Engineer Suggestion: Replace the Warthog shotgun's turret whip upgrade with something more useful. As it stands, miner adjustments has no real competition as the best tier 5 upgrade, while most if not all of the upgrades at the other tiers can be combined into useful builds. Replacing turret whip with something like incendiary shells, a damage and/or accuracy increase, or maybe some sort of "charged shot" to give the shotgun increased utility against bulk detonators and dreadnoughts would increase build variety for the Warthog.

Instead of the bit cumbersome "Waypoint" the Scout Class could be fitted with a handful of Beacon Flares - Coloured flares (red blue purple) to mark points of interest - eg. Nitra and so on. They would have a burn time like the normal flares.

Right now I only have about 5 overclocks spread among as many weapons. But I can see that the UI has room for 16-20 for each weapon and keeping track of them all will become more difficult. As it is I have trouble remembering which weapons have overclocks at all because the UI doesn't say, I might go to put one on and find nothing.

So what I would suggest is add something to the UI that displays how many overclocks a weapon has. Something like this maybe:
https://i.imgur.com/IY6b1Rv.png

The icons could display the number of overclocks you have, the number of overclocks that exist (but you haven't found yet), and the currently selected overclock could have an additional border.

New Breath Cutter Overclock: Minelayer
Replaces the standard electic lines with an orb that sticks to targets or the ground.
After a very short delay, the orb releases a devastating spherical "cage" of electricity, growing in size and damaging anything in its path until it dissipates.
This drastic modification in the weapon's behavior reduces its fire rate and ammo, however.
The overclock would essentially replace the crowd control capabilities of the standard Breach Cutter with one that's more capable of doing concentrated damage upon a single point. Fantastic for bosses or otherwise large clusters of enemies.

I am writing through a Google translator, so I'm sorry if something is not entirely clear.
I played the Ghost Beetle mode and it seemed a little strange to me. First, does this game need mysticism? Secondly, it’s just not very convenient, since there is no way to influence the Beetle and it just haunts you all the time.
While I was lying, killed by him), and waited for me to be saved, I considered how to make the regime better and, it seems to me, I found a couple of interesting ideas.
1 - The beetle must be the boss, but with a lot of health and slow, and when health reaches a critical point, he must run away to heal.
2 - During the mission, the Beetle can abduct the lonely laggards and take it to some lair and immobilize it (for example, with a web). Based on this, it is logical to make it a giant spider, but that's up to you) The team will have to save a team member from the den.
3 - At the end of the mission, we must find some special weapon (for example, an exoskeleton) or some other way to kill the Beetle, so the players “let off steam”
Thank you if you read it to the end) I hope I could help you with something.

Small idea:

Discoverable Casks of ale.

They're small buffs, such as x% faster reload speed, x% movement speed buff, x% damage resist, or even a hallucinogen beer that you can sometimes rarely discover on mission. Bring it back, and you can buy a limited number of rounds.

Not sure how it would transfer between players, but... I just thought it'd be neat.

Random mission selector: you select Hazard level and press host private, host public, join or solo and game picks you random mission of those that are currently available.

And would be cool to have mission selector (it will be much more useful when more missions will be available with more regions): sorting out missions by cave length, complexity, positive/negative modifiers, crafting minerals and so on. So basically to be able to pick mission properties you want and see list of mission. For example I want to search for all 3 length missions or all 1 length missions with Croppa

Burst fire overclock for the Deepcore GK2 assault rifle.
Increases fire rate dramatically as well as adds a bit of damage, but reduces max ammo slightly and makes the weapon semi-auto.
It reduces the amount of ammo spent, while still firing multiple rounds down range, and hopefully into some poor glyphid bastard's awaiting gullet.

The grenade launcher's proximity grenade needs a serious buff. So far with using it, the damage buff is nearly nonexistant, not able to kill even a single mactera spawn effectively and even with max range the proximity grenade triggers at almost the edge of the explosion radius, renedering it pointless in most situations.

This week's normal deep dive has a point extract mission in a very large cave, I think the devs deliberately made the cave this way to play off the low oxygen mutator. However I'd just like to say "more of this please". Large caves for point extract is a blast!

Having more room feels more comfortable, there is a bigger focus on exploring the map and the logistics of transporting aquarqs over long distances. Larger maps would also allow more room for random generation instead of the small set of static maps that we currently have. Which isn't to say small maps are bad but PE definitely suffers from a lack of variety compared to the other modes.

So had an idea for new enemy, wanted to share.

LAVA LARVA

*Natural home: Magma Core (Possible variant in sandblasted corridors and salt pits)

*Description: New species found in hoxxes. It is lonng and thin like a caterpillar, has a circular mouth full of teeth that it uses to chew up molten rock that it uses for food and attack or defense. Has armored sections of hardened magma to protect itself. Can climb inclines/walls to a certain extent, but not ceilings. Mainly wants to bombard enemies from far away. Will run if approached, but will fight back if cornered.

*Abilities: 1. Shoots an arched projectile of molten rock, will leave a crater. Does not have the ability to do it that often and is inaccurate.
2. If cornered, will shoot a blast of broken molten rock at attacker like a shotgun.

*Weakpoints: Mouth and butt.

I know we have a lot of projectile enemies, but I thought it would be cool to have an inaccurate artillery-like enemy, but slow and inaccurate. Though if you get hit, it will hurt. While I was thinking about this, thought can this evolve into something else. So then I came up with:

FIRE MOTH

*Natural home: Magma core (also possible variants)

*Description: Giant moth that is bigger than a goo bomber, has colorful black, orange and red wings. Uses antenees to detect prey and lava it has ingested or magnesium dust from it's wings to hunt.

*Abilities: 1. Has a lava breath that does damage in a narrow aoe cone in front of it and leaves temporary burning ground.
2. Knocks magnesium dust off it's wings as it flies around in a circle, then ignites it and does an aoe blast for the area it has covered.

Weakpoint: Wings

Not a terribly unique creature, but also thought it might be cool.

so i was thinking... possibly for any future updates we could have 2 new weapons for all the classes? if its not being suggested already, but for the gunner i had an idea of a new heavy main weapon! the concept is basically a crossover from the engineers secondary lazer gun and then for some strange reason we decided to include that tech into a new heavy gun! it fires one super charged shot kind of like the engineers grenade launcher but its entirely electric or plasmic if you would like but anyway, it fires 1 shot every 1.5 sec's, the shot would have the same velocity drop like the grenade launcher but it can go farther, when the shot lands it can do from 10-25 damage based on upgrades and electric arking is entirlely up to the devs or well everything in this message is entirely up to the devs but anyway, the splash damage radious would be at least 2 meters. the length that the shot can travle would be at least up to 50 m before the plasma would die out so then that would add a damage penalty to shooting farther from your target but that can be turned into an up gradable solution. the name of this weapon can be entirely up to you devs but a name i thought of for it was "Stinger" . (i do not have a choice of what the gun would look like but i have a cool image from my imagination) when i think of this weapon being in the game i think of a slowly rotating two cannonbarreled beast!

Molly Mods - What if you could customize your MULE that you bring?:

Floodlights - Molly carries two huge floodlights on her sides, require manual activaton and deactivation
Pro: - Can fill a huge area with light, useful if you don't have a scout.
Con: - MULE can't move while the lights are active, not even if called.

PDW - Point Defense Weapon for Molly, acts like an unupgraded sentry gun in terms of damage and such.
Pro: - Molly will actively kite away from enemies while shooting at them, taking heat away from you
Con: - Enemies shot by Molly will target her (Boss mobs excepted), Molly will be disable upon too much damage, requiring reassembly

Shield Coils - A sized up version of the Gunner's shield generator, provides a larger and longer lasting protection than the Gunners.
Pro - Enemies that touch the shield will be shocked for light damage. Ranged attacks reflected.
Con - The shield locks you in, as well as enemies out, and will run from your stock of Nitra.

id really like to see more cosmetic options for the armor. we currently have so much control over our faces, with hair being divided up into 4 different categories (headwear, sideburns, moustache, beard), not to mention hair and skin color. But we are limited to like 5 different sets of full armor. It would be cool if we could customize specific parts of the armor, such as splitting up into body, arms, and legs! And then possibly adding more armor (maybe even specialized specific parts like Glyphid Hunter arms), and then maybe some sort of color selection. I know each class is mainly a different color to make them distinguishable from one another, but there can still be a way to add more individuality. Either set shaders/skins to unlock, or limited choices (such as Scout's main color being able to range from light blue to dark blue)

Here’s a suggestion that may be cool. Idk if it should be a mode/modifier or put in the game permanently or be associated with a certain hazard type but what if Bosco was destroyable by enemies and there was a timer for mission control to send a replacement or maybe you would get a new one in a resupply or could always just revive him in some way. Limited or not. I didn’t think too much through but thought it would be equally neat/annoying lmao. And the whole letting bosco mine the boolo caps and blooms and such and maybe even collecting and returning minerals when it mines them. Molly auto collecting chunks of minerals nearby on the ground would be cool too.

Suggestion for a M1000 Classic Overclock that I think is a cool idea. Pretty much modifies the weapon to be like a Martini-Henry.

Reduced to 1 magazine size
Slightly Reduced max ammo

Faster reload speed (Since you are reloading only one bullet)
Moderate Increase in Damage (Maybe 25% Increase, could also increase focus damage too)

Don't know if this would qualify as a Balanced Overclock or a Unstable one but either way i would definitely enjoy using this.

They wouldn't need to generate 'naturally,' only as part of the loot pool for cargo crates and Huuli Hoarders so you don't get shafted on certain materials if you find one of those rare loot sources in a biome that has those minerals

Reward for everyone who owns the game before release, Bets gun models, remember when everything looked super basic and blocky? Remember when the minigun had a heat percentage counter instead of a gauge? Wanted to reload a rifle just slap the mag and give it a pump.

shield gating on full shield
I think it would be nice if your personal shield could cancel 1 instance of damage when it breaks from full to zero in a single hit, with the exception of falldamage i guess (mb bulkd too?). And by that i mean to not allow the overflow damage go as hp dmg when shield goes poof. This way we can avoid being 1shot, avoid punishing players too hard for not hearing that single ninja exploder when you mine, avoid nuking teammates with 800dmg c4 and it will make macteras more bearable on haz5 for they are very hard to kite, they hit for more than your shield tanks and they melt your face.
Also it would make people decide between shield armor upgrades, do they get more effhp faster or do they fill up their shield to full for that effect quicker, atm its almost a nobrainer to take a faster recharge at 6s.
Also swarmers are going to be even more annoying by cancelling this effect all the time

New boss Glyphid Dreadnought Brood Nexus
Golden Brood Nexus that spawns golden arachnids size of Glyphid Grunts with behavior of Glyphid Swarmer: fast, jump at players, armored in front. Nexus can be killed only by destroying its eyes, eyes protected by self-healing armor like Dreadnought. Nexus is sleeping until player comes close or attacks it.
Currently bosses don't have any special rewards, and they should (except of mission bosses), like in any other game. Add rich veins of crafting materials and/or higher chance to get rare minerals near this boss Nexus.

New area for the space rig/reworks to an existing/upcoming area: Photo Studio.
It's a location where dwarves can pose for a picture with their preferred loadout and cosmetics, and assign that taken photo as their class icon in their HUD.
Better yet, there would be a greenscreen (or/along with some other backgrounds), so people can just take pictures and easily modify them for memes and other community content.
If it was somehow possible to take a transparent screenshot, that would likely work best with that.

Small quality of life improvement. Sometimes I put the last leg back onto a minimule and see a teammate walk up to the mule with the fourth leg and try to put it on. When they press E they drop the leg because it's not needed but when they press E again to start repairing they pick the leg up again. This results in a sort of "wiggle dance" as they repeatedly put down and pick up the leg until they finally back off and throw the leg far enough away that they can start repairing.

So my suggestion would be to have the fourth leg "attach" to the mule and disappear so that you can start repairing immediately and it doesn't get in the way.

Biome Specific mutations! (Could be a new tier of their own?)
Crystal Caverns: Crystalized Glyphids, some enemies have crystals growing on them! Chaining lightning from themselves and nearby electro-crystals.
Dense Biozone: Overgrown, a significantly larger amount of plant-based biohazards (ejector cactuses. spitballers, spike plants.. new ones?)
Fungus Bogs: Corrosive atmosphere, unlike shield disruption, the atmosphere here STINGS! You take very slight DoT to your health, but not shields.
Glacial Strata: Blizzard: Blizzards are significantly more common, and cold damage is doubled by enemies and hazards (and drillers).
Magma Core: Volcano: Hot Rock makes up a significantly larger portion of the terrain, and doubles the spawns of lava geysers and fire-vents.
Radioactive Exclusion Zone: Breach, some areas of the cave are exposed to the surface! That light is useful, but don't stand in it, it's extremely radioactive.
Salt Pits: Shellback Breeding Grounds: No glyphids dare tread here.. significant sightings of Q'ronar Shellbacks and Younglings seen in this area.
Sandblasted Corridors: Barren, significantly less nitra and red sugar found in this zone, hence the name.

Small suggestion, Change the name of the Lead Storm OC for the Lead Storm minigun. Its very confusing when trying to talk about it

A number of highly desired changes:

There's something janky going on with the pickup hitbox for minerals. If they spawn close to a player, they can't be picked up unless moved away from then into again. This has been present for a long time.
The loot bugs are getting really annoying. Their contents splatter across the terrain and it gets at times difficult to snatch up the minerals. Would prefer the "splat" velocity be decreased significantly or removed altogether.
Overheat mechanics are frustrating and not fun to deal with (primarily minigun and drills). The overheat rate should be reduced significantly, or allow for modding less overheat plus faster cooldown.

Suggestion to give players an incentive to help people finish Deep Dives after you completed them once already:
After you completed a week's (E)DD, each consecutive completion rewards you with one "mentorr point" or whatever you want to call it that gets tracked in your statistics and should probably be displayed in the Deep Dive terminal somewhere. Depending on the amount of mentor points you accumulated you get the ability to purchase a certain cosmetic from the shop. Let's call it the "Mentor's Beret". There are several tiers to this cosmetic that get unlocked after reaching a certain amount of points and that you have to buy consecutively - they also change in appearance sligthly. So the "New Mentor's Beret" requires 10 points to unlock, looks like a normal beret but features a single bronze star, whereas the "Elite Mentor's Beret" requires 100 points, the purchase of the previous tiers and features 2 golden stars for example.
Nothing fancy really, but maybe this will motivate some people to help randoms with their DDs.

Suggestion for droppod terrain/ pit below it:
Would it be possible to modify the droppod so that the 'drillpart' sticks out only 1 row of those 'fingers' and the rest clips into the terrain?

A Halloween idea, way too late for this year, but maybe next time:
The fate of the miners who lost their mini mules! Very rarely there'll be a dwarf standing around, lights out, facing a wall. The ingame communication and scanners of miners in a rather wide radius gets jammed, while only that strange dwarf calls out in a modulated, gurgling voice. When getting too close, the armor/body is revealed to be filled with the same bugs BET-C is, in its attack behaviour a Exploder filled with parasites. It drops a few minerals and a corrupted scanner tool that needs to be shot separately to reestablish communication.

My scout currently has 29 hats and most of them were bought back when I first started playing in order to get easy perk points from the cosmetics milestone.

If you discard a cosmetic it no longer appears in the wardrobe but if you want to get it back you can just buy it again from the shop for 0 credits since you already own it.

If Promotion costs are going to start scaling with Promotion level, there should be more rewards for Promoting to justify the cost; nothing game-changing, though. I'm envisioning a small boost to your 'pay grade' (credits/minerals rewarded) after each mission depending on either your blue level or your total Promotions. This way, new players get a tangible and worthwhile reason to play and promote all the characters due to the individually-scaling promotion costs, while veterans (who probably already have everything they want anyway) get to collect mounds of riches and rewards to tackle future end-game content with

Modular Grenades:

instead of separating the grenades into 3 distinct grenades, allow the creation of modular grenades, which allows it explosive type, trigger and characteristics, so that there's more flexibility with the grenades.

the classes would have access to a couple shared mods, such as grenade timers and basic small explosive, then each being given their own mods, with the grenade types that are currently provided being available as well.

This would allow the removal of frustrating effects that are part of the grenades such as a gas grenade bouncing away from where it was intended to go and falling into a random hole.

I don't think there's an exploder-specific voiceline for pinging it with the laser pointer. Or at least if there is, it doesn't play all the time? With the bulk detonator there's lines like (I'm paraphrasing from memory here) "get back! its unstable!" For teams that aren't using voice chat, it would be VERY useful to have an always-played suite of voicelines for the regular exploders: "get away, its an exploder!" "watch out, exploders incoming!" etc. etc. instead of the generic combat-oriented laser pointer voicelines. Please correct me if I'm wrong with this, but I've been playing a lot of exploder infestations lately and I feel like its the same lines being said whether I highlight a grunt or an exploder.

