today i joined a team of 4 to do an escort mission on Haz4, lasting about 30 minutes and earning about 1200 performance points. i then did two solo egg collection missions on haz1, taking 15 minutes total and earning about 1200 performance points. as someone who considers themselves a skilled-but-not-expert player that almost always plays Haz4 online, it feels inconclusive to play the game at a difficulty that isn't at my level and without teammates, and up until i experimented with performance point gain, going for harder missions all the time was more than likely what contributed to the performance pass feeling incredibly grindy to level. also, since challenges are based on completing a certain number of missions, rather than going for specific difficulties, it further disincentivises going for difficult hazard levels and longer missions.

#

**What can be done about this? **
PP gain from missions may be that way as an accessibility feature for some players, but there still could be room for improvement on the challenge side at least. maybe challenges should ask the player to play specific mission types rather than specific biomes; all biomes are relatively the same in terms of difficulty and length, so basing them on mission types would mean playing a long mission would earn an appropriate amount of PP versus a short mission.

looking into other games, challenges in apex legends for instance, are designed to be easy to fulfil and quick to complete, so everyone is able to make reasonable progress in their pass regardless of what difficulty they play on. in DRG, it might mean challenges like "play 2 missions (2500 PP)", "play 2 missions as scout (2500 PP)", "kill 100 grunts (3750 PP)" etc. this effectively standardizes progression across all players; while it wouldn't reward going for high difficulty, it would change the system so that people who prefer hard missions don't have incredibly slow progression.

team fortress 2 has a different progression system: each challenge has two sub-challenges, where the main one is relatively easy, and the other two are harder, allowing every player to figure out what challenges and progression are appropriate for them. DRG can use a similar system where season challenges have optional sub-objectives that are harder, but offer bonuses. if translated to DRG, it might result in challenges like "play 3 missions as driller", with sub-objectives like "deal X amount of damage using sticky flames" and "kill 10 glyphids with one C4". this will give rewards to higher-skilled players, but depending on its implementation it could easily result in either players progressing too fast, or not being rewarded as much for the effort to complete sub-challenges.

the issue i'm having is an open one with multiple solutions, so i guess we can talk it over in the discussion channel.

Ok so I know a "Firing range in the Space Rig" gets suggested A LOT and is generally shunned, so instead I propose this. A zone that we could load into like a mission on the surface of Hoxxes that would be a demolition range. This zone would allow you to change your builds at a terminal without having to exit back to the space rig and would have target practice and a large open field for mining/explosive testing, as well as different terrain and obstacles to test traversal tools. The target range could have a DPS meter that would inform you of how much DPS you did (duh) and also the total amount of damage dealt, having a reset button nearby. This would also make it so the limitations of the Space Rig wouldn't come into to play as the devs have mentioned, since it would be functionally the same to an actual mission. I'm already aware this isn't high on the devs priority list but I wanted to propose a new solution the the problem many people have, and I hope this could be taken into consideration.

mellow dock Jan 20, 2022, 2:33 PM

#

lobby filter should include games with friends and certain modifiers

#

there should be a huge space rig station where players can chill and chat, cause DRG feels like mission oriented now and not many players chat during missions outside of objective lingo. A "house" or place you can customize and show to friends is nice too.

New mission idea: on-site brewery: maybe have this mission restricted to forest/plant life regions. Basically DRG sees a potential in marketing beer from hoxxes, and wants you to gather special ingredients that R&D think will make the beer incredibly good; a few different mission exclusive plants, a few normal plants, and the kicker- they also need you to eliminate a new type of dreadnaught so you can cram it in there too. Once all that’s done, you defend the brewery while it makes a batch, and then put a barrel on molly like the heartstone in escort.
(And Yes, during the mission you have the ability to “taste test” the beer, making your dwarf drunk, and annoying the mission control dwarf)

Please increase the fire rate of the "Six Shooter" OC for the Bulldog back to pre nerf values, and give it high recoil instead/in addition to spread. It's hella fun to "fan the hammer" point blank range, as is required with the increased recoil/spread to make all the bullets hit, and already somewhat balanced out by high ammo consumption. Removing the ability to fan took away a lot of the uniqueness and coolness factor of the OC.

guys...Am I the only one thinking that the current season cosmetic tree structure is unneccessary confusing and complicated? I mean DRG is primarly a game where you have one or two favourite classes. Therefore it would make sense to have just different branches for each class. I am absolutely not interested in cosmetics for the driller for example and I need to purchase certain items that I don't need for a class I don't like to play just to get stuff for the scout for example. This just makes a lot of time and work for the grind that I don't have....

Everyone wants something to do with bonus perks so instead of adding more perks, which people don't want, why couldnt there just be a way to exchange perk points for minerals, or bonus perk points are just automatically converted to credits or something like that. I get that the devs wanted there to be more than one way to get all the perks but I don't see why that means there cant be something they do after you unlock all of them.

April Fool's Day mission.

Mission Control just tells you "we found some signal deep in this cave, but don't know what exactly it is. We think it's some rare treasure, go find out for us," then drops you at the top of an extremely long, complex cave that you have to reach the bottom of.

Once you get to the location of this mysterious source, Mission Control tells you "just kidding, the real treasure is the friends you made along the way" then sends you a drop pod. You return empty handed, yet you feel inexplicably richer.

Surprise Event!

A new creature that looks like a booloo cap with arms and legs. It is bipedal and extremely fast.

You go across a regular cave and notice a booloo cap. You pick it up only for it to start shaking violently and it gets out of your hand, and runs extremely quickly away. Its movement consists of running, jumping, climbing walls, and digging its way through dirt quickly. However it cannot go on the ceiling and only climbs if it needs to. After chasing it for a while it gets cornered and stops running, proceeding to cower in a dead end. At this point you have two options. 1. You kill the mushroom creature and grind it into molly for a good pay of gold. As the creature would have a very small chance of spawning. 2. You give it a certain mineral/plant, and it eats it. Running away, however if you stay in the same spot it'll come back with some lost gear, possibly some unique gear you can only gain from the mushroom. Maybe even fungus themed equipment and such.

The creature would look like a booloo cap in order to hide from glyphids. It is not actually a mushroom itself, however it looks like one to not be hunted by glyphids as it hides in the ground.

First sorry for my bad English

I got an idea for an update or a new season
With the data we get from the rival mining team we can find new caves some parts a filled with water and special enemies
Thay can grab you to drown in the water and the mission is that you find some kind of generator or water wheel you need to repair
at the end of the mission you get a new resource called energy wit them you can buy maybe cosmetics for the space station theyre extrem expensive because it's just for fun but with the energy you may upgrade the space station for a better smit where you can build oc or alternate versions for your gadgets maybe a shield for the gunner that isn't a couple so it protects you from the front and when you shoot trough the bullets do elemental damage or more damage nothing to strong maye 10 or 20 percent
also you can charge your pickaxe on a special mashine so they can dig faster and in a bigger AoE or you can charge maybe a enegie sword or something that AR better for attacking but bad for mining when you charge it it is availeble when you equip it for the mission until the energy runs out than you switch back to your normal pickaxe

As much as I love the worldbuilding the Space Rig does, well… it tanks the performance. The uncountablr amount of decals, models and lights in such a tiny space makes it very hard to navigate without having to look at a slideshow.

Now, for the sake of this, I’d like to ask the devs to add an option in the settings called „Simplify Space Rig” that simply removes most of the clutter models, decals and whatnot for the sake of performance.

And to be clear, my machine isn’t the strongest, but since the last space rig update such issues have been a daily occurance.

I wish you'd make a new drill, that works as a weapon. Imagine being able to use a drill powerattack, that shot off the 2 drills as rockets. It'd make a tunnel, by drilling whatever was infront of it for some distance, and you could use it against enemies. Even better, if you made it so they had chains attached to them, you'd reload the attack by the chains being pulled back until the drills were back in place. Obviously the attack would have to cost quite some fuel to make it ballanced, but you should also make it so that you are kind of rooted in place as the animation of reloading plays. I think that would be an amazing and quite fun weapon

Idea for a new season: First Expedition

A new mission will have the dwarves sent to a derelict vessel from the first expedition to Hoxxes that holds within it in a Reliquary, but in order to get into the vessel you must reconstruct parts of it in order to get the power flowing again. There will be two/three segments of the vessel that have splintered off that need to be rebuilt, requiring dwarves to find machine parts embedded in the terrain and repair the main machinery. But, it's not as simple as holding down E, you have to ensure the parts are in the right place, like a jigsaw puzzle, so the machinery functions again. Meanwhile, the party will have to put up a fight against a new threat; Xynarch infested drones and turrets.

Once all the machinery has been repaired, you will be able to activate the main vessel and get the doors to open once again. However, once the vessel is powered up, they will unknowingly wake a 'Xynarch Kraken', which will attack the dwarves to protect it's new home. Once defeated, the team will be able to access the Reliquary stored inside and the mission parameters are complete.

In other missions, similar derelicts may show up, where the party must once again find, assemble and repair the machine parts in the right order while fighting off Xynarch threats, and once complete the derelict will activate and allow access to the Relic stored within. Another threat may also appear in missions that requires dwarves to destroy a 'Xynarch Hermit', which acts as a smaller and more mobile version of the Kraken, but with a shell made of machinery. Once destroyed, a Relic will be dropped.

Like the current season, Reliquaries and Relics award bonus performance points. Cosmetics might be themed around the idea of 'expeditions', such as vikings, pirates and explorers.

I've had an idea for a long time. If we could find someone that could make a TF2 styled comic about the early life in the company for the dwarfs, I have tons of good ideas for backstory and so. It'd be a fun and easy to digest way of making lore for the game.
Things like, the gunner originally being an environmetalist protester that snuck onto the pod. When he arrives on site, he learns that the cute bugs he thought he was there to save are in fact horrible monsters, and as he is all pathetic throughout the plot, he eventually learns to kill bugs and becomes the gunner as he learns how much he hates bugs

Hæ! This is a very small thing, but it has been irritating me for so long that I decided to come here and make a suggestion. When using the grappling hook (as a scout obviously), can you PLEASE REMOVE the TOO FAR message that comes up on the little screen on the grappling hook? Or at the very least shorten the time it appears on screen? I personally would like to always see the distance and the TOO FAR message hinders that. I know this is a tiny detail, but to be honest I would appreciate if you would just remove it. I don't think it used to be there before, it was probably a part of some update last year?

I posted this on Reddit and a comment suggested I relay my idea to this server so might as well do it

#

Had an idea for a Nayaka enemy: A huge, deaf sand shark that is attracted only by light.

It goes around the cave passively eating flares left by the dwarves until it spots headlights or muzzle flashes, becoming aggressive instantly. With its weak spot being in the tail, you can chuck a flare in a direction to distract the Devourer to reveal it, like a dog chasing a stick. It can be as rare as the Menace or the Oppressor and as big as the latter.

What do you think? I think it's a pretty neat idea, considering there is only one Nayaka enemy and it makes turning off the headlight actually useful.

Do something with the Hall of the Fallen where you go to promote your dwarfs. I've been using that Verified Closer Promotion Mod other than promoting your dwarfs and seeing your minor progress there is nothing to really motivate you to do anything there.

Even if you promote your dwarf the golden statues are just a novelty and the hassle of running over there each time just to promote your dwarfs for the 50th time or so is a chore. I don't know what they can add to that area but you could still keep the progression statues and move the Promotional terminal closer and turn the area into some kind of recreational area or something cooler.

Suggestion!
It would be great if the party leader or Host was also 'Mission Leader.' As Mission Leader (or Dive Leader, whatever you'd like to call it), you would need to approve pressing the button to end the mission.

Anyone could press the button, but the signal would need to either be approved or denied by the Mission Leader via button prompt. If Approved, Drop Pod is called in. If Denied, Drop Pod is not called in and button cannot be activated by the same player again for at least 1 minute.

This way, the mission cannot be ended before the Host is ready by someone else who loaded in and doesn't understand you're not finished exploring.

Maybe toned down because it seems a bit overwhelming for some people (link to og mod https://drg.mod.io/galaxy-skins)

Hello. I have 800 hours on steam already and dont want to stop it , but i have some suggestion.
1As an end game player i can say that we need rondom missions to take that we have some missions to do ( for example 5 rondom missions everyday) and rewards for example would be gold or minerals. The missions every week is too small to do. We need kinda like unlimited missions that we can start and feel that we doing something. No cosmetic rewards, just gold or minerals. One of daily 5 missions, or unlimited missions choice would be great .

This is the only thing that has bothered me about this game since I've downloaded it, there is no option to disable audio when the app is not in view.

When I'm alt-tabbed, I have to open windows volume mixer to manually mute the game if I want to do something else.

It would be a great and simple option and settings to "mute game audio when minimized" that would make it a lot easier for people who like to alt tab a lot.

Surprise Event!

A new creature that looks like a booloo cap with arms and legs. It is bipedal and extremely fast.

You go across a regular cave and notice a booloo cap. You pick it up only for it to start shaking violently and it gets out of your hand, and runs extremely quickly away. Its movement consists of running, jumping, climbing walls, and digging its way through dirt quickly. However it cannot go on the ceiling and only climbs if it needs to. After chasing it for a while it gets cornered and stops running, proceeding to cower in a dead end. At this point you have two options. 1. You kill the mushroom creature and grind it into molly for a good pay of gold. As the creature would have a very small chance of spawning. 2. You give it a certain mineral/plant, and it eats it. Running away, however if you stay in the same spot it'll come back with some lost gear, possibly some unique gear you can only gain from the mushroom. Maybe even fungus themed equipment and such.

The creature would look like a booloo cap in order to hide from glyphids. It is not actually a mushroom itself, however it looks like one to not be hunted by glyphids as it hides in the ground.

Possible inspiration art (Not mine just for example of body shape -the cap)

I play another game called Don't Starve Together and in it there is a feature where it keeps tracks of players you have played with before and would show you where you met them last/if you have seen them more than once, and I think that would be a great feature for this game. I'd also think it would be really funny if the console for it was just a ~~diary ~~ journal kept in each crew cabin. Have it keep track of the last mission you played with alongside a photo of their dwarf they played as, with the picture background being the biome the mission took place in.

Point Extraction has a ramp up in enemy density that eventually becomes continuous waves of enemies. This is not how other missions handle it and a lot of teams stay around for too long because of this. The ammo runs out before anyone realizes things have gotten out of hand.

If this is how it's going to be with extraction, then some indicator of this soft timer should be in play. Maybe a small bar tracking how far from maximum intensity the spawns are at.

I would like to see new 2 Classes (Medic/support and Military Veteran) - First Medic - Primary weapons less effective in compare with other classses, can be light smg or something like that. Also for secondary - one option pistol, second option meele (close-combat) injection of poison which instakill low enemies and do solid damage to big one....with some cooldown for balance. For special weapon gun with healing beam or alternative close-range variation also some kind of healing injection. For second special item - buffing field / similar to shield generator, throwable item where attack with primary mouse button create barrier inside which players have biggeR base attack dmg, second mouse button will create barrier boosting total HP, when this barrier dissapear it will lower total HP and heal all damaged persons.

Second one can be oriented more on Meele. I dont know if I am only one but gunplay is awesome but I still looking in the way how can I be in action with some meelee attacks. I would like to see some Military veteran with primary meele (axes, or another typical dwarven oriented weapons. This character should have special weapon/perk War cry oriented for buffing himself that he can stand up bugs in meele battles. Like boosting armor, attack power. Weapon should have some cool secondary attack with brutal force. Secondary weapon should stick for some fire power. For second special abilitty he should be able making vertical lianas (from a ceiling) using for climbing. Also this item should have some physics implemented you can swing with it.
EDIT: This military veteran can also work like this -> primary weapon some gun, if gun is emptyed (out of magazine) it will trigger Rage 30sec buff where you change for secondary meelee weapon and killing meele 🙂

perk system really has to be expanded, so what if:

there were unique class features? Gunner - more health & shields, Engi - faster ammo droppod call and machinery operations, Driller - faster axe swing and more effective digging, scout - better vision in the dark, more damage etc
there were some unique perks for classes? let my boy driller carry rocks and stones instead of molly, because now he's the only one who can carry 70 pieces of materials, while other can no more than 50.
there were some more ACTIVE active perks? Steve running around and killing own fellow bugs is good, but what about kind of wearable gunners shield, that lasts 5 sec and helps you push back the inevitable? active armour, to protect you from macteras' spits?

might be a bit rough in terms of balancing this mess up, but hope you got the idea 8bitDriller

Hypoxylon Hiveminds:

Occasionally, a section of cavern will be infested with a sickly yellow/beige fungus, with pustules and fungal sacs protruding unnaturally from the cavern walls, and with occasional pools of decomposing goo which will poison and slow Dwarves. The infestation would be spread over a moderately sized area, about the size of a Korlok's area of influence. A small number of hardened fungal pods could be found in the area, distinguishable by an odd pulsing, soft glow, and droning hum.

