I’m glad that DB isn’t just another TF2 (that I adore but simply played way too much of) and while I agree that it needs a little more humor that can be added by some more colorful skins, nudity is really just boring and old and listening to people jerk their dicks and beans over the naked characters was already obnoxious a decade ago.
Even when people talk about bikinis, how do you translate that into “nudity”? How does wearing a tank top and hot pants becomes “nudity”? Maybe I just have a different experience, living in a place close to many beaches, but women in bikinis aren’t a “jerk off cismalefalocentricopressiocracy” thing, it’s something completely normal. The game already has pretty much zero realism in all aspects, so getting uptight about the skin someone else might wear is just nitpicking because of “muh feels.”

Because it’s jarring and does not fit with the rest of the game, it’s like being in cosplay in business casual environment.

The colorful irony that would be best in DB is the kind of stuff we see in PayDay 2. Give us some skins of old political figures from the merc’s country, or some blood/dirt spattered costumes like a Phoenix piñata or a Redeye cyborg.

This is a train I can hop on

Matchmaking is there for people who want to play competitively but do not have time to join a team or participate in tournaments, if they wanna have a ranked and unranked matchmaking that is fine, but it’s far from the thing that will fix Dirty Bomb. Community Servers need to be added so that the drop in and drop out mentality and playing with friends aspect can also be there.

If you’re going to be consistently petty then these conversations really don’t go anywhere.
And Execution was there for people who wanted to play Execution.
If you’re going to be consistently based on double standards, preaching about “PC gamer options” when you want community ran servers, and then turning “fuck options” when it’s about a game mode you didn’t care about, then taking you seriously really won’t go anywhere.

nudity - definition and synonyms

NOUN [UNCOUNTABLE]
/ˈnudəti/

the condition of not wearing clothes, or of not covering a part of the body that is traditionally covered when you are in public

If it helps your poor critical thinking skills, I’ll add the word “partial” in front of every instance of the word “nudity” for you

No, execution was wanted because Nexon wanted Dirty Bomb to compete with Counter Strike. There is literally no other reason behind it, because we’ve had these arguments already with how jarring it is and how it does not fit Dirty Bomb, while Ranked matchmaking has just been an under utilized tool that’s getting revamped and changed for a different purpose.

You do know beaches are “in public” and people traditionally wear bikinis when they go to them, right? But even then…

Do I need to go on?

This thread started as a light hearted joke and is now ending up with a debate around execution. I’m no specialist, but I don’t think it was the main subject of that thread. In short, you guys went off topic. :’(

You guys should probably create a specific thread about execution instead. I don’t think this thread is the place where you should be talking about that.

Because the thread went so deep in off topic content, I have to close it. Sorry. :confused:
