Make Error Cubes (or another Item) like Wishing Orbs, you can use them to grant you a wish like, spawn a machine event in the next mission or a chest or a lost pack or for 3 cubes all of them in one mission.
Maybe let you choose the mutator/warning for the next mission.
Or wish for a specific type of cave like a more vertical/horizontal one.
Anyway you get the Idea.

I noticed that the rooms in escort duty and most other missions are placed inline. I think the maps would be more interesting if more room placement patterns were used since then the connecter tunnels and the drilldozers path can be more varied. A spiral pattern would be a good place to start.

So a few suggestions have been made about the Supercooling Chamber OC, but they're either vague, or they're about removing the penalties that give it the "careful sniper" identity which I think is a really fun idea. The only real problem with the OC currently is that ammo efficiency suffers very badly for many common targets, which don't need the extra damage but are important to take out at range, e.g. Mactera Spawn weakpoints and Web Spitters.

So my suggestion to make it usable is to change it to this:

0x Focus Mode Movement Speed
Can continue to focus to a 2nd level, which doubles the focused shot damage bonus but consumes a 3rd bullet

This is almost identical to the existing OC except you can let go halfway through the charge to save 1 bullet. When this already kills the enemy, this allows you to avoid the weapon actively reducing your ammo efficiency.

Stun should not count as a trigger for bullets of mercy. This would achieve 2 things

1:It would make the OC less op by making its proc change smaller so it's not always just free damage.

2:It would make build variety bigger since now you are forced to at least put some effort into getting something which helps to trigger BoM, and not just 1 mod in the GK2 tree.

The new event pumpkins, while cute, are so obnoxious that they make the game legitimately unfun to play.

Okay after playing and testing the On-Site Refining missions there are few problems with the mission in my opinion that needs to be addressed and reworked.
Currently (if I'm not mistaken) the pumping process works like this you hit the button and bugs come in swarms and can attack every connection of the pipelines, cool as it should be the problem is if they attack 1 pipe and 1 pipe only and get it's health to 0 every single pipe breaks even if others weren't touched and also it's scripted meaning no matter how many connections you have game always picks 2 and jams them. Not only it doesn't make sense and is extremely annoying it disrupts gameplay.
So my suggestions are as follows to rework the mission and make it better:
-Every connection has health if the health gets to 0 it breaks, however the jamming process only starts if 2 or more connectors are broken, and only this pipe needs to be fixed rest is still pumping, process is only slowed
-To balance this increase time it takes to finish the pumping process (I don't know how long it takes now but probably needs to be higher if the above change was to be implemented)
-Also after the pumping has finished the endless spawning starts which shouldn't be the case only if you hit the button, and should have same timer as Point Extraction where you wait for the drop pod (I had a mission when someone started the pumping process when nothing was almost done so I had to run around and collect everything. After the pumping still couldn't do the secondary cuz we had the dreaded gUnK sEeDs on a 300m cave. It's a minor change but would help a lot with the flow and randoms that like to push buttons a lot xD).
-Length 2 missions should only have 2 Morkite Wells not 3, right now both have 3 witch again doesn't make sense (also I had a bug where only 2 wells spawned we searched everywhere even dug to bedrock from multiple directions and there was no 3rd well and had to abandon the mission but only 1 time that has happened so far).

My friends and I had a tough time dealing with the copious amounts of swarmers thats spawned from the pumpkins on the Elite Deep Dive, so we were thinking that it would be fair if the pumpkins didn't spawn on Deep Dives, so there wasn't a constant onslaught of tiny buggers nipping away at your shields and health

i feel fine with the pumpkins but if you waste ammo on the swarmers than sorry imo, use the pickaxe and powerpick to kill em, they are aoe if melee used and that helps kill small types instantly which help, isnt recommanded on mediums unless you are desperate for leech if you got that

I love the new mission types, and I don't want to seem greedy for more, but I have a suggestion of one. It's not unique so much as a unique combination of components which we already have.

Dottie has already become a steadfast friend, and it's a shame we have to leave her behind. What if we had an additional game mode called "Drill salvage" that plays a little something like this:

PHASE ONE - Dwarves drop in and locate an abandoned drill, now rusted and old, sitting in front of an empty omaran.

PHASE TWO - Dwarves locate scattered parts and repair the drill. Maybe add a unique component to how the drill gets repaired, like having to transport carriable parts from the drop pod to the drill. Otherwise, can be just like mule salvage missions.

PHASE THREE - Dwarves escort the drill to an extraction site. Maybe it's rolling right down the tunnel it has already carved, or maybe it's going to someplace totally new. Dwarves extract as the drill does.

This way, we may leave Dottie behind, but we can go get her later. :)

Even though the different phases are similar to what we already have, I think they would pose a unique twist by combining them i a new way.

Here's a few passive perk ideas.

Lucky: Whenever you take damage there's a 30% chance that the damage will be ignored. Can only trigger once every 3 seconds, but it'll only go on cooldown if the ignore damage effect is actually triggered.

Elementally Attuned: Fire, Neurotoxin and Electric effects caused by you deal 25% more damage per tick, however you also take 20% more damage from all damage dealing elemental effects, such as acid and fire.

Quick Retreat: Whenever you take damage your movement speed is increased by 50% for 2 seconds. Does not stack, but taking damage will refresh the speed buff.

Excellent Aim: Weapon base spread is decreased by 20%.

**Fast Loader: ** Reduces weapon reload time by 15%.

Make haz 5 give bigger rewards for it's difficulty over haz 4 (right now haz 4 feels worth it but haz 5 feels under-rewarding), and maybe buff the rewards for Escort Duty? For such a long mission type it doesn't really give much more XP or credits than other mission types in the game.

What if we could add sorta event points, which you will get for playing the game while event is on?

i'm gonna be honest, escort duty is very unfriendly to people who do it solo, with all the projectiles the enemies throw at it, the fact one dwarf can only do so much repairing while the bugs can easily undo any repairing you just did, the decrease to doretta's health doesn't help but makes it worse, i feel there needs to be a few adjustments made to make it more friendly towards solo players such as being able to make bosco repair doretta or make it so that the player can repair more damage but only if they are on their own, the lower amount of floating rocks and laser towers is a good start ( although, the ESO still throws a lot more but i can forgive it cause i wasn't overrun by them at any point ) but its difficult to defend doretta and repair her at the same time, bosco is never able to deal enough damage to the bugs to actually deal with them effectively so you're either stuck repairing her with the bugs undoing all the damage you repaired and more or you're stuck trying to kill the bugs and letting doretta die, i don't care that escort isn't scout friendly, thats fine cause the mission is meant for the offensive classes like gunner or driller but i am not ok with it being significantly harder to do solo, so i don't want a general nerf to the difficulty cause i don't see any issues with the mission mode if done with others, i just see a problem with doing it solo and as a person who plays a lot of solo, it would make things both fairer to me and others who play a lot of solo missions, so just to sumerize so you don't have to read this wall of text

Make escort duty more solo-friendly by either giving bosco the function to repair doretta similar to how you can instruct him to build pipes in on-site refining and then defend it when it isn't damaged or increasing the amount that the player can repair but only if you are playing on your own.

@mods and whoever else might be interested: Why is there not a simple 7.1 Surround Sound/Stereo switch button in the sound options for Deep Rock Galactic? These constant windows updates from the heartless bastards at Microsoft keep screwing up my sound settings, and now my computer keeps forcing surround sound in the game when I don't have surround sound capabilities. I am finding very little on how to change back to stereo settings and finding a simple fix for the problem without buying a new headset. This is the only game I have problems with when it comes to switching between surround sound and stereo.

Is there a way we could get the mini-gun numbers updated to reflect what is being show? (I reached out to Amanda - QA for clarification) but the mini-gun currently shows 2400 ammo / 30RPS but in actually has 1200 ammo / 15RPS, but each round has double damage so the values are all correct.

it seems more missleading than it should be.

it feels like having the bullet damage do the normal mount with the correct ammo / RPS would be better for the gun overall.

either that, or could we update the numbers on the mini gun to reflect what is actually happening? so show that the rate of fire, RPS, and damage are what the actualy are (1/2, 1/2, and double)

Karl's shop: each mission has a chance to spawn the legendary Dwarf's ramshackle shop.

Here Karl will give you special tasks to complete in mission to prove your dwarfiness.

The shop should be located in the deepest cave of the map, and can be unlocked by promoted dwarfs only.

Each completed task grants you tokens to spend at his shop, together with the gold credits earned in the current mission.

What he would sell are unique cosmetics available only there, and each teammate will receive the same cosmetic. (If a player already owns the cosmetic, he will receive minerals instead.) After Haring dipende the shop, any player can spend their down personal tokens for the entire team, but the number of cosmetics is limited by the gold mined during the current mission; pricings should let you be able to afford between 2 to 3 cosmetics per mission, if all players had been already saving tokens.

Your tokens can be saved through each mission, so if you can't afford a cosmetic at the moment, you can still earn tokens to store till you can finally afford the item.

Only one task will be offered to complete per mission, and its reward will vary based on its complexity.

Tasks could range from "Kill pretorians with pick axe only", "fend off swarm without calling a supply depot", "kill 10 enemies during a single pipeline run", "complete escort without sitting on top of doretta for more than 10 seconds", "kill 5 grunts in a row with weakpoint hits only", "finish off a bulk with a power attack", etc.

NOTE: Karl's shop has higher chances to spawn on higher hazards, to discourage farming on low hazards

BOSCO FLARE GUN: I think a good balanced addition for solos would be to add another Bosco upgrade option on the same tier as missiles that allows you to choose between the extra attack power of missiles or a flare gun that functions like the Scout’s for extra visibility. It could be activated with the same control (pointer + right click). This would make it more balanced when soloing as Driller and Gunner because of their medium intensity flares and greater sustained firepower. This addition would allow you to balance your solo load out to bring light to caves with large chasms, or extra firepower to smaller confined spaces where you might become overwhelmed by enemies more quickly!

I've only got 20+ hours, so my experience with the game is pretty limited, but I had an idea that I wanted to at least drop here anyways.

What if there was a small, passive bug in the caves that carnivores like the glyphids fed off of? It could either be the maggots we already have, or some new bug. Not only would it add to the enviroment of the game, but it could probably be turned into a mechanic, too. You'd be able to pick them up, and throw them like a grenade to lure nearby enemies to a certain area for a short amount of time. (Kinda like Engie's lure, but it would last for less time, as the enemies would just kill the bug once they got there.)

Im sure I have a number of points lying around my mind when playing this game but I have two that could be pretty darn cool.

Pickaxe power attack damage and aoe scales with player velocity.

Think about how fucking baller it would be to be a scout with all his movement, or a engineer with pgl Jumping mod, or just jumping from a high point from the other two classes, to fling your drawven nutsack at high velocity into a group of enemies and let off some crazy power attack that kills a bunch of em.

With scout it would give him a viable AOE attack every so often tho help clear waves, and could lead to some interesting clutch moments where the enemies you kill from it (with vampire of course) heal you up and save you from the potentially lethal fall dmg. Could create some interesting melee builds that focus on vampire bezerker combo or whatnot.

Damage and aoe scaling should be logarithmic to not lead to people trying to abuse player collision glitches or other stuff that gives you too much velocity.

Visual flair for overlocks.

A visual flair for each individual overclock would be a nice attention to detail that shows off which overclock a dwarf has on their weapon.

While mostly just a nice visual addition, something like a bigass radioactive sign on the engineers PGL with nuke mod would be a good reminder to stay away from big waves he's most likely gonna blow to smithereens. Or with the scout, for the M1K electro focus mod, extra coils or electric equipment on the rifle would be cool.

Some mods that are just "more ammo" would probably not change things, but could be a small incentive to run the Unstable or Balanced Overclocks. ;)

If you guys wanna go really far out with this idea, small changes to the packs and equipment on dwarf armor based on mods and overclocks would be awesome. Like extra ammo mods would literally add like one or two small ammo packs onto the armor of your dwarf. It would add to the potential deep rock fashion available 😉

I do appreciate being able to see it on the gun itself, but on my big screen I have to focus on the bottom right corner of my screen of my tv instead of the cursor where I'm aiming in times when I should be focusing on hitting my targets.

Add priorities to audio and actions. Like the dialogue when spotting nitra or gold would not get interrupted by other dialogues (and can override them), and grinding on the pipeline has a lower priority than actions like building and reviving, so you don't accidentally start grinding and fly off like a beyblade.

I keep on forgetting what the exact terminology for this is, but I hope the point is still clear.

I would like it if there was an optional alternate control scheme for charged weapons that serves as an alternative to hold to charge and fire on release.

For the EPC:
-- Pressing [reload] begins charging a shot. The next trigger press fires the charged shot or it fires when the weapon overheats.
-- Pressing the trigger outside of this charged shot instantly fires a normal shot
(-- Add an automatic bouncy plasma OC that requires this control scheme)

For the M1000:
-- Pressing [reload] begins the focus shot charge. Pressing [reload] again toggles it off
-- Pressing the trigger fires a shot, either charged or normal.
-- Holding [reload] would reload the weapon. If the weapon has expended its clip, it will reload as normal. The time for holding [reload] would be factored into the reload speed

While I don't believe this should be the default, this would give players looking for more control an option they could adjust themselves to.

(words in italics should be taken with a grain of salt)
You can, as of now, fall outside the map if you climb a drop pod shaft to it's very top. Maybe add a special unkillable enemy (a worm or something like that) that spawns upon reaching a certain height of the map, both going up and digging down, and kills dwarves instantly. Here are the theoretical stats:

Name: (some name) Sandworm
Health: Unkillable (20000 if killable)
Attacks:
-Coil
(Sandworm coils itself and from this position it will execute it's attacks)

-Devour
(kills players instantly if the hit connects with the sandworm's head)

Armor: Unbreakable
Weakpoint: Head (x3)
Special:
-Once a player(s) reaches a certain height threshold (beginning of the Condensed Granite layer both on the top of the map and on the bottom) it's marked. Shortly after, the Sandworm spawns and seeks the targeted player(s). Once the targeted player(s) dies (from the Sandworm or other causes) the Sandworm retreats and despawns. Sandworm's scales are jagged with spikes, which hurt the player upon contact.When a player is killed by the Sandworm's "Devour" attack, it "devours" them and makes them impossible to revive for 30-40 seconds. After this period, the Sandworm emerges at a random place at a maximum of 50m from the point it was spawned and throws up the killed player, thus making him able to be revived again. This form of the Sandworm is invincible as well. If more than one player have been marked the Sandworm will retreat (and do the throwup sequence) after all marked players have died either to him or some other cause. The Sandworm will also throw up each player in a different place if it killed more than one player.

Notes:
-There should be no cave generated that would reach the Condensed Granite layer, right?
-Maybe make him killable for an achievement 👀
-Miner's Manual entry would appear if it was spawned instead of killing it

Thank you for your time.

A super nice feature I'd like to see in DRG is the ability to add your own custom HUDs, in a similar way you can download/make your own custom HUDs in Team Fortress 2, I think it would help enrich the experience by allowing the user to custom tailor their game to their liking, and custom HUDs help achieve this in a big way. Some things such as being able to have a number represent HP instead of a health bar would be a nice quality of life improvement too.

Add some way to retract an unbuilt pipeline from the refinery in On-Site Refining. Whether it's by accident or a troll, sometimes the liquid morkite pipelines can get out of control and having to disassemble each section can get extremely tedious.

Exclusive enemy type in crystalline caverns – Shocker glyphid:

This enemytype has an active electric crystal on their back. They move very slow toward dwarfes. They are under a permanent electrostatic field (radius approx. 1,5 m) which hurts dwarfes frequently (escpecially them shields) and slowing them down. So you have to shoot them from a distance. Furthermore the crystals on their back can also connect with other active crystals (in caves or other shockers) making this electric powerlines → I don´t know if it would be too OP when the powerlines are permanent or just frequently like the normal crystals – needs testing. You can shot the crystals off their back, but they have insane HP. To kill them efficienlty, you shot them in the face or belly.

The [It Burns!] Mod is one of the most exciting mods on the flamethrower in terms of theme and experience. It really makes it feel like you are burning your enemies and they flee in terror from the intensity of the flames. Its also one of the most useful mods for comboing with the subata for exposing praetorian weakpoints and unloading weakpoint hits into a burning target. Unfortunately it is a bit undertuned numbers wise. Currently the probability you will fear a praetorian over 1 second of continuous fire with 6 tics a second is found by 1 - (1 - 0.5 * 0.13) ** 6 = 0.33185662695 . Within a second of continuous fire you have about a 1/3 chance of fearing a praetorian. I would like this probably to go up to 50% with 1 second of continuous fire. let x represent the value of the fear mod such that after one second of continuous fire you have a 50% chance of fearing a praetorian. We get the equation 0.5 = 1 - (1 - 0.5 * x) ** 6. Through algebra we find: x = (1 - 0.5 ** (1/6)) / 0.5 and thus x = 0.218202563719. Let's use this value and have it listed as 22%. Thank you! Love you! Rock and Stone You!

I always thought it was odd to get dropped by the droppod and after arrival it leaves. After mission completion another droppod (or maybe the same) comes back underground to another location. I thought it might work another way, the way i thought it should work is: the droppod stays at the entrypoint but without fuel, after pressing the button on m.u.l.e. a fuellpod gets send down near the droppod, you have to build it up and defend for the time refueling the pod, just like in salvage operation.

Well, with @lost crane 's very unhelpful emoji-reactions, I'll put an example of an sonar for the hearing impaired here (picture attached).

I assume the devs wouldn't want pin-point accuracy, or they would have already made one in that style. The cool aspect of an audio-radar (as opposed to a standard style radar) is that it does not share distance information. Only that sound is occurring and the rough direction the sound is coming from. This means, when locating items, it doesn't matter if the item is nearby. If it's nearly inaudible, it's nearly invisible on the audio-direction-graph. Similarly, running/drilling makes noise, so you lose sight of the item you're tracking as you're moving for it (just like with hearing based location).

📎 SonicRadar202a.png

#

A person with normal hearing can actually distinguish between the sounds their character is making vs environmental sounds, so it would be cool if there were some overlay on the audio-graph. Perhaps blue for oneself. Red for bugs. Green for allies. And white for items.

(Third and First Person) Cheering with a carried item (Aquarq, Gunk Seed, Battery) the Dwarf will briefly raise the item into the air within their palms, mechanics similar to Beer. Gives you something you can do, like attempting to reload a full gun, or if you’re feeling left out of a Cheer.

New enemytype – Glyphid deflector

Glyphid deflectors are a special kind of glyphid grunt guards. The armor on their legs are more refined, unbreakable and really shiny. When this enemy is attacked by dwarfes they stop instantly and use their armor as a ricochet-shield. If a projectile/ bullet or a pellet hits their thick armor it gets deflected to the nearest dwarf it could find making a lot of damage. Just like magic bullets but reversed on dwarfes. To kill it, take your time and target its weakpoint (head) or use none projectile or explosive weapons (flame/icethrower, grenadelauncher, grenades, etc.).

