I had a big idea about joining two or three teams of dwarves on missions. The Glyphids have hives, that's for sure. In connection with the infection of these same glyphids in season 3, it would be possible to do joint missions to storm these infected hives. Each team destroys the hiveguard dreadnought, and then storms the hive itself, uniting into one. Each one either flies away on its own capsule, and puts resources into its mules. But they interact like one team - everyone can resurrect everyone, or come to the rescue in destroying a dreadnought after destroying their own. You can also add a combat Drill dozer armed with chemical sprays against infection to the assault on the main hive. As well as waves of ordinary glyphids on infected hives. It would be great. Missions like this can be kept on shared servers rather than local host servers. Or you can make a single remote server out of 3 hosts (3 hosts 3 teams) in order to generalize the power and minimize lags. Flamethrowers will sparkle with new colors. (Alternatively, you can add an overclocking core that changes the color of the flame. It would be funny)

maybe add voicelines that automatically play when you pull out a fatboy grenade launcher,c4 or similar. It would help avoid accidental teamkilling. Maybe make it toggle-able and be on a cooldown so it doesnt get annoying. There may be an opportunity for some funny voicelines if you just put it away again without shooting where your dwarf just goes: "actually nevermind"

Throwing the new Gunner grenade at a Praetorian's open jaw should cause it to swallow the grenade. Special animation as the bullets spray out the center of its body, killing it once the spray stops. Also works on similar medium-sized enemies like Wardens, Menaces etc.
If necessary for balance make this reduce damage to surrounding enemies, to keep the oneshot kill for perfect throws.

Has anyone suggested that the drillers, well, drillers be upgraded to where there is just a map on one side of the drill so you don't have to pull up you map every single time your trying to find something in the walls? Also, the original doesn't have to be removed altogether, I'm saying there should probably be a way to make a whole new set of drill hands with their own set of drawbacks. Or just keep the original drawbacks and just add a map to it.

Another idea. What if we add the ability to pick up the surviving Steve from the mission? For example, take Steve from difficulty 5 to the station, and then go with him and his characteristics to difficulty 3. It will be especially good to take with you the eternal Steve (Grunt Slasher with regeneration). Just either a pen, or a cage with Steve in a capsule. You can hit the floor or wall, or pull it out of the capsule into this cage and put it next to it. And why is there no count of Steves? We must remember each of them.

Suggestion: Experience Overflow
Explanation:
Allow us to gain experience above max character level without promoting them.
If a class is max level and has, as an example, 1000/1000 exp, the next mission you do with him, the class will have 1100/1000 exp. The next time you decide to accept a promotion, it will remove the necessary exp for one promotion, i.e. : after promotion this class will have 100/1000 exp.
Why?
All promotions after 1st are functionally useless, and for "new" players ( 200 hours btw 😐 ) it is much more viable to spend very limited resources on weapons and overclocks. But it does not mean that I will never want to engage with promotion system. However currently, when one of the classes hits a level cap, you are effectively wasting you time every time you play them. This is especially funny because after hitting max level with a class, your "main", the most optimal solution is to play A DIFFERENT CLASS for your "main" class promotion mission.
If you allow for exp overflow, people will be able to enjoy the game and keep playing the classes they like when they want to.

Long time player brand new to the discord. I’ve unlocked all the weapon overclocks but have tons of cosmetics to go. Unfortunately in deep dives and core hunts I get two blank cores and then a cosmetic. If you have all of one core category completed then the second core on those missions should be in the category you don’t have completed as well so you don’t end up with tons of blank cores.
slow sun
After you get the license of a weapon and unlock it, automatically start a video where mission control explains the weapon and cool gameplay is shown. mission control could also say tips (for example, sludge pump can kill macteras easily, the colette can synergize with all the primaries, the c4 can be used on enemies but also to clear treacherous areas)
Why?
So new players know what the weapon does already from the start and they dont need to get on the discord to add a "shooting range" for the 1000th time

i think it would be beneficial if the devs made small posts in here what they are thinking of doing soon (like reworking a biom for example). this could get our gears turning and make us spit out all of our ideas that would otherwise maybe not be said if we didnt know there is a need for them. This wouldnt work for everything like new seasons of course,because those should remain secret until release but it may work for some smaller things.

There's too many dialogue boxes. Wait, Click, wait, click. For a person that does a lot of promotion assignments, it becomes really tedious.
Remove this promotion dialogue box (sorry for bad pic, found on google). I know I'm ready for a promotion, I just got a dialogue box previous to this one telling me that I finished the promotion assignments.
It's okay to show some sort of notification, I just don't want to click, wait, click, wait.

OUTPOST DEFENSE
-New game mode
-New unique item slot
-New score and progression system
-Unique rewards
DEFENSE DIVES
In this new game mode a team is called down into a large map with some smaller and 3 massive caves, in the middle of each is a structure with a DRG data core inside. It´d be similar to Aquarc extraction platform, being equipped with turrets on all sides, a module to dump minerals into, a wave activation button and a upgrades terminal.
In the middle of it is a data core the dwarves have to protect at all costs.
This mission works more like a endless horde mode in which the dwarfs need to fend of increasingly more powerful waves of enemies.
To help them do that DRG grants access to some of their top military grade stuff all time mining is turned into to usually be used elsewhere in the galaxy, but it´ll be handy here.
At every bases upgrade terminal the dwarfs can buy upgrades, both permanent for the entire mission and temporary for themselves, the data core platform or all deployable items.
Additionally they can purchase deployables that are crucial if they want to get far in this mode.
Some examples are:
-Magnetic Sawblade: A item that can be deployed like a pipe with a maximum length. After being placed a saw swings from one end to the other.
The shorter its laid, the faster it travels.
-Electric Floor: Can be placed on the ground and deals low, constant electric damage to any bug standing on it, slowing them down a lot.
It becomes disabled for a short period if too many bugs enter it, causing it to overload.
-Trust Turret: A standard issue platform Turret. Cheap, but unremarkable. Either buy loads of them or make them shine after some upgrades.
-Guard Steve: A cage that keeps teleporting in Steves! Where do they all come from? Who cares?!
They are on a cooldown though and only spawn one at a time per module.
These are just some examples of potentially many!
Devs can go wild here!
Next is how the waves work---
verbal abyss
**OUTPOST DEFENSE**
-New game mode
-New unique item slot
-New score and progres...
After dropping down the dwarfs have a bit of time to mine the Nitra in the caves and get to the first Data Platform to make their first purchases and get ready for the first wave.
After every wave there is a timer that runs down, after which the wave begins. The wave can be manually called for bonus Nitra and Score ahead of time.
Every 5 waves the counter wont appear and the next wave can only be called in manually.
Nobody would want their Score ruined by the limitations of ones attention or bladder.
Waves work similar to normal waves, but they can come with variations the team needs to adapt to.
With increasing difficulty the waves come with cave modifiers or have a larger emphasis on some unit type, like a mactera wave or a exploder wave.
Quick thinking and adjusting base denfense strategy is key later on, as a minute before the wave starts the mission shows what kind of wave it is and what modifiers it has.
Now, how does the team get ammo and purchase stuff at the terminal? With Nitra of course!
The cave itself only offers a limited amount, so inevitably there has to be another source.
As mentioned, one way is to call waves early, giving the team a equivalent amount to time left.
The main way is by completing bonus objectives every wave, with wave completion itself also granting some.
These can be anything from killing 10 grunts in 1 action to transporting a carryable object thats dropped into a adjacent cave and depositing it into the mineral collector while the wave is going on.
These objectives arent crucial, but important if the team wants to keep up in the later rounds.
Everything from resupplies to upgrades and deployables are purchased with Nitra, so teamwork and resource management are important here.
To avoid map clutter a ammo dispenser module would be part of each station that refreshes its charges after a Nitra cost.
These are the basics of the mission.
Next is the progression and rewards---

i think it would be cool if there was an upgrade for the flare gun that made it so if you shot one into an enemy it would either act like a longer ping or mark it on the terrain scanner

So we have a game mode, but what do the players get out of it? Why bother with endless Glyphid waves and not just drink one out with the boys?
There are multiple reasons.
First, a brand new equipment slot! Yes!
Next to pickaxe, weapons, grenades and all that jazz there comes a new slot.
It is reserved for tweaked deployable items balanced to work in the normal missions.
They are earned in the endless mode, in which every 5 or 10 waves, depending on balance and whats more fitting, a empty matrix core can be fed to the Data Core for it to spit out a new deployable blueprint for your personal usage.
This means one gets to bring a electric floor or a additional Steve spawner with you on your missions!
Thats not all though, as after all items are earned this way every additional milestone that would normally grant deployable equipment now grants a set of unique Overclock like upgrades for every item.
You want your electric floor to pulsate every 5 seconds, dealing a lot more damage at once instead of over time?
You want your Sawblade to be very slow, but cause a elemental effect?
Do you want a squish ranged Steve?
All that could be upgrades to earn.
Once all of that is earned the Data Core would then be a excellent place to grind cosmetics, as that is what it would then spit out.
Another reward would be milestone cosmetics and/or a score one can display as a badge next to their player icon to show their skill off.
Something truly great should be granted to those that beat 100 waves!
A special armour set maybe or something else entirely...
Failed to mention that the objective rotates every 5 waves and the level is fully lost once the last core is destroyed, not if all dwarfs die.
If all players die they get to respawn if their traps manage to beat the wave.
So yeah, this is my rough idea for a DRG horde mode.
I think it has a bit of everything, would be fun and would have a reason to exist.
I hope that at least one of these ideas was interesting.

A few suggestions: Until the day I am eaten by a glyphid, finally drink myself to oblivion, or the drop-pod malfunctions and we're dropped into the middle of some nasty nest with next to chance of survival, fighting for glory, and potentially a chunk of gold big as the pod, during a Deep Dive or the deeper we are, where reinforcements and supply pods take a bit longer to reach, and have a chance of missing the specific designated area, landing elsewhere or topping over requiring us to set it straight for valid and full deployment, I'll keep asking for:
Beer resupply! Pretty please?

M1000 Classic Overclock Suggestion
• The M1000 is my personal favorite gun in the game and has some really good overclocks that change its attributes (by attributes i mean rate if fire, reciol, damage, etc) to shred through hoards and do great single target dps but I'd love if there were some more sci fi oriented overclocks. Some examples I could think of that won't be too similar to other guns:
1) holding down left click for an even longer duration actives a special bullet that ricochets many times at high velocity (takes advantage of the awesome cave interior the game has)
2) A higher stun chance or element of some sort like neurotoxin but lower overall dmg (the higher stun chance for crowd control and the neurotoxin idea as I love to try and hit bugs at difficult angles when they are just barely visible however it would be fun to have an overclock that rewards this by applying a lingering affect that eventually kills the bugs)

There would be some downsides to having it instead of molly, like slower deposit speed or something (Maybe you wouldn't be able to take big things like the heart stone so for drill dozer missions you would need molly)
(It would be an optional replacement of molly)
Mainly suggesting it as it would show why you need to recover mini-mules in the mission and why there are more then one

a new secondary, no clue what class it should be on but maybe engineer/gunner?
a sorta overdramatic super big leaf blower
it can push enemies away or slow them down depending on how big they are, but it deals very little damage. it also pushes your character back when used.
alt-fire can set it to full power, causing it to become much more powerful and more damaging at the cost of a quick overheat and using TONS of ammo.
with alt fire you can slow down or even stop yourself from taking large falls at the cost of a good chunk of your secondary ammo, or give yourself an empowered jump.
it should be less effective on teammates so there’s no need to worry about griefers pushing you off cliffs.
this tool would be great for area denial when there’s many big scary bugs that are flooding an area, but it would also sacrifice the backup damage you can do with a powerful weapon in your secondary slot.
it’s also really funny

⚠️ DISCLAIMER: I know that sandwiches have been suggested already, this is suggesting a way to implement sandwiches into the game. ⚠️
I have two ideas; one configuration that makes sense but is a tad uncreative, and one configuration that is more creative but is a bit wacky.
The name of the new area could be:
Dwarven Deli
Cavern Café
Subterranean Sandwiches
On both configurations it generally functions the same, a bunch of containers containing various sandwich fillings and a robot (robot is different in different configurations) named Daryll (Dare-ull). The different ingredients are put into five categories; Bread, Meat, Vegetables, Cheese and The Daily Sauce. The Daily Sauce functions like the Daily Special in the Abyss bar. Each filling has a specific stat boost, Example: Glyphid legs (meat) +12% Attack Damage. You can put one of each filling type on your sandwich and there could potentially be filling combos (combos do not require specific daily sauces) that add extra stat boosts. Daryll and Lloyd do not like each other and you can occasionally catch them throwing beer and food at each other.
Configuration 1 (react with 1️⃣ if you prefer this one): Just like Lloyd, Daryll is a repurposed ADP that runs the new area. There is a flat surface with a central sandwich building board, various containers embedded inside and a sauce bottle built into one of Daryll's little arm things that dispenses the daily sauce.
Configuration 2 (react with 2️⃣ if you prefer this one): Much Unlike Lloyd, Daryll was a defective Drilldozer that despite not having functional wheels managed to escape being salvaged. Daryll is now embedded into the Space Rig leisure area and gets a cool new robot arm for making sandwiches and throwing food at Lloyd. There are various containers that contain fillings attached to Daryll's drill which now is sort of like those rotating sushi places. Bread and daily sauces are off to the side.

