Dirty Bomb Have Slower Game Play.

(IcyPoison) #1 
 Think about it, the game is a little out of control and too quick. If it had a little bit more strategy, the game would be flawless! Right now its not the worse game ever, it's just that if it was slower, it would be much more fun. It's hard to have a strategy if everyone is just running around like a wild monkey or something. I see people panic all the time with the jumping and the hopping off walls. It is just insane. Slow it down and it will be better. Now, I was not here in alpha but I did see the trailer and it looked pretty nice. Well at least the game play did. The gun animations, sounds, etc. were not that great but that was alpha. It was not even close to done so of course its forgiven. The guns have been improved greatly and if the game play was just slower, even a little bit slower, it would be tons of fun. Comments?

Thanks for reading it all! If you agree with me, tell me and give me suggestions on how to change it. Thanks again. :slight_smile:

I personally disagree. The higher pace compared to other modern shooters makes it stand out in a positive way imo. Having to think and react quicker just raises the skill cap and, at least for me, makes the game more fun for longer.

Games that are hard to master are better to me, because the replayability will always be there. You always have room to improve and can always learn more. However many mercs or maps there are won’t matter because you always have a reason to play more either way.

Just hang in there! I bet with a bit more time playing, you’ll get better and start to have more fun.

I love the fast pace.

Also, there is a reasonable degree of strategy in the game.

  • Where to place deployables
  • Which route to take to the objective
  • When to attempt to push, based on the spawn timer
  • Which enemies to take out first
  • Whether to gib the enemy or try to take out the medic
  • Which merc to use based on the team comp/objective/part of the map
  • Whether to attempt a sneaky repair/plant or to clear the area out first
  • Whether to try to get side objectives done first

I don’t see how slowing down the gameplay would improve the need for strategy by much.

It went away from CoD/Badfield-like-playstyle and I like it.

Are you high dude? This game is awesome and different because it’s FAST PACED. Facepalm

Don’t change it’s fast pace nature. Black Ops 3 is coming go play that when it releases. This game is different and I’m loving it. When BOPS 3 comes out i’ll play that as an alternative.
Games like this make you act fast shoot fast. Quick thinking ftw. All these skills you learn here will be applied in Black Ops 3. Guess who wins the snail paced shooter or the fast paced shooter :smiley: >:)
Hang in there you will get to grips with the speed of the game. It took me a little while too now I’m rocking it. Baby steps bro :stuck_out_tongue:

Slower pace? Oh God, I don’t want another Brink…

I mean, i loved Brink. But that speed, ugh.

(Smokahontas) #13

A slower pace just doesn’t fit to DB.

(kAndyREW) #14

If you want slower pace, I think Insurgency may be better for you.

Or cs:slow

(Ghosthree3) #16

CS:Slow is even less playable after playing DB so much.

(Faraleth) #17

I have to disagree as many others do, because what makes DB stand out from the crowd for me, is that it’s fast paced (like many of the old FPS, such as UT and Quake), and steers away from the the more generic “modern military FPS” which I have never been a fan of.

It’s just my 2-cents and I think if they ever changed Dirty Bomb’s gameplay style to be “slower” as you put it, they would lose almost the entire player-base. We are here because we enjoy fast paced classic FPS, rather than the more strategic Counter Strike style.

If you want to agure that TTK could be a tad slower, like one more shot slower on SMGs and other fully automatic weapons. Maybe nerf the Burst Rifles a bit too.

(Ghosthree3) #19

I’m pretty happy with TTK as it is, I could go slightly higher but not too much. High TTK is great and all but I don’t think it fits the game too well.

Please don’t slow the game down. I don’t want to switch from coffee to ovaltine.
