Summer Squash made my game worse

It’s actually TWO bugs in once.

1st one : R key does not work so that you have to spam the damn R key for over 5times.

  • I can handle this, though it is still very annoying. I guess suddenly the game just won’t listen to R key for several second, that’s what I’ve thought.

2nd one : WALK cancels the reload because game thinks walking = sprint for some reason.

  • This one is the top worst. I can’t explain the anger I felt with this bug. Jumping, Crouching also cancels the reload, but the fact you can’t reload while walking. This is so critical. You have to STAND STILL while reloading when this bug appears, or either run back to ally base(place where you 100% sure it’s safe) and then stand still ~ reload.

May be this one happens right after the long jump, just like you told me Kirays. But I had this while I wasn’t even moving urgent, just peacefully walking THEN suddenly I just can’t reload without standing still.

Pretty much this. Everyone is experiencing this bug as far as I know. If you’re not, then you’re not playing Dirty Bomb correctly (or maybe a setting/configuration eliminates it???). It’s not just an annoying bug either; it ruins the entire game. It generally means the difference between living and dying, winning and losing. Really takes away from the whole experience and makes the game unbearable when coupled with all of the other bugs they have appeared as well as the huge performance drops.

Dirty Bomb used to be so smooth and fluid when I played. Now it’s starting to feel clunky and just an utter mess.

However, I do have hope. Hopefully all of these problems will be rinsed out. I’m sure the devs will continue to fix these issues and we’ll get our awesome Dirty Bomb back.

As for now, I’m more worried about losing players/potential players because of these problems. :frowning:

@Kirays said you have to long jump then reload right after the long jump to trigger it.
i havent tried to reproduce it. And im more of a BR-16 skyhammer player. Sooo… im not that jumpy i guess…

(ImSploosh) #43

@sweetColumn It happens more often than that, the long jump isn’t required, but it’s definitely easy to replicate it that way. I’m not sure, I need to keep playing and see what the causes are other than the long jump. I guess it would depend on what merc you play. But even with Rhino I was still experiencing it.

I’m just salty af because it’s ruining my experience :frowning:

here’s my glorious 1.16 frames per second!

Performance have decreased a lot but I have never faced the reload bug.
I have a switch weapon bug though. Not sure how to reproduce it, but I use mouse wheel to switch from primary to secondary (yeah, I know it’s a bad habit). Every once in a while, when I am using secondary, I can’t switch back to primary using mouse wheel. I have to press 1 (which is good as I tend to use it more now).
Anyone experiencing it ?

This has been a bug for quite a while actually. I always forget to report it, but I figured others might have. Should probably report it now though as I use the mouse wheel for switching. I don’t even find it to be a bad habit, it’s just faster for me and being able to switch weapons while still moving is a bonus.

And thus in comes the hotfix. Fingers crossed boyos :wink:

I have a pretty good laptop that can run BF4 at 90-120 fps.
DB runs at 80-100, I wonder why since BF4 is more demanding.
Before the update I had some lags from time to time but the game was running pretty smooth. Since the last update, it’s a nightmare : I have a lot of lags, severe frame drops like 120–> 40 or 60 and that makes the game so laggy. Overall the game isn’t smooth anymore and I can see it, it’s not just a feeling : I see the jolting almost all the time, the “hitreg” if I may call it like that is pretty bad even on stationary targets. Those lags appear even on the intro movie before the rounds.

Unreal Engine 3 bugs are fukken unreal m8.

The new reload bug is completely related to controls, and maybe just R in particular I’m not 100% sure, because I don’t use R to reload.

Change your reload key to mwheelup or something, and it doesn’t happen. Hopefully that helps them pin point the problem.

(SnakekillerX) #53

I haven’t noticed it happen a single time so far, but Delete is my reload bind. (so maybe you are right and it is related to R button binding?)

#54

It was fixed in the last hotfix. :slight_smile:

(pumpkinmeerkat) #55

Is it too late to Ctrl+Z summer squash part three?

(K1X455) #56

After the hotfix, game is still dropping fps but not as glorious as my 1.16 previously. Or I could just be impatient to really push how far down the hole goes down.

Anyway, after a map loads and I have played for about 8 minutes or more, time to restart DB. I don’t know how long I’ll tolerate this method of stop-start but this Summer Squash III is got to be the worst bug fixes I know. And I reckon, SD isn’t the one to blame this time…

EDIT:
I was wrong… it can go 0.4x framers per second

Sometimes the game just stuck and there is a black bar at the middle of screen shows connection lost. Anyone experiencing same problem?

(K1X455) #58

I did get this once but it crashed altogether

(The_N00Ba) #59

keep this post in mind if your game keeps crashing

Occasional (every 5-10 minutes) minimal but noticeable and annoying hitches. MG sound looping. Enemy airstrikes going off without the audio cue. Stoker’s molly doesn’t gib. None of this happened before SS. So yeah, SS has been a total bust for me. Can we roll back to an earlier version please?
