suggestions

[limpid spear]

Active Perk idea "One last push": When downed you can slowly crawl for a short distance. Useful especially for Scouts dying in high places.

[willow grotto]

Dark Future as a skin seems pretty inconsistent to how it applies colors to masks- and in some cases monochromatic blows it out of the water with how it causes items to glow. I know it won't happen but it would be nice if the glowing on Dark future was expanded/changed to be brighter

[crisp robin]

I've got an idea for a new bug, I'm thinking an incredibly powerful bug that is watching over its young like a mother, it is not directly hostile but will not tolerate anything getting close to the babies. I'm thinking a mantis-like creature with slasher arms that would do quick swipes to keep things from getting close but would not give chase. If anything actually managed to hurt/kill one of the babies though? Imagine a witch from left 4 dead, screams at you and then charges into the fray, maybe not an instant kill but would be very close to one. It could also attack glyphids that get close as it is not part of the glyphid family. I'm thinking it could spawn either in pre-determined nests upon cave generation or in the random spawn pool as wandering around with the kids following behind like ducklings following their mom but much more horrifying because its a bloody car sized mantis.

[tiny grove]

Quick small idea.

When you deposit the Yuletide Elf into Molly, there’s a small chance that when you deposit again, that you’ll hear knocking sounds coming from the mule, and someone yelling “Hey!” “Hello!” “Helloooo!”

[worthy magnet]

small detail idea:
lloyd should react when you throw stuff at him, specifically i'm thinking about snowballs, lloyd could reel back a bit in response when one of them smacks him upside the head

[latent hazel]

an achievement for having pet every possible pettable object at least once

[surreal moth]

For the Halloween event they should have floating Mission Control heads around hoxxes and if you catch one you get double performance points

[solar sand]

3 distinct hit sounds for when the bullet hits the:

1. armour
2. normal "skin"
3. week spot

This would help people intuitively learn quicker to hit the right spots and also recognise how often they hit armour (to aid in the decision if they need to choose armour piercing in their build).

It seems like at least the scout has sound for when he shoots week spots with his SMG and in this old DRG trailer (https://youtu.be/RwlwtZM6HhM?t=503 (8:23)) the gunner seems to have the sound for when he hits armour. That was really nice.

[sleek river]

jukebox on the dive pod to blast the dwarf equivalent of fortunate son on the way in and out of Hoxxes

Add elfs to the bestiary

[tough bobcat]

Don't make the game reload every time I can't join a server

[somber sequoia]

can we get a timestamp with "Time Left:" for time limited assignments?
(i keep shidding me pant not knowing)

[quasi shuttle]

Let me Poke maggots And gimme special voice lines for pinging bloopy fruit

[minor tartan]

Not sure if someone asked this or not but can we get Smartgun and Missile tracking for yuletide elves? i cannot hit the dang things fast enough with my smartgun making it take upwardds of 10 minutes to keep hunting the stupidd thing down.

[soft snow]

Wait why doesn't Bosco pick up dropped elves? He'll be funny looking if he will hold one and it would help if it dropped somewhere unreachable
Please let him babysit our elves please🥺🥺

[magic merlin]

Mission idea: Rescue Mission, your team is sent into a cave to recover a team of greenbeards. Your team has to fight their way to the greenbeards and safely escort them to a new drop pod location. The greenbeards can die along the way and you get a higher level payout the more dwarves you safely escort. Also, if any greenbeards die, you have to carry their dead bodies back to the new drop pod location or suffer a major reward penalty. Also having the side mission of helping them complete their mission might be interesting.

[mighty wedge]

rare event: when calling for the drop pod, after a few moments MC will announce that there has been a technical difficulty and that the drop pod will arrive late. the bug spawns will be bumped up as normal and we'll have to survive for like 3-4 minutes, to help us, MC will send 1 supply pod with a unique label at a random location, instead of ammo, opening the supply pod will pop out an ai controlled lloyd armed with guns and rockets. when the timer is up the drop pod will come down along with the timer as normal. bonus xp per player that survived the event

event cant occur in salvage op

[alpine marten]

New friendly fire voice line: "That's going STRAIGHT in the book!" [of grudges]

[raw crater]

For April fools the dwarfs and mission control should switch places having mission control as a playable character and having the dwarfs talk to you as mission control during missions(of course they would likely say the opposite of what the mission control guy might say as well as make fun of mission control in the process)

[worldly coral]

Strike the earth shout line

[bitter wasp]

Forgot to add this earlier, it could be a lithophage gun, which applies an effect that slows down bugs, decreases armor/body damage but increases weakpoint/melee(ebonite is also a rock plague) damage as the effect intensifies, and instead of catching on fire/freezing, when the effect reaches the max it would temporarily turn them solid and make them invincible, but would do massive damage and reset the effect soon after,

[inland gulch]

give bosco the ability to repair mini mules, uplinks, fuel cells, rock crackers, and sentries as well as the ability to carry elves and nanite bombs

[flint knot]

Give us the option to separate weapon loadouts from cosmetic loadouts. I'd like to be able to mix it up and use a different build on certain cosmetic loadouts, without having to redesign them entirely.

[humble swan]

Instead of boring "Hacking is noisy and attracts bugs" make it trip an alarm and awaken security spiderbots.

[normal sphinx]

Give the first ammo buff to the base engineer AI gun so that I don't run out of ammo twice as fast as all my teammates, even when running an ammo build.

[twilit dagger]

As a nice little toutch, i think that it would be nice if we could custimise our traversal tools with the paint jobs we have for our dwarves. I believe it would add another toutch of personality to our dwarves.

[idle stone]

Add yuletide skins for guns

[lyric coral]

If a lootbug eats enough gold (roughly the same amount a golden lootbug drops) it turns into a golden lootbug.

[latent hazel]

itd be nice if pipe grinding had a bit more control, like, the ability to hold back to skid to a stop without having to jump off, or holding forward to put more speed into a downwards slope

[near glacier]

"stupid idea" Add caramel dancen in the jukebox

[river sentinel]

procedural generated overclocks (+ and - only not the whole weapon changers) and maybe some trade system with players dealing with eachother (like for example rivens in warframe)

[timber pilot]

I would love a Yuletide-themed Ale! Praetorian Eggnog or Santa Stout

[swift fern]

for a season, do a season where the enemies just "mutate", and take it as a chance to add in a bunch of new base enemy types

[spare vessel]

Give Veteran Depositor the ability to deposit large minerals from a distance by tossing them at molly.
When doing this successfully the dwarf makes a basketball joke.

[quasi harbor]

Make VIR magma an environmental heat source at intensity 1 and maybe reduce the applied heat to balance it out

[ripe pendant]

Make manual guidance cutoff have it so whenever you let go of the trigger the missiles just auto-home onto the target you were last looking at

[serene current]

Let us use the Yuletide Elf armour paintjob on other armours, and different paintjobs on the Elf armour.

[carmine thicket]

Engineer Auto-aim overclock suggestion, make it so whatever target is locked on, nearby turrets also fire on the target with the same amount of locks in a rapid burst, maybe less locks or direct damage as a penalty, not sure about downsides but having an overclock for LOK-1 that interacts with turrets would be really nice, like a target painter

[near glacier]

I genuinely do think a hazard 6 would be a good addition

That or more incapacitating enemies

[upbeat sierra]

We need a gruesome woodchipper sound effect for when you deposit a Yuletide Elf in the minehead, drop pod, or refinery

[tight mango]

can the more carrying capacity upgrades; deep pockets and bigger mineral bag be better? even if you take both your carry capacity is only increased by 20 for 60 would be nice to have 70-80 capacity by adding 5 to both of them for
deep pockets +15 > +20 capacity
bigger mineral bag +5 > + 10 capacity

[latent hazel]

shard diffractor should melt ice in glacial strata, as the flamethrower does

[rain sparrow]

Let us make snowballs out of the heavy snow in the Glacial Strata

[wild kettle]

I think it’d be nice to be able to choose a special beer for always 5 of every beer-crafting material (starch nut, barley, etc.), but the rotation can stay as a random discount.
It seems a little silly to have to reset until you get what you want (like RRB for an EDD) or to just accept that the game wants to give you something extremely situational like backbreakers

[wild kettle]

Hitting Molly with your pickaxe power attack should make her move a little bit faster for a few seconds
That way there’s more of a reason to follow her during evac, which I think would be much more fun/interactive than driller-tunneling every game
And if there’s a scout behind the rest of the team, that would allow him to catch up much faster with Molly.

Give the grunt you are taming (steeve) a lil head tilt animation

[lyric coral]

Being able to shoot sniper turrets deployed by the caretaker before they land.

[wild kettle]

The sprint-breathing sound should be higher pitched in Rich Atmosphere

[native dagger]

very major suggestion: allow bosco to carry the elf. I had to leave a couple behind due to the fact bosco apparently can't carry the very carry-able body with his butter-finger lookin graspers

[wild kettle]

I don’t see anyone use the Breach Cutter much anymore ever since the Shard Diffractor was added.

Perhaps the Breach Cutter should have a Mod like scouts plasma rifle has, that allows it to electrocute enemies, instead of needing to use an entire Overclock that doesn’t really do much.
I’m thinking it could be a T4 Mod, with Armor Breaking and Stun.

Additionally, the High Voltage Crossover overclock (which currently grants electrocution but -1 mag capacity) could then give bonus electric damage, like the Stubby, instead of electrocution
This would allow more electric builds to be legitimately viable, especially against the Rivals (instead of just heat).

[grave moth]

New biome idea:
Something similar to rotten vale from monster hunter world. A deep and dark part of hoxxes filled with skeletons and decay.
-The horror aspect of DRG is one that could be expanded upon in future seasons. I think a glyphid feeding ground full of dead creatures and bottom feeders would be a unique location to fit that atmosphere.

• generated objects could include giant skeletons and creature skulls, maybe even giant rib cages along the roof of certain caves implying this tunnel only exists because it was once the inside of a giant beast.
• similar to the sandstorms and blizzards, a thick darkness could set in occasionally, muffling the sounds of glyphids and building tension.
• unique monsters could include "sprinter" glyphids, which would crawl at normal speeds until they get within a certain distance, and then charge and pounce on you. Would really benefit from the darkness setting in.
• of course this is still deeprock so i dont think it would need to take itself too seriously or make it feel like youre playing a horror game, just some more suspensful mechanics could give the whole "exploration" part of the game more depth

[elder blaze]

Steeve should get a Santa hat for the duration of the event

[old grove]

we should totally be able to slap the hanging ordainments like gunkseeds

[dry vortex]

when you hold a snowball you have no screenshake
this feels odd when walking, and extremely weird while running (oh and it doesn't play the running footsteps sound)
maybe give it screenshake?

[woven python]

beards with more cosmetics like lights just like christmas trees

[willow tapir]

Option to completely disable post-processing effects.

[west cove]

ability for a bulk detonator to spawn (extremely rare) when breaking open presents
as a bonus make it have elite status

[dry vortex]

elite lootbug

[violet lotus]

loot bugs big brother: think huge tanky behemoth, absolutely terrifying but drops insane amounts of gold...or maybe like 3 or 4 compressed gold

[raw tree]

Large beard cosmetics that have those small Rival tech swarming drones in them

[worthy magnet]

ideas for new words to add to the mission name generator

adjective ideas: Prehistoric, Brittle, Chitinous, Gaping, Uncontrollable, Gloomy, Malicious, The Original, Scorched, Blasted, Meager, Shining, Torn, Living, Gnashing

noun ideas: Emptiness, Wager, Creation, Flows, Existence, Continent, Garden, Wastes, Hive, Beard, Maw

I just think the more words you can add to that generator the better, so i really like the idea of maybe every major update to the game bringing new mission title options, it'd be nice to see

(also slightly related, depending on how complicated it is to code, it'd be interesting if sometimes dwarves/mission control had special lines they'd say relating to a few of the possible options for mission names
ex. when you complete a mission where the adjective is 'uncontrollable' your dwarf could say, "uncontrollable my ass!")

[lavish monolith]

Being able to transfer saves from Xbox to PlayStation and vice versa. Pretty please 🥺

[bleak stratus]

Vertically mounted turrets

[worn meadow]

Suggest: New type of missions type. "Checkpoint Control" missions with more liniar caves where you have to destroy and hack checkpoints of the rival company. Maps with 3-4-5 checkpoints, where you have to kill drones, turrets, snipers, etc... And after you destroy the defence you start hack something to steal data cubes, and after you clear one checkpoint, you can advance to the 2nd checkpoint and so on.

Checkpoints being like some mini bases with mini bosses to hack or kill to get some data from them.

[sacred meadow]

Glyphid Queen - Boss Fight.
She's guarded by 2 baby dreadnaughts (half hp ) she is invulnerable till both are dead.
her guards do not respawn.
So effectively Phase 1 kill 2 half dreadnaughts. Phase 2 Fight the queen and whittle away her hp while dodgeing and killing the waves she throws at you. Wave 1 swarmers, wave 2 glyphids. final wave elite oppressor?

[mortal hill]

Really feel like yuletid elfs should double MISSION XP, and not just PERFORMANCE XP, it feels so... useless... to people that already reached level 100 of the season =/

[sweet jackal]

can you please add a twerking emote when you dance

[stuck iris]

I was wondering why this isn't in but why not make bosco defend at least one rock cracker like how he defends hack-c or doretta when you point at them with the laser pointer

[nimble meteor]

Crassus Detonator right now explodes all over the place and making a need for mining the gold. But how about instead the gold veins spawned are smaller but the Crassus drops 3 or so compressed gold? Sorta like the Korlock. So that dwarves can ping "We're Rich" and save the tedium of mining all the gold for some all whilst keeping the feeling of being incredibly rich.

[near glacier]

Add an eyewear slot to our wardrobe or move some of the eyewear cosmetics over to the sideburn slot. Our dwarves must look equally fashionable in their conditioner use as with covering a black eye after a scuffle with an elf. This one has been asked for quite often already, but the more outfit options the better!

[finite magnet]

Add crab rangoon to the abyss bar

[bleak stratus]

To elaborate, you currently put turrets on the floor, but, I think turrets on the walls and ceilings would be cool.

[bleak pawn]

Add a secret event boss that only spawns when you put everything in the drop pod landing zone and its literally management coming down to kick your butt personally as they are tired of your shenanigans.. Rewards you nothing but a trip to the infirmary.

[silk hamlet]

add a chance for presents to spawn a gunk seed outside of gunk seed missions

[merry sorrel]

Perhaps the taming animation could be putting the hat on the bug

[uneven wadi]

it's been almost a year since i've heard the devs wanted to make a glyphid farm in the space rig in a livestream
Where is my Lootbug garden management!?!
WHERE DO I PUT MY LOOTBUGS!?! there space on the second floor!!!

[neon crater]

Make a small chance of summoning a swarm by pointer spamming. With mission control saying something like "Looks like a glyphid swarm wants to celebrate with you. Get ready." or "You seem to alert every bug in the cave with your screams. A swarm is moving towards you.".

[rain niche]

Giving hosts the ability to not allow duplication for deep dives would be beneficial. Currently, you can only prevent late join duplication, which can't be done for deep dives since obviously you can't join deep dives late.

[wild storm]

Let us make a Newton's Cradle out of these

[mellow kayak]

Make the new mission introduced in the rival seasons appear in assignments. 99.9% of missions played are for someone's assignment.

[sharp glacier]

Can we have a slide rails around the space rig, like in liquide morkite extraction mission? To get around and what not? The space rig should be a bit bigger may be to make rails fit in 🤔

[wild storm]

A tie-in novel.

[wild kettle]

Be able to slow down (but not stop) while surfing the pipelines in Morkite Refining by holding backwards
Currently you can go full speed,
Come to an immediate full stop,
Or jump off at your current speed

[main steppe]

leaf lover special should have 1% cahnce to transform you into an elf

[rugged vapor]

Let us activate Dash while on an On-Site refining rail. Doubling our grind speed!

Let us go ZOOM

[thorn hatch]

A relatively minor change;

For both the "Yuletide Elf" and armour framework, the lights attached to the framework should glow in the corresponding class colour rather than the current generic yellow they glow with.

This armour framework is the only one to not show any class colours whatsoever, which is in stark contrast to every other framework, which at least makes some attempt to use the class colour as an accent. Class-colour identification seems to be a consistent design choice throughout the years, and having a framework that completely goes against this is very out of place.

[limpid spear]

The color of the present in the yuletide elf armor should reflect the class color: blue gift wrap for scout, yellow for driller, etc.

[near glacier]

For next events, could we please get paintovers of Mission Control in various costumes? (Summer - Sunglasses, Halloween - Some mask, Yuletide - Santa hat etc)

[civic coyote]

Buff Lures to be on par with other engi grenades in terms of damage. Make them zap bugs that attack them like a bug zapping lamp

[wild kettle]

What if after level 100 in the performance pass, the rewards would alternate between 500 credits on even levels, and something like 50 random minerals or 200 XP on odd levels?

[manic crystal]

Lithophage should be able to spawn in such a way as to block passage to objectives.

[marsh prism]

Id like access to the 3d model for TIP-C, the little tipping robot. (i assume his name is TIP-C...)

[grave cobalt]

yuletide hat for Steeve, just while the yuletide event is running (next year, obvs, it's a bit late now)

[dusky wave]

Lootbug invasion Warning or Anomalies (April fools maybe)

[near glacier]

I think it's time the lobby description was editable from the mission map. So many people ask where the option is and quite honestly it's rather hidden

[grand flint]

When reloading the Nishanka Boltshark X-80, the camera movements prevent you from using the Radio Transmitter Module upgrade to pull back your bolt as quickly, and since the glow is a bit weak it can be hard to find it later to retrieve.
I would like to request either the camera movements on reload are removed or don't affect your ability to call over your bolts, or alternatively making missed bolts easier to find (ex: improving the glow) would fix the issue as well without interfering with the balance of how quickly you can retrieve it after missing.

[digital seal]

A gun range in the space rig to test weapon loadouts

[river sentinel]

Chit chat between dwarves during calm segments of missions ( like miner talking about weather in -1000km deep)

[fiery hearth]

I had an idea for Bosco interactions in Salvage, you could ping uplinks/hacking pods to have him focus on providing a signal, acting as if there was a 2nd player boosting the signal (naturally, he wouldnt be able to shoot while doing this)
If the solo player leaves the marked zone, Bosco instead slows the rate at which the bar drops instead of it keeping on

[rose pasture]

I just had a fun idea: If the jukebox is playing and someone throws a snowball at it, it should make a needle scratching sound or something like it, probably from something like the Viscera Cleanup Detail. Can't help but imagine it doing that every time a snowball is thrown at it.

[wild kettle]

Give the Subata another T5 mod
It only has bonus Fire damage and bonus Corrosive damage.
Both are basically useless if you use Cryo Cannon.

[magic hull]

Why can I not have no eyebrows but be shaved everywhere else plz add clean shaven eyebrows 🙏

[worthy magnet]

it makes me incredibly sad that on solo missions i have to leave bosco to certain death in hoxxes' harsh environment.
could there be an option where if you ping the drop pod with your marker tool bosco will go and sit inside?
or maybe simply having it so that if bosco is close enough to the drop pod when you board it, he'll go inside as well? this one would have the added benefit of having a shadow of that 'leave no dwarf behind'
since it'd be sorta like you need to slow down and wait to allow bosco time to board with you
there are probably ways to go about it that i haven't considered, but these are the two i thought of

[honest fable]

May we please be able to change the armor pigment on the elf outfit? And use its colors on other armors? I love the look and would love to mix and match it.

[wispy cape]

Pickaxe customization, the option to leave the rear spike empty.

[hazy otter]

I'm unsure if this has been said before but I have two suggestions. Let me know if they are actually big asks or unfeasible.

1. New voice lines for the vampire perk. Currently when vampire activates you hear the voice lines for red sugar. This really makes no sense all things considered.

2. More music. The game is so fun - it lends itself to playing it for hundreds of hours, I would love to hear a few more songs thrown in if that isn't asking a lot.

[mighty wedge]

daily assignments?

[hybrid terrace]

Going off of the idea for daily assingments, what about like a daily random mission gamble (allow me to explain in more detail).

Once I'm done with all of my assignments and with the battle-pass there's less incentive to play for a while. I think daily assignments are a cool idea, but could become stale due to having too many "do this mission" kind of assignments. What if instead you could do like a "gamble" on a mission that could yield extra minerals or credits:

• So Management is like the House and you're making a bet with them saying you can do this mission and you put X amount of cred/mineral down and if you complete the mission Management will match what you offered, but if you fail you lose it.
• You can only offer up to a certain amount of cred/mineral dependent on the difficulty of the mission as well as the mission modifiers.
• You can only do this bet 2 or 3 times a day.

I could see this spicing up the game for a reason to jump in every now and then, but it could also help with mineral procurement for upgrades and cosmetics. Like I'm always out of Endor Pearls when I need them, so if I bet all of what I had for a chance to double it then I would find that really fun and satisfying. However, if I lost, it would suck but that's what I get for choosing to "gamble" with Management. Thoughts?

[wheat coyote]

Please, please, PLEASE add an option to give the host control over ending missions. Allow team members to press the mule/minehead button, but allow for the host to approve/disapprove the call to exit. I played three games in a row today that were all ended prematurely by a different random person who had joined. In one we even had a bittergem mined but not yet deposited when somebody called for the drop pod. 😦

Also please add a UI or Chat notice for who pushes buttons, similar to the resupply notification. I'd like to know who to block from future games, even if it's impossible to kick somebody for spoiling a game by pressing buttons early.

What started as a pretty good time of DRG today ended up pretty sour because of this, and it's something that I'm running into more and more frequently.

[whole bluff]

how about if we can build pipelines not only in the ground, instead in the walls too ?

[worthy magnet]

this one's kinda silly, but i really like the idea of beast master making lootbugs spit out their minerals when you pet them
i don't actually think it'd have any meaningful gameplay implications, but it sounds fun, and you could get your minerals without the crushing guilt of killing a lootbug

[cursive gorge]

Forge Mastery shouldn't just grant blank matrix cores, but should also grant existing cosmetics that arent unlocked

A mutation called"A blessing in disguise" makes everything permanently blackout drunk

[dry vortex]

Unique voice lines for when you pet a dead steeve

[shadow blade]

A way to show off your pickaxe. Like hold down v and you keep your pick above your head for others to see. Its too hard to show friends my pickaxe in space station when we are comparing drip

[thick sand]

New voicelines from Mission Control for when the extraction timer runs out on Deep Dives: Currently things like "3..2..1.. Returning to Orbit" are said, in contrast to all the other unique dialogue.
Some ideas:
"Moving on team: You had best catch up!"
"We have a schedule to keep! Pod's going to the next stage."
"The droppod was only booked for a 5 minute window - Sorry. Anyway I'm sure we'll see you in the next cave."

[silk hamlet]

instead of length 2, industrial sabotage should be displayed as a length 5 mission so it's less misleading, like so:

[humble rune]

make the lithophage easier to find -.- took forever to spot it hiding in the ceiling

[winter sable]

Suggestion: New Driller addition - a flag that is easy to see that you can put on POIs like the start of a tunnel.

