Unpopular Dirty Bomb Opinions!

(Reddeadcap) #81

I have mixed feelings both playing as and against Phantom, I bought him on release and had way too much fun with the way the katana worked before even noticing one could spin in place with it and Phantom’s high score, if that was all one used as reference was pretty obvious due to there being bonus badges for melee kills.

The fact that one could turn with the katana was obviously an oversight, Splash Damage also reduced it’s range for some reason and nerfed Chopper so wouldn’t do up to 110 damage.

The Refractive Armor was nerfed in too many fields, If they wanted it to be a cloak along with a shield Splash Damage could’ve done many changes but kept somethings the way they were, damage exceeding what the armor could take eating away into health making perfect sense though.

Examples
With the focus being Visibility, Recharge Rate and Defense
Low Visiblity, Fast Recharge rate? Low Defense
Low visiblity, High Defense? Low Recharge Rate.

Then theres the fact that his health was toned down to 110 which doesn’t really make sense considering the guy was visibily the most armored of all the Recons and instead of using some shield/cloak combo they could’ve just given him ahove average health/high mobility for that health class but a decent cloak and shrug it off as “that’s that protective but still light enough.”

Finally Heartbeat Sensor detection no longer disabling Refractive Armor, but will still spot Phantom, What.

Is a nuclear warhead effective when it isn’t armed? Until that sucker lights up it shouldn’t be able to do a damn thing.

I hate Shotguns and Burst Rifles…both are big spray and pray weapons in a newbs hands, where a few lucky hits will ruin your day even after all of those misses. (And in a experts hands a Burst Rifle can be as deadly as a Sniper Rifle, without the drawbacks :stuck_out_tongue: )

how is preferring the stark over the BR “unpopular”? Most people think the BR is better and has higher DPS, when in reality the stark does. People don’t calculate for themselves, and just read the number posted on a wiki.

Bunny hoppers need to suffer having cacti spikes in their feet for abusing the space bar like so.

People blaming hidden pub player ratings for unbalanced matches to are barking up the wrong tree. Double points for posting screenshots from Stopwatch. Quadruple points for postulating changing the metric to levels.

Arty is the better than Skyhammer at EV missions on the Defending team.
The PDP does not fit Redeye’s playstyle.
Rhino is too fun in Execution.

(streetwiseSailboat) #90

@SaulWolfden I don’t think the first one is unpopular given how spammable his arty strikes are.

(watsyurdeal) #91

This would also be solved with my suggestion above (bursting someone in the face with hipefire in cqcs just shouldnt be viable, but neither should it viable to ahnuld someone in the face on medium range). Right now weapons are constantly adjusted, a little here a little there. In the end it will be a shapeless mass of bullets and pellets. Most games solve this with ads and hipfire.[/quote]

That’s the WHOLE POINT of this game though, no CoD bullshit where you have to aim down your sights frequently to get a good shot in. Just fire from the hip, it’s an old school arena style shooter with objective based mechanics.

Burst Fire rifles are a bit too strong cause they do too much damage too quickly, or at least that’s how it feels. That is all subjective though, it has nothing to do with the fact this game is hip fire centric.

Rhino is mah boy.

-I Enjoy Dome
-I feel that the Hochfir could use a buff
-I feel Thunder should’ve been given the K121 and it would’ve worked just fine
-I feel larger merc game modes are needed (8v8+ teams)
-Blishlok is actually a great gun
-I found the event cards drop rate to be fine (This one’s gonna grab some attention)
-I dont find Vassili all that useless
-Mercs with Mechanic should have priority over normal mercs but before engineers
-Redeye is too slow
-Arty seems outclassed by Skyhammer

(Gaspoline) #94

the sparks revive gun nerf was very well done in a way that it only nerf’d in the way it was being OP (super long distance 1 shots)

fletcher bombs too op (1 shoting proxies)

(mirthfulPicture) #95

I hate using the M4.

  • Caulden is my favourite secondary
  • Thunder is better than Fragger
  • Phoenix/Paco would actually be a popular merc if it wasn’t for his awfull cliché voice acting
  • I hate Proxy, she’s a chavette
  • I still think Sparks is Czech, not Russian, regardless of what the devs say
  • Dreiss AR is the best all-purpose assault rifle/battle rifle primary
  • ADS as often as possible
  • Arty needed to be Vietnamese, not Chinese
  • Molotovs need a nerf
  • We need a fast moving, low health merc with an LMG
  • Vaseline’s ability should be “Lube”, enabling him to use his sniper rifle to OHK teammates
  • Sawbonez is the worst medic, his heals take too long to reach full effect, and teammates just run away from him
  • RedEye should have a card with the Dreiss, Caulden, and Kukri, with the Quick Slash, Chopper, and Flying Pig augments
  • When Turtle is released, at the inside of the barrier he deploys, facing the user, there should be a tray extension from which Turkish baklava and tea can be picked up for a temporary health boost past the normal 100% (similar to how the Try Hard augment works)

Elaborate. I mean, they made her Russian. How can she be Czech?
Is it because of the mountain logo-thingy on the REVIVR?

Nope, there was a discussion on the STEAM forum the other day, where I drew the conclusion that “Czech” was most likely her nationality by birth.

[quote=“OP on STEAM”]Is there any consensus on where she’s from? An outdated “word of god” listed her as Swiss, although some claim that she’s of Russian origin.

However, one of her taunts appears to be : “AUS DEM WEG BIN ARTZ!” Which translates from German to: “OUT OF THE WAY, I’M A DOCTOR!”

This, combined with her similarities to Nader, hints pretty strongly to being of some kind of Germanic origin.[/quote][quote=“Others on STEAM”]The Wiki has it listed as Bulgarian. I always thought she was Austrian.

swiss german i thought.

Eastern European (Not Russian). Probably Serbian or Bulgarian.

her fake papers probably come from diffrent countries. that’s why no one actually knows her real nationality[/quote][quote=“Me on STEAM”]She has a distinct Slavic accent (if there is something like a pan-slavic accent, but you’ll get the point). She doesn’t sound German in any case. However, “AUS DEM WEG BIN ARTZ!”, does hint at at least some German connection. Therefore my money is on “Czech”. West-Czech and German ties have historically been strong (Sudetenland, Bohemia & Moravia), and many Czech people there have German as their first or second language.[/quote]

Edit: Was Thunders bio changed in the last weeks by any chance? @RazielWarmonic
I remember it saying he’s Russian. Aswell as Sparks. Now it says noone heard him speaking Russian, not even Sparks, and she can speak Russian.

  • Any gun with ring sight sucks.
  • Remburg should not be allowed to one shot mercs with health over 100(body, arm and leg shot), needs huge fire rate reduction and should not be allowed to headshot like any other gun in game.
  • Suicidal Prox mining should not exist.
  • Arty is cooler and better than Skyhammer.
  • RedEye is the best recon in game.
  • Hip firing with Grandeur is lovely.