Side note: This enemytype should only be found in special biomes, since they need a habitat which allow such a strong armor. My suggestion would be salt pits, sandblasted corridors and radioactive exclusion zone because these are the only ones where you can find enor pearls. A really strong and hard mineral!

Let the EPC ignite gas clouds the same as the Breach Cutter. That or let Heat damage ignite gas clouds like fire damage. It fires balls of hot plasma, but because doesn't do "Fire" damage it won't explode the Neurotoxin Grenade. Currently the only way to get that utility out of the EPC is to use the Thin Containment Field which already has a ton of utility over the other Tier 5 upgrades. Tier 5 C even gives the EPC Heat damage, but it doesn't count for igniting gas clouds for some reason despite being good enough to ignite flesh.

And as for my suggestion, for the ammo count overview as shown by the little gray bars, you should put a line down the middle of each bar, and when that specific tool or gun is below half, only have half of that gray bar filled in. Rather than 4 bars for an overview, use each bar for gun/tool 1 through 4 and show when it's ammo is under half.

Edit: I originally suggested moving a modified version of EM Turret Discharge from being an OC to being a teir 5 mod. Why it's not a horrible idea I have since reconsidered the value of the existing OC given the new Gemini stats and taking a different approach in my build, taking 1 damage mod instead of the additional ammo I was afraid I'd miss. This OC gives enough value that you can make do with less ammo and with at least 8 damage a shot you are hitting breakpoints and remain capable of defending yourself.

A mission type called Exploratory Drilling. There would be a drill rig that needs to be transported to different drill sites. The dwarves would locate the drill sites and bring the drill rig to them. At each site the dwarves would set up the rig and run the drill. more pipe would have to be added as the drill is drilling down. Once the drill reaches the correct depth the dwarves obtain a core sample and move to the next drill site.

The rig could be automated like dorreta and it would remain stationary until a dwarf at a drill site calls it to the drill site by holding the interact button at one of the drill sites. or it could be called down to the drill sites like the pumps in the extraction mission.

Sub-biomes.
Each biome has different regions that can spawn in any given level. They are similar enough to each other to keep in line with the overall biome, but have unique flora and/or fauna to make different parts of the cave stand out and feel unique. Rather than have the biome be the same across the entire map.

For example, the steam vents in Glacial Strata. Imagine a sub-biome that is a larger grouping of vents, with plants, and maybe some small trees around them. It would be its own little ecosystem thriving off the warm vents. Obviously this one would be pretty uncommon.
Or the Dense Biozone could have a glowing grotto, a small area densely packed with all sorts of weird glowing plants.

Little things like that, that you can stumble across to give you that feeling of discovery, and make the caves stand out a bit more in each mission.

alternatively maybe a one-time coupon(/option?) that increases the chance to find a cosmetic event in your next mission (you host)

**Exclusive enemy type in magmacore: Glyphid firedropper **

This creature spawns always on cave-ceilings and search for dwarfs beneath them. Their body are laced with fire spores. They have medium HP and always wander on top never going down. Every second or so they drop little fireballs frequently on the floor doing explosive damage → like little dreadnought fireballs. This attack opens up hot rock, triggers explosive plants and deals more damage when directly hit by it. Dwarfes can shoot these projectiles out of the air. When they´re alone they become easy to handle with. But if they spawn in masses they could be really overwhelming destroying the entire environment with a rain of fireballs. Because they are always on top you have to use weapons with wide range.

Side note: This dropper glyphid type could also work in other biomes pretty well. The bombs/spores depend on the biome which they´re living. For example in fungus bogs they could drop bombs which leave thick poisonous gas when hitting on the floor. In glacial strata it is freezing fog, in dense biozone maybe it is pheromone liquid and so on.

First concept: Code Name “Omega Beer”
Lore: The Omega Beer is a failed special beer experiment done by a fired scientist of the Deep Rock corporations. They got fired since they couldn’t make the beer perfect. Every week they send a robot that would sell the beer for 10 barley bulbs. It consists of all the buffs from the other special beers. The only issue was that it makes the consumer extremely intoxicated.

Attributes:
All buffs from other special beers.
Makes consumer very drunk

How to get:
The first idea, there is a secret broken bartender hidden somewhere in the space rig
The second idea, the fired scientist sends a robot onto the ship and sells the beer in a ‘secret.’

Okay so my packets have been dropping like mad since two updates ago. I don't think it was the update itself but it might either be my modem or my ISP being crappy. But that's besides the point.

Game has some irritating ways of resolving disconnects. Namely when it comes to ledges. If I jump at a ledge when I'm having connection issues, it will either teleport me to my standing location five times before I finally grab the ledge, or if I'm suspended in air, it will teleport me underneath the ledge and send me falling to my doom.

I can mostly manage these connection issues and play competantly, but this is the one problem that really makes it an issue. If you guys could possibly tweak the code to have it resolve in a ledge grab or teleporting me on top of the nearest platform instead, I would be eternally grateful.

I think, the current beersystem needs an upgrade or getting revamped. Currently the unlockable beers are used rarely, for quick laughs and that's it. Players are stockpiling up on Malt Stars, Yeast Cones and Starch Nuts and only the Barley Bulbs are used for the buffing beers. I have some ideas for buffs for all of the unlockable beers:

Arkenstout: Players buffed by this beer, instantfreeze (up to 10 seconds freezetime) creeps with their powerattack./ Or can't be frozen.
Blacklock Lager: Players buffed by this beer, have a chance of making creeps flee in terror when they get hit by their pickaxe.
Blackout Stout: Players buffed by this beer, stun creeps (for 1 second) with their normal pickaxe attack.
Blackreach Blonde: Players buffed by this beer and equiped with the perk "Beast Master", can tame up to three Glyphid Grunts.
Burning Love: Players buffed by this beer, take no fire damage.
Flintlocke's Delight: Players buffed by this beer, can cause explosions that deal AoE damge upon killing a creep.
Gut Wrecker: Players buffed by this beer, take no poison damage.
Mactera Brew: Players buffed by this beer, take reduced damage by all Macteraattacks.
Malt Rockbearer: Players buffed by this beer, get additional ammo and health from resupplypods (75% instead of 50%)
Seasoned Moonrider: Players buffed by this beer, can jump higher and take less falldamage.
Smart Stout: Players buffed by this beer, can repair/build things in half the amount of time.
Underhill Deluxe: Players buffed by this beer, can run faster and meleeattack twice as fast.
Wormhole Special: Players buffed by this beer, get a one-time use missiontemporary perkslot (bindable key), the wormhole functions like a escape button, after pressing the wormholeperk you instantly get teleported to m.u.l.e./Minehead.

So me and my friends thought of a possible mission objective. Naedocyte Roe collection. More particularly, inert or maybe unfertilized Roe. Inert if it were harvested directly from Breeders, or maybe have unfertilized Roe lying around the map that must be carefully collected or else it explodes into Naedocyte Swarmers. Another possibility as a primary is a large mass of Inert/Inactive Roe, as if a large amount has been amassed in one spot. The dwarves would have to plant a harvester of sorts and defend it for a set amount of time as bugs will try to attack from the outside, but as it harvests it releases Naedocyte Swarmers at a steady rate, rather than normal Roe being effectively a mini wave. As a main objective make like a minute's worth of defense for 3-5 Roe Masses based on mission complexity/length. Though going back to the intro of this block, if it were harvested directly from Breeders, it might have to be a secondary objective in case they are killed before it can be spawned somehow, thus making it unwinnable as a primary objective.

Lore wise the reasoning for the objective is the CEO level of Deep Rock Galactic has developed a taste for "Naedocyte Caviar"

I use MK2 with Hawkeye and its really nice to have it centrally located and overlook so much of the battlefield. My primary reason for choosing Hawkeye is for Turret Whip. I want to use the cursor tool to aim and take advantage of the faster targeting. This sometimes works and sometimes doesn't for two reasons. First, the turret often ignores the ping when I want it aimed at a specific target. Second, the turret drops all targets between bursts and points in a nonsense direction meaning i can only utilize Turret Whip while it is currently firing. To fix these: Make hawkeye always prioritize the target you've pinged. Additionally, allow the turret to always be tracking a target even when not firing. Turret whip is an incredible ability and I love it very much. These QoL changes would make it even more fun. Thank you.

Driller Secondary Weapon Idea: Flare Pistol
Description: While originally intended to be for lighting up caverns, it turned out to be too volatile to be reliable. However, DRG found a use for it, a pistol that shoots burning flares at bugs.
Stats:
- Magazine: 1
- Reserves: 20
- Reload: 2s
- Damage: ~60 Incendiary Damage
- AOE: ~20 Incendiary Damage
- Lifetime: 20s
Mechanics: Can bounce off enemies and walls, exploding with each bounce (up to 4), impacting others that may be close by (similar behavior to a normal flare). Burns very bright (not nearly a bright as a Scout's flare gun, but still brighter than a High-Intensity) while still active.
Unique Upgrades:
- Sticky Flares: No longer bounces, but sticks to whatever it first impacts.
Unique T5 Upgrades:
- Detonator: Upon hitting an already burning enemy or area, the flare immediately explodes for a medium amount of damage, covering a 2m radius with sticky flames that lasts for 5s.
- Hotshot: While still alive, any enemies that are within a 3m radius will light on fire, +10s Lifetime

More companion drone types for singleplayer missions. Didn't see that someone suggested namely this, so...

APD-B317 aka "Bosco"
All purpose, jack of all trades, master of none. It's here just for the sake of comparison.

CPD-C318 aka "Pitbull" ||the names are subject of change||
Purpose: combat

Have more powerful primary and secondary weapons, for example - couple of plasma guns/incendiary bomb. And you can chose the different weapons set for it.
Have only 1 revive charge.
Can't mine, can't light everything for you, can't repair things, built solely for combat.

MPD-D319 aka "Dachshund"
Purpose: mining

Mines faster. A LOT faster than Bosco
Have its own cargo hold (20 units for every recourse type) and can automatically dump it into MULE (if you've selected the desired mod).
Can even take some types of secondary objectives, e.g. fossils.
Have only 1 revive charge.
Can't fight, can't repair things, don't have a light source.

SPD-E320 aka "Labrador"
Purpose: support

Have a very powerful light source, comparable with Scout's light gun.
If nearby, can give you a small buff, depends of which mod you've chosen (faster moving speed, better shields, resistance to some status effects, etc.)
Can lure and then kite an enemy you choose, driving it away from you.
Have from 3 to 5 revive charges
Can't fight, can't mine.

The recent bugfix to clients picking up more oil shale than intended has made Escort missions insufferably long.

This mission type need to be cut down in some way. And since speeding up Doretta is off the table due to performance reasons, the refueling stage is the ideal place to speed things up.

I'd recommend making the mining laser on the fuel canisters more effective. Right now they are quite lame and significantly less effective at mining shale than explosives are. If they were faster and had appreciable range they would be more fun to use and would make the mission move faster as well. Win all around imo.

A new tool for the engineer, weapon mount. Basically like a camera bipod but intended for other classes. can turn the heavier two handed weapons into stationary weapons with buff that make use of the engineers turret ammo surplus instead of their own for balance reasons.

Basically it turns the heavy two handed weapons into super heavy weapons platforms for "free" on their end while exposing them to limited mobility. requiring team defence and ideal placement to defend them.

It's limited uses, coupled with the fact it uses engineers turret ammo and the required second player with viable power weapon. means it has ideal teamplay but it's lack of rapid flexibility means turrets wont be invalidated as they can be more rapidly deployed. plus regular turrets probley wont waste ammo.

I guess mods can be given to add either damage or better ammo consumption to the platform. hell could be a mods that buff the weapons with elemental damage.

Please just give us some more interesting perks. There are so many basic and uninteresting perks.
The hoverboots are such a good addition. Sadly, you can't use em most of the time because there are those certain must have perks.

Maybe add a utility perk slot.

That'd obviously have to come with more utility perks, maybe a perk that can make you just jump super high with a very low cooldown.

What about a perk that can make you whip out dat climbing pickaxe to stick to a surface to either avout falldamage (if u time it right) or make it easier to mine.

What about a perk that just gives u another jump which u can similarly use to prevent fall damage but also to, well, double jump.

I'd be excited to see a perk that casts an aura of stench which makes small to large enemys just avoid you for 2 seconds

What I'm saying is that there should be a higher variety of perks or at least more variations of a similar function

DLC weapon frames (and potentially rare free ones though my DLC suggestion is a little more realistic due to quality and attention these would have receive from the team i assume.) that significantly change the model of the weapon and it's 1st and 3rd person animations cosmetically and possibly their sounds*.

Would be a nice spin to add for DLC weapon skins and if occasionally added as free content into the game it would add much more visual variety to people's favorite weapons and could be made as super rare rewards to have a high sought after appeal to them for loot/cosmetic progression without having to worry about new weapon balance issues if the team isn't wanting to tackle completely new weapons.

The atmosphere of Deep Rock has always been a major draw of the game for me. One of my favorite atmospheric moments are those brief few seconds you have, as the drill digs through the planet, nearing its destination. The sound that plays as what I assume to be the massive drill is rather clunky, or hollow. Maybe this sound could be changed to something more indicative of a drill boreing through the crust, more grinding and crushing of stone instead of what sounds like slapping metal together. Maybe the sound could change depending on biome as well, but I don't really have any ideas for that aside from a sandy digging sound for sandblasted corridors, like we have for pickaxe digging already.

It might feels like whining, but giving a malus to Oil Shale by exploding it isn't a cool nerf. Escort missions are already long enough, ~25 minutes for 1 refuel when we just blew up the shale. (I don't remember with 2 stops, maybe something like 40 minutes)
I know we're supposed to mine with the cannister from the Escort's implementation, but it's slow, close range, and on my strict own opinion, unfun. You have strong chances to get a swarm during these phases, leading to extra "loss" time, and I'm not speaking for Solo Players, as it's even slower and harder for them. If you want to make us mine with the Cannister, please buff the mining speed, maybe something like the nearer you are, the faster you mine.

A rework to aggressive venting:
-- Aggressive Venting maintains the existing effect but also damages you on overheat.
-- While overheated you can continue to fire the weapon but you will take fire damage over time.

This would allow you to continue to fire will overheated with a self inflicted pain penalty and would combo nicely with your shield. It would also really play into the class fantasy.

Or allow the Zhukovs to fire 2 projectiles to match its ammo consumption

Expeditions: a long term mission type that runs in background (would be a ongoing thing that never stops unless maybe you're offline or choose a setting), you would be dropped off in an incredibly large map with large cave systems and who knows what else, you have a M.U.L.E and a small collection of metals, refined items and some prefabs for things such as a workbench, refinery and comms station, you can choose what location to set everything up at and you can buy more prefabs from the comms station, you can refine ores and send them up for credits, you could also use them to make new items yourself instead of buying it, it would cost credits though, you would also have access to many different mission types to complete as well, I think this would just add another way to play the game, however in order to get access to this you would need to reach say player rank 10 and complete an assignment, which would then grant you a toolkit of specialist equipment that would only be used for the things on that mission, another thing would be maybe there could be something like a small shuttle to take you to and from the space station, I don't know how people will feel about this so please add a reaction and if you are confused at all just ping me in #suggestion-discussion or DM me, if any Devs would like me to extend on this further please sling a DM as well and I will do my best to write a detailed description, also as the last part of the assignment you would complete a tutorial for how to get everything set up in your I guess outpost of sorts

Volatile Uranium Rounds for Minigun

Shoot fabulous green bullets at enemies! Bullets create a small radiation AoE if they hit the terrain. If they hit an enemy, however, they start to emit an aura of radiation damaging themselves and everyone in the proximity. The aura lingers after the enemy's death as well. Potentially, the aura can get stronger the more bullets there are inside the same enemy.

i'd love an alternative to steeve as well, been thinking about a passive light emitting bug that floats around and follows you but isn't helpful defensively. Just Offers a bit more light for you as a tradeoff for no protection. Can only have one bug at a time, of course. Steeve would get jealous. could be useful especially for solo missions. Being able to send it somewhere and call him back would also be dope but i realize that's pushing it.

Quick Fix: Change the icon of Lighter Barrel Assembly from the attack speed icon to the special icon. It is the only case in the game where two mods, along with improved gas system, in a tier share the same icon and it leads to unnecessary confusion. This will make it easier to differentiate between the two at a glance. This is important for both in game UI and for community tools. Thanks!

New mission type idea: okay so, Doretta's batteries, you can use them to fire a laser that simply collects oil shale right? How about a mission where you start with a strange alien artifact or some sort of device, that can collect oil shale, some sort of mineral for fuel, whatever, in order to expend that fuel as a deadly and destructive long-range laser that you need to use a full-battery blast to say, melt a box open to get the mission objective out of it? I do see the potential problem of having to use it to stay alive and then suddenly getting soft-locked because you don't have enough fuel, but I don't know what I'd do to correct that, probably some other way of fueling it.

I think there should be some options to dismantle the rigs you work with instead of leaving them to rust, the reasoning for this would be that deep rock has done some number crunching and found out that they are actually losing more money than they are making by leaving all the rigs and tech, as a result they have made new assignments to collect and recover mining rigs and tech left in the field, on top of that they have made a final secondary objective to dismantle as much of the on-site tech as possible and stow it in the drop pod storage bay (with Molly) for repeated use

The Lost Helmet could use some new sound effects. It currently uses the same ping sound as batteries (albeit with smaller frequency) and also uses Engineer's proximity mines' activation sound as uploading sound, which can get quite confusing at times. Also, once you upload coordinates from a helmet, it should stop making the ping sounds.

Change Big Berthas +12 damage bonus into a +86% direct damage percentage based bonus. Why you might ask? well +86% will give the same +12 bonus it has now, but with the added benefit of increasing the direct damage mods damage, which would make using them more viable, since the fire rate mods are basically the only way to go if you want a decent DPS with Big Bertha.

For example: The base BB AC without mods has a DPS of 140 at max fire rate. If you add the +4 direct damage mod from tier 3 it goes up to 156, but if you take the fire rate mod instead, it goes up to 210dps. See the problem? Fire rate vastly outdoes damage per shot, which is kind of BB whole point of existing. By changing the damage bonus to +86% the DPS with the direct damage upgrade would be 169DPS, now sure the Fire rate mod still outdoes the damage mod, but not by as large of a margin, which means the damage mod might be viable to use for those that are concerned with maximizing ammo sustain via dealing more damage per bullet. It might also hit some breakpoints on certain enemies, but I haven't looked into that.

i had this thought for one of the deep dive stage secondary objectives, the mule or the minehead/refinery depending on which mission the primary is comes with doretta fuel canisters, the secondary objective would be that you need to grab fuel that isn't as common as oil in normal escort duty but enough spawns where its still possible to fill them up, you attach them back onto the mule or minehead/refinery when they are full and the objective is completed, its either that or a broken doretta and a heartstone that hasn't been mined yet spawns in the mission, you need to collect parts around doretta to rebuild her, refuel her and mine the heartstone, once its mined, you simply have to attach it to the mule or minehead/refinery pod and the objective is completed.