[pale mountain]

Suggestion for oneee small detail

Colette wave cooker has tier 4 upgrade "Wide Lens Addon" that is toggled with R button.
Is it possible to get a little animation where the front lens goes up when u toggle the mod?

[lament grove]

Steeve could enter with us in the drop pod, please?

[gritty hound]

Collecting extra of primary and secondary objectives giving additional pay for going above the minimum requirement. An example of this could be the Payday franchise, where certain missions have a minimum amount of loot you need to grab (Bank heists for example have a 1 bag minimum or something) while giving you the option to go wild and grab more loot for additional pay. Risk VS Reward and all that. I'm sure Management wouldn't say no to getting more than they expected from an expedition as well, saving money on fuel sending drop pods.

[wild hawk]

I'm pretty sure someone's suggested this already, but anyway.

A warning with at least 2x amount of bugs, better randomly from 2x to 5x bugs, and 40-50 nitra resupply cost for this warning. I know there are mods for this, but it's much harder to find a party for modded game.

Or add hazard 6 and hazard 7 difficulties. hz6 is current hz4 but 2.5x bugs 40-50 nitra resupply, and hz7 current hz5 2.5x bugs 40-50 nitra resupply.

[soft snow]

Holding E on a tamed glyphid removes the tamed status and gives them a very strong fear effect for about 2 minutes

Lootbug 'steeve'

[upbeat garden]

[dusk basalt]

Save the Squishies T-shirt armor.

[karmic yew]

This is an idea that kinda overhauls the whole beer system unfortunately, so it probably wont be considered, but having the craft beers give different effects in mission would be great! Like maybe one makes your pickaxe attack faster for the downside of drunkness, the stronger the beer the better the effect! So you'd have to pick a couple beers as to not pass out and lose all of them while also considering the drunkness effects that could also be overhauled to make you have less shield, less accuracy, less damage, less health. I think it'd be a fun system, and would make collecting beer parts a lot more rewarding for players, especially solo only players who don't care for the wacky social cosmetic effects of the beer.

[dusk basalt]

Maybe a spot in the station with a lootbug in a pen you can pay credits to feed like Lloyd's tip system.

[hollow bluff]

i was thinking it might be cute to have a steeve dog house

[sharp hearth]

Add a shoting range

[bleak pawn]

A pvp mission type that involves two teams of players (drg vs rival corp) with different game mode types such as...

• elimination ( last dwarf standing! )
• king of the hill ( reclaim a lost resource pile by holding it a set time or longest)
• capture the flag ( steal the enemies valuable gold chunks!)
• payload (guide dorreta to a destination while rival corp tries to stop you!)
  -many more I haven't come up with.

• Guns would be the same both sides and altered to be balanced on each team, maybe even pick up and droppable like our lithofoamers and vacuums. Think of halo pvp or TF2 but in drg! Open for ideas. Rock and Stone!

[midnight cove]

Add lights you can put down to mark caves like a flag you stick into the ground but change the flag with a glowstick basically a pole with a glowstick at the top end.

Limit of 5-10 so people cant just mark everything

Make it so you can resupply them.

Make it so the light is the color of the dwarfs glowsticks.

[worthy magnet]

aight so, people have been suggesting a shooting range for a while, but i got an idea on how they might be able to make a shooting range possible
what if the shooting range was basically a second drop pod, in that it takes you to a new location away from the space rig
well, in lore it'd just take you to another part of the space rig, but gameplay wise it'd basically just be taking you down to the planet's surface
the difference between the shooting range and the planet though is that the range would only have a single room to pull from, and therefore it wouldn't ever be generated differently, and there is no objective, so you can just return whenever you want
as someone with no experience in game development, i have no idea if this would actually be able to function in-game, i'm sure there are a million different game development problems that could come with this, but it sounds like it could work to my dumb little dumb small dumb brain

[silk hamlet]

is an in-lore explanation really the huge deal about a shooting range in drg? why not just explain that it's in vr

[young agate]

I personally think it would be fun if on the Space Rig there was a Door to Mission Control, Locked of course but you have a Option to Knock on it, and I think we all would know what would happen if you spam knocking on that door. Mission control would complain. As a little addition to all the Insiders when annoying Mission Control

[bitter wasp]

Lok-1 aim assist should also help with getting blowthrough and weakpoints(im thinking bulks especially), different OCs like executioner and eraser could change it by focusing more on weakpoints/blowthrough(and reducing the other), and explosive chemical rounds could also change smart targetting to max the amount of ammo per bug at 3-4(or explosive chemical rounds could trigger every 3 shots per bug, not every 3 shots, but if a praetorien had 6 shots it would explode twice). Some of the changes are pretty significant, but at the very least I have found significant difficulty trying to shoot bugs through a tunnel and getting blowthrough or trying to use executioner on bulks.

A few random ideas:

If we were to ever get a 5th dwarf have it be female but still have the same cosmetics (beard, mustache, etc). Could have a utility tool (4) that she puts on the ground to heal team or something as a buff station. Mobility tool (3) could be some form of climbing gear to climb vertical or hang on the wall.

Also a grenade idea could be a sonic grenade (probably driller) that sticks to an enemy and pulsates/does damage. Secondary use could be if it sticks to a vein of minerals it vibrates and bursts the whole vein (would be great on crassus detonator gold)

Upgrade to molly like bosco. A vacuum mode where she grabs materials she walks over. Maybe a mode setting for follow, hold position, go to pinged location, etc. Make her into a mini Bet-c or something

Okay look, I know the mad lads who made the game said that they want to stick to a sci-fi aesthetic. But I am a complete sucker for sci-fi gear that is inspired by medieval fantasy aesthetics. I'd pay for another fashionable dlc set that is reminiscent of the scale brigade armor. Not quite the same amount of prestige, but still has that same "old cultural motifs with a new tech paintjob" tolkein-esque vibe

Title: nerfing the axe makes the game NOT FUN

Theory: Bugs determins the difficulty of the game; interaction with the surroundings determins the extent of fun. Nerfing the damage(to things) of the axe makes the playthrough more annoying, which you have to repeat throw-throw-throw-throw-throw-throw-throw-pickup-pickup-pickup-pickup-pickup-pickup-pickup just to break a electrocrystal. Another instance is the pink vines, when retracted it's impossible to deal damage to them. Drillers ought to have the power to change the environment. Overall it's unfun to tweak like this.

Suggestion: I don't care about the impact area, just rollback the damage.

Title 2: big jellyfish too hard to freeze for Bosco

Theory: Bosco needs 3 rocket shots to freeze it, crazy. It's too ammo-consuming to kill a big jellyfish, espicially you often find them in big rooms and Engi & Driller has no long range weapon while you have to deal with infinite small jellyfish. This is difficult some time.

Solution: make Bosco's cryorocket stronger, and make the big jellyfish weaker to element damage.

-half the damage turns into explosive damage

Gernade launcher overclock: sharp shaped charges
-less aoe damage
-smaller explosion size
-less ammo
-gernade can pierce 2 enemies
-gernade explodes with each pierce and at last enemy hit
-pierces unused will add 1/4 it's damage to the final explosion
(proximity upgrade doesn't make the gernade explode near enemies but still allows the gernade to bounce)

[lilac flint]

New OC for Minigun: Loaded Barrels
The weapon's manufacturer offers a new internal mechanism that allows for all three barrels to be loaded simultaneously, firing three bullets at once. With such firing sequence, barrels heat up much quicker, but bullets deal increased damage to near enemies and reduces accuracy. This mechanism adds weight to the system, increasing spinup time and reducing overheat duration.
This OC aims for a unique minigun experience (shotgun) with emphasis on short bursts of damage up close and personal.
+Fire three bullets at once that if up close (~10 meters) deals +2 damage each
+Overheat lasts 5 seconds shorter
-Firerate reduced by 20
-Accuracy reduced by 100%
-Heating rate increased by 100%

New mission types called supermissions. There would be 4 different types, each accounting for 2 normal mission types. These could be available in the same way as Deep Dives, with only one mission being available weekly. A reward would definitely be extra XP and credits (higher amount than Deep Dives would most likely be justified), maybe even a singular matrix core?

I think supermissions could also be a way to use content that's lying around in the space rig already. Maybe those big blue M.U.L.E.s could be used for example?

Ideas:

Mining Expedition + On-site Refinery supermission. Incredibly rich in morkite, both solid and liquid. Besides mining out the veins, you'd also have 2-3 giant wells of liquid morkite, with special equipment called down to pump it all out. As the bugs like chomping down on equipment's metal, your job would be to protect the extractor and keep the systems functional.

Egg Hunt + Elimination supermission. Your job is to tackle the enormous chambers of buried eggs and eliminate the dreadnought guardians. The egg quota would be in tens at least, with a single dreadnought spawning per 2-4 eggs. There'd also be an assistance from the normal critters, but those would come through mini-swarms, as normal swarms are replaced with the dreadnoughts spawning.

An Escort + Point Extraction supermission. You'd have a much larger drilldozer to assist, fighting off hordes of Hoxxes' fauna. With each chamber you drill through, there'd be aquarqs embedded into the walls, which you'd have to collect. The swarms are replaced with constant barrage of bugs, but fear not, you'd be assisted by weaponry on the dozer. At the end, an abnormally large Ommoran Heartstone would await you, throwing everything it has at you to prevent being extracted.

---

An Industrial Sabotage + Salvage Operation supermission. Your job is to deal with one of the many hearts of Rivals' operations; This wouldn't just be another caretaker to shoot down. Alongside this difficult task, you'd also have to retrieve any equipment the previous team had left behind from their attempt at tackling the problem.

[digital seal]

-Cooldown time increased greatly when fired overcharged
-Charge damage and explosion radius increase by percentage for how long you overcharge

I know i have probably already said it but it whould be so cool to see your miners union symbol as a bagde.

And titles should be displayed in my opinion.

[tiny merlin]

Can we have more assignments be abortable please?? Just jumped on with a friend who has very little spare time and i chose an assignment before realising he already had one selected, and BOTH were non-abortable which meant we couldn't progress together until one of us completed at least six extra 'wasted' missions. I understand why the initial assignment might have no abort to encourage people to experience each mission type at least once as a tutorial, but i see no reason why all the limited time holiday assignments have to be locked in? I like playing the game but i don't want to be forced to play it more because of a missclick

[worthy magnet]

idea for a rework to the smrt targeting software for the lok-1

it could keep the trait where it tries to avoid giving any one target more locks than necessary, but it could also prioritise targeting onto enemies of the same type as whatever enemy was in your crosshair when you began targeting
ie. if you were aiming at a grunt it would prioritise grunts over any other type of enemy, and if it was a praetorian, it would prioritise praetorians
this sort of helps it live up to the name of smrt, since it would understand based on what you were aiming at, as to what you wish it to do
if you're aiming at a grunt, chances are there are a lot of grunts, so it'd make sense that you'd wanna take out as many of them as possible, but if you're aiming at something like an oppressor, it's likely top priority, so your gun would seem like it's recognising that, and focus everything it's got onto that oppressor, instead of letting some stray locks go onto grunts and the like

as it currently stands the smrt targeting system upgrade is rather underwhelming, and it seems to me that this upgrade has the potential for more use cases
also it makes the smrt seem smarter, at least, i think it does

a thing i forgot to say is that this sorta makes the smrt be as effective as you let it be, since you direct it more than ever in how it should act, so it becomes a bit more skillful to use

[spare pewter]

A rework to flares, armor, pickaxes, and our various tools would be fun to see in future updates as well. As it stands right now, our Armors, pickaxes, and often even our traversal tools really don't have much customization to them, as there aren't many good options for modifications on them.

For armors, perhaps being able to select mods that increase specific resistances, give better hp or shields at the cost of penalties to other stats, and for that matter, buffing T1A's Bigger Mineral Bag by just removing the Deep Pockets per, and just buffing the armor modification.

For pickaxes, being able to mine larger portions of terrain at once, increasing damage dealt to bugs, or even simply being able to mine minerals faster or more effectively would be nice.

For traversal tools, it's a lot more complex obviously, but I'd imagine a good way to do it would be to give them more synergies with what they can do. Perhaps engi platforms could become wider or resistant to breaking. Perhaps gunner shields could form a have an option to give shield regeneration and bonus damage, at the cost of not creating a bubble. Perhaps scouts grapple hook could let him carry his momentum much farther after releasing, to throw himself around while sniping.

Leadstorm Unstable OC: Thunderstorm

+Bullets deal three times as much damage
+3 enemy penetration, and 5 meters of terrain penetration
+400% armor breaking

-spinup time doubled
-minigun does not fire until fully spun up
-ammo reduced by 60%
-fire rate reduced to 4

"It took some heavy adjustments to your weapon, but you finally found a way to fire larger caliber rounds in your Leadstorm. Just don't try to insert Hurricane missiles into it. Please?"

Thunderhead Unstable OC:
Skullbreaker Rounds

+100% direct damage
+Bullets have precision accuracy
+9 enemy penetration, and 10 meters of terrain penetration
+600% armor breaking

-100% AOE damage
-50% fire rate
-25% reload speed
-50% fire rate increase

"By using the explosive powder from the bullets to increase firing velocity, you've added a strong punch to the already dangerous Thunderhead. However, the sheer force added to every round means you'll need to be more careful with your aim."

Hurricane Unstable OC:
Proximity Detonator

+50% AOE radius
+50% AOE damage
+Missiles automatically detonate within 1.5 meters of a target.

-100% direct damage
-100% turn rate
-25% projectile speed

"R&D added some fancy modifications to your missiles, causing them to be more affective against airborne targets. However, the new proximity trigger system won't allow projectiles to hit targets directly, and it takes up space that the old guidance system used to fill."

[vocal crystal]

C'mon give steeve/sentry gun cosmetics

[oblique scroll]

More mobility. Personally I love mobility to the point where I enjoy scout 10x more than any other class. I'm an not saying that everyone should zoom around like scouts but giving some extra mobility option to each class within reason should be reasonable, especially since engineer received a mobility overclock on his grenade launcher. For an example gunner could maybe shoot some crystals (reminds me of the minigun from UT3 but it'd probably work better with his rocket launcher) just big enough that you can stand on them and that get stuck in the wall when shot, maybe he could propel himself in the air slightly with his minigun Jetpack Joyride style (should be very difficult to control so shouldnt be that busted I guess), a Special Powder option for his railgun would be a bit too crazy but maybe a toned down option would be within reason, a slight speed boost to his hook when going up sounds great. For driller giving an ability to him/his teammates to bounce on his blobs sounds cool, probably annoying as hell but who cares, and I think it shouldnt be too unreasonable to make programming wise (might be wrong here). An overclock that decreases friendly fire damage, increases sticky flame duration and increases speed (by a lot) for dwarfs running through it also sounds fun, the Special Powder treatment for charged plasma shots might be fun, a black ice/snow trail for freezer gun. For engie the Jetpack Joyride option for laser sounds reasonable, speed boost trail for plasma cutter sounds fun. Scout should get a mobility option for his other weapons because the special powder is so busted and fun it's hard to imagine playing with some other secondary. Something for crossbow should be alright like making an area of effect that allows you a low gravity jump if you initiate it while standing in the AoE (probably not super useful for scout but a great teamwork tool) or maybe a special arrow that you can teleport to, jetpack joyride treatment for peashooter sounds cool.

Ho-Ho-Ho!Good afternoon, miners! New Year is coming soon, and I would like to ask the developers..one small request.But from the beginning.I bought Deep Rock Galaxies..and....a couple of seconds...yes!

Add the ability to change the music on Our Space Rig on any seasonal theme.personally, I would..would be happy with such a gift from the developers. Merry Christmas, Miners....I'm not crying from nostalgia! It's just a speck in my eye!

[silk hamlet]

instead of your character saying something like "bosco, rocket!" when you try to order bosco to shoot a rocket while he doesn't have any, your character should say something like "bosco's rockets are recharging!" since a lot of the time during the heat of combat it's hard to tell if bosco is just being unresponsive as usual or actually doesn't have any rockets

Beard cosmetics with stuff in them. For examples beard with candycanes in it, or maybe shredder parts as a reference to the 'dont get them in your beard!' voiceline.

You know, this kind of stuff:

[lucid nova]

A minigame like the "Rite of Sigin-tarag" where the dwarfs dispute in who can break more rocks with only one swing, so there would be two anvils with rock, and then the two player should do a quick time event in every hit, and then quick time event would get quicker until someone misses

[mortal narwhal]

Persistent plasma t5 interactions: burning nightmare leaves a trail of persistent plasma, and plasma splash leaves a smaller field of p.p.
Despite the new burning nightmare and plasma splash mods, TCF is still the most popular t5 mod for the EPC, especially with persistent plasma because of its special ability to have persistent plasma anywhere.
If burning nightmare could be driller’s coilgun, that would give reason to take it, as well as that being much more intuitive
Plasma splash has it’s own problems, driller not needing an aoe secondary; as well as the cwc being better for that role. Anything that we can do for it helps

[shrewd mesa]

When pushing the button in a Point Extraction or Refining mission, As the core of the minehead/refinery reservoir is returning to the rig, The launch thrusters should blast everything in the vecinity (everything standing on the metal platforms) with Heat status, with bugs taking a large amount of heat to set them on fire, and dwarves a fraction of that, only enough to show it on the hud.

the gk2 should have its inate wp bonus brought back, but at a reduced 5% bonus, have the damage and wp mods swap places, have the armor break mod moved to tier 3, and the stun mod to tier 4. this would push it more towards a single target BEAST, while also allowing more build variety amongst all the ocs

• aise can just take damage in tier 4 and ammo in tier 2 for a decent grunt killer
• ofm can take damage in t4 and armor break in t3 for an easier to use ar
• electrifying reload can take stun in t4 and armor break in t3 for a more cc oriented set up

I would like to see a little docking station for Bosco on the drop pod that he parks into at the end of the mission. Or just have Bosco join us on the trip back to the Space Rig after a mission is done. It's such a little thing but considering we can bring Doretta back now, this seems like it should already be in the game. While on the topic of Bosco, he should be able to collect secondary objectives. ALL of them. Had too many situations where I had to spend a lot of time getting that last fossil when Bosco can just fly over there and get it if it was in the game.

Second, I don't know if it was a bug, or removed feature but could you please make it so if downed on console you can use the laser pointer to see where teammates are again? I could in season 1. I used that to see if teammates were coming to me, or to see if they were leaving me to make it to the drop pod (Leave no dwarf behind, except when dangerously low time before drop pod leaves)

new weapon framework idea
"Organic" (or something along those lines)
it'd basically make your gun look like a living mass, with fleshy bits, and tendrils, maybe replace certain things with organs, add teeth to the barrel, or any manner of freaky stuff
specifically, i'm thinking this framework would look fantastic on the lok-1, because of all those wires and the eye, but i can see it being cool on several different weapons too

lithophage infected dreadnaughts that drop plaguehearts when killed

Zhukov Overclock: Heavy Caliber
-Fire rate significantly reduced (~50%)
-Reduced ammo cost per bullet
-Significant damage increase (+4)
-Slightly longer reload
-Slightly more recoil
-Reduced base spread

"R&D were experimenting with modification, and though bigger was better. So they made your guns fire much larger bullets, with some other changes. Anyways, you should be able to feel the force behind them now."

Mushroom/Lithophage boss or something:
Ebopolyp Dreadnought ("Mold Octopus", "Slammer")
A large ball like creature which can create arms to latch onto various surfaces, either dragging, snailing, or swinging its ways towards dwarves (swinging on a ceiling). Its exterior is incredibly hard, and can only damage through weapons that can destroy terrain, or pickaxes.
Breaking through the exterior allows for damage. Upon taking damage, the dreadnought will emit spores, building up infection, or creating infected terrain within 1 meter of the damaged area. If an arm is damage enough, it will be destroyed, exploding in infection, but reducing the dreadnoughts movement for a time.
Every so often, the dreadnought will sink into the ground, regenerate all lost stone, and infect the area around them, and create a series of sprouts similar to the robotic apprentices (caretaker arms). The dreadnought will stop attacking and slowly regenerate over time while these arms are alive.
Dreadnought: If it can, it will slam into dwarves, dealing significant damage. Will throw rocks every few seconds with arms that aren't being used for movement. Can throw multiple rocks at a time, with no more than 2 per dwarf. It will also spit a ball of infection, which on contact with dwarf or terrain, infects within a 2m radius, and causing full infection of a dwarf on impact. Additionally, it can throw spikey rocks, which deal significant damage on impact, and spawn an ebonite grunt, guard, or slasher.

Arms: Dreadnought will move around these points, dragging itself in a manner to get as close as it can to a specific dwarf, kind of like an octopus. Available arms can throw, or slap (similar to pseudopods, and mentioned above).

Pseudopods(?): Slap dwarves within range (~15m), or throw a slow moving rock if out of range.

"With the recent infection, new terrors have begun to arise from Hoxxes. This is just one of them."

Infected armor and frameworks. Rockpox boils all over it

New bosco upgrades (all in the same row): 1. Bosco gains a small mineral bag (size 15-20), and when you ping a mineral, he collects it until his bag fills up, and then it falls on the ground as normal. You can ping him to make him fly over to you, and hold e to empty his bag into yours. It can be annoying having to run around getting all the little chunks. 2. Allows bosco to collect fossils, boolo caps, apoca blooms, and beer ingredients. He would give them to you in a similar way to the previous upgrade. Many people have suggested this before, so I decided to include it. 3. When bosco is holding a heavy object, you can ping the mule, drop pod, or other deposit location to have him deposit it. This could be very helpful so that you don’t need to push x and deposit everything manually.

[raw spoke]

A simple nice feature would be an option to skip the Overclock making animation. Gets a little annoying when you're trying to make a bunch and have to wait through it every time.

[native granite]

i think there should be small changes in the game, that aren't mentioned in the patch notes

for example pretorian swarms being more likely
people would then think: "weird, ive gotten these a lot lately", "wait again? no something has to be up with that."

this could make players theorise why certain things are happening, brings some more variety to hoxxes (because you never quit know what changes every so often) and build hype for maybe a new season

[near glacier]

Please, please make it so that for the Yuletide suit, when toggling the flashlight, instead of it appearing on the shoulders, the suit's lights actually toggle! I think it would be really fun!

[lost glade]

A steeve plushie? 3 variants like normal, guard, and slasher?

[copper tangle]

Some missions may read: Anomaly or high threat detected

What does this mean? One of the following are in the cave:

• Machine event (Core infuser, data cell, etc.)
• Tyrant Weed
• Bet-C
• Prospector
• Random dreadnaught spawn

Why? Well this idea started after being frustrated with getting 2 core infuser events over the course of 30 missions, but after some thinking I figured a constructive suggestion that'd help me as well would serve better than ranting. (have 11 blank cores and so far the 25% spawn rate isn't really true for me.)

The idea is similar to warnings, but more about individual events.

[midnight cove]

I should be able to pet a lootbug and it craps out a fair amount of loot but less loot then what you would get for killing it

[lost glade]

Adding on to this:
Beast master perk now allows you to tame a loot bug, and instead of following you it will seek out mineral chunks not picked up by players already and consume them, once its full it returns to you and you can pet it to make it crap them out. Also bugs wont directly target it, and it really only dies due to natural stuff such as lava geysers and or players.
Also it’s speed and health is buffed a bit.