Some of the overclocks still need some tweaking. Engineer's Turret arc and Turret Discharge are both very cool but the downsides are far too hefty. Turret discharge halves the weapons already poor damage making the overclock unusable due to the fact engi lacks a proper side arm! Turret arc is not as bad but -120 rounds is a lot for a gimmick! Would make more sense to reduce the weapons mag size instead by 5 rounds or so.

Players will join a game and hit the button on the mule to send in the drop pod while you are finishing a mine/fighting a wave and get you killed and die themselves or you wont make it to the drop pod in time because you fought and survived.

Suggestion: Allow the engineers shotgun to have a overclock, that requires no more reloading, but the R key manually pumps the shotgun, reducing the rate of fire, buffing the damage, allowing the shotgun to be similar to a doom esc weapon.

As it stands right now, without direct communication on voice, or having a good sense of awareness for your teammates, the voice lines often flies over peoples head until it's too late.

Small tweak to trawlers. When trawlers take enough damage they are supposed to flip over and expose their weakspot. But I noticed that trawlers who are stunned are prevented from flipping over. The trawler will instead shake back and forth rapidly as if the flipping animation is repeatedly being canceled. This is most noticeable with the minigun but can also happen with any other weapons capable of stunning.

My suggestion would be to give trawlers stun immunity once they hit their damage threshold so that they properly roll onto their backs when wounded instead of glitching out.

Jury-Rigged Boomstick has always been garbage (at least as far as I have been playing). It needs a serious buff or at least a lot more ammo. It saddens me that I can have a whole pack of Glyphids in front if me and only one or two die and a few get damaged somewhat. Very underwhelming.

Ability to turn of enemy 'name plate' from marking, or have it turn off when we have a gun out and pointed toward that enemy, as sometimes those name plates obscure weak points (namely on wardens) at times, making them harder to hit, just because some one called out a high priority target (can also make eyes on spitballers/nexus harder to spot at longer ranges too)

A fix for Molly to not always follow players during large fights, such as swarms, dreadnaughts and bulks. Often it gets in the way of player movement and shots. There is zero reason for it to be constantly moving about uselessly. Especially if I tell it to sit somewhere in a corner, then a few seconds later when I'm not next to it it thinks it's a great idea to move all over the place with no goal in mind other than get me or my allies killed.

Instructional Posters dotted around the space rig or loading screens or something, with gameplay advice couched in very "PSA" styled language. Like reminding Scouts to use their flare gun: "You can't see them, but THEY can see YOU! Light the way for Deep Rock Galactic!" Or keeping an eye out for Cave Leeches: "The caves have danger in all directions! KEEP YOUR EYES UP!" Or encouraging everyone to make liberal use of their movement tools: "Your greatest enemy is the ground beneath you! Carve new paths and build new bridges for safety and productivity!" Just some neat flavor stuff with a practical use that fits with the theme of the game

Make a "fall" animation a little bit brutal instead laying - dwarf falls on his knees, then - on ground.
Also, after he falls, he could tries to get up by his own efforts, but fails every time(it's also just an animation).

In my opinion the idea of adding deep dives and elite deep dives has been a great concept. I looked forward to the update with a big smile. I know many players that only want to play Hazard 5 due to the back that anything below is simply not challenging enough. The truth is that this game does a great job at entertaining casual and semi-competitive players. This means that even players who take this game somewhat serious (in a competitive way) are also generally happy from what I see.

Now here comes the other side of what I think deep dives are missing. Or perhaps H5 is missing something, it could go both ways: for those players like me, that like extreme challenges vs extreme rewards/risk, there are not yet sufficient possibilities. Hazard 5 in 80% is not that much of a challenge, also keeping in mind that my teammates aren't kiting professionally and neither are they very co-op oriented most of the times. As a result, a fully premade team of extremely competitive players will have an easy task completing H5 mission. In addition, I must say that the elite dives are not at all challenging. Now I have written a lot of information, but what am I getting to, you might think? Well, please consider the following;

The longer the game exists, the more people there will be that know how to deal with high hazard levels. Furthermore, more and more dwarves are joining the game, seeing as it is still in development. I have a considerable amount of hours on this game and I have really been enjoying it. However, I truly believe that the community needs more options for when it comes to high level competitiveness.

I'd quite like something to do with the overclocks I keep getting that I'm not ever going to use? Maybe I dunno exchange it (permanently perhaps if they're set allotments?) for half the cost you'd need to craft it or something? I'm never ever going to use the M-1000 mod that makes the focus fire do less damage, I'd like to get something for the effort of doing those missions it took to get that reward.

reef swallow Oct 12, 2019, 7:10 PM

Most players don't see an incentive to help other players with deep dives after they finished it themselves. The risk-reward and time commitment just isn't very worth it. So as the week goes on less and less players will be doing deep dives, leaving anyone who didn't jumped at them immediatly after they become available with little option other than completing it solo.
So how about if, after completely finishing a deep dive, helping other players complete their own deep dives would give the assistant some goodies?
e.g. I finish stage 3 of a deep dive. If I join a team of two other players who haven't finished their deep dives yet if we successfully finish stage 3 I would receive two "rewards" for helping two players.
That way it's worth for those who already finished their deep dives to check if someone needs help with their deep dives, without encouraging players to spam the same deep dive all day to grind for xp and credits.

I've been testing out the Hyper Propellant mod for the PGL and I feel like it needs a buff, or some tweaking to the drawbacks. The reduced radius already nerfs the area damage to almost nothing, so in practice you will typically only damage one single enemy per grenade and that also requires you to achieve a direct hit. The reduced ammo also provides very little endurance in combat. Compared to a regular unmodded PGL this is practically useless on hazard 4-5 because you're trading the ability to wipe out whole groups of enemies for the ability to kill at most 5 individual enemies, probably less.

So my suggestion would be to change the drawbacks to further emphasize the direct damage aspect of this overclock. Instead of reducing ammunition by 40% (that just makes the weapon terrible) reduce AoE damage by 50% and leave the ammo the same as the base PGL. This turns the PGL into a direct fire "antitank" RPG sort of weapon and having 8-13 shots to work with makes it a more practical secondary weapon compared to 5-8.

I think the M1000 could use a matrix core that adds in a modeled scope on the gun that has a almost super focus/zoom and possibly an increase in damage the longer you are zoomed in, but the negatives are the inability to reload the clip until emptied like the M1 Garand, terrible hip fire accuracy, and tunnel vison when scoped (Like looking though a telescope pretty much) This would make the M1000 pretty much an actual sniper rifle but focusing on the fact that it needs to be used like one. Besides, who hip fires a sniper rifle?

Ok so I have promoted all my dwarves at least once and was losing interest, but I found I really enjoy playing with new players, teaching them stuff and getting a few laughs along the way. And it gave me an idea. Why isn’t there a “Trainer” mode for high lvl promoted characters? I’d give up my XP to help my team level up faster. Say it made it so you didn’t get XP but it gives a 10-20% hazard bonus to the mission.

How about each character having native buffs to certain items we dont normally have the ability to upgrade.

The scout could have an upgraded laser scanner with the ability to ping multiple locations for longer periods to help him mark ores and other high importance things for the team.

The driller could have an upgraded terrain scanner that shows way more information then the normal one, things like ore locations in a short radius, allowing him to steer his self made tunnels better.

The engineer could have a larger revive container, carrying a large thermos instead of a canteen, allowing him to revive team mates faster.

And the gunner could have a much more powerful flashlight to help him illuminate targets easier.

I've just got the game for my friends and I and have about 15 hours in so far, so I apologise if I am talking about things that are in the game but I just didn't experience yet. Overall, I've never been this engaged in a game that was multiplayer (Prey would be my singleplayer king).

Some comments: I did not enjoy the combat-heavy missions much. The exploration is top-notch, but the combat alone doesn't carry it for me. I think it's partially because of a lack of enemy reaction to being hit and enemies on the combat missions being "spongy". Spongy enemies are fine in exploration missions, but on the combative ones they should require a bit more cunning and strategy I think, because the environments are wide open and there isn't so much visual or platforming interest for players.
introduce a malevolent actor/competitor as a challenger competing for an objective in higher-level play?
Increase tension/scary atmosphere with a special enemy that feels more like a dangerous hunter that comes out of the walls, stalks and scares you alien isolation style. you can hurt it and it goes away but it will come back.
don't go to 3rd person view for the ground-worm tunneling and carrying you with it to help keep immersion. It's one of the few times I noted being forced to 3rd person (I would like default "downed" camera to be a first-person as well, personally, but still allow clicking to see the other video feeds)
Also, in general I kinda feel bad about coming in and killing things and pillaging 😦 I know that's what dwarves do, but maybe we could do something nice once in a while like plant some moss 😸 :

Simple suggestion:

Allow us to bring back unused nitra and be paid gold for it.

This would entice people to play smart, to not be wasteful with drops and ammo, and to try and save and conserve the nitra as much as possible.

If being paid gold for it would be too OP, it could be used as a new crafting material instead, which would fulfill the same concept here of trying to conserve it.

Also because of it being holloween and there being a hair of spookyness with the game already, why not give risk levels where your limited to either one flair or no flairs having to rely on scouts or team work to navigate.

In order to make balancing out the Breach Cutter a bit easier, I'd like to suggest that the weapon be given a 'Minimum Damage' mechanic. Where the first tic of contact with an enemy does a large chunk of damage (maybe somehwere between 75 and 100?) and then further tics of contact does chip damage as normal. (Of course to balance this, chip damage needs to be reduced considerably).

This makes the weapon more consistent and useful at any angle and speed as long as the player is hitting the target. Every shot becomes more consistent, and makes the weapon easier to balance to be competitive with the PGL.

So I've seen people mainly complaining with the dark morkite drink. I don't think I saw anything about plans to change it's effect or for people to stop whining about it. Considering that it's already the most expensive drink why not make it a 5% increase to minerals. Yes a bit worthless for deep dives but those are random anyways and can be 3 maps of worthless if no mining comes up. (Also question, am I the only one that prefers single missions to deep dives?)
Can we maybe earn our way to "clean" overclocks? Still have weak ones that aren't too risky, normal ones that give and take, and ones with tons of downsides with a good boon. But instead of the weapons staying like that a level system for the non clean boons? Slowly upgrade the negatives away on an over clock. (Or at the very very least tell us what the stat trade is vs saying little minor major. That feels rather user hostile.)
Also, can we get a correction to the info on the NUK17. something in the more info saying it combos with the scout's IFG. "Gives 30% more damage to enemies that are suffering a movement penalty" (unless the wiki is wrong.)
Finally just a cosmetic idea, but mission control lines coming in gargled every time you unearth or deposit an error cube. Perfect chance to leave a hidden message or two in the game.
I was going to ask about drinking boons as well (like getting an achievement, or a hazard type map, or just a danger boon but I see that's been asked a lot.)

PLEASE: you still havent reworked the Skills and perks as you once promised you would do. Those skills are still only a placeholder you cant really have your own build because there are only 5 useful perlks out of 40 and everyone picks the same. This is the only thing that keeps me from sinking more hours into this game and the fact that you didnt deliver on your promise no matter how small it was.

It's always exciting to see Sandsharks scramble the team with their unmatched speed and precision. What if there was a glyphid that shared some of these characteristics? It's armored, agile, and didn't work to kill dwarves, but instead bite them with a venom that leaves them in a condition most closely comparable to complete drunkenness. Just an idea for a new, rare enemy type to keep the team on their toes

A mission type including Mini-M.U.L.E.'s for players to use (therefore making salvage operations a bit more relatable).
Possible design for these missions:
-could be like point defense (Black Box style while the mules are performing some action)
-escort missions/payload style mission (same as above but the defense zone would be mobile)
-special gem/material recovery to assign to each mules
-a mission where you place mules to trigger a boss encounter or why not a chasing monster that can't be killed (like a Haunted Trawler or something else that slows down progress while on the move to the drop pod) while you're trying to return/fix the drop pod

Similar to the battery packs, some object could rarely spawn on the map and interacting with it could start some kind of event, like a drill that starts fracking for gold or some other material, but has a high amount of arachnid attraction as a challenge.

Magma Core Macteras now occasionally include Magma Macteras about 10-20% of the time.
-The little ones will spit fireballs that are slower but ignite your dwarf on contact for additional damage.
-The goo bombers spit firebombs that crater the area on impact with about half the radius of a Dreadnought fireball crater. They will also fall to the ground and explode violently if killed with Goo Sacs intact.
-Magma Grabbers will attempt to grab you as normal. However, instead of carrying you off, they will immobilize your dwarf for a few seconds before exploding, unless first shot off by another dwarf.

Platform gun overclock that makes the platforms shoot out at a higher velocity so you dont have to account for distance, maybe the drawbacks could be a magazine size reduction and reload time increase, or maybe modify it so it works like Scout's M1000 where you have to charge and let go of M1 to launch at a higher speed

Glyphid Stalker:

A black bug slightly smaller than a grunt, with a small body and 4 long, thin legs. They scurry around quickly and constantly make loud chittering noises. They spawn in groups of 15-35 They are passive in the dark, but when the area is lit up, they will pause for a moment, wait a second, then scream collectively and charge.

The main point of these bugs is to sometimes make whether or not to light up an area a decision. It would also be a really creepy experience working in the dark, and you know those things are all around you.

Give Molly an onboard AI voice that talks mad smack at the dwarves. Like when they call for her she can give them serious sass.

Is the direction the zipline sends you towards (when you first grab it) randomized? If so, I have a suggestion. Always have the zipline's initial direction it sends you in be to the end of the zipline you are farthest away from. More often than not, that is where you will want to go. It also adds predictability: if you know you are hopping onto the zipline closer to the end you want to go towards, you know you can quickly tap to change to that direction.

Deep dive suggestion: Put a program in place, so that it isn´t possible, that the same biome can ever be chosen twice.
Example: DD and EDD cant be both salt pits.
Example 2: If Last week was Salt pits and Glacial strata, the next weeks deep dive will not have those 2 biomes.
This should ensure that we wont have the current problem where we have a Sandblasted corridors biome for the third week in row and it will bring more variety.

Engineer Suggestion: A series of Overclocks for the platform gun that change the shape/orientation of the launched platforms. Examples:
Vertical Expansion: Makes it shoot a vertical disk instead of a horizontal one, much harder to stand on but good for making walls or sealing tunnels, reduces ammo.

Extra Large: Double size platforms but 1/3 ammo storage.

This game mechanic probably hasn't been tweaked in a while but you should increase the "minimum thickness" of terrain that glyphids can spawn from. It look and feels ridiculous when you see 20 glyphids claw their way out of an icicle the size of your leg.

This would also solve the issue of glyphids "digging" their way out of the mine head and it's metal mesh platforms. Or more rarely engineer platforms.

Flying enemy:
Kalimak Photovore
This creature resembles some strangely adorable cross between a moth and a bat and loves objects that give off light. Photovores nest near naturally-luminescent crystal deposits and have to constantly harvest more to keep their nests lit. They will snatch flares, both thrown and shot from a flare gun, to deposit near their nest, and will not otherwise interfere unless things get dark again.

Photovores are skittish but not overtly hostile. They will not steal flares the players are looking at, and attempt to stay out of line-of-sight of as many dwarves as possible. If you place a large number of fresh flares in their nest, they may even fight alongside you for a short time as thanks. If you damage them too much in a short amount of time, they will turn on you and stop trusting you. A Photovore colony will immediately descend on you if you deal a threshold of damage to the nest or kill one of their hatchlings.

One annoying thing I've run into when playing Driller is exploding geysers. If you drill up from underneath you might hit a geyser and instantly die with no warning. This is common on Point Extract when the mine head is on an elevated plateau.

So my suggestion would be to extend the geyser down into the ground and either create visible cracks and or recolour the ground beneath it (like swarmer nests). This would give you some idea that you are digging towards danger.

Make the shout hotkey ('X') call Bosco over to the player without dropping his payload, and then allow the player to HOLD 'X' to make Bosco drop his payload. This would make Aquar and Egg missions a lot less frustrating when Bosco just refuses to bring objects over to the player and instead taunts you with it, holding it just out of reach.

This would require the removal of the combo hotkey shout/scanner (I'm not sure anyone actually uses the scanner from this key).

I got a pretty positive response on the subreddit so I'll chuck it here too:
Allow the Breach Cutter to carve terrain. This would not be (very) useful as a long-range mining tool since you would just be getting a thin straight line of terrain destruction, wherever the plasma touched. However, with the new floating-terrain code, this would allow you to use the Breach Cutter to cut through crystals/pillars/etc to cut them down speedily.

After all, it is a modified mining tool.

