Dirty Bomb Closed Alpha Progress Update - August 6th 2013


(stealth6) #161
  1. I think the current stuff is temporary. (not 100% sure)

  2. They’ve already said that this is part 1 of 2, in part 2 they are going to tweak the characters more. (like you said - speeds)

  3. Grenades are coming back, but not as they were. (Also mentioned multiple times on the forums)

  4. Patch notes said they were removing minimap, but were going to implement a larger command map at a later time.

The first pass of this will be coming in the next update :slight_smile:


(RasteRayzeR) #163

The more I test it and think about it, the more the character-centered design seems to to work, but not in its current state. Waiting to see next update to confirm this.


(Rex) #164

Are you trolling?


(RasteRayzeR) #165

I’m actually not trolling … I got almost everytime the payback kill with it


(DarkangelUK) #166

I think that’s Rex’s point.


(Rex) #167

I believe you, but I was referring to the word “nice”. I mean does it feel rewarding to get kills for free?


(RasteRayzeR) #168

The pub player will surely like it a lot. As I’m between the hardcore pub and average comp player, I kinda like it, isn’t “nice” but “fun”


(zeroooo) #169

Ye for pub players its.funny i guess, for comp players.its.just one more retarded and noob style cod feature which - i think nobody from the real compplayers - wants to see in our game :o


(Ashog) #170

I like martyrdom, but agree that it has to be serverconfig-regulated for comp.


(ailmanki) #171

Its not like easy to kill somebody which is aware that you are having martyrdom. So I guess its a rather useless skill for Comp.


(DarkangelUK) #172

Personal opinion here, don’t care for debate on it: It’s cheap “aw you died, here, have a free kill”


(Ashog) #173

Ailmanki:

Well yeah, that’s why a server admin will be able to stll keep it on in comp if he wishes :wink:

DA: have you tried it? It is not an easy kill - it is as timing and luck dependant as say arming a C4 randomly on a husky to kill someone on the street.


(DarkangelUK) #174

If you get any kills with it it’s cheap.


(Ashog) #175

No it’s not! :slight_smile:


(DarkangelUK) #176

Totes is. Anyway, not debating it, just my opinion… will leave it at that.


(Rex) #177

CoD perk -> Martyrum -> lowskilled


(RasteRayzeR) #178

Agreed, this is for the pub world. Leave it to that


(Seanza) #179

It’s a bit lame, but it’s pretty funny too. Also, it gibs you, so saves your enemy bullets :smiley:


(.Chris.) #180

I wouldn’t say its particularly lowskilled (I’m not saying it’s high skilled either!), you still have to time it right and there is a a beeping noise that gives it away and such but it is indeed cheap because you’re getting a reward for getting killed which is pretty lame if you ask me.