[raw spoke]

If the next update is going to have new primary weapons, here are ideas for them I have:

Driller; The Tesla: A large tesla coil gun that when held down, shocks and damages all enemies around you. Only need to aim in the direction of enemies and it shocks them. No need to reload. Has a short range. The more enemies in the effect of the shock, it does less impact damage. If only one enemy is getting hit, the impact damage is much more.

Gunner; The Gauss Cannon: A large futuristic looking weapon that shoots high powered beams at a slow rate of fire. Has a small amount of ammo so it must be reloaded a lot. Really strong for single target damage. If the fire button is held down, it fires a powered up beam that does more damage the longer its held down and does aoe damage to enemies near the beam, but consumes more ammo.

Engineer; The Bug Vacuum 2000: Looks like the midi gun from TF2, shoots a beam that locks onto and melts bugs when held long enough. The longer it is held, the more damage it does over time. Kind of like Inferno Tower from Clash Royal. Once it melts the bugs, it leaves a goo pile of biomass on the floor for 30 seconds. Depending on the size of the bug, it gives more or less. Pressing and holding the reload button will vacuum up the goop. After vacuuming up enough goop, pressing the reload button again launches an overcharged slow moving ball that damages any enemy that is near it. It goes through thin terrain, but stops when it hits a large patch of it.

Scout; The Minehead: A gun that shoots small explosive mines that damage on impact, and can stay in place when shot on the ground. They are tiny mines and if they are on the ground too long they will explode after 15 seconds. You can hold the fire button down to launch more mines at a time that costs more ammo.

[worthy magnet]

dumb little idea i had for beast master
what if you could tame glyphid exploders, and they'd go and find the currently highest health enemy within a certain radius, and explode next to it
but taming one of these would still have a five minute cooldown before you can tame another glyphid
i'm not sure if it really makes too big of a difference on gameplay, but it sorta gives the user a choice as to whether they want to use beast master to deal with some of the smaller enemies, such as helping dispatch grunts, or if they'd rather get assistance on breaking through something like an oppressor

[woeful mica]

steeve should be able to come back from a mission with you.

[storm mortar]

"You cannot join a game when its starting."

Since the client can detect if the game is starting, perhaps have it retry the connection in 5-10 seconds so it can attempt to join? Then if it fails, return to the map screen?

[stable steppe]

need unstuck command!

[thin creek]

Doing a search for "chat sound" in the DRG discord shows that many people have never heard the chat notification sound. There's even posts about it here on the #suggestions channel. It's very disappointing that this feature is being ignored considering it would be so simple to implement and a huge QoL improvement for players.

[pure turtle]

Allow you to "tame" praetorians, oppressors, or bulk detonators, as in they just don't attack, but wander around in your general vicinity (~50m). I think it would be funny to have 4 bulk detonators surrounding some dwarves doing absolutely nothing.

[silk hamlet]

the grappling hook's crosshair should still show the distance of the surface you're pointing at even while it's recharging so you can aim for an appropriate surface without using the laser pointer which is very awkward to do
currently it replaces the distance counter with just "Recharging..." so you have to wait until it's finished recharging before you can see the distance which can cost you a precious moment in the heat of combat

[quaint musk]

Let us feed the elves to Steeve

[worthy magnet]

make a voiceline when putting a marker on an engie platform that's just "cheese!"
i think that'd be very fun

[twilit dagger]

I think that adding a new upgrade for the grappling hook so you can grapple objects like aquarqs, jadiz, doretta's head and compressed gold ( heavy objects that you can carry, essentially ) and pull them towards you so you can grab a hold of it. I think that players would get a bit more co-operative value from the upgrade and it would change Deep Rock in a small way that could help the scout become more team orientated.

[oak oasis]

I feel like the chance for cosmetic or overclock related events are too low for it to be found. Think about it, if they keep adding to the loot pool after every season theres gonna be so much items that you will never get what you want, i honestly think the chances of a cargo and lost helmet should be upped significantly. Amazing work with the cosmetics but we can't even use a third of them because it takes forever to find a cargo and get what you want. the overclock is alright

[near glacier]

if possible, I think it would be nice to give Deepcore, Shotgun, Grenade Launcher and some other weapons unique animations (compared to the standard flipping)

[snow remnant]

The other day I was mining my own business in Dense Biozone and I saw something interesting : there was one on the ground and 2 meters away from it a field of trapacactus was waiting for me to take the bait. So what about a plant using a bulb like lure to attract unsuspecting dwarves.
I saw a few users suggesting carnivorous plants using minerals as lure but I think barley bulbs are better because we can see them from a much greater distance with its faint glow.

[rocky mesa]

When you use wormhole special during the Christmas event and you get sent into space, Santa should have a chance of running you over with his sled. :)

[cyan violet]

New body skins for the game. It's been a while that we don't get anything new. And please, let one of them be purple. Purple dwarf is cool!

[rigid marsh]

This has probably been suggested before but I was kinda disappointed that there wasn't a special Christmas themed drink at the bar during Yuletide. That would be really neat.

[mortal narwhal]

Adding off of this, make the chat sounds different for the game notifications (green text) and for player messages. During a swarm, it would be useful to hear the difference between a useless “objective completed” notification and an important “leech above my body” notification

[oak matrix]

Another weird suggestion, particularly for Driller considering his penchant for insanity - give him the ability to ram HE grenades into the mouths of Praetorians and Oppressors. Significantly reduced AOE range, but the ensuing explosion will immediately strip all armor off the plated bugs (and maybe a short stun after eating a spicy meatball?).

[lost glade]

Stupid idea incoming:
A beer fridge/ cooler thing. Say there is a special beer like dark morkite that you don’t need for the next mission but you may need later. You simply buy it and put it in a beer cooler located in your room. It can hold 5 of any types of beers, like company standards and the “fun” ones.
To prevent people from joining a max player lobby and stealing all four beers when you try to put in two of the same round your dwarf will say “well that’s just greedy!”

[west cove]

Bull detonator in presents. Please add this I need it

[near glacier]

Idea for Gunner’s zipine (hopefully it wasn’t said before)
Give it the ability to place heavy objects (eggs, chunks of minerals) and send it down automatically without needing to carry it.

[near glacier]

New Biome idea

water themed where all the caves are flooded but near the roof of larger areas there's pockets of air.

Have the low atmosphere modifier (O2 gauge active) and low gravity modifier present when below water.

When on the floor of an area and also being under water you walk around at a reduced speed (maybe half of what the high snow reduces you by), if submerged holding your jump button allows a slow swimming ascent but also tapping gives a low gravity jump.

Sprinting allows for normal or maybe 1.5x walk speed whilst underwater.

Enemies can include normal glyphid types since they're kinda like crabs already, new biome specific water based enemies to replace macteras, they'll function similar as they swim around as apposed to flying.

Maybe include a new mode where you find yourself in a large chamber with some giant but friendly creature and your goal is to remove barnacles off of it and doing so causes the creature to relax and excrete a mission specific material like how loot bugs do with gold and nitra if you smack em.

[midnight ingot]

Rail gun weapon, 1 round capacity in magazine and like 10 total. it has charge up time before shooting a projectile at high speeds dealing massive damage with a high stun chance

[haughty glacier]

Please, PLEASE return the bug (or fix it, Karl knows if it was intentional initially or not) of DRAK's Shield Battery Booster+Manual Heat Dump syncing your shield recharge timer with overheat duration.
Right now SBB is just an ammo OC with dubious bonuses that you cannot take to half the planet anyway. If making the bonuses scale with shield% is not an option, please make the OC playstyle engaging again.

[midnight ingot]

a secret area of the mine of all hostile lootbugs just for the fun of it, like the secret cow level in diablo. a small area outside the mission that you need to call a mini doretta to just to find hostile loot bugs

[worthy magnet]

a new cosmetic that's just one of those disguise glasses with the nose and moustache

[noble tundra]

let me use the dlc i bought on xbox on steam

[inland palm]

Please stop mods from auto-enabling every time they update. Joining modded servers occasionally would be fun EXCEPT now whatever mods they ran on that random server will forevermore randomly activate on your account whenever they or a dependent mod get updated. The only solution to this atm is to A) avoid modded servers altogether or B) go into the game files and manually delete the mod files every so often. I always avoid modded servers now which is a shame considering how much effort went into supporting the mod community.

[storm crow]

make steeve roar when you salute towards him, similar to bosco

[near glacier]

I suggest that there are ores that we can find by digging that are not on the surface of the caves.Different tools can be added for excavation and these may be different for each class.Instead, new features can be added to the pickaxe.For example, the scout can see what the ore is in this soil when digging and when he approaches.Gunner can stun monsters when his pickaxe hits the ground etc.

[fluid pelican]

shotgun. more of em

[nocturne grove]

I had an idea that you could add or change colours on the yule tide armor? so you could switch out the colour? just an idea.

[plain carbon]

I would like to be able to pet detonators so i can have some happiness before my impending demise.

[tardy pilot]

give to ability to customise all the robot companions you have throughout the missions. For example: Upgrade Molly with weapons or faster movement speed etc, upgrade the drilldozer with self defense turrets or stronger minehead, upgrade Bet-C with increased damage or movement speed. Idea by me and @slender kernel

[plain carbon]

A sludge pump oc that makes the puddles reduce fall damage would be nice

Aggressve venting T4 on drills would be awesome, bit unoriginal but its my favourite mechanic in the game and would love to see more of it.

[lyric wind]

a mission that actually uses the mini mules to explain what mission was being done before one of those repair mini mules missions

[river oriole]

Water caves! im a HUGE sucker for underwater games like Subnautica and Barotramua. and I would love to see underwater sections in Drg. They would act like normal caves but have low oxygen and low gravity modifiers. As the dwarfs would just sink with their gear. gameplay would be the same. They could call in pumpjacks, connect pipes, drive with Doretta. A big problem is: "how is the swarm going to chase the dwarfs?". They could create bubbles around themselves like scuba spiders (Argyroneta aquatica) and there would be swimming variants. An aquatic plants could be: or lily pads (Victoria amazonica): to fight on the surface. bigger ones could have "spring loaded vines" which a dwarf can interact with and jettison him to the surface. I'm very aware that that what I'm suggesting is not a small feature and is a massive update/feature creating a lot of work for people. And maybe it's unviable to achieve technically speaking or just a bit dumb. But I'm just being hopeful and voicing my opinions on what I would like to see in the game. (thanks for reading if you made it this far)

[plain carbon]

On joining/ in the equipment menu you can swap class with triggers on controller it would be nice if, like that, you were able to swap between loadouts with bumpers.

[pale mountain]

BOSCO'S

1. Rival Tech Framework for bosco would be interesting
2. you know how dwarfs hack rival bots? why the reverse cant happen: a hacked bosco mini-event - kill it and carry the corpse to molly for extra exp
3. alternative rocket weapons? say a rocket, charged plasma bolt (somewhat similiar to epc) and mayyybe something special like grenade dropper?

[plain carbon]

Sparse nitra warning, just less nitra ore in the mission.

[somber sequoia]

suggestion to move the power attack indicator somewhere else, it gets obstructed by team inventory

[dry vortex]

Explosive minelets - Warthog unstable OC
"After research into the volatile fluids throughout the glyphid exploder's body, we've found that adding some into your shells cause the pellets to create explosive minelets whenever they impact terrain. These explode when enemies make contact, dealing damage in a very small area. However to make enough space in the shells for the liquid we had to reduce the number of pellets, and the dangerous liquids require you to be more delicate with handling them, and the amount you can keep on you has been reduced to not make you a liability"
- pellets make explosive minelets on contact with the ground
- reduced pellets per shot (like -1 or -2)
- longer reload
- reduced ammo

[near glacier]

Add mission type icons for loadouts? Would make it easier to easily distinguish them

[blazing trail]

Add more death animations to the bugs (kind of like the left 4 dead zombies). I'm not sure how you guys would exactly go about doing that but I think that would be pretty cool lol.

[solemn mist]

Make the wires of the Power Stations appear on the Terrain Scanner for Industrial Sabotage

[covert ravine]

Rework the way Sabotage:
-Removing it from deep dives and weekly assignments/promotions
-New monthly assignment with sabotage in it. Will give you rewards e.g a matrix

I thought of this because it can keep the identity of sabotage being a 'grand' type mission and it can adress some of the frustration from people who might not prefer doing this mission which is often longer than the rest and doesn't get in the way of people who want to grind overclocks without such a complex mission in their way

[native granite]

a very, very, very small chance to teleport into a cave on hoxxes and seeing Karl when drinking whormhole special

[sharp river]

A screen in the lobby showing recent mining team departures (other players starting missions) and returns (other players finishing or failing missions). The rig can feel a bit lonely when playing solo, and even in groups, it doesn't really feel like there's a lot of activity. Examples:

"[Host's Name]'s team has descended into [Mission Name] to [Objectives], wish them luck!"
"A mining team lead by [Host's Name] has returned from [Mission Name]. They have recovered [Most Impressive Mineral Yield] and [Second Most Impressive Mineral Yield]!"
"Confirmation received. Mining team lead by [Host's Name] has perished in [Mission Name]. We salute them for their contributions to Deep Rock Galactic. Rock and Stone!"

[rancid pilot]

make the chillaxe back blade into a front blade. why have the axe part if you're not gonna use it lol

[sharp river]

Other precious metals and gems occasionally replacing gold: silver, platinum, ruby, emerald, sapphire, amethyst, diamond.

More metals as possible side objectives: copper, iron, lead, brass, tin.

All could have minute differences to set them apart a bit (like value compared to the amount that spawns and hits it takes to break).

It'd admittedly be pointless gameplay-wise, but I feel it would be satisfying to have more variation in shinies to collect. Plus, immersion.

[humble swan]

Give Zipline gun a laser sight visible to other players.

[upbeat sierra]

Allow dwarves to arm wrestle at one of the abyss bar tables! You'd both go into third person, and see a progress bar, which you can influence in your favour by tapping the strafe keys (like breaking out of freeze or rockpox).

EPC oc: passive charging
Upsides:

• charge shots only cost 1 ammo
• charge shots charge automatically, even if you don’t have the EPC equipped, or you are shooting with it
• x0 heat generated while fully charged (side effect of passive charging)

Downsides:

• much longer charge time

[midnight cove]

Add molly upgrades

[junior briar]

Make engineer's two sentries have little lights and paint markings like the minisentry from TF2

[clear dew]

type of suggestion: new class
suggestion: Berserker
Reasons: Dwarves Berserkers are cool, and drunk space Dwarves Berserkers are 100 times cooler
Description: The main weapon is a melee weapon,
secondary... melee weapons, but for those who crawl far away.
A tool to catch up with those crawling far away and use melee weapons
afterword: an idea that came to my mind after an unknown dwarf saved the mission by jumping into a swarm of bugs with only pickaxe(I will immortalize you here, a non-heavenly hero)
after the afterword: "When the last cartridge is released, when there is no chance of survival, when there is not enough 1 nitro for supplies, all hope will be only on him"

[worthy magnet]

not fully fleshed out idea for a theme for some future season:
the planet of hoxxes itself is experiencing massive fissures and structural difficulties, and nobody's quite sure as to why
all they know is that if the planet continues being pulled apart at the seams, it'll have incredibly harmful effects on drg's mining operations there, so your job is to find and repair fractures before they get too large
this idea came with a thought for a new mission type, where instead of mining, you do reverse mining, finding giant fissures and filling them in with a soil gun, or something along those lines
and it could maybe introduce a new type of terrain hazard, quicksand, that has a chance to show up when one cave is located above another, and basically just drags you from the top cave into the bottom one when you step onto it
i could also see this coming with more types of cave formations, specifically crevasses, very tall and long but not much in the way of width

[untold stratus]

One thing I’ve noticed is that a lot of players will back into the drop pod seats to mimic sitting down. Have you guys ever thought about adding a button to allow players to sit down in the drop pod?

[lost glade]

Alright y’all aren’t going to like this one so please, no pipe bombs in my mailbox.
Different alcoholic beverages. Whiskey and rum to be exact.
Whiskey would be served in a shot glass kinda thing, and rum in a whole bottle, both of which break upon throwing. They would mirror the beer menu and have all the same things and give the same bonuses, but with different names plus descriptions.
So if you ordered a tunnel rat and took less fall damage you could order a whiskey variant for the same price, and same affect. It’s just cosmetic really.

[keen wasp]

pet the doretta head when it appears in the space rig after saving her

[stray island]

a way to chose all the pickaxe parts from a specific set when in the pickaxe menu instead of having to search part by part
also have it if you pick a set which you are missing parts from all the parts you have are chosen while the parts you don't stay what you already had equipped

[rustic acorn]

Give the nemesis more HP. It’s a terrifying enemy but it’s fear factor is lowered by how low it’s HP is. It makes it a little easier to defeat then it should

[icy kraken]

Voiceline referencing Starship Troopers. "C'mon you dwarves, you wanna Rock and Stone forever?!" (The original line being "C'mon you apes, you wanna live forever?!")

[thick latch]

This is a quick one:
Please, please make a nemesis spawn during the caretaker fight!!!
Nemesises are one of the best enemies in the game but they’re way too rare.
Imagine seeing 6 or more tentacles at once during the boss fight. It would be amazing!
It would also make the boss fight more action packed and make sure that players can’t just stand still during an entire phase

[viscid jungle]

Just a cosmetic idea, but still
Add trays for food into dwarwen cabins or on "Abyss bar" tables, maybe with some half-eaten/unfinished meals. Would be a good detail in my opinion

[static olive]

Undergound water area
Something like the escort but instead with submarine

[fringe turret]

make it so that you drink blackout stout without fainting but its extremely rare , maybe even give it an achievement

[stable lava]

I think some consistency with the drop pod between deep dive missions would be cool, like saving doretta will leave her head in the pod for the next segments, or finishing a salvage will make the drop pod keep its paint scratched form.

[plucky halo]

Hello Dear Developers!
I want to make a Suggestion as an art creator.

I think the creative part of the community will support me! We want eye colors for our dwarves! Many of those who love the customization of dwarves in the game dream about it.

I would also like the pitch of the voice not to be tied to the profession. How about giving players the option to choose the tone of voice for their miner regardless of profession??

My third idea is to be able to change the height or size of a dwarf a bit. Without changing the game hitbox, of course. We love taking screenshots, at least in the lobby. That would be beyond a dream.

Notice me 👉 👈 my FAVORITE

I'll duplicate here the image I posted in the art chat to show how much we love to customize. We - I mean, I'm not the only artist like that 😃

[unique inlet]

Perk idea: "Ammo Recycle"
Killing an enemy has a chance 2%/4%/6%/8%/10% to refill 1 of your ammo to your currently held weapon/tool

Kills could be able to do so with either only pickaxe attacks, or with kills in general

[tiny spire]

When you holding ping tool to check for nearby supplies sometimes this is not obvious how much ammunition is left in resupply pod, because of perspective. If only supply outline's text had lable, like this "Resupply pod (X kits left)", this would be good quality of life addition!

[dapper pier]

There should be some kind of animal on the rig to pet and play fetch with (Maybe a Steve that hitched a ride on the drop pod and now we dont have the heart to send him back) .

It's been quite a while since I made a suggestion, but here goes!
It's nothing too crazy, but a new brew to suggest named "Rum & Gun"
Potency: Strong or Epic
After consumption of Rum & Gun, it forcefully makes your dwarf sprint twice as fast, pull out your currently equipped primary and secondary weapon (which you can swap between the duration) with unlimited ammo and a non-stop rapid fire for a 10-15 second duration.** ||(Don't worry though, it doesn't cause any friendly fire)||**
Not sure what ingredients it would use, so that's up to you to decide.

If you consider it a nice addition to the collection of brews we currently got at the Abyss Bar then it.
If you think it's a rotten brew and a crime against dwarvanity then it.

[waxen shell]

About rival companies, There should be more than a single company that rival DRG. What about creating more rival companies other than the robots for example serpent aliens, rival dwarf companies ( Sponsored by the main rival of DRG(?)), elves, orks, goblins etc. there can also be random events in-game where you can see rival companies fighting each other. But to be realistic it would probably be exhausting.

• Semi-auto is perfectly accurate (clicking once, only applies if you wait 0.65s between shots)
• 33% lower base spread
  -33% slower stabilization
  -potentially wastes ammo by spending 2 rounds on overkill damage vs low health targets/swarmers
  -50% fire rate (making the rpm same as stock on average)

[near glacier]

I think it'd be cool if the lead storm if you hold square or whatever it would release a quick burst of 100 bullets much like how the cryo cannon overclock when you hold squre it released a huge snowball

Can we please be able to grab things while on a zipline instead of having to jump off to grab something?

Randomly generate names for Dreadnaughts and/or Elite enemies, possibly only visible with pointer

U could hv Krampus cosmetics added for Christmas event it would hv cool to c and fit with the game

[jovial otter]

severely lower the chance for industrial sabotages in deep dives/assignments. It's an awesome mission when it's optional,to occasionally run one and bully a caretaker, but man it gets really really annoying doing anywhere from 3-5 or even more sabotages cause they're in almost every assignment and i think there's only been 1 week where a dd/edd didn't have a sabotage since season 3 started

[sinful quiver]

Pls let us make and throw snowballs in Glacial Strata.

As an engineer it would be really cool if I could spend minerals or my left over perk points on things like sentry gun skins, and platform gun skins

[wild kettle]

Pipeline segments shouldn’t be able to go past their max length in the building process.

They should act more like fuel connectors where the hologram preview stops at its max length.

That way you aren’t precisely trying to figure out where you can place your pipe efficiently.

[midnight palm]

just spitballing here after deepdiving Karl role, hope you atleast appreciate the thought. 🙂

Tank-Class (5th Member, Karl's spot)

The actual big chungus of the team.

Increased HP and shield because strictly melee range and legit frontliner.

Cannot handle a gun but has a range of melee weapons that have CC or AoE mods (fists, hammer, actual shield held in hand)
Secondaries are abilities instead of weapons. (Throwing, Grappling, Taunt)

Has reduced mobility so has to rely on team to get him places (or maybe he can climb a wall for a short period of time? - pretty much meaning he punches holes into walls to hold onto and climb across with a stamina bar or w/e)

He'd be the kind of guy to jump headfirst into a swarm from the side of a cave and just slam the ground to CC them all.
Wouldnt do a ton of damage but he would be able to lock targets down and go toe-to-toe with an Oppressor, throw his ass away and survive laughing.

Maybe even only unlockable at a high promo threshold or something fun for the super-late-late game folks to unlock and mess around with.

[sterile dove]

Rework tyrant weed. Make it a negative mission mutation instead of a random chance thing so I at least know it's coming and can prepare.

Does the game have cross save, i have played hours on my ps4 but want to play on steam but only if it saves my data

[dire zealot]

when wearing the new platinum skin for the driller with the scale brigade chest piece, the crossed hammers on the belt and bolts are silver rather than gold. Compare this with the same skin for the engineer, and the hammers / bolts are red!