An area filled with machinery and pipes which you can (accidently) break for them to drop slippery oil or any alien-substance we can pump from that damned planet, and it drips in the similair fashion like the goo bombers. Might be a slightly more arid type of biome, perhaps a dry sea sort of biome.

[[WARNING OIL HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND SLIPPERY: WE DO NOT ADVICE YOU SLIPPING INTO A FIERY DEATH BREAKING YOUR BONES INTO A PULP WHILST MELTING YOUR SKIN OFF]]

Archeological excavation site:

Bones. Fossils. Falling ribs penetrating dwards. Large skulls that can close their jaws on you if you don't watch where that beard is flapping about. Spiky skeletal structures that slow you and hurt perhaps.
Both a boreal and a sandy version with different kinds of fossils and skeletons.

[[WARNING; BONES MOVING ON THEM OWN ARE NOT A POSSIBILITY, HAUNTED BONES DO NOT EXIST, STOP COMPLAINING]]

Dead dwarfs land:

A destination so vile and filled with horrors, a greenbeard would wish he went out quick by a heart attack.
A dark grim biome, made out of scrap metal,ash and bones.
Dwarfen skeletons everywhere, in cocoons, half buried, half eaten and just limbs and beards everywhere. The glyphids wear the dwarfs beards as throphies, a truly horryifing sight. Many dwarf pods from countless of failed missions, broken mules and roscos (good look on that extraction mission, ya elf)

Dwarfs been here, Karl knows how long, driven out by unimaginable sized hordes.

What's going to eventually add to enough frustration to kill my desire to play this game, is the abundance of things that remove player agency. the rollers. the sand shark. the grabbers. the leeches. often with no warning, or chance to react. very little counter play to be had when things like their sounds don't always play. when they start chaining together, and there's literally nothing to do but wait until the game lets you play again, it's very frustrating. i'm not sure what a good solution be, maybe adding a "wiggle to escape" like the frozen state, but personally i'd like to see their entire removal from the game. i just feel it's poor design to remove player agency as a form of difficulty.

You need to give the Plasma Burster a minimum range/timer like all of the other grenades. Currently it's impact activated but it has a disturbing tendency to explode in your hand the moment you throw it, seemingly at random. Other players also appear to have a much bigger hitbox than they should because attempting to throw one through, over or just relatively nearby a teammate will also cause an immediate detonation.

All you have to do is make them like flame grenades, flame grenades will only activate on impact just like the plasma burster, but with a slight delay fuse that stops them from exploding immediately. This would let you reliably throw past nearby teammates. You could also throw a burster at the ground and run to clear the blast radius before it activates and destroys anything behind you, this is a common trick with the cluster and similar grenades but doesn't work with the (current) burster.

Change to Turret Whip
Rather than being an odd "Shoot the turret and it gets a power shot" that it currently is, instead make it a mod where the turret favours shooting the same target you shoot with your shotgun. This could include a small damage buff to the turret's damage on the same target you've shot. It still fits the mod name but makes it more intuitive and give you better control than the current "Target Prioritization" mod on the turret itself that would then be replaced with something else.

Not sure if this is possible or not but maybe you could add more than one ice texture so that if an enemy has glowing weakpoints they are still distinctly visible when frozen instead of being the same flat ice colour as everything else.

I say this because spam-freezing certain enemies sometimes does more harm than good. If you can't clearly see what you are shooting at you have a tendency to miss weakpoints and/or hit armour instead, which negates the benefit of the frozen damage multiplier.

you guys SRSLY need to introduce some natural achievements:

Skilled Veteran:
Acquire all perks

Overqualified Elder:
Acquire all perk points

This is my gun:
Acquire all weapons

There are many like it:
Acquire all overclocks

But this one is mine:
Acquire all weapons skins

I´m doing my part:
Acquire and finish your first IMU assignment

To hell with the first law:
Acquire all Bosco upgrades

Ps. all the cosmetics achievements excludes the gold skins for OBVIOUS reasons

Tie the strength of gravity to the depth of the mission. So deep missions have higher gravity and fall damage is more dangerous, while areas close to the surface are the Low Gravity modifier we have now. Potentially modify the fall damage perk to benefit use during deep dives and deep missions in general (That is currently 15% fall damage reduction could instead be anti gravity boots that lower your gravity by that amount instead. This could also just be a new perk entirely).

My opinion on fixing LURE as 100 hrs DRG Engineer, 500 hrs TF2 Engineer and 6 years in engineering college:
— Add 2 more Lures to total amount, from 4 to 6. Currently you need to throw at least 2 to lure majority of enemies around;
— Electrocute all enemies ~~in all games currently played~~ attacking it after duration or hp are over;
— Remove HP limit, make it just last for 20 sec;
— Make it activating on impact;
— Make hologram running in circles luring enemies in small area;
— ~~Add more dance moves~~
Not asking to add all of it, just one at least.

Modify Lethal Enemies so that, instead of magnifying damage dealt, it improves the effectiveness of special attacks.

Praetorian barf gets a wider cone of fire or a shorter recovery period,
Web/acidspitter debuffs last longer if they land.
Mactera Grabbers need to take additional damage before they call off their attack/drop a grabbed dwarf.
Wardens buff additional stats besides defense and health regen.

Stuff like that. Specifics are not set in stone and I just threw those out as examples. Basically any kind of ability that isn't just attacking in melee gets enhanced in some fashion, so that it's more threatening or more difficult to evade, without directly dealing more damage.

Potential Mutator: Dusty Caves

"Making those weapons "Nice and Oily" isn't such a good idea when it catches so much dirt."

Player responses:
"You gotta be kidding me!"
"Aghhh, NOT NOW!"
"What!? I just cleaned this!"
"Huh, I guess beer isn't good lube afterall."
"I'm jammed! Cover me!"
"Should have just brought a BOSCO..."
"Crap! MISFIRE!"
"Oh come on!"
"I'm NOT going down like KARL!"
"Better equipment? MY DWARFEN ARSE!"

--Chance for weaponry of all classes to potentially Malfunction/Jam after firing. Can be fixed by reloading.
(Engineer)
--Sentry Turrets must be rebuilt in order to clear Jam.
--Grenade Launcher fires off rounds that don't detonate, only dealing impact damage.
--Insect Repellant has a chance to ATTRACT enemies rather than repel for a short time, visibly gives off pheromones.
(Gunner)
--Minigun has a chance to spontaneously Overheat.
--Ziplines have a chance to break while a Miner is riding them.
--Shield Generators will short out early and have a longer cooldown.
(Scout)
--Grappling Hook will instead not fire and recharge again.
--GK2 and Zhukov automatic weapons have a chance to runaway and empty their magazines.
--M100 Eject's it's clip early, forcing a reload.
(Driller)
--Flamethrower ejects it's fuel canister regardless of fuel state, causing a pool of flames where the Driller stands.
--Satchel Charges have a chance to not detonate, results in distinct noise and different coloured light of inert charge.
--Drills have a chance to leak fuel when used, vastly increased fuel consumption for first 50%.

[Burn and Electrocution DOTs stack]
Right now, builds like electric SMG and burn FT are underwhelming because their direct damage builds are more reliable at killing bugs. This isn't an issue with the weapons but with how DOTs apply their damage. Using stubby as an example, you sacrifice direct damage to have a higher chance of triggering electrocution but once you achieve electrocution on a bug, electrocution damage is far too low to kill it in time, though oftentimes not even killing them.

If DOTs could stack, there are a few things that would happen:

This incentivizes stacking % chance mods to trigger more stacks faster with the goal to achieving multiple stacks and kill things faster, making % debuff builds more viable alongside their other builds.
This has potential synergy with certain mods, including;
a) Sticky flames slows - the longer bugs are slowed and stuck in flames, the more burns they take and eventually build enough stacks of burn to die.
b) Electric arc - the chance to trigger this effect increases as you build electrocution stacks on bugs, making beefy targets a favorite target to build stacks and spread electric discharges around it.
This allows multiple dwarves with the ability to burn or electrocute to contribute without being redundant.
There could be more focus on giving bugs resistances to those DOTs, making them even more distinct from each other and giving players the choice of deciding how they want to build their loadouts in response to those threats.

With the stack mechanic going forward, this could potentially open up even more ways to add new overclocks, mods, and weapons that make use of the stacking mechanic. Players would then be given more options with how they want to slaughter bugs and variety is fun. Rock and stone!

Not major but if possible give classes their unique buffs back/add new ones. Such as driller's that was lost during the pickaxe update, they had a pickaxe that needed 1 less swing to break terrain than the other classes etc. Engis could perhaps repair stuff a tad faster + refill PE turrets, not sure about gunner. As far as I'm aware right now it is the only the Scout/Gunner that has a unique buff over the other classes, with their "High-Intensity" thrown flare.

Would be nice to have the Veteran Depositor perk's special ability that grants damage reduction near Molly to work near the minehead. Makes sense right?
But in case you're already aiming for that leaflove emoji, how about that: the ability will be tied to the rocket itself (after all, that's where we deposit stuff), so that when it flies away, the damage reduction stops working for a little more challenge at the mission's end.

Suggestion: When picking a character in the lobby or when joining a mission, display all 4 of the player's characters posing in a line. This would be similar to the post battle screen but each dwarf would display the weapons you have equipped on them instead of being empty handed. The order of the dwarves and what poses they pick would be randomized.

Would be a nice way to see the cosmetics and other stuff you have unlocked on each of your classes.

I tried looking through the suggestion posts for a while, but most of the things involving cores were designs for new ones. This is more about a different way of acquiring them. Apologies if it's been suggested.

I'm coming to DRG from a long history with the Vermintide series, and there's a lot of overlap in gameplay between the two. There was a particular feature in their first title, which they ditched in the second, and is sorely missed, but maybe you guys could try something similar.

You already have weekly challenges, and I don't know if there are any plans to change how those work in the near future already. In Vermintide 1, there was a contract board. It rotated daily, and offered a random three weapons or hats, which would take a few days to a week of progress to earn, and daily missions which provided that progress. The higher quality the items or cosmetic, the more days it took.

Those details are somewhat unimportant. I'm bringing it up because it featured specific rewards, shown to the player to choose from, which rotates frequently. If I liked one character, and a cosmetic or weapon for them came up on the board, I could pick to work towards it.

The one thing that's mildly disappointed me about the new Deep Dives and Cores is that the rewards are randomized, and I can't focus on a specific weapon or character. Even if it was three choices every week, and you could only pick one, I'd rather a chance specifically for a Engineer overclock vs whatever the game currently picks randomly for me. Maybe even just selecting which character you want the Breach the Core assignment to apply to would be good enough.

Suggestions:

An overclock for the DBS which removes any pellets it would fire in exchange for increased concussive force range, damage, and a conversion of all damage to fire damage - like proper dragonbreath shells.
An overclock for the Bulldog which decreases damage but adds pellets like a shotgun (+2 to be realistic, more to be overkill), with the benefit of doing more damage overall but less damage per projectile. Perhaps with a bonus of stun if all three pellets hit the same target.

Extremely rare cosmetics for veteran dwarfs
For now there are 3 ways to show that you ~~have no life~~ are veteran dwarf: player level, class rank and 500 games won achievement for Steam. High player level, golden class rank and achievement take lot of time to complete, about 300-400 hours.
Suggestion is to add very expensive cosmetics that would take same amount of time to get. For example beard that costs (random number) 500k gold + 1k of each crafting mineral + 5 Alien Cubes + 50 perks points.
As first cosmetics for this I would suggest Rainbow Color 🏳️‍🌈 for beard, but it was already suggested few posts ago.

Maybe it's just my impression, but when you move forward you seem to have a little tilt forward which often leads to you seemingly being in range to get supplies or start reviving, but when you press the button and stop moving you immediately fall out of range and you spend time noticing it and having to move forward a bit and then start again. This is a bit annoying and sometimes your "iron will" becomes not enough because of this. Is it possible to lock you on to reloading or healing once you have pressed the button being in range (unless you drastically move out of range)?

Some suggestions on balance of some engineer overclocks.

-Hyper propellant needs a much higher damage bonus and less of an ammo decrease

Compact rounds on pgl loses out against both of the clean OCs, making the bonus +6 would counteract this

-the breach cutter OCS are all pretty bad but that maybe just because the weapon itself sucks

Well oiled machine is pretty pointless just because of how similar it is to refire booster, some other benefit would suit it better, either a small ammo increase or a small damage increase

Suggestion:
Mutator
When a player goes down, the minerals they were carrying get ejected from their inventory like a Loot Bug.

Definitely in the category of "annoying" and not "really difficult", so would probably have a relatively low XP bonus.

The title "Feeling Blue" could be both a more obvious Loot Bug reference as well as a more esoteric Sonic the Hedgehog reference. But, it's also not obvious what the mutator is at a glance. Something like "Holey Pockets" would be more obvious, but less fun.

The last tier of upgrades for the M1000 Classic should have something for normal firing instead of focused shots. As it stands, there doesn't seem to be much of a point to having a normal shot build, since you lose in ammo efficiency and your last tier of upgrades only affects focused shots.

There are descriptions to cosmetic items you buy in "Accessory shop" terminal. Sometimes they are even fun or interesting. But I noticed one sad thing: you lose them upon buying. Because "Employee wardrobe" terminal have no descriptions to cosmetic items. Is the idea of adding them worth mentioning?

And maybe "Employee wardrobe" terminal should be reworked completely, as it is hard and annoying to switch > 40 hats to find one particular.

Also I love the thing you did with floating earth. I just hope it can be pushed further to logical concluson: tech stuff like cargo crates or fuel cells should act similar to supply pods and drop on the floor. Still annoying to see them floating in the air (after Bulk or C4)

For Haunted missions, remove the ghost detonator and instead give...

Darkness damages the team if they spend enough time in unlit areas, similar to low O2 missions.
Scout's flare gun fires out normal-sized flares, instead of ones that cover entire swathes of cavern.
Molly and resupply pods have increased light radius.
Burnt-out flares, ziplines, platforms, driller holes, and partially mined veins will occasionally be found throughout the cave.
Client-side pings will occasionally happen from party members that don't exist. Things like cave leeches, mactera grabbers, downed dwarves, etc.
Firing into the darkness will occasionally proc a client-side friendly fire callout.
You'll occasionally get shot with minor friendly fire damage.
NPC "ghost" dwarves will occasionally appear offscreen and exist until you look at them, and then disappear once they're offscreen again. These ghosts will have different behaviors, from sitting there doing nothing except staring at you, to grappling offscreen (Scout), being in a downed state, firing off into the darkness at nothing, or getting carried away by a grabber/leech.
Even outside of salvage missions, a drop pod can be found somewhere in the cave.
The terrain scanner is all glitchy, making navigation more difficult and requiring more fiddling with the scanner to see where exactly the team's going.

Suggestion: when a modifier for a weapon modifies a weapon’s stat by a percentage, instead show us the actual value and then the new value, and have these values be standard across the board for all weapons so that we can compare the stats against various weapons. For instance, I don’t want to know that my base spread decreased by 30%, I want to know that it went from 10 to 7. And this is similar to the spread on a different weapon that is 7 without modifiers. Or if I know a certain weapon had a spread of 25, and I didn’t like how loose it was, I will know that when I unlock a new overclock that makes my weapon’s spread 25, that it will be equally as loose.

Aight, fucking love this game and been thinking about these suggestions for a while. Gonna take a little while to post all these out over time.

The Moon is a Geode
The moon is a massive geode, filled with incredibly rare and valuable minerals, even moreso then Hoxxes itself. Just one problem, it's crust is absurdly resiliant and is somehow self regenerating. To get through it, players would have to spend a particular resource...
The Error Cube.
The cubes, as it turns out, is terraforming technology for a silicate species of hostile aliens out of living minerals. The moon of hoxxes, being much smaller then the planet has already been completely consumed. Spending the cubes to improve a single-use drop pod with a 'cube tipped drill' allows the players to go on a timed, very difficult combat-centric mission where they raid the geode-moon for some truly impressive treasures. The Silicoids (the mineral aliens) are resiliant, powerful, and while less in number, are much more intelligent then the bugs. Players would have to fight their way through them, grab what they can, and get out before the hole seals up behind them as the crust regenerates.

#

Macteran Roe
As it turns out, when macteran eggs drie up they don't rot, they calcify and become absolutely beautiful pearls. A rarely appearing timed mission/a mission you must spend resources to go on to would be to escort a specialized mule back to the drop pod for extraction, protecting it from swarms of mactera. Think 'combat-centric payload mission', being too far from the mule and it stops dead in its tracks, easy prey for the acid-spitting 'Macteran Siegers' who burrow into the earth and become living mortars with acid strong enough to damage the usually unharmable mules. If the players succeed in escorting the mule, they are rewarded with a share of the dried eggs/pearls which they can spend on rare cosmetics, or other fun stuff.

Some tweaks to the trawlers Id like to see.