This is a gripe about season awards, time sensitive so please read
tldr; award 1 script per rank above 100 until you max out on script
Ok so i grinded out the entire lvl 100 of the season 2 pass... in like a week
i realized time was low and that the mug doubled points, i havent played since the release of the new weapons and i was at like lvl 10 or so in the pass, so i grinded and grinded and gathered all the mugs and got to lvl 100... yay?
except, now i'm still short 7 things in the cosmetic tree because the math on the script awards is flawed
last 3 days i got all point challenges and no script challenges even with rerolling per day (thats 6 chances gone)
WHY OH WHY, the event pass should award you 1 script per rank above 100 until you max your tree out.
there has to be some variable tracking the amount of script earned in total, so why not just write into the 100+ rewards with the 500 credits that if you are missing max script, AWARD ONE SCRIPT
this takes out the RNG and actually awards those who worked their butt off like me, instead i feel penalized for doing too good and that's a horrible feeling that i don't need in my gaming life

Ok here's a big one
New mission type :
"Hoxxes takeover"
This suggestion is quite significant and would pretty much be suited for the center point of a large update. It is intended to further the endgame capabilities of Deep Rock for those who enjoy the grind while pushing their optimized builds and their skill to the limit.
The mission type would come with a new terminal or be launched from the same terminal as deep dives.
It would be broken up into 5 stages of scaling difficulty :
Stage 1 - haz 4.5
Stage 2 - haz 5
Stage 3 - haz 5.5
Stage 4 - haz 6
Stage 5 - haz 6 with 2 guaranteed negative modifiers
Instead of refreshing weekly, the mission would randomize it's objectives and the stage types (egg hunt, morkite, etc) every time it was completed or on a 30 min timed reset (if technical difficulties arise).
As it's reward, players would receive whatever they've gathered from the stages (with the same restrictions as DDs) alongside a new type of material that they could use to reroll a new stat called "tuning".
Tuning would be specific to each piece of equipment that can be modded, every type of equipment (weapons/armor/etc) would share the same "pool" of small bonus stats(each equipment type would have 4-6 mini stat bonuses like "-0.3s reload speed" or "-0.5s shield recharge delay timer",etc.)
Only one tuneup can be applied to a given equipment at a time and only 3 can be active across all of your equipment (only 3 tuneups across your weapons, pickaxe, armor and class tools) spending the newly obtained takeover materials would let you reroll (or obtain for the first time) one of the selected equipment's tuneups.
Weapon tuning can be disabled in normal mission types (non DD-EDD-HT missions) if player elitism comes into play.

Can Regnerate Glypid armor every 2 seconds in an area and replacing missing parts (all armor gets 25% hp back per pulse with the exception of nemesis and dreadnoughts and other enemies that need to loose armor to damage them at all.
It Does heal grunt and slasher armor full per pulse but the area should be rather small , it makes pretorians and guards and other armored enemies a lot harder to deal with/ Encourages armor penetration add ons.
It doesnt heal enemy hp though unlike the warden.

every player has their own lobby slot machine with a persistent jackpot which can be paid into by the host and visiting players. every pull costs 10 credits and puts 5 credits in the jackpot, which is displayed prominently on the top of the machine. most pulls are losses, but there's a (very!) small chance you'll get that jackpot, and the amount will be credited to the winning player with a bit of fanfare.
the maximum amount in the jackpot should probably be limited to discourage server hopping and farming - say a max of 500. also if you play too much before missions (taking too much time or spending over a certain threshold), a chain is spawned over the slot machine's arm upon returning, like how doretta appears in the equipment bay when you bring her head back. interacting with the chain on just makes the arm stop early and the chain clink a bit

Please make a mission type that helps with endgame players trying to farm machine events for overclocks/cosmetic cores, where there is a guaranteed machine event as a side objective. At a certain point the only rewards players get are these events, and farming them requires resetting a mission over and over again relying on RNG to get what they need, so I think it would be a really good idea if machine events were a side objective or if a new mission type had one guaranteed in some way so people don't have to reset levels over and over and rely on RNG to get one.

Aand another set of Tool Oc ideas
I know, not planned, probably won't happen, "gotta keep tools consistent", but hey a man can dream. One for each class cause yeah.
Grappling gun :
"Kinetic recharge"(Unstable oc)
+The grappling hook's recharge scales with scout's movement speed,from 75%(at walk speed) up to 250% (when the scout is practically free falling and etc).
-0.5 second longer base recharge.
-5m shorter max grapple length.
Shield Generator :
"Defense matrix"(Balanced oc)
+Enemy projectiles that hit the barrier are deflected to the nearest enemy for 40 puncture damage.
-3 second longer shield recharge timer.
Turrets :
"Magnetic resupply" (balanced oc)
+The engineer can shoot his turret to refill it's ammo at a rate of 1 bullet/shotgun pellet for 3 ammo.
-25 less max turret ammo capacity
-1s longer build time
C4 :
"Breaching Charge" (Balanced oc)
- 2 more max c4
- c4 sticks to enemies
- 50% faster projectile velocity/ better projectile arc
- 100 less aoe damage
- 0.5m shorter aoe radius

Honestly, I feel like more OCs should have some form of cosmetic variation, like how NTP has green shell explosions. An example I can think of is the Inferno OC for the breach cutter having plasma that glows fiery orange like the sun

More types of boss enemies used in Elimination missions other than Dreadnoughts and their variants. Here are 2 ideas I have been thinking up but there could be more.
Qronar Kingback:
Shellback but faster, bigger, and meaner. Unbreakable shell armor and medium armored underbelly/mouth (like a praetorian’s armor) except for a lightly armored weakpoint on the end. It rolls until it gets stunned by a high impact (crashing into a wall at high speed or a very high power explosive such as a satchel charge or hyper prop) when it then reveals its lightly armored underbelly. Acid attack replaced with a mactera like acid bolt, has a little bit more base health than a dread twin. Can possibly summon Qronar younglings to fight alongside it.
Mactera Flying Fortress:
Quad jawed Mactera with a goo bomber body. Unbreakable body armor with armored goo sac weak points. Can shoot 4 poison bolts or do goo bombing runs. Can summon other Mactera to fight alongside it such as grabbers or brundles. Around the same health as a base dread.

More biome-specific bugs. When I go to a frost biome, I wanna see ice maggots that freeze you on death, ice glyphid grunts, ice oppressors, ice bulk detonators, etc. When I go to the fire biome, I wanna see bugs that breathe fire and light the ground on fire when they die.

So, I'm certain this has been discussed before, and I'm not certain if this is the right place for this question (but not sure where else to ask)- but are there plans to implement full crossplay for DRG in the future? I'm a Steam player, and I'd love to be able to play with my friends on PS, so I'm just wondering if that's in the plans- and perhaps how the community might be able to help push for such functionality? I love this game, and I happily support it however I can, I just want to rock and stone with my friends on other systems :)

Imagine a blending machine in the Abyss Bar where you can take 2 beers and mix em up. (Excluding Buff Beers and Leaf Lovers)
After the process is done, the beer in the machine is poured into a cup that is seen in a victory move, drank then thrown at something or dropped on the ground. The fee for using the machine is 30 credits - 50.
LLoyd will Beep and shake his head at you if you try to add a buff beer or a leaf lovers special into the mix of a beer already. Even Mission Control will be disugusted by your actions.
Lines for Mission Control. (Can be changed by the Devs if they want.)
"Seriously? You try to add a Leaf Lover or a daily special to the mixer?"
"Management has the power and will to fire you from the Company if you continue this. Consider yourself warned."
"Are you even a Dwarf? You sure as hell aren't acting like it!"
Lines for your dwarves:
"I wonder what Karl would think if he saw these beers."
"This beer mixture is in honor of Karl!"
Allow the Dwarves to bring 1 Steeve back to the Spacerig, let your new Glyphid friend/pal roam around the rig and explore while also keeping him away from elevators and Lloyd. This is a privilege not a right as Steeve is expendable. Have the choice to take your Glyphid out on missions with you, customize him with cosmetics like you would with a dwarf. This will cost around 1,000 credits for a regular Grunt, 5,000 credits for a Slasher and 10,000 credits for the Armored Glyphid Guard.
If you do not take him onto a mission, he will be waiting for you inside of one of the 4 bunk rooms, near the weapons terminal or the mission terminal. Something that management has thought to increase the morale of you Glyphid beast masters down in the ranks of DRG.

Nemesis Robots, upcoming S3 Infected Glyphids, and non-infected Glyphids should all attack each other, as well as the Dwarves. Perhaps hope to see some of those new parasitic worms infect the Glyphids.
Another game franchise (Halo) does very well with multi-faction, large scale wars with the AI fighting each other, and proves to be entertaining. (flood vs covenant vs humans vs forerunner)
This would also help the robotic enemies be less of an annoyance for players, if they can be somewhat of a help to the dwarves, while also being a menace.

General Idea for a New enemy subtype (like biome specific ones):
A Enemy type that has "stealth" properties to make itself invisible but is still noticable like the ghost but is missing the particles of it thus is hard to notice. But it is only in its "aggro state" invisible so if you spot it or when it spawns its visible for a short time. And it still makes sounds/ranged projectiles are like usual.

Got an Idea from the new Season: If you die to the Pleague by any infected enemy or enviromental hazard you turn against your team Controlled by AI (but cant walk to counter the AI problem for humanoids that was already mentioned (and the damage output should be deadly already )) and you have to be shot down by your team once more to revive you like you normally do.

This has probably been mentioned a billion times, but you should be able to buy any beer at any time. The rotating special beer can still be there, but you should have the option to buy the other game-boosting beers at a higher cost when they aren't on special. I'm almost always running missions for assignments, which means I have no actual choice in what mission I play next. When I'm assigned a morkite mission, and the beer special is Backbreaker Stout, I would gladly pay a higher price -- say 10 Starch Nut and 6 Malt Star -- to get Dark Morkite instead.

Idea: Reverse escort mission. You defend a drill rig or deployable refinery from a machine attack, they use what is essentially a reverse engineered drill dozer built in their style.

Saw the trailer and had an idea for a mission type: Secure Nest
Miners are required not to gather much of anything save for some Nitra, but just to secure a perimeter around the nest of... something. In that nest are eggs that absolutely cannot hatch or be disturbed -- the things inside are nasty, and the mother that would come to defend them would be even nastier.
Mission consists of several waves of bugs approaching the area while the eggs are chemically sabotaged, or frozen for extraction.
If the mission is successful, mission control sends down a drop pod and urges you to strap the eggs to Molly and get out of there before the mother gets back.
There could also be a small chance for the eggs to hatch when you're halfway or three-quarters of the way through the mission -- mission control freaks out a little and sends down a drop pod for you. The new mission is to escape while being pursued by two dreadnoughts.
If the nest takes too much damage, this mission ends with the mother (offscreen) letting out a colossal, eerie cry and causing the screen to shake.

New protracted mission type, similar to the Deep Dive for the new Season.
The essence of the mission is to strengthen the stronghold on the planet, its defence, the collection of materials and resources to improve automatic defence, automatic collection of resources and pumping facilities.
- Collect:
Gather new resources to fortify your stronghold and buy consumables, as well as new gear or upgrades to your base gear. - Defend:
Plan your tactics ahead - the waves of enemies are intensifying and their number is growing relentlessly due to the noise and killing of bugs. We must not forget about ammunition: you are alone in this cave, and no one - not even the leadership - will help you, so you will have to produce everything on the spot. - Improve:
Upgrade not only yourself, but also the defence complex, build walls and turrets of various types, and also upgrade them.

That works too. Maybe the pickaxe could have a separate mode that takes a special button combo on console and on pc be another button where you pull out a sword so the pickaxe can focus on mining upgrades and the sword/axe would be combat focused melee. I'd love to go full dwarf mode once every now and then
And the swords could have it's own ammo for special attacks and for the upgrade tree thered be 3 special attack options like spiral attack, hammer down that does a big shock wave in front of you, and maybe a multi stabing attack where you thrust your sword/axe/hammer in front of you multiple times

Glyphid Nuclear Detonator: A Bulk Detonator but instead of dealing huge damage and shooting out smaller explosives upon death, the Nuclear Detonator now leaves a huge AoE effect that constantly damages things inside of it, similar to the fat boy OC for the Engie’s grenade launcher
Glyphid Acid Queen: A sort of “commander” of normal Acid Spitters, the Acid Queens are larger, can summon a few Acid Spitters to back it up, and acts like the Glyphid Menace, shooting acid at you then retreating into the walls
Nuclear Spitballer: A Spitballer that shoots slower than a normal one but the projectiles it shoots now has a lasting AoE upon impact
These are a few ideas I had

New animations/interaction & voice lines with "Heavy Objects" e.g. Aquarqs, Jadiz Bittergems, etc.
When depositing said minerals or "Heavy Objects", a more immersive animation and satisfying grinding sounds at a Minehead's shredders or deposit slots, as it goes in, animation however being cheesable, if you will, meaning you can cancel it mid-animation like most animations currently in the game, the mineral still being deposited, as it is now, just faster, an optional animation for immersion.
As for when depositing or trying to deposit say a Jadiz, in Molly, instead, a more funny (?) animation and dwarves punching or kicking the mineral in (?), venting some of their frustration with Molly, saying under their beard how they'd rather kick the Mule or that their foot slipped and did kick the Mile, a longer animation, but rewarding, with a much increased mineral yield perhaps and an option to break-up it up, Jadiz, Compressed Gold etc. with a pickaxe/charged attack or two, collecting chunks instead, but with regular/current yield.

Can we get a mode where we just go in and kill wave after wave of bugs? Instead of mining and all that. Like a survival mode kind of thing. And we can even have modifiers like nemesis and stuff.

A brief window of time after receiving friendly fire, where you can press X to change the angry "you shot me" line into an explanatory "my bad, I ran in front of you" one. Should be purely optional.

An in universe type of social media where dwarves can complain about management and talk to other dwarves. I think it would be funny to have some talk with management and tell them what we think in an immersive way. The platform would be called something like "Deep Talk Galactic". You could also add use to the miner community monitor by the pickaxe and equipment station by adding something like this. I also think it would be fun to have little news headlines about some community feats and some little jokes shared with others posted there. Just food for thought

Shield Battery Booster feels pretty lacking, so here's a pitch:
Pressing Reload switches to "Booster Mode" turning off your shields and boosting Damage, Velocity and Rate of Fire, but generates heat throughout the duration, even if you're not firing. Shields begin charging after the gun finishes cooling down, Booster Mode can only be activated at Full Shield.

jade shard
Woke up from a crazy DRG dream; was running a morkite mission & we came across an event that bored a hole through a giant cube of bismor with a laser, looked kind of like a big piece of crystalline bismuth from real life. We had to protect the laser equipment like an uplink from the Molly repair missions while it melted a hole through the crystal. Once the wave of enemies were over & the drilling finished, we were able to enter the giant crystal bismor, turned out it was a massive geode with a hardened shell! Inside we were able to find our way to the heart of the structure & collect what management referred to as a "Bismorium Seed-stone" (guessing the whole structure sprung from a smaller crystal building onto itself, like real-life crystal seeding with diamond pressing). I made some crude drawings to go along with this wall of text as a visual aid, I drew it when I had just woke up so I wouldn't lose what I remembered so the finer detail is a little sloppy.

