Your personal pros and cons for the update?


(GatoCommodore) #21

[quote=“Herr_Hanz;212907”]Pro’s: MK46 Feels like a laserbeam :smiley:
con: everything looks too much like Colorgrading 2, which i hated.[/quote]

i dont know if its only me but its like movement and shots are more fluent now.

and i actually hit heads with dreiss!


(Ptiloui) #22

[quote=“Dox;33492”]Con: The lighting for me looks nothing like it did in the videos. Everything is greyscaled for me, and colours are way less vibrant. Areas that are dark are now way too dark and areas that are light seem to be way too light. What gives?

Example:

Gosh ! Are you using texturepoolsize1 ? :open_mouth: Weird you got this look.


(AlphaUT) #23

Pro: As far as I played since the update till now, my FPS is pretty much around 180.

Con:

1.Had a time which suddenly dropped from around 180 to 60~70 for a short period of time, but that’s the only time.

  1. NO SMALL BLACK CHANGES WHEN SCOPING

Pro

  • Beautiful map areas

Cons
-Everything feels so easy for attackers now and hard for defenders.

-Sparks medpacks dont do as much xp anymore (personal one :frowning: )


(watsyurdeal) #25

Well I can run this game on Super and still get well over 144 fps, so I am happy. :slight_smile:


(blufflord) #26

that moment ur pc is still so shitty u only get 30 fps on minimal, but eh atleast it seems to be a consistent 30


(bontsa) #27

Pros: Holy smoke flavoured beer in a mini-fridge under a bunkbed I can actually run the game with decent fps without a custom config.

Cons: stable 60+ fps still didn’t make me git gud. Goddamnit.

Where’s my damn “I feel ya bruh” reaction?


(Soerbert) #30

Pros: Awesomely high framerate; somehow my mouse response feels a lot better; love the new colors

Cons: Like many others i also experienced sudden framedrops, but i had this issue before the update too (with the difference that before it completely froze for around 2sec now its around 10fps for 2sec. So it kinda improved :confused: )

conclusion: still love the new update, thanks devs :slight_smile:


(Dawnlazy) #31

Pros: final objective of Trainyard is finally less of a pain the ass to finish.

Cons: MY GAME STILL FREEZES RANDOMLY I’M SICK OF THIS SHIT


(jnglst) #32

Pros and cons are too many to list but here’s my main con:


(bushyg) #33

So this is all good and fun to discuss between players, but when will we have some acknowledgment of these frame drops from SD?

*Edit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Dirtybomb/comments/5ebnb1/the_mofo_update_bug_megathread/dabyncn/ Might be something worth looking at.


(doxjq) #34

Exactly the same as me. Pre-update it was random freezes (0fps) and now it’s just 1-2fps lol.

Yep.

[quote=“Kelben;212869”]

Cons: My mouse response feels different. Something is off. [/quote]

Same here. Even though I doubled my frame rate, my mouse had horrible input lag for some reason. Changing DB in task manager to high priority though seemed to fix mine, so worth a shot if you haven’t already.


(Press E) #35

My main complaints are the removal of the ammo “bug”, and the fact that defending the first objective on Bridge now just seems kind of horrible. I agree it sucked before, but I feel like they almost overdid it. The complete lack of perfect cover around the EV bugs me quite a bit as an aura main.


(Noir) #36

Pros: Not sure I see any pros. Depending on the server, it may feel smoother. Not entirely sure though.

Cons:

  • Visibility is now very bad. Can’t see small mercs at far distance, aliasing, dirt particles out of nowhere during explosions, blood covering the whole screen, making it impossible to track enemies heads. New colors does not help.

  • My mouse does not respond like before, I can’t hit consistently in CQC, had to lower sensitivity by 0.5 and increase FOV by 5 points. I am missing to many shots, losing 1v1 vs low levels. I used to have a solid 38-39% accuracy. Feels very bad.

  • Dirty Bomb used to run fine and I had fps above 250, hitting 300 sometimes. It’s n ow capped to 180. I dont see how loosing 100 frames can help me. I ve never experienced nor heard about issues described by SD on high end computers. I have played other games on U3 and never faced this kind of issues.

  • Overall, Dirty Bomb is turning more casual due to some map changes. I dislike it a lot. Dirty Bomb is competitive. Learn it or leave it.

  • I am not sure about this one but it has been confirmed by some veterans: TTK seems lower now. It can’t be and I am pretty sure I am wrong but it strongly feels like it is. I have 1000 hours + in DB and yesterday, for the first time, I had an ace with a pistol only. Without trying hard. Maybe it’s related with hit detection which feels weird.

  • All map changes favor the attacker side. Bridge is spoiled for me. Can’t defend well, can’t attack well, can’t sneaky repair. A couple of suicide repair attempts and it’s done. Last trainyard OBJ is now a joke and long flank route through bridge feels useless now.

I love Dirty Bomb. I really do. I play it everyday and I am not willing to stop, but God, it feels bad.


(Herr_Hanz) #37

also a con: brightness is WAY too high, and reducing gamma doesnt help.


(sonsofaugust5) #38

Pros: Maps look a lot better, I always have colorgrading 2 on so I’m not sure if trainyard still has a nasty yellow filter. Frame rate seems more stable? Gun sounds are amazing. Game seems very polished.

Cons: If you have fps drop, try turning off high quality materials.
A lot of the high skill jumps have been taken out of maps, something that I loved about dirty bomb maps. Content is slow to come. First PUG i played my character was hitching on wall jumps. Seems fine now though.
BLOOD OFF but I still SEE BLOOD???


(LifeupOmega) #39

Then uncap it, it’s not hard.


(sonsofaugust5) #40

How does more frames help you if you have a max refresh rate on your pc…
