Did SD announced the possibility of unofficial servers somewhere in the future?

Is this true?
Because i hear pepole saying both ingame and in the forums that it will be possible.

And i’f this is the case, will custom maps be a possibility?

They plan to make rental servers available, but there’s no schedule or real proper plans about it which would make it possible in the near future. This has been requested by the community for a very long time now, we’ll see what they chose to do with this. I personally hope they’ll make a clear statement about this when they’ll make the game leave the beta state.

On the custom map side, they already made a clear statement about it : There’s no plans about building a sdk or any custom content tools. They assured that it was a sub-zero priority which has an infinitesimal chance to happen, even at the end of the road.

Thanks for clearing that up to me. @BMontiel

SD did not say anything about it because SD has nothing to do with DB servers. They all come from Nexon. But yes, Nexon changed their minds said they will come in the future after telling us they will never come a longer time ago.

@Jostabeere 20 bucks a month for a server? :stuck_out_tongue:

Atleast not a case with a 0.3% for a server.

They have alot of plans for the future. Question is will this game still be alive when those plans are eventually taken seriously and executed. They have plans for something special but it’s not being worked on yet. They have plans for this awesome feature but it’s not being worked on yet. No, they rather stick with scamming people out of their credits and giving you a random 2 minute job skin for your hard work.

To be honest, no body really has a god damn clue of what’s coming up. There’s a bunch of stuff they were planning to release. I recall seeing a screenshot of several things they wanted to come out with. Different features under different months in which they were planning to release them… They were like months to a year late on most of them and some aren’t even out yet. This was ages ago.

Also trades were a thing not too long after the open beta was released I think that people wanted… and in one of the latest patches we were told that they haven’t even started working on that yet. But it’s in the plans! So get hyped… I guess.

So don’t expect anything and you won’t be dissapointed.

Ya know, rental servers have been a request by their w:et/et:qw/fast fps fanbase, who are a very significant part of their founder community. Far before the current f2p model was even put in the game. I first put my hands on dirty bomb in… november 2013, and this was already a very touchy topic as they always dodged in their answers.

By now, this should have been answered. Even before putting the game on steam tbh. Every time they dodge those strategical decisions, they are endangering the life expectancy and the success potential of their game. They’ve been warned for a long time. Some massive community bits already left because of those reasons. They’re lucky enough to have little to no competition at all in the fast paced objective based fps genre nowadays.

I’m just reporting their most recent words about rental servers. As I said, there’s no real plans holding this.