Just funny things for your own little room. It uses the hosts room in multiplayer btw

Knowing that the perks are going to need another rework, I think you need to make perk points more scarce. The milestones you release in each season mean very little to most players. To make it friendlier to greenbeards you can allow perk points to be reallocated for either free or make it cost resources.
Or you could just make some perks let you dump a bunch if points into. “I got 100 perk points in my It’s a Bug Thing perk and every loot bug on the map dies when I exit the drop pod.”

Corrosive Sludge Pump overclock: Toxic Gas Blast (Balanced)
Using a highly experimental mixture that's prone to volatile evaporation and a few system modifications, the charged shot is replaced with a high pressure gas blast. The gas blast consumes a little more ammo than the regular charged shot. The gas blast is very short ranged and does no direct damage, but stuns enemies for a long time and poisons them, as well as leaving behind a neurotoxin cloud. Flying enemies are pushed back by the blast, and crucially, the blast can be used to deflect enemy projectiles such as Mactera's spit, Spitballer projectiles, and even Dreadnought fireballs. Normal shot is unaffected.
Taking Dyse Nozzle makes the gas blast do a small amount of direct damage, and Atomizer Nozzle makes the resulting neurotoxin cloud bigger. Supersaturation increases the duration of the poison effect as well as the cloud, and Protein Disruption Mix causes the gas to slow down enemies. Spillback Extension and Improved Spooling Mechanism work normally.
- Charged shot is replaced with a short-range toxic gas blast that stuns and poisons enemies, can be used to reflect projectiles, and forms a neurotoxin cloud. Does not affect the normal shot.
- Takes more ammo to use than the regular charged shot, which is unavailable.
This gives Driller a way to be helpful against Dreadnoughts and Mactera by reflecting their projectiles as well as providing a good amount of functionality, but is by no means a straight upgrade due to losing out on the regular charged shot.

Local bugs ate all the red sugar! You can still find some in their bellies, but if you're really going to eat it, you are probably an addict.
Like golden bugs, but red sugar and not guaranteed. 50% chance to drop a red sugar crystal and 50% of that for larger value: 5 and 10 hp from medium bugs, 10 and 15 for big. Small bugs can either drop nothing, or only base 5, or just 1 hp.
velvet obsidian
Mission modifier: "Overtime bonus"
"Management strangely recognised the dangers of this particular mission, and offered a bonus to every overdid objective and side-objective, call it a way to reward your efforts for the company if you will."
Ever since i laid my hands on this game i couldn't wrap my head around not getting a bonus for overdoing the objectives
the first few times i played i 100% completed each cave and grabbed every ounce of morkite, every pebble of hollomite, every godforsaken gunk seed and so on, and yet, it never actually mattered beyond actually completing the objective
and while i'd appreciate this being a every-mission bonus, the thought of this being broken, exploitable or simply "too op" is looming over me as i write, so, i figured it would be better off as a mission modifier, after all, i don't think it's any less exploitable or broken than golden bugs.

New dreadnought: Glyphid Bulk Obliterator. A 2.0 version of the original Detonator. Idk what it does or what it looks like but it sounded cool and I think everyone would be happy with a new dreadnought.

New gunner primary idea: The railgun. I have 2 ideas. One where it shoots once and has a cooldown or another where it can shoot multiple times and has an overclock that makes the first idea exist. Would do a ton of damage but have low ammo. Might have a zoom capability with a scope or might not.
edit: Make it be able to pierce would be cool aswell.

Considering the theme of the season 3, here is a warning for it!
"Contagious Outbreak"
"Our scanners are picking up huge viral activities in the caverns. Proceed with caution!"
These caves will be filled with new infected glyphids and e.t.c
New debuff: "Glyphid disease"
This debuff will make dwarves weaker over time, with 4 stages.
Stage 1: Small melee damage reduction
Stage 2: Melee damage reduction increased, increased recoil and reduced accuracy, max hp decreased (shown with a yellow bar at the end of the hp bar)
Stage 3: Stronger debuffs, small movement speed down.
Stage 4: Dwarf starts losing max health over time, stronger debuffs.
To cure this disease R&D made special medicine, each dwarf starts with 2 charges and everyone gets 1 charge refilled each RESSUPLY, not the resupply charge, the whole resupply.
These meds reduce the debuff stack and have less effect the stronger the disease is.
It takes some time to use them so u can't just use them in the heat of battle.
Debuff is stacked by:
Taking damage from infected glyphids
Taking damage from gas clouds that spawn in the area
Very slowly over time
These missions will have a higher multiplier since this might be really tough

An idea for April Fools' Day, for one (?) day;
When you wake up (log in), you're drunk in the Memorial Hall, "damn you, Deep Rock Galactic!". And when customising your loadout, weapons, that is you can select and enable all of the perks for your primary weapon, secondary, pickaxe, etc. maybe including character perks, if it isn't too problematic or time-consuming at this point.
Grenades are infinite use too, and both Deep Dive's and Elite Deep Dive's stages have all of the mission modifiers e.g. Lethal Enemies, Swarmageddon, Critical Weakness, Rival Presence, Golden Bugs, Low Gravity, Rich Atmosphere etc. all enabled for every stage, or if it's more doable this way, every mission "refresh", there is one such mission node with every mission modifier, instead of the Deep Dives.
I guess what I'm proposing is utter chaos for one day, haha. 🥳

I would really love a ready check, if anyone has played Barotrauma, that's a great example. A simple command to ask if everyone is ready, a command to respond in the affirmative, and a command to respond in the negative. It doesn't have to ask about specific things that the team would be ready for, just a way to check if everyone is generally ready to proceed, without everyone having to stop, open the chat, and send "R"

I'm sure this has been mentioned before but I can't stress this enough:

If people are disagreeing to this suggestion because players need to know where they have been, then please allow us to add custom map markers to be looked at on the map. Then make flares disappear over time.
Map markers are far more important than having litter all over the cave.

Just in case we ever get a Mactera Dreadnought of any kind in the future, please let us freeze it like normal Macteras and Dreadnoughts.

And to balance it out, can only freeze it when the weak point is exposed like on a normal Dreadnought.

"I'll kill anything with more legs than two, except for Steeve of course!"

A solution to Promotions
Gameplay-wise: There is reason to promote each character, ONCE. Access to the Tritilyte Key, Overclocks, and Deep Dives.
There's validity in climbing the experience gains in order to unlock the various other aesthetic customizations, like pickaxes and the Scale Brigade armor, but the game demands an extra assignment and spending resources to do this. For newcomers, this is a huge handicap, as those resources are needed for weapons and upgrades across the board.
Essentially, a promotion is an experience-gating 4-mission assignment (blocking your ability to focus on other specific - and far more important - assignments to complete) that requires resources (needed for upgrades and purchasing overclocks) just so you have the ability to gain experience again, which literally does nothing but give you colored stars above your character (and the occassional new aesthetic upgrade).
It's epeen. Promotions are epeen. And you spend extra time and resources that could have better been spent on gameplay quality, to get it. Wat.
[SUGGESTION] When a dwarf gets promoted, the player can choose one of three different weapon overclocks for that class, and one of three aesthetic overclock for that class. That's right, TWO overclocks (one gameplay-focused, one cosmetic-focused), helping the player diversify that class they promoted with better opportunities and style. I'd be far more interested to actually invest my time in promoting my dwarves, because it would suddenly be valuable to the gameplay, and would help counteract the ever-increasing time-gating (because we're only seeing more and more content being added, not less).

Cosmetic and Gameplay (I.E Weapons, Equipment, Grenades, etc.) Loadout Discrepancy:
Pretty much allow us to either separate cosmetics from gameplay builds or lock them in together through probably a simple button in the wardrobe. Say someone wants to make 5 distinct Gameplay Loadouts but also wants to use their current Dwarf look, make cosmetic loadouts A - E for example and gameplay loadouts 1 - 5 that way you could use them in any such combination like A4, A3, C1, etc.
It would just be a nice Quality of Life distinction for those who want to just make cosmetic setups that aren't synced with their gameplay loadouts. Some might apply various loadouts to the same Dwarf or various Dwarves to the same loadout and making it easier to just have to click a few buttons is much easier than having to rewire their gameplay or cosmetic loadouts each time.

I know this was probably suggested more than once, but I would really love it if the new season also brought some performance improvements. My games used to run silky-smooth pre-reason 2, now there are noticable fps drops when just looking at the drop pod. Also, the random crashes are literally the worst

I know new music is a bit of a long ways away, but I think swarm music that uses leitmotifs from the ambient music would be dope
vocal python
my humble suggestion would be to not allow the fuel rods to spawn on vertically above the uplink, thus making the mission unable to be completed. Alternatively if the fuel rod connection cables could pass through the uplink this wouldn't occur..? (I apologize for the low resolution)
[EDIT: tried digging obviously, in the first picture they're at the same height as the drop pod, and when I tried digging even lower(picture two) both fell at the same time so they couldn't be separated no matter how I tried.]
honest harness
The weapon loadout icons should be upgraded to include icons for every mission type and warning. I would prefer to categorize my weapon builds this way, so when I'm joining something like a rival presence, dreadnaught, swarmagedon, ect, I can easily select the loadout that has that same icon. That way I know I'm bringing my best weapon build for that specific game.

Have the dwarves trying to do a parody of Mission Control voice

Similar idea as the previous ones right here: Have MC queestion us as to what we're doing when we wear the mask.
Examples:
(when equiping) "What... is that mask?!" "Who in R&D had this idea?!"
(when kicking barrels in the launch bay) "Fair warning, identity theft is a serious offense, even more when used to commit a felony" (or smt like that, anything that would express MC's displeasure regarding the impersonation or the implication that he's scary (or happiness, if he likes to be feared ig!))
near glacier
I don't know the implications but adding crossplay to the steam version would be great, I have family and friends on consoles, a bunch of my closer friends are all on Steam/Steam Decks for example, I'm sure I'm not the only example of people who'd benefit from such a feature
jaunty widget
its a long shot but I would very much like a shanty system. hear me out, similar to sea of thieves. (holding down a button, or smth, and start singing, while other dwarves can join in in different keys. have a few different songs to sing, such as one about Karls heroics, steeve, digging, beer, etc. but in the case of multiple of the same dwarfs in the same party, let them sing in different keys based on who started singing first. i think this would bring life and fun to the caves of hoxes. I know im relating this to other games but something like the joinable emotes from fortnite. and yes, I know there is limited button space on controllers for this, which is why maybe and instrument to switch to. or a singing icon (when in switch gun/ability menu on key pad) something about dwarven shanties is just the best hands down. pls. consider 😉

Different Downed State animations.
Nothing Gory or too violent but some difference by what killed you or variations of the normal one.
Ideas:
Killed by:
Normal means: Standard, One that let you stay passed out, Holding your hands about your head to protect your face from being eaten by grunts/Swarmers. And a new voiceline: " Heeelp they tear on My beard, it hurts, get them out".
Poison/Acid/suffocate on low oxygen: Laying on the ground on your back with panting noises like you try to catch a breath.
Heat: Sitting around with a temperature protection blanket like you would if you actually burned large portions of your skin to stop you from cooling out. And you Try to talk but only stutter iin a gibberish way.
Explosion: Either a Pile of Ash or a "knockback" feature that throws you around as rag doll leaving you unconcious on the ground.
Leech: You get eaten (kinda) and come out in a sludge pump like liquid but more greenish.
Getting crushed by someting: Nomal downed state but a new voiceline: "My back Hurts".
Range: Sit down and hold your knee and say: "I think its time to retire, since i took a shot to the knee" (some reference there 😉 .
Friendly fire: Getting on the ground and taking out a first aid kit with some neat animations (but you still need a revive) and starting to mumble insults(mild ones) depending on wich class killed you like: "If driller wants Rocks he get some but on his head, If engi thinks he is so smart then he should replace that guy in mission control instead of shooting at us then he can talk as much as he wants, if Gunner Shoots me once more i take his weapons and sell it as scrap, if Scout keeps shooting at me i will make sure he will join the next mission in a wheelchair."

can we please have different animations for fastening the Omeran Heartstone or Data Rack to the Mule instead of just using the old tin can? would be interesting to see our character quickly yank some harnesses and buckle them over the Heartstone or Rack.

A third type of turret (?) 
I'm pretty sure I am not the only one who thought or felt at some point that it'd be nice to have the option to use a self-deploying turret or turrets, can't hurt to post it, so, though, balancing it would be quite a bit of pain.
A self-assembling turret from salvaged or repurposed ||Infernal|| Rival tech. with a reference or two to the event or season, Deep Rock Galactic's very first seasonal event and substantial addition to lore or universe (?).

Expand current in-mission events pool.
Uh, we've had a problem with the cargo rocket, we're sending another in, restart the refinery as soon as you strap it in, we're detecting a wave-- four supply pods inbound, watch your thick heads-- and keep up the good work, there's a hefty bonus waiting if you pull this off! And if not . . . well, don't expect a promotion anytime soon, if you call the drop-pod and be on your way.
e.g. an event for refinery missions where the cargo rocket fails to deliver its payload, say, due to a glyphid that had latched onto the cargo rocket, the probability of the event increased drastically for every glyphid that's near the cargo rocket as it takes off, now requiring the miner crews to clear the platform before and instead of rushing to punch the button and send it off.
A leak, all liquid morkite disappearing, a "comet" greeting Rig 17, the cargo rocket with a trail of liquid morkite following it and splashing the windows (add a few stains of liquid morkite to the Rig 17 visible from the lobby as sort of canon semi-canon event (?)), the bug(s) thinking it was a dwarf finally starting to bleed.

Addition to the mission Control headset cosmetic: have the voicelines have a filter while its equipped
snow remnant
This suggestion will sound weird but I think the upcoming Mission Control mask is genius and this type of cosmetic needs to be more common. When you see the amount of suggestions directly connected to it, it's only fair imo. Especially when you consider the fact that a good amount of players will not be able to obtain after the end of the event and until the next one.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the silly hats we got for old events but this MC mask is at another level

Drop pod / Resupply pod calling policy for online matches:
Pls add to OPTIONS > GAMEPLAY right below GAME SERVER NAME restrictive options who can call the drop pod and resupply pod during online match. Obvious variants are Host only / Friends / Everyone. For situations when all authorised players are crippled - when restricted to Host only / Friends - The Everyone policy would apply (or simply next policy in line - which could be also an option) Also, if an unauthorised person would like to call a drop / resupply pod, it would instead have unique voice line hinting so.
I believe this would further improve the friendly "bro-shooter" nature of the game since it would prevent people being angry to each other when some potentially unwanted situation would occur during a match... (Sorry if this has already been suggested - I haven t found it here.)

