DEV STREAM ROUND-UP: 25TH JANUARY 2016

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

Were you aiming to find out something else? Was there something that you’re turtley dying to ask? Check out the FAQ here: http://forums.dirtybomb.nexon.net/discussion/17544/dev-nexon-stream-faq

General:

  • The next update should be coming out this week - however if there are any major bugs it may be delayed until next week in order to ensure a working build is released.
  • Upon release of the next update, there will be a map “test weekend”, for both Dockyard and Gallery.

Dockyard:

  • Dockyard is an Objective and Stopwatch map.
  • The first objective is “Escort the EV”.
  • The second objective is “Plant C4”
  • Dockyard is on par in linearity with the older maps (such as Underground and Bridge) and less confusing than Dome. It offers some good side routes with tactical advantages, without the “maze” feel people hated from Dome.
  • Secondary objectives appear far more useful in this map, than prior ones, with examples such as extending bridges and lowering/raising platforms for new access routes, rather than just opening or closing doors.
  • The map has been lengthened significantly since it was accidently leaked in the game files by the addition of a second objective.

Gallery:

  • Gallery is an Execution map.
  • The map uses the same design philosophy as the 2 original Execution maps - such as the travel time between point A and B.
  • It appears that the map has better marking for indicating bomb sites A and B, within the map itself. Whether these are temporary for the blockout, or will be used in the final build, is unknown.

Well Chapel is my favorite map and Bridge is second, hopefully the new EV map will be joining my top 3.

@Dawnrazor I absolutely love the EV maps too, and from what I’ve seen of it, I think it might be the best EV escort yet… :wink:

I can’t wait to try that new objective map. We really needed something new to run in. :slight_smile:

I don’t “hate” the maze aspect of Dome. If you get lost playing Dome you’re another four letter word that starts with D :stuck_out_tongue: I dislike that it has a lot of nothing out in the middle of nowhere that could have easily been cut to make a more natural flowing DB map while also still having the trick jumping design that the current maps don’t really have. If Dome was trimmed down while retaining a lot of what makes it good it would easily be one of my favorite maps due to all the mobility that you can use to your advantage.

Hey SD, how about giving us map source files and assets and the ability to launch them locally in game. We could easily tell you through a re-make what we want :slight_smile:

Maybe for Valentine’s day Javelin could be released so she could be with Nader?


(IcySkyz) #15

as someone who personally (for no real good reason) hates execution, its exciting to know that a new objective/stopwatch map is coming out


(Sithas) #16

Ah finally new maps coming, i cant wait to try these new maps out in the next test weekend.


(SereneFlight) #17

Well, for the first time I don’t feel like burning down every house after reading a round-up.


(Tanker_Ray) #18

Any clues for fine-tuning?

Thunder and Phantom etc.


(blisteringOwlNest) #19

@RyePanda I would love Javelin to be Naders wife xD