Make it so they can only move through soft terrain, like sand and compacted dirt, not slag or rock
Decrease the amount of damage they have to take before they start wriggling around, currently if you dont have a weapon that hits hard or fires quickly its a pain to stun them.
Its kinda hard to tell when they're going to grab you, you can see that they open up their mouth or something before nabbing you. But due to the sand, and the high speeds they're going at you got little room to do anything about it.
Alter their grabbing mechanic so they need to stay at the surface for a bit before they can grab you. Ive noticed they disappear under the sand, disappear completely, and suddenly come up behind you and grab you instantly.
They shouldnt be able to pass through shields. For something that moves so quickly, and a shield that should stop any enemy from coming in, this is a massive hinderance.

shifty merchants
Hiding away in a cargo hold there would be a goblin, kobold, or space alien who offers random cosmetics, rare upgrades, living quarter decorations, and other such things at bloated prices, or things exclusive to just him, all on a timer where he switches what he has available. Don't tell management. Additionally there could be a resturaunt attached to the bar. Meals would work differently then alcohol, being much stronger, but timed. Take too long in a mission and the buff would fade. There would be meals that would just take credits, bacon and eggs, roasted moles, granite smoothies, y'know, dwarfy foods. But the chef wants to test himself. Bring him rare ingredients from hoxxes (being rare flora and fauna you can capture for some extra effort, or things like extra booloo caps or apoca blooms) and he can make you some truly special meals.

defense missions
Dwarven labs deep underground need help. A wave-based defense mission to protect the labs from hordes of bugs, alternating from fighting them off, to looting the caves before returning to the lines to defend again. Eventually the team will be faced with the opportunity to assault what's attracting and breeding the bugs in the area, a horrible 'siege nexus', the players would be entrustef with a mighty explosive to attach to the nexus, and would need to fight their way too it, attach it, and run before it explodes. Longer missions would feature multiple siege nexuses. (Nexi?)

#

a villian
Why is hoxxes so horrible and wierd?
'Just a weird planet' everyone assumed. Nope. It's magic.
Dwarves don't trust magic, and it's outlawed in their empires, rightly so because it's absurdly dangerous. But hoxxes is home to a secretive alien cabal of druids, using the magics of life itself to create the perfect organisms. An entire planet turned into a testing grounds for bigger and meaner bugs. The druids don't hate the dwarves for invading though, it gives them something interesting to test their monsters on...
And something to eventually conquer.

mactera bomber should die when you pop both of its sacks, or at least get neutered, they can only use a really weak spit attack that deals 1 damage. better if they die tho, because they turn into tanks if you pop the both sacks. also they shouldnt make a mess on death if both sacks are popped.

Giant boss battle (nexus)
don’t know how hard it is to make but what if we change the last lvl of a (elite) deep dive in some giant boss battle where you would have to kill a giant nexus.
It would be a stationary bug with spitball infectors/cave leeches emerging from the nexus to shoot/grab the dwarfs those infectors/leeches have weak points in them to do damage to the nexus.(if not for the weak points there is no way to do damage to the nexus)
When ¼ of his hp is gone ground units(think grunts and glyphid’s) will appear from the nexus to kill the dwarfs at ½ of his hp a platoon of Q’ronar/nayaka will appear from the nexus, when they manage to take ¾ hp from the nexus flying units will spawn to rain hell upon the dwarfs. Then at 0 hp the nexus will explode dealing damage to everybody nearby (dwarf and bug) and out of his ashes spawns a dreadnought(maybe wait a bit to fake their safety) if the dreadnought dies they win( maybe let the dreadnought explode into minerals). After that the escape pot comes down And the dwarfs can go back to there beer.

Important notes:
Not a small room this need a big room to play in make some pillars for movement(zipline) or some other way to escape a lot of bugs
All units (ground/flying) don’t stop spawning until the nexus explode.
Ground and flying units will spawn nonstop(maybe short delay and groups of bugs but that can look like they come nonstop) but the platoons of Q’ronar/nayaka will come in waves to give the dwarf a chance.
Amount makes difficulty so you can let more bugs spawn at an elite dive
It wont have to be at the end of an elite dive but it seems the best place for an boss battle
That about it 😄

Suggestion for UI/Marked Targets
Sometimes when you fight particular enemies with a weakspot, it is very counterproductive when you have the whole team putting the laserpointer on target and marking it. Basically all the text elements that come from marking an enemy, conceal the enemy somewhat and makes it sometimes impossible to really aim for the weakspots (particularly Bulk-Exploders, as they tend to get marked the most).
So my suggestion is to make an option in UI, so that team markers on enemys could show: (a)everything or (b)only outline. If possible, let the settings for resources/objects/... stay the same. Along with that, i would also suggest to change opacity of the sphere when marking targets (tiny bit more transparent). And while at it would be pretty awesome if the marking sphere had a color depending on which class made the marking, like the small personal flares.
Thank you for considering, rock and stone!!1

More analytics for your player stats readable in your bunk. Stats are fun!

Biggest one being number of missions cleared with the Haunted/O2/Lethal mutators since that wasn't included with the mutators themselves. And matching perk milestones of course.

Besides that I'd also like to see stuff like:
Total damage dealt/healed/taken. Total downs. Total revives. Total minerals collected of each type. Total missions cleared with each weapon type. Total weapon skins/OCs collected. Total number of each enemy killed. Best ratio of points/barrels kicked in the hoop minigame. ~~Barrels kicked into the drop pod/launch chute. Gravity recalibrations commenced. Beers drank. Leaf Lovers disgracefully quaffed.~~

All separated by class of course.

Laser Pointer option suggestion for UI clarity: Ability to cycle between things for tags as 'all, only (mineable ore/enemy/terrain), exclude (mineable ore/enemy/terrain) so you can turn off those big, blob tags, which on some enemies can obscure their weakpoints if your going for precision damage

A new mission type or mode: Mass Extermination

Dwarves are sent down into a large cavern with a rig similar to the one for "Point Extraction" with the goal to hold their ground for as long as possible.
As time goes on the amount of enemies as well as types would show up:
(An example of how the different tiers would look like)
Tier 1-3 Swarmers, Grunts and Guards
Tier 3-5 Slashers, Acid/Web Spitters and Exploders
Tier 5-10 Wardens, Slashers, Exploders, Menaces, Praetorians (Bulk Detonator and Dreadnought as a boss perhaps)
A single Supply Pod would be granted after each Tier completed, as well as nitra found in the cave.

The team would be awarded with gold for each wave survived, as well as minerals for fulfilling quotas (Kill 3 Dreadnoughts, 25 Praetorians, etc.)
-Mission length could account for the number of waves needed to extract from the mission
-Cave Complexity could account for the space given to the dwarves to fend for themselves.
-New enemy type could be added as a boss (an aggressive version of the Huuli Hoarder perhaps) , granting the team nitra and resources.

I think with changes to this idea, accounting for changes in future updates would provide a fun mode for the players to test themselves and compete with other groups of dwarves on a leaderboard.

Weapon suggestion:
Driller - Neurotoxin Chem-thrower (Toxin Spewer, Gas Sprayer?)

Since Driller's weapons are all some sort of "projection" weapon, and he already has access to a neurotoxin grenade, a weapon of similar design might make sense.

The flamethrower has a relatively strong DoT effect, the cryo cannon does CC - so why not a middle ground that does a bit of both?

It would have roughly the same range as the flamethrower/cryocannon, and spray the orange gas produced by the neurotoxin grenades. The gas would linger for a few moments before dissipating (a mod could increase the amount of time it lingers for) and enemies caught within the lingering gas cloud would be slowed and subjected to the Neurotoxin debuff.

Gas clouds would be created either at point of beam contact with a surface/enemy, or at maximum beam range, lingering for a couple seconds before dissipating, similar to flamethrower 'sticky flames' but not requiring a surface to stick to. Aliens should not avoid the clouds like they do the flames.

More 'saturation' in an area should quicken the onset of the slow and DoT effects, incentivizing players to do more than simply tap-fire at enemies to save ammo.

Pros:

Heavy CC
Strong DoT
No friendly fire (toxin only affects aliens)
Reasonable ammo economy

Cons:

Gas is visually obstructive
Little to no direct damage (made up for by strong DoT)

Such a weapon would emphasize team play and put a Driller using it into a strong support role.

Potential mods include:

Generics (increase ammo, mag size, reload speed, etc)
Increased range
Longer cloud lingering
Stronger DoT
Stronger/quicker-acting slow effect
Less obstructive (i.e. more transparent) gas
Stun effect (if alien stays in a cloud too long)
Potential Unstable OC - Viral Agent:
Fear effect + spreading "toxin" debuff (turning the 'neurotoxin' into a viral agent that spreads between nearby aliens, downsides would be lower ammo capacity, perhaps shorter range or weaker DoT)

Turret Emplacement the dwarves can call down at a high cost of Nitra. Identical to the ones used in Point Extraction with limited ammo. They aren't incredibly powerful and would allow use of the sometimes excessive amounts of Nitra on missions. If it were double the cost of Ammo drops you'd be sacrificing a full set of ammo for 4 players for 1 turret.

A new branch of upgrades for the armor rig: boots.

Hiking boots: severly negated or removed goo/snow/weather movement penalties, increased friction on ice. (Reduced/no damage from hot rocks?)
Stomping boots: transfers fall damage to an enemy you land on if it is medium or larger. If an enemy is killed, the remaining fall damage is dealt to you. Glyphid swarmers are killed regardless of fall damage, but they also negate none of it. Sprinting through glyphid swarmers causes them to be stunned and/or die, depending on how close they are to being directly in front of you.
Sneakers: increased movement speed and jump height.

Suggestion is to change haunted mutator:

Or replace Detonator with random creep: swarmer, glyphid, praetorian or ~~sand worm~~ Detonator. In this case would need balance speed and damage.

Weapon suggestions
Fix the way ammunition is listed for Zhukovs and Minigun. There's a lot of confusion when explaining to people that both consume two ammo per bullet and your ammo capacity and fire rate are half of what's listed on either weapon (especially when this causes oddities like having 25 combined ammo capacity between two identical guns regarding the Zhukovs).
BC could stand to have a thicker beam at base to be more consistent, especially with uneven terrain.
Stubby, in my opinion, could use +1 damage, +30 ammo, its spread with Floating Barrel being its base spread, and Floating Barrel granting -recoil instead.
BRT needs... something. I don't know specifically what. Both Gunner primaries melt hordes with ease. It has no area to really be of benefit to Minigun setups, Bulldog will (and should) always be better at raw single-target damage, which is especially useful to Autocannon setups. Some utility would be cool with it, the Gunner's EPC, but I don't know what or how.

So I heard someone mention an idea for a turf war, but they mentioned it be between two or more Glyphid Dreadnaughts. While I can see the possibility of two Glyphids getting territorial, I think there's more room to improve on the type's of enemies there are. We have the Naedocyte Breeder and Shocker, as well as some passive Naedocyte Float Lift's, and the Shellbacks are only 2, but I feel like there could be a few more different families of monsters and enemies on the map.
So, the territory fight, where you have an objective either in the territories, or you have an objective, and a mutator on the level causes this territory fight (I think the mutator would be excellent, because then you can fit specific categories of enemies to certain maps) would make the map sort of Elimination shaped, where you start in the middle, and branch out. The further you go, the more enemies of that type, and there can be a big baddie for each group's territory that can either be killed, or kited into one of the other territories, making a turf war happen. I think the turf war is a great idea, but I feel like it could also be an opportunity to add even more stronger/unique enemies of the other monster families.

I'm told that DRG now rejects server join attempts if your ping is too high to play on the selected server. But the game doesn't give you an indication that this is the problem, it will simply reject you instantly when you try to join a lobby. This seems a lot like a game bug if you don't know what's going on.

So maybe add a more verbose message to failed join attempts and/or display a visible ping for every server.

How about armor overclocks?
(OR - a second variant that you can get)

Engineer:

Extra shield charge - allows you to instantly restore the charge of the shield. Long cool down time (I mean recovery).
OR
Tesla-discharge - allows you to release a shock wave (powerful, and not like the destruction of the shield), which will stun enemies nearby for a while.

Gunner:

The Tower Shield system - slightly increases the protection of allies nearby, like a full-upgraded Veteran Depositor perk when you are standing nearby M.U.L.E.
OR
Shield Overcharge - increases the margin of safety of the shield by 0.5 times (150% of the charge), but reduces the speed of its recovery.

Scout:

Modified boots (something similar was offered a little earlier) - increase the speed of running and the height of the jump. Significantly reduce fall damage.
OR
Reactive boots - allow you to instantly move to the end of the hook or zip line. Average cool down time.

Driller:

Cargo exoskeleton system - allows you to carry twice as many resources, as well as make a short jerk with a heavy load (such an aquarq). The jerk has an average cool down time.
OR
Drilling exoskeleton system - allows you to make a breakthrough with drills in the current direction. It consumes 5 units of fuel, but it drills immediately at 10 meters. The jerk towards the enemies causes them serious damage (destroys a swarmers, a few grunts), and also stuns large targets for a couple of seconds (something like Big Daddy’s jerk from Bioshock). It has a long cool down time.

Most importantly, they are very rare. If you wish, you can bind them to the promotions, and after the promotion, give a special assignment to open them. May be you will suggest some better overclocks. Anyway, the main idea is rare overclocking modules for armor.

PGL OC: +3 Mag Size, +100% Ammo, +4 Rate of Fire, -50% Splash Radius

alpine patrol Nov 2, 2019, 5:24 PM

Proposed Stubby mods changes:

-Move the tier 1 ammo mod to tier 2
-Move the tier 2 fire rate mod to tier 1
-Switch places with tier 2 magazine size mod and tier 4 electric damage mod
-Buff the magazine size mod to be competitive with T4 mods

The ammo mod in T1 sharing a tier with a damage mod or an electrocution chance mod ensures that it is very rarely taken as both mods are essential in either electric or damage builds. This is also partly because the other ammo mod is in T3 which is only competing with 1 damage mod leading to it being more likely to be picked.
With T2 mods, someone could decide between accuracy, ammo, and electric damage leading to being less of a chokepoint in build diversity as accuracy is universally taken over mag size and fire rate

Proposed further Stubby changes:

-Conductive bullets in T5 to apply to the electric damage bonus listed on stubby's card
-A baseline decrease in bloom rate so full auto is feasible at midrange

Maybe a zone that is inside a massive insect hive? Kind of like mud dauber nests on a massive or gigantic ant/termite nests. You could have worker drones that attempts to slowly build nests that spawn enemies that attack you.

On a potentially separate note, a more artillery style insect that spawns in huge caves, and keeps extreme range and does huge terrain damage. Potentially have it burrow into the ground so it's not as easy to snipe. It would make it so you can't just entrench yourself at the edge of a cavern and try to pick everything off from relative safety. Keep you on the move, dodging projectiles to close the distance and take it out up close.

To balance it, you could also baited into attacking other enemies, stand in front of other large, slow insects or those stationary spitter nests, and jump out of the way as its fires so it hits them instead.

Engineer’s. LMG turret needs some serious work on it’s upgrade balance. Lmg mk2 defender is just better than any other build. There is currently 0 reason to use Gemini as they run out of ammo way to fast. Increasing the total ammo for Gemini and reducing their build time by 0.5 seconds would probably make them worth it

Having searched this channel and not having found this suggestion before, I'm resubmitting:

If a player attempts to join a Deep Dive and gets bounced out because it started, the game should not teleport the player all the back to the starting spawn/sleeping bay. This necessitates walking all the way across the Space Rig to try to join another Deep Dive.

Sorry if this has been suggested before - I think putting the unions into a little more play in-game would be kind of nice, something to give players who've reached the top as it were something else to do once the Deep Dives and Core Hunts are done. Something like Semi-Weekly Union Missions that have a slightly higher base difficulty, perhaps with special modifiers since the mission is run by the union rather than the DGR organization that can count to the monthly goal whilst also giving some higher rewards than regular missions.

P: So, i have a Problem with the gunner.
I turn the weapon details off to have less on the screen, and so I can utilise the guns unique ammo counter. but when it comes to the shield, I have trouble remembering how many I have on my person, as there is no indicator.
S: My Suggestion is that the shield has its own ammo counter in the form of a hologram that appears on the front of the shield, emanating from where the blue gem is, displaying a number of how many shields you have in inventory.

It's not a secret that DRG was partly inspired by TF2.
For those who don't know: TF2 was less successful copy of Overwatch, currently abandoned as small developer company didn't have resources to support it anylonger.
So it's time to implement best mechanic from Team Fortress 2 to DRG, mechanic that made that game popular.
Suggestion is to add new cosmetic slot to character customization — unusual effects. Unlike in TF2 let unusual effects be picked regardless of hat you currently wearing, just a separate slot. Beer cups or lootbugs circling around, generic steam or stars...