Escort mission idea before sleeping: Unrefined oil sprinkler attached to Doretta that repel bugs(sorry if my english is rough)

Only activates when Doretta's inactive; not moving/drilling

Needs fuel on its own fuel canister to activate; deployment timer depends on fuel amount

When activated, bugs will prioritize Players instead of Doretta(like a reverse pheromone grenade)

Doretta is still susceptible to incoming damage, and still be able to target by bugs if players wander off too far

Could be helpful to solo players and maybe giving more strategic usage of oil shale I guess? Just wanted to do my job while not annoyed by that two grunts slapping Doretta

I'm pretty sure I`m not alone who is enjoying the rollercoaster missions a lot.

ideas I posted in a discussion on steam for a better inferno OC, copy/pasted here:

There's far too many downsides to it still for my liking just for a burning effect. If it were just the reduced armor breaking, -4 ammo and a large rate of fire penalty instead of beam DPS I'd consider it. An OC with limited mag dumping DPS but more damage and efficiency per shot. Heat should be based on damage to encourage the damage mod as much as ammo. So high damage mod means the longest burn while making up for some DPS loss but reduces the efficiency.

Other than that, one idea I had was to keep the current penalties but leave patches of sticky flames on ground enemies that are hit by it. That'd combine pretty well with the stun mod and plasma trail for crowd clear or explosive goodbye for efficiency.

There seems to be no way for a solo Driller to defend against the Flying Rocks in the escort mission. They have managed to peel away both pieces of Doretta’s armour every time I’ve played since the hotfix which upped their damage. Once this happens there’s not much you can do vs a Bulk Detonator. So perhaps you could lower the health of Flying Rocks when playing solo, or make them more susceptible to flamer or cryo damage?

"After a deluge of complains from Local Driller Union 527 requesting more effective jet boots to mine ceiling minerals, DRG has authorized the use of Drill Rockets; as they are less expensive."

'Incitement-Field Generator': Scout IFGs: -10% Radius, +activation delay in exchange for a special IFG that buffs dwarves that run through it with additional movement speed and provides a small overshield. Small movement speed debuff after the effect ends. (May not be resupplied)
"DRG disavows the existence of hacked, performance enhancing IFGs that have been found in supply shipments from HQ. DRG does not condone the use of experimental, highly dangerous accelerants to aid miners in meeting their quotas."

I feel like the Bunker strat needs some sort of soft counter...
I propose a variant of the Glyphid Menace. Smaller, weaker, and more close-quarters.
Glyphid Ambushers are telegraphed by the sound of burrowing. They deal weak damage once surfacing, before initiating a wind up for using a more damaging (or crippling) close-range attack, before burrowing again. If the attack is successful, the Glyphid Ambusher will burrow instantly. If unsuccessful, it will linger momentarily.

Update Salvage mission

Change 1: Communications Uplink no longer starts outside of the pod already on the ground (why would it be there at already, it doesn't look like it fell out of the pod and you don't deploy anything like that on your other missions, which is what we're salvaging; a failed mission)
Two versions:
Version 1: You use that new remote control for calling in pumpjacks to call in the Communications Uplink, you have to call it in within a certain distance of the pod.
Version 2: You pop open an access panel on the side of the Pod and physically remove the Communications Uplink and place it on the ground somewhere, then assemble it and play normally.
It's functionally identical to how the Communications Uplink section currently works, you just get to pick where it goes.

Change 2: When spare fuel gets sent down, you get to pick where it goes using those new little remote control for calling in pumpjacks.

Change 3: Change how the refueling section works. 3 Versions:
Version 1: When the spare fuel arrives, you have to connect it to the pod using pipes, like in the on-site refining mission.
Version 2: When the spare fuel arrives, it's in canisters like on Doretta, you have to pick them up and carry them over to the pod and insert them
Version 3: Same as version 2, but the fuel canisters are empty, you have to collect Oil Shale around the map

Since we've got animations those new animations for repairing stuff, you might want to add in a "repair critical damage" section, some plating (and components underneath the plating) have been damaged and must be repaired or reattached, like you're actually repairing the pod.

Hyper Propellant still needs to deal substantially more damage. Currently, Breach Cutter shots with the right modifications deal about as much damage as a shot from a properly modded Hyper Propellant PGL, except with the ability to hit other enemies in the same shot and more ammo. One could safely increase it to nearly 1.5x its current amount of damage if not more and it would still be balanced by its more or less strictly single-target damage, its precision nature, and the very low amount of ammo you carry. It's one of those things where honestly it really is as simple as just jacking up its damage way more; it would make it a competitive choice with the Breach Cutter to be able to nearly obliterate Praetorians in single shots on the highest difficulties, but not overpowered considering you basically can't use it on anything but heavy targets and you get very limited ammo. Relative to the Breach Cutter, the PGL would be competitive in the swiftness with which it kills high value targets, but loses out on crowd control, overall ammo & ease of use.

If we're adding new weapon sets in upcoming updates, I say do primary weapons first.

Gunner: "Barracuda" anti-armor rifle
A holdover from corporate skirmishes, the Barracuda is just as adept at punching through a Praetorian's hide as through heavy tank plating.
Description: A shoulder-fired anti-materiel rifle, similar to a bazooka in appearance but with a narrower barrel. Fires high-speed sabot-like projectiles which deal heavy damage to targets struck by them, and has built-in armor penetration bonuses. 8 round base magazine, fairly slow fire speed. Can be modded/OCed to: deal splash damage, stun targets, briefly stagger enemies in the area, etc.
Rationale: the Gunner has good mid-range damage, but struggles to handle single hardened targets at longer range. This would give him options for a more snipey build at the cost of losing saturation fire tactics.

Driller: EH-452 "Ion Knife" Electro Projector
This little number was developed for factory work, cutting through sheet metal with a focused beam of high-energy plasma. Turns out it goes through bug cuticle too. Who knew?
Description: heavy weapon similar to the Cryo Cannon, but with a parabolic dish on the front. When the trigger is held, it emits a flickering, crackling bolt of electricity out to a medium distance, dealing damage to enemies struck and with a chance to stun. While it has a conal damage profile, the way the beam dances means that enemies in the center of the cone are struck more frequently while those at the edge of the cone are hit less often. Can be modded/OCed to: widen cone, increase range, arc to enemies, stun longer, slow enemies hit
Rationale: the Driller is the unsurpassed master of AoE, but has fewer options for focusing on heavier, tankier enemies within a swarm. By dealing heavier damage to enemies at the center of the cone, the Ion Knife would give him better ability to focus Praetorians and the like, while also rewarding keener aim rather than wild firing.

bitter crown Nov 6, 2020, 8:51 AM

#

Engineer: "Hawkmoth" Heavy Shotgun
Instead of firing a spray of pellets, the Hawkmoth packs all that punch into a single heavy slug. Handle with care; it puts big holes in things, and it's got a helluva kick.
Description: a pump-action shotgun with a military look to it, but with a much wider barrel and generally more squat construction than the Warthog. Loud, booming report when fired, emphasizing the single-target damage of the gun. Slow rate of fire, 4 round magazine, slower reload, projectile drops with gravity at longer ranges, chance to stun on hit. Can be modded to: fragment on hit for splash damage, better projectile speed, armor breaking bonus
Rationale: current Engineer weapons are underwhelming damage-wise, focusing instead on crowd control and versatility. This would give the Engi a little better oomph in single-target situations up close.

Scout: RR5 Halberd LMG
Lightweight, portable, and with a respectable rate-of-fire, the Halberd has been a reconnaissance staple for years.
Description: a long-barreled light machine gun with a top- or side-mounted magazine, really playing on the nostalgia factor of the old Bren gun. Not as hard-hitting as the Gunner's weapons, but with a little more spray-and-pray potential than the Scout's current armaments. Comes with built-in weakpoint bonus, accuracy falls off at long range to compensate. Can be modded/OCed to: reload faster, fear enemies on kill, improve accuracy while moving
Rationale: even with the Zhukov NUKs, the Scout struggles to help fend off groups of enemies. The Halberd would give him some mid-range options besides the GK2, with slower reload but better saturation fire.

T.I.D.Y. Junk Accelerator (Gunner Weapon)

A weaponrized industrial vacuum cleaner that propels random junk from the Space Rig at lethal speeds. It is an automatic weapon with a low rate of fire that shoots completely random things with random damage and effects. For example, it can shoot: beer mugs, bowling balls, toolboxes, paperweights, shoes, tin cans, depleted flares, socks, and even an occasional grenade. The main effect of this gun is a powerful stun (most solid objects like paperweights, ect), but it can also have more interesting effects, like for example socks can emit neurotoxin clouds, bowling balls can have high armor breaking or penetrate enemies. It does not have ammo magazines and instead uses the pressure system much like the Cryo Cannon. Pressing R will cause the Junk Accelerator to switch to cleaning mode, in which it can suck depleted flares and turn them into ammo. 1 flare = 1 ammo, which is reasonably generous, considering dwarves produce a lot of the stuff. Support cleanliness with T.I.D.Y.!

Gunner: SD-B318 "Aegis" Shield Drone
An Autonomous drone designed for supporting a user and it's team

Description: This APD was redesigned for a supportive role. It comes with a shield generator that can be used to boost shields (this would make you not able to use the shield boost perk when using the Aegis) or project an energy bubble for a short period of time over downed teammates or it's user. The Aegis can also attack incoming enemies but not while performing shielding tasks. The Aegis comes equipped with a submachine gun similar to the APD but only one and with a slower fire rate.

Rationale: Choosing the Aegis will give up the main shield and it's benefits but allow for more mobility when assisting teammates and being more supportive than tanky.

Redistribution of EXP values for primary objectives and misc.:
Most of the high level playerbase seems to agree that the current state of EXP for most missions doesn't really make sense. The issue is not that players don't get too much or too little EXP, but rather that certain missions become undesireable once you know how much they actually give you.

For a long time the standout offender for this has been Egghunt vs Morkite. While Mining Expedition EXP scales with the amount of Morkite collected (1700EXP to 3400EXP for 200 to 400 Morkite respectively), Egghunt does not scale at all.
Regardless of the Number of eggs, the reward will always be 1200 EXP (the lowest of all rewards) even tho 8 egg Egghunts often take almost twice as long as 4 egg ones.
I'll mention that Elimination also does not scale despite having 50% more targets in the 3 length version. The new missions should also probably be looked at.

Secondly, I'd like to suggest a rework for the multipliers. all of them stack additively: hazard, complexity, length and warnings, even tho they affect the difficulty multiplicatively.

I'm not suggesting to simply pump the Exp trough the roof by having them all be multiplicative with each other but instead complexity and warnings should be added up and then be multiplicative to the hazard bonus. Reward = Base * Hazard * [Complexity + Warning]
The bonus for length whould be removed as the primary objective should scale this already as mentioned in my previous suggestion.
The individual values whould obviously have to be tweaked a little bit.

Overall this isn't a gigantic problem but rather seems to be one that is quite the annoyance for people that have invested a lot of time into the game and it could be improved with only a few balance tweaks.

New mutator idea – glyphid waste dump
The whole cave is infested with big abscesslike blisters filled with glyphid wastes. They are everywhere. On the ground, on walls and hanging from the ceiling. When a dwarf shots one of this blisters or hit it with a pickaxe, accidently or not, it will explode doing damage and fill the area (radius approx. 2-3 meters) with sticky goo. This nasty stuff stays permantly on the ground making it hard for dwarfes to go through caves or flee from enemies by slowing them down, like usual in fungus wastes.→ The goo could have a special design. My idea would be a orange-yellow fluid, which contains broken helmets and pickaxes from previous dwarfes, who weren´t so lucky on their last job. Gives a scary note for this mission. But if this is too hardcore, just sticky goo would be fine ^^

As new primary weapons are a possibility, how about a Spike Launcher for the Driller? It would be nice to give them a primary that isn't elemental and can be effective at longer ranges, and it would allow some interesting mods and overclocks such as being able to pick up missed shots, or even climb on spikes that impact terrain.

Suggestion for moding support:
When you guys add in full moding support, I have no doubt you'll start to see mods crop up that buff overclocks like Inferno that the community feels are just generally too worthless. What's the problem with this? As the community makes mods that are balance changes, you, the devs are going to be adding in your own balance changes.
What's the fix? Simple, at every update, remind the player that whatever mods he may have may have no purpose in the new update, and to read the patch notes just in case. Then, make the player re confirm the mods he has. I think it'd be good because of those situations where someone doesn't experience a buff or nerf to some oc because he has a mod installed.

Can we get some clarification in the UI for Engineers Incendiary Compound? When picked it would be less confusing to a newer player to split the damage into multiple lines that show the Explosive, Direct, and Heat damage dealt. When I started playing I remember not understanding why it claimed to lower direct damage when the number displayed looked exactly the same. I'm still not totally certain if the mod reduces damage dealt by Spiky Grenade or Hyper Propellent to be honest.

Make Crassus Bulk Detonators detonate twice.

In their current state it is always bitter sweet seeing a Crassus. On one hand you know you'll be getting lots of gold. On the other you know you will be spending a lot of time mining. One way to make it nothing but a joy to encounter would be to make it detonate twice.

On first detonation it would coat all of the surrounding terrain with gold and would lose its gold outer exterior. This would be identical to its existing functionality except that its model would be replaced by a regular Bulk Detonator. It would then immediately detonate a second time, this time disappearing, and mining all of the gold it just created.

This would make the experience of encountering a Crassus much more positive and would make them feel worth the time and ammo.

New Bosco Ability: Beacons of Gondor

Pretty much works how it sounds. Bosco emits a constant light aura to help with visibility, however you dont need to instruct him to activate the light mode, it's just a passive light. This was inspired by how when Bosco holds an enor pearl and still follows you lighting everything around you clearly. This wouldn't eliminate the need for flares as Bosco doesn't always follow you closely and in larger caves there would still be a need for a larger visibility range.

(I know there were other ideas for a Bosco that has better lights but I felt this was different enough that it warranted a post)

Deep Dive secondary objectives are optional objectives that appear as secondary objectives in some normal missions outside of Deep Dives. (Still compulsory in the dives.)

I find Deep Dive secondary objectives fun and a good change of pace from the typical.
It's kind of a shame that there are only 6 pre-seeded missions a week that offer these secondary missions.
(Basically secondaries including black box / mini mules / morkite (or dystrum) / eggs / dreadnought).

I just failed an on-site refining mission (And also almost failed a few others) because I didn’t remember that the drop pod gets sent immediately after you finish refining and push the button; unlike point extraction, which has a wait timer before sending it in. I enjoy point extraction and I play it a lot, so the lack of a wait timer on the new mission was confusing, and I thought the timer that was being displayed was how long I had to wait for it to come, not how much time I had left to get to it. I feel like either both mission types should have it, or neither of them should. It didn’t help that the drop pod indicator on-screen was so small and competing with a bunch of other indicators; I didn’t even see that it had landed.

Edit: Yes, I’m probably really stupid for taking so long to realize, but I still think that it makes no sense for only point extraction to have a waiting time after the main objective is complete.

The new way teammates are displayed when you bring out your laser pointer doesn't show how far away your team is unless you're looking in their direction. This is makes it somewhat useless for knowing the relative position of your teammates in the heat of the moment (i.e. Iron will, post-revive invincibility).

I believe that whether or not the distance is displayed without looking should be a decision that the player makes, rather than the design team.

Embedded Detonators and Explosive Reload are in a better place in that they are actually seeing play, but they are not in a great place in the way that they are tuned. My feeling is that their extreme burst that does not combine with or require anything to use create a lost opportunity. Scout and Driller are both classes that make use of damage modifiers to reach their top damage values. I would like to see Embedded Detonators/Explosive Reload follow suit.

Internal damage is unique to these OC's if I understand correctly, though I might be missing others. Change the way it functions from a sort of pure damage to a separate type of physical damage. Internal damage would not do weakpoint damage but would scale with any elemental modifiers such as conductive bullets, volatile bullets, and most importantly frozen. It would also scale with Mactera Toxin Coating. This would make it perform exceptionally well for clearing frozen enemies. It would give the Subata and great pairing with the Driller's Cryo Cannon and the Zhukov's a great pairing with the Cryo Grenade, while still working well with multiple other build options.

Finally to adjust for these newfound combo possibilities the damage and penalties would have to be adjusted once more. Overall I feel this would make the OC's really standout and feel like they work with your build instead of regardless of it. Thanks!

Hello, i have an idea/request that i hope someone will see and consider. I have mentioned it to friends and they agree. I think there should be a way to deconstruct unwanted overclocks at the forge. For Gold or minerals or if nothing else just throw them away. i currently have 15 overclocks at the forge and have no intention of ever forging them. They are undesirable to me personally. So every time i get new overclocks that i am interested in i have to go through and find which 1 is the 1 i want. i know that new overclocks have a red mark by them when i first get into the forge but please please make a way for us to either trash or deconstruct our unwanted overclocks. Thank you so much for such an amazing game. You guys are doing great work with this game(:

-Replaces primary cryo function with automatic snowball launcher
-Cools faster than regular stream but doesn't pierce enemy ranks
-Reduce Snowball area radius to 2.5 or 3 (similar to the AC)
-Reach converts to projectile velocity (for the mod's sake)
-RoF/Flowrate/Tickrate reduced to 3.5 (base autocannon RoF)
-Reduced RoF passively reduces fragile proc (shatter) rate
-Much smaller pressure tank size
-Retains the 2s Repressurization penalty
-Retains the Ammo penalty (or increases it)
-New +0.3s chargeup time penalty
(Snowball becomes a true unstable OC)

Deconstructing (or destroying) refinery pipelines should be able to be done at any part of the pipe, not just the further most part, so in case we have had a big mistake of guessing where the morkite deposit is, but it then happened to be in the other way of the map, we should be able to just destroy any part of the pipe (which will destroy the entire pipe that has been disconnected) instead of piece by piece, from the end to the base.

The top right 'resource hud' should add how much of x resource do the players have, for example: if theres an objective to get 14 ebonuts, and we've gathered 9, but i still have one on me, it should say 9(+1)/14. the counter should count everyone's ebonuts in their pockets ofc, so if another player has 3 ebonuts on them, it should say 9(+4)/14, etc etc.
This should go for any resource that we can gather, like gold, nitra, morkite, and literrally anything else.

This idea comes to solve the problem of some players have with communication, so competent players wont have to guess how many players have said resource.

I don't want to Search over 800+ messages to see if what im about to say has already been said,but feel free to delete if thats the case

So after reading through a steam discussion, i guy said: What if we were able to equip Active perks in the Passive perks slot?

