Tried to play dirtybomb again, after months

(snappyFoundry) #1

And nothing positive have changed, in fact, it’s only got worse.
Now you can’t even bind long jump to a different key.

Severs still work like your old time dedicated server, which is a HUGE problem for dirtybomb. The game needs “casual” match making, to have fair teams, and so that you get to play the map you actually want to play.
Every single match is completely one sided, either you completely stop your opponents, or your get stomped. That is because splash damage has deliberately put in a balancing system to increase the one sidedness of teams, forcing randomed teams would yield much better balanced teams (that is how we know that it’s done on purpose).

You’re even forced to stay in a match, and afk, because otherwise you lose the XP from the match. This further makes the game worse for everyone that’s playing, anyone with half a brain can figure that out, so yet again, we can know this is deliberate sabotage from splash damage.

Splash Damage has really thought of everything to make this into a cashgrab. Not fix the issues that are literally killing the game, instead removing features (graphics, controls, and so on), in the hopes that all players will quit, and thus Nexon shuts the game down, after already paying a large enough sum of money to splash damage.
Nexon should start to take this scam from splash damage seriously.

I agree that the game is in a poor state right now, especially servers, which make it an unplayable game for me. But I wouldn’t go as far as considering it a cash grab or anything. I just believe there is a lot of inexperience going around and the fact that the community’s opinion and wishes are completely ignored will indeed kill this game before it is even born.

How do I phrase this.
Everything you’re saying is wrong.

Sure the game has lots of issues, but these are not it.

(Drcipres) #4

You arent forced to gain xp, it is just for lvl up, and lvl up is just a number.
You arent forced to pay money

Since the rebalance objective is very playable and often the matchs are, if not even, at least reasonable. If you play execution or stopwatch, or worse competitive, well wait until devs rebalance those as well.

I obviously quit because of these issues, and decided to try it again.
You think people should never ever try the game again if they once tried it before and didn’t like it?

I played maybe 5 games, and every time the teams were terribly unbalanced, in objective mode.

(Luccyous) #12

Open console, type this.
setbind LeftAlt “Duck | Jump” 1

It will stay forever. Do you even research?

Last time I checked, burglars don’t give you the option to not lose your money. No one is forcing you to spend money on DB, and you can easily enjoy your experience in DB without spending money.

(DarkMatterMatt) #14

Ummmmm…

  1. People pay more attention to rants without basic spelling mistakes,
  2. Splash Damage is not ‘deliberately sabotaging’ Dirty Bomb, DB still needs quite a bit of work, but they’re trying
  3. If you’re going to complain about a specific feature, [quote=“snappyFoundry;20170”]
    Now you can’t even bind long jump to a different key.[/quote] try googling for a solution first
  4. Just be nice on the forum, if you’re going to complain, please be polite

I bound it long ago, to both left shift and left alt, but now when I played again it’s gone. I’ve tried rebind it, but it doesn’t work.

Huuurr, these games that allow you to press a button instead of practising a bit and increase your skill factor… Real gamers don’t need keybinding for long jump :slight_smile:

(snappyFoundry) #17

You think being a “real gamer”, is something to be proud of?

You think not being able to hit 4 keys on a keyboard is something to be proud of? You’re not even delivering counter arguments anymore, you’re just being a smartass.

(LifeupOmega) #19

“Real Gamers” is such a piss poor argument honestly. People have bound things for convenience since it was possible to, because the less you have to think about executing one thing, the more you can focus on another. So many people use it that they may as well make it an actual bind in the options now.

Not even going to get into my hand issue either that make it a nightmare to hit said buttons. :wink:

@LifeupOmega

I agree, even keyboards that are considered gamer keyboards are defined so because they usually allow for makros to be implemented…
