Private Matches - Why so limited?

(BrokenLogicGaming) #1

I was kinda hoping for more customization…like you & your friends messing around changing settings like longer/shorter cooldown to no cooldown, Knife Only, Pistol Only, More HP to Hardcode/One shot, to like moon jumping/etc. and to have a limit of 5 to start is kinda over anything…kinda wish there was like 1v1/2v2-8v8 but anyway these are just my thoughts/opinions I know, no one else would want or recommend these but I just was a bit curious of why are we sooo limited in Private match’s customization.

I would love to know, what you guys think or what you believe should be added or if you just don’t like the ideas all & why? :smile:

Thank you for your time!

I agree that it is pretty limited, however it is released now as an “Alpha” state, so I hope that means more options are to come.

Since there is no XP, Credit or Mission progression, I don’t understand why it is limited to a minimum of 6 players, you should be able to start it with at least 2 people.

My best guess is that they don’t want everyone to simply just make a ton of 1 vs 1 games and use up all of their available server space. Time will tell!

I hope to definately be able to make smaller groups a posibility, as it is a good way to get new players into the game and show them the ropes real quick without having their head blown off every 5 seconds by the other team.

The option to “open to public” would be nice too.

As the devs said, each private server is NOT hosted by the player. It is connected to Dirty Bomb’s main server which takes up a server in the available servers, so if it’s 1v1 than a lot of servers would be taken up.

I see…in my opinion, they should of taken the choice between hosting on their servers or hosting your own route…but I fully understand that they seem to be limited to the things they can do, atm…I was just a bit curious…but was mostly curious about limit of customization but I also do hope they add in more options/server choices! Ty for the reply guys and letting me know what you think!

It’s mostly because they are testing it first in Alpha stages so they didn’t have players host it maybe because they can’t see the stats? Dunno.