(Non-robotic) enemies found in this area will be infected versions of regular enemies, with fungus protruding from their bodies, primarily from the head, now part of the Hypoxylon hivemind. These special enemies would be immune to fear and stuns, but would be physically weaker and always vulnerable to fire. Uninfected enemies will almost always avoid this area, and infected enemies will actively target uninfected ones. An enemy which falls prey to an infected one has a chance to, instead of dying, become infected itself and return to the Hypoxylon, engaging in patrols and hunting further uninfected - including Dwarves. While inhaling any clouds of spores will deal poison damage, it seems like Hypoxylon spores can only infect a select number of species - primarily most Glyphids.

The fungal pods described above will, inside their hardened external 'carapace', contain a mycelia neural network sac, which Management would very much so like you to retrieve. Ripping one out will immediately anger the fungal hivemind, inciting it to act in self-defense as it summons waves of infected bugs to attack the Dwarves. Organic static defenses will protrude from the cave walls and attack the Dwarves with clouds of spores, spitting slowing goo, etc. While the fungal pods won't heal, the hivemind will grow stronger and more desperate as more mycelia sacs are removed, finally dying and going inert (all infected enemies immediately dying as well) when the final one is removed.

#

The 2k character limit makes it a little challenging to concisely fit this idea into a single message, and as such I'm taking advantage of the ability to send ~multiple~ messages.

This is intended to provide further diversity to the horrors and difficulties found in Hoxxes, with a visually and mechanically distinct environment with accompanying enemies. It also hopefully serves to provide some further dynamics to the ecosystem of Hoxxes, allowing intelligent Dwarves to bait infected and uninfected enemies together before running away to conserve ammunition as they maim one another, and also to provide a vaguely safe area to regroup in - while the poison spores and infected rabid glyphids are by no means safe, it might be preferable to coming face to face with 3 oppressors, who will very much so avoid trying to become infected.

The fungal pods and the mycelia sacs within them also contain a lot of extra credits and XP for a dwarf willing to provoke the hivemind, being rewarded handsomely for enduring waves of hyper aggressive (albeit somewhat weaker) enemies.

The stun and fear immunity could be changed to just being resistant to it, as it might be a little punishing. This is a bit more nuanced though, and can be ironed out by people who know about game balance far better than I do.

Generally, the idea is that the Hypoxylon will use sheer numbers to its advantage, having physically weaker but just more numerous enemies to throw at a team of Dwarves. This is sort of the opposite of the Korlok in some way, which has only a few things to shoot at, all of which have high health and high damage and focus on ranged attacks. In fact, it might be reasonable to have the only infectable enemies be melee ones, whereas things like Web Spitters, Acid Spitters, and Mactera (save for Praetoerians, which would spew Hypoxylon spores everywhere) would not be able to be infected. Drillers especially would likely have a lot of fun here, given their excellent crowd control skills.

#

Some final notes:

These should probably be excluded from being found in the following biomes, with the reasoning stated next to them:

Magma Core: The fungus could end up being vulnerable to fire. Things vulnerable to fire cannot grow on fire.
Sandblasted Corridors: The proposed coloration of yellow/beige would make this blend in maybe too well, but maybe this isn't a huge deal
Glacial Strata: Being frozen is not conducive to fungal growth
These could also be significantly more common in the Fungal Bogs, maybe being found in 1 out of every 3/4 or so missions into there, making the biome even more dangerous. The beige/yellow would stand out particularly well from the green marshy bog as well.

It should be near impossible to be sneaky here, as all infected enemies will be alerted as soon as one engages in combat - they are a hivemind after all. To compensate, a reduced sensory range might be in order, as well as having a hard limit as to how far they can stray from the Hypoxylon minibiome (if pushed outside this range, they just flat out die, so they'll desperately avoid getting even close to this limit).

Not sure if these guys should have poison resistance or not, but considering that they're kinda undead/already fungus infested, it'd make sense. A generally slower walk speed as well would be fitting, since their melee bites would probably have a chance to inflict poison damage. Maybe! Again, mechanical specifics are not my strong suit.

(I also used a random name generator to get the word Hypoxylon which I personally liked a lot, but it's honestly a placeholder name because I'm sure someone will think of a much better name)

((also i think im done spamming now!))

Idk if this is ment for here but I have a future suggestion for a future season or biome again sorry if this is not what this channel is for

I want to preface this with I have been reading the mystery flesh pit and watching analysis videos on it so check out Trevor Roberts work as this is heavily influenced by that

Possible lore

Is attention miners after going through a combination of the data of our rival company, our own research, and recent seismic events that have been occurring the scientists at Deep Rock Galactic have found there is a super organism living within hoxxes, at this time we are unsure of what this super organism is, and what it's capable of but that is your job, you will not only mine the resources found within, but to also to test and figure out what it truly is.

Possible missions

One possible mission type is having you collecting biological samples and bringing them to minehead this could be a region exclusive version of lis the version of like point extraction so maybe not a new mission type but a spin on point extraction

I have seen talk about a combat focused mission type from other community members I could see something lisee something like you're fighting the immune system of this organism

More info

I think of this more of a way to spice up existing misson types and you chould also have a part of the super organism appear in other parts of hoxxes maby as a mission mutation idk

In the super organism you chould have flora that take the shape of digestive sacs, or bronchi and alveoli to be like trees

3rd, and by far teh most important to me, grindable overclocks, like, why am i limited to 9 per week? its a pain in the ass, and i know it wont take that long to get all of them, but maybe just like a daily assignment with a blank core at teh end or something

A type of Overclocking system for beer ingredients called 'Moonshining', which will be part of a workstation to the left of the Abyss Bar.

Once you have fully upgraded your beer license and unlocked all perks, the option to brew 'unlicensed' beers will become available, but in order to unlock recipes you must buy them using perk points. Once unlocked, you can craft them at the Moonshining station and consume them before missions for an extra boost. They can be consumed alongside other beers without losing the bonus, but you can't benefit from more than one moonshine at a time.

Brewing moonshine requires a mix of beer ingredients and a small handful of minerals. However, unlike normal beers, only one will be produced, which will be reserved for whoever crafted it.

The effects of moonshine (besides getting incredibly drunk) are typically small temporary buffs that don't already appear in perks or existing beers, but also come with drawbacks much like Overclocks do.

This should hopefully bring more use for both beer ingredients and perk points in one handy system.

Mission modifiers:

Inverted Gravity. Essentially the level gets generated upside down, so you spend the mission walking on what would be the ceiling. You'd probably have to generate all the events and mission-critical stuff on the "new" floor. This would probably be more noticeable and interesting in some biomes more so than others.

Mixed Biome/Borderlands: Another biome is blending into this part of this region. Basically, generate parts of the map in another chosen biome's style. Biome-specific enemies from both biomes can show up. It'd make the most sense to limit it to adjacent biomes but that'd also reduce the variety a little so I'm not sure on that.

Cyborg armor sets (cosmetic only)

Basically armors that have some body parts replaced by endoskeleton or they have exoskeleton parts that enhance dwarf's performance with what they specialize at.

Examples:
-driller: both arms replaced by cybernetically enchanced arms for handling drills better and bulkier legs to help him carry the weight of his equipment while he drills
-gunner: much bulkier arms to carry the heavy weaponry easier aswell as torso being visibly replaced at least partially
-scout: replaced legs with more futuristic stilt looking ones for jumping and landing, to help him move around caves much better and get less harm, right hand robotic to help him hold onto the hook better.
-engineer: whole right arm replaced with a robotic one to help him build faster and better, left forearm with a terminal to vall back his sentries and/or control them

Bonus hat and skin color idea for this:
-robotic dwarven skull that still allows you to put on your beards and such!
-alternate hat: full head covering helmet with some high tech visor that'd improve dwarf's sight/perception
-metal skin color, similiar to gold skin color we have but metallic to combo it with previous armors like roughneck and dawn of the dread.

A rework/balance patch to the Ebonite Mutation event would be great as i find it to be the most frustrating event in the game. the constant running around to constantly collect the powerup is tedious and very reliant on the random terrain you are on and the melee only damage to the ebonite creators PLUS the fact that normal bugs spawn makes it very hair pulling. Also the fact that you are reliant on the spawn rate of the ebonite creators as the last time i did this event, not enough spawned and failed the event through no fault of my own is the cherry on top of how frustrating this event is.

i propose to obviously up the spawn rate so you wont get screwed over (pretty sure this is a bug anyway) and to stop the spawning of normal bugs to even it out. i also suggest to either make the pickaxe boost you get to be either permanent for the duration of the event or either add another buff on top like a speed boost or damage resistants or both where its random each pick up you get. also make it a pickup rather than a the machine randomly throwing it out would make the random terrain issue better.

i hope this event is addressed because its the only thing i dread and highly dislike and if i come across this event and will probably actively avoid it unless someone else wants to do it

Don't know if this has already been suggested, but could we get an actual reward for bringing Doretta's head back to the drop pod during Escort Duty?
Even if it's something small like a hat or some extra XP, it'd be a much better incentive than a line of dialogue and a slightly different victory screen. Yeah it's cute that we made the dwarves happy but you begin to question if it's worth continuing to do so when you're riding a zipline directly to the drop pod and you end up dropping the head down a cliff because a Cave Leech decided to spawn directly next to the damn pod.

was reading a rando review of drg, and in there egg hunts were described as an operation where you 'have to invade alien nests to retrieve their eggs'
this got me thinking, egg hunt isnt really like that, there are just blobs of organic matter around the map with eggs in them.

but i am now imagining a mission where you are actually invading a huge alien nest/breeding place, a hive, created by the aliens from some form of organic matter, with eggs and young undeveloped aliens all over the place but also guardian-ish enemies.
similar to a beehive but then large scale on hoxxes, i think this could make for a really cool mission type with great potential for a lot of things, maybe make it a bit spookier even, with enemies around every corner possible.
but giving the aliens a bit more of an identity, it would show more that we really are invading the homes of the indigenous lifeforms that live on hoxxes.

Dear developers, please note that the Lok-1 is quite weak compared to other primary weapons. At the moment, any weapon can be used effectively without overclocks, but Lok-1 without overclocks (executioner or ECR) is significantly weaker. The gun likely needs base stats improved:

Lock on acquisition is faster
More ammo 24-48
Faster reload speed

And an overclock overhaul:
Any overclock that increases max locks gets faster lock on speed

I understand that you yourself know how to keep the balance and you have done a wonderful job. We all appreciate it. But some things are still not as good as they could be.

When someone dies right outside the pod and everyone is in the pod, pod leaves, despite fact that it might be an easy revive.
Idea: when someone is down(ed) and all other alive players are in pod, start a 10 second Iron will style timer. If no one moves, pod leaves. If one or more of alive players exits pod, timer goes away and pod doesn’t leave until all enter pod again (after hopefully reviving downed dwarf/dwarves) or pod just departs on its own normal countdown timer.

Just came here to say in case it wasn't already in the works, Agressive Venting for the drak should probably be buffed. The main problem is that you want to synergize it with manual dump to save ammo since unlike the minigun equivalent, this is an ammo limited gun with an ammo limiting overclock. But doing so linear decreases your heat damage and radius and can sometimes make it feel like it does nothing at all. Even at 100% strength it has trouble igniting guards. Not very satisfying to use sometimes. I'd say do this:
-increase heat radius and damage by a bit, but leave fear radius

#

-have heat generation to power of vent be nonlinear to reward micromanagement, ex. at 50% heat you can 70% damage and radius, 75% is 85% effectiveness, etc. so it has diminishing returns by the upper part
-perhaps some way to build heat faster, either by having an increased heat gen downside on the gun, or maybe a mod that trades off higher heat for some other benefit? but that may be too powerful and doesn't fit the design pattern of regular upgrade mods.

idea to fix the competition or lack thereof between defender and hawkeye turret mods.
-convert damage increase from defender to a rate of fire increase so it is the same dps but costs more ammo (so it actually has a downside)
-buff retargeting speed of the base sentry so that defender can actually make use of the higher rof, I was thinking maybe a 10-20% increase here. this is applied to base because I don’t think there’s much reason to give defender even more of an edge over hawkeye.
-possibly have hawkeye target enemies closest to friendly dwarves whenever possible to give it a useful upside. there are probably some other slight hawkeye buffs scattered around this channel that could be worth taking a look at as well, the hawkeye buff was not my main focus here truthfully.
the goal of this is obviously to diversify mod choices for the sentry but also to apply a slight nerf to the sentry as a whole because it is by far and away the most powerful support tool in the game. I was also thinking instead of converting all of the damage over to rof it could just be maybe 3-4 because having to double the rof to maintain the same dps could be too much of an ammo cost and drive the mod too far into the dirt.

lmg mkll needs a buff. gemini is basically double damage and more max ammo, and more fire rate (since 2 are shooting sometimes at same time). either the single turret needs an added random shot tracking missle, or way more damage buff, or maybe a nuke radius effect when built, out of ammo, or recovered etc. just something. i would like the t1 for turrets to actually be a choice. another way to make single turret choosable is if it can be stuck on walls/ molly/ or give it legs like itty bet-c

Hi, idk if you look at the steam suggestions threads but I really would love to see in depth armor customization. I want to pick what boots I'm wearing, what gloves, what harness, what legs, what shoulder pads, etc as well as the colors. I think the legacy armor could be left as is and a new custom armor could be implemented that could act as a credit sink to give end game players something to grind for. To add more depth each piece could have a buff or debuff or it could be purely cosmetic. By buff I mean something like 0.5% more minerals mined (very small buffs for the min/max nerds). I would be happy with this being purely cosmetic as well. The major downside to this is that there WILL be clipping issues with the armor every time new pieces are added, so this would be Dev time to fix it that could be otherwise used elsewhere. The main reason I think this should be end-game is because the customization system currently present is fairly robust and new players don't need to be overwhelmed. Just imagine you have a Dwarf that looks EXACTLY the way you want them to look. Thanks for reading. 🙂 Rock and Stone!

Suggestions about Bosco.

I tired to worry about this guy. Every time when someone joins a game, this little fella explodes. Every time when I departs on a Drop Pod, poor little drone stays alone in a caves.
So, two suggestions:

When someone joins a game, Bosco could just off. Drone folds (I dunno how to say it correctly) manipulators, puts out the light on "eyes" and slowly get on the ground. Dwarf can gently pick up him (like a charge of C4) with some phrase, like "You'll coming with me, fella". Drone just dissaperes. If other players will leave a game, Bosco appearing above dwarf, like it flies out of his backpack.
Add a small hatch inside of Drop Pod on a ceilling, something like "Drone's nest", where are robot appeares from. When a mission ends, he will fly into that hatch.

Also, add some interraction with him. May be Bosco could "sing" something using beeping, may be dwarf could have a random conversation with him etc. It's kinda lonely when you play in solo. I want feel this little fella more alive, and I want a better fate for it.

The Double Barrel Boomstick OC is awkwardly sandwiched between Jumbo shells and Stuffed shells and in turn can feel redundant, as if it is a missed oppurtunity since they all do similar things. Lets give it something.