The idea is to just get the Passive effect of the Active perk to work, if you wanted to have the Active part of Shield link, you need to place it on the Active slots slot, as long its on the Passive slot,you can't activate the Shield link to Overcharge teammates shield by 300%

this gives more ideas for Perks buffs and variety, perks like Strong arm could have, and example: An active that allows you to run with heavy objects in your hand, maybe Carry with only one arm and having your hand free to use the Pickaxe (please keep in mind these are examples), id love to see what players can come up for active parts of these passive perks

however, it has to come in mind that perks like Dash and Second wind are Similar,but different, their active and passive can't be too similar to one another, one is a burst of speed while the other is a Constant extra speed, taking that into mind the perks have to be balanced to feel unique and apart from other perks that feel similar to one another

Like How Dash can give Complete immunity to slowdown during its short burst of speed, of wich the Passive perk Unstoppable does but 50%

I feel the CRSPR's OCs are a little bland, mostly so the Unstables ones not really feeling like Unstables ones. So, some ideas to make them feel a tiny bit more spicy:

Face Melter

Makes the beam thicker (NEW)
Increases damage by 3 (from 2)
Increases RoF by 1,2 (from 1,8)
Reduces max ammo by 75
Reduces movementspeed to 0,5x while firing

The main addition here is increasing the size of the flame beam, but also shifting over its DPS to pure damage.

Sticky Fuel -> Napalm Stream

The last 2 meters of the beam also drops flaming droplets straight down from its beam, producing sticky flame where the droplets land (Meaning there will ALWAYS be sticky flames on the ground, even if you shoot out into thin air, not hitting the environment!) (NEW)
Increases sticky flame damage by 5
Increases sticky flame duration by 6 seconds
Reduces ammo by 75
Reduces tank size by 25
Reduces RoF to 0,7x (NEW)

With guaranteed sticky flames spawning (and a bigger area of them), no matter how you shoot, this OC really emphasizes playing with sticky flames. Reducing the RoF further emphasizes this, as you can more efficiently spread those sticky flames around, but it also loses your burst DPS from the direct stream.

Why: I’m disappointed that the beams of the towers in the 4th phase just pass right through you and hurt Doretta, so make the beams hurt you before they hurt Doretta.

just a quick idea that i had: as a character is leveled up maybe they could develop a little style in their reload animations and such. when u start off, all the animations could be stiff and functional since you’re a greenbeard, but as you level up you could develop some style and bravado. or, it could be a cosmetic thing, as in you can find it in cargo crates, or buy them, or get them from matrix cores. this obviously would not be reset when promoted if its by level

Replace the homebrew powder OC on the subata 120 with an OC similar to Gas Recycling which prevents weakpoint damage, but adds a lot of flat damage. this would be an ideal pairing with the cryo cannon. The subata is currently lacking any real cryo cannon synergies. I would appreciate this a lot.

I think it would nice if Bulk detonators would use explosions to burrow through the ground like they used to. Since Dreadnaught’s and Oppressors have tough claws to dig through terrain while Detonators have nubs I think it would be more fitting to use some of its explosive power to blast rock away, like using TNT to blow through terrain. I always found it terrifying when a Bulk it tunneling towards you and you could hear the distant explosions coming towards you as the ground began to shake from the power it’s generating to get to you. The explosions that it generates from digging could be half the radius and damage of what the normal melee attack is so that it won’t surprise insta kill a dwarf through the ground or something like that.

Based on what I just said in #bug-discussion, it would be great if they could add a final 10 seconds countdown before the pod launches without you, because me and my friends have been left behind whilst fighting out in the last area, not being able to focus on the timer. It has ruined many of our missions so far and it seems relatively simple to implement just to help some newer players or distracted people.

In the server list, make the distance filter to have multiple checkboxes, as if id wanna see servers that are both close and medium at once, and not just a single option.

A Deep dive type called, a core deep dive, where the drop pod drops you near a inactive lava tube and then Mission control sends in a specialized platform that sends zip lines to the side of the lava tube (which Are 40m from the center for a diameter of 80m ) suspending it in place. The bottom of the platform will feature four claws and a large platform gun, the claws will catch falling dwarfs, downing the dwarf and bringing him back to the platform. The large platform gun will shoot platforms that are 10 m in diameter, just below cave entrances.The only way to get to lower caves is through the lava tube (each level of caves will have a unbreakable material separating them) each level is a different stage of the deep dive The first stage will always be a new mission type called onsite manufacturing, Which will be very similar to Onsite refining, The difference will be instead of pipes you will build conveyors, and they will be veins of a new material called ryinite which is a essential material for all company buildings and ammo. The difference will be that the conveyors have slots for automated turrets which you only have a finite amount of. Once you collect enough ryinite you will be able to build the next level The next level will be a similar platform but the platform is specified to the mission type at that stage. The 2nd 3rd 4th stages will be started at the push of a button. The top platform will have 4 slots for specialized supply drops that cost 50 nitra to drop. At the end the deep dive The suspended platform will launch a extra large minehead. Once the drop pod lands a Drop pod departure timer starts and a Drop timer starts. The drop timer is when the suspended platform will disconnected its lines and drop to the bottom of the lava tube. Feel free to @ me if you have any questions

The 'today's special' (beer of the day) should add the buff description text in the splash image that appears after drinking the beer, and/or in the small monitor near the bar that presents the beer of the day. This way, those who drank the beer without going through the beer selection menu, will know which buff (if any) they will get by it.

Right now, the only way to know the buff type (without memorizing it) is by actively looking at the beer selection menu as the beer buyer, which is clunky and unintuitive for new players.

It would be nice if some inconsistencies with how things are marked were sorted out. For example: When you mark an uplink, its outine doesn't appear but the outline of the fuel cells does.

Also, marking different parts of the OMEN Modual Exterminator is a mess. Some of them show as hostile on the marking tool, others don't. When you mark some of them, your character shouts "Hello!" while others he shouts "Enemy!".

Also, since marking a gunk seed, an egg or an error cube shows its outline, I think it should also be a thing for compressed gold/jadiz/enor pearl/bittergem/aquarq.

More about marking: How about being able to mark the supply pod beacon like you can mark the fuel cells beacon (perhaps marking would use the same shouts as when calling the supply pod)? It could perhaps help some people avoid being crushed by accident

So, I had an idea earlier today to give more veteran players a more challenging experience while also keeping the greenbeard spirit, and it's regarding Deep Dives, and how some of the more skilled players make them look trivial, with this said, I propose keeping the (basic) "Deep Dive" and make it a "regular Deep Dive", rename the "Elite Deep Dive" to the "Professional" or "Extraordinary Deep dive", and add a third one, this one receiving the name of "Elite Deep Dive", where I suggest instead of 3 stages, we make it 5, with the same scaling, so it would be stage 1 at hazard 4, stage 2 at hazard 4.5, stage 3 at hazard 5, stage 4 at hazard 5.5 and stage 5 at an infamous hazard 6, thus making the experience a challenge even for a well prepared team of dwarves, it should be noted that by the time a team reaches stage 5, they will most likely already have hoarded up A LOT of Nitra, making hazard 6 a challenge of organization, efficiency, and skill, not a struggle for resources. The rewards for these last two stages are something I haven't thought about, given that most of these advanced players (in which I don't belong myself) aren't looking for resources, credits, xp, or even Matrix cores, of course these rewards will be given in earlier stages, but I feel like stage 5 should have a more special reward, like an exclusive armor, an MK6 if you like, only the best for the best, if this was to be unviable, I'd suggest cosmetic items, or a different border for their character plate in-game, above of which are positioned the promotion stars, you know, where the gunner/driller/scout/engineer pictures are displayed.

Now, unlocking this "Elite Deep Dive" shouldn't be an easy task, and I suggest unlocking it once at least one dwarf has reached his 15th promotion, thus entering the "Diamond" promotions, where we can make sure that players know what they're doing with their characters and don't get stomped on.

Hi all, i wanted to put this out there in hopes to get more people thinking about this so here goes. As of late I've been having feeling that there wasn't anything to do , and that bothers me, we just got a batch of brand new batch of missions and have new biomes /enemies on the way, why am i feeling like this. so i though about it , and the more i though the more i came to the conclusion that its not that there wasn't anything to do rather it was a lack of reasons to do things. what i mean is i (and possibly you as well) have exhausted all if not most means of progression, no upgrades left, no more perks to unlock, no more progressional reason to play ((this would extend to newer players who have found there prefered play styles Granted not nearly as much)).And aside from increasing ranks and grinding out cosmetics,i for the most part have nothing left. so my suggestion would be just that, more player progression, more gameplay affection progression, some sort of player improvements no matter how miner. small % increases to reward payouts, small % weapon improvements, weapon mastery ( like prestiging but for weapons) small player stat bonuses or even something completely new just as a few ideas. Anyway thanks for reading, thank you G,S,G for Deep Rock and i hope it keeps getting better and better. Rock and Stone!

New Gunner grenade idea: The Booster Battery

This grenade is actually a grenade-sized battery that you can slot into your primary weapon. Using the battery will temporarily Increase your direct damage and splash damage, but in turn reduce your fire rate and movement speed. Im thinking the gun would shoot all 3/2 barrels at once, dealing 5x the damage, but using 3x the ammo and only firing at a third of the usual firing speed. It would also have an increased blast radius, probably somewhere around 2x. To handle the heavy recoil, the gunner's movement speed would be reduced by a large amount, somewhere between 60 and 80%.

Maybe the balance is a little off, but i think it would be really cool to activate death mode in the middle of a swarm, and shoot super powered shells into a horde of bugs.

Engineer - X-AK-TOE™ Circular Saw Launcher - Originally used by our ancestors to get things hanging in tall places to come down, R&D has made this sharper and gave it some extra oomph. Caution: Do not handle the blades directly. They’re sharp all the way around.
Driller - Rail gun pistol - For the refined refiner, the Rail Pistol allows the Driller to specifically focus on shooting the brains out of Glyphids. It has been known to pierce through the thick hides of Oppressors, and what do we say to oppression, lads?

New variety of glyphid dreadnought, well triplets: This new boss encounter would spawn in three swarmer like dreadnoughts, that would get stronger every time one of them dies off.

Phase 1. The three dreadnoughts would have very little indestructible armor located around the head, and would charge at the player(s) trying to bite them.
Phase 2. Now with two dreadnoughts remaining, they would both get more indestructible armor around the head and a bit on the sides. They would also gain a new attack, this attack would allow them to spit a toxic sludge ball at the player(s) slowing movement and inflicting gradual damage while in the sludge.
Phase 3. The final stage now with only one dreadnought standing, would have close to impenetrable armor everywhere, the only way you could kill it is by taking advantage of it's third move set. It would tuck itself into it's shell like the Q'ronar Shellbacks and roll trying to ram the player(s), the player would then need to jump out of the way of the dreadnought causing it to crash into a wall breaking some of it's shell in the location of collision. Only then you could start to damage the dreadnought by shooting where it's shell has been destroyed.

Same goes for Sylicite Harvesters(English is hard),a completely passive and invincible creature. A general update to "item" specific voicelines would be nice...Still dont understand why a Glyphid Guard has a unique voice line when you ping it,while the Pretorian doesnt

Use of errorcube idea – DRG research laboratory (endgame mechanic)

DRG provides a special area with flying drones and research bots which are programmed to discover new unusual but awesome ways to kill enemies. But they need data from errorcubes and ressources to accomplish that. You can buy research blueprints with your error cubes. One blueprint could cost 1-3 error cubes.
These blueprints offer special research projects for current weapons and equipment (shields, C4, grenades etc.). It is important to say that these projects don´t mess with current weapon stats or mechanics. They are no overclocks and just for visual changes. But unlike a typical paintjob every blueprint comes with their own texture style and soundjob for each equipment without changing the official mechanic!
For example there could be a blueprint which changes the looks of the engineer turrets into spiderbots which fire either laserwaves, sawblades or pocket-swarmers. The thunderhead could shoot explosive music notes or ebonut shells instead of bullets. The Flamethrower could fire acidtrails instead of flames. Instead of a grapling hook the scout could use a gun which warpes him in a direction. The possibilities here are endless and should just show you what I mean.

But you need to provide many different ressources for each blueprint. Since these are more complex changes you have to work a lot more and much more specific. Maybe including primary and secondary missionsgoals. Something like this:
Project X:
• 500k Gold
• 100k Morkite
• 15k Enor pearl
• 800 Starchnut

Whatever it is you need to gather, the genuine idea is that it takes a lot more time to accomplish than paintjobs at the forge mastery. I think this would be a good mechanic for 1k+ hours veteran players to keep them still genuinely occupied in the game.

Platform gun upgrade tree tweaking:
Idea 1:
Aesthetics/readability: Bug repellent and Fall damage reducing upgrades could change the texture of engineer's platforms so they are communicated to other players. Fall damage reduction could make them more spongy and bug repellent have more orange/greenish tint.

Idea 2:
Tier 2 of upgrades for fall damage reduction is a bit boring (0 choice), so adding 2 options to make the platforms 30% bigger or 3-4x thicker (to more easily block off or narrow down some pathways) as an alternative would could be cool. Fall damage reduction is superb though, so maybe it should be choice between bug repellent and fall damage reduction. Fall damage upgrade also is so useful that it feels necessary to pick.

Idea 3:
More diversity to the platform upgrades: highly flamable - damaging with heat generating weapons has chance to ignite the platform roaring in flames for a while, similar to sticky flames, heating & damaging both enemies and dwarves alike (with friendly damage reduction). After it finishes burning it does not destroy the platform but it makes the texture charred black that cannot be ignited again. Should be chain-igniting when many platforms are connected. Definetely should be communicated with texture change. Make exclusive with bug repellant?
Damage should be either intensive for short period, or small for a long period, so that playing around that can be interesting rather than neglible. I think I'd prefer the latter.

Comment:
I personally love bug repellent and utilize it a lot, but I don't see others doing it. Covering the cliff with wall of platforms defends pretty well from being backstabbed with sneaky enemies. I think there's room to add some interesting upgrades for platform gun.

So, I had a dream that y'all released a new enemy type. We were in a mining mission and stumbled upon some scattered equipment (similar to the helmets), but we couldn't do anything with it. In the distance, we heard whistling and faintly "If you don't rock and stone, you ain't coming home". And then popped up a boss health bar for Karl. He had lost his mind and had somehow upgraded all of his equipment with some wild powers (like a breach cutter turned into a light saber). There was a random chance of what class he was. He had some suckers on him like BET-C but you could also damage his health if you weren't accurate. If you just killed the suckers, you could fix him like BET-C, but if you didn't just hit the suckers, you could risk killing him.

A rework-idea for M1K's OC Supercooling Chamber:

Damage is raised by 1,5x.
Adds +2 penetration.
Hipfire shots now are the same as focusshots (but without the zoom), also consuming 2 ammo and can trigger the Tier 5 stun/fear etc.
You get slowed down by 70% for 1 second after firing, if using the hipshot (With the Fast-Charging Coils mod, the slowdown duration is slightly reduced).
Hipfire RoF reduced to 0,25x.
Ammo reduced to 0,75x.
Recoil increased by 1,5x.

Basicly, it changes the M1K up in true "Untable" fashion, making it feel more like a Railgun-sniper. It has the upside of being very quick to use for focusshots (since you can just hipshot for it), but it is harder to manage your ammo since you always have to use 2 ammo on every shot. Do note that you can still charge your shots for the zoom-effect, which has the upside of making you slowed down BEFORE shooting (rather than after), and you have the aim-utility of the zoom, as well.

I wish that Leechers were embedded in fleshwall like the stuff that eggs are in. Does not have to be much, just beneath them and sometimes little around them that's moslty visible once they are killed. Just a little bit for aesthetics' sake. It would make them a little easier to spot I guess, but that's not the goal for this change. It would make them look much better than being surrounded by rock.

@edit:
The suggestion I made is mostly for aesthetics - they look out of place with their model clinging to the rocky den in ceilings. I believe with their fleshy look one may count for them being part of bigger flesh body and expect to see some meaty bed under them when killed. Their model suggests that they are deep in rock clinging with something deeper. It looks disappointing to see them as a band-aid sticked on rocky ceiling. Sort of like upside-down Ant lion:

The easiest solution is to add some of existing stuff during map generation when placing them under. I wouldn't mind the model being tweaked to look less out of place and more like some barnacle instead.

A nice little touch that I haven't heard about would be a change in voice lines depending on a player's experience (either their player level or the lvl of their dwarf.)

An example of this would be the "drop-in" voice lines. I'm ~player level 145, hearing my plat II Engineer cry like a baby while dropping into a hazard 3, cave complexity 1, length 1 mission doesn't exactly seem right to me XD
To implement this, perhaps a high leveled dwarf will say "Ugh, another one of these" when pinging an enemy or something. It's cheesy but it's the quickest example I could come up with.

Alternatively, I think it would be cool to hear the dwarves warm up to Bosco the more solo missions you play. For instance, if you play a lot of solo missions, the dwarves could be a bit more grateful when getting revived by Bosco instead of being ashamed that a robot ressed them. But I feel like the dwarves having a bit of a disdain towards robots works more towards the devs view of the game/lore and the dwarves themselves, so this is a small idea.

Always wanted the ability to host, search, join and play a LAN server. Me and my brother want to play it together but we have no internet in the area we live in. I use my phone hotspot which makes it hard to join to the host's server. We can do so just takes a few tries but once we do we can turn the hotspot off (completely disconnecting from the DRG servers) able to play with each other for a few rounds before the non-host crashes. I have tested with my other brother at his house (which has internet access) and this seems to happen about an 1 hour after disconnecting. Don't know why we can't have the option to host, search and join for LAN servers without having to go through DRGs servers when we can play that way (with a bit of hassle). Something to think about when releasing other future updates. Thanks.

Karl would approve of this.

For phase 2 of the Ommaron encounter, the white spots on the rocks should be weakpoints with a scalar of ×1. This would allow weapons with bonus damage against weakpoints to get better value. Right now that phase is very heavily in favor of direct damage builds. Rewarding build diversity is better for everyone in a PvE game.

Better pipe info in refinery missions:

When finishing a pipe frame all the way to a pumpjack, it would be nice to see some more info in the hud about how many sections of the pipe are built and how many are in total. This idea comes to give real time info on the process of building the refinery's infrastructure as a whole.

This image example illustrates the idea - Every pipe number will show how many sections it has and how many of them are built (this will only appear after finishing building the pipe's pathway, for obvious reasons), and will update in real time when players are building them.
So for this example:
Pipe #1 has 10 parts and they're all finished (grey).
Pipe #2 has 11 parts and 6 of them are built (blue).
Pipe #3 has 13 parts and they're all finished (grey).

Idea for errorcubes – Special biome: Errorworld

Errorcubes have special data which leads mission control to an unknown and mysterious biome. The scanners of DRG can only track this biome if a player uses one of his storaged errorcubes.

This biome is a complete mash-up of every other biome at Hoxxes IV. Every caveroom there could be a combination of every structurelement, cave algorithm or enemietype of each biome which currently exists. In the first room you can encounter a room from magmacore but with icecicles, windtunnels and sandstorms. The next room is glacical strata but with radioactive and electrical crystals. What freaky stuff is in the next room? Who knows? Of course Errorworld itself gives its own unique vibes. Own structures, colours and maybe enemietypes. A cool thing would be that each room isn´t connected with an earthpath but with a purple errorcube shard wall. Gives a feeling that you break through into another dimension.

What do you do there? Maybe typical mining stuff or special missiontypes. You can find an absolute rare mineral there to buy unique cosmetics or upgrade your weapon with errorworld-buffs. This errorworld biome could also be a good third deep dive mission. But you need someone in your team who must have an errorcube as a key. Many possibilities. But the general idea is Errorworld.

