Problems ive fount with the game so far

(eruditeStew) #1

started playing dirty bomb about 4 days ago and ive noticed these problems so far

  1. shotguns are like sniper rifles at the moment the range needs to be greatly reduced

  2. allot of the pistols/sidearms are better than allot of the primarys the range and the damage of secondrys/sidearms needs to be reduced.

  3. the movement speed of mercs needs to be reduced a bit they run so fast it looks like they are speed hacking at times,and with this being a free to play game and people playing it from all regions having to much speed can make your merc ghost like you are invisible while running.

  4. the loadout cards aint a bad idea but it lacks in the area of customisation.

  5. this is pretty much a problem in all games like this though which you guesed it, people hacking,ive noticed no end of headshot aimbot users and people with no cooldown on there abilities,like airstrike spam for instance wihich is so dam annoying,this has a fairly long cooldown and when 1 guy is just spamming it one after another you know somethings not right :confused:

  6. its pay to win but that don’t bother me much at all and before people say its not pay to win (paying to win means being able to buy any advantage in game with real money,it don’t matter if you can unlock them in game normally or not,you can unlock everything pretty much buy paying which is an advantage which makes it pay to win.

but other than those things so far its really good for a free to play game

[left]here we go again…

  1. shotguns are good right now, but they have a lot of spread and loose a lot of damage over range (unlike sniper rifles)

  2. i dont know which sidearms you mean but thats not true

  3. speed is the life source of this game, if you cant move properly, you are dead
    each region has its distinct servers, if you dont play on yours then its your fault they lag around
    if you want a slower game then play csgo, you can make dinner while playing it

  4. it wont change, its way too profitable in its current state

  5. hackers exist in every game, however, there are only a few in db
    the anticheat is ok-ish and most of the people you call hackers just know how to aim properly (headshots)
    some abilities are spammy per design, skyhammers is not but he is played quite regularly and i doubt you have reached lvl 20 in 4 days, so you play on the beginner servers where a lot of skyhammers move around

  6. you say its p2w, but it isnt

everyone can buy a bronze card from the credits he gets in the beginning

would you say a game you have to buy is pay2win? no?
otherwise you say every game in the whole universe is pay2win.[/left]

you didn’t get one single thing right, except this :" its really good for a free to play game" try again in a couple weeks

They’re pretty bullshit but not due to the range, more due to how they interact with DB’s movement mechanics. When you can long jump into someone you don’t really suffer from using a shotgun. Would rather see them be secondaries honestly, and balance them that way, because they suffer from so many balancing issues that I can never see them being on par with any other primary without being frustrating to fight against.

That’s probably you being outplayed, the machine pistols used to be better and they’re as close as you get to a primary with a secondary. Pistols and revolvers are mainly for finishing unless you can really, really aim (S&W is a beauty for that imo).

The whole point of this game is to be fast, if you have people from other regions that’s the issue, not the speed of the game. Shouldn’t have to casualise a game because people can’t keep up with the action.

I won’t touch this, I’m mixed on loadout cards but allowing full customisation would be awful 'cause we’d all run Drilled / Explody / Unshake for example. If you mean skins and such, yeah they need to be split.

Hopefully we’ll see improvements to anti-cheat and the like.

Is it? I’ve played for around 600 hours and haven’t spend anything outside of the Skullsplitter trinket. I’ve got everything I want, several cobalts and high tier loadouts, and every merc.

What you’re talking about doesn’t make it pay to win, more like pay to skip the grind. Battlefield lets you do this too on top of buying the game but, again, just playing the game and HAVING FUN lets you get everything without paying anything.

For the P2W part:

I guess the problem here is how the game explained its loadout system. 8/10 negative review on Steam i have seen are all about this game being P2W (while it is clearly NOT), they jumped into the game and saw people running around with cool looking card and they thought those cards are ways more powerful than the one they had. SD should make a real big statement in the main page like: “EVERYTHING ABOVE BRONZE IS PURELY COSMETIC, AND YES, YOU CAN BUY THE EXACT CARD YOU WANT IN BRONZE FOR 17K5” “STOP CALLING IT’S P2W YOU DICK”

Btw OP is the victim of that.

Edit: I love how the word Dick is not censored.

  1. Shotguns are really good for close range, but they have a really bad bullet spread and they are pretty much useless anywhere outside of the range of 3 knives (triple range of the maximum range a knife attack can reach)
  2. No they aren’t. Revolvers, Deagle and Cauldren are all bad. Seblstrad and M9 are nice but you will still die instantly if you try to kill with those. Machine Pistols are good, but you will get rekt by any other gun unless you flank the enemy or the enemy is a sniper
  3. The speed is one of the things that make this game unique, removing it will hurt the game
  4. I agree that there aren’t much options on customizing your character, but the game is still beta and they might add cool stuff in the future, but even if they don’t it won’t matter much
  5. You can’t stop hackers, in 100% of the multiplayer games there’s at least 1 sad kid that didn’t get enough love from their parents
  6. It’s not pay to win, it takes 1 week to unlock a merc and get a bronze card for them. Also you get a gold card for Aura or Skyhammer and extra 25,000 credits for free after playing for a bit. 25k credits are half a merc or almost enough for a cheap merc like Arty

OP just needs to understand it’s a different game-type to what he is used to playing, if he continues learning, he be fine

(Sorotia) #11

Sounds like someone got beat by a Aura or Proxy when they thought they were hot stuff and blaming everything they can instead of themselves.

Even going as far as to use the P2W card…

(Jostabeere) #12

This is objectively wrong on so many levels. It’s not even “his opinion” it’s just blatantly wrong. Like saying the sky is purple with green dickbutts on it.

(Szab95) #13

If you put the last point to the beginning I would have stopped reading but now i wasted my time reading someones opinion who thinks this game is P2W.

(Icecoal) #14

All those complains about hackers , I rarely see any , can’t even remember the last time. It’s like beginners have no idea how good some players are.

(Jostabeere) #15

Yes. The issue is almost non-existant now. It was really bad about 1 moths ago before the ReV though.

(mirthfulPicture) #16

So, then every f2p game ever is p2w to you?

(doxjq) #17
(SaulWolfden) #18

You know…

(EverythingElse) #19

P2W? WATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

(Jostabeere) #20

Yeah. Still don’t need to insult OP.