And while we are at it: add more long-term goals to work towards. Add much more expensive new cosmetics.

hyper propellant idea: This OC has had a lot of suggestions on it being buffed but none suggest how it should be buffed. Here is an idea to really make it unique.

Allow the round to have superblowthrough like qualities so the shot can pass through multiple targets like an armour piercing shell, then also allow the shell to pass through rock making a small hole as it does. A blast like AOE around the projectile killing smaller enemies as it flies would also be cool. Just make the nade feel like a proper AP tank shell

Unnecessarily complicated mission type idea: Time Mining
As a cave is about to collapse there's a chance for extremely valuable minerals to emerge, that's where you come in. We've provided you with time traveling apparatuses, since the caves will collapse within eight to ten minutes of your arrival (the drop pod greatly weakening the already collapsing cave), these devices will automatically activate after the countdown reaches zero, although be wary for it will only work once. Also the drop pod will be staying up until the last 10 seconds and as is DRG tradition, the drop pod will only depart once the objective is complete.
This is how a mission should ideally play out: dwarves land > mine the first few caves > the cave is about to collapse > time reverts, original dwarves stay in the same area while everything behind them resets > continue with the mission > complete the objective > make it back to the drop pod

Isn't time traveling technology very expensive?
Yes, but management's original plan was to send dwarves in without anything. You can thank the union for the devices, of course that comes with an increase to the objective to make up for the apparatuses themselves

Okay, but what about the MULE?
The team's MULE has been fitted with a different variation of the device, don't worry your MULE calls wont interfere with the past's MULE

Are the bugs really stupid enough to stay in a collapsing cave?
They can dig, remember? Cave collapses are almost routine for these buggers

Will anything happen if we look into our past selves?
Nothing more than potential existential crisis. Your past selves live within another timeline, they will be unable to see or interact with you, but thanks to the ever-questionable anomalies of Hoxxes their terrain modification will matter

Isn't this just an overcomplicated morkite mission with a time limit?
Yes. Hey, I warned you at the 'title' area

Wouldn't this be a nightmare to implement?
Very likely!

Mission modifier - lost elf. There's an unkillable elf with a special elf power shield that wanders the caves, and tags along with all dwarves he finds. He is completely oblivious to his surroundings, ignored by bugs, and treats all kicks/shots/traps as mere jokes. He's constantly getting in front of you as you're trying to mine, reads you lectures on preserving the wildlife as he soaks up your bullets during a swarm, and he attracts bulks/dreadnoughts. And to make it worse, the escape pod won't leave with an elf on board, so you have to find a way to ditch him on your way out.
He also tries to grab all the boolo caps/flowers/fossils before you, and if he does, you have to QTE grab it out of his arms. And he never shuts up.

3 new upgrades for the gunners zipline gun (the idea here is that these are on the same row so you can only take one so as to retain balance but make the zipline gun more versatile)

Dual Anchor: pretty much, using the zipline gun you mark two points and it launches the zipline out to span across those locations (increases the length of the zipline cable by 10 as well)

Hydra cable: allows you to fire the zipline gun FROM the zipline and it would connect to the existing line allowing you to go to the other spot by pressing left or right (depending on the direction you are coming from)

Recover: allows you to pick up the ziplines and return them to your ammo pool (much like how the driller can diffuse his charges and pick them back up)

I don't know how good these ideas are or if anyone would really like them I just think that something like these would be rather nice to put in if possible.

Just in case you didn't notice the stats for drill upgrades are still borked. They were broken in the previous patch but now the broken-ness is slightly different. For instance the stock drill speed is 2, if I add an upgrade that increases the drill speed to 3, it will still be displayed as 2. If I add both drill speed upgrades for a total of 4, it will display as 3. The bonuses to movement speed while drilling are also wrong/missing.

hi, a new weapon was added to the game and it makes me very happy as a player, but why not add

class tools! (eg)
To the driller - a mineral scanner at great depths (and not only), and in the game, adding resources deeper than usual would have become even more diverse in terms of collection!
Chainsaw engineer (why?) What kind of chainsaw is Karl !!! but one that would allow the engineer to get out of the brewed rooms1, to tank the horde 2. that the engineer’s battery had self-charging ..
Shooter MAYAK causing a capsule with a shotgun with selective supply of ammunition (semi-automatic) with a good distance and damage having a grenade launcher with incendiary charges, triggering:
1-from touch with a bug
2-if touch failed timer 5 seconds
or
Shield Charger - having its own ammunition, which would recharge the main dwarf shields and strengthen them by 25 percent of the standard value at maximum charge.
Scout - powerful shoulder light and improved marker

it would be great if you added weapons in black boxes that were sent to the hawksess for testing but were lost, the team finds such a box, repairs it and there falls 1 out of 3 types of experimental weapons randomly (weapons that have a limited supply and not configured in the calculation before the mission) -title for example - Father of Glyphids! or King of Glyphids !!!

Add more utility options, specifically (as an engineer main) more turret variety. One idea I had was a healing turret, so that way you can choose between a damage turret or a healing turret. The turret would heal a reasonable amount over time within a certain area. Example of an upgrade might be lowering range of the turret while raising the intensity of the regeneration, or vice versa. Could also have a circular range. You would select and upgrade it in the equipment terminal.

Neurotoxin grenades should act like smoke grenades and provide visual cover in addition to the existing effects. Dwarves inside the cloud can't be targeted by ranged attacks unless enemies close to within a few metres. The cloud also blocks line of sight for enemies on the other side, even if you are not inside the cloud.

I feel that this buff is necessary because the loss of vision from toxin grenades tends to hurt the party more than the benefits you gain from damage/debuff effects. Either you are inside the cloud and can't see out, or enemies are hidden inside the smoke cloud and can't be effectively targeted. So it would be fair if the limited vision applied to the bugs too.

Overclock Suggestion: Hipster for M1000 - How about changing it to this: +400% spread recovery speed, +25 ammo, x0 focus shot damage (Meaning, focus shot deals the same damage as quickshot). With that, it would have a bunch less total damage compared to, say, a focus build with the Minimal Clips clean overclock, but gains fighting speed and a new playstyle is enabled. (Note: Its current values are +400% spread recovery speed and -15 damage, which is just useless).

Alternatively, the effects could be: +400% spread recovery speed, +15 ammo, +15 damage, x0 focus shot damage. Then I'd argue it should maybe be considered an Unstable overclock instead?

Weapon that inflict heat and cold cancel each other out rather than stacking- IE, you can't freeze or set someone on fire at the same time. This makes logical sense, but this means certain loadouts have disynergy with each other. Perhaps there should be a mechanic where inflicitng cold on a hot target and vice versa deals some degree of bonus damage (the concept being the extremes of tempature violently reacting) to compensate?

Other than getting machine events and the other endgame stuff ready I think you should put a very high priority on making disconnects less of a problem. I was doing the EDD last night and a teammate of mine disconnected on stage 3 right after we had activated the fuel cells. He was unable to rejoin the game automatically, and even after adding us as friends it claimed that we we're not in a mission and wouldn't let him rejoin the EDD. We were unable to wait for him either because the drop pod arrives on a timer as soon as the fuel cells are fully activated.

So I have a couple of suggestions in that regard:

Players who disconnect should attempt to reconnect automatically to the host without any input needed by the player. The game already has a feature like this if the game thinks you quit a game "suddenly" but it has never worked in my experience, so it could use some improvement.
If the player disconnected because the game crashed have it try to rejoin their previous host automatically when they reboot the game.
In case the automatic reconnect doesn't work there should be some sort of "log" feature that lists recent lobbies you have been in and allows you to reconnect to them manually if something goes wrong. This could be made a feature of the mission select screen, or you could add an additional console in the player's room (where they respawn after a disconnect).
If you are hosting and a player disconnects there could be an option to automatically set the game to private for a few minutes to give them a chance to return before the matchmaker attempts to fill that slot.

The incendiary upgrade for the PGL could use a buff. I have used it extensively and I can say with some authority that it is simply worse than the stock PGL, even against targets that are weak to fire. The addition of the heat effect doesn't make up for the halved explosive damage. Enemies will not ignite unless they are very close to the point of impact and large enemies won't ignite at all without multiple hits. Even if an enemy does ignite the burn damage they take doesn't equal the damage you lose by taking the upgrade in the first place. So the weapon ends up being LESS effective against all targets, a blanket nerf compared to the stock PGL or the armour break upgrade at the same tier.

Here's some ideas on how to fix it:

Option 1: Increase the heat generated by the grenade so that it reliably ignites enemies out to the edge of the explosion radius. (Larger enemies would still require a direct hit) This makes the upgrade more consistent because if it fails to ignite the target it has no extra effect and you are using half-strength grenades for no reason. This would also synergize very well with proximity fuse because grenades would still ignite enemies at the edge of the blast even if they typically explode further away from the target.

In addition to this the incendiary upgrade should not reduce direct impact damage, only area damage. This makes it more practical to pair the incendiary and spiky grenade upgrades as the former will no longer nerf the latter.

Option 2: Instead of reducing the grenade's damage and adding heat to replace it, directly convert a portion of explosive damage to fire type damage instead . This would make the grenade more effective against enemies weak to fire damage without being less effective against normal enemies. Grenades would still ignite enemies with enough hits, though typically just the larger ones as small enemies would die in the blast.

More unique forms of debuffs for the player. Different forms of slow mechanic gets pretty annoying so adding more types of debuffs would be pretty welcome.
Here is a list of some that i came up with.
-Poison -Longer lasting than acid but cannot down you.
-Mark Pheremone -Covered in pheremones. You take 20% more damage from enemies.
-Swarm Pheremone -Basically all enemies focus that player.
-Gooed -Weapons firerate is reduced on a meter.When jam meter is full force a reload. Force reload/press R. Maybe make it so that it only effects the weapon that you were holding so you could switch to your secondary in a pinch. Reloading empties the meter no matter what.
-Concussion - Weapon spread at max for a few seconds. Add some ears ringing for extra annoyance.

Adjustments to current.
-Webbed -Increased damage to team while blind.
-LESS SLOW EFFECTS PLZ GSG

Impact Compensator perk adds a bit of spring to your step! The bonus for maxing out the perk slightly increases jump height. Something a bit more exciting than 10->15% fall damage reduction only.

At the end of deep dives, show how long each stage took you to complete. This would allow people who are trying to speedrun the deep dives to tell where they can improve ("stage 1 was good, but stage 2 could use some work"). It would also be nice, on the deep dive terminal in the ship, for you to be able to see how fast each stage on your personal best completion was.

NEW MONSTER: spawns in a small cave that is not visible on the map and is not accessible, there is no connection to the rest of the cave system. Once awoken by various events, it digs towards players and grabs one and quickly takes him away through those tunnels to its lair, where the player is immobilized (tied) and need to be helped by other who have to ventrue through the new tunnels and kill the monster and release the player. The lair is filled with stuff the monster took away, think magpie, resources, some skins/overclocks. It would be rare occurrence as the Hoarder, hard fight but worth it.

A little change that can be of great help :
The ability to ping the Warm Rock Oasis in the glacial strata.

At the moment pinging them only shows "Common rock", like if you were pinging at rocks.
This would be a good quality of life addition.

I looked around on Steam and through this channel and I haven't seen a suggestion similar to this:

Salvage Point Extraction.

Similar to a normal Salvage Operation, but with a key difference. Instead of salvaging Mini-MULEs, the main objective is to salvage a lost Minehead. Point Extractions tend to have extremely heavy enemy spawns, so it makes sense that they would get overrun from time to time.

From the drop pod opening, the dwarves navigate through a small side cave into a larger, main cave, towards the Minehead. The Minehead is damaged, and still contains its mineral container. The head must be repaired (perhaps in a similar way to how Mini-MULEs are repaired, sticking large items stewn in the area onto it and then repairing). Once the Minehead is repaired, maybe the floodlights and turrets come online, or can (optionally) be individually repaired, for some extra firepower. After that, the Minehead is launched back to base, and the rest of the operation goes in one of two different ways.

It either proceeds like a normal Salvage Operation, where the dwarves find their way to an abandoned drop pod, uplink it, fuel it, and then escape in it, or it proceeds like a normal Point Extraction, where once the Minehead is received, the dwarves hold the line at the platform and wait for a new drop pod to arrive.

Hi I post my suggestions on every other place possible, but someone just told me this is the best place to post. Sorry if you've already seen them, you can delete them. There's a lot. Again, sorry but there's several months worth of ideas. Let me know if it's unnecessary and I'll stop. It seems the trello bot posted a few, so again sorry if I repeat but I didn't check all 50-60 ideas to see if Trello put them here.

New Biome: Rotting Worm

It seems we’ve discovered what made all of the caves on Hoxxes IV. Our scans have discovered the corpse of a worm thousands of kilometers long. This titanic creature seemed to have come close to the surface to die. Over it’s eons long life span it seems to have collected a lot of valuable minerals inside of it. The best way we can honor this ancient and venerable creature is by digging out those minerals.

The biome consists of a combination of dirt and decomposing flesh. The worm had some truly bizarre anatomy so all the same caves you're used to can generate inside this rotting beast. Players will find new hazards like shallow pools of toxic liquid, geysers of noxious gas, dripping rotting flesh that slows the player on impact, and pustules that will explode when attacked. Occasionally the worm will experience a death spasm or the rotting material settles, we’re not sure what is happening. The result though is that sinkholes can form, so be careful.

The glyphids have become infected by parasites, so now we have zombie bugs. Praetorians spew bile and exploders burst into noxious clouds. Just some minor details.

Time to get messy miner.

New Mission: Meltdown

Layers of dimondium are getting in the way of mining operations. We need you to operate a heavy duty drill and overload it’s reactor so we can clear the area. You’ll need to drill to the center of the dimondium and detonate.

The level consists of three to five chambers depending on the mission length. Each chamber will be completely separated by a layer of dimondium a few meters thick that cannot be mined through. Players begin the mission with a large drill somewhere in the starting chamber. All resources are deposited at this drill during the mission since there is no molly.

To enter the next chamber the drill must be activated, causing a swarm to start. During this period the drill’s reactor begins getting bright and louder. While the reactor is warming up the players must remain by it to prevent it from overloading prematurely. When no players are near the drill while the reactor is powering up an overload bar will begin filling. Once it fills completely the meltdown sequence will begin. If you are not in the final chamber when that happens you will fail the mission. After the 2 minute warm-up period the drill launches and cuts a path to the next chamber. Once fully powered the engine ignites propelling the the drill forward in a straight line at high speeds. When moving the drill leaves behind it a string of lights so players can find their way out at the end of the mission.

Each chamber is filled with enemies already spawned that pour through the breach once the next chamber is open. The process of activating the drill must then be repeated to advance to the next chamber. The overload bar does not reset and is cumulative.

#

.
In the final chamber the drill’s reactor must be overloaded. To do this, the drill must be activated and the players must remain away from it until the overload bar completely fills. Once filled the reactor meltdown will begin. This process will have the reactor growing brighter and louder as it overloads. If a player wanted to stick around and die, the reactor would be blindingly bright and deafeningly loud for those nearby before it explodes.

Once the reactor starts melting down evac is called into the starting chamber, since that is the only area not surrounded by dimondium. The team must make it to evac before the drill detonates. They must be careful to follow the path the drill made since the driller cannot drill through the dimondium layers. A team who kept their reactor from overloading too much during the rest of the mission will get some extra time to escape as the reactor overloads at the end. Teams who don’t make it onto the drop pod before the meltdown counter reaches zero will see a blinding flash and then the blackness of death.

Level variation is increased by changing the inclination of the drill. 25% chance of 30 degrees, 40% chance of 45 degrees, 25% chance of 60 degrees, 10% chance of 75 degrees. The gentler the inclination, the easier the descent and ascent. 75 degrees would be the rare and extremely difficult challenge.

New Weekly Mission: Furnace

Listen up miners. I want you to leave your sentimentality at the door. We’re harvesting loot bugs today. If you want the better gear your always whining about, you’ll have to make it yourselves. Harvest the red loot bugs and deposit the brimstone in the furnace to start production. Make sure to keep the fires hot. Call for evac when things get too heavy.

This mission would be a weekly updated mission like deep dives. The miners land and a smelting furnace is dropped in a central location. Glowing red loot bugs spawn on this mission. You need to kill them to collect the “brimstone” and nitra they drop when they die. The brimstone is deposited in the furnace to power it.The glowing red loot bugs will continually spawn to give miners a sustainable supply of brimstone and to a lesser extent nitra.

There are two progress bars on the top of the players hud. The first shows the level of brimstone deposits. The level is constantly decreasing at a slow rate due to it being used as fuel. The larger the stored deposit, the faster it is used as fuel. However, the greater fuel consumption means the second bar on the players hud will increase faster.