Let us start promotion assignment on 20lvl while keeping the actual promotion at 25lvl.
Simple change, but that margin would give us some flexibility in picking dwarves when i.e. it happens more than one character reached max level or when happens one class is necessary to one mission at the moment, etc.

sharp river
There have been suggestions for housing/decorating systems before, so I'd like to suggest a few collectable items that could tie into something like that.
Plushies:
Plush versions of various enemies and DRG robots (you can squeeze them). Strictly banned aboard the Space Rig, to prevent employees from growing attached. Thus, the only place to get them is the expensive "Smuggler Store", accessible only when one of the Rig's text screens randomly "glitches out". Each time this happens, only a few items are selected to be available, and purchasing any gives you a different location aboard the Rig to go and collect them from an unmarked box. The Store can also carry different items.
Bottled Beers:
Unregulated drinking is a worry for the company, which is why bottled versions of the bar's beers are only ever shipped in and sold as motivational and commemorative items. A few are available for purchase for obscene prices each time a big update drops. Except for Leaf Lover's, that one is available each time, and also free.
Minifigures:
Refining residue turned into small morale boosters, pretty much just in-game models of stuff with fancy bases added. Available as random purchases from a capsule machine. There's a limit on how many capsules you can purchase each week, with the price increasing with each subsequent one (resetting on the machine refilling). Perhaps the bases can be colored to denote rarity?
dry cargo
I’d like to be able to see the mission control room on the spacerig, maybe it rarely opens up after he says something about needing the bathroom or something. Or you can get into it with wormhole deluxe.
restive garnet
Not sure if this has been suggested but it made me think of it after seeing a clip where multiple people were fixing Doretta while it doesn't stack.
But perhaps engineers could get a unique thing going where they can repair anything just a bit faster. Doretta, mules, set up the connections to repair drop pod, loot boxes, pipelines, etc.
Perhaps make it so you can switch out turret for a building hammer, or maybe a smaller bosco variant that helps you build and is a weaker but mobile kinda turret. Either way I think it would make engineer feel a lot more natural than just having special gadgets. Especially since every class has their own special/experimental gadgets/weapons going on.
rain sparrow
There are a lot of seasonal events linked to holidays and seasons, but I think some events that were just made by the game would be fun.
Gold fest:
A celebration of a Dwarf’s favorite mineral.
A new brew called Golden Grog is available in the bar, like the Best Wurst Beer, it is only for fun and gives no advantages.
There is atleast 1 of the gold modifiers (Gold Rush/Golden Bugs) available at a time over all available missions (Like how there is always an available Rival Presence warning)
Gold gives more credits per piece mined (from 2 to 3).
Crassus Detonators have a higher chance to spawn (not ridiculously high, but they should spawn every now and then instead of being extremely rare).
Compressed gold also has a higher chance to appear in missions, and gold veins are even more common then they already are.
Cosmetic ideas could be a compressed gold hat, a golden helmet of some kind, or a hat based off the Crassus Detonator.
bright rose
New protracted mission type, similar to the Deep Dive for the new Season.
The essence of the mission is to strengthen the stronghold on the planet, its defence, the collection of materials and resources to improve automatic defence, automatic collection of resources and pumping facilities.
- Collect:
Gather new resources to fortify your stronghold and buy consumables, as well as new gear or upgrades to your base gear. - Defend:
Plan your tactics ahead - the waves of enemies are intensifying and their number is growing relentlessly due to the noise and killing of bugs. We must not forget about ammunition: you are alone in this cave, and no one - not even the leadership - will help you, so you will have to produce everything on the spot. - Improve:
Upgrade not only yourself, but also the defence complex, build walls and turrets of various types, and also upgrade them.
Rock & Stone!
bronze crest
After you kill an enemy a set amount of times you unlock skins to kinda look like them(it would differ based on difficulty like crassus=10 and grunts=100)
hushed fossil
Cosmetic item where it's a gem in the eyesocket or something
fathom void
A new unique ennemis for dense biozone (the thing with corals)
The crab have his weak point on the eye he would fit the ocean/coral style of the biome and the ennemis would have a big armor all over the body but it would also have great damage and support options to help glyphid by tanking the majority of damages (here a image of a vampire crab which in my opinion have the best colour for that biome and theme)
Lobster could also be fun

April fools or even a permanent perk with cooldown: Where you can fart at a fire source to act like a temporary flamethrower (with Cooldown)

Smart rifle overclock to make it target weekpoints (with some down side)

Would like to suggest a new tier 1 upgrade option for scout crossbow:
Does terrain damage, to help drop ceiling ore veins. Does minimal damage to creatures (to help offset/balance to other explosive arrow options)
Would also really appreciate if they brought back the original "SilverFox" hair color scheme. It was originally brown hair+mustache+eyebrows:

New Minigun OC:
Name: Icarus Thruster
Type: Unstable
- Faster Rate of fire (+4 RoF)
- Less spin up time (-1)
- Emits a cone of fire from barrel while heat gauge is red (8Lx3W max range)
- 35% recoil
- 15% Heat generation
- Player is knocked back from recoil
- Overheat burns player and all enemies around.
Flavor Text:
Converted from a military aircraft and slapped on by some madman. You've seen this send many dwarfs flying into into their graves. Still, watching all those bugs burn is a joy seldom matched.
Fun factor:
-combos into heat builds while making overheat risky.
-allows small jump boosts from recoil making escape a little easier and falls less dangerous.
-Trades heavier recoil (making long range harder) for better short range engagement.

New active perk
"Terrain Sparker"
Press " " while holding the terrain scanner to scan the area for resources. They stay marked for some time(increases with levels)
Resources include:
Nitra
Gold
Special minerals

Pretty long cooldown, might be really useful on morkite missions where you can't find that last goddamn chunk.
Or for scouts to check the area.
Resources are highlighted in the world too, but their highlight disappears faster, they still get highlighted on the scanner

A small niche issue: whenever you ping a silicate harvester, the terrain scanner will become red (as if it were an enemy) and your character treats it as if it were a hostile enemy, saying generic voicelines like "Bugs!", "Crawlers!", "Kill it!", etc. I think adding some unique voicelines when interacting with a silicate harvester would be a pretty neat and minor addition to the game. Here is an image as an example of the issue

More of a cosmetic thing but maybe armor breaking/showing damage as you get attacked more and more often? It'll stay like that regardless of getting revived or not. Purely cosmetic, I thought it would look cool to go in look spick and span and then coming back looking like rambo at the end of the movie

Suggestion for accessibility: 'Tap to hold' option
Right now certain activities require you to hold down E to do something (e.g. building pipelines, repairing mules). I would like to see an option that can be toggled in the settings so that tapping E once will be treated as holding the button, and tapping it again releases it.
For people who suffer from RSI, wrist pain, finger joint pain etc., holding down a button, even for short periods of time like 10 seconds, can cause unnecessary pressure and discomfort, and changing it to a tap/toggle system significantly alleviates that discomfort.
For an example of a game that does this, see The Long Dark; that game involves a lot of pressing and holding to do things.
near glacier
There could be an achievement for completing a solo mission on haz 3 or higher without Bosco
tribal chasm
mechanical addition for m1k electric focus shot:
While an enemy is electrified via charge shot, a regular shot to another nearby enemy within 12 meters will cause a brief, weak lightning arc between the two enemies, electrifying any foes between them. (Triggers multiple times with blowthrough)
(Alternatively enemies killed by the gun just become electrical bombs and explode on death)
mechanical adjustment for gk2 Homebrew Powder:
the weapon deals between 80% and 140% damage based on the users current movement speed. Hipfiring does not inhibit movement speed. slowing down returns the damage to normal.
second wind perk, descending ziplines, hook speed boost, any kill speed boost, dash and falling speed all boost the damage temporarily and can stack.
this might be a lot more fun for scout speedsters than just damage based on luck.

Rewards even if the host closes the game. (like when you get kicked) Over the last days 2 out of 5 rounds i get a DC with the host then nowhere to be found in the game list. Also its most of the time either late mid to end game. others who i played with also had this issue in the last weeks so its likely that there are trolls that abuse that. I remeber them but it still happens a lot since there always more. Its annoying if you play a mission for 20-30 minutes just to get nothing. (and the game runs mostly fine and it would be a wierd quirk of the game if it crashes for the host 90% either mid in the last swarm or when you are right infront of the drop pod.

Multiple suggestions:

Minimized viewmodel mode (like TF2)
Give sentries (and bosco) little hats
Goggles / eye covering headgear becomes eyebrows since they cover them anyway
Mk3/4 scout armor gloves change to mk5 (so they're not recolored fingers)
Overheat weapons gain a higher pitch when about to overheat / drills glow red
When the host rage quits, make it the same as getting kicked (still get some rewards instead of none)

Make full head / mouth covering cosmetics muffle the wearers voice (not like pyro tf2, more like in fallout 3 / NV)

"Special" Doretta mission - Exploration / Prospecting
Something perhaps for Season 9 or 10
Sort of an "endless" mission, where it's up to the team when or if to call the pod for extraction, e.g. Warframe, Darkest Dungeon, where the team has, in addition to the fire up the engine Red Button there's a hologram, a screen like when you choose rewards after machine events, which direction to go, whether to risk it and require extraction if you run out of fuel during the next transition to mineral-rich cave / system of caves, or whether to challenge an especially wealthy cave with a dreadnought or three being awake and roaming the area, tending to the nest or something like that.
An experiment maybe, a little-big side-project, to see how or if an open-world-like system like that would work for the game and its players.
PS: And I will never stop asking this: add a screen to supply pods, a proximity hologram menu, to allow calling down a Beer Resupply, or a separate beacon to call down a random Beer resupply, please!

we can't get endless missions, but I would love a new Drill Dozer mission with a more armored Drill Dozer. maybe something relating to the new plagues and how we gotta get to the bottom of it. after the Dozer is done, we take explosives and attach them to what the Dozer drilled through. after which, the Dozer drills us to a safe distance so we can blow up the stuff and leave.

Many of the enemies in the monster manual are one-off creatures, with no connection to related species or a larger swarm. We have the Glyphids, the Mactera, and just a few examples of Neadocyte. With Plaguefall bringing with it a host of oopy-goopy monsters from the muck it would be cool to see expansions on the existing biology

- Are the carnivarous larva part of the Nayaka family? The Cave leech family? The "grub" family?

- Are Glyphid Menaces grown up Glyphid Spawns?

This will sound somewhat morbid, but naturally spawned inventory backpacks during Salvage Missions.
Mission Control will note that the miners who were sent into the operating area beforehand lost their lives during the mission, but as of this time their bodies are nowhere to be found. Would it make sense to leave some open/hidden caches of loot that are left behind by said unfortunate miners? Not lost packs per se, no lost helmets or anything to help you with zeroing in on the exact location of the backpack, though could probably hint that there is a pack nearby by signs of explosion craters, spent ammo and broken pickaxes, and have the retrieval dwarves use the same voice lines when locating a pack belonging to the previous miners.
Contents could probably be the same as the amount of nitra/gold you get from repairing a mule. Just a purely optional thing to add to the mission.
Edit : Pardon the addendum, this just occurred to me after I posted... maybe a 'Dog Tag' system, where for every lost pack (found via lost helmet and during salvage mission as above), you will collect and add them to your personal tally of how many 'Lost Dwarves Found'.

Voicelines spoke by the dwarf who is the only one alive and the others are down (multiplayer only). Sometimes you may not notice you team died in all the chaos, so at least hearing that could keep you alerted. And just to make it funnier or more alive. Maybe some lines would been spoken after reviving teammate?
Examples:
"Oh, you'd all be in deep "a", if I wasn't here!"
"Guys?! Hang on, I've got it!"
"I need a hand! ... Wait, I'm alone?!"
"If we get alive of this, we need to discuss our cooperation..."
"May Karl help me now..."
"No way I have to handle this all by myself!"
"I feel the sudden crushing pressure on me..."
"Oh crap! I'm the only one left!"

-Kill a cave leech by pickaxing it.

A new gamemode centered around disassembling a giant broken drill.
It should have a similar cave layout to that of a morkite mission, with long tunnels and a final room, where the drill stands.
A drill of that size (2x Doretta) costs DRG a ton of money, so when a thing like that breaks they are definitely going to try to get some of the money back. That's why they are sending you to get the remaining valuable parts back.
It will consist of these steps:
- Land
- Find the drill
- Kill whatever broke it
- Empty the drill's fuel tanks into a specialised pod
- Take off the drill's plating with a mission specific tool and deposit it into a specialised pod
- Disassemble the drill's components and deposit them into a specialised pod
- Send the specialised pod home
- Return
- Beer

OC idea for bulldog heavy revolver:
Golden Gun
: one shot kill to any non boss enemies in the game, regardless of current health or armor. Massive increase to accuracy, making it very difficult to miss your limited shots
: only carrys one bullet in the chamber, and reduces the max ammo drastically (to like 2-3). Snail speed reload time.

A high-tier upgrade for Bosco, kind of like an 'Internal Storage Unit'
It would allow Bosco to store the minerals he mines.
The capacity would be something around 30, and he could only carry one mineral type at a time. You'd have to claim any mineral he's carrying yourself by pressing E [Interact] on him (made easier by the X [call] command of course) and depositing it yourself. Once his storage is full he would continue mining but anything that doesn't fit into his storage just drops like normal.
I think that this would be useful for those hard to reach veins that, when mined by Bosco, will fall into even harder to reach places. Often times I find myself meticulously digging towards those ores myself because I don't want them to fall into a 40 meters deep pit right below the vein, but with this upgrade that little tidbit could be eliminated.

Make it so killing a Large creature (Praetorian, oppressor) with a melee attack with vampire gives 2x health and an extra large one (detonator, dread) gives 3x health, because it takes way more ammo and because they have more hp the final hit has less chances of being a meelee attack.

