How do NX and SD plan on making money off DB after all this?

[quote=“CyaN;180110”]THE FOLLOWING IS JUST MY OPINION:

They probably did this so that its somewhat fair to players. Take for example: the founder’s proxy has hollunds whereas the closed beta obsidian proxy is reimburg. If they were to fix a hochfir proxy, those who wants a shotgun would complain=unhappy players. If they were to fix a shotgun, those who have the same type of gun in obsidian proxy before would complain. Thats why the simplest way to solve this is to 1/9 as they cant possibly satisfy every single player. I personally prefer this as i really dont know what i really want for proxy so im letting SD to help me decide. I decided to pay money for this is because i really like dirty bomb as and overall and i want that game to prosper.

Sry if i ranted and maybe offended some people but this is my personal opinion on this. Do not forget that dirty bomb is a FTP game! (They also need funds to continue improving this game)[/quote]

Tread lightly. Those sorts of opinions aren’t every welcome here.

Can you please stop posting these unintelligent one-liners?
Wherever I go on these forums, I come across these dumb posts of yours.
Just take a good look at your own post history, and think to yourself: What can I improve here to not look like a mentally handicapped person?[/quote]

probably eating a bullet, but since society frowns on suicide that’s not really an option.[/quote]

Don’t be silly. You don’t care about the society after doing a small suicide. ZING!

I cause enough problems being alive. I’d only cause more being dead.

Nah I think those who paid actual money should choose whatever card they want.

I think that’s fair and not too p2w

(DarkMatterMatt) #25

I agree with @Weekendwarrior (not quoting you because quoting from mobile devices is broken :disappointed:) For $17 NZD you kind of expect something good. If they were split shotgun/hochfir, give the players 3 loadouts to pick from (Remburg, Hollunds, Hochfir)

EDIT: random capitals :tongue:

the rng in this game is fine, bit annoying, but overall fine you can 100% get the best cards you like in bronze, the rest are skins for shinies and if they sold the reskins no one would buy enough crates to make money. at least its not this

I am not against the RNG, hate me All you want. But I think it adds variety to the obsidian

RNG itself is not the problem, but the fact you get RNG both in what weapon / augments you get AND the skin, it goes to from being valid mechanic to being outright faceslapping for paying user. In free cases even massive RNG like now is just fine and acceptable. You need to look no further than just 1 HowtoSniff’s unboxing / inventory peak video to see how ridiculous system is even for the whale- (horrible term but bear with me) players of the game.

Separating functional loadout and skin, putting them both behind separate RNG, having them one-time mergeable would make situation best of both worlds for both the publisher and player. Player would still have to spend either time or money in order to finish their project Pokemon (gettin’ all em loadouts in higher variants), and publisher & developer would still gain profit from all this by selling skin cases. Would allow also even more diverse selection of skins, as even things like Lead & Iron skins would be properly available, weapon skins could also be separated to create even more revenue.

They need to clarify all characteristics of every stuff you buy, especially when you buy it with real money. The lack of information make half of the people who bought the stuff angry.
Just need to give all the information before selling items. And not just in the forum.

I think the whole system needs a tweak. Like if you trade up or trade in you can use credits to increase the chances of a better loadout. Like eliminate every loadout you don’t want for 5k each. Or perhaps pay credits for a re-roll. Another idea is when you trade up or trade in you are presented with 3 different loadouts and you pick your favourite one. Just my 2 cents.

(asparagusMist) #33

i think the idea of dirty bombs free to play is really great.with what you can get for free is amazing the only thing is its so amazing that i own literally all chars even cobalts and not spent one penny !

that is crazy. i played for nearly 1000 hrs own all content but not invested one penny. feel for the game and a bit guilty but if i dont need to spend why should i ?

the only thing is in the future or maybe already this could be effecting the people behind the project.

i understand how ftp works. a very small percentage of the total keep games like this moving but i find this games just all most too good for what you can achieve for free. which is odd to say in such a gaming climate of being ripped off.

i love how Neverplayserious is the only one who disliked your post ayyyyy

(Yes) #35

Meh, won’t stop me from buying cases.

What might stop me is if we don’t get a way to convert generation 1 loadouts to generation 2, but that’s another discussion.

Don’t worry, Overwatch cut their release date so it’s coming out a day early now. :slight_smile:

LOL try TERA for RNG and Metin2 for P2W. I never really call games P2W, but Metin2 really is.

I also found this:

Devs no longer reliable sources for answers on their own game?