[mental seal]

Add a chance for the dwarves to say "Strike the earth!" when pressing the rock and stone key as an homage to Dwarf Fortress.

[kind zodiac]

Add a Red Grenade clown nose as a cosmetic so i can finally cosplay as Ozob
Just a regular clown nose would also work

[short shale]

Add an alternative to the flares.
Examples I thought of:

• A toggleable super bright flashlight that drains a battery when in use.
• A terrain scan pulse that leaves behind glowing dots on a large area around you.

[tight elk]

the QuadBeam
engineer secondary replacement
significantly buffs target player's damage and defense. once target player is shot, they will be buffed for 10 seconds, however the slow fire rate keeps him from just flash-buffing the whole team, and the low ammo count makes it necessary to conserve buff-charges for hellish situations.

shooting a bug with it will make it buffed as well, but also much slower as a tradeoff.

"R&D took some time to study those warden things you've been fighting, and decided to attach one of their abdomens to an array of different types of beams until finding that it is purely heat that activates this thing. however, it can only fire in short, delayed bursts, otherwise the abdomen will simply burn away. and that is NOT a smell you want on your suit, trust me."

Reskin Ommoran Shell into a giant gobstopper for Halloween.

[eternal frigate]

Add an additional accuracy mod to the Autocannon's Tier 4. This would fit within the row's sort of specialization theme and allow direct-damage builds such as Big Bertha to more effectively weakpoint snipe. This would be strong, but the opportunity cost of losing armor stripping, which is very effective on direct damage builds, or increased AoE, which can aid in killing swarming enemies that direct damage builds are otherwise unsuitable for, would make it a sidegrade or even just a slightly niche pick.

[paper geode]

it's probably been suggested a million times before but can the viewmodel for the bulldog be updated to show 6/3 bullets for six shooter/elephant rounds respectively? it bugs me more than it should that it always shows 4 bullets regardless of changes to bullet count

[hallow widget]

add an LMG like the NEGEV or the RPD and give it to the gunner or engie and give the engie or scout a nail gun and give the driller a sawblade gun and maybe give one of the classes an smg like the M3A1 or the sten gun i also have pistol ideas if these aren't interesting

Rockpox Dreadnought elimination missions for the next stage of Plaguefall

[spare pewter]

Merge the Deep Pockets perk into T1C of armor. There is legitimately no good reason to have a +5 to minerals as an upgrade.

[mortal narwhal]

Sludge pump t5 additions:
Both mods keep the current bonuses, but they also slightly amplify their respective bonuses for other sources. I think we can all agree that the slow mod is better, because the utility. This addition would balance them out because they would both be support. Also, team coordination for slowing down big enemies or damaging them while exposed would be nice too

[oak wigeon]

When Mission Control says “scanners lit up like a Christmas Tree” make some of the enemy’s have Christmas hats also some dialogue like “is that gliphyed whereing a hat?”

small range increase for burning hell to make it equivalent to aggressive venting, at the least? it feels so stubby

[rain tangle]

make it so you can type in the chat on loading screens

Make it more intuitive to switch classes during a loading screen. Pressing Q and E during a drop isn't explained anywhere, and players might do it on accident.

Seasonal Beers

[gleaming trout]

As a fairly new player, active abilities are easy to forget. The icon could be more visible, maybe make it slightly bigger and add a faint glow when ready to use. Also the icon should show the key which activates the ability.

[spare pewter]

What about an overclock that makes the Hurricane act like an oversized, low ammunition grenade launcher? Perhaps something akin to the missiles bosco fires?

[inland gulch]

add visible timers for active ability duration as well as the hidden beast master cooldown when steeve dies

[gleaming trout]

adding from my suggestion, I imagined the glow would fade out from top to bottom as to signal the ability draining

[somber orbit]

add more grenade launchers I dont want to play engineer soley for that (correct me if there are more I haven't unlocked all weapons)

[cyan creek]

If hosts crash give host to someone else like second person to join game

feels real shitty to "lose" a long mission because the host has trash wifi

[sacred meadow]

Can i just have a mission mode/shooting range for weapon tests. Like pick the enemy i want to test weapon vs and it spawns that enemy/hologram so i can see how effective it may be/not be?

[spare pewter]

Craft beers having weak, but unique bonuses to them. They stack in effects, as long as you don't get KO'd from drinking.

[obsidian roost]

Idea for improving the Assignments system
I have 30+ hours in the game now and completed quite a few assignments. Now I am trying to get my friends to also play this game but I noticed one problem with the system that reduces the fun for me by quite a lot.

Problem:
If I play with my friends and they complete their assignment together then I won't progress with my assignments! I might get lucky and have an assignment that overlaps with theirs, but that's it. I obviously want to unlock new weapons and progress with my assignments without having to play outside of the party and sometimes I want to keep playing with some nice randoms but then I have to decide between staying with them or finishing an assignment, which is often a hard choice if you're one mission away from unlocking a new gun!

Idea/solution:
A possible solution is to change the mission-specific assignments into points-based assignments. The main mission gives you [150] points that will progress your current assignment ([450] points would replace the current 3-missions assignments), some mission that overlap with the theme of the assignment (i.e. other lithophage/extraction/etc. missions) reward you with [100] points and missions that don't overlap with the theme give you [50] points instead.

That would help both premade lobbies (you don't have to play on your own to complete assignments) and random lobbies as players can just stick around if the found a good teammate and complete missions together. Right now you see a lot of players leave after one mission even if the lobby was filled with nice players!

I checked and found feedback from over a year ago to this problem:
#suggestions message

[hot minnow]

what if they added a survival type mission, where you are sent down to face incresingly difficult waves of enemies until either you die or an insanely hard boss spawns

[mint pewter]

Make the bartender shoot snowballs at those who would dare snowball it

[clever musk]

Maybe make daily deals slightly more likely to sell/buy minerals I need or have too much of? For the past few weeks every day in a row I've only been getting things I don't need (sell enor pearls, buy croppa)

"Good things come to those who wait, like dual flamethrowers, and beer!" -Random dwarves when depositing.

a training or testing area in the space rig to test out new weapons instead of having to always go on a session to test it out

Perk that allows us to drop our inventory as cargo?

[upbeat garden]

Performance Pass QoL improvement: post level 100, rather than 500 credits each, there should be a chance you can also get a random mineral at the same selling price. So it can be 500 credits, 10 magnite, 10 enor pearls, etc.

Add an arcade machine to the bar you can play against other dwarves. Beer Pong?

[waxen shell]

how about warhammer inspired cosmetics?

[hallow widget]

we should have cosmetic trails and voicelines that we get from the backpacks

[dry vortex]

What if SCC was reworked to make charge shots cost 1 ammo but had a big base damage reduction (and maybe some other stuff like affecting charge speed)?

[viscid jungle]

Came up with some friendly-fire voice lines
"Even a human wouldn't do such a thing!"
"Hey! We're dwarves, not these back-stabbing orcs!"
"Oh come on! It was just a game of dice!"

[somber sequoia]

More voicelines:
"Oh come on! Its a loot bug and we need the resources!"
"Why?!? Its just a cave angel, theres tons of them out there!"
"Fine, i'm sorry, i pressed it without thinking."
"What do you mean 'the ritual', never Heard of it."

Make dwarves hum some tunes while mining minerals

[sharp glacier]

Ballistic shield and a pistol for gunner as a secondary. M1 would shoot a pistol. M2 would shield bash with a cooldown. A strong melee atack that would apply stun on medium size bugs and crush little ones.
A pistol would have a low/medium damage output and range.
Falling from a medium hight will perform a ground slam, with a tiny (1m) aoe.
Sprinting and bashing with a shield would push back enemies too.
Might get some use with a sprint perk if a shield bash gets a bonus damage based on a speed.

[tame spire]

Add a training mode/area where you can test out all of a characters kit in an area and against dummies (management). Happy Yuletide!

[iron shoal]

Loot bug cluster - simple, it's a mission modifier that doubles the spawn of lootbugs. Kinda just mineral mania but more fun

The pointer is great for 99% of communications in this game, but it’d be nice to have way to remind Scouts to use their flares (other than chat).

[grand salmon]

Illegal mining operations

Large camps of humans “illegally” mining the resources of Hoxxes IV, first of all it would add more life to the world of DRG knowing you’re not alone, second of all it would be fun fighting an actual human that is as lethal and clever as you. Also as the dungeons of Hoxxes are incredibly dangerous, maybe the bases could be built incredibly tough, maybe on a hill where you’d need to request a big robot tank to breach the gates to go inside.

Missions:
Primary objective
Breach and destroy (2) non-DRG mining camps
Loot a large non-DRG mining camp for their resources
Secondary objective
Eliminate (5) non-DRG miners
Find (3) non-DRG mining bases and send the coordinates to mission control

Enemies:
Miner: Has a rusty shotgun, a couple grenades, and a big pickaxe.
If you get too close they will try to pierce your skull with the pickaxe, stay in cover for too long they will maybe throw a grenade near you. And of course with the shotgun they will try to shoot at you.

Guard: Has a rifle, revolver, and a sci-fi equivalent of a chainsaw. 

Found defending miners, camps etc… Guards will have more armor, so they will be tougher to crack, stay still too long they will mag dump you with the rifle, go too far they’ll try to shoot you with the revolver, get too close they’ll start chasing you for a bit with the sci-fi chainsaw until they run out of stamina and take a breather (possible moment to start shooting the guard for getting too cocky?)

Voice lines for fun:
Dwarf:
“Wow look at that pickaxe, it’s almost as tall as me!”
“I smell a musty human with bad body odor, keep your eyes peeled”
“Woah that rock almost looks like a man with a rifle pointing at us… oh that ain’t a rock”
“EAT THIS YOU TALL FREAK”
“HEY BIG LEGS TAKE THIS”
“TIMBER” (upon human elimination)

Human:

“Wassup lil man, here to mine the pebbles?”
“Too bad we don’t have a garden, you’d make a perfect gnome”
“Eat my a## if you can even reach it!”

Can we give drillers armor a goggles mod, that keeps his vision clear from all gasses, weather effects, and debris when using drill?

Can this just be an armor perk for everyone?

It's mind boggling that an intergalactic mining corporation doesn't employ working goggles as proper protection equipment.

[native granite]

we should get some vents on the space rig

and a really small chance to see a lootbug crawl through it

[broken stump]

A certain level of destruction of Deep Rock Galactic's property should come with remedial missions as punishment (or maybe even a fine of credits, printed on screen when you finish a mission after such destruction. Break holiday ornaments, pesky barrel shenanigans and messing with the ship's gravity field can get you these remedial missions with enough...force. (This is a great way to give some of us infinite missions, even if they don't pay as much. This also gives us another way to anger Management with some unique and comical dialogue. Deep Rock wins. We kind of win. Everyone's happy.)

[viscid jungle]

I got this idea some time away, but I dunno if it's gonna get much love
Bring us hints that there's actually a lootbug living on the Spacerig. Like leave a collar with a nametag that says "Looty" or a feedbowl with some nitra

Add the griddy to the lure

[surreal nexus]

Cosmetic option that makes armor look battered

Scorch marks, dings, dents, scratches and rust that really shows how hellish it is down there

[steel hound]

Have the Crassus Detonator spew out gold in chunks like a golden loot bug instead plastering the walls around it. Damn thing adds ten extra minutes to a mission because the PUGS want to mine the thing.

[dusty shale]

How about a taunt, not like the "rock'n'stone" V, but rather something targeted - like pointing with laser pointer and pressing a taunt button. Maybe it could get a small percent chance to grab the attention of dreadnought or ghosts. Something like 10%, falling quickly with distance, 'cause a high chance of success would be OP, to just taunt them from a distance, getting it off your mates.

[mortal narwhal]

The voiceline for steeve dying “Steeve fought well, and he died like a human” should be dwarf instead

[hidden wyvern]

please add a feature where when a player is calling the drop pod, a message is displayed on screen saying that the pod is being called and by who. This would help prevent anyone calling the pod prematurely. I just came back from a mission where a guy on my team called the pod while I was setting up the meteor drills. I wasn't happy about it, to say the least.

[teal apex]

i think the mini mules should be able to accept deposits like the full sized molly and drop ship!

For the lobby of the space rig: An unlockable Radio to change the lobby music. Finding more music for it could be treated as another cosmetic, like finding lost cassette tapes on Hoxxes or via Matrix Cores, for example.

i think humans won't fit as good enemies because of the way the caves work, where you need enemies that either crawl on the walls and ceilings or fly around

[stoic tusk]

Blowthrough rounds for the Voltaic SMG

Sounds kinda specific but here's my reasoning
The thing that sets the Voltaic apart is it's electric effect, which has a chance to trigger every time it hits an enemy. And some of the later upgrades give it an effect that can apply to other bugs around it. +however much penetration is that many more chances to trigger that effect, which could be very effective and interesting.
Also, it can be really nice for a non-electric Voltaic build as well. The Voltaic, like any engi weapon, kinda eats it's ammo stupidly fast, and blowthrough rounds would give a way to increase ammo efficiency without just straight up giving more max ammo.
Could be a really fun upgrade for a gun that can feel kind of bland at times, but IDK.

[lunar garden]

Dwarves should react with disgust upon consuming a leaf lovers special, rather than the generic beer drinking response.

[mental seal]

I'd love to see cosmetics themed around traditional fantasy/rustic looks, especially for weapons! Bring the dwarves back to their roots!

[mental seal]

In addition to my previous post, a blacksmith themed cosmetic DLC would be great!

[rotund briar]

What about decorations? Our Dwarves talk about lava lamps or wanting to bring back a small plant to the base, so why not have something small in the room? It can be like 3 or 4 small areas, little specific things. A wall item, like a poster or something, an item on the desk, one by the bed, and one by the shelves. Something small, even like a plush lootbug or something.

[muted glacier]

Would love a mission type called Nitra Express that is like a morkite mission but it's just more Nitra and the swarm is constant. Kill 700 or something bugs in a rain of hellfire and go home. Love the shooting, would love to do even more of it. Just something unrealistically wacky to blast Dance of the Dreadnought to.

[somber sequoia]

Add a voiceline, either after killing the glyphid menace or at the abyss bar:
"I'm a menace... to sobriety!"

[hidden wyvern]

add a chance on any mission for a drop pod to arrive broken, and you need to call for repair drone to fix it, like the hacker bot, you need to protect him from glyphids and wait till he repairs drop pod.

reduce dmg of flame thrower of miner class, it does too much dmg its not fair towards other classes. i think increase dmg of scout.

[worthy magnet]

The process of forging could stand to be made more satisfying i think, just as a QoL change
it's a dwarf with a hammer smacking away at some stuff, that's a really good launching point for a very satisfying-looking crafting experience, but as it currently stands forging just feels a bit clunky whenever the dwarves do it
imagine if you will the dwarf brings their hammer down twice, raising a great ring from the anvil every time as sparks fly, filling that forge bar like a quarter of the way up in total, and then with a mighty roar (basically just a roar they make when performing a power attack) they bring the hammer down over their head and make a great crashing sound as it smashes against the anvil, bringing the forge bar all the way up to full

[pale mountain]

T3 upgrade for a pickaxe that gives its some form of a ranged attack

option A) every power attack also sends an additional projectile/hitscan bullet that deals X damage

option B) dedicated button for dat additional projectile/hitscan bullet

the projectile/hitscan bullet has a comparably high damage (say 115% of the power attack damage + scaling to 150% the farther target is) but is limited and can not be refilled.

Suggestion: New mission type

Name: Forge Ignition

Goal: Refine “mineral name tbd”

Summary: Age old forges of the past abandoned by past management have been uncovered by the current administration. It is told these forges were used to refine an extremely rare and sought-after mineral found deep within the caves of Hoxxes IV. Because of the risky and unstable refining process has on this mineral, they must be processed planet-side to avoid unintended disaster.

Part 1/Approach the forge: interact to scan for ignition cores(like missing legs) required to fire up the forge later on.

Part 1/ Retrieve 3 ignition cores(more than 3 on map, more on that later): Ignition cores are large brightly blue-lit objects that were “relocated” my local fauna. They must be retrieved and attached into the forge(like batteries on lost cargo).

Part 2/Now the forge’s basic controls are online, the team can retrieve the ancient locator(pickup like a litho-foamer) used to scan for the mysterious ore. This will be found in the form of an abandoned mine cart on a few pieces of rail track. The mineral is too heavy to carry and requires building a connecting rail to the forge for processing.(like pipe building only it’s a rail for a minecart). Once built it must be pushed manually(interact) while a constant wave is triggered until it reaches its destination.

Part 3/ Once mine cart with mysterious ore enters the forge it can then be activated/ignited, drawing attention of enemies(time based progression to complete refining process). Occasionally the ignition cores will lose their light(die out), pausing progress, and auto eject requiring a new one to be attached for progress to continue.

Part 4/ Once complete, doors open, mysterious ore rolls out, very shiny. Deposited on molly like the heartstone, extract.

Beserker Perk Buff Suggestion:
Berserker is handy if you're prone to running out of ammo, but falls flat compared to the utility of dash, Steeve, or hover boots.

To remedy this, what if players received 20HP (30 with Vampire) per bug they smash during their Berserk rampage?

1. This would allow Berserker to function as a solid panic option like dash, only for players who prefer aggressive tactics.

2. This would give us Iron Will meta slaves an alternative to the Vampire perk, allowing for more variety in one's perk choices.

3. This would finally let me Rip and Tear without immediately getting chewed to death.

[plush garnet]

Option to set the "bloom" effect on the light, in the graphic settings, allowing you to disable/enable or control the intensity

Add cross-platform between PS and Xbox🙏

[dense cipher]

Active Perk Suggestion:
"Case-Melter" Firing Mode:
Press the tab key while firing to temporarily double the fire/charge rate of your weapon for 5 seconds. During this period all ammunition used is pulled directly from your reserves, so you aren't interrupted by reloads. If used on a semiautomatic weapon, it will temporarily become automatic. Takes 180 seconds to recharge.

The intention is for this to function as a "panic button" alternative to dash, but for those who prefer fight over flight. It would be a very fun addition to the game, although it'd probably also be a nightmare to code.

[versed glade]

Add a unique voiceline for pinging Bloopy Fruits

Please allow us to rejoin industrial sabotage if we were disconnected from the match which we were already in (occurs when the caretaker fight has started, or maybe after all hacking stations are destroyed). Its not fun losing all that progress just because of issues we cant always control (ex. Host internet connection, game crashes, etc.)
I remember this used to be an issue with Refinery (during liquid refining) missions and Salvage Operation (all mules built), which has since been fixed (at least I believe it has been).
||This may also be a deep dive thing, though Ive been disconnected on the third stage before and not had issues rejoining until today.||

[calm harness]

Environmental Suggestion:

Allow players a way to get rid of Sticky Goo off the ground. Some missions, especially the harder ranked ones with more stars, are covered in this and it can really be obnoxious to deal with. Unlike most other obstacles there is currently no way to remove this impediment.

My suggestion is to allow weapons like the Flamethrower to burn it away or the Cryothrower/Cryo Grenades to be able to freeze it and then mine it/drill it/blow it up to break it and destroy it. Similar to how Black Ice can be destroyed it would be great if options were added to allow the Sticky Goo to be destroyed. In general I think Flame based weapons should have the ability to burn it away while Cryo based weapons should have the ability to freeze it allowing players to then break the frozen goo.

[barren island]

I don’t have many friends who play this game so my first many missions in this game were done completely solo, and over the hours I’ve spent underground, I’ve become quite attached to my little flying tin can. He’s saved my skin countless times, rezzed me when I fell and helped me mine that last little bit of Mork I can’t quite reach. He may be metal and oil instead of flesh and blood, but he is my brother all the same.

I do not care if it costs me extra to give him a tiny flagon of oil to sip, I want to drink with my partner after another successful mission. Bosco deserves a pint for his hard work, right?

[snow storm]

Unpopular Opinion: I think Haunted Cave should have the other 5 disruptive enemies too, giving them some sort of digging attack as well (other than Menaces ofc). Each mission would randomly choose between one of the 6.

[jolly kernel]

so i started a new account on steam moving over from pc right? and i realized how bad this game is to new players. like...really really bad and constantly running out of ammo way too often even with all if not most shots hitting my mark. sadly the game only gets fun when you hit its peak with proper gear as the progression is not so enjoyable

[trail stream]

Addendum to previous post: Funny thought, what if the drink for Bosco was called “Oafy Oil”

“Barkeep, I’ll take a round of Oily Oaf’s, and a pint of Oafy Oil for wee Bosco!”

[lapis cliff]

water

[wild storm]

A new tree of perks that function as useful gadgets a la Rainbow 6 Siege. Motion trackers, remote cameras, LIDAR gun, etc. Stuff that any class could use and would augment the team's ability to map out the cave and keep track of enemies.

[narrow topaz]

Is DRG split screen on console, if not it should be I would absolutely buy it again just for when friends come over as an amazing party game.

[supple acorn]

Allow the Sludge Pump to absorb sticky goo from Mactera / environment for ammo

[lapis cliff]

water (in bottle)

[ripe pendant]

Add new daily beers pls

Possible effects like:
x% faster movement
x% more jump height

or, some ideas taken from a video by sniss on youtube
(video is called "the drinks of deep rock galactic", go watch it)**

"Scout-eye Stout"

• anything of value glows in the dark (nitra, gold, fossils, boolo caps, lost helmets, etc.)

"Leaping Lager"

• double jump

"Lucky Lager"

• higher chance of machine events, lost helmets, cargo crate, etc.

and, some of my more fleshed-out ideas

"Malt Mellifluous" (or mellifluous malt)

• All healing effects are doubled, whether it be from revives, red sugar, perks, etc.

"Menace Mead"

• speed increase that improves the lower your health is (meant to reflect how menaces run away after being shot at)

Seriously, go watch that video by sniss

[silk hamlet]

there should be beers with negative effects

[kindred kettle]

A rubber orc mask as an unlockable cosmetic for next year's Halloween event. Let dwarves channel their inner WAAAGH.

[zinc escarp]

Could there be an option to disable the intro video in the settings instead of modifying the UE-related game files? I think it'd be nice so that we could verify the integrity of game files and stuff w/o having to re-implement that change

[untold stratus]

Players should receive a bonus for escaping with Doretta in tow.

[vale quartz]

How about a double jump as a perk

[sullen kettle]

What about female miners for the gurls who play the game?

[lunar garden]

Pickaxe Throw, an alternative to Power Attack for the pickaxe. When activated, your dwarf will, as the name suggests, toss the pickaxe in an arc similar to a throwing axe, albeit straighter and farther reaching to allow longer range tosses. The damage of the thrown pickaxe will increase based on distance, and the cooldown will also be reduced by landing long range throws (akin to the Flying Guilotine from TF2). To balance it, you will be unable do any melee attacks while it is on cooldown, its AOE will be halved compared to a Power Attack, and it will do the same damage as a regular pickaxe swing in close quarters.

[boreal ingot]

let me use lithovac on the goo in fungus bogs

[neat field]

A backpack cosmetic that serves no purpose other than to hold lootbugs on your back. Maybe some paints for it too, and then just another slot on your character customization.