Another slight quality of life change would be calss recognition... Not Visual class recognition, but specific voicelines only 1 or maybe 2 dwarves can say... Yes there is the "Explosives placed" but if you ping the explosive any dwarf will say it. For example, if a scout is hooked up to a wall and there is no ground below him, he should say something like:"I need a platform here!" "Help, I am stuck!" "I am going to fall!!!". Others are for friendly engineers, if there is an empty sentry, pinging it would make the engineer say:"Need help reloading" or something.. The more voiceline variety, the better.

There's an issue going around regarding the Interplanetary Miners Union, some players that i have encountered through discord, including myself in the beginning, found it challenging to understand how everything works. I suggest a more elaborative explanation on how this system works. One thing to note is the reward system, i feel like the amount of rewards need to be increased, and the variety of rewards gained should be increased as well. The maximum reward of 18,000 credits does not seem sufficient enough to the amount of work that needs to be put in to be deemed ...well rewarding, similarly to the respective factions (Dirt Diggers/Cave Crawlers/Mighty Miners) mining nearly 50 million crafting materials to only get anywhere from 90-110 Croppa, Jadiz or Umanite is just not worth it at all, it feels like a chore. I suggest that drg need to add other rewards, it being cosmetic - just more crafting materials, in the 300-500 range. To make sure every person pulls their own weight during the progress countdown, each player must complete a set target of how much minerals they need to mine to receive the rewards in the end.

Resuggesting my idea from above about the total nitra cost for clarification purposes:

So, in the heat of battle, when im requesting a supply pod in mid fight, i can see if we have 80 nitra or not as the supply pod is either orange (below 80) or white (above 80), but it doesnt tell us how much above 80 when its white.
Why is this important? Because in the heat of battle, you may want to know if you're 'allowed' to spend 80 nitra for a supply pod in an off location since you're in dire need of ammo/health, so personally i find myself pressing the supply pod > pressing the ping tool to check how much nitra we have exactly > confirming we're quite above 80 so this wont be an economic disaster later on in game > actually requesting the supply pod.

With showing the total amount of nitra in the supply pod button, we'll gain all of this info in one key stroke, saving us precious time (again, think of the heat of battle situations) calling for economically-safe supply pods.

New mutator idea – Warning: Corruption

„A strange affliction is giving some enemies an unnerving amount of power. Don´t get hit by them or you´ll get corrupted“

It is important to say that not every enemy is corrupted but every enemytype can be corrupted. I would say 25-35% of every wave are corrupted enemies. They have more HP, deal more damage and shine in a strange light or are infested with something. Either way, you will spot them easily.

If you get hit by a corrupted enemy you will get „vulnerable“ for a couple of seconds. If you die in that state (in any way) or get killed by a corrupted enemy your body gets afflicted with „Corruption“. You lose 20% max. HP for the rest of this missions. This effect can stack until you only have 1 max. HP left.

Tactic: Simply kill the corrupted enemies first and avoid them attacks as many times as you can.

I was thinking for the Gunner, as a thought on an additional primary weapon, something a little less lawnmower, something a little more heavy cannon style - we have the minigun for high ROF, we have the Thunderhead that does nice for the Autocannon, what I'm thinking is something with a Lower RoF but more Damage, heavy armor tearing, likely blowthrough inherent, basically a semi-auto high-velocity punch-cannon.. in essence it's basically that kind of straight-punch weapon.. you'd have to balance it against the PGL and the Breach Cutter, but like I said this is more of a mostly single target and/or the targets behind it kind of weapon, where the PGL detonates on impact, and the Breach Cutter's got its other bonuses.. give it maybe a three round magazine, but something for the gunner with a bit more precision strike capability.. so it still fits the gunner style..

i think there should be an assignment that gets you to do missions with negative modifiers as a means for new players to get a taste of modifiers before they step foot into their first deep dive, it could help with new players to get adjusted to the increase in difficulty that most of them provide.

crimson locust Nov 17, 2020, 3:38 PM

i also have some suggestions for modifiers and anomalies too, the modifiers i had in mind are one that works similar to exploder infestation or mactera plague that works for naedocytes something along the lines of naedocyte horde where naedocytes have an increased spawn and it increases if not, guarentees you run into naedocyte breeders or maybe a modifier that works similar to lethal enemies but with projectile attacks so that affects stuff like spitball shots, acid spitter and web spitter attacks, dreadnaught fireballs etc. maybe an anomoly could be added as well where it makes it so all environmental damage ( except gravity aka fall damage ) is increased, it would lead to a smart dwarf taking advantage of the hazards around to deal with enemies such as setting off explosive plants, leading enemies past fire gysers or electricity crystals, i would have thought of it as a modifier at first but its similar to volitile guts in that asphect, its something that can both be bad for you but also bad for the enemy.

Cold Radiance and Heat Radiance are far too weak in comparison to their alternative upgrade choices. They are barely noticeable and hardly effective. Targets explode deletes swarmers with only 1 click while shatter makes the Cryo cannon have damage that meets up to the flamethrower. I do not think there is any saving for these two upgrades and suggest replacements.

Some suggestions as follows

CRSPR:

Multi-Nozzle: Fire three randomly aimed jets of fire for the price of 1 ammo.
Liquid Additive: Instead of a jet of fire, you spray a stream of gravity based inflamed liquid. Just like the Classics.
Accelerant: Pushes you back while you fire. Hold the power of flight in a fire based firearm.

Cryo:

Water Vapors: Frozen stay frozen and debuffed by cold longer. A freeze time increase by about 3 seconds on all targets.
Contraband Coolant: Frozen enemies leave behind a pool of cold on death.
Armor Shredder: Enemies that break free from being frozen lose all their armor.

Secondary weapon for Scout: Dwarven Disruptor Disk! (DDD) The DDD is a frisbee-like weapon that the scout can toss at enemies. Does low damage, but can bounce between enemies. Has unlimited ammo, recharges like flares. The DDD can also be used to knock resources off the wall, useful for collecting those hard-to-reach nitra veins and alien fossils. Upgrading the DDD allows for a wide variety of effects such as slow on hit, increasing number of bounces between enemies, increased range, causing fear on smaller enemies nearby if a larger enemy is killed by the DDD, giving it a permanent glow effect like a flare, etc. A skilled player could launch the DDD, switch to their other weapon and unleash a combo attack while the DDD is still bouncing between enemies. I believe this would give the Scout much needed sustain against large swarms while not making him "overpowered" or out-shining other classes crowd clearing abilities.

New victory pose of you find a swarmer on you and rip it in half (and toss the two halves on the ground)

One thing that myself and my friends have noticed while playing DRG is the weighting of enemies towards smaller, swarm based enemies rather than larger ones - the vast majority of deaths a player has are therefore usually from smaller enemies.
In my opinion, this reduces the viability of certain weapons intended for high single target damage, in particular, the minigun which in our experience is an inferior pick on all missions apart from dreadnought simply due to the fact that the autocannon is far better at dealing with swarms which comprise the vast majority of enemies.
While the argument could be made that oppressors, praetorians, warders are enough I'd argue they don't serve to increase the attractiveness of single target damages as they aren't lethal enough - the scout and driller for example focusing them with cryo weapons is often more than enough.
Similarly, while an argument could be made about Bet-C and the Korlok being good uses of the minigun, those are random, meaning you can't really plan for them and even if the mingun would be the superior choice in these circumstances they're in so few missions it doesn't really factor into decision making.
Therefore, in order to increase the diversity of enemies and increase the viability of single target weapons like the minigun I'd like to suggest a praetorian variant of the slasher. Slasher's are already lethal and an even more lethal, larger variant would help increase the viability of single target weapons such as the minigun due to the threat they pose.

TLDR: Glyphid Praetorian Slasher to act as a threatening lethal, large single target.

Just had a Tyrant weed spawn right next to the morkite extraction platform. And the drop pod landed right next to the weed, so it was activated immediately. If we could not have Tyrants directly next to our base of operation, that would be nice.

Please just make it wait longer until it wails, like 50% health on a peice.

I have a suggestion for a new enemy type: Glyphid XYZ Spitters (biome-related), on top of the already existing acid and web spitters. They'd spit fire / ice / radioactive sludge if in the correct biome, they can only come up in biomes that would offer such an element they can spit at you.

This'd do three things:

Increase the need to check above you.
Increase the amount of special effects threat upon the player, instead of "just damage". I like web spitters for this, too.
Further increases identiy of biomes by actually shifting how many of each type of enemy show up.

I can't tell if it's possible, but how about giving cryo kill credits for freezing enemies to the Driller. For me, it feels kinda unrewarding freezing a majority of hostiles and having less kills on the counter than scout at the mission end. Maybe split the kill count between Driller and the player who finished the kill?

I was thinking of ways to fix the problems with molly lagging behind in escort missions. A thought I had before is to just remove molly, and to deposit directly into doretta. After you call the drop pod, doretta shoots a pod like in point extraction out of the cave, and then all you have to do is make it to the drop pod.

Another idea is to have Molly somehow attached to doretta, releasing when she runs out of fuel. That way you could backtrack through the cavern for minerals.

booze idea
name: naedocyte energy
description: "this drink is probably illegal, made of ground up naedocyte stingers and lots of caffiene, dwarves who drink it can accomplish feats that would scare a praetorian, but watch the heart!"
appearance: the drink would crackle with electricity and be visibly bubbling, the mug would be made of metal and have a naedocyte sticker on it, the foam would be the color of naedocyte blood
effects: its like a very delayed blackout stout, you deal increased melee damage, run faster, jump higher, and destroy ore in a single hit before being downed via a heart attack, the shock overlay slowly but surely grows before encasing the screen when you are inevitably downed by the stuff until you are picked back up
once the timer runs out your character would abruptly clutch their chest and keel over, needing to be picked up to continue dwarfing and also learning that naedocyte shocks hurt even in drink form

New Joke Beer idea;
Nayaka Cocktail (Name Pending)
"Equal parts military-grade adrenaline, Nayaka Trawler venom and red sugar extract, this exotic cocktail will have even the surliest dwarf vibrating with barely-contained energy. Just be warned - management expects full reimbursement for any equipment damaged whilst under the effects of this drink."
Effect;
Causes the dwarf who drinks this impressive cocktail to begin vibrating uncontrollable around the space rig whilst laughing merrily. The speed of these vibrations slowly increases, until near the end of the drinks effect the dwarf is sent bouncing around the space rig like a rubber ball shot out a Deepcore 40mm
Alternatively, it could give a significant speed boost but hide the dwarf and instead show the trawler's "digging" effect and send the dwarf leaping through the air whenever they jump similar again to the trawlers effect.

Blast Armor (raised explosion damage resistance)
Spiked Treads (moving treads have a thorns affect - on us and the bugs!)
Afterburners (drill moves much faster but also requires more oil to refuel)

Game mode: Minecart madness.

Rolling out with the drop pod is a mine cart. The mine carts name is Carmen - you can pet her, stand on her, and deposit. The "go" button is in the cart. When petting Carmen the dwarves comment about how hot she is "spicy!" "hotter than Carl at the beach" etc. Carmen also has a small gun.

The goal is to get Carmen from the drop pod to the obsidian core. This is pretty different than Escort because you are making your own path. There is a compass on Carmen that shows where the obsidian core is. There are a number of challenges on the way. These are all my ideas of challenges for Carmen:

Building tracks and the chasm - Carmen's tracks are the same as the pipe from refining. But, a wide (like about maximum Zipline length) chasm is between you and the obsidian core. Luckily, parts to a bridge has been dropped down - dwarves must grab the pieces to install the bridge (or just reinforced pipe) to cross the chasm with Carmen. Involves collecting the pieces and constructing the bridge, and maybe the drop pods attracted a swarm in the process!

Carmen has a "heat" guage like doretta - and needs to be re-heated occasionally, otherwise, her movement slows to a crawl. The easiest way to do that is with a special fruit - lava spores. Deposit a lava spore (they slowly hurt you) at Carmen to heat her up. You can also deposit extras and the spheres will appear in the cart and will auto-feed.

Once at obsidian core, you have to pry it open with a big dwarven auto hammer. "thats the kind Karl carried around". The hammer makes a shit ton of noise and attracts swarms, and takes a few minutes to crack the egg-like obsidian core. Carmen is parked right under the obsidian core, and when it cracks, hot red-and-purple lava drops down into Carmen, who has a steam "choo choo".

Then, everyone piles into Carmen for a FAST ride back being absolutely swarmed with monsters for a dramatic escape as the train-horn attracts another swarm!

Could you make it so you still get something if you get disconnected toward the end of a mission?

I got disconnected. So, I got nothing, no gold, no minerals, et to hell with my assignment.
This is... mildly frustrating.

Miner (hehe) suggestions towards how the "point" system works by the end of the round:

The Harder to kill enemies you kill,the more points you get,for example,here is a rough chart of what enemies would give this and that much points:
Peaceful mobs wont give any points,since they arent lethal (except Hoarders maybe)
Swarmer,Grunt,Slasher,Guard,Acid,Web,Exploder,etc (all small to mid-small enemies): 1 point
Pretorian,Menace,Warden,Cave Leech,Mactera Spawn,Grabber,Goo Bomber,Breeder,Spitball,etc(all mid to mid-large enemies): 2 points
Opressors,Machine events: 3 points
Dreadnought,Bulk,Crassus: 5 points

Another good idea would be assist points,they wouldnt be as good as kills,but would still give credit to ones that dealt a LOT of damage,but most kills got stolen by teammates,since they "finished" the enemies,or just use a system of: Who delt more damage to the enemy,would be concidered it's killer.

#

Some might disagree that this is a good idea,but I think it is a lot more fair that the person who delt the most damage is the more valuable player,then the one who just tapped the enemy and got the kill. Sconk

In-level mineral containers that are locked behind a C.O.D. system. A player can hold "E" on the container to spend the credit amount on the front to unlock it, spewing out mineral chunks. The amount of minerals within is scaled such that resale value on the mineral trade is slightly less than the locker's cost to open. This lets one player be generous for everyone else on the team, "making it rain" a good amount of valuables for the other miners who may be friends or appreciative greenbeards.

If the player is solo or no one has the credits or inclination to open it, the locker can be mined up or broken with a pickaxe and deposited, leading to a modest credits payout at the end of the mission.

Rework the Face-Melter overclock for the CRISPR so it feels more like an unstable OC.

My suggestion:
+2 fire damage converted per 10 base heat applied.
x0.25 Heat damage multiplier (after damage conversion)
+3.6 Flow Rate
-75 Max Fuel
-25 Tank Size
x0.25 Movement Speed while using

This will make the tier 2 heat upgrade equal to the damage upgrade, and turn the tier 5 radiance upgrade from a 80/80 fire/heat damage per second split to an effective 120/20 fire/heat per second split.

Overall the idea is to make the overclock a "diving" sidegrade, giving the driller a big DPS increase when they're basically in melee range of bugs, with the risk of miscalling a dive and getting into a bad spot and possibly being overrun due to the movement speed modifier and reduced tank size/increased flow speed which hampers sustained damage for swarms.

The description could mention that the fuel has been modified to burn much hotter and faster but as a result doesn't set targets alight so much as it snap-fries the exterior of it.

Minerals like Enor Pearls and Umanite just feel like glorified currency. They are just a little underwhelming to collect like collecting everything you see in Fallout 4 because you might need it later. It would be neat if they had some value in mission gameplay like crafting consumable items only usable in that mission. After the mission, the special items are discarded from the inventory.

Take for instance, a super flare that doesn't burn out that scout could craft using minerals.

It sucks having thousands and thousands of minerals and nothing to do with them because I already bought everything I like.

Description: As you get to higher hazard levels, shield starts to fall off. I feel like a drink to bring more attention to shield would be cool. I thought the name "Blue Bulb Blaster" sounded nice because it is made of Barley Bulbs, and the shield bar is blue. Plus Red Rock Blaster is a health increase, and has "Blaster" in it.

- 1. Could provide a 30% increase in shield, and make it regen sooner.
- 2. Could make it so if you have shield fully charged, any damage taken beyond the shield bar will only damage the shields.

New mission where llyod the bartender comes with the dwarves to harvest space milk from an Udderslug, a massive 8 meter long and 5 meter around white space slug. Lloyd when directed will proceed to harvest barrels of the milk from the slug, occasionally Lloyd will hurt it and cause it to burrow to a new portion of the cave. Upon completion, the slug will be completely deflated and burrow into the ground to feast on the rich minerals to produce the milk once again.

Statuseffect „fear“ on dwarfes

Since many statuseffects for enemies can also apply on players, I thought of an idea how fear can work on dwarfes.

Some glyphids have a special pattern on their bodies. Something like an illuminate skull or a another spooky design. This pigmentations are very frightening for dwarfes. When this type of glyphid comes near in a players sight of view (maybe smth. like 3-5m.) fear slowly kicks in. This effect persists as long as this enemy stays alive in your (close) POV.

Fear: This statuseffect is limiting dwarfes POV making it hard for them too see clearly and hear enemies around them. I have two ideas how this may work:

You get a stronger nightmare hallucination effect like you experience from Blacklock Lager. Maybe with more black fog around the edges and more „uuuuuuuhu“ sounds or smth. like that.
You get a tunnelvision effect and a bit ringing in the ears.

To calm yourself from fear, you simply have to look away from this enemy for about 1-2 seconds. But you can´t just turn around and stand still for a couple of seconds during the heat of a fight. The best way is either kill them first or run away and fight back when the effect is gone. I think this would be a good mechanic to simulate fear on dwarfes.

When selecting a mission, you could mark a small box that asures you that an event for using matrix cores will spawn in that area but it comes at a cost. Perhaps 10000 gold or half of the missions outcome. If it is not marked you have no costs and the event spawn chance is low as usual.

Turret Arc OC buff

When active (meaning turret being electrocuted), turret would also fire rounds with electrocute % chance like rounds from Stubby have. This would make it far less situational OC and more viable when used with a single Mk2 turret as well.

Balancing-wise, electrocution % chance of turret's rounds might be different for Gemini and MK2 - Gemini might have flat 20 % chance to electrocute and Mk2 might have 30 % chance or so. Also, would be great if we could "reactivate" electrocution (meaning reset the timer until the effect wears off) anytime, not only after it actually wears off.

Ideas for more Hoxx variants of Glyphids:

Sandblasted Corridors: the Glyphids have evolved to utilize the bothersome sands. Praetorians and Exploders will spew out sand clouds upon death to heavily hinder your visions instead of damaging you. Slashers' slashes will blind you for short time instead of slowing you.

Magma Core: It seems like Glyphids here have developed a peculiar taste for volatile gas. Praetorians will breathe fire, dealing fire dmg, and leave a big cloud of heated air upon death. Spitters and Slashers will deal explosive/blast dmg, so be on the lookout!

Crystalline Caverns: the Glyphids here seem to have developed a strange diet of Electric Crystals. Exploders will leave a small but deadly electric field on death. Praetorians will charge itself with electricity then send a big pulse around it, dealing electric dmg. Slashers are a lot rarer and weaker here, but look out for Spitters, they got quite the slowing punch!