I had the idea that it is capable of deflecting projectiles in a small cone infront of you for a split second as you fire, sending the projectile towards where youre looking, giving it something more unique to justify the mandatory 2 ammo per click. Reflected projectiles deal high damage to enemies in a small AoE, to reward the timing and risk involved (Totally not inspired by Ultrakills parry)

Add a fire-breathing dragon to Deep Rock Galactic (magma core only)

Ideas:

Make it a machine event where you have to construct some sort of laser cage to trap it
Make it its own game mode where you have to collect parts from across the cave and find the dragons lair in order to capture it and send it to DRG for research
Make it a random event where you can find the dragons cave, defeating it will reveal the treasures it was protecting (gold and nitra)
Make it another way to obtain rare cosmetics by having it protect a cache with a cosmetic in it (crown...?)

Pros:

Awesome new "boss fight"
Can add interesting boss mechanics like a spray of fire that you have to dodge, stomps, etc
Gives more variety in random events
Could have its own cosmetics to obtain from it (dragon scale pickaxes, weapon frameworks, etc)
It's a dragon

Cons

Might not fit the aesthetic of DRG
Could be too uncommon if it only appears in one biome
Devs would have to spend a lot of time designing a boss as well as new geometry for it

Let me know what you guys think!

just an idea I had.
Driller secondary:
Name: IG-16 "Knuckle Dusters"
Explosive shotgun gauntlets that each hold one shot, the shells will only fire if the gauntlets hit something.
Each gauntlet can hit twice, with the inital impact and then the shotgun blast.
The shotgun blast does the majority of the damage in a cone infront.

Overclock ideas:

Clean: Second-law, shotguns trigger without impact and send the user back.

Balanced: Thunderclap, double punches and shocks all enemies hit, reduced max ammo.

Balanced: Brute force, shotgun blasts can terraform and gain improved armor breaking, slower attackspeed and reload.

Unstable: Flurry, greatly increased magazine capacity, ammo capacity, and attackspeed. greatly reduced damage.

Might be a terrible idea, but bear with me:

Deepcore 40mm PGL overclock: "Skipper"
Adds ??% velocity to projectile.
Upon impact, the projectile "bounces" with renewed (though probably not 100%) velocity and arms itself, exploding on the next impact.

We've packed your payload with even more propellant. Unfortunately, the impact fuse isn't quite as quick on the draw ...
(not sure if you'd need a damage nerf or not since you'd become a walking source of "hold my beer" moments)

Can we get a hub redesign at some point? It would be fun to have a firing range to tryout different loadouts, weapon overclocks and maybe see damage numbers on a target dummy? Add a sort of obstacle course just to try out mobility and reach of thrown object for example, you could add some mini-games like the barrel game we have at the bar. Also, what about a cafeteria? We could sit around, eat our sandwiches and maybe play card games while we wait for joiners on public games? Hey, we could event bet credits on these card games, if management allows it.

I had a weird idea for a possible Mactera interaction. Essentially, if you manage to get directly above one and hit it with a power attack, you'll "spike" it. This essentially grounds the Mactera, causing take an extra chunk of damage and be briefly stunned

Please separate Flares / Flashlights from each other in the options in the key bindings. It may not be important for many, but when using an alternative input device such as the Razer Tartaturs, this double assignment can cause problems. This could also affect people with limitations. I think it would be quite easy to solve by simply providing two additional options, one for Flares and one for Flashlight, leaving the current option for all others. That way you can just split it up if needed.

Unlocal Fauna
Heavy duty operations in a nearby region has caused creatures from there to flee to this one!
Basically selects a region and allows any creatures exclusive to that biome to spawn in this mission.
Except for trawlers, they can't swim in rock. I hope.

Lootbug Infestation
There are a lot more lootbugs. Hoxxes IV has never been more cozy.

Acidic Insides
The aliens here have a particularly interesting mutation causing their insides to melt into an acid substance upon death, leaving a puddle relative to its size.

Confirmed BET-C Signal
A BET-C is guaranteed to be somewhere in this cave.

Glyphid Setback
This cave doesn't have Glyphid type creatures as the most dominant form of life. Expect less of them and more of other types of creatures.

Big Bugs
All enemies are a bit bigger. That's it. ||Lootbugs too||

Thin Skinned ||I don't have a good name for this||
The enemies here are extra susceptible to melee damage!

Crossbow mod/overclock idea: Tranquilizer Bolts.

Idea A; Basically, it gives the bolts dramatically increased stun chance(Maybe guaranteed?) and duration. Perhaps the bolts have no stun chance by default and the stun chance only occurs upon a weakpoint hit? Or at least a non-armor hit. Perhaps the concept of special bolts could feed into this?

Idea B: Makes the bolt inflict a long-lasting heavy(ish) slow upon weakpoint/non-armor hits. Could be used to further outmaneuver dangerous enemies. Some other outlandish idea may have the debuff rendering the target more vulnerable to other stun or fear effects?

I honestly don’t know what else to add. I just really liked the concept of a crossbow tranq in the game. I deliberately left some stuff vague in order to leave it open to balance. Tell me what you think over in #suggestion-discussion!

I wish I could see the beer effects other dwarves have. This would help other people get the hint that you're buying them the special beer for a particular effect in the space rig before a mission. Also, if someone joins a game in progess with pots of gold effect, you can know to let them handle the gold mining. Same with the dark morkite beer. Sometimes I buy a beer for 2 other people, we start the mission, then the 4th joins late but doesn't know we have a certain beer.

The crossbow we all saw? What if one of the upgrades for the last tier is if you kill something with a critical you can retrieve the arrow.

The main issue with this are exploders, I cannot hear them until they blow up- Is there any way you could add a voice line to exploder when they're close to you, or maybe add a visualise sound effects option like fortnite has?

A new mission type that capitalizes on the uniqueness of Refinery Missions (other mission types like Extraction, Elimination and Mining Expedition are similar to existing objectives in just about any other game. Not the same for Refinery, usually giving it a fairly unique experience).

Could call it "Eradication" or "Pest Control". One large machine installation in a large, central cave, with lots of tunnels and smaller rooms that branch out in a circular formation around said large room. X number of smaller installations are dropped around the cave system and must be connected via a cable/pipe to the central machine. Gathering resources from the local cave system (think a mix of things, like Boolo Caps, Apoca Blooms, Ebonuts or even things specific to this mission type), you then deposit them in the central machine to concoct a brew (could do a thing where you have to do little minigames on the central machine to help do the chemistry, much like the hacking thing on the Patrol Bots). Once concocted, said brew/chemical starts to get pumped out to the smaller machines and disperses into the caves as a gas.

At this point, a wave-based fight will start; The chemical is like an insecticide to Glyphids but only works at short range and is carried lightly by oxygen, meaning it takes a little while for the gas to properly spread out and secure the caves. Fight off wave after wave of increasingly tough enemies as they try to come and destroy the installation in a desparate attempt to keep their homestead.

According to this formula, this would absolutely be a multi-stage process, much like the Sabotage Missions or Salvage Operations. At the end, when the machine is finished and the tunnels have been sufficiently "disinfected", it is stated that "this area should be safe for mining operations... for now.", after which you get to leave.

Sorry for the block of text, I know dwarves don't like reading.

A potential alternative for the Engineer's turrets, as mentioned in #drg-chat : A drone launcher. Limited ammo capacity, only one drone can be in use for balance purposes. Each drone latches onto a target and does slowly escalating chip damage over several seconds. Optimal targets would be large enemies such as Naedocyte Breeders, Oppressors, bulk detonators, and dreadnoughts.

Possible pairing with the Engineer's primary weapons where the remaining chip damage is dealt all at once when shot, with the damage being different depending on equipped mods for that weapon.

Chu Ko Nu over clock for the crossbow (look it up if you are curious). It would be an unstable, it would shoot a three shot burst for each click (and obviously have a three mag size) .

Deepdives need to give more battlepass exp for next season. The fact you can do 1 Haz 3 mission and get 1.4k BP exp but doing a full 3 stage elite deepdive (which is literally just 3 full missions on haz 4 up to 5) give at most 1.8k is stupid. should count each stage as a separate missions and calculate your score per stage for BP exp. so in the end its not counting the deepdive as a singular mission but a group of 3 and give around 3-5k battlepass exp.

The Hawkeye Turret upgrade is up against rough competition against the Defender upgrade with its incredible damage boost, and the limited targeting angle is honestly not as much of a downside as it should be. That leaves Hawkeye remaining niche in usage.

What could help give it an unique niche to stand out is that its shots go around armor, just like Lok1’s Seeker rounds, since turrets normally only aim at enemies center. This plays nicely with hawkeyes ping targeting feature which currently lacks purpose because why would you ping an enemy when you can just.. kill it yourself. With this you can ping armored enemies such as praetorians and oppressors to passively help you wittle them down as long as the turret has line of sight with them.

This makes Hawkeyes role more distinct as the big enemy wittler in the final turret upgrade tier, while Defender remains the trash mob murderer

In biomes with passive environmental damage such as radiation or freezing wind, lootbugs shouldn't be affected by the damage.

Just a idea for a overclock for the goo gun, but i think it would really help make direct damage more useful.

if you added a overclock that either adds a third shooting type, or replace the charged shot with a stream of goo, making no drops, while it wouldn't be very good for the DOT, the quick burst could be something of a line breaker, able to 1) be a bit more useful against tanker targets 2) provide a burst of damage that if combined with the direct impact damage upgrades, could be really fun to use

Of course the downsides could be stuff like
-more ammo consumed on charge shot
-no spray bits on charged shots / reduced amount
-less range

Suggestion:
A balanced or unstable overclock for the Nishanka Boltshark X-80

Stats:

Fire a volatile and highly explosive bolt shaft

Bolts cannot be retrieved
Reduced ammo capacity

Further suggestions:

Instead of an instantaneous explosion, perhaps the bolt could be made to explode within a few second time-period?
The idea of bolts that can deal elemental damage is very versatile. The devs could make incendiary bolts, electric bolts or bolts laced with poison.

Suggestion:

Promotes can grand you character modifiers that work like overclocks

The Modifiers can give you buffs in something aswell as a debuff in something depending on the color of the modifier (green, yellow and red working exactly like the gunoverclocks)

Example:
Green: + 5 Armor

Yellow: +2 speed bonus -10% mineral carry

Red: Disables Running +50 Health and Armor

1 can be advised to each class and can be replaced at the loadout station
i hope this is detailed enough to have an image in the Devs Heads

Sometimes, the dwarves get really drunk and they don't equip the equipment loadout they intended to bring for a mission. Or maybe sometimes mods interfere with the loadout. A good preventive measure would be a UI element that shows your equipped loadout once inside the drop pod. The UI element would only show up once the mission is selected and the player is inside the drop pod, at which point they don't really need to look at anything important and the screen space wouldn't be needed for anything else really. The equipment loadout could be displayed under the mission parameters, at the bottom of the screen. The player wouldn't need to click or confirm anything, the information would be displayed, and the player could either stay in the pod in confirmation or leave it to change the build before the mission starts.

Since the latest patch (Season 01 Patch 11) The devs have increased the font size of the team player names and logos in corner for "readability". Imo it was fine as it was before and is now a pain on the eyes.
Therefore, give the players the option to decrease/decrease that font size. It is already an option within the settings under 'HUD Size' that changes all other in-game text and the chat box, but not the other player names/class images. Amend this so all are size adjustable so the players have the opportunity to customise the font to their preference rather than a sudden 'one-size-for-all' model

So, darkness is a main feature of the game but we have an option to reduce shadow effects for better fps which will make the game more visible but more playable.
At the same time smoke effects makes the atmospheric of the game more enjoyable it also break the game fps but we don't have an option to reduce or completely remove them, and its not even that needed to the core of the game as the darkness factor.
Shadow quality doesn't reduce much fps much to make a needed to reduce its quality but some smokes effects can obliterate a lot of fps.
My suggestion is to allow us to control more of what we see on the screen, to reduce ONLY the smoke effects, ONLY the shadow, ONLY the decals, etc

Allow us to order more then 1 gag/fun beers if we're alone/solo in our rig, Instead of always giving 1 beer we can choose if we want 1,2,3, or 4, beers and then we can drink away! (This does not affect buff beers)

Lloyd 2 smart stout please extra foam on the top!

The more drinks you order it will charge your beer minerals more,

1 blackout Stout causes 3 Starch nuts, if I order 4 in one go it'll cost a total of 12 nuts.

corrosive sludge pump overclock: self adhering compounds

puddles merge with eachother to make bigger puddles
puddles slow enemies far more
charged shots go through glyphids, splattering onto the ground regardless of obstructing glyphids

Some update sooner rather than later, please take another look into inconsistent nitra rates in Deep Dives.

Currently, the average amount of nitra in DDs is intentionally much higher than normal missions, heck I'd say it's even overkill. However, there seems to be some buggy code interaction that occasionally causes DDs or EDDs to have much lower nitra than it's even possible to get in normal missions, as is the case with this week's EDD.
I don't want the devs to just buff the average rates like they did before, in fact I think they should nerf the average nitra spawns for DDs, but this issue really ought to be fixed. I really enjoy the challenge of EDDs, but it's not fun to artificially lose even while using ammo pretty sparingly when this bug never happens in normal Hazard 5 missions.

Some thoughts for new bosses: 1 - Boss Shapeshifter (backstory: some organism that infected large asteroid and now lives in its core and "consumes" that peace of rock). Special ability is to shift orientation of the level. Ex: players stand on ground, then after some damage to the boss, he puts spikes or lava geysers on walls or ceiling and rotates itself, making players fall in it's traps. 2 - Swarm Mother: a bunch of special swarmers, that after some time form a large cocoon that evolves into Swarm Mother. On top of that, I thought about new mission type, like escort duty, but instead of Doretta /God bless this magnificent peace of technology/ make some kind of robot that players can drive and make their way to some new caves mine hearthstones themselves etc.

Jewel/Mineral Rings. They can be made of, Bittergem, Jadiz, Enor Pearls, Umanite, Magnite, Bismor, Croppa, Morkite, Dystrum, Aquarqs, Tyrant Shards, Error Cubes, and Pieces of Ommoran Heartstone. The ring itself can be made of either, Gold, Silver, or Iron. They have no gameplay effect.
(Note: The more bizarre choices like Ommoran Heartstone, Aquarqs, ect. Will cost a lot of credits, due to their rarity, while Error Cubes will cost one Error Cube per ring.)
[You can also choose which finger they go on. You can have a max of 10, one for each finger and thumb.]

Let us choose between the normal flares and bigger but slower recharging ones that also last longer. Either that, or it can also be useful to be able to choose to have another gun (or ammo) for the scout, that would fire flares that lasted for longer while carrying less of them, that would also cover a larger area with its light, while also dealing much greater damage when hitting enemies (and allies 👀)

Just naming off a few cave mutation ideas I had. Some might be good, most are probably bad-

Insecure landing site: Drop pod departs twice as fast after being called
Nitra Scarcity: Less nitra spawns
Flashlight Disruption: Flashlights will periodically stop working (or just not work at all)
Massive/shrunken caverns: Bigger/Smaller caves have a better chance of being generated.
Healing bugs: red sugar doesn't naturally spawn. Instead, enemies have a chance to drop it upon death
Intoxicating Atmosphere: You're drunk by default lmao
Lootbug-mania: Many, many lootbugs
Volatile Atmosphere: ALL explosions gain a boost to their blast radius, sticky flames/incendiary grenade last longer, and friends and foe alike get the burn status faster.

A mission type where you are always riding on pipes, and always being attacked by probably flying enemies, you can jump between pipes, but you can't stop, it's a rail shooter now
If possible, maybe see if you can get some tracks from player constructions in on site extraction, if you select from missions over an hour long, a lot of them should be fun roller coasters, put a few of them together, you should get a fun track
Possible lore explanation: there has been a cave in disrupting an important pipe, you need to find a new valid route, and thin out some of the bugs, cave ins happen a lot, so there is a good deal of pipe to work with, another crew will take care of the rest

-Mule Rework-

(I had to cut the explanation at the beginning and for the combat mules because it was way too long)

One thing that I want to say about mules, is that you should be able to give a mule the chance to not move at all even if you're far away from it. It can get very frustrating and we all know that.

