I’ve seen so many things in this post that are so dramatic and cringy to read, then a lot of valid points also.
Q.) “It takes me 15 minutes to get into a ranked match!!!”
A.) Well obviously not that many people are playing ranked, It would take you less than 2 minutes to get into a regular game. Ranked will grow when the playerbase grows, you contribute to those long wait times when you decide not to play because you hate waiting.
Q.) “I’m sick of this game being in beta, its so buggy blah blah blah”
A.) Better games have been in beta for longer or at least a similar amount of time, Rust, 7 Days to Die, H1Z1, The Forest, Most AAA games with anywhere from 50-250 Million dollar development budget take 3-4 years to develop fully. This stuff takes time, and clearly SD cares. And yeah obviously betas have bugs in them, “Betas are designed to test a whole range of features before the game goes life”. It’s called a beta for a reason.
Q.) “Low playerbase, DB Will never grow!!!”
A.) DB is doing just fine in playerbase atm, you can look at the steam charts for yourself: http://steamcharts.com/app/333930 But I’m seeing growth back to where it used to be, with with more content it will only go up. DB will without a doubt sponsor youtubers to talk about the game and do some events to get new players in the game, but now is not the time.
Q.) “CMM is ranked without rewards & quick join is better”
A.) I dont know how people can come to that conclusion, do you guys even play ranked? Ranked players are way more serious, more coordinated, and more determined to win. In CMM people just screw around with Javelin or whatever mercs they want to try out. I agree there should be 8v8 but other than that CMM is awesome. It’s Objective except you’re paired with your friends.
Q.) “CMM Takes too long to load into games!!!”
A.) Are you serious? Ive never waited more than 3 minutes to find a game, play ANY other game with matchmaking, Titanfall 2, CSGO, R6S, whatever and they all have around the average MM time, the only thing Dirty Bomb needs to work on is how buggy CMM is at the moment.
Q.) “This game is becoming a cut-paste CSGO shooter”
A.) This HAS to be a joke, am I in the wrong forum? Dirty Bomb REMOVED A GAME MODE, because it didnt fit the DB style, they are removing things that dont fit the unique Dirty Bomb style. CSGO is a low time to kill, high recoil, twitch shooter. Dirty Bomb is the exact opposite of that, each merc has abilities that help you counter other abilities. Dirty Bombs gameplay is dynamic and each match is different for me. I learn new things in almost every single game I play. Each new merc changes the meta drastically, each map revision changes the meta drastically. This game is nothing like CSGO.
Q.) “The maps are now so linear”
A.) I’m no level designer, but the maps have ALWAYS have been linear, Underground, Terminal, Bridge, There is no openness to any of those maps
Just chill out guys, theres a way to voice your concern without threatening to quit the game or say “the game is ruined” Every 2 weeks they are fixing things to accommodate your concerns. No need for hate just because they are trying new things. SD is listening and they themselves want to make a great game. Be thankful they arent pumping out OP weapons or mercs as cash grabs, instead they are focusing on trying to get this game ready to leave beta.
