15th September Nexon Stream Round-Up


(Faraleth) #1

Remember, as always, unless specifically stated as confirmed, please take everything with a grain of salt.

Got a burning question that’s missing? Was I blinded and missed something that you’re turtley dying to ask? Check out the FAQ here: http://forums.dirtybomb.nexon.net/discussion/17544/dev-nexon-stream-faq

News:

  • We will have news on the next “Fine Tuning” update by the end of today.
  • The next merc release will definitely be “around the 30th September”. (Do remember, this is subject to change if major issues occur with the update)
  • ABOUT THE LEAKED LOADOUT CARDS – The ones recently leaked via Reddit and on the official forums, MissMurder has confirmed these will NEVER be in the game. They were conceptual pieces that were previously planned (ie. Diamond was the old top-tier, but replaced by cobalt – and the others were cancelled promotional ones).
  • Logitech ones may not be cancelled due to the cases in the game-files. However cards like Diamond definitely are.
  • Confirmed: The next merc has an R in their name. (This means, Stoker, Turtle or Thunder)
  • It is unlikely we will ever be able to host servers from our own PC. If this does happen, it will be a long time in the future.
  • It is also unlikely we will ever be able to rent public servers. (Note: Servers for events/tournaments are supported by Nexon, however private servers are to “take the place” of renting public servers)
  • Question: Will we see Dome before the end of October? – “Dome will be in the game before the end of the year. End of October may be a little ambitious, but it’s not impossible.” (Looks like October/November is a likely time-frame for Dome)
  • Steam achievements are being worked on. No ETA for this, however, other than “further down the line”.
  • Mercs are not being released in terms of when they were last in the game. – For example, just because Javelin and Turtle were not in the closed beta tests, doesn’t mean they will be last. In fact, it may be quite the opposite.
  • MissMurder talked about a possible costume contest (for Halloween). No confirmation on this for sure, though.

Possible changes/updates:

  • MissMurder said she will look into reducing the private server minimum to 5 so that a competitive team can mess around in private servers. (Shoe also took note yesterday – hopefully this will be looked into)
  • Question: Is it true you will be giving Arty an indoor ability? – “I think it’s only fair, considering Skyhammer’s.”
  • Question: Why are Skyhammer’s gloves black on the model, however they are white in first-person, and Stoker’s gloves are white on the model, but black in first person? – “It was a booboo…” (Best answer, ever.)
  • It is unlikely we will EVER be able to earn exp/credits from private matches – due to how easily it could be abused.
  • Proxy’s mines will never be able to be stuck to the walls or roof, simply because that imposes on Fletcher’s ability.
  • It is a known bug that the server browser says there is a free slot in a server, but when you try to join, there is not. This should be resolved and fixed soon.

Extra info:

  • Guest: Radrodo – GM.
  • Radrodo would ship Kira and Phantom, while MissMurder would ship… Fletcher and Fletcher.
  • “Vassili likes Nader… But Nader doesn’t like him.” – Radrodo, 2015.Remember, as always, unless specifically stated as confirmed, please take everything with a grain of salt.
  • I FINALLY RUDDY WON <3

If you asked a question on my question request thread this Sunday and don’t see it here, fear not! These are only the points covered tonight; there are more streams this week.

Enjoy… Until next time! #roundup

Nice job as always.

So much time left for Dome. q.q
I want it, naaawwh!


(MarsRover) #5

Oh god it’s not gonna be Stoker… again. :disappointed:

@Faraleth - rigged :wink:


(watsyurdeal) #6

How exactly would we give Arty an indoor ability?

Shoot the laser targeter just shoot an artillery strike marker or something?

Actually, that could be interesting…shoot a dart at someone and watch them be bombarded constantly with strikes…oh Jesus.


(JesseKomm) #7

Thank you for another amazing round-up, @Faraleth! Once again you’ve proven yourself as a pillar of our community! Interesting points being talked about here, will be eager to see which of those mercs is released(I’m excited for all three at this point) and if it truly around September 30th(Which seems really close since Phoenix release). Overall very great work done here, and keep it up! <3 :cookie:

if you point the laser at their eyes they’re temporarily blinded
a poor man’s flash grenade :smiley:

-By the end of this day??? what???
-Well that takes out Javelin and Aimee but not like they were expected to come out, this “hint” is no good really
-So no, no CA cards and diamond cards. This could just be a cover up but what about the obsidians that were there?
-Ah Dome, well atleast we have a more of a date then speculation.
-I wonder what capability it will have, maybe it is an exploding laser but I highly doubt it.
-No one gets Fletcher except Fletcher!
-“Booboo” wow, great fucking answer @MissMurder glad you are the community manager (JK <3 you)
-Grats on winning

Nice round but yet again I won’t give you an insightful cause I am a salty bastard.

Question: Is it true you will be giving Arty an indoor ability? – “I think it’s only fair, considering Skyhammer’s.”

Pretty important thing IMO : if Arty gets something to use his ability indoors, Kira should also get one. She’s also limited to outdoor as far as I know.


(SteelMailbox) #11

Talk to @Kirays about that, I am sure he has something to say about that saying.

Aim the laser directly in enemy’s eyes and they’ll have a terrible headache the next day


(Faraleth) #13

@Eox I’m fairly certain they were talking about Kira too. :slight_smile:

Everyone is avoiding the simple solution here… bunker buster! The artillery shell that comes in can travel through buildings but gets reduced damage for the number of map geography it travels through… easy peasy. Also not able to be abused since it’s a precision strike so you’ll need to still aim it well and can’t use through walls.


(misspo) #15

It is also unlikely we will ever be able to rent public servers.
Like the privious answere :slight_smile: “you will have a surprise stuff” to “not gonna happen bra”.

At least some thing would be nice:
“Create map contest” where you guys give us the possibility to do maps and the best (or top) will be put in the game + extra money for creators.


(chicHouse) #16

i found one place where its possible:) nice head catch! :slight_smile:


(APRenpsy) #17

The funny thing is you can glitch Proxy mines onto a wall.

Congrats on winning a merc :v
