QoL Feature: Favorite Loadout cards

(FireWorks) #1

Hey people of the Nexon Dirty Bomb Forums!

Id like to see how many of you are currently interested in a feature to select only distinct loadout cards during the lobby merc change. So called favorites.
While you have plenty of time in the barracks to scroll through all the possible cards, it can be a problem to quickly find the proper card in the lobby. Having a lot of cards where only a few are actually played, it might also be a nice quality of life feature for players with less cards.

Thing is, this costs development time that could be spent somewhere else. With this in mind, how soon would you like this feature implemented (if at all)?

I don’t have enough cards for it to be a problem yet

I am fairly certain I made an account on this forum oh so long ago now to post this exact suggestion. Also, one of the SD guys said that the function would be in the game pretty soon as they wanted to get it in during a Twitch stream when I asked (it was either Fluffy Gimp or Smooth). Sadly it never happened despite it being a huge QoL boost.

The cynical perspective is they never put it in so that people would accidentally trade in cards they wanted then spend more money/time. But the realistic perspective and most likely closer to the truth is it was a “nice to have” feature but not a required one.

It’s by no means a required one. As long as you pay attention when doing trade ups you don’t have to worry about getting rid of cards you want to keep.

i cant bother to trade up manually dragging cards onto the boxes

favorites should:

  • be the first in line when selecting cards for the squad
  • be skipped from the autofill function, and marked indicating their status

100x this. I did ~500 trade ups this weekend and had to track everything on paper. Not fun.

This pretty much sums it up. With around 40 cards per merc (all silvers, bronze, iron and lead) it can get a bit challenging to find the right one^^

I would like to see this…lost my beloved Bushwacker loadout as I traded it in by accident (both had the Kek and spares and I accidentally traded in the wrong one…so far haven’t had any luck getting it back)

I suggested this awhile back. I also included favorites being hidden from trade up/ins.

I can imagine its not as easy to code as the rest of the loadout system and thus being put on the backburner. But with my current inventory, Id really love to see this feature sooner than later
