Hello one and all!
It’s been a while since our last Founder’s gear update. Things are progressing nicely, but now we need some of you to take action before moving forward :).
If you’ve purchased a Veteran or Elite tier Founder’s pack….please follow this link to choose your preferred Merc Loadout Card! Loadout Card details can be found at the end of this post.
The Physical Goods
Those of you who purchased a pack with physical gear and provided your postal address should have received your t-shirts, hoodies, beanies, and posters by now. We hope you like them :D.
In-game Gear
As mentioned above, Founders in the Veteran and Elite tiers should let us know which Loadout Cards they want to choose as part of their Founder’s pack. We’ve set up a web page for you to do just that. Please make sure to make your choice by the end of the 22nd of March! If you’ve picked up a Legendary, Contributor, or VIP package, you don’t need to make that tough choice!
The Gun Tag system is on our “to do” list, however we want to get features like party based matchmaking and a robust competitive mode into Dirty Bomb first. Party matchmaking with friends’ll be a blast!
Names in Credits – Once we actually get credits into Dirty Bomb, the appropriate package holders will have their names added too :).
Digital Art, Audio & Docs
Much sleuthing through our knowledge bases and file servers is being done at the moment. There’re SOOOOooooo many files and pages to trawl through. This is going to take a little while, but we’re on it!
Founders Loadout Cards
Those of you who need to choose your Founders Mercs might want to know a little bit more about each of the cards. Below you’ll see the Mercs, their Augments and their Weapons.