New gamemode :
"Safezone"
Your team is sent to estabilish a safe haven/forward camp for RnD to collect samples of terrain, fauna and flora for further studies of the biomes.
-You are dropped in with a on-site refining esque platform at your disposal at the beginning of a mission
-The mission generates random hordes and normal waves of enemies as usual.
-Find and collect scraps of old abandoned equipment (On site refinery rigs, dotty drop-in cages, broken mules and disassembled OMEN towers)
-Store the scraps into molly or the platform and use them to upgrade the provided fortifications/defenses or call-in modified and improved omen towers(that obviously do not target you) for a large sum of scraps
-When you feel sufficently prepared, use the terminal on the rig to emit a high frequency noise, attracting all bugs in a massive area, you must hold your ground and survive the constant onslaught for ~5 minutes with a short ~20 second break in the middle of the wave to allow for resupplies.
-Upon completing the objective, no bugs spawn and the drop pod arrives with 3 minutes on the extraction timer
-Dystrum as a possible secondary objective

It would be a Recovery / Extermination style mission at a Top Secret DRG bug research facility that they lost touch with and your team were the only ones close enough to respond.
It would take place in a gloomy indoor facility which would require breaching the main door. Fighting through unpowered/destroyed hallways filled with all sorts of the bug tanks full of nasties (that could unexpectedly pop) and flickering terminals to get to two different generators which would need to be restored to gain access to some sort of Command Center. Powering up the generators would obviously create a lot of noise and would trigger bug spawns, that players would have to deal with. The generators however wouldn't bring all the power on, so, the area could be lit by broken and or dark/dim lights to retain atmosphere.
Within this Command Center would be a mainframe containing the vault keycodes. Gaining the keycodes, players would have to make their way to the vault door itself and maybe have some sort of mini-game on the keypad to access, But here's the catch... The door will open, but as soon as the player grabs "Object A" and makes some witty remark, the facility alarms go off due to unauthorized access. During this, bugs would obviously start pouring in which would then trigger the extraction. Perhaps something along the lines of mission control saying that they forgot to mention about some sort of pressure-sensitive alarm and that you need to get out of there with the goods ASAP.
Fighting either out some sorta abandoned cave section through an emergency exit or back out the front then drilling to some semi-distant place where an emergency drop pod would be. Kind of a "best we could do for you" situation, so get there.

What about some Supportive Wildlife? Nothing too strong or impactfull but it would feel nice to have something that is actually helping us instead of killing us.
Ideas: A Plant that slowly regnerates health when staying around it(1 HP every 30 seconds and boosts your time until shield regenrates by 25%) (low range max 10m)
A Animal that you have to follow and leads you to a Small treasure like extra minerals or Something that gives extra battle pass XP (a bit but far less than a data cell)
An animal that wont really help you but is neutral and fights enemies but also gets attacked by them (if you shoot it it will also attack you)
Some animals that follow you for a bit and give you light (like a glowbug but way stronger)
A Animal that is freeing you if you got grabbed (but not alway just if its in the area)
A Plant that makes you jumps 3 times as strong and immune of fall damage for a short ammount of time if you ate a fruit from it (limited uses)
A Plant that is giving you 5%-10% Damage reduction for a short period of time if you eat a fruit (both of the plants buffs should last 30s max and hold a random amount of fruits ranging from 1 to 8.
The animals and plants should still be random and probably rare encounters but would make the world more alive imo.

An addition (entire seperate slot not a perk) to encourage players who find haz 4-5 too hard to help them (but you dont have to take it): Consumables
Either Give you a buff or heal you. But they cost you a fair ammount of money. (would also solve the problem of greybeards having millions laying around and consider for others when to use it or to save the money for another mission).
A Few ideas:
Sandwich: Max 2 can be stored. Each costs 5000 credits (to make them actually valuable and to consider if you eat it or not). Heals 20HP instant and 60 more hp over the next 20 seconds.
Energy drink: You can Hold 2 of them. Boosts your movement speed by 50% for 2minutes.(3000 credits each)
Batteries: Can hold 4 Charges. Boosts your shield HP by 50% and regen time begins 50% faster for 1 minute.(4000 Credits each)
Glyphid Slammer Can: 2 Charges Gives you 25% Damage Reduction for 2 minutes. (5000 Credits Each)
Blackout Stout Can: Knocks you out but when you get revived you have full HP. 1 Charge (10000 credits each)
Mactera Brew Can: Makes you temporarily invisible to macteras and less likely to get attacked by glypids due your intense smell (20% fear every 2 seconds in a 4m radius is applied). 2 Charges. (4000 Credits each)
Gunpowder Bags: You can use them to refill 25% of your Main and secondary weapon ammo but not grenades HP or tools. 2 Charges. 7000 Credits Each.
Liquid Red Sugar: Makes you for 5 seconds invincible. 1 Charge (20000 Credits each)
Leaf Lovers Special Can: You get Super Pheromones applied so every bug will attack you instead of anything else. You also take 25% more damage but youre 25% faster and have perfect aim. This lasts for 1 minute. When the effect wears out you go downed and have to be reivived (if someone has mercy with you after what you did). 2 Charges (8000 credits each)

a mission variant,
where you have to disarm a giant stationary exploder
so large that if it detonated it would cause problems with future missions
so powerful that the fallout would be smelled for miles
your goal is to quietly disarm the creature with an ice injector that forces a special liquid into the creature the liquid then freeezes so cold that the giant exploder freezes and dies
the cave around the giant exploder has been taken over by its own evolutionary process with tumors growing out of the caves surface walls and ceiling
with a multitude of attacks, the GE can launch fireballs to detonating tumors to growing tentacles with spiked ends

Add blank matrix cores to the rewards for every five levels past rank 100 in the performance pass, IMO this would just be a really convenient addition for people who have completed most of the immediate content in the game and want to grind for any of the overclocks they want/need, since the most limiting factor of getting all of the overclocks right now is waiting to be able to get more cores.
(also possibly give blank cores a function outside of being used for overclocks, like being able to sell them after a certain point, or if you already have every overclock they simply convert into random amounts of resources.)

I know 5th Dwarf is probably a no go, but a melee class
A hammer, an axe, dual swords, or fist weapons for the primary
The secondary is something that imbues his attacks with fire, ice, corrosion or something rather than a proper weapon, and upgrading them increases the effects of imbuing
Grenades could be a vortex grenade that draws enemies to one spot for melee attacks, a stop that acts as a huge forwards schockwave kinda like the oppressor, or rock throw that explodes
The utility (like the shield projector for the gunner) could be a healing fount. The class isn't ammo hungry, but it's constantly in the frey and needs to heal, so it has a radial heal that can restore that important health
It could also be a stimulant that applies a series of buffs
Movement tool could be climbing gear that lets you move of vertical surfaces. You coukd save yourself from a fall by latching onto a wall and it doesn't need a latching point like the scouts grappling hook
The movement could also be a big leap that can get upgraded for a Shockwave upon landing
The armor could upgrade for pure damage resistances and minor health regen

As well as when you enter this room it doesn't just have the tanks it has like skulls/body parts, written up notes on like white boards, and even the eggs or other life forms just to make it look like the R&D team is actually studying these things.

New Objective
Objective Name: Armored Dreadnaught Egg
X Pods (determined by mission length) are dropped in ahead of time. Find them, pick bombs (large objects) off of them and take them into the hatchery. Bombs have a time limit and a health bar, bugs will attack it. The hatchery is marked on the map and must be dug into. Once inside the hatchery, bombs must be placed under the nutritional support tube that is attached to the fortified dread egg one at a time. Once armed these bombs will blow up in 10 seconds and cause a wave to spawn. After the tube is destroyed a dread is spawned with increased health and the assistance of a persistent wave of bugs.
Side Objective/ Environmental challenge:
Spawns similar to a normal Dread egg. Get close to it to call a bomb pod. It will drop similar to a hacking pod. Grab two bombs and place it by the egg, after a short fuse it explodes causing dread to spawn along with a wave of enemies.
- Bomb can be carried by bosco.
- On completion these could drop resources.

-Focused shots now take ~ 5 seconds to fully charge.
-you can fire a focused shot 1 second after it begins charging.
-As you get closer and closer to fully charging a shot, you zoom in more and more, the surrounding audio getting muffled gradually untill you hear the click of the focused shot being at max charge, which you can hold indefinetely(this part is mostly cosmetic)
+The movement penalty of scc also applies gradually, slowing your movement as you charge a shot, only becoming immobile at 100% charge
+The charged shot damage bonus ramps up with the charge meter (+75% charged shot damage at minimum charge, +425% charged shot damage at max charge)

Wave Cooker's Temperature Amplifier rework Idea:
Instead of how it works currently, make so it heats up the enemies in progress of heating, same with cold.
Example: Bug A has Heating progress at 90%, shooting Cooker with TA could make Bug A's temperature reach Burning Status.
While Bug B has Cooling Progress at 90%, shooting with TA would make it Frozen.
However, using it on Bug C who is Dreadnaught might not further the cooling, but it can halt the cooling progress decrease.
This would make the mod synergize with Exothermic Reactor well.

Idea for Scout.
As all other classes have a high end explosive device, Scout needs one as well. The engineer has a 40mm grenade launcher, gunner has a rapid fire surface to air missile system and Digger has C4.
Scout needs a high powered explosive. Something thats compatible with his high flying abilies. Something like the other classes that is a fire and forget weapon.
I suggest a full RPG launcher. Single fire, high detonation, wide blast radius. Slow to reload and takes a moment to aim. But is best fired from a high position.

Hawkeye Balancing idea( Dont invent the wheel new just add a bit of value):
The Damage that is dealt is now Mostly AOE (but small)
1 Damage impact and the other damage it would do (Gemini or MK2) is now a 0.75M radius AOE. Its still way weaker in overall damage output but the manual aim combined with the small aoe makes it really usefull for swarmers or grouped enemies while the defense system is more RNG what it targets but has more against single enemies.
Alternative idea: Each shot it has a 10% chance to apply pheromones (for 8 seconds) so it could work in synergy with the priority targeting.

Hello very good, I hope you like this because
I have ideas for some main weapons for the engineer and driller.
For the engineer: It would be a kind of carbine that would house a small anomaly inside that would create mini black holes when shooting where it points, which would initially shoot a small ball of energy that would shoot out of it at low speed. (the speed of this ball of energy is debatable) and then when it hits some surface and after a few seconds it would start collapsing under its own weight and become a mini black hole. All enemies that are close to the range of the event horizon would be gravitationally affected by the black hole and start getting sucked in, it wouldn't swallow them or disintegrate completely (since it would be too broken) it would just suck them in, they get trapped and spin around nearby of the black hole dealing damage per second and as the black hole burns itself out after a few seconds it would disintegrate exploding and send any beetles that were gravitationally affected by this black hole flying in all directions. The fat enemies would hardly be affected by this gravity so they would only slow them down or hit the ground stunning them (although with some hacking it would make it easier for the black holes to consume the bigger ones by affecting them more and other hacks that would increase the range of the horizon of events and/or the time of life of these and a special one that occurred to me that black holes would occasionally expel jets of electrical energy to enemies that are somewhat far from the event horizon doing electricity damage).
For the driller it would be a weapon almost similar to that of the engineer, only it would be like a vacuum cleaner that would suck up the bugs and deposit them in a tank that would quantumly miniaturize them and then with the right button, it would eject them, launching them at high speeds, turning it into a bug gut rocket launcher (obviously you can only suck up small bugs, but like the previous weapon, there could be a mod that insists on sucking up a large target in a couple of seconds because you could absorb it, but this would only affect the Glyphid Oppressor
Glyphid Praetorian and a few other great targets, but no detonators, bosses, etc). Depending on the type of critters you have in the miniaturization tank, when you cast it, it could deal different types of damage and effects. For example with a Glyphid Exploder when you fire it where you are aiming it would explode dealing effective area damage, with a Glyphid Grunt Guard it would be a missile that stuns whoever it hits, with a Glyphid Grunt Slasher it would be more direct. damage and so on.

The capacity of the tank is limited and depending on the size of the insect its capacity will fill it more or less, but with mods the capacity of the tank could be improved.

Idea for a driller weapon: a gravity cannon primary capable of ripping up rocks or very low health enemies and throwing them with great force at the horde. It would work great as a burst damage tool for large targets and maybe with the right upgrades it could be good for groups as well. Ammo would be an energy source of some kind, perhaps the battery life of the gravity cannon. Upon picking up something, it would use up a certain amount of the battery to pick it up and toss it. This amount is increased depending on how big the object or enemy you picked up. Like it would take 2 energy to pick up a low heath grunt or 25 to pick up a low health praetorian. For bosses or elites, it would probably do nothing since it couldn't pick them up. For some overclocks, how about something the decreases damage but allows the user to carry up to three objects at once and release them all at once in a shotgun pattern. How about one that increases energy cost for throws but makes all thrown objects explode on contact.
Probably not as good as some of your guy's ideas but something I thought as cool

While the perk is equipped, an extra Compressed Gold chunk will spawn somewhere in every mission, but will disappear if not located and excavated from the ground within 10 minutes. Stacks if multiple dwarves have the perk equipped, but only for dwarves that were on the initial Drop Pod. Additionally, while equipped, all mineral Gold only takes 1 hit to mine, instead of 2.

Here's hoping after Plaguefall we see more fleshy-heart-of-Hoxxes maps and tunnel layouts/biome unique to such an eldritch arena. For instance, instead of clearing dirt between chambers the dwarves have to traverse a hostile muscle-valve system that'll threaten to chop them up into more digestible pieces should they time their jump through the maw-like threshold poorly. Chamber floors and walls aren't dirt obviously, but some flesh-like substance, and some floors are covered in a pool of digestive acids that can burn through a dwarves' shields quickly should one be unfortunate enough to fall in... maybe a unique objective similar to using Doretta to crack an ommeran heartstone, but instead the dwarves are tasked w/ a high grade explosive that they have to carry throughout the flesh-pits to the depths to set the charge, and exfiltrate in the called-for droppod before the timer sets off, vaporizing the eldritch tunnels and any unfortunately left behind dwarves....