New weapon concept:

Engineer primary: "Sci-Fire" Retro Rayblaster
-- a heavy sci-fi handgun with a 2 shot burst normal attack and a continuous beam charged attack.
-- this weapon has damage fall off at longer range balancing its precise nature.
-- Attacks add heat to targets and can deal more damage to ignited enemies.
-- 2 shot burst normal shots for maximum pew pew. Lasers are hitscan and have a bit of recoil but little spread.
-- the beam charge attack activates once the trigger is held until maximally charged. The beam fires continuously as long as the trigger is held, you have ammo, and the weapon has not overheated. The beam can stunlock a single target.
-- this weapon has an overheat mechanic similar to the epc. It overheats rather quickly with rapid fire but the recovery rate is quick as well.
-- a mod option allows the beam to be used for mining minerals within a limited range.
-- possible heat based turret interactions.

Alright, this is a big one, and it'll take lots of explaining. This will either be loved or hated, but I'll shoot my shot.

Pre-Generated/Seeded, "glitch" missions.

That may sound unfitting at first, but let me explain. These types of missions (which I'll just call glitch missions from now on) massively shake up normal gameplay, even more so than mission modifiers. They aren't something that would be desirable to play as something added to normal missions, but they could be a fun thing to do a limited amount of times, by player choice.

The types of things I have in mind are things that would break normal balance in a fun way. Some ideas I had for these glitch missions are:

Double secondary objective mission.
Mission with no Nitra spawns.
Mission with all beer buffs active.
Missions with only 1 enemy type.
Missions with machine events as their objectives.
Elimination mission, with bulk detonators instead of dreads.
Mission with extremely hard terrain.

As you can see, they sound terrible, unbalanced, and like they would only be fun a few times. Much like many mission type suggestions tend to be. However, I think this is where those ideas could shine.

With pre-generated caves, glitch missions would be insanely easier to implement than things that would be included in cave generation. My main vision for these glitch missions are fun crazy experiences that are implementable with minimal extra coding, and reused assets.

So, how would you access these missions? Well, err23 looks like a good candidate... Error cubes could be spent in a glitch mission terminal to launch glitch missions. From a lore standpoint, perhaps these cubes have data detailing a mission inside them, but its been corrupted. These missions would be played in a "simulation." Rewards would be predetermined, like assignments.

I'd love to discuss this idea more, so please feel free to mention me in #suggestion-discussion. Any critique is appreciated! R&S!

I would like to suggest a weapon idea. If you guys/gals/shmlee want to add weapons to each character in the future, why not offer a short-range weapon for the driller that would pair well with the axes, like a jackhammer that helps with digging in aoe areas and also causes aoe damage, but does most damage when directly applied to a praetorian's anal cavity. I like the AOE factor on the driller items, but I feel the C4 butler of Deep Rock could be a lot of fun by going hand-to-hand with bugs along with a new drilling tool.

Gunner Class rework suggestions - Gamer tag MrBIG951, Blue level 1189, As it is now, with an equally skilled player, Engineer will almost always beat the Gunner in kills by 20-30%. The Gunner should nearly always lead in kills, based on the Class. With Re-balancing of the weapons/overclocks/grenades this could be accomplished. Zip lines also need reworked to make the gunner more valuable/needed; add 2 more zip lines, increase the vertical angle by 10° up and down, make Zip lines faster and harder to be knocked off of. As it is now the Gunner Class is my least fun and least played Class, yet I still enjoy the Gunner and still play this class. With some reworking the Gunner could be more fun to play and viable and a crucial class to take and play on missions.

burnt gust Nov 26, 2020, 12:26 AM

#

so the idea I have is a holographic/laser type weapon, limited uses and "powers down" when out of ammo so its useless when inactive. they would deal the same type of damage as like the EPC or breach cutter so vamp wont proc from them. each class gets their own weapon and each has a charge fire option that consumes more ammo (think scouts M1000)

gunner-heavy axe, big downward swings like a power attack effects bugs and breaks armor, not rocks/dirt(these are not meant to replace pickaxe in anyway). charged attack throws axe forward and it comes back(return to sender like).

Driller- spear/halberd, horizontal sweeps in front keeping his CC abilities, Charged attack throws weapon then has it return, or a 360 spin(new way to down teammates).

Engineer- war hammer, similar to gunners axe but faster and with less damage. charged throw (you get the idea).

Scout- short sword/dagger. low damage and range except against weakpoints which would deal more too. charge attack would not throw the weapon but probably do a lunge forward as they stab.

mods for each weapon can increase battery life(ammo), damage, range, secondary effects slows, stuns, fears. and OC's could enhance these more splash damage for hammer, lighting arcs, new damage types.

Prevent the Dash ability from being stopped by the slow-down you get from being hit by Naedocyte Shockers (Not ones from Breeders), and Glyphid Slashers.

#

OR

Change the Unstoppable perk to include negating a percentage of the slow-downs you get from being hit by these enemies.

#

ORE (haha)

Just have the slow-downs be less effective in general. In most games having your movement speed, or ability to effectively play, crippled is a something that tends to ruin the fun for the moment. It's certainly a different case in a PvE game, but this is mainly for the sake of suggestion.

Just idea for visuals to make the game feel more connected, the loading screen after a mission will show the drop pod flying to the bottom of the Space rig, similar style as the loading screen when you enter a mission. Additionally after a mission you will be in the drop pod (Like when you are first deployed) and it has a short docking animation before you get out into the rig, dwarves that were left behind will spawn in the med bay as usual.

Indicate AoE of the detonator's stomp:

It seems to either deal full damage or no damage, so you are ded if you have miscalculated the distance
If you behind it, you can't really see it winding up its attack, so you can't really hit and run it if you have a close range loadout.
It could be a temporary terrain texture change similar to magma biome. Or it could exhaust some gas to make it look like thermobaric explosion (it doesn't really make sense that it tantrum slaps you midair anyway)

Suggestion: REMOVE DORRETA FROM DEEP DIVE MISSIONS UNTIL BUGS ARE FIXED. I've lost 3 Times now because of BUGS in the Dorreta mission. 3 DEEP DIVES IN A ROW. First one the Drilldozer just wouldn't go to the hearthstone. She circled and circled around it, but never went to it. The 2nd one, Dorreta in the 2nd to last cave did a 180 and mined a 400 METER TUNNEL back to where the drop pod landed, centered perfectly around it, did another 180, and sat there. And the third, dorreta took a constant 1% damage every 2 seconds, making it impossible to leave her alone for the seconds we needed during a large wave where 2/3rds of our team went down. Dorreta missions are fun! BUT THEY'RE BUGGY AS FRICK, I DON'T KNOW MAYBE IT'S JUST MY LUCK!?!?!?! I haven't been able to do the last 2 EDDs and the last EDD because of it, so before adding them in Deep Dives, devs, please fix.

I remember an old roadmap that promise daily adventure, and got some idea a few days ago.
So, my suggestion is:

Daily Assignment: Space Rig Maintenance

The crew begins mission in a little room with airlocks. When everyone ready, someone push the button and open it. Crew going to open space nearby Space Rig (probably the space behind big panoramic window). The map has limited area - some kind of Gunner's shield, but more bigger and it works on the contrary. It let things in, but don't let it out (call it maintenance field, if you want), cause it didn't costs so much energy as full shield. So, dwarfs can't fly away from the station.
There a lot of orbital trash near station - barrels, asteroids from the belt, spare parts and other stuff. This attracted some new enemies - Hrazar Barracudas and Dradhar Morays (of course name could be changed). This weird and dangerous space "fishes" eats some orbital trash and metal, and they tasted our Space Rig. Some of the systems were damaged, so dwarfs need to fix it.

Objectives:

Take out some orbital trash.

Repair an orbital communication system (that big antennas that we see in a panoramic window)

Repair some damage on Space Rig's hull.

Repair damaged Rig's turrets, that take out orbital trash.

Of course, that objectives could be mixed. 2 objectives in one mission, or all 4, it depends from developers decision. Secondary objective could be "Collect damaged APDs (you know, Bosko)".
And, of course, barracudas and morays will try to attack brave repair crew. Mechanics combine "Low Gravity" and "Low O2" - dwarfs need to jump beetwen places and replenish oxygen in special stationar points. Low gravity is lazy way, of course, better do some jetpack mechanics.
When the crew do their job, Mission Control opens airlock again for all team - like a Drop Pod.

That's a draft, but I think, you got the idea. Hope you'll use something from this concept. Rock and stone!

Three ideas while playing with friendos!

Beer Drinking Contest?
Sometimes when the dwarf will drink his beer, he'll say "Last one to finish is a pointy eared leaf lover" or something along those lines. It got me thinking, what if that was actually a thing? Where for example, the faster you mash a key on the keyboard, the faster the dwarf will drink, making it a contest when drinking together ! :D

New Beers ideas!
"The Buggy Beer" - You know those adorable loot bugs? Yeah. What if there was a beer that made you temporarily transform into one just because they're this adorable and deserve the love? We do kill them on a daily basis, we owe them tributes! :( Maybe even sometimes you get lucky enough to become a golden loot bug! :O

"Morekite's Mighty Stout" - Just your average drink, except...Super strong potency and- Oh crap are you hallucinating or are you just made of morkite!? :O...Basically makes the dwarf drinking it become fully made of morkite coloured skin. Because why not! Morkite satisfying and pretty :3

"Wish I could ride these like the pipelines!"
"Can't ride these pipes!"
"I hate walking..."
"No surfing for me, I guess."

Error Cube Use: a grenade that looks a lot like a single segment of the cube. When touched by an enemy it begins to shine and after a short delay vanishes in a flash, leaving a cube of solid rock behind and either 'freezing' the enemy until said cube is broken (with a re-textured freeze animation), deleting an enemy entirely (for small enemies) or teleporting them to a random part of the map, with higher probability of them appearing in areas closer by. Can also be set off manually by shooting it. Allows for creating a platform on solid ground, and you can carry 9 of them (because if solid that's how many are in one error cube), Alternately could fire lasers that deal damage from each side, and cut very small (1 unit of polygon in width) holes in everything.
Also the tooltip is corrupted and says varied versions of 'What an odd use for a key.'

New Biome:
Limestone Caverns

This type of biome would have huge and small white stalagmites and stalactites, and all the other kinds of structures a limestone cave has, like giant columns with platform like protrusions which's underside have alternating waves (For example: https:// i.pinimg.com/564x/bf/da/45/bfda4550867fd72369c4e3faff678844.jpg)
Also these caves are usually wet so it could have some dangerous slippery surfaces (flowstones) that are not on ground level, ofcourse they would have a differnet color to indicate that. Medium sized stalagmites could also pose a threath just like irl, if you fall on them you would take more fall damage. And ofcouse stalactites could fall down just like in other biomes of the game, Here is a good reference pic for the types of structures that could generate: https:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalagmite#/media/File:Labeled_speleothems.jpg
As for extra decor, they could have completely white creatures like the ones in earth which live in complete darkness. Maybe some specially evolved fantasy plants which are used to such wet and limey conditions.
It's color palette would consist of yellowish/brownish white.

For now this is all I could come up with, there definetly need to be a few more risk factors in the biome, maybe the lime would get in your weapons making them reload slower until you clean them somewhere.

Update idea: Back to Basics

An update allowing the players to get their hands on some stuff from back before the Dwarves even left their planet. Clothes and armor giving 2nd hand mentions to events in their history, and even multi barreled muskets and rapid fire crossbows. Considering that Dwarves are often the master craftsmen of the forge in fantasy, I feel like it wouldn’t be too far fetched for some ye olde weaponry from a long gone era just so DRG can go medieval on the insecticide asses of Hoxxes. Cosmetics would do us fine but going the extra mile and giving us ~~old~~ new toys to play with would be appreciated. Thank you, and Rock and Stone.

This is a mechanic for a beam weapon in DRG. This isnt a complete weapon concept.
Vaporize:
The beam has a weakpoint modifier that increases as long as the beam is attacking a weakpoint up to a cap. This bonus depletes quickly when switching targets. Let's say you start at +0%, you gain +5% per tick at 8 ticks per second, or a rate of 40% per second. After 2.5 seconds you hit the cap of +100%. If the weapon is balanced by overheat/ power depletion then this could be a really interesting mechanic.

Expanding on the Water Cannon idea, have it have an alternate firing mode, one mode more pushing like a fire hose (longer range), the second being like a steel cutter (pinpoint high velocity water stream, shorter range), obviously could make wet area to be electrocuted or frozen.

#

Also Mission Type idea, you're sent in to try and prevent an environment cataclysmic event from happening and ruining future mining in area, like you have to build a dam or reroute a lava flow or install atmosphere generators bc its turning into a airless void, or install a cooling system to prevent overheating in area.

Expanding on the Black Hole gun idea, how bout you have to choose a surface to fire it at and the weapon sustains the effect which costs ammo, that way you have to be selective when you fire it but when you place and maintain it the damage is huge.

I love how the game is structured in that really high level players can play with lower level players, but I wish weapon upgrading was more linear for longer. If we could continue upgrading the weapons as our level increases that'd be excellent. I know overclocks exist, and those are great, but they don't quite act as an upgrade a lot of the time. It could be structured so that there are extensions on weapon upgrades, but only for deep dives, so that higher level players could still play with lower level players in normal missions, but also give a more linear endgame weapon upgrade system.

Mission Type suggestion:
I had the idea of combining all the mission types into a super rare ultimate mission.
It would start off with (Part 1) On-site Refining and Point Extraction leading into (Part 2) Escort Duty and ending with a (Part 3) Salvage Operation.
Throughout the mission Mining Expedition, Egg Hunt, and Elimination will be active until there completion.
At the start of part 2 you will be given or asked to repair a large M.U.L.E which will accompany you until the completion of all your primary objectives up until the repairing of all mini-M.U.L.E.s in part 3.
The large M.U.L.E will not be recallable after repairing all the mini-M.U.L.E.s until all other primary objectives have been completed.

This mission would be locked to all players which have not completed all other mission types.

Note: This mission might double the chance of random events and special creature encounters appearing during the mission.

Biomes could have certain changes, and occurrences dependent on depth. For instance the bog might have stagnant pools further down, and creatures in those pools, while higher areas have more vegetation. Deeper crystal caves could have walking electrical crystals as a passive mob (harmless unless near one another, or electrical crystals) and that sort of thing. Certain biome-specific structures, formations, and mobs only occur within a specific range of the randomized depth range for that biome to result in each biome feeling like it has shallow, deep, middling, and abyssal areas.
Similar to how coral reefs at different depths of the ocean can have very different coloration, density, and formation patterns. In general deeper depths would have more and more hyper-adapted creatures for that biome, while higher areas would have more passive creatures and objects in general.
This would likely be a very significant quantity of work sadly but could be well worth it.

Muzzle flash lighting up a set area depending on the weapon for a split second, but in a more noticeable way then the current animation. If you have ever used an AK at night you know why this can actually be really scary, because it makes you feel like your weapon isn't helping and adds a panicking atmosphere if there is something out there. clearly the less ammo a weapon has the more viable it should be for a split-second light source, but never one good enough to be more then an emergency measure for light. Picture it: shapes coming at you in the dark, grusom visages illuminated for a single instant by the flash of your firing into the endless hoard...
Because DRG could be so much scarier with a minor tweak...
Oh and the flash is most noticable on your surroundings- NOT standing behind the gun. Unless you are using a PPsH-41 or something ejecting gas in your face it's mostly just the surroundings lighting up, so we could get rid of some of the annoying current muzzle-flash issues. It should only be that bright from the... business end so to speak.

Berserker Perk Change

When activated the Dwarf lets out a battlecry, the screen gets a bloody effect around the edges during the duration.
During it's duration, the dwarf wields his pickaxe two handed, it's attacks affecting a small arc in front of him and dealing power attack dmg (for when you really got to dig through a swarm). The dwarf cannot use other weapons during the duration.

Unless killed, bugs feel immune to the pull of gravity. It would be cool to see Glyphids more susceptible to gravity/kinetic forces. For instance, bugs on collapsing earth fall instead of float.

Imagine a new mission type with a unique big bug. A fight that changes as parts breaks off like a Kulve Taroth raid. To aid in this, we could have special pickup guns that work like oil shale canisters - limited availability, causes crowd control or damage, right click to throw.
There are already gameplay mechanics for all of this separately. Tyrants have modular parts and HP triggers, oil canisters are pickups with fire modes, and many bugs have destructible armor. The big problem is designing a boss encounter with player's ability to modify terrain...

My friend and I came up with some missions the day before the opening of this channel, but I wrote here just now because before I was too lazy to do it. (oh, we just not noticed this channel before)

Mission: deep-hole drill

Main objective: mining Mossy Kaminite (can only be obtained with a laser drill)

The beginning of the mission:

The capsule arrives at a special installation on which there are 3 laser drills, 2 fuel cells and a large drill below.
You press a button somewhere on the rig and drilling starts down
When you start drilling the road, you will have more or less space with
minerals such as nitra, gold and the caminite itself (depending on the biome there will be special minerals)
You will be attacked by swarms that will try to destroy the fuel cells

End of mission:

You will dig for a certain amount of time and get a certain amount of mossy kaminite, depending on which one you are difficulty and your drill stops as it hits a layer of non-digging rock.

sugegstion for a (probably DD exlusive)mission
due to an unknown issue the dropod stops and you have to startup an uplink
(you would get an automated message saying thet there has been an unknown error any you have to conenct to mission control for remote diagnosis(if youre not dead), or the mission gets written off and you wipe)

when it finishes it would start a timer(2-5 min) to do the remote diagnosis, and send down a supply pod with some spare parts. you would have to fix the drop pod and continue with your main mission.

When a cave leech is killed, it should leave a 'stump' of what was left of it (maybe with the little tentacles (not the main one) hanging should it be killed while grabbing a dwarf), similar to how gunk seeds leave a 'stump' once harvested.

Removing 'stumps' could be via weapon fire or pickaxe, similar to how objects in caves are removed (wall eye, tumors in the radioactive exclusion zone)

It doesn't feel too natural to just have a leech turn into a 'cup' in the cave ceiling.

Salvage operation suggestion: Make the up-link box part of the drop pod
It's not really a huge change, but I feel like it would make the mission a bit more interesting, as well as more lore consistent (Why is there an up-link box just lying around next to the drop pod?). The idea is to change the up-link box so that it's no longer just spawned in a random area around the drop pod, but instead is a physical part of the drop pod.

📎 dropPodEdit1.png

#

This change will also fix the occasional issue where the uplink box spawns in hidden away locations such as in this image:

📎 weirdUpLinkLocation.jpg

#

Furthermore, to try and differentiate the up-link objective from the fuel cell objective, the up-link objective should be given a larger triangulation zone (Green area you must stand in) that is centered on the drop pod. This triangulation zone change would force players to use different strategies for the up-link objective. It would entirely remove the ability for the driller to move the up-link box to a lower location, while opening up the possibility for more kiting-focused strategies. This new activation area would give players a new way to deal with bosses like bulk detonators (A slightly deadlier version of ring-around-the-rosie), and would force players to get creative when dealing with several waves of flying enemies at once (no more bunker to funnel them towards you).

