As long as it’s not Turtle, I’m fine with it. Aimee, Thunder, or Stoker are my main hype trains right now. [/quote]

I asked what continent the merc was from and they didn’t know. Turtle is from Turkey, a transcontinental country, so maybe that’s it?[/quote]

But he’s so boring. [/quote]

boring? Imagine all the places you can jump to with his shield you’re not supposed to :# [/quote]

And imagine all the fire with Stoker. Fire>Jumping to places. [/quote]

Easy.
Kill him before he throws the molotov.

But then you would still die because in the time you’re throwing the molotov he has already landed 6 solid shots on you.

Still no Stoker? I am slowly losing faith.

Edit: Looks like that circle could be the dome on Dome.

Another Edit: While looking through my Dirty Bomb files i found an item called ‘‘HackingDevice’’, however when i tried to spawn it in the console commands it didn’t work.

[Grave_Knight]

There should be different factions for different maps.

I suspect this is going to be the long term plan. Each map will have different faction based on the lore of the map. Like the Underground map is definitely a CDA outpost while Bridge is definitely a Jackal target.

I could see a terrorist cell being responsible for Chapel (which would probably be another CDA defense) while Terminal might actually be a CDA offense (destroy dangerous material before they can be weaponized).

EDIT: By the ways, the embers kind of give it away that the next merc is Stoker.

[Ardez1]

@sentimentalDime I am pretty sure that hacking was an old thing they took out of the game(Back when it was called Extraction). No clue if they intend to re-add it, but there are plenty of leftover things in the game files that have been taken out with no plans to implement.

Would you be able to confirm this @Nail ?

[Faraleth]

@sentimentalDime Do you see the flames at the bottom of the image?.. :3

@Faraleth One can hope, or though i did test the Molotov, Deployable Shield, Concussion Grenade and the 3rd Eye Cam, and none of them seem overly exciting.

I’m still pretty sure it will be Turtle.

@RyePanda I hope not, when i tested the shield out it seemed really wonky, half the time it would just straight up disappear, and often, it couldn’t be on the ground, so you ended up with a floating piece of junk that couldn’t be reclaimed.

They probably would fix that.

[Backuplight]

Any speculation on what the latest image might be? I’m starting to think it must be more than dome the map, but no clue what it could actually be. Maybe just more flavour/lore stuff, though I’d love it to be more than that.

@RyePanda I hope they would, otherwise, i can guarantee you that only trolls hellbent on blocking passageways would use him.

[SteelMailbox]

What’s this? An update that has an actual name and not a merc name? Blasphemy.
In all seriousness though they should up the quality of the hints, they’re too damn obvious.
Also I am turtley not stoked for a thunder storm to happen when they aim to release turtle (What? I wanted to try to)

You were playing with the old CBT versions (well, the wall is from Alpha), of course they’re not overly exciting. Why do you think they removed those mercs in the first place when they went OBT? Hell, Aimee was removed way before CBT ended and Alpha never even made it to the Beta phase. The Molotov is the only one that might have been removed for being OP.

@Grave Knight I have to disagree, as the Molotov seemed to have been updated (I wasn’t in the CBT, so i’m basing this off Youtube videos) as the animation + the color of the flames were different.
