Since 1.0 release seems imminent...

(Fei-Ling) #1

… I wanna remind the creators of these things:

a) update the game’s picture for twitch (which currently still says ‘open beta’ on it) - https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/Dirty%20Bomb

b) maybe have some more collaboration with Humble Bundle - you guys probably know very well what kind of marketing you wanna do and ‘free stuff’ you wanna give out, but I personally feel for new players it would be essential to retain them to have them start with a reasonable roster. So for e.g. if the Squad Pack would appear in a humble bundle tier1, that probably would have a lot of people try out the game. At the same time of course don’t forget to also rewards veterans in some way when 1.0 releases because they gonna be pissed if other people get something for free/very cheap.

c) Twitch drops (for watching) and cheer rewards have totally become a thing. Seems worth it to look into your options here. Look how insane success Warframe had with that stuff and now Overwatch.

So much for now.
Cheers~!

A ) The game is still in open beta, so that title is fitting. And I’m sure they won’t forget it.

B ) Another humble bundle partnership, or even one with a similar company would be nice. Though it depends a lot on third party agreements, and there’s been player backlash in the past when the community thought SD was going to release a skin for a program only available in certain countries. Also considering DB is a free game, I’m not sure how a new HB skin pack would draw in new players any more than a usual advertisement

C ) DB has never had a very strong twitch community (although tbh it doesn’t have a very strong community on much of anything), but I guess it would never hurt. SD released special twitch skins to certain streamers awhile ago, but even something like a couple loadout cases could help get views up.