Random idea I had while looking at the glyphid models, The Steve system (WIP name). The idea is that with a certain perk you can pick maggots up and put them on your back (one at a time), & depending on what color maggot you picked up you can bring them back to the shuttle and start having them gain exp by going on missions with you, originally they will be useless but eventually they will cocoon and become swarmers, then grunts, and possibly branching off depending more what color they are. This could also allow for you to bring Steve back to the base.

Rock and stone dear developers. Big respect for what you are doing, I really love the game itself and the quality and originality of the content that you systematically add. I apologize in advance for poor English. I have an idea for a random event on the map. This is a kind of boss, but killing him is not positioned as an event or a mission task. This is exactly a random situation. And it may not fit the current lore of the game, but I heard that you will be adding new enemies and I think my idea will be appropriate. The idea:
at the start of the mission, when we’re drilling into the planet a huge worm can accidentally attack us (for example, like the sand worm from the "Dune" movie), which eats the whole capsule. Thus, the mission begins inside the worm, and so the battle begins. I imagine this as a level where we run through the worm to its mouth, also there’ll be a gastric juice of the worm catches up with us, which can cause us periodic damage if we start to be late. We need to get to the mouth as quickly as possible.

#

Alternatively, along the way, we will need to perform cooperative actions in order to move forward (for example, to remove the organs of the worm that block our path, or to put jacks that push the blocking flesh of the worm - twist some kind of mechanism for several dwarves together). When we reach the mouth (roughly speaking, we pass the first phase of the boss), the worm spits us out into the arena (maybe it will be an underground bunker with closed doors - that is, the worm breaks through the wall of the bunker), on which defensive equipment from past dwarves remains - to destroy such creatures ... With the help of this equipment (maybe lasers or harpoons that tear off the scales of the worm) now we will have to pierce the skin of the worm and open its weak points which we can destroy with our conventional weapons. At this time, the worm attacks with various types of attacks (for example, a stream of bile in a circle, or summons beetles, etc.). After killing a worm (or if this is an option with a bunker, doors open), boxes (mules) fall out of its body in which there are some minerals or rewards for completing this event (maybe part of a set of armor or skins for weapons in the style of this worm). Thanks in advance if you pay attention to this idea, I hope to see something similar when ever in the game. Good luck with your work.

Record more insertion sequence conversations and make it so that the conversation that plays takes into account which dwarves are present in the pod (including a monologue from each dwarf for solo drops/if there is only 1 type of dwarf present).

In the weapon mod selection screen, we can see what each mod adds and subtracts from the general weapon propperties, but we dont see what the currently chosen mod does unless we remove it and then hover our mouse on it.
Let us see the same iteration of green and red numbers for chosen mods but with the specific mod we are hovering our mouse at.

So for example, if we select a mod that gives +2 damage, only when its not picked and then hoevered at, we can see a green '+2' digit in the damage of the weapon. Make it so we always see it while hovering over that mod, even if it has been picked already.

Seeing as we will be getting two new biomes in Update 33, I think Quantrite should be re-implemented as a crafting mineral for the both of them, as an excavated resource similar to Enor Pearl and Jadiz. It would help balance out the distribution of all the other minerals (instead of getting 4 biomes with Magnite, for instance), and add a little more charm to the new biomes.

(if it doesn't already) exploder infestation should increase your chance for a bulk detonator

Change the Nuerotoxin grenade so that only the driller can light it. Right now it's too unreliable because all the other classes have a way of lighting it up and usually will before the gas can even fully spread. It would be much more consistent and reliable if it was less flammable and needed a second or so of flamethrower fire to light it up.

Add a feature in the mission select that shows what mission assignment each room is doing, if they are doing any. It would make it easier for those only doing weekly assignments.

This might be a repost but it's worth saying.
Make it so that, with one player in the drop pod, and one character out of the drop pod in iron will, the mission doesnt end.
I was doing a 3 person and on extraction we had 1 in pod, 1 down outside of pod, and 1 down outside of pod who just triggered iron will, and so the mission ended anyway. We easily couldve gotten back up since the two players outside were next to each other. This totally jips us of some additional credits, and regardless of that, it feels bad when it happens. It feels totally bs.

First off I'd like to say, huge fan; I think you made a really excellent game here, and I appreciate it. If I may be so bold as to seek an audience with dwarfs grander still, I have an idea. Two words: Cave Meat.
The Pitch: Meat tucked away inside a wall is a staple of gaming's proud lineage, right alongside spikes and easter eggs. Imagine mining out something like a Jadiz or Compressed Gold, except it's a hock of meat, Flintstones style, that you can chuck around to the team. I love the comraderie of beers before missions, and I believe a quick lunch break between swarms is in order. It could bestow a portion of extra health, and would be a welcome sight when the caves are much more salty than sweet. I'm not sure how you'd preserve the game's balance (which is very good, if I may say so) but I'm sure you could invent some kind of horrible arachnid to compensate.
Thanks for reading, and for this fine game.

Less Escort Duty in weekly missions. - I'm fairly certain that since the mission type was released we haven't had a week where escort duty didn't show up in at least one of the core hunt, deep dive, or elite deep dive, and I'm honestly getting sick of seeing the mission there.

Expanding on this-

Ludonardis11/21/2020
Objective play score on summary screen

Sometimes one can be the most engaged in fixing dottie, bringing aquarks, building pipelines, fixing mules, getting eggs etc. And those things either dont translate to the kills/ resources score or are not distinguishable from the normal kills/mining.
It would be nice to see that „maybe he didnt kill much, nor mine much, but boy did he keep them pipes shiny”
They're are so many different types of enemies (thanks devs!), a single kill count doesn't accurately represent contribution toward killing bugs. I suggest a "Kill Score". Points are gained by dealing damage and bonus points for dealing at least ~40% of the damage to "big bugs"
In addition to Kill Score, you also have Objective Score-gaining points as Ludonardis described. AND Utility score.
Utility score would be unique per class but essentially you gain points based on:
Gunner: Duration Teammates were shielded, Times your ziplines were used
Engineer: Time + steps taken on platforms you placed
Scout: Bugs and minerals revealed by flares
Driller: Amount of stuff drilled/cleared (more involved would be: Amount of times teammates walked through spaces you drilled)
Some would be harder to measure/program than others but it's nice to see other metrics that you're contributing to the team.

Make it so killing Loot Bugs in one hit makes them pop instantly. The wiggling -> popping can be kept to them dying from repeated weak attacks, but I think if a power attack, throwing axe or strong explosive were to hit one they should just burst instantly.

Hello fellow miners, I have an idea for a new mission type. I posted this on reddit already and a lot people seemed to like it, so I want to share this idea here too for those who don't use reddit:

https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepRockGalactic/comments/k5gu9y/new_mission_type_idea_glyphid_grunt_research/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

First: Locate nests of grunts. Spread throughout the map are 2 - 4 nests rooms where a small amount of glyphid grunts are protecting it, after breaking through the walls of the nest you are met with those grunts attacking you.

Second: After clearing the nest out, a smaller different looking glyphid emerges from one of the nest holes, it is timid but harmless. When you go up to it, press and hold ‘E’ to give it some chum food, while it's eating, DRG sends down a cage, trapping the grunt.

Third: Build the highway to the drop pod. Now you must build bullet train tracks from the cage to drop pod. However, these tracks can be attached to all 4 sides of the terrain, they look very similar to the train in the Borderlands 2 Intro video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzZ8YtuiVD4, specifically 3:14 - 3:17, the part where the train connects to the rail). You can ride inside these tracks to and from the drop pod.

Fourth: Extraction of the grunt begins after pressing the button on the cage. A beam of light inside the tubes moves the grunt from the cage to the drop pod. As it’s being extracted a swarm of grunts attack you as they try to take back their own. You must repair any broken tracks and make sure the grunt doesn’t lose all of its health before it reaches the drop pod. Doing so results in a partial mission failure. You must extract at least half of the total grunts to complete the mission, numbers vary depending on the total amount needed to rescue.

First of all, this suggestion contains a lot of "sub-suggestion" and, even if i'm pretty sure some of them have already been posted, all of them form a bigger suggestion.
This is both feedback and suggestions.
I played about 40 Escort Duty mission since the update, and I really start to hate both the mission and the machine. I think about it, and I've come to one conclusion:
Escort Duties need some tweaks
The first point concern the Dives. In "non-Dotty" Dives, you can rush by dividing the team, gaining some time, thus leading to a "short" total time. You can't when you have Dotty in them. She's slow, will almost always have two stops, and will not go faster if only one dwarf is standing on it or near it (compared to no dwarf around)
Suggestions:

Make it faster when one dwarf is on it
Make it stop once in Dives
Theses missions also feels exhausting not because they're long or actually difficult, but actually because all the effects assault you. For every damage taken, you can have:
Doretta whining
A sound effect from the HUD, along with a flashing visual effect
The Dwarves screaming
The HUD on your left flashing
The Doretta damage sound effect (which I personally spot after installing a mob to limit the others).
And, of course, when Dotty takes damage, she'll take them for 5-6 seconds in average, so most of the effect will have the time to play 2 or 3 times.
This is really agressive, even more than the bugs (And not mentionning that entire swarms are not loud enough to cover any of these sounds)
Suggestion:
Limit some effects to bearings
Third point: Doretta is everywhere.
I'll take this week as an exemple, she's in Weekly priority assignments, and both DD's. This is way too much. I feel like every session I'm doing an escort mission, and this lowers my fun. We were all hyped by the new missions, but now the hype is gone, and this overabundance of Escort annoys players. [1/2, sug too long]

Trello Card #603 ; New Assignment Idea; Weekly Chaos Assignment

Weekly Chaos Assignments are a 3 mission long assignment offered at the beginning of each week. The first in the chain will have 2 random mutators, the second will have 3, and the last will have 4.

What kind of Gameplay Experience does the suggestion / idea add to the game?

Adds a new weekly assignment to allow for more rewards and replayability on a weekly basis

How does the suggestion /idea contribute to make the game better?

This offers more to players and variety to progressing further.

lost crane Dec 5, 2020, 12:37 AM

#

(This is the second paet of my suggestion, which was cut by character limitation and another suggestion)
Suggestion:

Lower the probability of Escort mission in assignments.
Final: Doretta doesn't pay much.
This is the part when I don't speak for myself because I don't look at the pay with 1k+ hours, but every green/limebeards I play with complains about the pay at the end of the mission. Mostly because you don't harvest gold to shorten the mission, spare Nitra for the final phase (as Dotty attracts swarm at stops).
Suggestion:
Make it pay more
I must admit, individually, theses points aren't that important, DRG is still a fun game and so is Duties. But combined, this is just too much, and I start to hate those missions, which were hella cool in the first place. [2/2, thanks for reading]

Make the drilldozer immune to radiation. It makes no sense that a machine takes rad damage, and I'm pretty sure radiation AOE is partly the cause of the drilldozer randomly taking persistent damage.

Would need to force the radiation praetorian to use its bite attack on the dozer, though. I'm pretty sure rad exploders technically already still do non-rad damage on explosion...

Would it be possible to add the option to change sound devices in the options menu? DRG likes to use the mic on my VR kit. I either have to unplug my VR or disable the mic all together in my windows settings before launching DRG.

I tried searching for a suggestion related to this but only found a brief mention of it back in march early this year, so will there ever be a "Save Match Replay" function added? For instance, Cyberpunk 2077 just announced a photo mode that will make it easy for content creators to make flashy looking thumbnails and video captures in their content. I think if Deep Rock Galactic had a similar function, it would be much easier to showcase and promote Deep Rock Galactic content in youtube videos, twitch streams, etc. because of how many new perspectives a free roam camera could give when replaying the footage of a previously played match.

Since veteran enemies are coming to DRG, maybe add a veteran bulk detonator (of course it would not spawn on escort) it would be larger, have more health and would have green explosive sacs rather than yellow, it could spit its explosive substances out of different glands, and just as normal any dwarves terrain or other bugs covered in both substances would explode when the chemical reaction occurs, this attack would have a short range though, I just feel like on haz 5, with an experienced team, on all missions except escort (and a bit of salvage), a bulk detonator is not much of a horror of hoxxes, and this would probably be a very rare spawn on most difficulties except 4 and 5

Active Perk idea;
Name: Warcry
Primarily useful for scattering bugs, upon activation your dwarf releases a blood-curdling scream that sends all bugs within the radius scrambling away. Higher levels cause longer fear effect / smaller cooldown, and at max level it also gives other dwarves within the radius (yourself included) a small speed boost for the duration of the effect

Can you add a new Mutation where the M.U.L.E.'s A.I. is disrupted by some strange environmental force and forces it to act a bit strange sometimes.

If I further explain my idea, make it so that once in a while, the M.U.L.E. is either 1) malfunctions and creates an electric field around itself and moves a lot faster than usual and may not directly obey to the dwarves' calls. This can be useful at times since the M.U.L.E. comes to you a lot faster even if it moves farther away from the dwarves and damages the dwarves OR 2) the M.U.L.E. generates random noises and attract creatures without a prior notice, just like swarms.

This could be a fun add-on since the M.U.L.E. is barely any fun right now and players will start to notice the M.U.L.E. more often in these kinds of missions.

Supercooling Chamber needs a buff. The only real upside is single target damage. You lose overall damage (for hip fire and focus shots) because the ammo cost is too steep, and the charge + movement penalties makes hitting weak spots difficult, so it can be nearly impossible to use on oppressors and dreadnaughts. Keeping current types of stats, a damage buff by 25% 3 different breakpoints for HVTs and 2 interesting ones for praetorians. Alternatively, setting the ammo modifier around 0.7 could make it so you don't lose overall focus damage, but still have a hefty loss in hip fire total damage.

You should add a television to The Abyss bar linked to a couple of different channels, like a news station to give us all a small glimpse outside the world of Hoxxes, and maybe also a cartoon channel fit for dwarves. The cartoon channel will have a few shorts that are either bigoted toward leaf-loving elves or praise the amazingness of dwarf heritage. You can also save tons of money on the animations by holding a contest every so often to update those channels with works created and submitted by the community. Step 1: Hold Contest. Step 2: ........... Step 3: Profit!!!

It would be nice for each dwarf to have unique perks which are "not upgrades" but unique traits for each of them just like their suit colours (blue for scout, red for engi, etc.).

All the different dwarves already have a armor upgrade unique for them such as the fire resistance upgrade, fall damage reduction upgrade, etc. But these are mostly just upgrades for self-resilience for each dwarf and not that important as a team player.

Consider this:

-Engi can build stuff faster inherently; useful team player for faster repairs, faster pipeline building etc.

-Scout can walk and sprint a lot faster and jump higher than all other dwarves inherently so he can explore caves ahead of other dwarves. This will further enable the role "scout" to be more literal.

-Driller can wield the pickaxe inherently with more force due to his expertise in breaking stuff; he deals more pickaxe damage, breaks terrain faster.

-Gunner has extreme physique that makes him carry heavy object a lot easily; carrying all sorts of heavy gems, gunk seeds or Mini M.U.L.E. legs is much easier for this dwarf and he is significantly faster than any dwarf in carrying heavy objects.

These "traits" would be available from level 1 and doesn't need any upgrades to obtain. I hope that by doing this, even without perks and upgrades, all dwarfs feel unique even without their equipment and color schemes

Stunned Mactera should probably fall down and take slight damage or hover down.
The stun's effect could change on what enemy is stunned, so like Grabbers would hover down but Goo Bombers fall down.
And if the change sounds too powerful it could be restricted to specific weapons/stuns such as Subata with tranq rounds.

Make Bulk Detonator death explosions incapable of directly killing a Drilldozer section. Make it so their explosions act like HL2's poison headcrabs and reduce the current section's health to 1%, without ever being able to kill it (also, prevent the detonator frags from removing that 1% immediately- though not other bugs, they can still kill it).

This prevents automatic losses of parts/missions in the event that the dozer runs over a detonator, since it's not like the players can do anything to stop the explosion from damaging the dozer in that circumstance.

In the KPI terminal under milestones, for the haunted caves you can see a ghost praetorian, shellback, and grabber in addition to a detonator. I think it would be cool to have a ghost mactera grabber instead of only a bulk detonator. It would be invincible just like the detonator, but behaves like a mactera grabber. There are a couple things I would change, such as making it carry people for less time, have it be "tired out" for longer after being shot or dropping a player, and also how many bullets you shoot at it before it starts moving away. Would also be nice for it to have a different sound than normal grabbers, and something in the mission selection that says whether the thing in the mission is a detonator or a grabber.

Problems with the Big Bertha OC:

High spread for a Direct Damage focused OC
Damage is only impressive once max ROF is reached (given you have both the Lighter Barrel Assembly and Feedback Loop mods) but the nerfed Mag size means you can only take advantage of this damage increase for a disappointing amount of time before you have to reload and reach the max ROF again. This means that the gun is terrible for holding a position in prolonged, large swarms common in Hazard 5.
Very short range because of the aforementioned high spread means that this gun is terrible for mobbing and holding the line. You will often be forced into retreat from swarms at higher hazard levels and sacrifice your ROF, otherwise, it's easy to be overrun.
I'm sure that the mag size and ammo reduction was added in large part to dissuade players from take T1 damage, but it makes it so that whether you choose to take ammo or mag size, the gun feels unoptimized and inefficient. If you take mag size, you will run out of ammo almost twice as fast as the rest of your team. If you take ammo, you only get to take advantage of Feedback Loop for a short time before being subjected to the weapon's brutal reload time.
Even this gun's strengths (killing high health or armored targets very quickly) looks pretty bad compared to negatives here, especially as hazard level goes up.
My suggestions to fix the overclock:

Significantly reduce the base spread as x0.7 is just not enough for the OC to be an effective single target weapon at most ranges, or increase the damage even further to make it feel more like a close-range specialist.
For the love of god please remove either the mag size reduction or the max ammo reduction, or at the very least make them less extreme. It'll still be worth it to choose one or the other in T1 over damage.
Increase the damage added from +12 to +16 to make tank busting is Haz 5 feel a bit more effective.

Give doretta two of those turrets from point extraction. To balance this, they only pop up when doretta isn't moving, ie during refueling and at the heartstone. you will also lose one of the turrets when doretta gets one of their sections destroyed. This way, dotty can defend herself from singular bugs, but you still have to protect her from swarms.

Different voice lines upon spawning in different biomes. When the drop pod opens and a mission starts in a certain biome, the dwarves will have a voice line related to this biome, E.G, when landing in glacial strata, they can say something like "this place is so cool. Got it?? COOL!", For the radiation biome they can say something like "this cave looks rad!" or "Where's my docimeter..?", Etc etc, you got the idea.

near glacier Dec 9, 2020, 9:40 AM

#

I second BlacKy's idea of more voicelines, especially specific voicelines, for example, when you ping a chunk of something, instead of the dwarv saying:"There is Gold here" or "Mine the Nitra for ammo", they just say voicelines if they ping the ground, and since most dwarves have an audio response to those voicelines, it would be nice if they were used on Chunks too, especially for when a driller explodes a node of Oil Shale and the guys with Oil Canisters just ignore it, since do not hear that there is Oil Shale, unless they see it, or unless they hear the voicelines. I know its a really minor thing to improve, but it helps so much, especially since Red sugar has that feature.