[oak matrix]

Not sure if I turned some graphic thingamagig off somewhere that disables it, or it wasn't ingame to begin with, but something something aftermath of a blast where soot/plasma/cryo residue of an explosive would be left behind on surfaces after detonation, a soft indicator of how far the blast's effects reached from the point of explosion?

[hallow widget]

i wanna decorate my room with gold and posters and minigames

[orchid flint]

My close friends and I have never played Deep Rock Galactic, but would like to enjoy it together. Problem is we are all on different devices (PC , Xbox and Playstation respectively).
Is there any plan at all to ever support full crossplay?
(Currently we are mostly playing Back 4 Blood, Aliens Fireteam, Modern Warfare 2 and Fall Guys) Crossplay truly is the best feature ever :)

[soft hatch]

A new rare enemy type, like bet-c, a dwarf with a randomized class, weaponry, upgrades, ect, who is an enemy thanks to parasitic mushrooms/aliens. Defeating them allows you to deposit the “parasite” in Molly for R&D to research, and give you a nice bonus

[soft hatch]

Another idea:
An “endless” mode in a combat training simulation. Kill waves of enemies for points and nitra, complete randomized tasks every few waves, and you leave by failing and then get xp based on how well you did, simulating combat and mission training, but not granting materials or money. And between waves you can change around your loadout to test your weapons and perks in combat, without having to start a mission for the sole purpose of finding out what weapon pairs best with your brand new overclock.

[pale mountain]

Cosmetic Idea: "Magma Core Tenant" (not sure with the name) - Suit, basically designed for high temperatures. Looks like firefighters suit but also comes with armour plates, hooks etc. that dwarfs need deep down at magma core.

also not sure if it has been suggested but - is it possible to implement a Shoulder Pad with union symbol on it? (i mean and , or at least ). methinks that would be cool

[near glacier]

Currently, during Salvage Operation's triangulation and refuelling stage, pressing C may sometimes play the "let's race Molly" and similar responses, which I assume is an oversight.

Because of that, I think it could be nice if both of these stages got not also shared, but exclusive voice lines such as

"Time to get home. Stay in place so that Mission Control can triandu-, trianjur-, ugh, find our location!"

"You heard the guy, stay in the damn bubble!"

"Let's refuel this drop pod!"

and such

[paper geode]

disable collision on these lights here (and the bat decorations during halloween) so we can jump downstairs instead of having to take the long way during these seasons

[boreal rune]

When the connection is lost, whether you're a host or a player, make the game switch to single player instead of failing the mission.

[fair sorrel]

I think at some point or another the hardest missions of the game are going to become very familiar with the playerbase, maybe in future we can get triple warnings?

[hearty finch]

passive Perk: Cleaner burn - increases flare light duration

[rocky sun]

Lootbugs that eat compressed gold become golden lootbugs

[pale mountain]

MORE ALCOHOL!!!

it would be epic to see different types of booze other than beer types

[versed glade]

While under the effects of Malt Rockbearer you grow too tall to interact with the juke box or order another beer. Let us interact with them!

[pseudo lava]

sometimes when you kill bugs they drop bug parts, legs, armor, organs, collected for some sort of bonus, secondary objective or to get cosmetic after a certain amount.

[oblique gate]

Add support for Mumble's positional audio API?

[amber scarab]

Roughneck should be part of deluxe edition, so deluxe includes everything not season related.

[rancid spear]

This is a suggestion for next year's Yuletide event, though you probably already have this in mind.

1:A Santa suit armor for the Dwarves,

2:Candy Cane Pickaxe Paintjob

3:Gift Wrap Weapon Paintjob

And your last Oktoberfest event really got my mind going on the idea of seasonal beers.. I've been going over ideas of other Holiday event themed special brews for The Abyss Bar, the most recent of which I might actually go ahead and try and make into a Real World beer recipe..

-Plum Pudding Porter
a drinkable form of Plum Pudding, winter fruit and spices in a dark brew for hearth warming in the cold

[rancid spear]

Oh right, there was one more idea I had in mind, which I thought would be a fun unlockable pickaxe set though can always try making it as a mod myself first with some help to see how it goes over..

-Diamond in the Rough pickaxe set, a gilded gemstone themed set of pickaxe parts and skin, mostly diamond, industrial grade of course so it's cloudy and opaque, large cut diamond blades, head and pommel all held together in gilded steel and of course colorable with any pickaxe skin, loosely inspired by a certain other game but with more flair here of course.

[vagrant fog]

My idea for an Update would be a new class…
Support/Medical
Maybe a heal gun or heal zones for dwarfs could also be a res drone that he would have to fly manually so that other dwarfs had to protect him for some time.

Another idea are flare upgrades : more flares, more duration etc…
Maybe the option to turn on numbers that show the damage from each attack xD

[north surge]

Make Molly not move during the Caretaker fight unless called so that she stops trying to kill me. It's not fun to get shoved onto the Caretaker as Driller or to have your escape tunnel blocked.

[near glacier]

When joining lobbies, maybe next to the players name have it show depending on what they are apart of?

[onyx crown]

make droppod seats more in a horse shoe layout so that you can gaze on other dwarfs while descending into darkness.

[radiant ridge]

Ideas:
Queen Lootbug: Is three times the size of a regular lootbug and drops 3.25 times the regular loot. Has 20% chance to spawn. 3x the HP as well. Can spawn as a Platinum Variant that gives 3.25x the gold of a regular golden lootbug. This variant only has a 5% chance to spawn in a mission.

Ebonite/Mineralized/Crystaline Lootbug: Slightly larger than the golden lootbug, and is immune to gunfire. Must be killed with Pickaxes. 10% chance to spawn in any mission. Drops the local major and minor minerals instead of gold/nitra. In a 3:2 ratio, and drops Roughly 50%(Or less) as much as a Huli Hoarder.

Alchemical Detonator:

The larger, slower, more deadly cousin to the crassus Detonator .

• Has a much smaller range AoE attack that deal as much or a little more damage.

• Has similar deadly fireballs to the Glyphid Dreadnaught or Arbalests

• 7500 base HP Scaled to 10k at Haz 5

• Instead of pustules to pop, they are replaced with Mineral deposits based on the zone it's in. So for example Jadiz and Enor Perals. These cannot be shot and must be mined. They deal bonus damage similar to weakspots. This can be gunned down from long range but you lose the bonus minerals on its back.

• It's AoE attack is a smaller radius, and slower, giving dwarves a chance to get in, smack the weak spots and get out before getting hit or getting smacked hard

• Upon death it explodes in the same radius as the other Dets, but instead of a solid layer of gold/rock it leaves behind a crater with various veins of the regions minerals, in a 3:2 ratio of primary vs secondary. If you get a good sphere shape you get more mineral veins to mine, similar to a crassus det.

• these Veins would have to spider and burrow a length into the ground instead of just a surface coating, while surrounded by useless slag.

[latent hazel]

the ornaments should have various colors of breaking particles so they dont all smash into red particles
edit: they sure as hell dont in the ones in the caves, those ones all have red particles

[idle coral]

I think drg should add a survival mode we’re your stuck under ground you have to get nitra for supples then the bugs come and rinse and repeat slowly getting harder and harder

[latent hazel]

ore that doretta drives through should always drop as chunks instead of it only happening if it cuts some off from connection to the ground

[versed glade]

Mission Control voicelines for Dwarves spam pinging a mushroom:
"What are you a plumber? We don't have all day!"
"You lot have the attention span of a fester flea, please stay on task."

[wraith frost]

add a gear mod to the platform gun that lets you rotate the platforms vertically

[visual rune]

FEMALE DRWARF

[latent hazel]

the cryo cannon should be able to accumulate ice in glacial strata like how the crspr flamethrower melts it

and one last one for rn: driller's drills and doretta's drill make brown particle effects even if they're mining through ice in glacial strata, and it should be blue or white instead

[native granite]

when you drop into a mission you always hear one of a few pre recorded voicelines, no matter what classes are playing

i think there should always be one that reflects what dwarfes are in the team

[bleak slate]

I feel like it would be cool for a vs game mode where you and someone else are put into the same mission with the same map generation and whoever can complete that mission first wins and then you could put rewards at the end like a usual mission and maybe a seperate leveling system or somthing for that

I also think that it would be a cool idea for you to finish the area that's under construction but then make a new area like that so then you don't have to get rid of the voice lines and you could add more to the space rig like adding some stuff to the memorial hall to spice it up a little it would also be groovy if you added more alcohol to the bar

[trail stream]

Arm wrestling in the bar.

[ripe pendant]

flare upgrades.
i've always thought it was strange that engi and driller get weak flares and that gunner and scout get stronger ones, so why not make them all their own upgrade path?

upgrades for duration, throw distance, brightness, etc.

maybe even different flare types like miniature flare gun flares that don't last as long but have a much higher velocity when throwing

[flat dock]

I would love a rejoin system (or at least an option) in case you get disconnected in the middle of a game. That way you won't have to search all the servers again to join the same group

[cloud latch]

Idea: PLEASE, PLEASE make the Caretaker able to be ifg'd.

[wild kettle]

Add a T3 mod (currently has more ammo or more damage) to the Stubby that allows it to electrocute bigger enemies that it normally can’t — like dreadnoughts and oppressors
(Or make it base 👀)

[full crypt]

A copy paste function for cosmetics (armor and pickaxe)

[dry vortex]

loot bug swarm

[hidden wren]

Engineer should have a gun with flechettes. It seems thematically appropriate.

[formal bobcat]

A voice line for grabbing/ordering a glyphid slammer. "Remember Karl and Pass the Glyphid Slammer!". Its like "Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition". But it actually fits in with DRG. I have a recorded audio file if interested.

(I hope this is the right place to post this)

[hot bay]

add a repurchasable item in the game page so we can continue to support ghostship games. I don't know how the community will react to this but I just wanna give more money to the devs because 1 they aint greedy at all 2 i can only buy the cosmetics that they pump out to support them. I wan the ability to just keep supporting them without getting anything but satisfaction and a great game in return

[visual rune]

healer

[balmy ermine]

Please make it so snowball OC doesnt activate when you pipe surf. I dont like wasting 60 ammo to ride a pipe just because i forgot to switch to my secondary or my drills.

[latent hazel]

rocky mountain should apply to meteor hot rock, the stone chunks in glacial strata, and any other things similar to it

[grave moth]

A hat for yuletide next year that looks like this

[cloud dew]

implement hazard 6 to have officially more challenge ✊😔 and not with buggy mods

[fringe plinth]

Make Karl the leader of rival company 🧎‍♂️

[rich pebble]

Glyphid Praetorians aren't super threatening (not counting the janky acid spray), to remedy this I propose an idea that could help spice up combat encounters.

When a Praetorian reaches around 60% health and has sustained moderate damage to it's armor, it has a chance to go berserk. When a Praetorian goes berserk it will let out a loud roar and will proceed to stampede towards the sound of gunfire, blindly thrashing at anything that gets in it's way.

Of course, this blind rage has the potential to cause your enemies to sustain substantial casualties from collateral damage, so there's a little bit of a silver lining there.

[deep scarab]

a very low chance voice line when pinging hollomite where the dwarf says "still waiting for the sequel", in reference to HollowKnight

[novel creek]

Possible to see previous mission stats, like a mission history/recap screen/terminal. Even if we could just view the end screen from past multiplayer/solo missions again. At a later stage to have more detailed stats would be really cool. Like kills per player over time. Damage dealt, damage received. Quantities of various minerals mined, objectives contribution, etc.

[vivid grotto]

Dwarves should have other lines for the Kursite infected. They talk about how stinky it is but since it doesn't produce any gaseous fumes it's a bit silly to hear

[near glacier]

bring back stacking 👉 👈

[hot abyss]

I think they should have calls from different languages ​​so that we can talk with people from our country, I for example am Brazilian and I don't know how to speak English, this message was written in google translator

[tawny plume]

I don't know how often this has been suggested, but as someone with multiple monitors, it would be really nice to have a way to set a primary display for the game to launch on.

[fierce mica]

When standing inside the memorial hall, the dwarves' salutes should be more serious, quiet and somber. It certainly ruins the mood to salute a statue dedicated to your fallen comrades, only for your dwarf to blurt out "ROCK (URP) AND (URP) STONE!"

[pale wave]

I want to be able to tell which class each of the downed dwarfs are, because it is really hard to know which one of your teammates you're reviving, so maybe change the downed dwarf icons according to the classes color schemes(i'm not talking about the ones in the left bottom corner, i'm talking about the ones that help you to find the teammates in the caves), because when im trying to pull of a clutch i would really prefer to revive gunner instead of scout, and i cant tell them apart without checking the nicknames which is kind of a hard thing to do in a heat of a battle.

[plucky zephyr]

Berserker buff idea:
A new passive effect.
While berserker active effect is very powerful, I wouldn't put it in the same category as Iron Will, where it doesn't need a passive.
So, I suggest the following:

Whenever you kill a medium or larger enemy with a pickaxe melee attack, gain a movement speed boost. (Enough to counter the normal reduction you would have)

The kill part should be emphasized, since just hitting an enemy should penalize you like normal, by slowing you down.
However, if you have enough situational awareness to notice low health enemies, you would be rewarded by saving ammo.

The medium enemies clause is so that your not completely able to invalidate shockers and swarmers just by this passive alone.

If you manage to properly judge the health of a larger target and get a pickaxe kill on them, I think you should be rewarded with a longer lasting speed boost.

Additional notes and ideas: I considered adding these buffs to the power attack as well-however, the power attack doesn't slow you, and is considerably easier to get a kill with. So it would only apply to the normal melee attack, and not the power attack, drills, or axes. (Though drills would be fun).

The goal of this buff is to provide a engaging and economical playstyle by encouraging players to use the melee attack at the right moment.

[tulip hatch]

Medieval dwarven armor as a cosmetic DLC would be cool.

[rose pasture]

I had a fun creation for Christmas. It's the breakfast stew. This idea would most likely fit for a "beer" along with the idea of a abyss plated pyramid restaurant. A breakfast stew consisting of white country gravy with bits of cooked bacon, sausage, soft potatoes, eggs with melted cheese. For the "beer" version, it would have like 3 shots of whiskey. Description would be like, "A breakfast on the go, with some whiskey to make the job more fun. Not only that, it is the first, more permanent, choice meal in a mug to be served during the entire operation of Hoxxes IV. It is the drink that you chew as you drink. Enjoy." It would be a corporate-issue beer with regular potency, costing a hefty 225 credits per round.

[sterile dove]

just lost a kursite event because the event didnt spwan enough of the enemies. Please stop this from happening

[jovial charm]

A steel flak helmet would be a good headwear choice for those that like bombs and explosives a little too much.

[hallow widget]

give scout a pistol (i hate having to mod to use a pistol for the scout) and give the gunner an LMG (not like his minigun or his heavy cannon but something like a bigger deepcore gk2 or a bigger drak-25 i just want to use an lmg that is held like an ar) also armor and headgear that matches the weapons of the dwarves (i like having a theme for my dwarves) and for my final idea other mining tools or at least different melee (i just think that the idea of using pickaxes as our soul melee is a bit less that desirable for some players me included and the thought of using a shovel or a drill to kill bugs and mine is really fun and i don't mean the reapers claw shovel i mean an actual full on shovel would be cool as hell to use and so would a drill) the different melee would be pulled up via pressing a button that would take out your knife/fist/sword/axe/blackjack/whatever-you-use-at-the-time and it would deal the same damage as your pickaxe but would go faster and would have the power attack from the pick and the pick would get power attack replaced with something to make mining take one or two less hits from the pick

[jagged smelt]

Let us use the error cubes to buy specific overclocks that we want so we don't have to entirely rely on RNG.

[zealous cradle]

Any chance for flair upgrades? Faster charge time, brighter flairs, further throwing distance, max number of flairs? They always joke "Flairs could use an upgrade", would be funny if we could actually upgrade them

[woven python]

add the option ctrl+c to command molly to move where its commanded

[sharp hearth]

Suggestion: if you have friendly Peark on level max you can pick up downed dwarfs but if you pick up a dwarf you cant: run shoot mine deposit or use any tools

[raw spoke]

A few new perk Idea's. Not gonna put in numbers cause I'm not very good at that.

Passive: Mechanic; Build and repair everything (except sentries) faster and gives Rival Patrol Bots a higher chance to not die and be hackable.

Passive: Scared of the Dark; Flares recharge a bit faster and are a bit brighter and last a little longer.

Passive: Ammo Hungry; You get an extra small amount of ammo from resupplies (this one is to incourage people to use more of their ammo before resupplying.)

[latent hazel]

plastkrete platforms should be able to connect to on-site refinery and point extraction's platforms, in the case of it spawning somewhere where you cant reach it

[hollow grail]

i wanna see a costume like the "Big Daddy" from Bioshock. it would be a great set for the DRILLER

[kindred olive]

perhaps being able to pull teammates and heaver objects towards you? carrying heavy objects vertically is hell, and being able to pull teammates would give the scout at least some ability to help the team, as in being able to pull people up walls and stuff

[wicked drum]

we got movement overclocks for scout and engi. now time for gunner and driller.

Armskore coilgun
clean overclock: wire overcharger

• shoot along your zipline's wire to give it a temporary speed boost

balanced overclock: adrenaline trail

• running across the trail is significantly faster
• larger trail radius

• lower damage

Subtata pistol:
unstable overclock: wormhole generator

• shooting on a surface creates a waypoint that teleports you there on reload
• can reload even when magazine is full

• abysmally small ammo pool and magazine capacity

[hollow grail]

Also what about a set of missions where we get to experience the "FINAL MOMENTS of KARL"it would be so epic to be a part of that history!!!!

[vestal yew]

Could we have some armor skins that look similar to other classes? Ex. giving gunner a red armor skin or something along those lines

[jovial charm]

Yet another head cosmetic I propose is the Energy Dome worn by the band Devo "Mine it good!"

[hollow grail]

or how about a hazmat type suit and crowbar skin for the pick so the Halflife guys get some love as well? Gordan Freeman as a Dwarf would look funny as hell.

[vale quartz]

Can scouts flares please not get destroyed when making contact with the drop pod especially on salvage missions

[ionic charm]

It would be cool if when the dwarves make random comments during a mission, if there was another dwarf in the mission, they had some dialogue/banter that reacted to what the other commented.
Such as the one comment where a dwarf was thinking whether it was really such a good way to make a living mining rock and stone.

[untold stratus]

It would be nice if they added more loadout icons. Medic icon for a Bosco built for max revives, biohazard icon for a driller equipped with the corrosive sludge pump, spread icon for an engineer equipped with the shotgun, etc.

[flat dock]

April Fools Idea:
If you stack enough of the "Reduce Friendly Fire" Perk, you can heal teammates by shooting them

[visual rune]

A character with a sword/axe… melee combat >

[fading kiln]

Warning: Limited Revives
During the game, the maximum revives the group has available will be displayed at the side of the screen. After all revives are used up it doesn't work anymore

"The flight was rougher than usual and some of the heal-juice bottles broke during the turbulence. Revives are limited"

• should be adjusted dynamically based on number of players
• for solo Bosco players:??

Downside: if all revives are used up early or in middle the perma dead people have nothing to do for rest of mission...

[bronze ravine]

The scorpion mask should be colorable with armor colors

[little mica]

I know this is hard to add, but how about adding "variants" to weapon skins? To be able to remove redundant elements. For example, this rifle skin would be just great if not for these fucking sticks!

[ionic charm]

An achievement for putting the barrels in the drop pod seats, and then insuring no dwarves are inside after the drop pod has successfully launched would be cool and funny.

[pearl jetty]

to make sabotage less awful, i think a good idea would be to make the power stations optional, basically completing them will weaken the caretaker
starting the fight with no stations hacked: caretaker is super strong, needs a really coordinated team or hazard 2 to be possible
hacking 1 station: caretaker is somewhat stronger than as-is
hacking both stations: caretaker is a bit weaker than currently
this would make the fun part of the mission (the boss) be the main focus. it also pleases experienced players because they can challenge themselves and get the mission done fast
btw what i mean by a stronger caretaker is just everything; spawns more minions, more health, eye switches around more often stuff like that, maybe even more attacks

[hollow compass]

More pickaxe mods. Some suggestions:
-Damage (not the power attack, just normal damage)
-Mining speed (As in reducing hits required to break terrain and maybe faster attack rate)
-Excavation (Making larger holes with pickaxe)
-Mineral Scrounger (Grants larger quantities from mineral veins, letting get more from less)

[flat dock]

I think customising your room in the space station would be really fun

[hollow compass]

Maybe the pickaxe skin customization could be made into something more than just cosmetic if they were to add this?

Belt-Fed Brew
+Grants double reserve ammo (and affects resupplying accordingly)
OR
+Every kill instantly reloads the gun

[true nebula]

How about subtle class buffs?

• Scout's backpack capacity is increased by 5-10
• Gunner Hp/Shield is slightly bigger
• Driller can mine faster with his pickaxe
• Engineer builds everything a little bit faster

[pearl jetty]

if more nades are ever added i think a cool one for the gunner would be the Tornadeo, it summons a sizable tornado where it is thrown that attracts bugs to its center and deals almost enough damage to kill a grunt over a ~5 second duration, the carried amount would be 6

[flat dock]

A nice QOL change could be making the use button (e on computer) toggleable

[dry vortex]

specific voice lines for telling bosco to mine dirt and omeron beamers instead of the mineral voice lines
some like "mine it" still work but others mention minerals specifically which doesn't make sense
Dirt line ideas:

• "clear the path bosco!"
• "time to get dirty bosco!"
• "tunnel here please!"
  Beamer line ideas:
• "Bosco! The beamer!"
• "Break that beamer!"
• "That beamer is hurting doretta bosco!"
  if you have ides for additional voice lines for this, chuck them into #suggestion-discussion. I'd love to see them

[versed rune]

Prevent meteors from dropping in after you have started any countdowns "of no return" (point extraction launch or mule button for example). It sucks to have 3 minutes to extract and suddenly the meteor decides to fall down after the whole length of the mission, and you havent got time to do it. Id prefer they cannot spawn at all in these cases

[serene current]

Would love to see more body features as cosmetics, so how about my "Ork-ite" beard

[wispy pier]

Oppressors Impenetrable armor is breakable but more durable than a predtorians

[hidden compass]

an endless deep dive in which you are given exp and credits according to the number of stages passed

One of the loading screen cinematics should show a drop pod launching from the space rig, not unlike the tutorial cinematic

[viscid jungle]

Let us crush small glypids and stun mediums by throwing heavy stuff at them, like compressed gold, aquarqs, jadiz, etc.

[true nebula]

Cave so big it doesn't have a celling and you can see the sun

[latent wind]

give steve a dog house in the station and also give him some customisation option. Maybe some little hats you can put on him.

[hollow compass]

And “Endless Swarm” mode where you have infinite ammo and it’s a mini-game to see how long you last. Surviving longer grants higher XP, and each wave recharges abilities like Iron Will, See you in Hell, Field Medic, etc.

[hollow grail]

i imagine the Halflife hazmat suit to look a bit like these
.

or maybe a suit like the one the Satisfactory guy wears.