The second bar on your hud represents your progress to your next reward and checkpoint. As the furnace works wonderful rewards will be crafted for you. Gold, mineral deposits, cosmetic items, weapon skins, utility skins, overclocks, and of course xp. Every three unlocks the team will hit a checkpoint. All their rewards will be launched back to the space rig. Any rewards gained between checkpoints will be lost if your team goes down. At a certain point you will only be rewarded gold, xp, and minerals. If replaying, you will receive gold, xp, and minerals instead of previously unlocked rewards.

#

.
The forge has two buttons, a red button on one end and a green button on the other. Green is a vote to stay and red is a vote to leave. If you don’t vote in the time limit, then your vote is an automatic stay vote. If you're downed, you don't get a vote. On ties the leave votes win. If you previously voted to leave and then failed you get a small amount of bonus xp for your foresight.
The team can vote at any point.

Has two difficulty levels. Both can be played every week to unlock their rewards.

Every week a ranking board on the space rig will show the top 20 longest runs, so top 5 full teams. It will have player tag, lobby tag, and their time. Runs only qualify if you successfully evacuate everyone.

New Mission: Detonation

Listen up miners. You’ll be exterminating a nest today, so you’ll need to setup some explosive charges. Not just any explosives, a new brew we’ve been working on down in the lab. Should pack quite a punch. Arm the bomb then get far away from there. Once all the bombs have been detonated you can call in the drop pod with molly.

The level generation would be the same as a mining mission. Players will need to find bombs and arm them. Doing so will trigger a “hold your ground” progress bar, like repairing an uplink, and the swarm will start. Once completed the players will need to leave the blast radius as quickly as possible. A transparent bubble with a diameter of 200m-300m will show the blast radius. A timer counts down the seconds until the bomb detonates. Once it hit zero, an amazing special effect happens and the entire blast radius becomes a massive spherical crater hundreds of meters wide. After the explosion the enemy swarm ends. Players can then search the bottom of the crater for downed allies and minerals or continue on. The mission length determines the number of bombs. Once all bombs are detonated evac can be called via molly.

Prospecting License

Here at DRG we like to encourage an entrepreneurial spirit in our senior employees. That's why we're now offering prospector licenses. For the initial investment of a few hundred thousand credits and a small deposit of some minerals you too can begin your days as a prospector.

With your prospector license you will be able to plan your own expeditions down to hoxxes 4. Of course you'll need to rent a drop pod so that will cost a very minor fee, you won't even notice. The prices for your destinations will fluctuate depending on where we are in orbit. You can add modifiers to your mission, which will require you to rent extra equipment that varies based on the modifier. You can even take on as many modifiers as you want, but each additional one will cost a premium. Because we care we'll send you into any hazard zone free of charge.

So stop by today and start earning your fortune!*

*DRG reserves the rights to 95% of all materials recovered during a prospector run. Any damage to equipment or personnel is the sole responsibility of the prospector. If the prospector cannot pay any fees his next of kin will incur all debts. If next of kin cannot pay the debts, then they can "donate" their organs to our employee health plan.

The prospector license introduces custom games into DRG, while keeping restrictions on how many can be made by putting a high price tag on them. This gives high leveled players something to spend there obscene amounts of credits on. At first you might want to have prices absurdly high to burn through the accumulated wealth a lot of the long time players have. But later you can lower the prices to the point that the take from a few missions can be spent to launch one custom mission. Their is also the option to spend the take from over a dozen missions to do one mission with five negative modifiers.

Rare Cosmetic Rework

Instead of unlocking matrix cores with cosmetics in them you gain a new resource which I'm going to call spice. This spice can be trade for rare cosmetics at a back alley stall on the space rig. It could be a shady vending machine or just a slot in the wall were spice goes in and goods come out. Something that gives of the vibe that this area is not fully sanctioned by DRG.

The inventory setup can be done a few different ways. Option one, players use the same interface the standard accessories use, but purchased with spice. Option two, players invest spice in categories for each class (beard, eyebrows, weapon skins, ect.). Every time 200 spice is invested they unlock a random item in that category. Option three, they can spend there spice to unlock a bounty (kill so many ?, collect so much ?, ect.) that once completed will unlock a specific cosmetic item.

I personally think the best option is option one. But it might be fun to also have the bounties from option three available as a way to earn more spice.

This is the last one I'll post for now.

Endless Rewards

Currently the game has no system in place to keep offering players rewards no matter how long they play. I propose using three systems to give players a never ending reward system.

The first part would deal with excess credits and minerals. Currently high level players get no benefit from their vast fortunes. That's why I proposed the Prospecting License. The prospecting license would allow players to make custom missions with multiple modifiers. The price is high to prevent custom games becoming too common, but also to keep employee bank accounts low. The ability to take on extreme challenges though make it worth the cost.

The second part would be for rare cosmetics and use the rework I proposed called Spice. Instead of unlocking random rare cosmetics players are awarded spice, an unauthorized substance players can use to purchase unsanctioned goods. At this terminal players can also spend their spice on contraband drinks that will give players a significant buff for one mission. Even if you have all of the cosmetics you want, you can still use your spice for expensive buffs.

The third part would work with whatever system you are introducing into the game in update 26 to distribute OCs. I really wish I knew all the details, but whatever it is should work with my proposal. When a player has unlocked all of the OCs or doesn't want to unlock anymore, he can spend those resources instead on first building Power Armor and later to charge it. Power Armor gives a player incredible buffs for one mission or until it is destroyed. To lessen its impact on the rest of the game power armor requires a considerable amount of resources to recharge.

Rock & Stone Forever!

Last one for sure this time.

New Mission: Bloom

Listen up miners. Management has discovered a plant on hoxxes the leaf lovers are very interested in. They want the blooms and they don't need to know how we get them. We need you to go in and pump this plant full of chemicals so we can get the goods.

The level generation would be similar to point extraction. A giant plant, like the womping willow the devs previewed awhile back, is in the center of the chamber. A scaffolding structure is dropped around and above it, like the edges of a box. At the base of the scaffolding legs are hoses, 2-4 depending on mission length.

These hoses are automated and when activated will extend and crawl like a caterpillar. The hose will move on the shortest path along the ground to get to one of the outlying pumping stations, 2-4 depending on mission length. Pump stations can be located on your map and are usually as far away as possible. While the hose is moving it will initiate enemy spawns. Enemies can attack the head of the hose and cause it to breakdown so it must be defended. If the hose breaks down enemy spawns will stop and the dwarfs will need to repair it to get it moving again. Once the hose reaches a pumping station the enemy spawns will stop and the dwarfs will need to attach it to the pump. Multiple hoses can be activated at once, but it will multiply the spawns.

Once all hoses are attached to the pumps the scaffolding can be activated. It will spray a special nutrient on the plant forcing it to bloom. During this two minute process enemies will spawn. Anything that gets sprayed with the nutrients gets a temporary speed buff, dwarfs and bugs. At the end the plant will die and the spawns will end. The bloom will emerge which the team can deposit. Once done they can call for evac. I think it would work best and make the most sense if players had a mule instead of depositing at the scaffolding.

#

.
The hose design would consist of overlapping sections. Each section would be covered by steel to prevent enemy attacks, leaving the front of the hose the only vulnerable part. At the base of each section would be two mule legs, one on each side. The metal section would overlap like scales of plate armor. The caterpillar hose would emerge one section at a time out of a box at the base of the scaffolding.

The plant might work well as your womping willow. It would try to hit enemies and allies who get close. As it absorbs the nutrients it gets faster and grows like it's on steroids until it withers and dies. A non hostile or different type of hostile plant might work better though since it might be difficult to activate the hoses or sprinklers with a plant trying to womp you.

This mission gives players new tactical decisions to make and lots of enemies to fight. Players must decide when to mine and when to move hoses. They can decide if they want to drill shortcuts for the hose or build bridges with platforms. If they do though they risk close quarter combat defending the hose in a narrow tunnel or bridge. If they fail and the hose breaks down the mission is very forgiving. Spawns stop so even if the hose stopped in a weird place, players can figure out how to get to it in some peace.

Rare Enemy: Infested Bosco Cluster

This new threat presents players with a challenging enemy that will require teamwork and focus to succeed

Sometimes shipments of boscos are lost on hoxxes. A stationary creature seems to be infecting and using them against miners. The creature is similar to a glyphid brood nexus with scattered weakpoints on its sides. The infested boscos cluster rotate around the host creature, creating a defensive wall. The boscos have a malfunctioning animation to them. Some sparks, arcing electricity, and twitching.

Fortunately their targeting system is damaged so they only fire random bursts of machine gun fire, maybe the occasional random missile if that doesn't make them too deadly. At random intervals a bosco will leave the group and do a suicide attack on a nearby dwarf. Their animation becomes a lot more chaotic. They develop an intense glow, more arcing electricity and sparks, and an intensifying overloading sound effect. On impact or when shot they explode causing a lot of area damage.

To destroy this enemy, you have two strategies. The first is to fire from above. The protective barrier leaves an opening on the top. This strategy has the advantage of avoiding most of the bosco attacks. The disadvantages are that there is no weakpoint on top, it can be difficult most of the time to position yourselves above it, if you sacrifice mobility to get your firing angle you are more vulnerable to suicide attacks, and you still have to deal with the boscos scattering when the creature dies.

The second strategy is to thin out the surrounding boscos by shooting them down and avoiding their suicide attacks. As the defense thins you will get shots at the creatures weakpoints.

#

.
Once the creature is destroyed the remaining boscos will scatter a bit. They will then follow the routine of moving in a random direction, spinning and shooting, then moving again repeating the process. They will do this until destroyed or coming into contact with something. When coming into contact with something they will explode. This can be a wall, a player, a enemy, or another bosco.

A slightly different configuration would be to have no opening on top. Instead a slightly different bosco with more health and working targeting systems is stationary on top. Just need to alter its skin to look less/more infected than the rest.

To balance this creature you can:
Alter it's size and in doing so alter the number of boscos.
Alter it's health
Alter bosco health when not overloading.
Alter bosco health when overloading(suicide attack).
Alter how often a bosco fires.
Allow bosco to use rockets with random trajectories.
Alter bosco explosion damage.
Alter bosco suicide attack movement speed.

As a reward for defeating bosco you could either give the team a supped up bosco to repair or they could collect and deposit the neural tissue from the parasite. Our dwarfs down in the lab are very interested in how the organic tissue is controlling the mechanical parts and will reward extra experience to any team that brings them home samples.

Rare Enemy: Siren Cluster

This new rare enemy type will only show itself once the player is in the middle of it’s trap. The siren will spawn with one random player at it’s epicenter. When it spawns it will make a loud jingling noise alerting all players and spawning other enemies.

The creature consists of dozens of clusters of tentacles that sprout out of the ground. These clusters will be close together and densely cover the ground, whether that be floors, walls, or ceilings. In the middle of each cluster of tentacles is a special tentacle that has a glowing lure on the end, like an angler fish. Each individual tentacle can be destroyed and have little health, but if the lure tentacle is destroyed then the rest of the cluster is destroyed as well. These lures can be located by the glow they emit and jingling sound they make.

The tentacles themselves only do minor damage and temporarily slow players by delivering a neurotoxin. The real danger is that periodically the cave will reverberate with the jingling of the lures triggering enemies to spawn. This will periodically continue until all lures are destroyed.

Players will first need to clear a space free of tentacles. They will then need to continue destroying tentacle clusters while fighting of the spawning enemies. Teams may want to split up to destroy the lures faster.

It’s not all bad news though. When the lures are destroyed they drop siren neural tissue. The dwarfs down in the lab are fascinated by the stuff so depositing it in molly will lead to a significant xp bonus.

#

.
It seems that when dwarfs first discovered this creature it was misnamed. We now believe that all of the clusters belong to one massive organism. We have no idea how all of these tentacles with no visible connections share nutrients and nerve signals. This mystery has lead to the neural tissues of the specimen to be highly sought after.

These creatures are very rare as they take hundreds of years to reach a size that poses a threat to dwarfs. The creature seems to originally evolved to lure glyphids into caves and digest them with the tentacles surrounding the walls, turning the cave into a giant stomach. However, with the arrival of dwarfs the siren and glyphids have developed a more symbiotic relationship. Once again proving that Hoxxes 4 is always full of surprises.

Some examples of a siren spawn if you didn’t understand. If in narrow tunnels the tentacle will cover a surface distance of 50m in every direction from the epicenter. What this means is tentacle will sprout up and down the tunnel on the floors, walls, and ceiling for a surface distance of 50m. This doesn’t mean is that the tunnel 10m above you sprouts tentacles, unless it can be reached by travelling 50m along the surface of the cave. In a large chamber this doesn’t mean that the wall 20m opposite the epicenter will grow tentacles, unless you can travel along the surface 50m to reach it. This creature is supposed to wow players with the scale of it. I was thinking the tentacles would be about waist tall, but dwarf height or tiny might be interesting as well.

#

.
.
Siren Adolescent

These enemies would be a miniature version of the siren cluster. The early growth cycle of the siren causes it to secrete a faint purplish ooze, giving players a hint to where they might be hidden. When passed over a carpet of tiny tentacles sprout underneath you hurting and slowing you. At the same time a small group of swarmers spawn around you. If not destroyed the adolescent will spawn two more groups of swarmers and then re-submerge. The player can shoot it to pop it like bubble wrap. If they focus on the points that give off a faint glow they can take out small clusters of it. Once 70% is destroyed the rest dies.

Negative Mutators

Spores: The player movement occasionally slows and their aim sways while the player experiences severe coughing due to spores in the air.

Electrical Interference: All light sources occasionally flicker.

Radiation Burst: All enemies and allies occasionally take minor damage from bursts of radiation covering the entire level.

Dampening Field: Reduction in damage.

Plague: Reduced player health.

Busted Molly: Reduced mule movement speed.

Deep Shadows: Decreased light output.

Unseen Terrors: Millions of tiny bugs attack if your feet are not partially lit. Bugs are driven back by light, splash damage, platforms, and shield.

Small Pockets: Less mineral carrying capacity

Leaky Pockets: Minerals slowly drop from the players inventory until gone or deposited. Players can later retrieve their trail of dropped minerals.

Empty Rounds: Some shots have no effect.

Lightly Loaded: Decreased ammo capacity.

Stupid Fingers: Slower reload speed and cooldown

Sugar Tolorance: Red sugar has very little effect.

Nitra Inflation: Supply drops are more expensive

Crushing Gravity: Jump height decreased, fall damage increased.

#

.
Negative Mutator: Phase Shift

I don't know how possible this would be from a programming side, but it would be endlessly fun. At set increments players will begin to notice a distortion on their HUD, static or something, warning them of a phase shift. During a phase shift players will randomly swap positions on the map.

During the warning phase players must be careful to not be flying through the air, throwing a grenade, or anything else that could end badly after a phase shift. Downed players phase shift as well, but are still downed after swapping places. The only way a player will not phase shift is if they are interacting with another player by reviving, being revived, or they're in the shielded drop pod. Anything held by the player will be dropped during a phase shift and not swap places with them.

Like the O2 modifier Phase Shift compels teams to stick together, but not as rigidly. A team experienced with phase shift will learn to sometimes follow the path of the person they swapped with rather then doubling back to where they were. However, no matter how experienced you are with phase shift you will always have "oh shit" moments as you're dropped into a complete cluster fuck.

Positive Mutators

Swift Hands: Faster reload speed and cooldown.

Inverse: Level spawns upside down, a 180 degree shift.

Armory: Ammo drop cost reduced.

Heavy Ordinance: All explosive damage and range increased.

Roulette: All damage random between a set limit like 50%-150%.

Loot Bug Swarm: Lots of loot bugs, slightly less minerals due to loot bugs eating them.

Slow Mo: Everything moves slower.

Freeze Frame: Time occasionally stops for a couple seconds, freezing everything in its place.

Rewind: Time occasionally reverses a couple seconds.

Shredder: Increased armor damage.

Blinding Light: Increased light output

Supercharged Molly: Increased mule movement speed.

Large Packs: Increased mineral carrying capacity.

Overcharge: Players given temporary damage boost after resupplying.

Tilted: Level spawns sideways, a 90 degree shift.

Carnival: The entire level slowly rotates.

Orbital Strike: Resupply pods cause massive AoE Damage when they land.

Assassin: Melee kills temporarily increase movement speed.

New Mutator: Time Slip

I'm unsure how programmable this is, but I think it would be funny and cool. During the mission time fluctuates. Most of the time it is normal, but occasionally everything will slow down or speed up. When time slows so do the dwarfs, enemies, bullets, and explosives. Even the mining and running look cool in slow motion. But at other times everything speeds up turning everything into chaotic madness. The fluctuations would need to be short enough that people wouldn't get bored or frustrated when time slows while they're mining.