Been accumulating the following suggestions, in order of personal importance:
Functionality/QoL

Text chat fades too fast, during action team feedback can disappear before time to read (possibly a GUI setting)
Show mineral inventory on mission select screen as with class and assignment select, I find myself having to refer to the other consoles too much when selecting missions
provide quick overview of Overclock inventory, perhaps at the Forge (Forge history insufficient and inconvenient)
Unsuccessful mission select (mission full/just starting) should not cause self-disconnects, ie: forcibly return you to your own Rig where you already are
Tab/D-pad support for quick menu navigation
Permit self-mission start (as host) from server select menu instead of having to back out
Permit special brew f/x to carry over from personal rig into active mission, as long as mission refresh doesnt time out (ie: I can buff myself going into an active mission but it has to be within same timeframe)
Same biome should never be "out of Range" twice in a row upon mission refresh
Kick/Join should not be possible once mission objectives are complete
Complexity/Length value of 1 vs a 2 are indistinguishable/pointless distinction
Escort is a slow-loading mission on late-join, likely due to constant terrain changes (my guess). Pre-calculate & cache if possible?

while I love the music in this game, I feel the lobby music can drone on after hearing it so many times. what if the music built up a little when you have a mission selected? maybe even more so for deep dives and elite deep dives, it'd help build up the upcoming mission, make you pumped.

Since dash is a very powerfull perk that often gets picked over most other alternatives, especially at higher level play, that also just makes the game play nicer, i'd like to suggest an indirect nerf to it.

The idea is to give all dwarfs a passive dash ability with a 45 second cooldown without the ability to ignore slows, and then have the dash perk simply reduce that cooldown by 5/10/15/20 seconds (which whould make the new cooldown the same as the current iteration of the perk) and enable it to ignore "all" slowdown effects again.

This change whould give you less returns from picking dash while still letting you end up with the same ability that we have right now, putting it more in line with other perks.

I was thinking, as the BET-C is to my knowledge at least a machine designed and deployed by the Deep Rock Galactic corporation.

I was thinking perhaps at a certain rank you can do an assignment, to unlock a BET-C for permanent use,

5-10 missions,
It would cost 75k- 100k credits,
200-300 of each mineral,
In each mission that you have it active (as bringing it would be optional, as is the case for Bosco) there would be a set of Xynarch Charge-suckers that would lodge onto your BET-C taking control of it, should the BET-C come within a certain distance of them,
Should this occur you would need to combat as though it were a random encounter, then subsequently restart it, to regain it's help as usual,
And furthermore, should you not dislodge the parasites or fail to restart it before completing the mission, you would lose the BET-C and have to repurchase it.

And as a further note there could also be available for purchase, perhaps using a rank based unlock system, (as there is with the class specific level based upgrades), various upgrades to improve the BET-C's damage or provide a chance to prevent the Xynarch Charge-suckers from lodging onto it, or even provide additional protection to the dwarves, with a substantial cost, although it would only use the host's BET-C, as having four or even five BET-Cs would be ridiculously overpowered.

I don't doubt that it will need substantial tweaking, this is the base of what I came up with.

Glyphid Webliner: A support glyphid that spits out a destructable Glyphid only "ziplines" aka Glyphid dragline that medium to small glyphids can use to traverse at their speed climbing up and on top of the dragline or slide upside down faster than their speed. Their ai prefers to be at range and stays near the dragline closest to the dwarves aka the "offensive dragline" and prefers to place them sloping downwards to improve mobility but will place other draglines sloping upwards to traverse if its more efficient than climbing straight on(thank you mr. hypotenuse) to shoot down their offensive downward sloping dragline. They can work on their offensive dragline effectively making
it immortal as long as a Glyphid Webliner is working on it. Letting a Webliner work on the dragline without damaging either will increase the strength and diameter of the dragline enabling the BIG BUGS to use them.

I heard somewhere that the caves in the game were originally much darker and light sources were less bright, but this was altered because it didn't work as well for open-ish spaces and those open-ish spaces are usually better than "nothing but narrow tunnels". for the whole game.

I'm thinking that this altered the game for the better overall, but if that initial prototype was fun, could it be good to have a biome composed of a large network of tunnels with less open chambers and with something that reduces light source effectiveness?
Maybe there's black fog that is always kinda there but a more concentrated version is made by some local enemies and plants which blocks more light. Since there's a lot of rock, it could probably be at least as fragile as the walls in the sandblasted corridors.

Y'know, I was thinking what the coolest new mission type for DRG might be if I had the ability to create it and I think a tower defence style mission type would be cool. Generate a map with a central point that needs defending a bit like Point defence (Research base for a new matrix core reward perhaps?) , but with the ability to lay down obstacles and call in different defences based on the minerals you were able to recover. Imagine the resupply pod mechanic, but with a mounted machine gun turret on the top, or a sentry like the Engineers have, or any one of several different traps for incoming enemies that slow them down, freeze them, explode etc. I'd love to see the building and requesting backup mechanics built out into a solid tower defense mission type at some stage :3

Reasoning: I play solo a lot, but I only ever start missions in solo-only mode when none of my friends are available, merely so I have the ability to pause the game, which comes well in handy - but never with the intent to keep friends from joining me if they want to. So it comes back to bite me when one of my friends comes online/decides they want to play while I'm mid-mission.

Hello dear and brave dwarves! I recently noticed that after missions, some dwarves are in such a bad mood that they don't even want to drink a beer. I asked Karl for special information about the missions and what happened on them. It turned out that our brave dwarves are in a bad mood because of lootbugs, because they have to kill them, the dwarves are gradually cracking their little brave heart. I have a suggestion on how to solve this problem!
Add special mechanics, namely: if you hold down E on the lootbug, then it will gradually begin to inflate, more and more (this will happen for 8 seconds, with a special progress bar), after which the lootbug will make a loud and cute sound, and then explode with happiness (with an effect similar to the effect when taming Steve). Thanks to this, your little, brave and kind heart will not have to suffer!

Suggestion:
Give someway for players to be able to speed up escort duty.

Reasoning: The mission type feels far too rigid; especially when compared to other mission types. Due to the strict nature of doretta's path and her relatively low movement speed, there's a very strict skill ceiling where no matter how good you get at the mission, it will always take upwards of 20 minnutes where you dont do much but wait for the majority. Highly skilled coordinated players will take about as long as players who kinda get how the mission works, which results in a missiontype that really isnt that hard but is always exhausting.

this has led to me and my friends loathing whenever an escort duty mission shows up on assignments or deepdives because we know that no matter how skillfully we do the mission and no matter how often we're glued to doretta we're almost always gonna stick 20-25 minutes there because the mission gives us no ways to speed it up. And ontop of that it has the hearthstone phase which would be an interesting timed climax we need to wait out, but it ends up feeling like another annoying layer of tedium thanks to the phases before.

other missiontypes also have phases where you have to deffend for a set amount of time, but those hardly ever take more than 2 minutes compared to the often 20+ minutes the drilldozer gives you.

A common reccomendation i see is being able to refuel as you go, which is a very good solution; but i also believe it should be possible for a skilled dwarf team to speed up doretta even further. perhaps keeping her above 75-80% fuel gives a speedboost? i'm unsure on this one but it's worth consideration to give a way to make the mission much faster if you're coordinated and experienced.

What about some new voice lines for when a teammate dwarf is downed? You are in a swarm and your friend dies and your dwarf would say something like: "Gunner's downed!" - "Those bloody bugs got him!". Maybe some of those lines could be taunting the teammate who was downed: "That leaf lover just blew himself up!"

It would work kinda like the grenade launcher but it has rlly high damage and less aoe but if stuns those close to the impact site temporarily and may send some of them flying depending on how close they were.

What about a sluggish "passive" creature that acts as a pollinator for exploding plants ? It would be a fluffy headless slug that carries exploding plant seeds (after wandering in a biome where you can find them). From time to time the slug shakes its fluffy body (like a wet dog), scattering the tiny seeds (a random number everytime between 3 and 10 sounds good) stuck on its back all around it. Those seeds will then sprout rapidly, becoming tiny version of the mature sploder . They can still deal some good damage but won't affect terrain (or maybe it will I don't know). When you scare this weird creature by shooting at, it enters in a panic state like Huulis, spreading more of those seeds during its escape. I had this idea while seeing this cute little sea slug that almost looks fluffy https://cdn.zmescience.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/gomafubiroudoumiushi3_10241-1024x768.jpg I like the idea of an "explanation" for the presence of sploder and the fact that there can be interactions in the world of DRG. I know lore is not important though

I am BEGGING for this idea to be added:

(I searched btw...I don't think this has been suggested?)

Can we PLEASE get a button added to the inside of the dropship that surviving dwarves can hit to DELAY THE LIFTOFF at the end of the level for dwarves who are very close by to the dropship but are about to go down?

I cannot tell you the frustration of being downed ten feet from the drop pod while three healthy dwarves are ready to get you up, but the game closes the drop pod immediately and lifts off instead.

Before you say anything, yes I know that the other dwarves could stand outside the drop pod to prevent it from leaving, or accompany you in getting back to the drop pod. But they shouldn't HAVE to do this. These are workarounds for an unnecessary problem. Besides, sometimes there is so much going on, especially on Haz 4/5, that they would be insane to try and get off the drop pod when they've already made it back. A dreadnought or a bulk could be sitting outside ready to kill anyone who gets off...and then what happens? The drop pod leaves without THEM too.

Sooo how about we just add a button that holds the drop pod in place so that a downed dwarf can be rescued? Or, how about a button that the surviving dwarves have to hit IN ORDER TO LEAVE. A "leave now?" button perhaps. For use when the survivors are not willing to risk saving the dwarf out there. (To prevent abuse by trolls, maybe the button would only be active when the outstanding dwarves are down)

By the way, this problem is REALLY frustrating for those of us with Iron Will. The drop pod just LEAVES, even if I can get myself up after being downed.

This is a must add. Everyone I play with has thrown their controller at some point or other after being left behind when they were within a stone's throw of that damn ramp. It is extremely frustrating. I know we don't lose THAT much if the rest of the team makes it out alive, but it is still such an annoying problem, we need to come up with a fix. PLEASE.

Hi guys, just wanted to give my feedback on current state of the game. What I am hearing from my peers is that although we are huge fans of the game what's preventing us from coming back for more at the moment is the lack of different guns. I hope the next major update for the game will include new weapons as this is the biggest barrier at the moment to game variety. Love the game - thanks

When everyone is in the drop pod except for a downed dwarf, a timer starts for 5 seconds saying “LEAVE NO DWARF BEHIND.” This prevents the droppod from immediately leaving when there is an easily savable dwarf right outside the pod.

New mission type, Ebonite Excavation.

The players are tasked with mining a newly discovered Ebonite mineral, but to mine it they've been given a new heavy duty M.U.L.E nicknamed E-GOR (Ebonite Grinder Something Something), which will allow the mining and depositing of the new mineral.

One downside E-GOR has is that it's very bad at navigation, so the dwarfs need to drag it along with them trough the caves, 1-2 dwarfs can drag E-GOR, if only 1 dwarf drags it, it will slow them down but with 2 it wont (Slowdown is like on heavy objects but guns are still able to be used).

When E-GOR is near the Ebonite mineral it will dispense pickaxe boosters so the mineral can be mined by the dwarfs.

Cave generation would be 2-3 large caves that have the Ebonite mineral and normal minerals, and a few smaller caves in-between them with normal minerals.

TLDR, Mine Ebonite minerals while literally dragging a M.U.L.E with you.

I mainly just drew it as a random idea I had. But a jet powered, pan fed, railgun for Gunner doesn't sound too bad. The weapon would be a slow firing, high damage weapon, with fair accuracy. Not sure on the actual numbers, but maxed out with normal upgrades, it should be able to oneshot a grunt and then blow through and kill the next few, Possibly electrocuting or stunning larger targets.
Possible Overclocks: "Scattershot" turning the gun into a very powerful Shotgun, with reduced range and ammunition. "Tesla ReARC" turns the gun directly into a lightning cannon, turning it into a wide cone of AOE damage similar to Driller's stuff. "Overloaded Shot" can expend more ammunition to pool a higher velocity and blow through bullet with minor terrain destruction (think EPC mixed with grenade launcher but FAST)

PESTILENT LOCHS
"While this region may look like a home away from home, don't be deceived, it's just as bad as the rest of this wretched planet. Home to Glyphids, Korloks and even a few unique beasties, it's probably for the best that you don't get too comfortable... And for Karl's sake, don't touch the water, if we can even call it that."

Minerals
Abundant Umanite
Scarce Jadiz

Features
The Pestilent Lochs have floors covered in green grass and flowers among other things, which unfortunately include Deeptora Honeycombs and if you're really unlucky, Korlok Tyrant Weeds. In addition, shallow pools of what appears to be water big and small can be found across the cave system, though swimming in them is ill-advised as the "water" is actually a stagnant and toxic goo, deadly even to most bugs. To cross the larger pools, ziplines and platforms are recommended. Doretta is also a good alternative in Escort Duty missions, as she can cross the pools without taking damage.

In addition to the usual Glyphids and the occasional Mactera swarm, there are threats unique to the Pestilent Lochs that Dwarves must fight against.

Glyphid Strider
Exclusive to the Pestilent Lochs, Glyphid Striders have a similar appearance to Glyphid Spawn and behave similarly. They possess the unique ability to walk on water, though they are unable to jump while doing so. They are somewhat resistant to heat but are quite vulnerable to the cold. They take the place of Glyphid Swarmers in the Pestilent Lochs and as such, Swarmers will never appear in this biome.

Very simple idea I haven't found suggested yet but apply a letterbox effect to the drop pod as we're dropping off the station, and remove the letterbox effect as the doors open after we land, it's purely visual but letterboxes make things look super cinematic, including breaching a cavern with a 100 tons of metal while you're strapped inside. 👀

Add a thermostat in a hidden location that, when interacted with, lowers the ambient temperature on the space rig and causes piles of snow to form, enabling players to throw snowballs at any time of the year. Lowering the temperature even further would cause all dwarves on the space rig to freeze solid and get scolded by Mission Control for messing with the thermostat.

the ability to run into some enemies and knock them over, it depends on the size and how many dwarfs are doing it, 1 dwarf can knock swarmers, grunts flying while if u ran into a menace or a warden u would just knock them over, if u ran into a praetorian it either would do nothing or stun it for a really short amount of time. multiple dwarfs can work together to knock things over or flying as in 4 dwarfs could knock a praetorian of a cliff. to do all this the dwarfs would need a kind of power armor which is very heavy so it minuses your speed and u cant sprint constantly but when u do, u build up momentum until u can bull charge a enemy/enemies out the way. note if u push an enemy into a wall while charging u could crush them through the sheer velocity at which you are charging. u could upgrade this suit to have certain favorable stats, like maybe a heavier suit to knock more things out the way, or one that is more maneuverable.

I would like to see the possibility of weapons with more traversal possibilities. Idea: Gunner gets a Plasma Engine. Plasma engines work in real life by generating enough heat on a single point using microwaves to generate a plasma, which is then electrically ignited, which heats the air, causing it to expand, generating thrust. What if we had a gunner plasma jet gun with two modes? Laminar mode collimates the plasma into a shorter range, extremely fine beam of pure death, and the other mode does little damage, but widens the jet, and enables greater mobility as say, an extra jump, or a boost in a direction? Similar to how Drillers Experimental blaster works.

rocknstone my fellow miners!

I've been playing DRG for 2 years now and I love the game, such a fun and satisfying gameplay with lots of small details and a nice community :)

What I've been struggling with though is the buff of "Pots O' Gold".. It doesn't feel very rewarding (esp. in the endgame when you have pretty much endless ressources), yet furthermore it makes mining gold into a painful experience of labor :o
With that beer you either have to have M.U.L.E with you (which isn't always in a mission ofc) or deposit full gold atleast 2-3 times per goldvein.

The idea:
Instead of "dropping" more gold out of a vein we could simply make it that 1 unit of deposited gold gets converted into 2 or that the calculation in the post-game-screen is doubled. (Yet I can see that the last option would be less satisfying for the player, since we don't get to see the high goldamount while in the mission.)

RJ250: A lot more grenades, maybe x3 so that the ammo counts become similar to the jury-rigged shotgun, but the damage they deal is reduced to around 30 with no change to radius. This would basically turn it into a small enemy clearing tool, namely swarmers and naedocytes, while also giving it the ammo it needs to be a mobility tool. When paired with the stun upgrade, it would offer a strong option for crowd control and escapes.

The tapes can include anything. Easter eggs, in game clues, stories, music, u guys choose. Although there will be a choice to download one of the tapes onto a more portable version which can be put into a Sony Walkman like device where u can listen to it during a mission at ur leisure.

Not sure if this has been suggested before / confirmed to never be implemented BUT...

I always found it odd that supply pods don't show on the scanner map. Would be quite helpful to know where exactly the supply drop is relative to the rest of the cave system instead of "its 43 meters away through some rock or something" when you look at its outline marker. I don't think an icon would pollute the map too much if it was small enough. Just something to reference would be nice.

Maybe have the icon be removed from the scanner map whenever the supply drop is used up. Prevent the map from being overcrowded.

I have a suggestion that the Heavy Autocannon made me think of, it's not the reload time, but the reload animation itself, I know it's a heavy and big weapon, but I think that the reload animation occupates too much space on the screen. Imagine reloading after some infestation and then getting downed in some random hole because you can barely see through the weapon itself!
Something devs could add is a option of transparency, to affect the weapons on first-person, so you don't need to be bothered by reloads taking too much of the screen! Make it transparent during reloads or just all the time, or both options if possible!
(I searched most of the discord here and didn't find suggestions about it, if somehow there is a suggestion about it, then sorry, that's all I can say unfortunately)

How about the concept of "Vaults" which houses artifacts?
So the concept is similar to the artifacts in Risk of Rain franchise and these alter your game so it plays out differently like for example a Mactera only spawn, Praetorian only, Bulk Detonator only etc.
Unlimited ammo, health, increased gravity the possibilities are endless.
Maybe even artifacts that just add modifiers but not anything that gives money like gold rush/ bugs since that would be unfair.

The pickaxe batteries during the ebonite machine event give you a temporary berzerker buff. However if you also have the berzerker skill equipped, using a pickaxe attack will activate the skill which will overlap with the buff from the battery, wasting it. Instead of overlapping, they should add onto each other.

Dottie has already become a steadfast friend, and it's a shame we have to leave her behind. What if we had an additional game mode called "Drill salvage" that plays a little something like this:

PHASE THREE - Dwarves escort the drill to an extraction site. Maybe it's rolling right down the tunnel it has already carved, or maybe it's going to someplace totally new. Dwarves extract as the drill does.
