can somebody make the developers see this?

The recent matches feature is working for me. Not sure why it doesn’t work for you (or the guy who made the video, idk if you made it or you just posted it)

Balance is being worked on (casual matchmaking)

Same for crafting system, SD made a video saying they are improving it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAebHq9PXuY

Invisible walls and bugs like the one on the ramp are something that I agree we need to be fixed. A game like Dirty Bomb should only have invisible walls in the map border (so you can’t get out of map) and on some stupid places (like the roof on Market where Fragger could jump to before it was fixed)

Btw, if you write @ and then someone’s name, it will alert them. Use this next time you want the devs’ attention:

As far as I know Nexon and Splash Damage do their best to look at as much DB related things posted across as much media types as possible. Chances are they have seen this video or will eventually see it. They may or may not comment on such things just as they may or may not comment on threads such as this. I think there is only so much they can do in a single day. Also I believe both Nexon and Splash Damage are off on the weekends so response from them soon is unlikely I think.

AlphaUT · 2016-09-11 13:02:08 UTC

Well, considering it took so long to get the bugs to be fixed, I am losing the hope for SD now.

Think about the bugs that they fixed during the part 1 and 2, How many of them were already existing for a long time?

Dysfnal1 · 2016-09-11 18:02:00 UTC

@AlphaUT DB has a tiny team compared to most games, as far as I know. They also weren’t focusing on the bugs, but event formatting and new content instead. These are important, I would like to include, but bug fixes ought to have taken priority

blonk · 2016-09-11 18:52:01 UTC

I like the music though I did turn it off eventually because I was coordinating with folk over voice comms. I’m sure a lot of srs players end up doing that anyway but if you think of it in that light, loud exciting music is annoying if you want to talk to people.

Your video is entertaining but if you want the devs to take it seriously I think you need to actually present criticism, possibly in text format along with the post.

Jostabeere · 2016-09-11 19:48:31 UTC

Your “bad things about the game” are either subjective or not important.
Like the music. If I had to choose, I’d choose DBs calm theme instead of trumpets violating my ears nonstop in Battlefield. I can hear that theme for 5 mins but not for hours.
Or “invisible walls”. They made them in certain spots and left them out not to annoy you, but to keep the balance in so you don’t get out of bounts like people used on some maps and killed you from under the ground.
And the ragequit thing is insanely dumb. Peoples actions are not a bad thing made by the devs. Also bitch please, 3K penalty for leaving a mode which is designed to joining and leaving whenever you want?

P.S. Stop complaining about bugs in a beta when devs are actively fixing them right now.

P.P.S. Trying way too hard to be funny with “memes” just damages your credibility in the video.

KUST_LunarTM · 2016-09-11 20:19:53 UTC

This guy has Shrek on VHS. Incredible.

AlphaUT · 2016-09-11 23:44:15 UTC

@Dysfnal and this goes back to the old things.

Why would they tried to create so many events when the game itself is not fully release and full of bugs. Why would they wasted time on ranked match and still no better result. Why would some bugs when they said fixed but are not actually fixed (i.e. Stopwatch incorrect draw.)

I have no information on if they started working on new balance system since last year or not. But if yes, how could they not release any I mean any information to the forum, Reddit, steam community, Facebook, or even twitter. Does that means it took a year for them to really decided to look at the balance issue ? Or does that means they ignored the issue and decided to leave it for a year ?

Those things that I remarked are not really something to do with small team but something to do with the plan for the DB. Or is there a plan ?

When the SD decided to do something such as event too many times, instead of focusing on the game itself when the game is still in BETA with A LOT OF BUGS, I would only say, Good Luck.

This video was terrible. 1/10. I want 8 minutes of my life back.

it`s not necessarily SD calling for these "events "

they have no need or reason to release any information on what they are working on till it’s “done” then it’s put up for us to test, we test it and then give qualified feedback on whether or not it works, this is called a “beta test” not a “demo” for a reason. Release could in fact be still 2 years away, doesn’t matter, we asked to be involved with a beta test, we got one, ride it out or buzz off

btw: there are also forums for the PTS peoples that have a little more involved conversations, don’t worry SD knows of ALL the concerns

AlphaUT · 2016-09-12 03:19:29 UTC

@Nail As what you said, they don’t have too show what they are working on, and that is true. However, considering the time it took for SD to bring up some “tests” for balance issue, will you say that’s something really healthy for the game? Not to mention it is NOT done.

If those are not the event, I am not so sure what else are. Special trinkets, special loadouts. Oh, and don’t forgot it took weekS to give out trinkets correctly after the event is over.

One issue a lot of old players are considering is those useless special cards. They cannot recycle it nor change it from generation 1 to 2. What SD said was it is not worthy. I mean, I can’t even recycle it when SD already confirmed they will not change them from generation 1 to 2 ? I am sure there are some players who wants to just keep all the special loadout, but there are also who wants it to either upgrade or recycle it.