(Fix for that : holding the button to call the mule will make him stay there until the next call)

So, here's the list :

Normal (big) mule : highest capacity/slow (current) movement speed.
You can only bring 1 at a time.

Mini mules : reduced capacity but you can bring more of them, with a maximum of 3.

(This will be more important than you think, since bringing too many would result in a loss of money if not used.

Also, I would like to see longer mission, with like the chance to discover more objectives, either primary or secondary, as you explore the location, making this choice much more viable)

Combat mule : No storage capacity/high price. Also, better armaments will cost more.
Since it doesn't have storage capacity, you will be able to buy 1 mini mule if you want to.

Note: the combat mule it's not something that you should bring every mission for an easier life.. instead, the price and the lack of storage will bring it down from being chosen, not making it the obvious choice.

So, I've talked about having a maximum amount of storage capacity, and by doing that, nitra will be even more useful, because you would be able to call a small drop pod (or the entire drop pod, while also giving the opportunity to leave singularly without bringing the whole team in online matches) where you can empty your mules in order to keep using them. Or maybe they can implement a drop pod just for mules that would also cost a lot less, being lower than the drop of ammo.

I'm very VERY passionate about this game, and I just want to help them making a better game, which is not saying that it's a bad game, but it surely has its problems.

"Infestation Clear" mission type

You get dropped into a massive hive of angry bugs that just so happens to be in an extremely mineral rich area. Your team is sent in with a minehead and is tasked with exterminating the local population so DRG can gain easier access to the minerals.

After killing the initial bugs and the minehead lands in the cave huge waves of bugs will starting spawning in. You have to survive X amount of waves (depending on mission length) with a short amount of time in-between waves to mine Nitra and whatever other minerals are in the cave.

In the Miner's Manual entry for BET-C, it's said that the Xynarch Charge-suckers feed on the electric charge and the wiring of the BET-C units, which was (probably) the reason why DRG opted for sending down live crew instead of robots. Considering the Rival tech is comprised almost entirely of robots and unmanned equipment, wouldn't it make sense that they suffer the same fate? Once the current season ends, prospectors and patrol bots could be kept as random encounters, affected by the Xynarch parasites. The prospectors would still give minerals, and the patrol bots could still be hackable after defeating the charge suckers attached to them. It would be a really neat bit of consistency for the world of DRG, and a way to keep some of the gameplay introduced by the season.

Maybe a CTF mode where you have to haul a special Mineral, like how Jadiz works, a Payload with Molly/Doretta, ofc that means Payload Race, etc. If all of these were made you could probably just make a Spinoff with Cross-progression/Cosmetic Sharing, call it Deep Rock Combat or smthn, maybe make it a battle between Deep Rock and Dwarves hired by the Prospectors or rival companies?

Radioactive Version of Bulkie?Like, we're already know,that Hoxxes does have an radioactive exploders already,then,when they evolve further into Bulk Detonator,it will be slightly faster,than normal one,and he's death explosion will be smaller a bit, but will cover a lot of area with radiation,that will last ..like,20-30 seconds.
Second suggestion-make an Antlion?..He will live in Sandblaster Corridors and make a big holes somewhere.When dwarf fall into that hole,he will begin "Sucking" into lion's jaws.When Caught,he can be saved by teammates,and bug will do an DoT-Damage,like Leeches.Lion can be killed quite easily.(Basically,Cave Leeches upside-down.)

this is an idea I had for the shooting range, which has been suggested a lot throughout the years. so the thing is, you would host/join a shooting range session inside this simulated holographic enviroment, the host would be able to set up modifiers, spawn different kinds of holographic bugs, and even change the terrain/biome inside the dome. there would be a weapons terminal inside the chamber, kind of like in an airlock, where you would be able to change your loadouts and maybe even wardrobe, and when ready, all of the party would then enter the simulated enviroment.
if all dwarves die, the simulation ends and nurse drones come out of chambers in the walls to resurrect everyone. maybe there could also be a little bar to test out fighting under the influence, who knows...

So I've been thinking of more ways to make the escape sequence interesting, since personally I feel like it's got a lot of unused potential. They have the potential to be super tense and adrenaline pumping, but unless you have to backtrack to save a teammate or are playing solo, you'll probably be there long before Molly. Here're a few ideas I had, which may be a bit much if combined, but I think one or two of them implemented on their own could work:

-Have cave-in's occur during the escape sequence. They'd have the typical effect of slowing you down and affecting terrain like usual, but maybe if possible, they could cause some tunnels you've already explored to get blocked off, forcing you either to plan in advance or re-route on the go

-On higher hazard levels, tougher enemies have a higher spawn rate during the escape sequence, and you're almost guaranteed to have a run-in with at least one of them. This could be stuff like Oppressors/Praetorians on Haz 4, and Bulk Detonators on Haz 5. Hell, this might be overdoing it, but imagine getting chased down by a Dreadnought as you make a mad dash to the escape pod!

-Simply increase the enemy spawn rate during the escape sequence. This would mainly be to make drilling straight to the drop pod take more skill and/or teamwork, as you'll have to worry about more enemies following you through your tunnel.

I'm thinking of luminosity, duration upgrades and possible gun synergies like better accuracy or other gun stats based on the color of flare is used.

Gunner flare (better reload or or a small ammo regen to a 5-10% of ammo capacity)

Driller flare (shooting terrain weakens it or you have a possible chance of fear shots when shooting at a swarm)

Scout flare (bullets could leave a glowing spot on enemies or terrain or bullets hitting an enemy automatically pings them to allies #ripBosco)

Engineer flare (bullets shot at sentries can refill it's magazine when low or umm...you get a mag of "Smart bullets"? Cause.... engineer smart....or something..........)

Harpoons are notorious for bringing down the biggest of mammals in the deep blue waters but... do they work against alien lifeform? I say yes!

Shoots harpoons of various sizes (modification option) at different rates of fire based on size of harpoon shot.

Main feature is that harpoons can be equipped with rope that can be used to slow down enemies when planted into the ground or wall. If rope isn't used, the harpoon does more damage per projectile if multi-shot mods are added as well.

Pickaxe upgrade that increases its base (normal attack) damage.
Options on where it could go:
•Could be an option for slot 1 (but then damage increase is significant to compensate lack of power attack)
•Third row of pickaxe upgrades
•Mastery unlock for having all pickaxe upgrades (but then it would be a small increase to compensate its passive-ness)

Breach Cutter OC: Creeping Death
+Attacks nearest bug within four meter radius
+Projectile is spherical
+Projectile lasts longer
-Damage decreased
-Size and speed of projectile decreased
-Max ammo capacity decreased
-Shot breaks on contact with terrain

Description: The boys down in R&D took inspiration from the shock crystals of Hoxxes and freak weather events of old to design this one.

The idea for this OC came from a Terraria weapon, the Magnet Sphere. A slow-moving energy projectile that attacks enemies that get near it and only dissipates after either a few seconds or hitting the terrain. The intent for this OC is that it would travel the same distance as a regular Breach Cutter shot, but at a slower pace. Additionally, it rapidly strikes the bug nearest to the sphere as long as it's active.

yo i got more wonky ocs that heavily change gun playstyles, enjoy!

unstable minigun OC: lead maelstrom (replacement of bullet hell that makes it an actual bullet hell)
"with enough beer and an error cube the eggheads at R&D managed to wedge said cube into the minigun, resulting in it nearly doubling the amount of ammo and bullets sent out, however we had to lower the yield behind the ammo since versions without lowered firepower had a tendency of exploding violently, once again; dont tell management"

far more ammo
for every bullet that would be fired, two are fired instead
gun starts at max accuracy and shoots faster as it heats up

spread gets worse as the gun heats up
deals damage to you upon overheating
-bullets deal less damage

if i balanced this right this essentially would lead to the gunner's minigun becoming a fickle but extremely powerful weapon built to go from single target damage to just shooting as many bullets as physically possible, just

try not to overheat this thing, its got quite the back-blast when it comes to overheating

I would like to see about a use for left over perk points. I dont have as many hours as a lot of people in the game, but I have enough to have all the perks. I continue to play and rack up more and more and I was wondering if those perk points could get used for something rather than just sitting there. Maybe like a point tree that gives miniscule changes to a certain class. Kind of like the Borderlands 3 guardian rank where you can select different attributes to increase. Maybe for this game you could have trees for survivability, teamwork, and gathering. Not sure how bad this could be for scaling since this isnt as in-depth of an rpg like Borderlands. They seem to have their trees asymptotic where you can approach a set number, but cant go over it.

I don't know if this would be unbalanced, but I think a perk that improves your pickaxe damage, attack speed, or power swing charge rate while you have no ammo on your primary and secondary could be interesting. I wouldn't want it to push players toward emptying magazines quickly and just using pickaxe + vampire, but at the same time I think it could really help with survivability on higher difficulties when you are dealing with near constant swarms and you don't have time to resupply.

I wouldnt mind seeing Second Wind get a linear ramp up to the 12% boost, where running for 1 second gets a 3% boost, 2s gets 6%, etc. Right now the skill feels bad because even in calm situations, sprinting for 4s is relatively rare, and this would help with relocating in combat (like a worse but passive dash) while hopefully not impacting the moment to moment fighting.

Omen Towers should maybe scale better to the number of players. Instead of how they work right now, they generate with four pads and no visible tower and, when started, the tower extends out of the middle, with two tiers plus and extra tier per player over two (so, one to two players get two tiers, three players get three, four players get four). Some of the pads that generate might be inactive if not all four tiers generate.

When you’re downed, your Steve enters bezerk state. The longer Steve has been alive with you, the higher damage and speed bonus he gets.

A way to heal or put metal armor on Steve, or replace his broken natural armor. Maybe an upgrade type system, where if you still have a Steve when your cooldown is done, you can heal/armor Steve. Would make longer missions a little easier while maintaining the one Steve per player rule.

**New Mission: **Rail Line

Deep Rock Galactic is looking to put some permanent infrastructure up on Hoxxes and need to solve a few logistical problems. To do that, R&D have developed the T.E.R — the Tactical Excavator Railway. Once dropped planet-side, Terry will dig from point A to point B, placing high-strength steel line along the way. While outfitted with a few turret guns, the team is expected to protect it while it does its job. But there's a problem.

Terry hasn't just riled up the usual bugs. Something about the constant pounding as it lays rail has attracted a new kind of bug — the Glyphid Leviathan. This snake-like bug burrows underground and is hundreds of meters long. It's a constant threat to the mission and needs to be dealt with.

Further Information
I'm hoping we can make a fun escort mission. Doretta is very stop and go and is about as armored as a baked potato. It's more babysitting than anything. The train would move from one end of the cave to the other with three checkpoints. There'd be three compartments, each with lights and a turret and a place to deposit on the back.

At each checkpoint, the Leviathan attacks, wrapping around the train. Instead of health, it's a damage check. You need to deal enough damage to the thing in a short amount of time or it will damage the train. Each time it's damaged, the train moves slower and loses the lights and turrets on one of the compartments. If damaged three times, mission failed.

If you make it through the checkpoints, you then have a boss fight with the Leviathan. Depending on how well you did on the damage checks, you could go into the fight with three turrets on your side. The Leviathan would weave through the terrain, attack by striking like the metal claws on the Caretaker or shooting acid.

Players need to keep an eye out for weakpoints as they move through the walls and shoot them while dealing with swarms.

New Hurricane overclocks: Swarm Missiles, and Hellstorm.

These two are relatively similar overclocks, but have two slightly different effects.

Initially the first effect is that your initial missile does slightly less damage. However if the missile has been in flight for at least 1 second (Or however many) it will split into 5-6 missiles that have a total damage that is significantly greater than a normal missile's damage. The idea behind this is to create a large aoe skillshot overclock, to maximize an area that you can lay havoc on. To make things a bit easier the missile speed gets a bit slower so you can get a few of these missile swarms into the sky before raining down missile hell.

Now the difference between these overclocks.. effectively they function pretty much the same, except Hellstorm will convert most of its damage into fire damage and create some sticky flames at points of impact. Think of the mini-missiles like little napalm grenades. Once again, the damage is lessened though until the missile splits into its mini-missiles.

P.S. After thinking it over, you could even incorporate a cryo version of this overclock called Blizzard or Icestorm. The missiles are filled with essentially liquid nitrogen.

A new active perk with 4 tiers

Bounty's Mark
PASSIVE: Targets are marked for 10/20/35/50% longer (Tier 4 also lets you mark more than one target at a time)
Active: Special Mark a target which increases damage dealt to non-weakpoints by 10%/20%/35%/50%
2 Minute Cooldown
To activate hold down LMB whilst marking a target

Idea of this perk is to give people like scouts a more recon esque active perk. Whilst this is good to deal with those pesky praetorians that appear every few moments or so it can also serve a better purpose at missions such as ones like elimination where the main goal is a big tanky target.
It also comes with the hidden benefit of causing people in public lobbies to ping more frequently as it gives more incentive to marking down Hi Priority targets such as exploders or infectors. It's also one of those rare instances where non-weakpoint damage is increased rather than weakpoint damage being increased causing another damage bonus to setups that already do loads of damage by hitting the weakpoints.

For PlayStation version.
It would like to improve the setting options.
Audio settings I lack the ability to adjust the volume of my microphone and the microphone volume of my fellow dwarves. Also the volume settings of the Jubox ..
General settings I would welcome the opportunity to use the written chat at least in the HUB outside the mission if I do not use the keyboard and mouse, I see no reason for this pre-existing feature not to be controlled by the controller, it would definitely improve the quality of life for all dwarves playing outside a group of friends ..
Setting the search difficulty of the game you could remember the game even after turning off the application, as it does not do automatic refresh usually it rather leads to connecting to someone you did not even want here, and then to several other loadingum ..
It is clear to me that you must solve more urgent things such as stability of connections between players, new content, etc.
Perhaps even these small things will be solved one day ...

Allow any bugs with unbreakable armor or perhaps heavy armor to remain after death - when dying, the armor remains as a hollowed-out husk, with collision, that doesn't just instantly despawn. This would not only make killing a dreadnought more satisfying, but also allow for you to visually see the results of a larger fight, making the game feel generally more rewarding. These remaining armor pieces could have unique voice lines, ranging from unchanged 'look here' for something common like praetorian chunks and whatnot to mistaking an oppressor husk for a live one and then correcting it, and complimenting each other on the kill of a dreadnought. While this is mainly intended to be seen for glyphid oppressors, praetorians, and the three classes of dreadnought, it would also be good to see on q'ronar shellbacks, and perhaps those massive legs left behind by detonators. Glyphid guards, menaces, and other similar small or farther-off bugs with sparse heavy armor would likely not be affected by this change. NOTE that each could be destroyed, more easily with a pickaxe (or drills) than anything else, though enough explosives or even bullets would likely do the trick too, this preventing effective soft-locks or having to maneuver around one that dies in an inopportune spot. That said, with unbreakable armor husks, while it can be shattered in this state, it's still quite solid compared to mere heavy armor. Fully destroying any piece would see it shatter into particles, perhaps by segment, which shrink and disperse.

+Bugs shot begin to hallucinate
-Damage significantly decreased

-Ammo capacity decreased

Description: The boys down in R&D have cooked up something special with this one.

The intent for this OC is to induce a berserker rage in any bugs that are shot, making them attack anything nearby. The bigger the target, the more shots you need to pump into it. Doesn't last long though, about ten seconds is all you'll get. Won't work on dreadnoughts, but oppressors and Praetorians are fair game.

Introducing the brand new Glyphid, the "Glyphid Lockjaw"!

What is this glyphid type? Well I'm glad you asked, prospective glyphid bai- I mean miner 4378! These are some sinister little buggers, despite their rarity! They are quicker then your regular glyphid, but they have a nasty set of jaws.

Alright time to drop the silliness. Essentially these glyphids act similar to Jockey's from left for dead, where they quickly run in, grab up a dwarf in their jaws and begin to drag him off in a random direction away from his fellows, preferably into the swarm itself. Honestly I love the jump scare potential of some of the grabby type entities in this game, because you could just be minding your own business then "AGH! CAVE LEECH!" This adds another entity that does exactly that!