[viscid jungle]

April fools idea: make some fun-beer effects last during the whole mission. Like you're small or big or burning throughout the entire mission

[oak wigeon]

Add more burrowing things like the one worm dude in sandblasted corridors

[hollow grail]

how about a Tommygun for the GUNNER.

something like this but with a bigger and wider bullet barrel under it. like a coffee can or iced tea shaped drum.

[viscid jungle]

Turret variant, that fires small grenades
Pros: good area and single target damage, armour destruction
Cons: longer reload, shortage of ammo, lower fire rate

[gloomy acorn]

An armor and pickaxe skin that "upgrades" with your promotions, making it more flashy as you rise in rank.

[trim yew]

Could we remove any of the voice lines? I have a friend who had an issue with "die like your mother did", since their mother recently... well, died. I would like the option to turn down the chatter in general, but if there's a way to do that without figuring out how to make a mod that'd be great.

[wispy pier]

Alternative salvage missions that Don't involve repairing mules and drop pods, such as recovering lost cargo or gear, could be even random events like a satellite thats on a collision course with hoxxes, where you must obtain its data core but the distress becon is too noisy which attracts all the bugs, and the rival bots also detect the signal and are determined to steal your data core

[frosty rover]

-when you max out the game, you can go to a special location with the drop pod, like an abyss bar...just bigger, maybe some new mission types there

[viscid jungle]

[hollow mortar]

I'm a gunner main who's played a lot with the lead storm, and I'm kind of bummed out there's no overclock that gives higher spindown time. currently the mod that affects that stat seems nearly unnoticeable, and I think it'd be interesting to see what a maxed spindown time would look like, similar to the way you can practically eliminate spinup time using little more oomph/spinup mod.

My current (too specific) idea for the overclock would be "heavy barrel" or "anti-aircraft barrel" with sluggish spinup and slower cooling rate for increased accuracy and slower spindown. slower cooling implies that the barrels have more thickness and therefore take longer for the heat to completely dissipate. Heating up faster does not make sense and is not a downside on most lead storm hot bullets/aggressive venting builds. it would increase the value of cooling mods.

Option to have different buttons for Grind Rail and Repair/Build Rail. My hand has tremors, I keep slightly missing and launching myself off the end

Parasitoid cave wasps.
Preatorian with hives built on the back. Destroy the nest to get at the preats weakpoint. The nests send out wasps like the stationary type to harass players in the vicinity.

[civic jasper]

Suggestion for M1000 Classic (Scout Rifle) Overclock: Targets hit with a focus shot but not killed are marked in the same way as if they were tagged with the laser pointer. Could also involve faster focus rate to help it happen

[ornate bluff]

context aware voicelines, a la the l4d2 tank: if someone's shot during a boss fight, a beratement about shooting the boss, not them

[vale quartz]

Allow gunner zip line to deal some sort of damage to enemies

[limber kayak]

additionally, voicelines for traversal/support tools running out of ammo. running out of ammo on them drowns out lines regarding the tools themselves, so you won't say lines about placing a shield, or an explosive, or a platform. having lines that just get across both ("I'm out of shields"/"that's my last platform"/"flare gun's dry") would be very appreciated

[jagged smelt]

Make it so the Huuli Hoarders time to flee or health scales with number of dwarves on the mission. I play solo mostly and killing this thing is almost impossible by yourself as it burrows away so quickly. Whats worse is half the time the thing gets hit by the environment before I am even aware it is there so it ends up leaving almost the second I become aware of it. They also seem to affect the mineral spawn rates of the caves they spawn in. Maybe it is just me but whenever they spawn I find maybe a 3rd the number of minerals I normally do.

[narrow topaz]

Small suggestion here, a random cave pocket which can spawn which contains several different types of minerals in a concentrated area.

[dapper pier]

Cat ear headband

[sterile dove]

some sort of in game tracker like the one in "they are billions" that counts how many total number of kills everyone has gotten.
Basically just takes the number of kills that people get each game and adds it to the total counter after the mission. Would only work if said player is playing online

[hollow grail]

a counter for lootbugs popped

[native granite]

a heavy sniper-rifle for engie

-it should be primary so it can be used with rj250 as secondary to jump around the cave and snipe from different positions easily
-it would have low ammo but high damage (and strong recoil)

tier 1 mod could be no scope and variants for different amount of scope in whatever "strength" fits deep rock galactic
for the other mods the usual
slightly larger magazine, more ammo, faster reload etc.

some overclocks could be:
-"explosive" shells that remove armor
-carved bullets make a loud whistling noise when shot, these can scare enemies but do less damage (the drag from the airflow slows the bullet could be written in the description)
-full auto system, more ammo, bigger clip size and higher rate of fire but lowered damage
(my favourite idea for this one:)
-"the silencer system" (description could be:) whoever designed this made it confusing because the silencing does not apply to the gun, but rather the bugs you are shooting
a lot more damage and enemy penetration but a lot less ammo and clip size

this weapon would allow players to take out more dangerous foes like bulk detonators or dreadnoughts from a safer range more effectively, while requiring better aim to do so
it would also give the engineer a few more support options with the fear/explosive armor removal and just long range damage support in general

[summer ridge]

Shredder swarm grenade needs a nerf. How about trying going from 40 second duration to 30?

I am once again asking for the ability to make Mission Control yell at us by pinging Goo Sacks too many times.

[latent hazel]

make electrocrystals take less bullets to break

[dapper cape]

I understand this might be hard to balance, but if we can make engineers turrets stronger or to get a second one, why not add different armaments for it shoot?

-simple grenade/bosco missles
-flamethrower
-sniper that prioritizes long range high health targets
-shotgun

-A portable variant that goes on your back or front, auto refills ammo when low or emptied and maybe even be put on teammates

[humble swan]

More personalized voice lines for each class.

[wheat zephyr]

A voice line for pinging Molly saying "she's doing her best!"

[grim cloak]

A really cool idea, is to add a shooting range. Imagine showing off your weapons or testing them without having to enter a mission for it

[oak matrix]

Farfetched but, miner's guild faction loot, cosmetics and skins. Never mind faction-locking and whatnot, you earn them as you do things for the faction, unlocking the opportunity to purchase them, gives miners more things to buy, and even an incentive to change faction chapters to unlock more stuff.

[hollow grail]

i would like a sticky satchel charge shaped like those spiky chestnuts( like the sticky grenades in HALO). or a stick grenade shaped satchel charge that can be thrown farther so i don't blow up myself or the team.

[plain carbon]

Probably ♻️ but very important, let us scan (like a helmet or mini mule) the broken drill dozer to have Doretta's head marked on the terrain scanner.

[hollow grail]

a larger more accurate scan would be good

a "Mini-Bosco" that follows the player like a steve and can do a single task only. you get to choose before the mission what the "Mini-Bosco" can do. choose between helping you mine, shooting enemies, reviving players or others things a Bosco can do normally. they might be less good at it but still a pet "Mini-Bosco" is a thing i think would be popular.

[deft owl]

Can I suggest Mission Control sometimes grumbling that the guys in management have really cozy jobs? Thought it would be fitting with how the players say that Mission Control has a cozy job.

[iron shoal]

Make the mini-lithophage meteors die quicker, so they take 1 power attack instead of a power attack and and 1 hit.

Just a small quality-of-life thing that won't affect the game much at all, but I feel it would make it much more satisfying to break them

[warm tartan]

A notification of when your dwarf gets pinged and who pinging you

[calm harness]

Make it so that when playing a public game, only the host can call for the drop pod. Too many times do I have people hit the button and the second objective isn't done, we haven't found the elf yet, we haven't collected all the extra minerals and gold on the map yet, we haven't done the bonuses on the map like the challenge machines or the helmet/battery pack.

[hollow grail]

yeah. i agree. a vote before the drop pod button gets pressed would stop a lot of hassle i think. heck a vote before ANY phase would solve MANY problems with people pressing to early.

[keen wasp]

let me eat the sand in sandblasted corridors (I skipped breakfast)

[ripe pendant]

actually put rails in the space rig so the dwarves can be happy

Make nemesis spawns more common? I've had like two nemesis fights, and that was the same sessions as two crassus detonators, the fear factor is absolutely fantastic when a nemesis pops up

Special "ping dwarf" voice lines based on some specific, mostly event-related cosmetics:

Scale Brigade armour/hat- It's an honour to meet one of you

Golden skin - Hey, you're rich!

Yuletide outfit/hat - Wait... What are you?

Mission Control mask - That guy in Mission Control, he really has a co- oh

Any Oktoberfest-related hat - I REALLY like your style, miner!

Pumpkin hat - Hey dwarf, will you be my body-gourd?

Snowman hat - I hope you snow what you're doing, hahaha!

Dawn of the Dread armour/hat - I nearly mistook you for a glyphid you drunk prankster!

Medical Gown - So you DID borrow my underwear!

anyone who wants to add some suggestions to it can freely do so, perhaps by replying to the comment

[viscid jungle]

Make the ability that lets us throw flares further, let us to throw grenades 20% further as well

[mental seal]

During 2023's Yuletide event, add hot cocoa to the bar :)

[deft owl]

I would love Eggnog and warm cider in addition to Hot Chocolate next Yuletide.

[ivory isle]

Add cave leeches that crawl around the celling instead of staying stationary.
They will also have extra spawns on the Cave Leech Clusters warning.

[ruby shore]

Make the Driller’s flamethrower able to effectively torch the Glyphid nests that you can find in walls, Aliens-style.

[rain mountain]

maybe a kill line for a rockpox praetorian or grunt
"That's for all the Steeve's on Hoxxes!"

[vestal yew]

Maybe make the union quotas a bit larger since there's still 25 days left to finish and all the unions are already done with their quests.
another way to potentially fix this is with multiple different quests for each union

[proper jewel]

The game really needs a "Clear New" button, for everytime you unlock a new color for guns you have to go and hover over them or the exclamation mark doesn't disappear.

What do you think about adding a national Polish miner's cap?

[dapper zenith]

overclocks for the miner suits allowing different buffs

Xynarch Charge Suckers actually appearing on electrocrystals, not only on BET-C. (I suppose they feed mainly on eletricity)

[split harness]

small thing, the corporate marine helmet pokes through the collar of the mk 4 gunner armor, might look better with the collar off like with beards. or better yet an option to disable or enable armor collars at will, but that would be more work

[hollow grail]

A buff for when STEVE dies. your guys gets a RAGE boost for about 30 secs that boosts attack and defence and roars about how they will pay for what they have done to poor STEVE. the STEVE must be killed by an enemy not a player for this to activate.

[analog phoenix]

New upgrades for Bosco to make him a bit more like a second teammate and replaces the light up an area command for Bosco (or just has a different bind)

Compact Platform Deployment
-Fires one of engineers platforms
-1 charge, regenerates every 60 seconds
-provides fall damage resistance

Hydraulic Launch Mechanism
-Bosco will go in between where the player and where they pinged, and fire off a grapple to catch onto the player and the surface they want to move towards, launching them when they hit the half way point (or hit X)
-8 Charges
-Doesn't regenerate

Zip-line Deployment Apparatus
-Bosco will go to where the player stood when pinging, then fire off a zip-line to the pinged location (if invalid, Bosco will make a noise before moving to position)
-2 Charges
-Regenerates 3 times (for a total of 6 zip-lines)
-20 second recharge time

Heavy Explosive Package
-Bosco will go to the pinged area and place a C4, this C4 will have a 10 second timer (or have the player ping again to detonate, with X bringing it back) and deal low damage to bugs with the minimal range for breaking ground
-2 charges
-Regenerates once (for a total of 4 C4)
-30 second recharge time

I'd also recommend if this is done that Bosco stick closer to the player or increase his speed a bit.

stats i've recommended are obviously not concrete and should have testing dictate the stats, i just want my little buddy to help out a bit more

[rain shuttle]

Make option to customize keyboard layout for each class seperatly

[reef pecan]

Suggestion

Cabin Customization. I know this has been suggested before but I wanted to try my own spin on it

A: If you clear either X amount of a certain Mission Type
B: If you clear Mission Type on Hazard 5
C: If you clear Mission Type at a certain amount of bonus % by Hazard Lever and Dangers
(Let's use Escort Duty as an example)

You get a togglable cabin decoration(maybe a weapon charm if that suggestion ever gets added) relating to that type of mission, my idea for a Escort Duty would be the Doretta headpiece, or maybe a scaled down figurine of Doretta

My ideas thus far is

On Site Refining: Liquid Morkite 'Lava Lamp'
Salvage Operation: Mini Mule tucked under the desk, or somewhere else in the cabin
Escort Duty: Doretta Head/Mini Doretta/Fake Ommoran Heartstone Core
Elimination: Miniature Dreadnought Cocoon/Dreadnought Figurines

This is my first suggestion here, and I'm fairly late to this game, but I thought I should try and put my own spin on the cabin customization. I can get if this is too similar to the already suggested customization though

[ivory isle]

Brew ideas (expecting a lot of downvotes for these):
Scavenger Ale
Cost: 2 Barley Bulbs
Desc.: A wise Gunner once said 'You can never have enough bullets or beer!'. Well, you can imagine what happened next.
Effect: +16% to avoid consuming a bullet on every shot

Caustic Draught (if the rockpox becomes a resident on Hoxxes like the Caretaker)
Cost: 3 Barley Bulbs
Desc.: Even the most resilient need a boost sometimes. Just make sure not to throw up from the smell.
+20% resistance to rockpox infection, but rockpox enemies cause +10% more damage

Legend's Red Ale
Cost: 4-5 Barley Bulbs
Desc.: After Karl's disappearance, some say the only thing that came back was his blood. Or a killer brew. It's hard to tell, but hey, drink it and see if you get superpowers!
Effect: For this mission only, gain a chance to spawn 4 ghosts of Steeves past when low on health

This may be too utopic and crazy to impliment, but I am completley in for a weekly Boss Raid kinda thing in a unique hive like biome where you fight a hivequeen or some shit which you have to summon by angering her by gathering "points" which you get by going on a rampage and killing all the bugs in the hive

Update to the PressKit
Add in game models, textures and audio files so it allows players to make their own deep rock creations.
Been wanting to make a dramatic animated deep rock galactic fan-made trailer but only have access to a few resources to do so

[viscid jungle]

I dunno if that was already suggested, but
Please add a mactera dreadnought

[little mica]

I know it's a weird idea, how about adding a menu with phrases that dwarves could say?

For example - you want to blow up your teammate with a nuclear grenade launcher. You open the menu with phrases and select the phrase: "your judgment day has come, MUAAHAHAHAHA!"

PS In order not to spam this, we could take a break between phrases of 10 seconds.

[pale mountain]

Not sure if idea has been suggested but - any chance for a visible timer on status effects? Say a coloured border line that tells you how long it will take before the neurotoxin (or any other effect) wears off?

A replay Mission option on the mission board, so even if the board has changed you can replay the previous mission! (with it's modifiers)

[shut mango]

Call me dumb but maybe adding a few matrix cores to the performance pass ( blank, weapon, and cosmetic). An issue I run into somewhat is that I mainly just don’t have enough time to get any cores in between holiday assignments, daily challenges, and promotions. It would be a good way to at least give matrix cores to those who don’t have enough time to do deep dives or core hunts

[wary zinc]

New effect type for use in weapons/equipment/overclocks: draw/taunt
Inverse of fear, in the sense that it gives a percent chance to draw enemies within range towards a specific point (and would be resisted by fear resist).
Could be added to the L.U.R.E to make it more likely to draw attention (rather than just another potential target), and could help draw bugs away from downed allies, etc.
It would be particularly good for setting up combo moves with AOE weapons, especially on lower hazards, where the bugs aren't that thick to begin with.

[paper geode]

"Damage Dealt to Boss" as an extra statistic on mission completion screen for extermination/sabotage missions

[old geyser]

have laser pointer pinging teammate for getting attention be separate for compliments. so saying, "Hey, Gunner! i need your attention" would be left click, and "you make this team really wholesome!" be right click

m1000 overclock: Blunderbuss

-Charge shot fires 6 pellets at once

[modern slate]

OK, we all have times in game where we have to wait for the mule to come across the map so we can deposit, and those times when teammates fight you over who gets the mule first, so i had the idea of a red perk called MINI MULE, we have already seen them being used in the deep rock universe, now they make sense. there can be 3 levels to the perk, each one increases the storage of the mini mule (I thought having limited storage was a good way to balance this perk more) and slightly makes the mini mule faster compared to the base mule, and since this mini mule needs a name, MILLY seems fitting as its a MINI MOLLY, also, to be more clear, she's YOUR personal mule that only follows you, (i had the idea that you could assign her to a teammate but that seems kind of overpowered), let me know if this idea is any good at all, thx

[tribal chasm]

A new Modifier, known as Megaflora Invasion, where the biomes deadly plant growths show up in absurd numbers and are harder to destroy, with wider open caverns

"Strike the earth!" power attack voiceline

[mental umbra]

for events that adds decorations. it would be cool to add a decoration to each of the mission types. for example yuletide having doretta wearing a christmas hat, the eggs being christmas wrapped (or the aquarq), the dreadnought egg having a shiny bow, and mini mules having an elf outfit.

[wild kettle]

I know hazard 6 has been suggested before
And I know it’s also possible with mods

On console, you can not use mods.

That being said, Hazard 6.
+200% hazard bonus
+33% from 133% as being a step up from Hazard 5
+34% from a random warning that is not revealed until you are already in the mission

(Plus the typical number changes as with all hazards)

[visual rune]

Customizable Rooms. Nothing too complex, just a few premade options you can choose for each corner of the room. HOWEVER the BIGGEST change to the room would be a Collectibles shelf, Add like 40 extremely rare Collectibles to the game with achievements tied to them. as you carry them back to the drop pod youll see the collectible appear on your shelf. it would be cool when a new miner joins your station and everyone runs into his room to see how hes decorated and how many collectibles hes managed to find

[daring coral]

Let us use the vacuum tool to clear a green prateorean fart cloud

melee weapons for the different classes like gunner could have a combat knife. driller could have extra mods for the drills (can be anything from more damage or anything) engi could have a sword or something made out of rivel tech robot parts and scout would have knife or a sword

[hollow compass]

“Bulked” versions of every glyphid, like how exploders have bulk detonators, a glyphid slasher could have something called a “Blade Cluster” or something

[valid night]

If another region of Hoxxes 4 ever gets added, an area that spawns different creature as a glyphid alternative base enemy

[hollow grail]

a Boomerang type gadget or ability for the Pickaxe to reach those VERY HARD to reach red sugar and other ores in difficult spots. also in a pinch the pickaxe/boomerang would work as a emergency weapon when out of bullets but you can't reach the target normally.

[tall thicket]

so, this has probably been mentioned a lot of times, but its one that I really would like to see, as it would add a bit more customization and personality to each person - flares
currently the flares are already an 'equipment' option in the equipment terminal, and having some form of upgrades on them would be nice (hell, even an overclock. will get to that soon)
my main idea would be the following:
each person would be able to modify their flares in one of four specific ways
1: brighter light. obvious what it does
2: shorter cooldown. again, obvious what it does. cooldown could be cut by 25%, 50%, whatever
3: higher maximum. allows you to carry more flares total. say 2-3 more
4: longer burn. each thrown flare burns for a longer time. say 10 or 15 seconds more
I feel having these as options would make each person a bit more unique. each class could benefit from each type. scout having a shorter cooldown could mean they could explore faster. gunner having a brighter light being able to see further. engineer having a longer burn allowing them to sit in one spot with their sentries without throwing as many flares, and driller having a higher maximum to allow them to make more complex tunnels

as for those overclocks I mentioned. I haven't thought of any for clean/balanced, though more purely focused on unstable overclocks for them
1: micro flares - flares emit much less light, but are faster to charge, and you carry more
2: mega flare - one big, bulky flare. has a much longer recharge time, and cant be thrown far at all, but has some bright light, and lasts a decent amount of time
3: cluster flares - less total flares, and a longer recharge, though throwing one flare pops into multiple miniflares, similar to the cluster bomb
4: clip on hook - completely removes the ability to throw flares. however, you are given a 'clip on hook', and your dwarf glows. effect is only 75% as effective as the high intensity flare

I have other ideas for other things, such as the ability to see others loadouts, and firing range/horde mode things, but, that could be another time

[native granite]

a beer that makes you spit out some maggots, like that one scene in harry potter

[ivory isle]

Replace the current mission select screen with a 3D one.
This sounds like it may not make any sense, it would allow for multiple consistency errors to be fixed.
Azure Weald is stated to be adjacent to magma core on the map, but in the load screen the drop pod goes to the small chunk that floats off of Hoxxes while Magma Core is below.
This would also fix how despite the fact that all of the zones are simply stated to only take up a small portion of the map they actually cover the entire surface.

[alpine cove]

Cryocannon should cool down magma and hot rock so you can walk on it. Similar to the flamethrower melting snow and ice.

when molly has the Heartstone attached to her, hitting it with a pickaxe does make different particles, but they're pink crystal particles (should be orange and glowy) and doesnt actually play any sound when you hit it

Let me post images in #deep-dive-discussion

[native granite]

a perk that gives you climbing gear

this would allow you to climb small walls and maybe descent slower if youre running on the side of a wall (the climbing hight shouldnt be too big so it isnt a must pick perk but instead only saves a little bit of time and maybe some ammo for some things like platforms)

[hollow compass]

Mactera Hive biome, basically just always has the “Mactera Infestation” warning, with something else still replacing glyphids idk what tho

[ivory isle]

Make it so that when a player's rank is 500+ it will say "KARL WOULD BE PROUD".

[ionic tartan]

I don't know if anyone has put this here, but it would be great if we got a shooting range of some kind to test guns

[latent hazel]

a death screen pose where a generic drone has to shoo away a bunch of glyphid swarmers that are gnawing on you

[plain carbon]

A toggle-able option for controller that puts interact on the call molly button during on-site refinery missions. Would be huge QoL as it is very annoying not being able to initiate a reload on the pipes without it stopping.

Weapon cosmetic pack themed around the core minerals (Nitra, Gold and Morkite)

add "change main save" or something similar in the save menu. to avoid pop ups when starting the game again if the active save is different from main.

(i made a new one when changing devices just in case and now i'm stuck in a situation where i get the pop up because i'm using the save i made instead of the base one. don't wanna give up the limited edition hats and go back to the base save)

Dark Morkite rework : If the mission type isn't specifically requiring morkite maybe lower cave complexity 1 bar

The addition of some "mimic" or "trickster" mobs, that follows the player around and would either take the form or sound of other hostile.
They don't necessarily need to attack the player.

Unless I completely missed it and there is such an option already, an ability to disable the chat box closing when you delete all text. It's inconsistent with every single multiplayer game I've ever played and I know it hasn't always been like that either.

A "Nitra Rush" mission anomaly with extra nitra- And the opposite, a warning for lower nitra in that level.