Another level of perks and more perk types. An extra level of vampire, Impact Compensators, and weekend athlete perhaps. Find out which perks are used the least and tweak them to be more desirable. Such as adding more secondary advantages to perks when you equip the highest level of the perk. Vampire at new max should give 1 health per small kill, 6 per medium and 12 for large. Weekend athlete at new max should increase movement speed by 18-20% and reduce slowdown effects by 20%. Strongarm perk should be applied to grenades and other throwables. Impact Compensators at new max reduce fall damage by 20% and increases jump height by 15%. Strong back at new max lets you move 25% faster while carrying heavy objects and reduces incoming damage while carrying by 30%. All levels of It's a Bug Thing should increase the amount of minerals lootbugs drop.

When you throw a proximity mine as an engineer you should have the option of disarming it even if it has already exploded once. This would simply destroy the mine instead of returning it to inventory.

You could use this to clean up mines that are in a bad spot or that you threw accidentally.

make it so when you dig out aquark/jadiz/bittergem, the little glowing bits never fully reach the same brightness as they were when the item was buried. Have them only glow at half-strength when you come close with their respective item. That way, you can quickly tell at a glance which place has a fresh undug item, and which just had an already dug out one nearby.

Traversal Tools:

Employee transportation device - ETD:
Place a station, that contains mini-mule with a seat for a dwarf. Mark another point with the tool. Mule will travel to a marked location and carry the dwarf with it. Can climb up walls.

Hookstation:
Placed on the ceiling. When marked with laser, it will grab the dwarf, if in range and after that, the player can mark another place, to get dropped there.
Imagine an artifical cave leech, that is actually nice and doesn’t try to eat you.

Deployable Walker:
Place a crate and build it up (like Engineers Turret). After it is finished, the Walker can be piloted by a single dwarf. Another one can grab its back to get carried with it. The Walker can walk on walls and the piloted dwarf can still use other tools while inside, like for example a pickaxe and guns.
The Walker has limited fuel and will stop working when out of fuel.
Optional:
The Walker can act as Armor for the pilot but gets destroyed after blocking to much damage.
The Walker can jump of walls, to land on the ground, without taking damage or cling to other walls he reaches mid jump. Depending on either tipping space or holding space. Uses up a portion of the fuel.

Spiderleg-Backpack:
As the walker above, but limited to the owner.
The dwarf extends legs from his backpack, to cling to walls and can climb up walls and ignores damage from hot rocks and slimy ground.

An Upgrade Tier for flares that allows you to change the shape of the flares (Round, Cube, Disc). Other shapes could also be possible.

Edit: Due to the current shape of the flares, it's sometimes hard to predict where they'll go once thrown. When digging on a small ledge, flares tend to bounce off unless you dig them an alcove of sorts. I think different shapes may be more useful in different situations.

Cubes wouldn't travel as far, but would be easier to place.
Spheres would roll very far, depending on terrain, but keeping it in one spot would be difficult.
Discs would not travel much, if at all, but you could place them exactly where you want them.

Requesting a full-scale region locked china. As an asian player, our gaming experience is literally ruined by those chinese cheaters, even ordinary chinese players refuse to communicate and being rude and disrespectful. I managed to use a software called "peerblock" to block chinese IPs but some of them still use VPN to bypass the restriction. This game also lacks the option to block certain players so they could just join over and over again. Once they join they alter our in-game data that everyone becomes invincible and has infinite ammo. The effect is Irreversible.
I also strongly believe other asians do encounter similar problems caused by chinese players as well.
If region locked china isnt going to implant, at least give us the option to block players, not just kick.
Giving the option to report cheater would be nice too.
The situation is just getting worse, ignore this problem will have huge market impact in asia region.
Please think about us, I understand the majority of you dont live in asia region, but playing DRG here is a serious nightmare.

Breach Cutter buffs:
-more ammo
A common request is to increase BC's damage but I feel it won't fix the underlying issue. PGL is always going to be more reliable and consistent at scoring high number of kills per grenade regardless of terrain, whereas BC requires much more ideal terrain all the time to match its killcount. Given that BC only has a little bit more ammo than PGL, it feels punishing to waste a shot if it doesn't kill enough enemies. Therefore, making BC a high damage, low ammo secondary will only keep it in PGL's shadow. On the other hand, buffing the ammo count would make it feel far less economically punishing to fire a shot that kills a handful of bugs as well as allowing more shots total to kill beefy targets like praetorians.
-quick deploy as baseline
Not taking the quick deploy mod sucks. Nobody likes going without quick deploy. The other two mods in the same tier might as well not exist because not running quick deploy heavily gimps this weapon and makes it feel more unreliable than it already is. Making quick deploy baseline opens up more options in a build.
-increased mag capacity
2 base mag size doesn't justify the 3 second reload time over PGL's 2 second reload time. Taking the mag size mod should only feel optional, not heavily recommended if you don't want to reload for long periods between 2 shots. An overclock that reduce the mag size makes it feel even worse, 1 shot and reloading for 3 seconds is horrible.

The PGL proximity fuse has a number of things wrong with it that make it less effective than it should be.

The first problem is how the grenade calculates minimum range. It appears to use a timer measured in seconds, how far the grenade flies before the fuse arms changes with it’s velocity. If you boost the projectile speed by 500% (which is possible with overclocks) the grenade turns into a bullet that bounces off enemies and walls like a rubber ball. It's extremely difficult to hit anything with it because the minimum range is somewhere north of 100ft.
The second problem is how the proximity fuse detects enemies using the damage radius of the grenade. The larger the damage radius the more sensitive the fuze becomes. This isn’t necessarily a good thing because area damage scales with distance from the explosion, so the further away from the epicenter it is the less damage the target will take when the grenade explodes.

The distance damage boost would partially make up for this (if it actually worked) but currently the only way to get the maximum damage potential out of a proxy grenade is to shoot a target just outside of minimum range so that the grenade explodes directly on top of them.

The damage increase of “up to 100% the further the grenade flies” appears to be broken, but that’s an easy fix.

For my recommended fixes please refer to the attached picture:

I don't know why I just thought of this, and I find if funny just because of the reason's behind it happening and it not being "fixed", but maybe a fun little modifier would be playing with the thing we pay attention to the least...

I introduce the idea of the mutator "Mixed Bag".

What does the Mixed bag mutator do you might ask? Well, somewhere along the process of getting down to the mission site, all of the gear kits got mix matched, and now everyone's equipment is a mess. You don't have time to question who's gear you got, because you have a mission to do. Plus, most of the stuff you carry can kill anyways, so as long as its got a trigger on it that can be pulled, no one is too perturbed, so long as it gets the job done, and everyone gets paid.

This Mutator will randomize all dwarves weapons (whether it be just random weapons from the 4 dwarves that are on the mission, or just from the 4 classes as a whole, is up for debate. whichever is easier I guess)
The support gear could also be switched up if that would be a fun concept to implement, but I feel that would destroy the purpose of picking the class to begin with. (Scout has flares and goes fast. Gunner can protect his friends and use ziplines. Etc. etc.) so I think it'd be okay to at least leave the support items untouched, so as to not entirely remove the point of picking a class

I'm a big fan of games where there's lots of gear-customization. While there are certainly options already with weapons/perks/overclocks ... Maybe another form of customization can be added for further buildcraft-shenanigans to shake things up a bit down the road. As someone who plays this a lot, I have a ton of excess resources waiting to be used, even after purchasing all cosmetics, and even with the current overclock list, some weapons still feel..."meh", to use.

(Excuse my lack of gun-knowledge) Maybe something like ... "Tempering" your weapons with excess resources. Like, a "Jadiz barrel", or "Magnite-infused gunpowder". They can give small boosts (and/or debuffs) like Overclocks, (but you don't need to wait weekly for them). But you would have to purchase them each time you want to swap them out. For folks who play a lot and don't know what to do with all their resources, this might help give some purpose to that again.

As an example, let's say a weapon has 3 parts you can upgrade. Barrel, Gunpowder, Shell (why not lol). "Tempering" 1 weapon part with a resource can give a minor boost to something (with a minor downside), upgrading 2 parts with the same resource can give a moderate boost (and moderate downside), and upgrading all 3 can give a major boost (and major downside).

The buffs/debuffs would most likely need to be tailored to each weapon, or they'd be too strong/weak for certain weapons, and would need to sync with the Overclocks in some way to ensure something doesn't become too stronk.

The resources already appear to be loosely associated with some trait - Jadiz is present in a lot of damage-related upgrades, Croppa/Enor Pearl appears to be associated with fire-rate or mag-size, etc...(just my observation).

I'm not a balance expert, so I won't discuss that in this idea. I find the game fairly balanced as is, I'm just thinking about expanding customization options :)

After thinking the Fatboy debate over, here's my proposed changes that both make the overclock stronger and don't make it teamkills any harder.
1: Add 1 ammo. Self explanatory.
2: Give radiation an additional effect that doesn't affect dwarves, such as weakening armor. Would provide an interesting niche to the mod that's not just "lol big grenade", and potentially widen the range of enemies that you'd use the launcher for. Alternate playstyles are what overclocks are for, after all.

qol thing, my pinkey finger gets tired/very sore from pressing shift/sprint a lot while playing longer sessions. (generally sprint more than walk), I have auto hotkey inverting shift so I press shift to walk which works for several games. problem is when landing from scout grapple, the game forces you into walk mode again and you have to "release" shift to start running again.

could a mode be implemented natively to invert the sprinting action? so sprint by default and hold shift to walk?
i do not find the (native)toggle sprint very helpful as every time you stop you need to press sprint/shift again

Change it from just needing 80 nitra to summon a supply pod, to players just being able to call upon an empty supply pod any time, and then needing to feed 80 nitra into it to activate it, with possibility of re-fueling it. It makes more sense in-game, since why the hell would management require some stupid useless mineral to give resupplies to their workers? This way, they provide you the supply generator, but you have to fuel it. Maybe limit the number of supply pods you can summon in a single mission, to prevent players from building walls with empty supply pods.

Polish gunner MK2 Armor to be a bit more detailed and comparable to other armors in terms of graphics.
It is conceptually good ~~even though the chestplate resembles a latrine at times~~, but under closer expection its "execution" seems rather poor.
I'm assuming that it's supposed to be power armor, but in reality it is more of an algae-coloured sweater with some metal panels superficially glued to it like Spore fragments. The arms don't organically "exit" the chestplate, but rather clip through it with glitched shadows in armpit areas and other visual awkwardness. Basically, it looks passable while static, but completely falls apart during most animations. Not to mention, again, that the base of this suit is goddamn green wool sweater.
All I'm saying that it needs some updated graphics.

Oi tater, just make #featuredsuggestions or something, and port all unique suggestions there, while leaving the rest here, kinda like #fan-art-showcase. Not only you don't have to actually delete anything, you will also no longer need to fight this uphill battle.
Face it, nobody got time or desire for searching through years of suggestions to see if it's a repeat. And when someone new does make a suggestion, it ain't fun to see it deleted afterwards. So what if it was suggested like 5 months ago, new people are here all the time, and they might not have saw it. Just make a second channel for each unique ones, and let #suggestions have its reposts.

Something that I personally would appreciate: Adding all the new "beer" resources to the resource display list for each planetary zone, since they're a pretty big part for re-unlocking all the boozes now.

A simple request, it would be nice to make it so the projectiles from any weapon using "Homebrew Powder" (randomized damage from 80%-140%) would either be a different color if acquiring positive/negative damage, or perhaps have a slightly different sound effect when hitting an enemy or firing the weapon when acquiring positive/negative damage. That way it would be a bit more noticable if Homebrew is working in your favor (or not).

While it wouldn't really change gameplay on fast firing weapons like the GK2 on scout, it may indicate the difference on if you may need a second/third grenade from the PGL to kill something. It'd still be a guessing game either way.

The beer-brewing mechanic is pretty off right now. The ingredients required spawn very rarely and are easy to miss. But paying more Barley Bulbs, which seem to be the rarest, to drink a beer that has been unlocked, discourages it greatly. I'm fine with it taking a little to actually unlock a type of beer, but then it should be available for credits again.

For a long time the secondaries objectives of "grab fossils/apoca/boolos" are nothing but kinda boring to find and pick up on the go. Now that we have beer materials these 3 can easily become more beer materials in itself.
A good change to follow this would be to make more secondary missions be like in Deep Dives, a primary objective made secondary - It's more engaging and what's more, if you wanted to slow down the game with the new atrocious "Hold E", this will in fact slow the game down further plus now with the many beer materials (which they need Hazard multiplier because for some reason they are not affected by it).

tl;dr: Change secondary missions of "grab X" to "do another primary objective" like Deep Dives.

Change the depth of the deep dive levels to be properly DEEP. The lowest I've ever been underground is about -7400m in the magma zone. But a lot of the time I'll do a deep dive and it will say "welcome to the deepest parts of Hoxxes" at a mere depth of 200m or less.

Stages 2 and 3 should also be 500-1000m deeper than the previous stage.

Since people love whinging about the M1K changes I thought I'd post some constructive feedback. IMO the changes were good overall, focus was not actually nerfed much! The issue is that a focus based build now has a distinct lack of efficiency compared to a hipfire one, with each focus shot taking the same amount of ammo for only 25% additional damage, while taking longer and reducing mobility. This can be mitigated somewhat with the "clip trick" where you fire a normal shot at 2 rounds left in your clip, making your last focus shot only cost 1 and squeezing in more damage, but this is clunky and unintuitive.

Overall not many changes need to made. I'd propose A) change the base clip size to 10 and have the ammo pool be divisible by 10, to get 5 focus shots in each clip back. B) If you have one round left in the clip, focusing doesn't do more damage, to avoid the clip trick becoming a "meta" thing. It's an obtuse, unintuitive and unintended mechanic. C) Buff the additional damage from the T3 Killer Focus mod to at least +50%. Each focus shot doing 50% more damage overall compared to 2 quick hipfire shots seems like a good tradeoff for the benefits that playstyle gives you. D) Buff the supercooling OC, it was frankly never good and the tradeoffs are abysmal compared to the benefits.

I think ingredients should be boosted with the difficulty, much like minerals. So if you do a haz 4, and get +100% mission difficulty, if you collected 3 Malts (They are that rare, yes) you should get 6...I really think that the ingredients need to be boosted somehow they are way too hard to get at the moment. I've put in 6 hours for the update without break, and only unlocked 2 beers, and couldn't even get to drink one of the ones I unlocked. This kind of progression is really slow, and I think needs a little bit of boost and balance. Like bulbs are very very rare. I only get 1 every like 2 missions. Just please in some way or another boost the ingredients.

I'm an engineer main and I use the Shotgun as my standard weapon, so it never caught my attention until recently that the SMG has a passive that's luck dependant. As is, the engineer's SMG has a 10% chance of electrocuting a target, which can be upgraded to a 30% chance via mods, but depending on chance is never a good thing in my opinion, game design-wise, unless the game is, of course, a game of gambling. So my suggestion would be to change this aspect of the passive from a % chance to a correlate that's stable, like, every 10th shot electrocutes. Or you could go creative and create some other kind of mechanic that's fun, just not to have the % anymore.

I'm talking about this passive in specific as it was the one that made me think about this, but I think this should extend to anything based on a % chance in the game (disregarding things that should be random, of course). For instance, I can think of the Shotgun's stun chance; it could get this type of QoL change too.

Honestly, I just want some method of knowing how much ammo each weapon,device has without looking at the HUD. I know most guns have it, but the shield generator and C-4 don't. Perhaps, to keep from changing the design, their lights can flicker in a heartbeat fashion? Let's say you have 4 ammo left, the lights will blink 4 times in a row, stop, and maybe a second later, blink 4 times again. Counting the blinks would tell you how much you have left.

So I've been having a major issue with the game ever since U25 dropped.

Namely, after I finish my Deep Dives and weekly core assignment I never feel the desire to play again until the weekly timer resets.

I believe this is due to two effects: #1. The bitter, bitter combination of utter disappointment and annoyance I feel every time I get an overclock or cosmetic that I could not possibly care less about. And #2, a little something called the overjustification effect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overjustification_effect (Go read it.)

In effect, the introduction of Deep Dives and their very exclusive pool of rewards has made the base, non-Deep Dive missions seem unrewarding by comparison. Additionally, since 95% of all of the "rewards" I get from Deep Dives are wholly undesirable, I don't even feel the need to play the normal missions to play around with my new toys.

The only things that I could possibly want from non-Deep Dive missions are crate skins and, potentially, the new machine events. But between the multiple layers of randomness, (gotta find one and then pray it gives you a good skin or decent overclock) hunting for these things also feels less than stimulating. Especially considering that late joining a mission prevents me from looting any potential crates or machine event.