However, I would like to suggest some mechanic be implemented where you can struggle free from the grip of an enemy like this, maybe by spamming A and D or LMB and RMB?

Can we get a way to have some sort of crash reimbursement if we're in a mission? Like you get 40% of the missions potential totals including crafting mats. Being over an hour into a haz5 game only for the game to just close itself right as you walk up to molly is so fun crushing.

Cosmetic Suggestion:
Additional skin colours!

Lava-Baked: A sunburnt hue, for the dwarf who's either really angry, or has seen one too many missions in the Magma Core. Probably both.
Bug-Caked: The dwarf's default skin colour, but splattered with bug guts!
Dabbling Chemist: Covered in burn marks, with a face caked in soot.
War Paint: A blotchy body camo body-paint, possibly made from more bug gunk.
Rock And Stone: Skin the colour and texture of granite, complete with a few nicks and cracks.
Hayseed: Freckled and sun-kissed, a tough appearance to keep in the mines!
Bad Bet: Clown makeup. The result of a bad wager.
Old Hands: Sallow and wrinkly, with deep pits around the eyes.

Could bet-c's be more common in salvage missions as it would fit with the lore about them and the mission. I think it would give a pretty simple mission an added pinch of difficulty plus help manage the giant swarms you get when doing the fuel cells and triangulation parts.

Woman who plays the game here, I and many others would appreciate at least one lady dwarf. She can be equally as ugly, fat, short, and gross as the other 4 or simply just add a gender swap option like some previous suggestions. I don’t see why this could possibly be an issue, it doesn’t necessarily determine whether I play or not obviously, but it would just be a quality of life thing. The only issue I have with the game is not being able to play someone my own gender : (
I wouldn’t be here typing this if I didn’t like the game a lot and it would make many of the girls who enjoy the game happy

I installed this game last month with PS+ and its hell lotta fun.
I wanna propose few more fun

1.trampoline:

With engineers already got the platform gun, provide a modification to opt for the platform to work as a trampoline.
Adds more fun

consumables only in mission:

Plants in various region will spawn with various consumables that will affect the players.
Like after you eat it you will speak gibberish, sober, frown, speak like a brat 😄
Makes the game fun and i love to listen to more audio cue of affected dwarves.

Would love to see the consumables affecting the stats temporarily but it depends on the dev.

Environmental traps: friendly/hostile

Traps that works on enemies and players too.

Traverse:

Tarzan swing.

Would be nice to traverse from one cave to another by jumping into the sand pit.

Slide down any steep.

why not introduce a river or water in the game. we could wash off the elemental debuff??
to have fun with the water maybe?!?!

5.costume:

This one is HIGH priority!
Need more funny costumes.
Imagine Dwarves in tuxedo 😄

6.Last but not least:

Where are the female dwarves?!?!

A bag cosmetic for all our rocks and stones... In all seriousness, I suggest a series of collectible minerals and an area on the space rig to display them. Basically a vanity item to hunt down and be like "Heh... I got this fancy rock... but look at this super rare stone." Some mementos of missions that we only get on missions we complete. Heck you can even make these stones very unique and only available on special missions!

Think of it sort of like an achievement for collectors! You get a chance at all the stones eventually if you want them, but only the most dedicated of collectors can complete their collection of rocks and stones! And perhaps get some unique themed pickaxe parts, like one that might make the pickaxe look like its made out of rough hewn diamond or some crystalline material that comes in a variety of colors! A show of pride for those dedicated collectors!

You could think of this like Thanos collecting the infinity stones, but instead of five, there might be 50 total, scattered about and having a chance to randomly spawn on missions much like pickaxe parts/cargo crates/etc. Even with dedicated play it should take a few weeks at least to collect all 50 stones from their various missions.

Edit: I had the language filter on. In this case it didn't work due to a creative use of spelling to circumvent it.

Well, I guess I'm posting this here. I'm not sure how to report players for racism, hate speech, stuff that seriously crossed the line and at least in the UK you can be prosecuted for.

DRG is an OVERWHELMINGLY friendly community, and in my hundreds of hours in the game now, I've only encountered really egregious racism twice. One was a player's "server" name with a series of slurs followed by the words "NOT ALLOWED". The other experience was in a Deep Dive yesterday where after we failed the dive, three of us were all "Rock and Stone" and friendly but the player hosting went on a racist tirade. After which the player immediately disconnected us. Well, I went to look for a report button and had to instead spend an hour or so looking for a way to actually submit a report for this game? What I found instead were lots of excuses on reddit forums, other forums, for why it wasn't easily clear on how to report people.

Well, what can I say. Many other multiplayer games have simple reporting options that take like only two in-game menu clicks, even after a match has ended, to report a player you encountered for racism, hate speech, and vile behavior. Here is a reddit thread that someone else posted regarding the same server name I saw with the slurs in it. https://old.reddit.com/r/DeepRockGalactic/comments/rbxaem/reporting_players/

Listen, I've whole-heartedly recommended this game to my friends and family as the most wholesome, friendly, multiplayer community out there. And we all know that the internet/online gaming has its people who act like trolls. But I am actually low-key SUPER DISAPPOINTED that there isn't an easy report function in this game. Even one that DIDN'T work because players "can't be banned," or "it's P2P" or "it's on you to report via STEAM" would at least show an interest in keeping this behavior out of the game.

#

This isn't a good look on whoever made this decision at Ghost Ship. Whatever the reasons, players shouldn't be in charge of handling this amongst themselves. I want to @ one of the dev team members who will actually respond to this, but honestly, I don't even know who to direct this at. This is a GREAT GAME. I'd prefer to see it stay that way as the player base enlarges. Make a simple "report" player option, even if it superficially does nothing, so at least the IMPLICATION is that racist, hateful, vile behavior in game is taken seriously.

The Trophy Room

While we honor the fallen in the Memorial Hall, the Trophy Room is where we celebrate the victories Deep Rock has made during the Hoxxes mission. Some of the baddest beasties and bugs have had their hides and skulls mounted on the walls — signifying one step closer to a subjugated Hoxxes.

Further Information

Something I thought that would be a little fun would be a way to visualize tracked kills. If you didn't already know, the Miner's Manual has a number tracking how many bugs you've stomped over your career. I figure this way, players can The Trophy Room would have models of bugs on pedestals with a plaque displaying how many the host dwarf has killed.

Lining the outer ring would be Glyphid Grunts, Guards, Slashers; Praetorians; Warden; Oppressor; Mactera Spawn, Grabber, Goo Bomber, Tri-Jaw, Menace. Every X killed, the model gets an upgrade. Copper, Silver, Gold, and more.

In the inner ring would be a trophy taken from boss fights. Dreadnaught head, Korlok petals, Caretaker eyes.

One suggestion I'd make is a reset of the kill count if this was done as a way of giving veteran dwarves another thing to work towards.

Hm.. We're already got a mission to kill dreadnought..when looking on bugs,all of them,they are similar to ants.And Dreadnoughts are an Gatekeepers.I think, that we're need a new mission type "Nestkilling".Basically,our Dwarfes lands in deep cave, surrounded by hundreds of eggs.Some will be cosmetic,but some of them will free a grunts/slashers/guards.But this isn't the end..After clearing most of the eggs,an One Glyphid Dreadnought will spawn,simple as it is.But after killing him,Mission Control will say,that way deeper in this cave something is still alive.After descending even deeper,we will meet a new generation for this mission "Nest."
Nest is a new mini-biome,that will be filled with small,not grown enough eggs.At the end of it we'll meet a new boss-Matriarch.It will be a gigantic bug, similar to queen of ants.She's attack with egg-projectiles,that will spawn some small bugs,like swarmers.After 75% hp gap,she will scream,and become invulnerable to damage.In this stage,will be spawned bugs, that will slowly approach Queen,and after that it will be eaten by her,healing her by small amount of hp.If it fails,she began to take damage normally.At 50% she will scream again, but this time she will hit a Nest walls around her, summoning her child's-normal swarm.Of course,she will not attack when invulnerable.After reaching 25% hp, she will summon up to 3 Dreadnoughts.After killing, she will violently explode, leaving a big larvae-next queen.(We need to collect that Larvae to Escape.)And only after that,We will be able to leave from this place.

Perk: Sticky Shoes. When sprinting you can run up walls, variable from 3 sec to 5sec depending on level of perk unlock. Explosions do not force you backwards unless you are in air.

DRG is a looter shooter, and while there's definitely plenty of shooter to go around in the end-game, I'd love to see if the dev team can come up with some innovative ways to interact with the environment for resources that aren't just mission objectives or pressing buttons to mine or collect things.
As an example, one thing I greatly enjoyed in Season 1 was the hacking minigame for patrol bots, particularly trying to frantically complete one in the havoc of a swarm, where cover from a teammate or good positioning is required for a skillful hack.
Some of the best moments I've had in deep rock aside from clutch mission completions have been juggling both aspects of the game, trying to loot the environment and navigate terrain all while fending off the onslaught of bugs (with appropriate break times to recover from the not-so-occasional screwup or mishap), and I'd love to have more ways to do so.

New Mission idea, but one that is more on the level of a deep dive in terms of difficulty. It introduces a new enemy, and its basically a boss slaying mission. Introducing the boss "Glyphid Swarm Queen" A absolutely massive glyphid queen that endlessly produces glyphids to attack the players. It could be a staged mission where you have to do things to weaken the boss before you can actually engage it. The weakening parts basically involving reducing the spawned swarms and making the area less... lethal, so you can actually slay a Glyphid Swarm Queen. Her attacks should cause a lot of terrain damage, like this queen is going to be absolutely massive, cavernous in size. 3-5x the size of a dreadnought.

Think something like the Rachni Queen from Mass Effect in terms of size.

sleek heart Feb 4, 2022, 2:50 AM

#

a spot where you can display "mini toys" like randomly during a mission you could come across a glyphid toy or a molly toy and this should also be very rare to where if you have one it shows you spend a lot of time exploring. maybe not this excatly and probably change it up a little but the main idea is a figurine collection
(adding edit here but the only toys you can see is the host if you are in a multiplayer lobby or if the toys were put into each of the players dorms would work as well)

New Support Items
For each class adding a new support item that could be unlocked at or after 1st Prestige,

Driller - Tunnel Charges able to be placed on a wall that will explode a straight path for you and your team to go through or a mineral scanner that can tell you the direction of the closest mineral (within a certain range and with a mod able to tell you what the mineral is)

Engineer - A new type of turret. (sniper long range at a small angle with high damage but slow to shoot or shotgun with a short range but good for groups of enemies)

Gunner - A portable healing station (similar to how the shield generator works) or a placable (manned) dwarfed turret with a set angle it can aim to. (not 360 degree also must be recalled/picked up similar to Engineers turret)

Scout - A scanner to mark bugs in a radius around the scout or maybe with a mod just in the direction the scout is looking, at a longer range. Scan could go through walls and would either highlight bugs/enemies in an outline or put an arrow marker over the head of them lasting 1.5 seconds or longer with mods. Being marked by an arrow could be the base of what it does and leaves a stationary marker where it scanned the enemies, but with a mod it would highlight them and follow for the duration, at a shorter duration. (Looking similar to when you have your laser pointer out and can see fellow DRG employees and equipment)

This would add to the game by giving players new tools to come up with new strategies on what to take on missions as well as planning it out with your team how to handle each Deep Dive and mission. Will you bring the Flare gun to light up the dark rooms? or will you work with your team to keep it lit up with personal flares and bring a scanner so you can mark hard to see bugs for your fellow employees.

This would benefit the game by encouraging DRG Employees to prestige all the dwarfs upping play time and promoting DRG Employees to come up with new strategies.

A way to view your past (10 or so) missions! Someone is always clicking away the end of mission screen instantly so there's no time to look and take in the abundance of information that's on there. It would be awesome if we could go back and see that final screen again for the latest missions we've done. See who you played with during what mission, look closer at how many creep kills you got or how many times you died, understand more specifically what gave you bonus credits and xp and even just checking out your teams victory pose again.

I feel like this would help people who want to learn to get better too by checking out how they did kills, resses, and deaths wise too. To be able to compare information between missions etc, etc.

New Mission Idea:
This is based off the Ommoran Heartstone mission.

Its basically a “horde mode” or a “survival mode” where the drilldozer just digs in a line and you have to protect it and fuel it like normal, but it doesn’t have a destination. The further you go the more ores, more difficult enemies, higher chances of events. But you can call in the drop pod at any point to collect the minerals and such and get outta dodge.

Obviously this can be unbalanced and overpowered, so it could be like deep dives where you have to have a certain level/prestige level to access, along with lethal-only difficulty. Another way to keep it difficult is to increase the probability that difficulty events like the shieldless missions, volatile guts and the like are applied.

Tier 3 pickaxe modifications:

Power Carve: power attacks knock a larger chunk out of the surface you hit (good for scouts and gunners who mess up zip line placement, also might make crassus cleanup more fun)

Shovel head: slightly increased mining radius (the normal right click equivalent for power carve, the idea is that a small boost in size might make it less likely that you'll have to fix head bump spots in hand dug tunnels)

And finally

Ebonite head: the pickaxe gains some armor piercing.

I don't think these would imbalance things too hard and it would be neat to have more pickaxe perks

One suggestion if I may. When you are charging up the drop pod, or defending the black box etc. Please can the announcer have a much longer pause between telling us all to get back into the green zone before losing signal.

This is on ps4 by the way.
I say this because we were swarmed, had a dreadnought spawn and multiple large enemies all at once which meant we had no choice but to leave the zone and deal with the crazy amount of enemies. Only when doing this, the announcer just spammed "Get back to the zone, we are losing signal" "what are you doing? Get back in there" "get back into the zone"

Needless to say it got very irritating 🤣

I'ld like to refresh this idea after thinking of something Terrorbitter talked about. There is a BC poster in Driller's room. It might be a mistake, but I personally think it wasn't. Driller like dangerous stuff, and his tools are all around shaping the terrain around him. So I thought "wait, what if its that? what if he wants the BC to destroy some stuff?" and that would be very useful! just that one horizontal cut could help clean areas easier to prepare for waves, or for many other types of cave obstacles. So, even if this isn't Driller's weapon, what about an overclock that would destroy terrain? I'ld say it comes with more ammo at the cost of less damage, to keep it more as a tool (like with the compound for the grenade launcher that allows you to rocketjump, but at the cost of less damage + self damage).

My usual crew and I were halfway through the lunar assignment, we logged on last night planning to finish it only to discover the event had ended just earlier that day. Super frustrating, especially given how the game tries so hard to avoid FOMO almost everywhere else.

I would love this OC for the Boltshark X-80 when it comes out, or at least I'm hoping for a similar mod / OC -> Shoot a glyphid with a bolt, after 1 seconds, it will emite a beep / cover the glyphid with a pheromones substance that will attract all nearby enemies, similar to the pheromene grenade, but there's a twist. After the target dies or 3-5 seconds go by, it will explode dealing AOE damage, damaging the nearby glyphids. Or, if you're tired of explosions, one of these things can happen -> it can cover all nearby enemies with a pheromone substance / freeze them / burn them / Electrify them with high damage or something else.

TL;DR: Neuro Lasso leads enemies by the bullet path indicator line instead of slowing

Neuro Lasso currently feels rather unsatisfying, and frankly (and sadly) underwhelming. In order to make it more satisfying, more fun and more enticing to use, I propose this rework:
Instead of slowing enemies, instead Neuro-Lasso will force locked enemies to attempt to face and follow the bullet path indicator. To compensate, reduced number of simultaneous locks, while also keeping the limited Lock time.
This allows for various useful applications such as drawing enemy attention for a short moment to expose weakspots to your allies, to allow eaier weakpoint hits on certain locked enemies with frontal weakpoints (such as grunts), or to stall the approach of enemies by making them take a slightly longer, curved route.
This would make the Overclock feel more Unstable and would better reflect its name. This might turn out very strong in practice, however, so I think additional downsides could need to be implemented, perhaps larger enemies requiring more locks to be affected.