I am not talking about the design of the game is bad. I am talking about the way SD trying to push out the game is something that really need to be reconsider.

That’s why I am losing the hope for it. I start playing the game since open beta start. I once hoped it will be one of the greatest and well known game in the world. I had that faith, but now I lose it.

Especially the recent issue. FPS unstable. I have experienced this issue many times already, and not just me. A lot of people tasted the pain. This causes me feel angry but most likely, helpless.

Nail · 2016-09-12 04:07:17 UTC

I got my invitation to join Dirty Bomb end of 2012, I’m ok with the progress, not sure why you feel entitled to anything except new test material

Xenithos · 2016-09-12 08:06:04 UTC

DUDE, You have a working VCR! That IS epic, no need for the Battlefield music! [spoiler]Also, BF2’s theme was better. As for DB’s music, it’s honestly just fine, something flashy and wartuned like Battlefield doesn’t fit with a game that pits a war-torn failing government in the lines of using mercenaries to do it’s dirty work against the never-ending terrorist organism that is Jackals. It just plain doesn’t. Sure, you can find something else “epic” but Epic and grand doesn’t really fit this. This is more of a lonely genre, one where two sides are literally ALL that remain, and neither uses grunts.[/spoiler]

For everything else you’ve said, Josta and Nail have pretty much hit it on the head. It’s a fun game, it’s going to have bugs, it’s in Beta, it’s being fixed. Have a for saying everything everyone else has been saying, that the Devs have already known about for pretty much forever.

As for @AlphaUT - If you think this beta has too many bugs, and that devs were prioritizing events over bugs, let me put something past you: This game actually has far fewer ‘bugs’ and glitches than many Beta games, AND this game’s bugs are usually minor and NOT game-breaking. I’ve never even seen BlackSendok’s report that you can move the EV while it’s down, and I’ve been playing since it hit beta. And as for the few bugs that exist that DO somewhat ‘ruin’ the game - Bomb plant glitches in Execution, and stopwatch (incorrect) draws and a few other minor ones: These are more recent bugs usually brought on DUE to them trying to add more CONTENT to the game through gamemodes and maps: I.e. Execution. As for the stopwatch bug, does the 500xp really affect you that much?

If the 500xp DID matter to you, let’s put it’s silly worth this way:
I have somewhere close to 900 IN-GAME-HOURS. If ALL of that were Stopwatch, and I took a 28 minute average for stopwatch times, and I won EVERY STOPWATCH GAME, that’d only be a difference of around 950k experience. Less than two levels. Yippee for two more arsenal crates after the fact that I’m already level 71? [i]Really dude, they don’t matter. Enjoy the game for what it has rather than complaining about it.[/i]
And that’s again: If you were to win, EVERY match, have the bug take the experience from you EVERY time, and you were to ONLY play stopwatch for your entire 70+ levels in DB.

Their immediate bug fix of the objectives not giving the 1k exp when doing them was much more important and it was fixed again: IMMEDIATELY. The devs are working, don’t lose faith in them.

We’re very active in keeping up with your posts here, the SD forums and also reddit I can assure you, however one thing we would like to do is just generally reply more and get back to you guys with updates. Essentially, just letting you know directly that we hear what you’re saying. We’re happy the update videos are going down well and will be continuing to get those out. Keep doing what you’re doing

Our focus at the moment is still bugs and we’ll be shifting more towards optimisation in coming updates. @AlphaUT, you said you’re losing faith in us as we fixed bugs which have been in the game since day one. Surely that should give you faith back as we are focusing on the issues which you guys have wanted and still want us to. I do agree that it was a long time coming though.

Also, now I have a hankering for a taco for lunch today now.

I’ll reveal my top secret Taco Bell recipe: Order a spicy potato soft taco, fresco style, make sure the chipotle sauce STAYS ON THE TACO. It’s amazing. You can also ask for it to be double grilled.
Ending cost? $1.00

@BlackSendok
I don’t like your attitude and I find you a bit stupid, although you got a point in some cases.
But the video is kinda hilarious, I give you that. 6 out of 10. Plus, Black Sabbath!!! 10/10
In the future maybe focus more on the fun stuff and not aspects you don’t really get.

SnakekillerX · 2016-09-14 17:29:57 UTC

Funny video… but yeah basically everything you’ve mentioned (minus the music) is being worked on. I honestly have the music turned off anyway as I like to play matches with music as well, and the main menu music would end up overlapping.

Game is still beta, so it isn’t surprising to still see bugs. The odd thing is that you would post this during a time where SD has stated they would be holding off on new content while they work on bug fixing during the course of the summer.

Another note is that basically none of the bugs you’ve shown are game breaking (minus the gun turret) but I haven’t be able to reproduce that bug in ages, I’m not sure its even a bug anymore.