[sturdy lotus]

More exp for failed mission are needed , 34 min down the drain cause we were not able to find the last 2 aquarks , we did find them at the end but got a detonator spawn + endless swarmer's , i like a challenge , but fuck off with the hidden aquarks and constant waves while those turrets at the base are unresuped , MORE CHALLANGE > LESS TEDIOSNES , MORE MISSION DEBTH > FUCK set difficulty multiplier with handicap , improve the AI of the bugs instead of sending endless swarms with bugs side moving kills

[split idol]

unsure if it has been said but just in case: keep the random promotions sure they're great but at least make them similar to teh weeklies(as in whatever mission it is its shared between everybody for a day/week) so that they're the same and people can group up

[hollow grail]

rare enemies made of or encrusted with various minerals that we can get after we kill them. they would be almost like a golem but made of bismore or other types of minerals.

a mission type where all resources are mined from lootbugs. it could be a lootbug infestation mission. to control an expolsive outbreak of the lootbug population. also add more variety to the contents of a lootbug.

[pale temple]

Molly should have multiple drop pod buttons. Kinda like on machine events with the implication that each member should press one before the drop pod comes. Would mostly help with console games where we can't use chat quickly to ask if everyone is ready.

make bosco have the ability to pick up apoca bloms

[shut mango]

perhaps some "end-game" use for phazyonite and blank cores to make cosmetic cores. the bare bones idea being ~100 phazyonite + blank core = cosmetic core (and only cosmetic cores).

[sleek river]

I won’t be the first or last person to suggest this but please give us some use for error cubes it’s cool and all too see them in game but why make them rare and extremely useless

[viscid jungle]

How about letting us "wipe out" glypid swarmer tunnels (just stopping them from spawning from those)? To do that you need 1 out of 4 grenades: neurotoxin (driller), plasma (engineer), incendiary (gunner) or the cryo ones (scout). Toss a grenade into or near the tunnels and no swarmers will spawn there anymore

[gloomy sleet]

A low chance for lootbugs to be mineral loot bugs than drops minerals depending on the biome.

Yeah i guess its just a huuli hoarder

Add a variant of On-site Refining that has a Length of 3 and a Complexity of 3.
Currently, On-site Refining is a fun mission but I feel like it is a lot shorter than most other missions.
The Morkite Wells will be placed much further from the Refinery and from each other, and they can be spread around the Refinery instead of being placed close, but not next to each other.
On-site Refining XP Values
3000 Primary XP
1400 Secondary XP (Collectables)
1270 Secondary XP (Mining Materials)

[rose pasture]

I have a suggestion for a Multiplayer function. A Multiplayer pause that takes effect when everyone is in the Escape Menu during a mission. I play with my family in DRG, and we have days when Reality just demands attention that needs tending. We would like to pause whenever such incursions rise, rather than having to risk losing the mission just to tend real life.

[honest fable]

When playing a refinery mission, I’ve noticed a bug where if you complete the lithophage breakout before starting up the refinery. After you finish the refinery, MC will mention how you just need to finish the cleanup of lithopage and you’re done. Instead of correcting it, would it be possible to change the line to him recognizing he messed up his checklist. Maybe a few different types of lines where he acknowledges that’s it’s already done. Like how with quests he has a chance to congratulate you early for finishing all missions.

[river verge]

Can you give us a pet lootbug in the main lobby that we can give silly cosmetic hats

[tough raft]

Can you make it so doty counts as a player in escort results.

[hollow grail]

is there a perk for attracting minerals to the player? if not a "Magnetic Personality" perk would be cool. this perk would slightly increase the pickup range of any broken minerals/red sugar.

some levels have stuff like those "PINECONE" things. they have no use yet. how about making those into extra beer ingredients?

[mortal narwhal]

If volatile bullets is ever nerfed. I have a proposal that would keep balance AND not upset VB users. Instead of reducing the bonus damage, reduce the base damage. The penalty of damage is increased from -10 to -15 or -20. This would partially solve the up front problem of extreme damage, but more importantly solves the “hidden” problem that isn’t why people use VB: taking 1 damage mod on VB negates the downside, while still having good ammo. VB is not enough of a commitment when you take it. What we are doing here is the same thing that was done to bullets of mercy. The only difference is, we aren’t increasing the upside, because the upside is already very extreme.
If this penalty is increased, VB will need to take both damage mods in order to have 60 base damage (which is needed if you want to use the bulldog “normally”).
As for 40 base damage being too low for the 4x multiplier to compete with elephant rounds/homebrew powder: it’s not too low. 40*4 = 160, and for ER to rival that, it would need both damage mods, so no ammo.
tl;dr: reducing the base damage of VB would balance it out while not angering volatile bullets fans

[hollow grail]

can we give the ENGINEER the ability to scavenge/recover any missplaced platforms to save on ammo. i think this would be a huge help. i see many missfired platforms in videos and much regret when they then need those later.

[vale ibex]

add "# lootbugs pet" stat on the end screen

[urban marlin]

Add a “Leeroy Jenkins” style voice line to Nemesis.

[mental seal]

Lakes and ponds in the caves along with underwater beasts would be such a fun addition!

[bright chasm]

i think a harpoon gun would be an awesome addition to the weapon selection, being a weapon for hunting the biggest Earth animals ever i think it would be right at home on Hoxxes. It would work similar to the boltshark, but less focused on utility and far more so on huge single-target damage. the drawbacks would be zero AoE/crowd control (without using unstable overclocks, I assume), firing a possibly slow projectile and being single-shot. it MUST also be able to pin bugs (dead or alive, whatever balance requires) to surfaces. i'm not sure what class would have it (maybe an engi secondary, since he seems to get the big secondaries). It does fill a similar role to hyper-propellant PGL, but this hasn't been an issue in the past (minigun and diffractor also share similar roles) and the rule of cool applies imo.

[hollow compass]

Biome-specific voice lines, like the one for the current elite deep dive: "While I love the feeling of sand between my toes, the boots stay on because I love having toes"

[iron knoll]

Please update the screenshots on the steam store page for the supporter upgrade. I'm happy to support the devs, but am pretty disappointed that the armor is not as depicted in those screenshots. The one line of text stating "This is now a Paintjob and can be applied to all armors" and the showcase far into the video are the only notices of the change.

Before having looked into it and learning that they were updated, I was under the impression that you'd get the (old) new sets of armor since they clearly look quite different if you've been playing already. The scout's especially really caught my eye in the screenshots but it looks completely different in-game with the blue undersuit. And the Gunner's plates are different, with lots of green bits added.

[latent hazel]

please make dense biozone have less super-giant rooms

[latent hazel]

make the nuk17s' reload flourish (spinning both of them) loopable by holding the reload button

Victory pose where the victim falls into the pod, dies, but then reanimates into a t-pose with their arms clipping into the other dwarves.

Or something involving lightning strikes

[hollow compass]

An inverted version of “It’s a bug thing” where it’s impossible to kill lootbugs by your hand (i want to pet them). And also a version of beast master but for lootbugs (the bug is invincible but doesn’t attack, only real buff is that it keeps enemies away from you while you’re downed)

[dry mist]

Add voice lines for when you order beers while drunk

[hearty finch]

a new dreadnaught plss

[clear shell]

just something interesting I thought

A mission type or warning: escalated plague

mission control: "we have news that meteors have struck the rivals, good news that they're destroyed, bad news is that the plague has taken advantage of their empty metal shells turning them into plague spreading zombie robots"

-infected rivals are tougher, have weak spots, flying enemies are slower, and make distorted sounds

-infected basic turrets fire plague bullets that deal less damage and are less accurate
-repulsion turrets lob small plague projectiles and only shoot shields on a single side instead of multiple
-sniper turrets fire slower bullets and less damaging plague bullets

-infected prospector lobs plague projectiles, calls infected glyphids and infected patrol bots
-infected patrol bots can't fly high off the ground, fire inaccurate plague bullets and missiles, and cannot be hacked

-nemesis can't fly high off the ground, cannot use repulsion shields, it's breakable armor blocks it's weak spots, still grabs close dwarves

-nemesis calls for help in a distorted voice instead of making intimidating voice lines like "nemesis seeks maintenance" and "I am error error error"

[dry vortex]

For the kursite event, it is very noticeable for the acid spitter version that the enemies just don’t seem to spawn fast enough.
Maybe lowering the amount of kursite required for the acid spitter version by about 15-20% would make this version of the even much fairer

[wild kettle]

New machine event

[limpid spear]

A new weekly item shop has been requested before. Here is my take: Once every Dwarf has been promoted once a new section in the existing item shop will open. This shop updates weekly with a small selection of core and lost pack cosmetics. This had also the added effect of giving the shop a reason to visit once all normal cosmetics have been purchased.

[near glacier]

you can get taken away by the drop pod and still fail the mission.

if the drop pod timer runs out, and the pod starts launching, you can still jump on it and climb inside before the door closes, and get carried up by it.

but the mission is still a failure. i can see why mechanically this is the case, the cutoff is when the timer reaches zero.

however from a gameplay perspective being able to get on the escape shuttle but not have the mission a success feels very off.

maybe a second check once the doors close for dwarfs in the shuttle would make the game feel just a little better in this specific edge case.

[untold vault]

I've playing haz 5 for a while and more things to kill feels great but all that extra meat to grind could have even more spice into it.
I suggest more CC and DoT to the bugs, especially those who spit long ranged things, to give support to the hordes. Leave that web spitter to the green beards and brew some alt variants that spit acid (that would do lots DoT if shield is down), pheromone that would make the insects go berserk (move faster, attack faster) and sticky goo to slow the movement and perhaps jam weapons or crippling the fire rate, reload timing etc.

[rain mountain]

A bit of a maybe redundant suggestion, but I love the pheromone items that scout has, and I feel like it'd be nice to know what bugs are affected by it. Not those under the effects of the status effect, but the ones attracted to the pheromone-covered bugs.
Maybe give them a little glow like steve but red when targeting a 'friendly' bug, because sometimes it takes the bugs a bit to turn around and you might not get the full benefits of the grenade/bolt. Probably a trivial suggestion but would be nice quality of life, I guess.

[gray laurel]

Suggestion to add buttons to copy Loadouts and specific appearance of a loadout so you don't have to do things from scratch when making new one.

[untold vault]

I wonder if this was already suggested...
Steeve gets shoot too often, even with that glow so... how about giving him a little cosmetic love, like custom armor and/or hat to make the boy a little bit more distinction and stylish perhaps?

[tranquil sky]

The option to open a solo lobby to public/friends when in mission. but not a public/friends only lobby to public.

[hoary portal]

underground lakes?

[ocean mist]

This idea has probable been suggested before but I think a clan system would be nice and maybe you could even share resources among your clan members

[hollow compass]

More grabbing enemies so that Heightened Senses is less situational

Have victory moves ether moved to the shop only or keep them in the crate as a multi class item, nothing is more annoying then getting a cargo crate after a good while and getting another victory move for the 4th time in a row

[near glacier]

5th Class, 5 player co-op

[hollow plaza]

Hmm maybe make the minigun eat more ammo per shot but also fire at 11 rpm and fire 4 pellets a shot with more armour breaking to compensate for the weaker pellets
so from 2 ammo 1 pellet 10 damage to 4 ammo 4 pellets 2.5 damage per pellet

[obsidian roost]

Add more ways to get OC's and lower the amount of OC's
Problems:
• There is a big time hard cap for new players to get all OC's. You can't play more in a short amount of time to get more OC's, which is frustrating for those that already move onto higher difficulties but still don't have an OC for every weapon that they use. I believe the number was ~21 weeks to get all weapon OC's and that will only increase in the future.
• There are 101 cosmetic overclocks, but that's for each class, which increases that number to 404... I don't think it's rewarding to unlock a cool cosmetic but only be able to use it for one class. That only increases the time needed to unlock everything for the sake of increasing said time.

Possible fixes:
• Add more assignments after reaching certain player levels that reward you with a few OC's
• Reward the player with one OC for every promotion (1st star is blank, 2nd is weapon & 3rd is cosmetic), that adds a small optional reward for promoting past the first promotion!
• Combine the same cosmetic overclocks into one (from 404 to 101), unlocking a cosmetic OC should unlock it for all classes. Let us use the drip as we want to! 👀

[visual rose]

Make it so you can befriend lootbugs either a perk or by feeding them and if you feed them/befriend them enough they will sniff out gold and nitra for the player to get, but you have to feed them a little every time or they leave

[ripe pendant]

Morkite mining missions are fantastic as they are, just a simple goal and a simple way to reach it. However, I often find that these missions lack substantial amounts of morkite sometimes and I'm left to be scrounging around for any tiny bits of morkite I can find. My account is currently level 70, and I still have trouble finding all of the morkite for these missions. All I'm asking is for, in the final room of these missions, to have a couple more veins of morkite there. 3 or 4 times now these missions have lasted upwards of 35 minutes for me.

[vestal yew]

perhaps improve the DRG server (connection server, not discord). I find that i'm constantly being disconnected from games (and no its not my wifi, i've already checked that dozens of times). I have no clue why this issue occurs so often, but its just a quality of life thing that would be nice to be improved upon. Even adding an easy reconnect button if you disconnect from a game would be amazing! (yes i know there's one for game crashes, but its not the same thing)

Pls devs, we need this. Would be awesome to have a hammer to break armor and crush glyphids and have a blade to dismember glyphids

[crisp robin]

New enemy: The R.A.T.S (Rotary Array Terrain System) [Name Pending]

• This is a new set of malfunctioning equipment that was rushed out of R&D before they found out that it does in fact attack dwarves as well as glyphids.
• It takes the appearance of a vast array of small burrowing turrets that will hide in any surface along the walls, ceiling, or floor.
• They are designed to fire at anything that strays too close to them for too long, blinking a warning light for two seconds before opening fire unless the target backs away, where they are now vulnerable.
• It is unadvised to do so however as the destruction of one will alert all other turrets in the nearby area to rise to their defense, with a longer warning mode of 5 seconds before being shredded into hamburger.
  - It is best to avoid them rather than attempt to destroy them.
• A R.A.T.S system can be easily spotted by the slight ticking noise that each turret makes, the studs peppering the surrounding caves that are the hiding holes for each turret, and the cave walls being splattered by the blood of unfortunate glyphids from prior engagements.
• In the center of the hive is the initial deployment pod and the central computer of the R.A.T.S system and it can be dealt with by walking your short stubby asses towards the box and simply interacting with it. This will bring out a hacking minigame where you will install a hotfix to the software, fixing the bug that makes it fire at dwarves and permanently turning the area into a save zone for miners and a hell for the rest of Hoxes.

[hollow grail]

i want to see an alternative to the HOVERBOOTS. i am thinking PLATFORMSHOES. these will have a cool down but will allow any player equiped with them to place a platform once in a set amount of time. the recharge for the shoes would be about 2-4 flares time between uses but you would need to be by a wall or something to use it or else the platform has nothing to attach to. this will also help if you have no engineer on the team.

[hollow compass]

Make Karl the 5th class in DRG lore

[stark sparrow]

Suit and tie armors and a proper top hat with a eye monocle (not all patched up) and maybe even a victory pose with a dapper cane

[remote bay]

Many People probably have said this before, but how about upgrades for flares? Maybe longer duration time or you can carry around a bigger amount, possibly even a lower cooldown

[near glacier]

I like the current amount of voicelines in-game when petting Steeve, but they get repetitive after a while, and I wanted to suggest a couple ideas I came up with for new ones:

"Steeve! My eight-legged brother in arms!"
"Agh! Stay away from my lunch box!"
"I wonder if I could teach you to play fetch!"
"Maybe the Engineer could rig you up with one of his sentries! Haha!"
"Do Glyphids eat sandwiches? Damn, now I'm hungry!"
"What if we attached the Gunner Shield onto Steevie's back? Mobile cover! Haha!"

[dusk vigil]

So minor thing, could we kinda get a revamped overclock forge menu? Like being able to go by weapon/cosmetic, class, and overclock level

[fading finch]

It would be nice to be able to pick things up while on a zipline. Completely unnecessary most of the time, I know, but it just feels kind of wrong not to be able to, and it can be quite annoying on the one occasion where it would actually be useful.

[solar fern]

beer's long lasting effects
we all love beer but the fun simply doesnt last long enough
basically make beer effects carry over into missions in some minor way like mactera brew making dwarf pass the gas like every now and then or flintlock giving you a slight kick sometimes
and ofcourse make wipe those buffs so we can still have fun at rig without hindering ourselves for mission
more chaos required

[hollow compass]

If steeve survives the mission, add a dog house with his name on it and him sleeping in said dog house

Make the game a bit more realistic with a food chain:
-Cave leech feeds on glyphids (Can have obvious advantages so idk how they’d balance it)
-Macteras feed on cave leech
-Glyphids feed on spitballers and other Hoxxes fauna

[high robin]

Another engineer sentry option, it could walk around

[hollow grail]

add a small doretta trophy and a steve statue in the memorial hall. afterall they gave their lives in the call of duty. they deserve no less.

[lyric ore]

What if you could get sponsored by one of the breweries and do missions while under the influence of their beer for rewards

[old geyser]

make the gravity recalibration a toggle switch
hit once for low grav, hit again to return to normal

[dry mist]

A new mission type
(Ive dubbed Extermination)

goal: clear the cave of an extensive bug infestation

do the regular gathering of resources but then call down a "bug beacon" which will summon a large swarm of enemies which will last a decent amount of time. Once the swarm is over the beacon will return to the space rig, then go to another part of the cave and do it again but this swarm will be much bigger with more tankier bugs (like bulks, oppressors, brundles, praetorians)

repeat like, 2-4 times with maybe the final 1-2 beacons summoning a dreadnought?

maybe make it so larger glyphids drop some nitra so the players don't easily run out or make the caves generate with more nitra and less gold.

[wild kettle]

Give cryo cannon a better “Inspect” animation
Right now the animation is just lifting it up a few inches then returning to normal. Very underwhelming for its design

[hollow compass]

Weapon that replaces engineer's sentry with Bosco

[stoic notch]

We should be able to pet Bosco. We can pet Breathers, Doretta, Lootbugs etc. but not Bosco? I was surprised to notice this.

[native granite]

i would love to see some different shapes for minerals like gold, nitra and dystrum

maybe they could, instead of one line, be small dots on the wall
or go into the rock, instead of along it

if anyone comes up with some more options, feel free to add them

[paper geode]

i have some quality of life mods installed, and honestly the necessity for me to have them really makes me question the reason why i need to install them in the first place.

HAND/WRIST HEALTH

• Why is there a sprint button with infinite sprint that has no purpose other than making the player move faster? Just remove sprint and make the sprint speed the default walk speed. I don't want to have to hold shift for 90% of the mission, that makes my pinky sore.
• Similarly, having to spam jump in a game that encourages lots and lots of jumping can also hurt my thumb. Auto-bhop should be a thing.

INFORMATION & READABILITY

• I think it's a crime that you can overpromote from Legend 3 and not receive any extra bling or clout
• Default weapon viewmodels take up far too much screen real estate for me and it's frustrating to not have a default viewmodel minmode option. I still like looking at them, of course, but I don't want them right next to my face.
• The platform placement preview mod has literally changed my engineer experience entirely for the positive and should become base game
• Blast radius is in a similar spot. The pulsing effect is cool but not entirely accurate to the true blast radius.
• Having to do mental math in my head to figure out if I'm below 50% ammo for a resupply is a bit dumb... other games tell you when your ammo is low, why not DRG?
• Mission control making everything else quieter is unnecessary as his voice is distinct enough from the sounds of normal gameplay to be able to understand, especially when you mute him
• Having to divert my eyes to the corner of the screen in order to check overheating can be fatal in high-intensity situations and there should be an indicator on the crosshair.

ACCESSIBILITY & MOTION SICKNESS

• Turret spotlights should be disabled with photosensitivity mode on
• Downed spectating can be nauseating since your view while spectating other players is locked to their facing angle. Spectating should be improved.

[tough raft]

I was thinking about a few new traversal weapons.

jetpack, x amount of fuel use by holding jump

terrain gun, sucks up terrain and shoots out to build off the ground/walls.

The jackhammer, a gun that shoots a drill head for x distance. Drilling an 1 player wide hole.

Cybernetic Limb Implant for Massive Bouldering. (C.L.I.M.B.). Cybernetic limbs that allows you to climb/stand on walls for x duration

[hallow widget]

back blades that you unlock after promoting a class for the first time for instance the scout would get a grappling hook back blade the driller would get a drill back blade the gunner would get a magazine back blade and the engie would get a sentry back blade (listen i'm tryin i don't know what they should be i'm just spit ballin here i just think they should be centered around the class that was promoted) this would get more choices for fashion in game and more people would play to get their characters promoted faster

[vestal yew]

Maybe some more accessible lore we can find and inference?

[oak matrix]

Blasphemy is what this is, but I'd like to suggest for the Hiveguard boss to be shortened somewhat, as I felt that Hiveguards take an unusually longer amount of time to take down compared with twins and the classic dreadnought.

Maybe make it that the Hiveguard's front weakpoints are exposed when the rear weakpoint is closed, but give the sentinels the ability to buff the hiveguard's damage resistance against incoming gunfire when they are near her, sort of like how the queen's guardians would defend her against intruders, and the dwarves can choose to either kill the sentinels first, or just go straight for the Hiveguard.

[modern mountain]

Can the volume of the Coffee Stain splash screen be reduced, or the Master sound level be applied before the sound is played?
It blasts my ears every time I start the game, and my Master volume is set to 10 %, because DRG is just so damn loud
I slowly start to feel like I'm going deaf here

[tribal chasm]

When an enemy affected by chem bolt explodes, it should pass on the status to nearby enemies hit by the aoe...

Or something more exciting, like constantly explode while it's still alive.

[hollow grail]

add new drinks like the "Rootbeer Float" it gives you a slow-fall or moon-jump effect during your next mission.

[tribal chasm]

Let us view the map while we're downed?

[rich pebble]

Secondary weapon idea for the Driller;

the "Marauder" Combat Shotgun
"Against the larger threats that dwell within Hoxxes, handguns and flamethrowers may prove to be ineffective. The Marauder, however, packs enough punch to destroy just about anything you point it at, along with your wrists."

The Marauder is a deadly pump-action shotgun that specializes in taking down large targets, it lacks the ability to perform quick follow-up shots, so avoid using it on cannon fodder and make each shot count.

• Massive 8 gauge shells deal respectable damage with a relatively tight spread.
• Additional damage is dealt to a target if all pellets hit an enemy's weakpoint.
• Due to the pistol grip and shortened barrel it's equipped with, the Marauder has high recoil and a dramatic increase in spread with each shot.

[sterile dove]

If overclocks are ever add for utility, I want one for gunners shield that changes it into a deployable cover like the amped wall from titanfall. Lasts a super long time and covers you front, but leaves you exposed in the back and top. Still fears bugs that get close, but they can go around behind you

[hollow compass]

Capitalizing on this:
-one for scout’s grappling hook that increases range but also the cooldown time
-One for the zipline gun, “Elevator”, that offers unlimited angle but can either be knocked off easily or can’t use the “go faster” feature when descending
-“Trampoline” overclock for engineer’s platform gun which makes them bouncy (makes cartoon “boi-oi-oi-yoing” sound bc funny)
-Flare gun overclock that doubles duration but halves ammo
-Another that adds a fear factor so bugs stay away from lit flares
-Overclock for Sentries that gives them infinite ammo but now finite health

[latent hazel]

bet-c's step dirt effects should be white instead of brown in glacial strata

[river sentinel]

When you are solo and complete the mission you get the bosco at the end screen with you (perhaps doing some emote like your dwarf does) maybe the same would apply to steve if you extract with him alive

[untold stratus]

Support for using custom launch options in Steam to skip the launch pop-up.