What kind of Gameplay Experience does this idea add to the game?
It adds the experience of being able to directly control enemies to a limited degree, as well as any creative solutions players could use it for.

How does the suggestion /idea contribute to make the game better?
It would make a previously underwhelming Overclock fun and interesting to use, as well as play into the experimental/high-tech feel of the LOK-1.

Here's an idea I had for a driller primary: a tesla cannon that provides both great swarm clearing potential, and decent single target damage as far as driller primaries go.

Firing the weapon causes it to spew electrical arcs. These arcs have weak range, but come out at a very wide angle in front of the driller, are automatically attracted to any bugs in their range, and would of course electrify enemies. That on its own is fine, but what'd really make the gun interesting would be that holding down the fire button sort of makes it ramp up, not unlike Gunner's autocannon. Instead of a steadily increasing fire rate though, the longer you hold the fire button, the greater its range becomes, and the angle that the arcs will come out from will become tighter, eventually becoming more of a concentrated beam that's better for taking out bigger, higher health targets. Mods and overclocks would of course include the typical ammo, rof, mag size buffs, etc, though you could also modify the gun to fill out different roles, either turning it into more of a swarm clearer by increasing the time it takes to ramp up, or a single-target shredder by making it easier to ramp up.

This is my first time pitching a more fleshed out idea in this channel, so I hope I did it justice with my explanation!

Increase of accessibility options: Colour blindness is an issue plaguing a friend of mine, since they can't see green or red very well at all. This can be especially troubling since a lot of the levels are built around having a single terrain type, such as blue ice or red vines etc. This can make finding things like batteries for the resource chests especially difficult since they can walk right over them, or spend ages searching in one area thanks to the audio clue, but just be unable to see it. This can also factor into enemies, for instance they had issues determining a Praetorian from a Oppressor. Filters, alternate textures, simplified graphics, colour-changing for UI elements or such could be a great quality of life for people with similar issues.

Mission Type: Special Delivery / Heist (similar to TF2 "Payload")

Purpose: Rival Corp has huge vaults they use to store gems their prospectors harvest. Instead of stealing data, we'll steal minerals.

Tasks: Locate Rival vault somewhere on the map. Miners will lay tracks from a dropped-in payload cart with a bomb on it, to the vault. They have to protect it from bugs, take out patrol bots that may alert / cause Rival swarm. Miners detonate bomb, locate huge mineral gem (similar size to Ommoran stone?) and put it on the cart to push it back to drop pod for exfil. The cart doesn't move on its own like Doretta, they have to be beside it to help push it along.

Name: Spacerig Frenzy/Steeve infestation

Origin: During one of the terminal screens on the rig it is stated that a dwarf(probably an engineer) brought high ordinance into the cafeteria. What if that wasn’t wholly unwarranted?

Suggestion: As the title suggested, this mission takes place on the spacerig. Glyphids have taken refuge on the spacerig and nested in the kitchens. You are currently (mostly) unarmed as per company standards and have to fight your way to your main weapons (Your traversal and utility tools are available) and activate pivotal defenses along the way (as they are offline due to how powerful and completely hazardous to dwarves they are even for company standards) and eliminate the infestation. Gotta save management~

Rewards are mostly EXP and a Company bonus of credits for avoiding a complete disaster.

Reason: I just wanted to throw an idea out there to expand the place we see so often. The spacerig we know is the abyss bar, memorial hall, and the launch bay. I want to see a little more. From the organic randomness of generation of caves to the cold, cramped, industrial, and/or dangerous halls of the spacerig as you clear pre-generated infestation.

Reason 2: I just want to see a Steeve scuttle around in the smoky unreachable areas of the launch bay or have a Steeve to pet on the spacerig. ❤️

Reason 3: May be used as a tutorial for movement and traversal tools for all classes.

Reason 4: might be a way to implement a small time trial type mission as you race to clear the infestation as fast as possible.

Suggestion:

Put a pettable lootbug hidden somewhere on the Space Rig.
Put it in a blanket-nest, with water and food bowls next to the nest (the food bowl could have a couple chunks of Nitra in it).

Lore-wise, Dwarves are smuggling them onboard now thanks to the Lootbug Lover victory move.
It makes sense one of the Dwarves would try to keep it as a pet, even against management's wishes.

+edit+
Maybe it could occasionally play the "just pet a lootbug" adorable sounds every once in a while, and have a floating animation when you hit the gravity switch. 😇

Once a player enters the drop pod, the mission should be marked as complete even if that player then leaves to rescue another dwarf and goes down. Currently, if a dwarf goes down during extraction, at least one player ends up having to sit in the drop pod to guarantee that the mission succeeds while the rest of the team goes on a daring last-minute rescue mission without them. With this change, players would be incentivized to go out and rescue their teammates, without having to risk the entire mission's success. Management cares more about the goods, after all, and a bit of union negotiations should convince them to transfer mission rewards to next of kin if the goods are recovered but none of the dwarves make it out.

Suggestion: No c4 Team Griefing.

Make the Driller C4 not kill your teammates instantly but leave them at 1hp.
This way you would still punish the driller for exploding their mates in a swarm (as 1hp is really not much) but it would maybe help in preventing griefing. Drillers exploding Teammates on the ramp of the drop pod and then leaving without you happens more than it should.
The 1hp should only apply to teammates, not the Driller himself.

Suggestion: Change map of Hoxxie for choosing mission.

Apparently, Hoxxie is a big asteroid and locations of missions aren't actually like it shows on the map. Each biome located on different sides of spherical asteroid so shouldn't it be shown like that. It could be a spinnable sphere where player chooses a biom and then specific mission.
Considering that someone could be uncomfortable with that kind of map, there also could be an option: default map or simplified (current one) map.

Hold [Pickaxe binding] and [Fire binding] to activate. Has a 5 minute cool down, every upgrade of the four decreases it by a minute.

Pulls all loose minerals on the ground to your position within a 3m radius.

Look, we know what you’re doing with those Pot of Gold drinks. We at management do not condone this, as it’s causing minor amounts of inflation. However it isn’t able to be traced back to us, so we are giving you a Perk that could be used to bring loose Morkite, and definitely only Morkite, to you from hard to reach places.

It would also be super convenient to be able to deposit on the drilldozer itself in escort missions, but I can understand why that might not make sense, given that it gets destroyed at the end of the mission

Suggestion: April Fools Anomalies & Mutations

Anomaly: Drunk-o-Vision
For the entire duration of the mission, your dwarf is intoxicated by a strange gas in the region and almost sees double, making it harder to focus.

Anomaly: "Lucky" Shots
Every shot has a 10% chance to deal a "critical hit" which is actually a 1/10 chance to deal double damage with the other nine times on average being a crude effect, such as making your targets fart or causing an explosion of confetti.

Mutation: Grabber Hell (+10% Hazard Bonus)
Every Mactera that would spawn in the mission are replaced by Grabbers, and it stacks on top of a Mactera Plague mutation.

Mutation: Detonator Day (D-Day reference) (+35% Hazard Bonus)
Glyphid Bulk Detonator spawns and the chances of one being a Crassus are now 10x more likely, and one is guaranteed to spawn every 10 minutes.

Mutation: Nuclear Loot Bugs (+15% Hazard Bonus)
All Loot Bugs that are killed create a Fat Boy explosion upon bursting, turning the caves into chaotic warzones. It'll make you think twice about bringing "It's A Bug Thing", as well as haphazardly shooting them.

Leadstorm balanced/unstable overclock: Concussive ammo belts

+: Stun chance and time greatly increased (40-50% base chance, 2s-2.5s base time)
+: Damage to stunned targets increased by 30%
-: Base damage decreased by 2

or +: Rate of fire increased by 10 (you waste ammo faster in the end)

Upsides:
-When enemy cant be stunned, your rate of fire helps massively instead by providing you more dps at the cost of faster waste of ammo
-Much faster stabilization due to rate of fire
-Brt7 stun can work with this minigun oc
-Driller's dubata oc for stun or c4 stun can give gunners massive dmg boost with that aswell as other stuning options
-You deal with swarms better in a different way than other overclocks offer
-You can stunlock certain enemies with much more ease
Downsides:
-Less damage per shot with no stun or when enemy gets out of stun for a moment
-Faster waste of ammo
-Less total damage
-Faster overheat

Driller Primary: The Fumigator

Sprays lingering clouds of neurotoxin. Acts as a cross between the sludge pump and flamethrower. Intended to provide aerial area denial and damage over time using lingering toxin clouds.

Bugs will avoid neurotoxin similar to platform bug repellant. Alternative crowd control weapon for either killing bugs or funneling them.

Possible effects: Slow, DoT persisting after leaving cloud, Fear, Weakened Attacks. Flammable gas?

Overclock/Mod concepts:
Pheromone Spray. Expend a good chunk of ammo to coat a bug in pheromones to act almost identically to the pheromone canisters.
Radium Gas. Does radiation damage to bugs.
Super Repellant. Most bugs will never willingly enter the gas/have a high chance of being Feared if in a cloud.

Issues with idea: Encroaches somewhat on the niche of the sludge pump and may be redundant if more unique properties can't be added to this weapon.

I like how there's a lot of attention to little details in the game, so I think it would be cool if when you order a resupply pod, a little backpack drone with the required nitra comes out of molly (or out of the refinery/minehead) and flies away towards the big hole dug from the drop pod, or maybe it could fly in that general direction and just disappear after some time after it goes out of everyones' field of vision

So it's not a truly unique suggestion (especially because of all the underwater biomes we had in here) but anyway : new cosmetics armors and helmets inspired by "antique" diving suits like this one (thank you wikipedia https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5f/Gradbišče_hidroelektrarne_Ožbalt_1958%2C_potapljač.jpg
Imo it fits the game pretty well because diving deep into dark water etc. The armor itself should definitely armor more little details, to decorate the vast and empty waterproof leather area. Of course the most interesting part would be the helmet because it comes in many many shapes (think about Bioshock) or even smoke helmet (yeah it's totally another thing but hey space is a smelly place).

Hi guys, thanks for the amazing game that DRG is, i just had an idea about a random event that can happen on missions, i share it with u. I call it the double 10% check, because i think 10% chance of get this per mission is OK. So u got a 10% of spawn a summoning altar in each mission, and u decide if interact or not with it. If u do, u got a 90% to summon a bulkwark detonator, but a 10% to summon a crasus detonator. I hope u guys like my idea, thanks for listening

Extra throwable ideas for each class:

Throwing Knives (Scout): Similar to Impact Axe except without area damage. Damage is moderate and hitbox is small but they have a 3.0x weakpoint damage bonus meaning a well placed one can finish off a Praetorian, Warden, etc.

Targeting Beacon (Engineer): Sticks to enemies it's thrown onto. The Engineer's sentries will prioritize that enemy with a 50% damage boost. in case no sentries are built, The tagged enemy will also receive 30% more damage from dwarves. Missed beacons can be picked up by the Engineer

Noisemaker (Driller): Emits a high-frequency sound that irritates glyphids and hinders their echolocation. For about 5 seconds, enemies will flee from the Noisemaker until they're outside a 5 meter radius.

Stun Grenade (Gunner): The one I'm least confident in because I can't think of much else. Simply put, It applies stun to enemies in a small radius, the stun will last a bit longer than other sources allowing time to capitalize on a large group. Would also deal a small amount of damage to work as a swarmer/naedocyte repellant.

Just as this suggestion says, a vertical zipline. Probably as a tier 3 upgrade, or if there will ever be tool oc, as an oc. It would basically have the zipline on the y axis instead of the x axis, allowing more easy vertical mobility. You will only be able to go fast downward, and maybe to add some extra danger, if you're going too fast you will take fall damage upon reaching the end of it.

Unstable Crossbow Overclock: Targeting Uplink
"These high tech bolts link to your teams targeting systems to provide additional firing solutions against whatever bug you stick them to."
rocknstone Bolts stick to enemies.
Stuck enemies are visible to all dwarves through walls.
Stuck enemies take significantly increased damage from all sources.
tothebone Significantly reduced damage.
Significantly reduced ammo capacity.
Significantly increased reload time.

The purpose behind this OC would be to enhance a role which every scout should take seriously; Identifying priority targets, and softening them so the team can deal with them quickly.
Combined with IFG grenades and Bullets of Mercy Deepcore, this would allow scouts to pick a target and ensure their rapid demise. In exchange for this utility, the scout gives up significant damage/mobility options, leaving them with only a primary weapon for self defense.
I also think it would be neat if highlighted targets gain a huge lock on speed boost when using the LOK-1 as Engineer. The two tools combined would offer scary amounts of single target DPS, and would help make the synergy between Scout/Engi more of a two way street. It wouldn't be necessary to the core function of the OC as whole, however.

Increase crate spawn rate. While theoretically they're equal chances to the helmet, they have significantly more rewards, and in practice in my own experience, they are far from equal. With equal spawn chances, one shouldn't be getting 3 helmets a week in only 10 missions a week, while not getting a single crate in a month. I'm level 155, I got every helmet reward back somewhere at 70-80, yet despite getting the game before launch, I haven't even chipped through half the crates rewards.

Special Mission Suggestion: Vacation Time!
Once a year (Preferably the anniversary of DRG) a special mission opens up. It's not a combat or regular mission. It is a vacation mission. At this mission location there are unique shops which feature special items, beers, and other goods as a celebration. This can only be unlocked after doing the anniversary event at the terminal. Think of it as a way of saying thanks and giving us a chance to celebrate!

Elaboration on @silent escarp Concept.

Special Destination unlock, found through completion of a 4-6 step mission similar to promotion.

The destination is named “MidasFall”, and for it you’re instructed to dive into the home of our favourite monster of the underground, a Crassus Detonator.

At first it seems like a great time! All the gold you could want? This seems a bit broken! Well my friend, not quite. This is their home after all.

Keep in mind that, while the result of killing one is lovely, it’s still very dangerous.

For the mission, you are given a special Pickaxe, that can slowly absorb gold veins from craters, to not make it to much of a grind to get through.

Now, here’s the idea, spawn way to many. So many that just sitting and killing them all will never work. Instead you have to play ring around the Rosy with 30 nuclear bombs while taking cheeky slaps at the gold from their fallen comrades. After a 2 minute timer, You are able to call the drop pod whenever you like, however if you die. You loose it all, unlike all other missions.

This could also feature some similar missions of different ores, and maybe even one where you have to inject a nest with some kind of Morkite juice to try and create Morkite Detonators.

It would be pretty self balanced, players would have to gamble how much they want to keep and then walk away, or push forward and hope to not blow up.

Oh also, limited revives, sorry scouts.

Suggestion for a new Engineer secondary: Microwave Gun

The Microwave Gun is a large, single beam, that when aimed at a target, will rapidly heat it up, dealing massive fire damage and moderate DoT. Due to the rapid and extreme buildup of heat, the Microwave Gun can cause smaller targets (grunts and below) to explode upon death, dealing mild explosive damage in a small radius around them. To larger targets, the buildup of fire damage results in respectable DoT.

Due to the Microwave Gun being heat-based instead of projectile-based, it would completely ignore most heavy armor (guards, praetorians, brundles, etc.), dealing full damage regardless of where you shoot your target.

Additionally, the weapon builds heat over time, and needs to go through a lengthy heat sync process in order to disperse heat. Failure to disperse the weapon's heat can result in a detonation, which would most likely kill the user.

However, purposefully overheating the Microwave Gun may be useful in niche circumstances, in order to take down a large group of enemies with no other options available.

I’ve always wondered what’s happened to the dwarfs that fell before we got there.