SENTRY T1 REBALANCE/REWORK
While most of the upgrades are fairly straightforward, the difference between Gemini and MK2 is significant. I ran MK2 for YEARS, as I enjoy a tight, strong defense, and thought Gemini was more for a spread-out defense. Turns out, Gemini is superior at both holding a tight defense and a wider defense. Other than decreasing ammo-consumption (and a few very minor stat boosts), MK2 has no unique purpose in area-denial.
My suggestion is that the T1 upgrades should have both upgrades hold a near-identical DPS while focusing on what type of Area-denial is desired. More specifically, Gemini focusing on a wider but looser defense, while MK2 focuses on a smaller but tighter defense. For this, lets assume that Gemini stays as is while MK2 is reworked to keep its DPS close to (and probably slightly less than) Gemini. The difference being, Gemini having higher total DPS, but split between two targets; and MK2 having a slightly lower DPS, but is focused on a single target.
Whether this is done by giving MK2 another gun, increasing its' fire rate, or other methods, the goal is to have Gemini and MK2 have distinct roles in area-denial with similar DPS.

A mining or egg collecting mission that takes place in the patrol path of a fully formed, invincible, and deadly but slower Dreadnought, with its patrol path being wide and connecting the cave system.
The Dreadnought should have very limited detection ability, being able to see players within line of sight but losing them if they get too far away, and should remain unaware if they hide and stay quiet. There should be a meter on the HUD letting players know if they're making enough noise to attract the Dreadnought, with mission control letting the players know if it is approaching
The Dreadnought should be attracted to the sound of lots of mining, the sound of an egg being collected, or the sounds of sustained gunfire and should head to that location regardless of distance. Once the players are alerted of the approaching Dreadnought they will have a limited window to either hide or flee.
When the drop pod is called, the Dreadnought will become agitated and hypersensitive, moving directly towards the players at a slightly faster pace. You could also add a fun but rare event where the Dreadnought will burrow when a player reaches the pod and unburrow at the pod, destroying it and proceeding to chase the players to the opposite end of the map, where a new pod will await them.

Instead of abandoned resupply pods being a nice gimmick you find from time to time. What if resupplying at one of these pods could give you a random damage increase or a random effect such as a 25% chance to stun enemies per 100 damage.

legs: movement controls
1 gunner who has an arm with the left
armaments:
left arm: 35mm AP auto cannon
shoulder mounted: 10mm AA gun
1 man: the mech is smaller, and lacks mobility but is better equipped for combat
armaments:
right arm: 20mm machinegun (uses light explosives)
left arm: 45mm cannon (armor piercing rounds)
shoulder mounted: 40mm high explosives launcher

Suggestion; Active armour perks. Instead of disable inertia inhibitor being part of a gun, its part of the miners armour. Another could be "remote controller" that makes you able to detonate certain types of "shells" mid flight. Scouts flares could be exploded as a sort of flashbang, or just a light that slowly drifts to the ground. Sludge shells could be popped mid flight. I imagine these alterations to be useless on some builds. Just tweaks that make the game feel different. Id like more control over my shells basically. "Reverse gravity" makes shells curve upwards instead of down. "Righty tighty" and "lefty loosy". So basically, an additional choice to change the way the game feels.

A Rework to Escort Missions:
-
Doretta: Make her more an active focus instead of just an boring point to defend. Add a turret with 2 Miniguns (each does around 30% of the gunners dps but overheats way slower and has way more ammo 20-30k but cant be resupplied) and a Strong Floodlight. The Turret is manual controlled by a player sitting in it. The player takes 75% less damage while in it but needs 3 seconds to get out in return so youre kind of a sitting duck. Also to compensate the strong turret there should be a bit higher chance to spawn Big enemies like pret´s. Also you can fuel her on the go if you dont want to stop (1 seperate canister) but if you arent fast enough she will stop right in the middle instead of a large room.
-
Omoran: Make a few (1-2) Omoran themed enemies like omoran elementals and a Golem of some sort. (It is hinted that it is sentient so it should be able to create and command such things to defend itself). They should spawn on the way to the omoran and be more and more common as you get closer to the Omoran while glypids become a bit less common.
-
Fight/Exctraction of the Omoran: It now spawns a lot of its minions to aid it. In Phase 2 It also kinda starts to create Arms out of the walls (similar look of the thrown rocks) and throws rocks now instead of letting it levitate. They also can punch you similar to a stabber vine but with less damage. You can destroy them by shooting at them. There is a rare chance to spawn a Grabbing arm that throws you against a other player or doretta Hurting both of you (but not that much). In Phase 3 It now spawns the beamers with the arms still spawning (but way less than phase 2). In Phase 4 it Creates a Sort of Super Golem as a "final fight" you have to keep shooting its arms and legs so it cant move and needs to reg while it tries to slowly get to doretta (normal enemy spawns a lot reduced) if it reaches her she gets destroyed otherwise the Golem dies when you crack the Last part of the Omoran.

Engineer: medium flare, Ground light (turret with 360 area light large area but you have 1, and it must be used like turrets but on flare button.)

2 New Nemesis.
The original is now nick named the "creeper".
"Peeper" Nemesis:
Hangs from ceiling and is equipped with 3 sniper turrets that are shielded. It also spawns mini-caretaker arms that shoot dwarfs. Only the pyramid tip of it is exposed shoot it enough to stun it and drop its shields. When it's shields regenerate it fires out a small wave of phase bombs. Shoot its weak points to destroy the turrets. When all 3 turrets are gone the nemesis explodes sending out a flurry of shredders.
"Stalker" Nemesis:
A bigger slightly slower patrol bot. Has the same firing functions but also a sniper turret and can spawn a phase bomb. It likes to stay distant and take pot shots but can and will sweep in close to grab dwarves who wander away from the team. It has to be close to grab and can't move. Heavy engage will cause it to power down. When it powers up it gains a shield briefly and a boost of speed. Two heavy engagements should kill it or just pick it off at range. When its health is depleted it will enter a mode where after a short time limit it will explode, during this time it will recklessly try to grab a dwarf.

Hey I have an idea for those issues with obtaining specific overclocks that make or break some builds.
I thought of adding a "laboratory" room to the space rig, in which you could fit one overclock (maybe one per class?) for research.
Researching the overclock would be done by doing missions and deep dives, the harder the content the better the progress, but research should still be long.
Once the research is complete you unlock the overclock to forge it.

The first upgrade tier, similar to the scouts crossbow, would be different crystals the cannon can fire, such as the electric crystal that creates an arching pylon and the radioactive crystal that explodes into a cloud of radiation
A later upgrade tier could change the weapon from firing a singlle large chunk to a spray of smaller shards with the description "the folks at R&D stuck a coagulation lactose shredder (or some other fantastic term for cheese grater) onto the end of your cannon. The result is a spray of smaller, jagged shards that coat a larger area, with decreased accuracy."

This is a pretty out there idea. Bear with me.
Daily Special suggestion.
"Mountain Mover's Mug'o'Momentum". Name pending. Calling it MMMOM for short.
Whenever an objective is completed, gain a small but permanent reload/move speed buff (either or, both at once would probably be broken).
Mentality behind concept:
DRG missions, if going well, tend to wind down near the end. We've all had the mission where it feels like we leave with more ammo than we landed with. In this instance having your objectives completed gives you a nice little bonus to help you get back to the drop pod faster.
DRG missions, if going poorly, tend to be nightmares at the end. We've all had the mission where we had no health or ammo and only kept the mission from being a total wash because of Iron Will. In this case, MMMOM acts as a lifeline, just enough of a boost to help you stay alive those last few clutch seconds without being a free win.
For Deep Dives, I'm not sure if it should reset or not. On one hand, hell yeah instant reload/hyperspeed dwarves on the last stage of the DD. On the other hand, that's probably really unbalanced. Give me a 🐴 if you think it shouldn't reset, 💀 if you do.

An idea for a limited time April Fools event:
A prankster used his entire yearly salary to buy a cargo shuttle’s worth of a strange chemical that he was intending to put into the Abyss Bar’s supply of beer. This cargo shuttle dropped its cargo on accident into the caves. This chemical has a very strange effect on the local wildlife, turning all enemies docile and harmless. (Glyphids, Mactera, etc) Meanwhile though, this chemical seems to have awakened some unseen side of the Lootbug, and makes them hostile towards DRG operatives. Basically, all enemies are harmless and do not attack, and you can pet them. (Including stuff like leeches or nexuses) and Lootbugs are more common and attack players by shooting mineral chunks at them. Swarms are replaced by hordes of lootbugs. This only lasts for a day or two before the chemical wears off and everything goes back to normal
TL;DR: On April Fools, enemies are friendly and you can pet them, and lootbugs are hostile and shoot minerals at you

The Apoca Bloom, Boolo Cap, and Alien Fossil secondary objectives are mechanically identical (found on cave surfaces, faintly glowing, not affected by physics, instantly collected with the [USE] key,) and I think that makes them feel a bit redundant. Perhaps something could be done to differentiate them further?
e.g. making Alien Fossils into heavy objects akin to mini MULE legs, making Apoca Blooms give off a significant amount of light, spawning Boolo Caps in small clusters of 2-4 but requiring more to be collected overall, etc. Small changes that would be fairly impactful towards giving us more gameplay variety.

An "easter-egg" for the Underhill Deluxe
If you continue to drink more and more UnderHills Deluxe, the player dwarf continues to shrink, but just before they enter the Quantum Realm, shrinking ||unto eternity|| go dangerously small they pass out and snap to their regular size. Obviously a reference to MCU, Ant-Man specifically.
Just a random thought after this week's EDD, drinking the pay away after the success, and thought it'd be a nice thing.

New mission type: Precursor Trials. You and your team land in a cave with an alien teleporter. This teleporter needs power cells to function, one per party member. This initial cave is connected to a series of caves with difficult terrain, but this series of caves is inaccessible until a button is pressed, which begins a timer.
At the end of this series of caves is a pedestal containing one power cell per party member. These are heavy objects and must be carried back to the teleporter in the initial room like an Aquaarc. The goal is thus to reach the end of the cave system while using your traversal tools to make it easier to return, as a sort of time trial. Once the teleporter has one power cell per party member, the team can teleport to the next section of the mission. Ammo automatically gets restocked to full when this happens, and there's no Nitra in the mission.
In the second section, it's the same as the first section, except now there's 2 separate cave systems connecting to the initial room, and each one only has half the power cells needed to power the teleporter. This means the party must now split up into two groups.
Once the second round is completed, depending on the mission length, if it's a mission length of 2, then the team gets teleported to the boss section. If it's a mission length of 3, then before you go to the boss section, you have to go to a third section where there's three cave systems, so that the party has to split up into 3 groups.
The boss at the end of the mission gains increased stats, particularly significantly more HP, depending on how long the party takes to get to it, so getting through quickly as possible is important, especially because you have a set amount of ammo with which to defeat it.

my suggestion for a red sugar mushroom
If you hit the small Red Sugar Mushroom 3 times it rapidly grows into a Giant Red Sugar Mushroom and starts releasing it's spores. The spores are coated in Red Sugar and will fall for a short duration. All dwarves can then run under the Giant Red Sugar Mushroom and heal together for this duration. This way you don't have that one dwarf stealing all the Red Sugar from in front of you all the time.
The Red Sugar Mushroom is: 0.5 dwarves in height and 1 pickaxe in width.
The Giant Red Sugar Mushroom is: 2.5 dwarves in height and 1.5 dwarves in width.
Yes this idea did happen in a dream, no I have not been playing DRG too much XD

You can pay Lloyd a Blank Matrix Core/an excessive amount of minerals to get the Daily Special changed.
wintry remnant
I don't have a stable internet connection so I usually play solo. It'd be really cool if the daily special's effect also carried out to Bosco. Like, I happened to have pots of gold equipped but had to spend too much time digging gold from a crassus explosion since the effect doesn't carry out to Bosco. I also didn't really get the expected yield cuz I mined the ore even though my bag was full. I thought the effect would make it so more gold would drop but apparently it only affects gold pickups when it's mined directly. Maybe a rework on that mechanic would be really cool?

Hello fellow Miners and Moderators and Dev.
This feature could be a hit...
Since DRG has such awesome cosmetic weapon, pickaxe and dwarf apperance customisation options...
There needs to be a separate app where you can share your DRG styles on a platform which is organised according to class and or a special collection/series of looks made by the user.
I myself go nuts while creating a specific look that I want for my dwarf that corresponds to a function or designation. For eg making a wasteland, army, viking, cyber punk theme, etc.
It would really be cool to see everyones creation, not only as 2d pictures, but with an interactive 3rd model, with the option of different poses/stances, lighting and biomes.

New enemy idea:
Glyphid Reflector:
An evolution of the Glyphid family that seems to have evolved to combat DRG operatives. It’s design is similar to that of a Warden but with a large tube sticking out of the front and two intake holes on the sides. The only attack of the Reflector is a high powered blast of air, blowing away loose resources, objects, and dwarves if they stand in front of the reflector when it attacks. This blast of air also reflects any projectile fired at it to whatever shot the reflector. The reflector can blast this air 3 times before having to stop and take in more air. It’s air level would be shown by how brightly its weakspot “bulb” is glowing, as well as how bloated is it’s air sacs on its sides and read. The reflector would spawn as a disruptive enemy like the Warden. It would try to blow dwarves off of high ledges, or blow them out of defensive positions, as well as defend swarms from projectile weapons such as the PGL or Breach Cutter by reflecting the projectiles back towards the dwarf that fired it. It would have a high weakness to kinetic damage.

On mission failed screens, there should be a "Retry?" button that will bring all players that pressed it into a new game with that mission.

New mission type by me and @slender kernel : You and your team need to track down a mother bulk detonator (bigger than the normal bulk) and find it in its nest sleeping. You need to try to take a sample of it without waking it up. If you do manage to wake it up, a massive boss fight will trigger.

New type of Cosmetic Matrix Core: Shop Data -
Obtained in the same way as any other cosmetic core. When forged, adds a themed selection of 5-10 new cosmetics all at once to the shop for a particular class. These new cosmetics can then be purchased from the shop like any other shop cosmetic. This acts as a solution to cosmetic core bloat without removing them from the pool entirely, and previously released cosmetics could potentially be bundled together in this way.

An inspect animation unique to each gun / utility tool. Although some guns (such as the breach cutter or autocannon) have unique inspect animations, a lot of the other guns use generic ones (such as the engineer’s PGL and shotgun). Seeing an special inspect animation for each weapon would give each its own add of flavor to it
grave cobalt
As more cosmetics are added to the game, the cosmetic selection menu isn't scaling up terribly well. Could we get some sort of organizational structure within the selection menus for cosmetics? Maybe a tree/folder structure by season / DLC that they were in, or by themes/holiday, or something? Or the ability to star certain items for certain classes? (like on my autocannon gunner, I rotate between Corporate Merc, Bolted Marauder, Grandpappy's Doughboy, Born to Drill, and the mohawk, and being able to pick those out of the crowd of hats would be nice). Or the ability to pick out some cosmetics that I know I'm probably not going to want to use on that class and move them to the end of the menu.

