Something is about to happen...

[QUOTE=shaftz0r;498082]its improved ALOT. people are are just being silly

^ lots of this ^ i just cant handle playing the same maps that we’ve been playing for the past 6 months + not to mention that i drastically prefered them when they were considered “too long”. ****, the last half of trainyard was amazeballs, and i enjoyed attacking church on white chapel personally.[/QUOTE]

I agree with the longer maps. I really miss that. I’d say add back the objectives and if anything just make them faster to complete? Make a capture point faster, or the EV faster, or fewer datacores to deliver. I really liked seeing MORE of the maps and having MORE variety in the tasks to accomplish. These maps that have been whittled down to “hack a terminal and blow up a railcar” are just too short. I know there was discussion in the forums before about how the maps were too long and too many objectives, but like I said, speed them up in other ways to keep the game flowing.

rofl wut?..

(PixelTwitch) #44

As someone who intends to generate their income for a couple of years from this game.

unless you have large breasts, or are in the upper tier of talent, dont give up your day job

(PixelTwitch) #46

I gave up my day job 2 years ago and have been living comfortably from gaming since,
Manage to get lots of consultancy work with game developers and also worked for Team Dignitas for a decent length of time. Now I am sponsored by a few companies and also get money from the views and stuff… All is good :slight_smile:

so you’re trying to convince people that its lucrative to be bad at games, and make videos that very rarely reach 1000 views? seems completely legit

(PixelTwitch) #48

lol, currently most of my money comes from consultancy work however I do make around a $500-$1000 a month via YouTube (depending on the month and CPM). Bad at games… Fair enough… Your opinion fella…

I do not need to convince people its lucrative to be bad at games when Total Biscuit, PewDiePie, YogsCast and many more than I could ever name already do that for me.

Besides I have many people I consider as great gamers telling me I am decent so… Ya…
Honestly got nothing to prove really. You do your thing and I will do mine :slight_smile:

Really good sound quality (I spotted a Yeti mic), a lot of uploaded, recent/fresh videos, combined with a personal and professional tone. Thousands of subscribers. (Congrats. It takes hard work to get that.) To me, after checking out PixelTwitch’s YouTube channel, it is clear that this channel has a clear potential for tons of more content, and subscribers, and it is worth the envy of any hobby web entrepreneur (me included). Also, finally, to relate my ramblings to gaming and Splashdamage, I think these types of channels are important for new games such as Dirty Bomb.

No, PixelTwitch didn’t pay me or endorsed me in any way to write all this :wink:

Nonsense? One year ago you had no problem finding a game. Imo the game was better a year ago than the game we have now. For me, the game is no fun and I cant be bothered to play it. If there arent any major changes, DB wont be a game I will play.

Ok, maybe I am not seeing something. What is worse, besides performance issues and the “way” they are focusing on testing?

(Glottis-3D) #52

nades, classless objects. best objects cut out from potentially good maps. (Waterloo-hack, Whitechapel-Chapel, Camden-2 last objects)

(onYn) #53

Yeah, okay, you got me :smiley: - at least the movement got better tho :stuck_out_tongue:

(Ashog) #54

Game was certainly better in Alpha state 1-2 patches before the dreaded agnostic objectives patch. That patch also removed nades from all chars but one. This is the thing that hurt me most :frowning:
I still hate it and always will. Bring me nades back! :frowning:

At that time there were regular clanwars, even tho not many clans, but hell, what do you expect from closed alpha. Nowadays noone plays wars or drafts.

Only movement and sound/animations improved a lot, however the former is still far away from its awesomness.

(Glottis-3D) #55

damn! this Ashog guy is smart! and not S.M.A.R.T. smart…the real smart i mean!

(Ashog) #56

but… wait… I haven’t even shown you my surprise!

S.M.O.O.T.H. >>> S.M.A.R.T.

/aka Smart Movement On Overfeatured Terrain Hell

The only thing which will happen is the next patch… don’t get too excited please.