Perhaps a collection of data logs, that can be pieced together to find closure on what happened to these dwarves, and perhaps it even offers an instruction that makes a marker on your map.

ectoglyph dreadnought: a dreadnought purple in appearance that seems to be wearing the armor of various deceased bugs, notably, there are various bug heads covering its vunerable backside, which glows purple when exposed.

the ectoglpyh has multiple different attacks it can use

call the horde: summons various enemies to fight the player. will only use if there are not many bugs currently spawned

call the fallen: bring all recently killed bugs back to life as 'zombies' where their colors become more grayish and they do increased damage, but move slower and have less health with armor chunks already missing. will only use if there are a large amount of dead bugs

haunted howl: aoe roar effect centered on the dreadnought with low range. incites fear in the players for a few seconds. while afraid, players move drastically slower when moving towards the ectoglyph (any other direction unaffected)

bile breath: an aoe cone that originates from the mouth and has low-medium range, that does decent damage and prevents the players shields from regenerating for a few seconds if they are fully depleted from the attack

bemoaned beheadings: shoots off the skulls on it's weakspot, seeking out and dealing damage to the player like missiles, while exposing its weakspot for a few seconds before regenerating. this attack automatically activates each time the ectoglyph's armor is fully removed, with the armor regenerating a few seconds after removed, or the ectoglyph takes 20% of it's max hp as damage, whichever comes first

New throwing axe alternative - Sonic pickaxe ⛏️ - a specialized pickaxe that you carry in separate pocket as driller/engineer from your beloved and trusty melee. It works in the same manner as throwable axe - you throw it into someone's face or a wall. The only differencies:

You got only 1 Sonic pickaxe. You can restock it or gather it back. Better not forget it or leave it without a resupply!
Instead of being wasted after being throwed at bug, it still will be able to be picked up unlike axe.
If it hits a deposit/enemy, it will release sound waves, 1 per 3 seconds indefinitely as long as it's stuck - an purple pulses that slowly damage deposits and deal small damage, strip armor plates from bugs.
Deposits on the other hand will slowly be softened to dust, requiring pickaxe to deal 7-12 sound blasts before it will collapse into chunks. Or you can just then finish deposit with default pickaxe, requiring only 1 hit per chunk.
It has it's own limit of slowly recharging it's power for another use in 2 minutes. You can throw it anyways, but only dealing minor damage and without sound blast effect.

So what's the stuff? A ranged, self-recharging tool/weapon, capable to help mine some deposits out of reach without scout aid, but with a cooldown. Or you know, stick it into dreadnought's rears to give yourself some passive armor-stripping and small constant damage output. Low damage per throw, but it's slowly ticking as long as it's stuck. Technically you can finish mission with only 2 picks!

Biome Elemental Bulk Detonators, similar to Crassus'. Where, where they walk, and when they explode, they cover the area they touch with their respective biomes hazard-ish material. But they can show up in any zone.
Frost will turn where they walk and their explosion carve into a thin layer of slippery ice, the extra bombs will drop piles of snow. A freezing explosion would be .5 times larger than the carve area, so if you get caught in it, you would get frozen instantly and might get hit by secondary bombs.
Radiation will leave a short lasting radiation trail, as well as continually emit a sizable radiation zone around it. Explosion will leave a large, slightly longer lasting radiation zone similar to the Engineers grenade launcher nuke OC.
Toxic will constantly emit a sizable toxic gas around it, will leave a trail of temporary sludge, similar to goo bomber sludge. Explosion carve will leave permanent sludge akin to toxic biome, and secondary bombs will leave a moderately lasting gas cloud.
Magma will leave a short lived trail of fire where it walks, will cause heat damage around it, and might even light players on fire if they stay near it too long. Explosion carve and secondary bombs will leave molten rocks terrain hazard.

What if, in the future, beetle fauna grows huge tentacles and grabs the station onto the surface of Hoxess? (well, either the same competitors will appear openly and, let's say, damage the station so much that the management decides to land on the planet) To develop a further action plan for repairing the station and launching into orbit, just those cubes with intelligence will be used and, for example, competitor materials. And some of these reptiles will periodically attack (defense mission) and disable the station modules, if the defense fails (first of all, the modules will need to be repaired with the collected materials, and then it will be possible to use them (maybe stuffy, I don’t know) ). //I am Russian.

Prob already suggested from someone in some way but i put here my idea of DD and EDD addition: Greybeard Deep Dive :

Instead of 3 levels mashed together maybe its 1 big level (4-10 times as usual ones) (loading times aside if only some of the map is processed at a time then it should be fine for the CPU and ram) to prevent too much loaded at a time.

If you go too far from the objective UNTIL its done you die and get teleported downed to your closest m8 or the objective) also the further you go the stronger and more enemies will spawn until the point where glypid guards get replaced by pretorians and pretorians for opressors and instead of grunts guards and slasher and so on (1 tier stronger than before) dreads excluded for obvious reasons so no opressor to dread conversion BUT there is a chance on the last area that swarms get replaced by a dreadnought pack of 3 random dreads (max 6 twins).

Also the last mission is a modified salvage mission where you have to collect Droppod parts and repair the Droppod before you can finish the mission.

If you fail in beteween you can either collect the rewards of all previous objectives or risk everything to respawn at the entrance of that area with all current active bugs killed and full ammo and full HP ONCE (nitra and gold stay the same) if you fail then again everything is lost but if you make it out alive you will prob swim in gold and resouces. (it should be aviable by an assingment where you have to do 5 sucessfull EDD first (NO other requirements of level or promotion)

and 2 OC ideas for the crossbow:

Shotgun Arrow: R&D got their Hands on Your Crossbow. How can these Eggheads never run out of ideas. Well as long as it shreds these buggers you dont care about that.

The arrrows spread like a shotgun and the tips also explode on impact for an 0.5m AOE per arrow part.
But you cant recollect arrows and your ammo is now pretty limited but it packs quite a punch so keep it away from your fellow miners.

+10 Small arrows
+20 impact damage per arrow part
+0.5m AOE
+5 Aoe damage per arrow explosion

-50% Fire Rate
-25% Arrow ammo

Ability to collect arrows

Second idea: Acid Spitter Poison Tipped Arrows: Keep them away from you at all cost or you and your companions can kick your carreers in a barrel. The Acid spitters toxin is already devastation on skin but this synthetic one from R&D is a nightmare for anything that is considered "Alive".

+Super Toxin: 20 damage per tick every 0.2 seconds for 10 seconds (damage stacks but timers are seperate from each other if reapplied)
-50% Ammo

Only 50% of arrows can be reused again.
-arrows travel 25% slower

Ivaldi’s Last Stand

Primary Perk (Le blue)

After three teammates have fallen, press and hold [Cheer Binding] to activate ** Last Stand**

Last Stand Removes the users need to reload, all guns automatically feeding themselves in rapid time, shield is buffed by 200%. After using, the dwarf can no longer revive teammates, and the effect will automatically remove itself if another dwarf is brought back to life through other means.

He stood before the hoard, the only one left. A cursed M.U.L.E still at a snails pace to the drop pod, as the Dwarf planted his feet on the ramp. Fallen brothers laid, too far for help. He screamed, and the earth screamed with him.

new horrific Glyphid enemy type idea. It can't be pinged by the pointer or tracked by any sentry gun, it tries to sneak up and do deadly slash attacks, and it carries an increasing number of corpses of dead dwarves on its back. a rare encounter, but the corpse count increases for every mission failure of that specific mission name within the entire game until the mission timer refreshes, resetting the corpse count.

brewer's bane: also known as "Anlger weed", this dastardly little plant has a tongue that identically resembles brewing materials, and when attempted to be collected, will open its many toothed circular mouth (think of a cookie cutter shark but with multiple layers of teeth), and pull the player towards its maw with long grabber tongues. while attempting to swallow the player, the player has a chance to shoot the inside of its mouth, which is it's weakspot. if a grenade is throw into its mouth, it gets momentarily stunned and takes more damage from the grenade. heightened senses will kill the brewer's bane. upon death, the brewers bane drops 1-2 of the material it was imitating, and 1-2 materials of one of the other two brewing materials. the brewer's bane can be spotted by the occasional grumbling noises heard around its imitator tounge, and occasional dust particles from it shifting around.

Cave Modifier suggestion: Flooded Caverns
Function: Certain chambers are marked as flooded, filling them with water. Any points exposed to a flooded cavern and not blocked by a ceiling are likewise flooded. While in water, players and enemies are slowed and subjected to the modifier effects of Low Oxygen and Low Gravity. Both effects are removed on reaching the water's surface, but oxygen takes time to recharge as normal. Missions with Flooded Caverns would have oxygen supplies in similar locations as the Low Oxygen mutator.

Special Area Interactions: Water in the Glacial Strata decreases all entity's body temperature and is usually topped with smooth ice - this is negated within an oasis's area of effect, which heats the player as normal. Water in the Magma Core is superheated and will slowly damage dwarves that remain submerged, but the water's buoyancy is increased - dwarves can jump higher at greater speeds while underwater in the Magma Core.

Entity Interactions: Fire attacks (CRSPR Flamethrower, incendiary grenades, etc) do not heat targets that are submerged but can damage as normal with direct damage (lingering flames are immediately extinguished). Water extinguishes entities that are burning, but will inflict temperature shock if performed in the Glacial Strata. Entities submerged in water have reduced resistance to Electrocuted, acquiring the status ailment faster and suffering stronger damage and slowdown. Explosive attacks and enemies have their AoE halved on detonation.

Gameplay Experience: To me, this seems more of an anomaly than a warning, as certain map generation can be easier when under the effects of low gravity (looking at you, Dense Biozone). It's fun to imagine the dwarves struggling against the water, or entering a new cavern only to have part of their passageway flooded.

The Incredible Beast of the Underground

Hold the [Pet binding] while looking at a lootbug to charge it with the strength of the dwarves, filling it with incredible energy.

While charged, a lootbug moves twice as fast, follows the owner, and gives ominous stares at enemies, occasionally dropping gold or nitra.

Uh- I mean- ok? Here you go? I don’t know what you’re expecting from this, it’s literally a blob.

Sorry for discussing an old topic again, but even though I agree the Industrial Facemask shouldn't be in headwear slot. I believe it's better if it's moved not to the beard slot, but the mustache slot. I believe the Facemask will look better if you can still wear the Neck Guard with it, which also takes up the beard slot. And since the Industrial Facemask covers both the beard and mustache, I think that's a good way to allow both the facemask and neck guard still be wearable together. but also allow for certain hats and helmets to be worn with the Facemask.

Entity suggestion: Morkimic
The Morkimic only appears on maps with high Hazard levels where Morkite is an objective. The Morkimic slowly moves when not observed by any dwarf, dealing standard attack damage if they get within melee range (comparable to a Slasher Grunt). They are at their most devious when observed; they press against the nearest surface and appear as a vein of Morkite, even to the laser scanner. A dwarf that does not identify the Morkimic's tell (a lack of shimmer could be an example) and attack it with a pickaxe is grabbed by the Morkimic, who starts attacking the hapless dwarf until he drops, similar to a Cave Leech. It is vulnerable to attack from all sides, and will be stunned if attacked during its mimic state.

crossbow overclock: Grapple point

With the great success of our special powder overclock and grapple hook, RnD have been inspires to give the crossbow mobility! Through modifications to your grappling hook and special crossbow bolts, you can grapple to your crossbow bolts to swing around like glyphid-dwarf!

rocknstone shooting your grapple hook near an embedded grapple-point crossbow bolt allows you to swing! (I know you had an experimental grapplehook that would swing instead of draw you to the point in a straight line, and it looked fun)
grappling to crossbow bolts ignores cooldown or massively reduces grapple cooldown (so you can chain swings across big caves with practice)

Yellow/Red Plasma Cutter overclock - Cut off their limbs

"So after prolonged research our team has found that bugs (and dwarves too) are completely harmless if you amputate their parts. For this, we have tuned cutter for surgery operations. Do not cut sandwiches with it."

Plasma ark is now capable to cut off unprotected by armour limbs. Cutting 3 limbs instantly kill weak targets. Each lost limb decreases speed by 25% and damage by 15%.
It is now blue and shiny!

Plasma ark is 75% smaller. Precise shots advised.

Making specialized crowd control weapon into specialized marksman sidearm, requiring precise shots to incapacitate/weaken strong enemies or groups. - what could go wrong?
Some bugs are immune to limb cutting: Dreadnoughts, Rollin' balls, BET-C, Rival company bots.
Some bugs have unique moments when you cut their limbs off: Macteras losing their wing will fly uncontrollable and fall to death, Grabber unable to grab without limbs, Opressor regenerates it's limbs after some time.

SUGGESTION: An X-Men Cyclops color for the Scout
My reason for this is because that while the Driller has a color literally based on/named after Colossus from the X-Men, Scout doesn't have a blue/yellow one based on Cyclops to fit his cosmetics too. I think doing one for him would make sense since if you're going for one to fit the Driller, the same should be done for the Scout since he already has blue in his class color palette, since the only thing you can do is use the supporter colors to somewhat replicate the look.

Please prioritize fixing this newer bug: Sticky Flames now ignite and kill Steves 100% of the time.

(I just reported this on Jira, but I'm putting this here because this yet-unmentioned bug is severely disruptive, and I want both players and devs to know what's going on.)

At some point after Season 1, the CRISPR's sticky flames (not the direct stream) have begun to consistently kill every friendly Steve that contacts them. This interaction has 3 distinct bugged elements:

Sticky flames heat up Steves at the same rate as enemies. (Tamed grunts are supposed gain extra temperature resistance.)
Steves, once ignited, recieve 100% burn damage. (ALL friendly fire is supposed to have near total reduction on Steves.)
Once ignited, Steves burn permanently until they die. (Demonstrated by tamed grunt guards always burning to death from full HP, while hostile guards always outlive burn duration on Hazard 5 4 players.)

This bug is 100% consistent, and constantly triggers by accident whenever any team's Driller uses the CRISPR. It really ruins Beastmaster for everyone when using the flamethrower causes most Steves to burn to death in less than a minute after taming. Please, for the sake of our communal love of Steve, fast-track fixing this one!

I know water and biomes with water have been suggested loads, and the devs say water is too hard, so this might be instantly to the boned because of it.

PART 1

BUT this is a physics free water system that would not delete performance and not require water simulation from destructable terrain. So I welcome you all to...

Biome suggestion The Underground Oasis!
(name probably needs changing)

'If you ignore the fact this is where mactera lay there eggs, the fact this place is on hoxxes, the fact just like every other place on hoxxes it is filled with things that want to kill you, the fact it is many kilometers below the surface, and the fact that dwarves swim like rocks even without armor, then this thin layer of Hoxxes' crust would be an amazing vacation spot! Squashed under the permafrost layer of Glacial Strata and heated from below by the roaring fires of magma core, this underground oasis is filled with unique wildlife and steaming warm waters. Steaming warm waters that can sometimes hide some very nasty suprises.'

CAVEGEN:

The underground Oasis has much of the tropical cave completely underwater, and is made up of two different rock types. There is a 'sea level' which is where the water is, and everything below that point is under water. Even holes that you dig. There is no physics, and you cannot dig a hole in the ceiling for an air bubble unless said hole goes above sea level again. Caves are generated very horizontally with big arching pillars holding up the ceiling, which is made up of 2 hit terrain. However! Just above water level, there is a 'sand level' which is where the terrain changes from being made up of two hit rock and instead is made up of one-hit sand.

