanda) #26

They are cumulative, so it’s 60 hrs for the snowman over 15 days. So 4 hours everyday.

Edit: 4 hrs in a match, every day. Also, will private matches count? @RazielWarmonic @Missmurder


(Backuplight) #27

I love the idea of the trinkets - something different, rewarding play time, brilliant overall. As someone who is travelling to visit family over Christmas, the 60 hours sounds horribly steep though. I’m off work for the majority of the event and I’m still not sure I’ll make it. If anything, I’d argue the event could do with being another week longer.

Whatever though - I can live without getting the snowman, really pleased to see these additions coming. A big step in the right direction.


(Drcipres) #28

Trinkets with no RNG implemented ? Is it you Splash Damage ?


(bontsa) #29

Can you hear it? It is the sound virtual blood flowing in hundreds of e-penile, erecting uncontrollably around the globe due to the overflow of cosmetics to show off.

Matchmaking changes sound really nice! I can bear a couple of absolute stomps from e.g v586 or other full-teams every time a season resets everybody to no-rank level if we get more solid algorhytm overall :wink:

(Rewolf) #31

This sounds like a really nice step in the good direction. And the trinkets! Must have…now!


(Drcipres) #32

I feel like 45 h is way to much, maybe 35 or 40


(Mr-Penguin) #33

Cosmetics that you can actually see on yourself and an incentive to play comp?

Welp, time to actually play my first comp game…


(RyePanda) #34

It is cumulative, 3 + 12 + 45 = 60 hrs of time in a match


(DMaster2) #35

@RazielWarmonic how much is long each season?


(Faraleth) #36

@Drcipres as I said in the original post, the total is 60 hours :3 it’s 3 + 12 + 45 for all :wink:


(Faraleth) #37

@DMaster2 they cannot say right now, how long each season will be :frowning: sorry!

That better count all of the waiting to get into a match because that’s quite a portion itself.

Watcha mean, I will play 60 hours over the time and get my trinkets correct? XD

Private matches will not count. No idling!