Some changes in the Memorial Hall:
- Make the dwarves only able to walk (disable run inside), or if you run Mission Control will tell you "You didn't read the sign did you?" "Running in the Memorial Hall is forbidden"
- Change the big statatue in the center (the one between all classes statues, now using the Scout model) for a hero dwarf of legend, or maybe the founder/s of DRG.
- Add a memorial for Karl.
- Add trophies of big enemies, like Dreadnaughts, the Nemesis, the Caretaker, the future big parasite worm thing boss of season 3, etc.

When wearing the mc mask there should be voice lines to mock mc (the dwarves also laugh after each imitation and maybe in a few of them they laugh during the imitation)

) - y’know, maybe it’s time I had a real beer for once. Oily oafs/Glyphid slammers (ordering oily oafs or glyphid slammers)
- I need some smart stout. Hoping I’ll be able to help those hardworking miners for once (ordering smart stout)
- this is not as cozy as I’m used to (depositing)
- says swarm warnings at the same time as the real mc (doesn’t laugh at the end)

Just an extremely basic idea (and even more basic edit). A lightswitch for our loadout menu (perhaps for wardrobe as well). It might seem as a pure cosmetic thing, but actually some people (me included) are trying to make their characters as visible as possible - not only for the aesthetics, but also to make their characters more visible for other players in the heat of the battle. Sometimes there's simply no time to bring out the laser pointer, and a chance to customise our loadout around visibility in the dark might prevent some unnecessary friendly fire.

A lot to ask for, but I think a hoard mode would be a worthwhile addition. It could have it's own unique static battlepass that doesn't change with seasons, where points are based on how long your team lasts on top of completing objectives in the hoard mode. The battlepass could reward unique overclocks that can only be used in this hoard mode, along with cosmetics or skins. Also, for the sake of giving credits a bigger use, players could compete in a regular hoard mode that's completely free, or they could pay credits every time they want to do an elite version that's more challenging and has a better payout. Also, I think it would be interesting to buy temporary upgrades, like the ability to start with a 3 free resupply pods, more reserve ammo, etc.

New active perk idea:
"Lootbug tamer"
This perk will allow you to tame a lootbug. This lootbug will follow you around, you can hold e to "feed" it with your minerals in the bag. Tamed lootbug (Dave) has a cap on resources, but it will act as a bank of sorts. It has not a lot of health, but longer it survives = the more interest your resources get.
You can press e on the lootbug so it stays in one position, but it will start following you if you go too far.
If Dave dies he explodes in minerals, just like a lootbug. At some point dave will start glowing, and if you hold e it will give you lots of minerals. If he dies before that you get minerals u deposited in it + some interest, but you get more if dave survived until the glowing phase. After glowing the cycle repeats until dave dies.
Normal lootbug: Gold and nitra
Golden lootbug: Gold, more interest.

A community contribution system for cosmetics, think TF2’s workshop with how every now and then new community created cosmetics are added to the game.

New hazard: Bottomless pits. If you fall down one, Bosco will fly down and grab you and drop you on the nearest available land. In multiplayer, Bosco will appear for a short moment and disappear after returning you to safe ground. This is the only way for other players to see your Bosco skin.
In Hazards 1/2/3, you lose 50% of your HP wherever you fall down a pit. In Haz 4/5, this is an instant kill. A new biome that's heavily focused on this hazard could also be released in the future.

A little "big" change to 
:
• When another player joins the game, instead of exploding, Bosco will wrap onto itself (kind of like Star Wars' droïds) and drop onto the ground. He can then be carried back to the drop pod at the end of the mission, like Doretta's head.
• If you are solo again, it will activate at the spot it was left at.
• Like Doretta, there is absolutely no benefit, bonuses or payouts for bringing it back.

Request:
Add a slot machine to the Abyss Bar.
The slot machine would cost peanuts to play, but would reward you with peanuts in return (this is not literal. The fact I have to specify this shows how beautifully absurd this game is and I love it) even if you get a jackpot. The slots would be semi-automated, they would stop automatically after a bit but you could manually stop them instead. You would only be able to play using Credits and would only win Credits.
Why:
Players want something to do on the Rig while host is AFK. I think if anything is added, it should be something you can easily walk away from like the hoop game, so you don't put off playing the game to play the minigame. A slot machine would be about perfect for this in my opinion, it's about as low impact as you can get in terms of investment.
Plus, it also gives you something to do with Credits besides tipping Lloyd and spamming the Jukebox.

Mission type: Survey
In this mission players are dropped with mini mules, to survey a large open cave system. Do to the complex lay out players are to find locations of interest and deploy scanners.
Locations of interest can be abandoned rival tech, a massive compact ore deposit, Ancient things no dwarf understands, a nest of some sort. ETC.
there is 2-4 of these locations and once the surveyer is deployed the players must defend it similar to other area defence items staying in its zone of influence. Once done it will pop out a data pack that the players need to put in their mini mule.
Once all locations are done head to the evac point and leave. just be warned dreadnaughts spawn when evacing.

Mission type: Hunt
A mission type similar to exterminate and sabotage missions, but not the same. Hunt missions involve tracking and killing a major enemy on the map.
The players are sent down with a tracking drone, a drome capable of tracking and finding the hunt mission's boss. The scouting drone will highlight a clue on the map that the dwarves must find. Once found, the scouting drone will take some time to scan the clue to track down the location of the next clue. Once all clues have been scanned, this will allow the players to find the location of the Hunt boss.
When arriving in the hunt bosses room, the player must have the tracking drone scan the final clue. Once it is scanned the boss will spawn and the players must exterminate it by any means necessary.
The boss it will be will be random per mission. I have come up with a concept of a single enemy that can serve as the boss.
Glyphid Titan:
Description: "The Glyphid Titan is what happens when a Hiveguard manages to fully pupate into its final form. Its skin manages to harden even further making it near impossible to destroy. The only weakness it shows is that it always has a weak point of some kind visible. If you encounter one, prepare to fight for your life, for it will stop at nothing to end yours."
The Glyphid Titan serves as the tank like hunt boss. It has several weak points across it's body that open at various points. The more damaged it becomes, the faster it's weak points will change, as well as it will gain new abilities to fight with.
Attacks:
(Base) Slam- The Titan will raise up and let loose a massive shockwave. The area it will slam on is highlighted before the attack.
(Base) Bash- The Titan proceeds to do a brief charge at any close dwarves, sending them flying in the process.
(Base) Flame Belch- The Titan spews out a large wave of flames from its mouth, burning all in its wake.
(75% health) Summon Sentinels- The Titan calls 3 Glyphid Sentinels to reinforce it.
(50% health) Earthquake- The Titan slams the ground causing an earthquake. Several boulders will fall from the ceiling in the process.
(25% health) Rolling Ram- The Titan curls up into a ball and proceeds to charge forth, crushing everything in its path.
I have a few more enemy concepts such as the Glyphid queen and the Rival destroyer.

UX improvement suggestion.
Due to limited storage in steam cloud it's quickly fills up with spammy backup saves,
which results into unsetelling message about steam cloud being "unable to sync".
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/258990272967475200/1034130865707560990/unknown.png
I suggest two methods how to remedy that, and mostly it revolves around steam cloud's Pattern parameter (https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/cloud#setup).
- Store only one uncompressed save file on the steam cloud (for this default
*.savpattern could be changed to:*_Player.savwithout any significant modifications to the game code) - Store several compressed save files that grouped into one archive or separetly compressed (for this could be used open source library that's supports fast algorithms like lz4, so it could be launched every time after closing the game and saving it to file with specific name that will be picked up by steam cloud and stored appropriately)

Hoverclock 2 for M1000
Hover on focus shot
Explosive focus shot (very small)

This goes hand and hand with the movement tech used for scout. Being most careful to avoid getting beat to death by bugs but also having the ability to fight while swinging from the ceiling. Just added that 15% fall damage mercy in because I know for a fact scouts will be falling off the ceiling extra with this
This alternatively could be for the crossbow as well. Both have slow rates of fire and hoverclock on the crossbow would be pretty useful
No scout player is going to be sad they got another hoverclock option
You may laugh but cannot dispute this flawlessly adding to improve the scout movement game

New Utility For Engineer: Rosco
Description: So, you managed to sneak your way into the R&D assembly lines and steal yourself a functional, though not quite finished APD model? Let's just hope management doesn't find out about this one.
Your "misplaced" APD model "Rosco" can be switched with your sentries. It has a lot of the same utilities as Bosco; it can light up areas, hold items, help you mine and carry items, and even revive you (or another teammate of your choosing).
Of course, with this being an unfinished model, Rosco would not be able to access any weapon but its primary turret. You will have to recharge Rosco if it were to run out of charge, along with refilling it with ammo. Rosco starts off every mission fully charged and loaded, and you have just one recharge on you until you get another via resupply drop.
Rosco's able to hold more ammo than your conventional turret, although it is a bit weaker. You can hold R to summon Rosco or to call him back to save battery. You will not be able to use Rosco in solo missions unless Bosco is unselected.
Why I think this would be a great addition: I personally believe that trading out defensive capabilities for much more utility to benefit yourself and your team could open up for interesting gameplay. (This is still an idea in progress, if you have any additions or advice please DM me, thank you for your time.)
kindred kettle
Elimination missions would be more enjoyable if the dwarves' various choices and configurations of weaponry had more interactions with the Dreadnoughts. Most of the weapons that shoot things that aren't bullets currently kind of suck to use against them.
-
Dreadnoughts heat up slowly because they're big. It would make sense if the heat also dissipated at a much slower rate, allowing incendiary weapon users to ignite them with a reasonable amount of effort.

Armor breaking mods could give weapons a scaled-down damage bonus against the Dreadnoughts' shells. The damage bonus could be equal to around 10% of the mod's listed armor breaking bonus, so a weapon with a mod that increases armor breaking by +300% would deal +30% more damage to a Dreadnought's shell.
-
Maybe remove the Dreadnoughts' resistance to explosions. Area-of-effect weapons are already generally less efficient against isolated targets when compared to their direct-damage counterparts.

Would heavily appreciate if we could have both the long grapple range and Regen speed I think it's hurting the scout class not being able to have both.
There are lots of cases where the grapple becomes literally useless for the scout because of how the cave generates, whether it be ridiculously tall or just has some janky generation that renders the grapple useless because it doesn't have that extra lick of range or you can't regen fast enough to get off the ground, and seeing how that's one of the only tools the scout can use to not get beaten to death it would be better if you could just have an actual good grapple instead of trying to balance speed for range since you don't gain any advantage other than not getting mauled by stuff on the floor
Would he nice to also have a mode that lets me perma grapple to stuff so I can mine stuff on the ceiling without doing some god mode movement tech. Major pain in the ass to spiderman off the roof to go try to mine stuff while also trying to fight the maximum human dosage of mactera tri-jaws

Overclock idea for the Minigun (but could probably be pretty easy to convert to autocannon too)
Gravitation Module
"We've figured out a way to use your guns kinetic energy from spinning up to displace your weight, allowing you to have a low-gravity effect while rev'd up. However, it does take longer to spin up and uses a bit of heat"
Positives
-While spun up, its as if you are under the effect of the Low Gravity modifier, or a nerfed version of it at least (if you have the low gravity modifier in the mission, just double the effects of it)
Negatives
-It takes twice as long to spin up the gun
-Gun passively heats itself while spun up
Personally I just think it would be fun for Gunner to have some mobility overclocks (other than Combat Mobility lmao). Also all the talk of hoverclock sequels just had me thinking about this recently
round hill
Hoverclock 3 for the GK2 (balanced)
**Hover on focus shot
+15 damage
+30 ammo
Gun can only fire semi automatic**
Now before everyone says I have mental illness, here is where this would actually be fun to play
With the M1000 with hoverclock the chad way of playing is to spiderman on the ceiling, drop halfway, pop off a focus shot and grapple back to the roof since you missed your shot and are now falling to your doom
Now what would make this different is because it has a bit of a higher fire rate you could pop off multiple shots at your enemy much faster as you fall and break your legs. Also makes the gk2 not a snooze fest

A gk2 oc idea. "Converts all bullets into canisters of pressurized air, which blasts a jet of air into bugs upon contact. However the fire rate has to be reduced severely to prevent explosions and less bullets can fit in the magazine because of the size" it would do much higher weakpoint damage, as well as just higher damage in general and easily breaks through bugs armor. however the fire rate would be much lower and magazine size would be smaller.

copied from my post in the general chat
imagine they added a shield overclock where any dwarves inside the shield shooting outwards will cause some of their damage to be absorbed by it, then when the shield runs out, it creates a massive pulse of damage across the room based on the absorbed damage.
Bigger suggestion is essentially overclocks for traversal/special tools. This was just one example

Make it so that when you drink dark morkite, the electric properties of the beer influences the scanner's properties, and thus every morkite vein in the level is shown on the terrain scanner.
It's way better than getting more morkite per pick like the original drink:
+It doesn't feel cheap and actually feels like you are being more productive, old dark morkite doesnt even seem to have a multiplier
+With old dark morkite, in normal missions you would have already collected all the morkite before you reached the final cave. Now if you want to explore the last cave, you can deduce how much morkite is in the last cave and thus not spend time mining the one in your current cave.
+It's ultimately more comfortable showing the morkite in Deep Dives rather than getting a little more morkite. They end up being faster.

The ability to buffer sprinting!
There's lots of times where I am doing certain actions, not able to sprint, but I press the button because well, I need to start moving ASAP.
I'm not asking for the ability to sprint any time, I'd just like for example, say, if I were mid-air, to be able to press and hold the button, and as soon as my dwarf lands, he'd start sprinting, rather than having to press the button after I land. It keeps the flow of gameplay going in my opinion.

'Bulldog' Heavy Revolver overclock: AI Assist (Balanced)
Attaching some LOK-1 tech to the gun and fiddling with its inner workings lets you hold down the trigger to place up to four locks on enemies and release the trigger to fire perfectly aimed rounds that pierce armour. However, the modifications restrict the cylinder's movement, slowing down firerate when fired normally and greatly slowing down reloads.
Can acquire target locks and fire bursts in a similar manner to the LOK-1
Slower firerate outside of this functionality
Much slower reloading

For when plaguefall drops, can Glyphids, rival drones, and other non-effected enemies attack anything infected with rock-pox?