It's gotten to the point where I only really play non-Deep Dive missions when a friend is around, which is pretty rare these days. If I need to do an assignment I just speed run it on lower hazards, because nothing else really feels worth my time and energy

This all seem less than ideal and, judging by how empty my friend list has become for this game, I don't feel like I'm the only one this affects.

Overjustification effect

The overjustification effect occurs when an expected external incentive such as money or prizes decreases a person's intrinsic motivation to perform a task. Overjustification is an explanation for the phenomenon known as motivational "crowding out." The overall effect of offe...

(Stupid bot combo breaking me. 😠)

To restate my issues:

#1 Non-Deep Dive missions have become very unfulfilling due to the presence of the additional, guaranteed, rewards that Deep Dives provide. Even the new crates & machine events do little to truly alleviate this issue due to the next point.

#2 The extreme randomness that is rife in the game right now makes getting a reward that is both desireable and interesting to play vanishingly rare.

To some extent the former issue has been a problem for a long time. Well do I recall the days after mutators were first added where I often logged off immediately if there were no Triple XP missions available. But the addition of overclocks & Deep Dives has really exasperated it. The second issue is completely new and needs to be reigned in swiftly.

Joke beers really should last longer and persist into next mission at least for a bit.

it seems to me the balance of machine events and available blank cores off in the long run. being able to obtain 2 cores a week and finding machine events every 2nd to 3ed mission makes finishing the events obsolete after a few runs since they dont reward you anymore. there should me a whole lot more ways of receiving blank cores. for example crafting them (like @frosty swift suggested before) or maybe finding them in crates etc. while making machine events rarer. in that case you always have a core when finding an event.

Dive into an infested crashed spaceship. To make it work, it might be better to do a few large rooms that can randomly spawn. Since it's underground possibly a very big abandon mining rig with interior rooms. Terraria has this feature. It could also bee an old outpost.

The walls could still be destructible but just take longer to drill through / have a mix of organic infested material that is easier to drill. Hallways inside the structure would make it easy to move around in without drilling.

It might also be interesting to have maps on the planet surface or just an opening like a skylight.

Also possibly add Gnomes!

If Big E is a pacing thing like some claim it is, give us incentive to mine full veins, to mine excess objective resources, and make attrition a larger threat by bumping up the baseline spawn rate when entering the cave but lowering its ramp-up. Make attrition more of a threat and being overwhelmed less of one. Reward exploration and methodically clearing everything out. Don't force us to be slower by forcing us to pause constantly.

New Machine Events Part 2

Blood Bank

Players must kill three blood bulks detonators within the time limit. Blood bulks when killed spray a large area with blood when exploding. The blood will temporarily distorts a players vision if hit by it. Other enemies spawn along with the blood bulks.

Swarms should not spawn when a machine event is in progress

(Edit) To clarify.... I do believe that enemies should spawn during machine events, however I don’t think ACTUAL swarms (in my dictionary, if mission control calls for a swarm, that’s what an actual swarm is) should be able to spawn. Because then the music changes to the regular swarm music instead of the machine event music. And this can also mean the failure of the whole event, especially if you get overwhelmed by enemy count and can’t carry those canisters to the crystal.

how about removing the hold-to-gather E mechanic, but keep the animation, and immediately make the player to stop and face whatever he had just collected. It'd break up the "running around hoovering up" aspect, without making you rely on a long button press.

Related to the bug I just posted, how 'bout an Elimination-only mission mutator that triggers the Dreadnoughts one after the other, immediately, after the first one's been downed? Call it Rapid Maturation or something. Maybe put a timer, represented by some kind of dull/quiet quickening mapwide heartbeat sound, on spawning the first to minimize/rush prep time.

A few ideas to possibly improve beers

-Gag beers should only cost credits once unlocked
-All beer buffs are no longer exclusive to "Today's special" and each added to the beer list. They'll still cost ingredients
-Today's special will now choose a random beer buff to cost credits instead of ingredients

This way players have the freedom of getting the specific beer buff they want at the cost of hunting for ingredients or use RNG to spend credits instead of ingredients like the old "today's special" used to work. Plus gag beers are for fun, there's no reason to waste precious ingredients when you can just get beer buffs

I had an idea for a mutator, but that idea above is way better.

Anyway, the idea is this: “Overgrowth,” a more common mutator.
A lot more crops are spawned with this mutator. This would help help with ‘farming’ them so we can get the beers we want.

I suppose it could go with the idea above but it may be too overpowered of a mutator for those who unlocked every beer.

Some dwarfs need an extra incentive to work between assignments. Why not have new assignments always available which reward is just a statistic in a badge similar to the current level-number one?

I like the new animation to pick up items, however it's a little jarring to be soaring through the sky then immediatley lose all momentum because I wanted to grab a fossil / apocca bloom that's on the ceiling. I think it would be neat if you just had to press E instead of holding E and you could still move around like normal. That way you can pick it up and keep running, almost like how you might grab a bag off a chair while running out the door. This would make it feel pretty cool compared to you stopping completely for like a second.

For missions with the Volatile Guts mutator, killed enemies should explode after a short delay rather than immediately on death, as exploders do.

Holding down E to gather slows gameplay artificially and seems like the opposite of creating immersion in a meaningful way. Machine events hit closer to the intended mark by giving us a reason to pause and the feeling we're working in the mines. Please consider how much fun it is to do the things you're asking us to do, e.g. Press and hold and be delayed = not fun.

Please consider the following:
Method1: Remove the Delay - In previous Monster Hunter games we had press and hold to gather, often having to gather multiple times at the same spot, however this was removed in Monster Hunter World and now you can instantly gather nearly all small items even while running by them (there still is a pickup animation.)
Method2: Minigame vs Delay - In Bioshock you could hack a cameras, safes, etc. to gain access to them. The player had to pause running and exploring in order to complete a minigame. This was a delay, but at least a meaningful one.

Allow us to have skins for:

Scout - Zip Gun, Flare Gun

For example, If you have the "Primal Blood" skin unlocked on GK2, M1000, Boomstick and zhukov you will automatically obtain the same skin set for the remaining equipment on that class.

Probably has already been suggested but none the less it would be absolutely fantastic if the beers that made you small or big would apply in game. all I can imagine is being a small gunner where every glyphid looks like a praetorian, every pratorian a dreadnaught, and every bulk detonator and dreadnaught as actual titans. This I feel has the potential to make some runs truly spectacular, and give a new perspective on the way you play and experience the game which is something games rarely have the chance to do. It wouldn't even need to give you a buff for the experience to make it worth while. Lastly I really have no concept of developing a game but with the system already in place in the spacerig one would imagine that it wouldn't bee such a pain in the ass to make this dream come to fruition. (P.S If this is already possible through some miracle and I just happened to not pickup on it please let me know)

Change the throwing arc for C4 to match all of the other throwable items. Currently it gets thrown in an upward lob instead of forwards which is extremely counterintuitive because it's the only throwable item that works that way.

If you do not have a blank matrix, and finish a machine event; there are no current rewards. I would like to suggest that the player would receive a random mineral cache. Similar to how the cargo crate works. This would not only encourage more of an incentive to do the machine events. Currently I've been in a few games where we skip over them, simply because no one has any matrix. Alternatively, the minerals could just be locked to that player, such as the mineral matrix in deep dives.

Suggesting since people talk about hardcore difficulty in the main chat:
"Specialist's Contracts"
Intended as both a ressource sink and a special challenge for hardcore players, this feature is only available at a special terminal with a group that is fully promoted (maybe even silver pomotion as requirement or so). Lore-wise, these are "specialist" missions because they are failed elite deep dives or other missions that went south and management decided it was too dangerous for normal employees (also, the insurance didn't cover the costs for those operations and Karen from accounting gave Mission control trouble over this):
Gameplay-wise, this means that your party will have to shoulder the hefty costs for this mission by yourself ("no insurance" aka ressource sink for veteran players with millions of credits) and that these missions will by default be locked to Haz 5 with several negative mutators. They will be randomized as usual, but maybe there could be an added bonus objective akin to the Black Box in Deep dives that has to be completed on top of it.

Adjustments to Deep Dives:
I've played more Elite dives than Deep Dives. Currently I find both are too easy.
The biggest reason why? Nitra.

One of the core mechanics in the game is ammo management. The nitra/ammo your team has essentially determines how long you can afford to pursue any given objective, be that searching for and collecting crafting materials, gold, and the primary and secondary mission objectives. It's also a dynamic that affects your decision-making in combat; Do I put out as much damage as possible increasing the ammo I waste, or do I conserve my ammo and take more time engaging each target? That also interacts with the decision as to whether you spec your weapon for greater ammo efficiency against DPS.

Those dynamics go out of the window in both DD/ED. Gone are crafting minerals, buried gems, beer ingredients, cargo crates(?), machine events, collection secondary objectives, and anything else that might distract the team from completing their main objective(s).
This means you're spending less ammo overall, even compared to the time it takes to complete two main objectives.
On top of that, the first stage of even an Elite dive will supply a semi-competent team with enough supply drops to carry them an additional 4 stages, never mind two - so you can expend ammo with impunity.

In summary, difficulty is trivialised by virtue of reduced overall ammo consumption, as a consequence of generally shorter missions. I've also observed experienced players completely ignoring the generous amounts of gold that DD/EDs contain, since the payout is quite high, and promoted players are less likely to be hurting for credits.

1/2

#

2/2

How to resolve this?

The most basic solution I can think of off the top of my head is reducing the incidence of Nitra throughout - spreading it thinner across the three stages - but that sounds boring to me.

The other is re-introducing some or all of the elements that are otherwise not present in Deep Dives - Crafting minerals, buried stones, ingredients, secondary objectives, etc. More stuff that players want to gather means they are likely to spend more time in each stage meaning increased ammo consumption. An adjustment to Nitra incidence would probably still need to be made. Then players would often be faced with the decision as to whether to abandon collection of these non-mission-critical materials, or accept the consequences of time=ammo it'd take to get them all.

Another addition could be hidden/buried matrix cores, infused or otherwise; As they're the biggest reward from Deep Dives, it'd be an extra incentive for players to explore, search and stick around, as opposed to blitzing through the primary objectives as quickly as possible.

Elite Dives could also reintroduce secondary objectives, ie. collecting Apoca Blooms, Boolo Caps etc - with the payout being a blank matrix core, a core infusion or cosmetics.

There are probably much more interesting ways around this, but these would make use of what's already in the game.

Activating a Machine Event should slow/suspend/terminate normal Swarms for the duration of the event. Having to deal with both at the same time, especially with the Machine Event on a timer, can make it artificially much more difficult if you have bad timing (or have a teammate with bad timing/situational awareness, in which case you lose through no fault of your own). Also as a result of this, certain mission types are just disproportionately difficult to complete an Event on, with Point Extraction being the worst of it.

i'd suggest a rework/buff of some of the more underused perks. Combining it's a bug thing with Deep Pockets, reworking strong arm into something like brighter flares, and maybe combing loveable and sweet tooth so we don't feel that akward tention of being forced to use a single purpose perk because an ally engi doesn't quite hold the grasp of not spamming nades at bugs near you. Could also make hightened senses a perk that lets us shoot while being grabbed, to give scouts more freedom to explore and spot stuff for your team.

oblique pond Nov 25, 2019, 10:38 PM

Yeah I'd agree entirely that a lot of the perks need to be reworked, the useless ones are basically unpickable and the good ones are so good you can't ever not take them

Change ifg to say something other then "weaken" because that implies that they do less damage or make it more clear that thats what they do.

Allow people to join a deep dive if its still near the beginning IE: stage one or 5 min or less so that if someone leaves you don't have to start over.

The game could do with a few more Sideburn options, the current ones are clearly currently made to go with full sized beards and don't really support Goatee/Sideburn combo's which is a grand shame for my Scout who doesn't have a ginormous beard for practical reasons gold

SLEEPING SARLAC (name in progress)
A mission type in which DRG has found a massive leech-like lifeform.
The cave generation would be similar to point extraction, but instead of the minehead, the worm's gaping mouth is wide open.
Deep Rock is trying to kill it before it wakes, so they want you to throw a shitload of explosive barrels into it's piehole.
If an employee happens to fall into said piehole, it would throw the dwarf up and launch it somewhere else in the cave. (hopefully not stuck on the ceiling.) instantly downed.

Most of the gun animations are pretty damn clean, but the Bulldog is missing two bits to make it look as legit as other weapons. The hammer should cock back and slam forward when the trigger is pulled (assuming it's following a double action style revolver). Also, the cylinder of the revolver should rotate after a shot is fired. I'm a sucker for attention to detail with gunplay. bulldog

I'd recommend changing Warthog "Mini Shells" OC around a little bit, specifically - lowering spread by 25% (compensation buff), but entirely removing their ability to stun targets, even with the stun upgrade (some OCs already do that). My reasoning is that, being primarily ammo efficiency OC (or so I assume), mini shells already give good burst potential with expanded magazine and expendable ammo, but natural (and more so upgraded) stun just makes the burst damage skyrocket on a single target, so with the change it's shifted more towards it being and ammo efficiency mod rather than burst damage mod, so it's good at what it's supposed to do instead of being good universally.

New Scout secondary weapon: Caltrop Dropper

Fires a barrage of spikey projectiles in an arc trajectory that stick to whatever terrain they hit - enemies hit directly only take damage

Enemies that pass over caltrops take damage, and suffer a temporary slowdown effect that gets more severe the more caltrops they pass through. Caltrops disappear once they've been stepped on

Possible mods include a slowdown effect on direct hits (making them effective against aerial targets), caltrops that persist after being stepped on, lengthier or more severe slowdown effects, and a damage over time effect from walking over caltrops

Minelet OCs feel like noobtraps. They're designed for a player to intentionally miss but that obviously doesn't favor the player in swarms, especially for weapons like the burst fire gun which can't carefully preserve ammo to select where to place minelets. These are also single target minelets. The best way to use these OCs it feels like is to wait for a big enough monster to easily kite it (i.e. bulky but seemingly not dreadnoughts unless you're the one getting chased), or shoot at the ground while you run helplessly from big waves. Or the sensible option, which is actually break out a weapon that will have a better impact at killing the mobs in question.

I would like these changed to give a 20% chance to apply the status effect of the respective minelet instead (since these are on rapid fire weapons), or otherwise a massive bullet size + AoE buff so that shots on the ground are affecting multiple targets after a bug is dumb enough to walk on it. Based on whether single target or AoE is the priority.

Adding a fully melee class called the Berzerker
Primary: Mega pick(good single target anti armor dmg) or Thunder Hammer(Crowd control and AoE damage)
Secondary: Dual Axes(fast hit rate) or Dual Knives(extra dmg to weakpoints)
Utility: Charge(runs faster than sprint speed in a straight line damaging anything along the way, stopping only when colliding with a large mob or terrain, or when the players chooses to stop. If you hit terrain it destroys some of it)
Utility 2: a trap that once triggered stops enemies from moving but they can still attack
Throwable: throwing pickaxes, kinda like drillers axes but these can be used to mine minerals also
Or sonic grenade, stuns enemies
Or throwable parts, ever wondered what happens to all the mules that get broken and u never see them again? Yea...

Once a deep dive is done for the week, there is no incentive to do it again. How about adding some reward to stage 3 that you get every time. Maybe a mineral matrix core, or maybe a beer mat matrix core. (Since there are no beer mats in DD caves)

Maybe a different results when you finish glyphids with pickaxe power attack. More brutal results

Grunts/Slashers and anything of size getting splashed/splitted in parts instead of just dying.
Praetorians sack violently exploding if you finish it hitting the sack itself.
Velocity applied to Macteras bodies to be violently sent and splashed into nearest terrain they struck

P.S Maybe some phrases related to that kills, like "Haha, would you look at that!"
I think this might bring even more fun to that.

randomize pod arrivals:

pod will drop as it do now.
pod will drop on exact spot as mission start (with recalculated timer so you can make it)
pod will drop closer to you, but can be damaged by praetorians, that will spawn nearby. So you need to kill enemies and repair pod, if it was attacked, and only then fly away. Without timer or with extended time limit.
pod will drop at your location, but it will take more time and you need to defend yourself before it arrived.

More defined patch notes.

For example in the most recent hotfix this is at the bottom.

"Bulldog Revolver Tweaks

Reduced damage bonus of the High Velocity Rounds mod
Increased damage bonus of the Increased Caliber Rounds mod
Increased ammo bonus of the Tier 2 Expanded Ammo Bags mod
Reduced the bonus of the Hollow-Point Bullets mod
Increased base damage
Increased the base weakpoint damage bonus
Floating Barrel mod now also reduces recoil"

Instead of just saying things like "Increased base damage". "Reduced bonus from hallow point rounds."
Change the wording to include previous base damage and the new base damage (and difference between).

This would allow the patch notes to function better as it gives far better info overall, and makes it so that players dont have to guess/remeber what the previous stats were to see just how much of a change there truely was.