[dapper cape]

I don’t want this to come off the wrong way, but it’d be neat if you can give comparable ammo to teammates

Edit: like a scout giving shotgun shells to engi

[untold stratus]

The game definitely could use an "apply to all loadouts" button. Without one, weapon and pickaxe customization is a huge pain.

[dusk stratus]

What about an end screen celebration involving steeve? Like riding one into the end screen of the mission. So at least I can have the head canon of bringing him on the rig

[dusk stratus]

A brewery assignment like to get brewing ingredients from doing missions, I'm not getting any new assignments lately and I'm joining just to Hoard Yeast Cones, I know it's not a necessary thing, and it'll probably be not even worth the effort but like I hate having to rely on rng to get my favourite brew

Perk strong hands has a new passive effect:
Eggs, cubes, elf and etc will not drop out of hands, if dwarf fall from high place

[austere pollen]

I don't care how its added. But I think it would be funny to have something curling related. As in the sport curling. Because they throw rocks.

[livid girder]

let us customize support tools

|| i wanna have a grappling hook that looks 95% shiny stuff that serves no purpose other than to be shiny or some cool looking sentries that look like they should shoot high powered lazer beams instead of bullets or an RGB shield generator or a C4 that looks like a pillow, cus why not? ||

[austere pollen]

A new perk that allows dwarfs to see gold and nitra on the terrain scanner. You have to be at least in 30 - 50m from the gold or nitra.

[bitter wasp]

ebonite glyphids shouldn't explode with volatile guts, it doesn't make sense that the thing you are supposed to do for the event would kill you, also its a rock so it doesnt make sense for them to explode

[visual inlet]

I think it would be cool to make the game VR-supported, I saw in pinned that it was sugested 4 years ago but it is a really good idea

[daring cape]

Auto match system. If created, the system should prioritize pairing base on the team size (fewer drawfs) and the in game time (highest).

[hollow compass]

Caves get more complex and confusing to navigate with higher hazards

Perk designed to augment your other perks by doubling their efficiency (Field medic revives 60% faster and instant revives twice per game, Iron Will lasts 24 seconds, etc)

Maybe new warning called “Labyrinth” that makes caves very vertical or maze-like?

[mild summit]

an achievement for completing a mission drunk would be nice, in spanish "raja curao" would be hilarious

Certain randomized events should be automatically disabled for players under a certain level. I just played a game with 3 Greenbeards and we had a meteor fall, multiple smaller meteors fall and a random Dreadnaught spawn. They were very clueless and didnt know what to do and I just felt really bad as they called for the drop pod and just ran.

[quiet spoke]

An option to drop a loadout swap pod at the cost of at least 160 nitra or more? Can only swap loadout once per player.

"Hungry Lootbugs" modifier that reduces the spawn rate of Nitra and Gold, but greatly increases Nitra and Gold gained from popping lootbugs

[umbral urchin]

Satchel charge mod tree rework:
Remove the disarming mod, add it to the base tool.
Add two mods in tier 2:
•Antigravity casing, allowing for farther throw range.
•Armor stripping explosives, adding massive armor break capabilities.

Badges that show your previous season performance levels that are visible to everyone

[fallow hazel]

Adding to this: a section in the kpi terminal that displays your past season performance levels

[waxen cairn]

I think the more your drink a buff beer, say, Pots O Gold, the effect should be buffed.
Nothing major, but it would be funny to see dwarfs weigh the option of more buffs, but they have to go into a mission drunk.
I know leaf lovers exists as well as a few other options to remove to remove drunkenness', but I think it would be neat.

[winter python]

some of the lines for getting grabbed should get added to the Nemesis, since that's something that dwarves tend to respond to. Also, it should say friendly fire lines when shot

[viscid jungle]

Minigun overcloak that turns it into a 1-barrel light machine gun. (if something like that already exists please let me know, I'm relatively new to the game)
Pros:

1. Extreme accuracy
2. Significantly lower heating rate and faster overheat decrease
3. Severely more damage per shot
   Cons:
4. Extremely lower firing rate
5. Ammunition shortage
6. Need to reload

[versed glade]

More loadout icons

[remote wedge]

pretty sure this has been requested before, but here goes: skins / recolors for drills, ziplinegun, platform gun, turret, flaregun and grappling gun.
It always felt odd to me that we can customize so much yet those items are just stock... I wouldn't touch the granades though, no need for that

No idea if this has been suggested before but how about some sort of shooting-range room on the space rig where you can try out your new guns, mods and overclocks etc.? Either with target dummies (tranquilzed Glyphids?) or without would be fine. Just so we don't have to load into a new mission just to try out a tweak on our loadouts. It's not a big problem, but occasionally dwarves join my games just to test for a few mins then they leave again. Leaf Lovers I tell ya!

[latent hazel]

make bosco not auto-target a bet-c who isnt attacking yet

[plucky wigeon]

Achievement for tipping lloyd an alarming amount and maybe a lloyd themed bosco paintjob

[ripe pendant]

Make BOSCO automatically target weaker enemies so that he can actually kill stuff and not just bullet sponge into an oppressor's face

and maybe automatic rockets too? idk maybe there could be an upgrade called "improved AI" that makes this change and a couple others

[kind pecan]

heya! i'm not sure if this has been suggested before, but i will post it just in case it hasn't

is it possible to make the final screen after a mission controllable by each individual player? by that i mean if one person hits continue, it only continues for them. this is so everyone can look at the end stats at their own pace. i've noticed this being an issue because multiple times i run into other people clicking continue immediately after a mission and i don't get to finish reading stats and such. thank you regardless of if this happens or not, i appreciate you reading this!

[wild kettle]

Monochromatic paintjob (and possible future glowing paintjobs) should make eyes glow on GSG helmet

[latent hazel]

crassus dets should make other glyphids into golden statues that can be broken up for an amount of gold depending on how big the glyphid type is

[latent hazel]

lloyd should react if you salute facing him while holding a beer

[rancid isle]

There should be a hamburger hat; your choice of design.
My condiment themed driller needs this, you don't understand.

[wary seal]

Molly should automatically follow you in solo missions

[wild kettle]

Make the external hitbox of the drop pod more detailed/more accurate

[zinc escarp]

Could the Farmer achievement for riding a silicate harvester for 30 seconds be given while the player is on the silicate harvester instead of when they jump off of it? I stood on one for like 2 minutes before realizing that

[hollow compass]

An option to make the pickaxe function like DOOM’s chain saw (Getting a kill with it drops a bunch of ammo but reduces the amount gained from resupply pods, or they only refill 5-10% of ammo)

[hollow compass]

An introduction of other planets would be cool but idk how they’d implement it, especially when they said they wanted to keep it to just Hoxxes IV. New lore opportunities tho

[hollow compass]

If Steeve dies at any point in the mission, all Karl-related lines are replaced with Steeve. “FOR STEEVE!”

[wild kettle]

Give utility items (sentry guns, shield generators, C4, flare gun) “inspect” animations

[brisk canyon]

Hey, why don't we always have the drop pod drop out of the map and impossible to get to for the sake of "interesting and challenging gameplay?"

[silk hamlet]

pinging a naedocyte for bosco to focus should have him also prioritise nearby naedocytes instead of shooting just one jelly before running off, same for swarmers

[brisk canyon]

Add a mission history tab to your menu screen that includes endgame stats, and the map seed for easier access to bug reports.

[rain mountain]

if possible, maybe remove (projectile) collision on these organic thingies near dreadnought cocoons? they block gunfire and projectiles which can be kind of annoying with weapons like the PGL or the M1000

[hearty finch]

A certified graybeard assignment for reaching lvl 200

[tight mango]

Has health values for enemies in the bestiary been suggested before? Especially for the hazard levels

[stone lintel]

Add a way to favorite end of mission animations, so you can set it to random and it will select out of a pool of all the favorited animations

[rare cargo]

add an option in the general settings, when activated, only the leader of the group can call the landing capsule

[stone lintel]

A steeve memorial in the memorial hall, perhaps not an official statue placed by DRG but maybe something hidden there by a dwarf

Long live steeve

[craggy scroll]

Minor "suggestion" if we can even call it that. Minimize this very square slide in front of the Milspec Thunderhead? I'm talking about the large box in-between the two cannons that sticks out like a sore thumb.

[stone lintel]

Add voice lines for vaulting/jumping on teammates

[craggy scroll]

There's also this strange spaghetti structure on the Rival Tech Thunderhead

[willow viper]

HE-grenades remain one of the least popular Driller grenades, while the ability to cook the grenades was a step in the right direction. The problem remains however is that they still don't do anything that the other Driller weapons already do, which is grunt crowd control

What I suggest to make it more unique and more Driller like is to rename it to "Concentrated-Acid Grenade" which now deals part explosive damage but also corrosive damage, on top of dispersing into a few puddles of acid sludge in all directions on exploding.

It dealing corrosive damage makes it very efficient at taking out groups of Mactera in a quick burst with the right cook duration, which would be an attractive choice as normally Macteras are a tough enemy to take out for Drillers, and giving a new way to create sludge would synergize with flamethrower builds to light goo on fire

[tight mango]

Enemy stats values based on players/hazard level displayed on the bestiary. Along with their weakpoints and their critical modifiers.

[tribal chasm]

Double Barrel for the Boomstick ->
Solid Phosphorus Barrel (clean)
The boomstick fires once on trigger and then again when the trigger is released. This can be reload cancelled.

The pellets of the gun stick enemies with exploding minibombs that raise heat and light enemies on fire. Enemies killed by direct damage become firebombs themselves.

Should scale perfectly with Phosphorus Bullets and work well with armor break and blowthrough.

Less direct damage and an immense heat bonus.

[opal hatch]

Players Can Suggest Missions

Literally what it sounds like. Since the host is the only one who can select a mission, it would be nice if other players could "suggest" a mission in hopes that the host would pick it.

Maybe with a little pop-up tab or a marker on the mission that was suggested?

While a good host would typically do other people's assignments, some lobbies might not be doing assignments and someone might find a mission in a specific biome with minerals they may need/fun and useful mutators

This isn't really game changing but I think it would be handy for servers with 4 people just vibing and doing whatever sounds fun

[lone oar]

Option to make sprinting the default movement and walk only when pressing shift

[hearty finch]

Make the "tool of destruction" paintjob a bit darker for the silver parts. It looks a bit too shiny for its theme

[worldly coral]

Scratched metal is also too light

[heady cliff]

If i did main mission's task, i get it successful (at least for assignments) even if i dead

[timber stump]

framework for the drill will be pretty neat

[stone lintel]

New tiers for perks should be added, and next tier beastmaster should have TWO steeves

[timber stump]

ability to pet maggots

[deep swallow]

adding a thing at the end of a mission that could be a chance on a mission but where instead of the drop pod going up it the floor below the drop pod starts to crumble and u go into a dd looking screen but instead of the drop pod drilling u see it falling u hit the bottom and your radio stops working meaning that u can't hear mission control and all u hear is radio static but u end up in a big cave with a very BIG dreadnaught egg where u have to fight a queen dreadnaught u would have 2 options either "try" to fight it or RUN but u see a bunch of boscos working on the pod to try and fix it

[thin oar]

You should have a leaning technique or scope on sum guns. And to make things even more fun there should be a sliding technique

[hollow compass]

"Sprinkler" unstable overclock for driller's sludge pump that spawns a sprinkler, shooting sludge around the area but consumes double ammo to use

[near glacier]

new type of mission: lonely wolf
The last miner died on a mission to extract data from competitors. However, our radars picked up strange movements in those caves - probably a bosco, in whose memory there is data on the place of death of a dwarf who stole data on competitors. The purpose of the mission is to find the bosco hiding in fear in the depths of the caves, give him a new supply, find the data following the bosco, and pet the bosco, he tried very hard.

[hollow compass]

words are spelled less correctly with higher drunkeness

[lean willow]

Buffs to some of the non meta perks like Berserker and especially Beast Master. Everyone and their mom runs Iron Will and Dash and they're incredibly impactful. With lesser impact perks like these I feel like at the very LEAST we could reduce the cooldown a bit. 5 minutes per steeve is insane....or let us have up to 3 steeves/heal them when the cooldown comes off.

[hollow compass]

cave leech's attacks count as melee, therefore triggering thorns

[viscid jungle]

Maybe add a workshop for Steam, like Left for dead 2 has, to make modding the game easier?

[pale cloak]

A total glyphids killed counter somewhere on the space rig, one for individual players and one that tracks the amount killed by every dwarf who has ever played, similar to the one in they are billions

[ripe pendant]

make it so you can vault onto silicate harvesters they are so annoying when they get in the way

Anomaly where extra red sugar spawns

[solid hatch]

You can move heavy objects like aquarqs or compressed gold on the gunner's ziplines

[rare lily]

The idea of a new Overclocks came to my drunken head.
The first of them is the OC "Slug rounds". This is the OC for the shotgun(s), for example, now we have less spread and 1 pellet, but this is the damage scale of the number of pellets without OC. For example, with any upgrade we get 10 units of damage and 6 pellets, then e with OC will deal 60 units of damage in total. Also, if you improve the number of pellets, the damage will increase.
The second is "explosive bullets" also for shotgun. I see 2 types of this.

1. Like minelayer OC's which all knows.
2. Like drak-25 T4 upgrade which convert direct damage into AoE.
   Think this will be cool and fun.
   P.S. Sorry for any mistakes and my English in general, have a nise time!

[stiff grail]

It should be displayed that a lobby has Prevent late join character duplication on. I hate joining a lobby, finding out i cant play my class, then having to reload the whole thing.

[dusk vigil]

new voicelines for mission control, specifically if a swarm is on the way DURING a swarm(egg collection)
"oh, how delightful, now there are TWO blips heading towards you on the radar. have fun with that"

[native granite]

can the extraction pod please carve a bit more space around it, i always get stuck when trying to maneuver around it when it gets to close to a wall

[lunar garden]

New victory pose where the dwarf pulls a chunk of red sugar outta their pocket, throws it up into the air, and catches it in their mouth, saying one of the red sugar related lines afterwards.

[plucky wigeon]

Petting bosco.

[stone lintel]

L O R E

[hollow grail]

a "class changing" pod for if you wanna change classes during a mission because you need a GUNNER or other class instead. or just add that ability to the supply pod. no cosmetics just changing to the other class.

[cinder jetty]

I wish for improved Deck support. I the game doesn't like mixed inputs. If I for example try to use flickstick like in this config steam://controllerconfig/548430/2912764361, the input methods displayed on screen keep switching and switching to the support weapon will be harder for some reason. Input methods should change only on keyboard input

[tough raft]

This one is for the streamers.

Twitch integration

[paper geode]

unstoppable should also reduce slowdowns applied by enemies (e.g. shock, stun)

[latent hazel]

dirt blockades in Hollow Bough should be called something like 'dried sap' or 'congealed sap' to make their bright orange color more fitting

[hollow compass]

and if you drink blackout stout, they're full-on scrambled. Also all voice lines, from teammate or mission control, is replaced with them saying (out loud), "Blah blah blah"

[hollow compass]

like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-M25WZZjXA

[stoic tusk]

how about a negative anomaly where little to no red sugar spawns

[timber stump]

some drink that gives you extra nitra

[lunar garden]

More ways to irritate management and mission control

[stark sparrow]

Mud
Its a little random but it would add to the atmosphere of the caves. It would get all over the dwarves and bugs alike for the real spelunking feel. Maybe you could even cover yourself with it and bugs can’t see you like in predator but you can’t move or shoot at all to balance it.

Edit: I just now realized that the bugs don’t have thermal vision or even eyes for that matter so maybe the mud muffles the dwarves sounds and makes them not be able to be smelled idk 🤷‍♂️
Maybe in the future if water is added it could mix with dirt to make mud too

Maybe even a voice line like “Get to the drop pod!” In a bad impression of Arnold Schwarzenegger

[native granite]

a grenade that is just one of these little firework thingies that spin on the floor to scare enemies

or just some kind of sound based grenade to scare enemies away

(since we can assume sounds repel them; the powerstations make a lot of noise which i think is used to keep the bugs away)

[crude plover]

Situation-dependent revive barks. Imo this can really spice up the feeling of reward for clutch revives during swarms or those during escapes. Example 1 during swarm: "Stop lying around and aim that gun at that sea of teeth!" Example 2 during escape countdown: "Those mugs over at the bar ain't gonna drink itself, get up!"

[latent hazel]

make Thorns not have a cooldown at all

[faint cedar]

Some of the existing neutral-color hats, like the derby hat or the 16-tons grey flatcap, would look rad in Uniform color palettes. A uniform-color cowboy hat variant as well. There's a lot of good hat models that don't quite blend with a lot of outfit colors and making Uniform variants would help that a lot.

[latent hazel]

please for the love of god let the stubby/bosco electrify oppressors

[latent hazel]

shard diffractor should be able to ignite flammable gases, like the crspr

[hollow compass]

Partner victory poses post-mission, like a high five or fist bump

[weak path]

Give the bulk detonator a glock

[untold stratus]

This might be hard to explain, but I'd love an option to hide the front armor piece without needing to have a beard selected. I rock a spruce mustache on most of my dwarves and certain armors (MK IV gunner armor, I'm looking at you) block their view with the extra front piece of armor.

[rain star]

-a slider for aim assist/sticky aim so controller players can turn it off or adjust it because not everyone on controller needs it (both pc and console)

[latent hazel]

as a bonus, resupplying should also refill your throwable flares

[pale mountain]

You do know how pipelines can magically extend over 9 meters despite having a length limit of 9 (meters)?

and you know how rock cracker cables too have a length limit but they stop extending after hitting the limit?

tell me why pipelines cant just stop extending after hitting a 9 meter limit again?

(clearly not because there are 9 meters () and """9""" meters ()

[spiral sentinel]

add bug egg keeper?

[rose arrow]

can we get a damage counter @ the endscreen. together with the kills, mined and rev ?

[vagrant yew]

new environmental hazzard "giant worm habitat"
during the mission you encounter giant worms that dig through the earth and basically block of an area for a short period of time.
before they arrive they always give an aoe warning like meteors. the worm will leave a ball of compacted dirt which could hold resources.
if a dwarf cannot clear the area and gets eaten by the worm he will be grabbed and cannot be freed untill the worm leaves and then must be mined out of the ball of compacted dirt to be freed.

bad mockup of how it would play out during a mission

[wicked drum]

for future events, please don't have a constantly playing music in the space rig like in yuletide, or at least please give us the option to disable it without muting music entirely. it can become annoying quite quickly.

[rain mountain]

If possible, maybe have voicelines about Leaf Lovers Special instead of the usual 'I needed that' and 'Yeah!'. Perhaps have the dwarf whisper something along the lines of 'That was shameful.'

[wicked drum]

please have the time required for server timeout be significantly longer, or let us rejoin the host if we get disconnected. it's infuriating to see all of your mission progress gone with you getting absolutely nothing in return.

[dusk stratus]

For the record, I'm aware a lot of people don't like my suggestions, because they are with intent of making the game harder, one of my suggestions is giving the bulk detonator a ranged attack, it's too easy to kill them with a decent group. I would prefer if it could become a lot harder by giving it an advantage such as range.

[viral anvil]

Legacy deep dives basically the old ones that you can no longer play

[hollow grail]

if you make a 5th class can it be a trap master/hunter who can both lay traps/bait and tame more that 1 beast. it would make a bit more of a crowd control type class by i see great potential for it. mostly in swarmageddon type situations and such. this class is more of a bodyguard i guess. but if paired with any other it is very obvious how helpful it would be.

[pale mountain]

Medieval executioner hood cosmetic? (i dont know how its called properly)

[untold stratus]

The ability to "open" a solo game to the public while the game is in progress could be a nice addition. This would allow a player that changed their minds to play with others without losing the progress they've already made on a level.

[native granite]

we always get meteorites landing in our caves and i think its weird that they always land and never pass us

so i would like to suggest that they should pass us and if that were to be done, other things like drop pods or supply pods could pass us as well as mini event/world building

there is of course the problem that they would leave a hole
i think that problem could be solved by making a dust cloud around it once it reaches the ground and rubble being left behind after the dust settles so that there is no hole

[hearty finch]

Ability for Gunner to reclaim his ziplines back into the gun at the cost of taking down the one he reclaimed

make mineral prices fluctuate with like a 'mineral stock market'

[humble swan]

Add Bunny Bosco frame in upcoming Easter event.

[frank thicket]

There should be an accessibility option for tap to hold, for actions that require holding E like building uplinks. Other games have this setting and I don't understand why DRG doesn't with how much E holding you have to do

[hollow compass]

Low chance that kicking enough barrels into the launch bay angers mission control enough to come down and trigger the Mission Control boss fight

Slow down/speed up dance animations to match the tempo of the song playing

[stray roost]

A small quality of life addition here, can we try to get a deadline on the limited time assignments on the assignment screen? Finished all but one of the seasonal missions last night. Told myself, ah, it's late, I can finish it before work tomorrow. Woulda been nice to know it probably only had a few hours left.

[vale quartz]

Please give gunner 6 zip lines instead of 4

we will see this pretty girl?

Can we liven up the Station please? Maybe have bosco floating around with a broom or mop cleaning up the place? Have molly taking trash out somewhere perhaps?

New overclock idea for smart rifle: turret processer relay
After an incident involving a misplaced pair of spectacles, r&d has come up with a new way of improving your turret using the processing power from the LOK
gain the ability to lock onto turrets with the smart rifle, with each lock level increasing its targeting speed, damage, and fire rate
vastly increased targeting area
can no longer lock onto glyphids
vastly decreased number of lock ons(down to 3)
lockon consumes ammo over time

[hollow grail]

the ability to carry downed teammates out of dangerous areas like a enor pearl. sometimes we revive and then die again because its got lava ground we are surrounded by thorns. if we can just yeet a downed player towards a teammate who can safely revive them or just yeet them into the pod it will be cool.

[viscid jungle]

Different use for perk points. This has probably been suggested, but still. Like exchange them for cash/materials/overcloaks/cosmetics or whatever else ye can

[hollow compass]

The ability to put the same perk in all the slots to increase their effectiveness, with the obvious trade-off of not being able to use other perks

[hollow grail]

if a player leaves mid match and does not return does their minerals they carry disappear with them? if so please make a penalty for those who show up and then "steal" from those who choose to stay, if the people do not return after a small amount of time or if they join another match. failing objectives because of thieves just sucks. so if they do that return the minerals in the form of a "special lootbug" so we can get the minerals and plants and stuff they took back.

[wraith frost]

add more "whacky" overclocks, cryo cannon now shoots giant rolling snowballs, flamethrower drops mini volcanos... electric ziplines, and others im sure

[hollow grail]

can we customize BOSCO'S weapons? i wanna see flamethrowers on that thing!!!