Impact Axe: Flicks it, causing the axe to deploy. Admires the blade for a second before flicking it again to retract the blades. "Old fashioned, but effective!"
HE Grenade: Pulls the pin while holding the spoon down, spins it around on his finger while examining the grenade, then replaces the pin. "Man, this thing's simple, but ancestors above does it work!"
Neurotoxin Grenade: Let it roll off his fingers causing it to be popped upwards slightly, lets it fall back into his hand. "It's hard to overstate my satisfaction with these babies!"
Buzzsaws: Hits the button on the side causing the saws to rev up briefly. Voice line suggestion is just an evil laugh.
LURE: Taps the side, causing a mini hologram to pop out and wave at him before disappearing. "Testing testing, still working?"
Plasma Burster: Carefully holds it up to example the tanks on the sides before returning to ready stance. "I built this thing, and it still feels dangerous..."
Proxy Mine: Pulls a screwdriver from nowhere (third person animation should be from his beard) and twists it against the mine, causing the spikes to pop out, then retract. "Really oughtta look into getting these things to stick to bugs directly."
Shredder Swarm: I got nothing.

Engineers should be able to command their turret to prioritize certain 'weight classes' of enemies. Allow Engi to interact with his turret and swap between focusing on Small, Normal, Large, and Boss type enemies; Small would be swarmer-type enemies, Normal would be things like grunts and Mactera, you get the picture. It would introduce more thought into using the turret and allow you some agency over how your turret utilizes its ammo.

So this may be a bit of a hot take but I think salvage missions should be reworked to be more unique compared to the other fantastic missions we have. 🙂
Currently salvage missions can be broken down as follows
- find mules
- repair mules
- holdout at black box
- holdout at fuel line (next to black box)
- holdout until drop pod is ready (same spot)
3/5 of the mission takes place in basically the same location doing the same thing. Between the refinery and escort missions, the beginning of sabotage missions, plus random events like hacking that can be found on any mission, there are a lot of defend the point objectives right now which personally I find more interesting than salvage missions. Out of all my friends this is universally one of the 2 least favorite mission types (usually the bottom). Its just a lot of holding down the interact button and staying in 1 spot which makes it feel a bit grindy.
My suggestion on what a salvage mission could be...
What if you are taking down an abandoned outpost. The Company has decided its no longer a high value location and wants their equipment back. You need to break down parts of the outpost maybe grab documents or some other McGuffin. (could be a research lab on the plague) My favorite thought for this is that you need to remove the parameter defenses which are keeping a constant wave of enemies at bay. (this gives a built in difficulty curve for the level. less defenses means more enemies to fight.) Doing something like this would give a bit more spice and unique flavor to the mission so it stands out more. It could be as simple as a large chamber devoid, or light on, minerals with turrets on most of the exists. You have to leave to find resources outside while you dismantle everything inside.

Perhaps add some "survival-esque" type endless missions. Say, mission control needs you to draw a massive horde of bugs away from some hypothetical greenbeards on their first mission. Rewards of credits and minerals could scale with the time you spend fighting off bugs, perhaps every 10 minutes a drop pod could take you to a different cave/layout, like an endless deep dive? I just feel like an ever-increasing endurance test would be fun, maybe even add some special boss waves at certain times

More Salvage Operation variation. There could be a pool of possible issues with the drop pod, two of which would be selected at random each mission. Possibly:
Lost Connection - same as now
Expired Fuel - same as now
Encased - The drop pod is encased in strange see through resin. You have to pickaxe enough of it away before it can move again (upon hitting a certain %, the rest can just "collapse"). However, the resin is loaded with chemicals that attract angry bugs - the more you pickaxe, the more bugs you call upon yourselves.
Torn Into - Glyphids have torn into the drop pod and damaged important internal components. Upon a dwarf "diagnosing" the pod, MC sends in a container of replacement parts. They all classify as heavy objects and the container only dispenses the next part once the previous one has been swapped into the pod. The bugs prioritize swarming/attacking the replacement part and whoever got close to it, hopefully making for an escort-like experience. The final part should be a big metal plate to weld onto the drop pod and seal the hole in it.

I think it'd be great to have a way to clear out hanging vines and the like from some of the biomes. They clutter the vision like crazy and unlike spider webs I don't seem to be able to clear them out even with my flame thrower.
Maybe an extra tool akin to the traversal one called "Defoliant" that would have a very low ammo count but allow us to clear it out where it's needed. It could even be something we can't reload at supply drops forcing us to think before using it.
Alternatively pickaxe swings could "yank" them down and clear it. Maybe even accumulating a swing speed debuff the more we do until the pickaxe is "Cleaned" how we'd trigger a clean idk, but it could also lead to an extra perk that'd be admitedly very situational but could be like "Pickaxe swings are less affected by vines tangled in it"
Maybe a bosco upgrade for those of us who solo allowing him to cut down the plants?
Regardless I'm sure something could be made to make them a bit less annoying.

SUGGESTION: 2 New Bulk Detonator Variants!
"Miners, It seems the lithophage was more powerful than we thought. It has infected one of Hoxxes's most powerful creatures... Not only this, but competetive evolution for similar niches has progressed the virulence of another infection. We now are faced against two new variants of the Bulk Detonator..."
Lithophage & Goo Detonator:
- Both function similarly: explode and leave behind a substance
- Goo detonator is regular fungal bog / goo bomber goo
- Lithophage "goo" will grow around you, as seen in S3 trailer, but can be cleaned with the proper equipment.

Craft your gunner an accuracy and revive speed cocktail, the scout takes a movement boost, engineer has a brew that gives him faster assembly time for things like turrets and uplinks, and driller drinks the blood of the innocent.

Mision idea: Stronghold-Defense
- An on-site testing stronghold drops into the caves. Inside the stronghold are multiple different testing benches,
as well as a deposit module in the center. - Samples must be collected from the environment, these could be mineral-based or organic-based such as
Exploder Sacks and Umanite. - Samples are to worked on at a bench to refine into data, of which then gets sent back. Once all the samples
have been collected, refined, and sent back, the drop pod can be called. - In the meantime, swarms of enemies will try to breach the testing facility and it's up to you to hold them off
until you get those samples sent out. Once the defenses have been breached it's game over. - Build your defenses, fortify walls, and add artillery to the stronghold based on which class you are to drive
back invaders and get the mission done.

💡 When the Dreadnought Hive Guard is doing its Phase 3 "throw explosive anal polyps at you" attack, there should be better proximity feedback when the projectiles are spawning -- oftentimes they spawn either inside the player or directly in front/behind the player, making them hard to see when focusing the Hive Guard itself and often resulting in critical existence failure.
Suggestions:
- a screen flash/effect
- Fiery sparks shooting up when in close proximity to spawning projectiles
- Shaking camera when in close proximity to spawning projectiles
- A loud hissing/fizzling noise when in close proximity to spawning projectiles

Finisher Moves/Animations for Dreadnoughts.
When a Dreadnought is damaged for an amount that would kill it, it instead survives for about 10 more seconds with a sliver of health (Note that it is stunned and cannot do anything in this time). Within this 10 second window, a Team Member may trigger an animation to "Finish" The Dreadnought with a Badass move. If the 10 seconds pass, the Dreadnought just dies.
pine olive
On the topic of audio sliders.
Idea: Separate slider for "utility sounds".
What the hell is a "utility sound":
Utility sound is a term I use to refer to any sound effect that has zero function outside of alerting you some part of your gear is changed. Shields make a unique sound when recharging and when hitting full charge. Power Attack makes a unique sound when it's fully recharged. Born Ready makes a unique sound when fully recharged, which is then covered by your Dwarf yelling "BORN READY".
Why: A lot of what I call utility sounds are quiet in comparison to the chaos of DRG. All of them (except Born Ready) have a visual component, but that tends to get lost in the chaos of shooting bugs. Adding a slider to let you bump the volume would help players tell what's going on by sound cues alone.
Why should they add this instead of just telling players to increase Sound Effect volume:
Sound Effect volume is tied to a lot of things besides just your shield recharging. If you bump Sound Effect volume, you bump the sound of Glyphids screaming, gunfire, pickaxe clinks, drill revving, explosions, Molly noises, etc.

Please fix salutes, E actions and pickaxe swinging, salutes have been taking priority over other actions since the start of season 2 and it’s very annoying still. I only play with my friends now because I just can’t stand being reminded of the way salutes and the rest of the game actions used to be before they needlessly made them an intrusion on the rest of gameplay without being with my friends to distract me from it. I used to play solo with randoms all the time and the game just keeps reminding me of how much worse all actions feel as well as the salute.
Along with the reworked action code pickaxe animation cancelling sometimes just doesn’t work, delaying my pickaxe swing for no reason, actions sometimes fail to trigger especially in pipeline missions…
The whole rework just made the game feel worse and my whole experience of the game has been impacted as a result.
The game is still good but i’m no longer hyped to play it every day because it just feels worse than it’s ever felt.

Lost packs should give cargo crate rewards when you have gotten all lost pack rewards, and weapon overclocks from missions and deep dives should give you cosmetic OCs rather than blanks to speed up the massive grind for machine events and disparity between cargo crates and lost packs resulting in lost packs being completed much much quicker than cargo crates despite similar spawn rates and resulting in lost packs being pointless discoveries late into the game.

Ok I know we're already getting cool grenades in season 3, but I just got an idea for a scout grenade that I really like. It'd function something like an IFG, only instead of a big slowdown dome, it spawns an anti-gravity field on the floor. If the Scout or any of his teammates step in it, they get temporary low gravity; This would not be fun to mess around with as Scout with his grappling hook and Special Powder OC, but also give Scout some way to mobilize his whole team, (While still being more limited than Ziplines, Drills, or Platforms since the anti-grav field would disappear after a few seconds

I want to start by saying that I am not an avid consumer of deep rock media, I just enjoy the game and don't want to see my main be insulted. I do not know the lingo, so if I get any pre-existing terms wrong please don't discredit the idea.
This has been said before, but I think scout is a bit strong and selfish. I don't think his grappling hook particularly benefits the team in any major way. I understand he is meant to be a strong solo class, but my proposed rework to his movement ability will improve his teamplay capability, while still allowing him strong solo play.
I propose than in place of a grappling hook, Scout has the ability to lay pitons and rope on a wall as a "bridge" for his team to cross gaps or climb walls. The dwarves would be able to attach a harness to this "bridge", and climb horizontally or vertically across walls.
- The dwarves would also be able to hit space to rappel straight down from any point along the length, and would be able to climb back up at any point in the rappel. The rappel would end automatically shortly before contacting the ground.
- To place the pitons, Scout would walk next to a wall and begin climbing freely, and as he climbs across the wall he would automatically place the pitons as he climbs, moving at 60% walking speed as he does so. Subsequent uses of the path would move at normal walking speed.
- Scout would have a limited amount of rope starting at 100m (guessing based on 30m grappling hook range.)
- Placed pitons would be permanent, unless the piton or the wall behind the piton is mined or otherwise destroyed. If this is done, the length of rope is returned to scout.
- The pitons would have upgrades along the lines of more rope, faster movement while placing the pitons, and faster movement while traversing the bridge.
- Some more unorthodox upgrades could include placing pitons on the roof, and as a first tier upgrade, being able to mine while on the pitons.

A giant two handed Hammer that releases a shockwave upon impact with the ground. Will follow cave walls around, has no use against aerial enemies unless they're near the ground. Does extra damage in melee range.
Unsure of this one but:
Gunner
The Runic Barricade
A giant shield inscribed with runes infused with bug pharamones and charged with power. Attracts bugs when held and upon impact sends out a damaging pulse that can stagger. Ammo is based on hits taken.
Such fine traditional Dwarven weapons would harken to our history and show that ever the old ways have a place.

Idea:
Rarely, a dwarf will do a class specific animation when Saluting.
Why:
Funny Easter Egg and flavor.
Animation suggestions:
Struggles to raise his pickaxe one handed, ends up having to support his wrist halfway through.
"Rock...and...ssstone..."
Salutes while holding his pickaxe upside down, realizes his screwup, fixes it and Salutes again.
"ROCK! AND- Oh shit. STOOOOOOOOOONE!"
Salutes with the hammer he uses to build sentries.
"BOLTS AND GEARS!"
Does the Tusken Raider thing.
I have no idea how to write a Tusken Raider yell.

This has probably been suggested already, but it'd be nice to have a profanity filter option for dialogue/chat so folk could play with their kids.

If Dotty is saved during a Deep Dive, her head stays in the drop pod for the rest of the mission instead of disappearing. :)
fickle nexus
I just saw a Nemesis spawn 2 meters away from me. I'd like to suggest that the possibility of such an event in the game be decreased to zero.

Secondary Grenades
We now have even more grenades to choose from, but that also means more grenades most players will never use after the novelty wears off for being "the new thing". So many grenades are very niche in their uses, with many agreed upon "best" grenades for each class in both build support and utility situations. We might see more use of them if we can have a secondary grenade in each loadout to take on missions.
The secondary grenade would have half the ammo as it normally would, otherwise be unaltered. Can just add a context button in the loadout/grenade selection menu for setting the primary/secondary grenade per loadout.
There are probably other ways to make them selectable during play, but my thought as a controller player would be that it can be selected like how we call down a resupply where we tap Down on the D-pad twice to go from class special (turret, shield, satchel, flaregun) to the resupply.
Similarly we could tap up twice to go from traversal tool to other grenade. Double tap up again to switch back. It shouldn't unequip the traversal tool or interrupt them in any way, so u can be grappling or drilling and change the active grenade without missing a step. M/KB players have a lot more bind options, but this would feel right on a controller.
This way we could take our Impact Axes and play with the Ripper, or the Freeze grenades and a couple Boomerangs, etc.

Idea for a balanced sludge pump overclock
Chilling concoction:
Adding some liquid nitrogen to the sludge will cause it to freeze anything unfortunate enough to touch it. However this means that the acids in it are less potent and you can’t hold as much ammo in a mag due to the expanding gas
Sludge applies the freezing effect
Direct damage, corrosive damage decreased, and mag capacity decreased
