DIRTY BOMB PRESENTS...THE RHINO AND KIRA UPDATE

(LiNkz) #61

So far so good.

Few MINOR things:

  1. Can you add counters to show how many people are in ranked matchmaking and to which server they que.
  2. Sometimes Orbital Laser disappears from the game, i know it doesnt go through roofs, but sometimes it disappears on just even ground without anything blocking it. even 6-7 seconds in the thing. (still kills) The way I reproduced this was I use the ability, then I move it by holding M1, Switch to a weapon, Switch back to laser, Click it once to a point -> disappeared.
  3. Still same sound bugs of effects like charging defibs, orbital laser sounds and rhinos minigun

EDITING MORE

  1. Can you show somehow how many games we still need to get from unranked to ranked
  2. Are there visuals when you rank up?
  3. Can we get separate que for North America West and East.

(CCP115) #63

Will there be another update when Open Beta starts? Or is this the Open Beta update?

Also why aren’t there weapon stats? I don’t wanna be that guy, but surely it can’t be that hard to add a number next to that blue bar that means nothing to me right now.

Hasn’t Nader been buffed 3 times in a row now?.. This is stupid, a slight .second delay is nothing if the projectile travels faster allowing for further distance and easier direct hits.

5 Nades, easy to hit?
Seriously she did NOT need this velocity buff, this is getting out of hand, good naders are wrecking with it.

If Splash Damage’s reasoning to nerf or balance anything that’s good, then why do you keep buffing Nader! You just had a free week of nader so of course the stats look bad in terms of accuracy now that everyone tried her! You did not need to buff her nade launcher again.

She’s already a huge pain in Underground because of the 5 nade buff!

imho, Kira was prettier before than she is now =(

Looks the same to me…

Prices are still too high, IMO.
The DEVs try to cash in like the big boys (Planetside2, LoL, etc.), even though this game is still in closed beta pretty much and does not have the right size of a playerpool to stand on its own feet as F2P, which should be pretty obvious, tho.

Isn’t that why they are expanding to Open Beta on the 2nd? To help cash in? lol

But the prices are still to high (for me personally).
50k Credits for 1 Merc…

sure, we got these credit-boosters now, but they also cost $money$

With the missions refilling every 3 hours and the new daily missions I have no problems anymore with the 50k credit price on mercs. That difference is MASSIVE.

(Swanidius) #72

meh… Played entire day and completed missions and STILL the amount of credits u get is too slow. For even a bronze card u need to play 3 days nonstop with this speed or even more. I dont even wanna imagine.

All this talk about there only being [quote=“MissMurder;10978”]
LOADOUT CARDS
NEW RARITY: COBALT

Cobalt is Dirty Bomb’s latest Loadout Card tier, complete with its own set of stylish Merc outfits and weapon skins. Cobalt cards are rarer than Gold, and are available for every Merc in the game.
Remember, while rarities beyond Bronze net you rarer bling, you’ll get no additional gameplay benefits. But hey, you’ll look extra swish!
[/quote]

Sorry @MissMurder - as mentioned by others no doubt - there is at least one instance, where Silver, Gold and ( I assume) Cobalt cards offer additional gameplay benefits. This could be an oversight, but Sawbonez’s Companion Operative isn’t listed in the Store under the Bronze loadouts available and neither is his Classic Operative card. Both have cricket bat, which does a lot more melee damage than the standard knives (unless it’s been nerfed?).

I actually decided to buy a Bronze for Sawbonez as I’ve not managed to get a card for him with the Blishlok. I stupidly didn’t check the List of Loadouts thread before buying and assumed that there were only two cards with Blishs (Original and Bastion), but as mentioned there’s one more (the Classic), if that had been available I’d have definitely bought it for the Blish and bat.

Anyway… regardless of my purchasing mistake - there appear to be cards you can get at Silver & Gold that offer different loadouts and ones that most players would consider better in comparison to the current Bronze ones.

If those cards aren’t meant to be in the game then they probably need to be removed for everyone. I say that as someone who has a Companion Gold, probably my best Sawbonez card.

(swellEmperor) #74

after how many matches i unlock my rank in competitive mode?

(MissMurder) #75

@LiNkz thanks for the report on the Orbital Laser. Also the numbers requests I will forward but I don’t think there are plans for that right now. Separate que for East and West also not sure if this has ever been talked about.

@Lumi yeah I know there is no real incentive to level right now (past level 5 anyway!) we’re thinking about this as well.

Suggestions!

  • Titles
  • Skin Loadout Card[No Perks] - Basically same as the stock loadout card only with a skin.
  • Stickers! - Paste them all over your merc/gun!
  • Free 2 hour Boosters
  • A Cobalt Crate

Just suggestions, not all at once of course but a few would be nice, like the stickers…

(xTimeBomb) #77