(part 2 will contain the water mechanics just hold on before bombing because water please)

primal vale Feb 9, 2022, 8:24 AM

#

PART 2 of The Underground Oasis

THE DREADED MECHANIC: WATER

The water will work really simply. It's a sea level, and everything below that sea level is underwater. there is no flowing or complex physics. It's just 'below this altitude, apply the underwater tint and fog, slow dwarf and bug movement, increase drag, reduce gravity, reduce fall damage, and activate the low oxygen meter that's already in the game from the mission mutator. Dwarves cannot swim, but they can jump! Also, to avoid the water being just 'movement but obnoxiously slow and floaty' there will be loads of alternative movement options under the water in the form of flora and fauna that toss dwarves around. In a cave with large parts of it being underwater, getting thrown around won't kill you with fall damage if you aim somewhat decently! Also when it comes to bug behaviors
-shellbacks could roll across the water surface like speedboats. This would be terrifying
-Mactera could hover above the surface like dragonflies
-fester fleas could sit on the water like water skimmers
-the glyphids here are amphibious, so they just walk

HAZARDS

Beyond the possibility to drown, there are a few natural hazards in the Underground Oasis. The first and most prominent one being venus flytrap-like lilypads that snap shut and chew on you for a bit if you stand on them for too long. The other is underwater geysers that fling dwarves similar to the wind-tunnels in sandblasted corridoors. However with fall damage reducing water, clever use of this would help dwarves cross the oceans. The sucking plant that has been stuck in the game-files could also be here, with the added use of after being sucked up by it, it'd try to chew you for a bit before then deciding dwarves taste disgusting, and spitting you out violently like a cannonball in the direction you are aiming. Another hazard and mobility option which would allow the water to not be just 'ew normal movement but slow'

(part 3 is coming)

PART 3 of The Underground Oasis

WILDLIFE

There is plenty of unique wildlife in the undergroun oasis, many of which can be used to the dwarve's benefit to avoid drowning and traverse the water quickly. There are lilypads that don't try to eat you after you stand on them, along with a strain of glowing Naedocyte cave cruisers called 'floaters' which the dwarves can stand on and might look sort of like floating lanterns. I'm going to just give a list as it's easoer

-unnamed glowy coconut tree
Keeps up the tradition of kickable objects in the new biomes with pinecones and combas in azure weald and hollow bough, this small palm-tree like thing has glowy coconuts in it that get knocked down if you break the tree!

-River Vine
Some might assume by the name of this plant that it is a boring old Vine that grows next to rivers, and you'd be wrong! This vine actually contains a small river, and can be used as a water slide! (acts like a one-way grindable pipe. The stream inside is just cosmetic and could just be a moving texture so no water physics. Having cosmetic waterfalls at the ends of these would be cool though)

-FORG
harmless fatass frog thing that will jump onto nearby entities and sit on them. This includes other forgs, and the heads of dwarves. and forgs on forgs. and forgs on forgs on forgs. Possibly could be picked up and thrown like a heavy object for fun. FORG TOWER

-Naedocyte Floater
Harmless version of the naedocyte cave cruiser that floats in the air like a floating lantern and will come down to the water level to 'drink'. For the hell of it, these could be kickable by dwarves

-Unnamed Sucky plant
Sucks up dwarves that get real close and then spits them out like a cannon. This is already in the game files with a model and everything!

-The elevator plants from dense biozone

-Todarodes Cave Angel
A squid-like version of the cave angel that the dwarves can grab onto and pilot, but it for underwater!

PART 4 of The Underground Oasis

(Included my crude drawing of watergen here because I forgot to include it earlier)

more wildlife

-Oasis Lotus
Floating flower that uses Mactera to pollinate.

-Airweed
Seaweed-like plant that hangs from the ceiling, Possibly glows

-various ferns to decorate the ground with

-Peeper
Lil' noodly boi that looks at you. Like a garden Eel!

-Naedocyte Boid
Small schools of harmless tiny glowing Naedocytes that float around like boids. Someone suggested boids and I feel naedocytes don't have many varients

-Bubble Flower
Spawns in deeper sections of water, emits bubbles that refill your o2! Relatively common to prevent annoying drowning problems. All the movement plants underwater should be very common actually. wouldn't spawn on low oxygen missions. Could also be like an aquatic version of the breather?

-Bough Root
The roots of the hollow bough tree get water from here, and they form giant archways that could be used by dwarves as bridges or paths to avoid water.

ENEMIES
What, did you think the water was completely safe? On HOXXES!?

-Deep Leech
Oh god what have I done. These things would grab your ankles and drag you DOWN!

-Mactera Larvae
Someone suggested Mactera could lay their eggs here like mosquitoes. The larvae would be like shredder drones but far weaker. Possibly there could also be an underwater brood nexus that spawns these?

-Mactera Skimmer
A Water skimmer enemy that grabs you and speeds away! If having an enemy limited to a single altitude is too limiting this could be a passive enemy the dwarves could use as a jet-skii

Okay so I know not all the plants we loot be fruits, but I think it would be kinda cool to have little fruitbugs waddling around that would grant us the resources to make our good dwarven stouts! All you have to do is murder an adorable and innocent little fruitbug... eugh... the moral dilemma!

Here's an idea maybe. What if we brought certain events to where it'd be challenging enough to incorporate a new total of 8 dwarfs but only during the events... For example a tough hazard 1 - 5 cave with certain tasks you had to do that would then lead up to a sci-fi boss that dropped certain resources or a specific type of new armor and helmet specific to all dwarfs. And the events could be a seasonal once every couple months type of deal. Might even bring more players to play DRG. The boss could be somewhat related or themed as one of the creatures we've had to encounter while playing but different looks and abilities of course.

And another one(idk, probably that was already written, idk): add special slot for cosmetic — misc:
We already have some hats what looks not so good, or won't fit on "head" slot, for example: "Evil Eye" — its good accessory, but not as hat. And we already have "Neck guard" on "Beard" slot, but it could be added like "misc" or "accessory".
So, i guess that will be nice move to add another 1 cosmetic slot.

You receive intercept a signal from Hoxxes IV and you discover a group of dwarfs stranded and in need of immediate assistance. So you and your squad get sent out there to help them.

You go through the casual enemies till you find it… a drop pod and you cannot open it so you need to order a laser from management to open it, so you call one in and you need to wait 3~ minutes for the laser to open it.”, Just reveal 4 Lootbugs but they have eaten valuable intel so you need to extract them to retrieve this valuable intel.

And in a rare occurrence you can find deactivated mule that you can pry open to find the abandoned minerals that previous squad had gotten for themselves.

Mission Name: Drop Pod Extraction

Setup: Miners, you need to go recover a drop pod we lost contact with. Something happened. We don't know what. You need to get to the bottom of this ASAP

[Mandatory Section]
Could be:

The Drop pod was hacked/disabled to fix <hacking pod thing> a nearby pylon to "release" the drop pod
or
The Drop pod was beached/toppled by an something. To fix: call in then carry explosives to pre-marked points to blast obstructions away. Then right the drop-pod somehow.
or
The drop pod is being assaulted by enemy robots, attack their controller boss thing, and free drop pod.

[Optional section]
There can be another optional element tied to the previous section. Like
If X from previous

Harvest core from pylon for study and extract with it (summons robots during restart drop pod process)
Harvest a sample of what was able to stop drop pod (maybe call in a special laser mining pod or something)
Deploy a hacking pod to the dead body of the boss thing. Upload a virus to the network IDK. Something

Flow be like:
DEPLOY & LOCATE DROP POD > MANDATORY SECTION > OPTIONAL SECTION > REPAIR & RESTART DROP POD > LEAVE

Suggestion: Perk Ideas

Passive - Fear-omones (or Fear Pheromones)
A Perk Causes enemies that melee attack you to run away, inflicting the Fear debuff for 1 second (base value). Later upgrades give bonus effects.
Tier I: Enemies are inflicted with fear for 1 second upon melee attacking you.
Tier II: Fear lasts for 1.5 seconds.
Tier III: Fear lasts 2 seconds; 20% chance an AoE Fear effect occurs with a radius of 1.5 meters upon an enemy melee striking you.
Tier IV: Fear lasts 2 seconds; 25% chance for AoE effect; Power Smash attacks inflict Fear if they don't inflict Stun.

Passive - Matrix Shield
A Perk that allows the Energy Shield to absorb any attack once only at full charge, even if it would be lethal to a Dwarf, without dealing any damage to their health. Upgrades increase Shield capabilities and health.
Tier I: You take one free hit if an attack would instantly break your Shield from full charge.
Tier II: Same benefit; Shield health increased by 20%.
Tier III: Same benefits; Shield regenerates 10% faster when not in combat.
Tier IV: Same benefit; Shield Health increased by 40% total, Shield regenerates 20% faster when not in combat.

Active - Sandwich Time
A Perk that allows your dwarf to eat a sandwich at any deposit point while holding [Sprint] and [Shout], restoring 20% of your maximum health (base) and providing a movement speed and pickaxe speed buff for a short while, but can only be used once per mission. Upgrades slightly enhance health restoration and greatly enhance other capabilities.
Tier I: Health is restored by 20%, Movement Speed and Pickaxe Speed increased by 7.5% for 60 seconds.
Tier II: Health is restored by 22.5%; Previous speeds are increased by 15% for 90 seconds.
Tier III: Health is restored by 25%; Previous speeds are increased by 22.5% for 120 seconds.

Active - Space Jump Boots
A Perk that allows your dwarf to jump extremely high (about 3.5x standard jump height) to reach unexpected places by holding [Sprint] and [Jump] while standing completely still. Upgrades decrease cooldown time.
Tier I: Cooldown of 90 seconds.
Tier II: Cooldown of 60 seconds.
Tier III: Cooldown of 30 seconds.
Tier IV: Cooldown of 15 seconds.

Addendum:

The phrase "not in combat" means when you haven't used your primary or secondary weapons for a few seconds.
The benefits of Sweet Tooth, Second Wind, and Dash would all stack with the benefits of Sandwich Time, allowing a maximum of 55% health restoration and around 2.5x movement speed maximum.
Power Smashes have a chance to inflict stun. For Fear-omones Tier IV, if a Power Smash would not roll the Stun effect, it will always inflict Fear instead. Otherwise, it will only Stun.
Space Jump Boots would allow players to escape precarious situations and achieve mobility like none other, and stacked with the Low Gravity anomaly, even the Grappling Hook could be a trifle.

It would be super useful to allow the font size for menus to be made larger than the default. My friend on PS4 is unable to comfortably read text in most menus. This also would just be a super valuable accessibility feature. I know I would probably increase the font size on PC for me.

I had an idea to encourage longer term group play. A 3 or 4 mission long group assignment / xp multiplier.

Problem: After every match of playing with randoms, they drop a "GG" and immediately leave. Even if you have the same next assignment, they still leave, load the lobby, browse servers, and load into a new game. What I am proposing is to try to cut out the part where you have to load the lobby just to load into a new game by encouraging groups to play together for multiple missions.

Solution: This could be handled 1 of 2 ways. Either an assignment the host can take or a same team bonus that stacks on top of player's assignments. Either way the missions should give 1.1x xp, 1.15x xp, 1.2x xp, and 1.25x xp if completed in order, with the same team. Resetting after every 4th mission (or 3rd, depending on the way it is implemented). The active mission could default to the assignment mission that is held by the majority in the group. I think this should only work in teams of 4.

Pitfalls: Some people may ruin it for others if they can't play for extended periods or if they don't feel like it. It would be very annoying to get to the 4th mission just to have someone leave and reset the multiplier. Especially if you are trying to farm xp / power level. Though to be fair, I don't know if the devs want the ability to power level in game.

Some sort of heavy explosive ordnance for Gunner.
As reference I'm thinking either a shoulder-mounted rocket-launcher or recoilless rifle, guided or not, for the secondary slot; or a tripod-mounted recoilless rifle or a straight-up artillery-cannon as a primary.
The idea is one shot per reload, and massive damage either thru splash-damage (Fragmentation-warhead), or on a direct hit with medium to small splash-radius (Shaped Charge).
Maybe a repeating grenade launcher?

But really, the Gunner just deserves a man-portable artillery-piece. How else is he supposed to re-enact Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture? (Just kidding, but really tho)

odd agate Feb 10, 2022, 12:13 AM

#

In contrast with the PGL , the secondary-slot rocket launcher could have a stronger focus as an anti-armour single-target application instead of a crowd-control weapon, which fires a rocket-propelled projectile without a parabole.
(It could even have an overclock that reduces its splash-radius to effectively zero, but lets it deal damage thru indestructable armour!)

The primary-slot artillery-piece/recoilless rifle could be a weapon that deals massive direct- and/or splash-damage, with the downside of it being a breach-loading single-shot weapon with a lenghty reload-time and a very limited ammo-pool.
Perhaps it could have potential upgrades that either spec it more for crowd control with lower damage, higher splash-radius and higher ammo-count, or single-target damage, with the opposite.
Overclocks could be something like cluster-rounds that break up mid-flight and carpet-bomb an enormous area, tungsten penetrator-rounds that have no splash-damage whatsoever while employing the earlier concept of penetrating even indestructable armour, even if only very few times, or a shaped-charge which, upon impact, produces an explosive lance that extends and damages a few meters behind whatever got hit.
Perhaps some anti-material option that deals less damage but blows open or burrows thru terrain with ease?
Two more minor things... Fear, and backblast. Fear's the obvious one, most wildlife of Hoxxes would be scared to death by an artillery-piece firing, even some of the larger ones. (Not dreadnoughts, but maybe even opressors?)
Backblast is a thing with rocket launchers and recoilless rifles, and it does considerable damage if you get caught in it. I can see it being quite fun blasting bugs not only in front, but also behind you :D

#

Also, would it be alright if I went and looked for some reference-material for this? Rocket launchers, recoilless rifles of various sizes, artillery-guns, tank-guns, perhaps videos of such weapons being reloaded? And if yes, where should I put it?

(also sorry for the massive text-wall...

TL;DR: Management is considering equipping DRG's workers with dwarf-portable artillery-emplacements so they have a big gun with a bigger bullet to squash the biggest bugs so hard, you'll be able to see it from the space-rig.
Also, dwarven miner's unions have responded to a request for the formation of a marching band with the condition that they'd be provided with mass amounts of heavy ordnance with the purpose of conducting a live performance of Piotr Iljich Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. And now to Lloyd, with the weather.

Jokes aside, proper TL;DR:
Give us Artillery, and we'll make war, and music.

Allow simultaneous input from keyboard + mouse and gamepad.

The steam deck will be launching soon and Deep Rock was just rated as playable (this is fine, the reason it isn't verified is text scaling). The best way to really make a game shine on a form factor that combines joypad and gyro/trackpad is to allow input from multiple sources at the same time.

Right now if you want to use gyro aim in this game with mouse precision through a gamepad (say the steam controller, or Steam Deck), you need to map either left stick to WASD, or emulate joystick aim with trackpad + gyro. Neither of these options are ideal, and I think the reason for that is obvious.

This feature would be extremely niche, but it would open up a world of controller options ranging from accurate gyro aim on platforms that support it like Steam, PS, and Nintendo Switch (should it ever release there... those guys demand gyro aim) and would enable the implementation of advanced control schemes like FlickStick, without developer intervention.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dsL1wgu2e8

This is the best video that makes the case for simultaneous input. It's about the steam controller, but the features enabled by that device are supported by most gamepads available for purchase (Microsoft is the only hold out).

Photography & Sample Collection
"R&D wants to expand it's operation, which means we need more man power. Since we have a bunch of you already going down to the planet to risk life and limb, we felt we'd just outfit you instead. However, R&D will need something more solid than hearsay and drunken descriptions of flora and fauna, so we decided the next best thing was to give you all a camera in which you can take pictures with. Maybe we'll even give you a kit to gather samples with if your well behaved."

The concept is simple, provide an in-game camera in which the dwarves could utilize to, you guessed it, take photos. You'd be able to keep these photos in an album, best place most likely would be the miner's manual in a special tab. One of the most common uses would just be pictures of whatever. A funny lootbug, or maybe an interesting cave generation. A photo is worth a thousand words and being able to look back on past missions with an in-game feature would be lovely. Perhaps you could add specialty photos, in which you could turn in key-photos to the R&D for a smidgen of minerals or credits. Perhaps you could utilize some of the already included rare flora and fauna in the game, or even expand on that front. Maybe you could even have the camera be able to hover around the player in a small radius to be able to take selfies, or "dwarf-ies" for size comparison or just photographs with friends. Not that R&D approves of this, but they need someone to do it, and they most likely don't want to do it.

I will admit, it is something definitely niche in interest, but with the sheer ability of DRG to create the new and unexpected, it'd be fun to have something in game to make creating, viewing, and potentially even sharing photo's a breeze. Now, I know what you are going to say. "You can just take screenshots!". Having something with versatility and easy access is far preferable than navigating 6 different folds to wipe out an unlabeled jpeg from months gone by.

Option for female dwarves
Someone said dwarf gender is "indistinguishable"(which by the masculine features and voices it is a bit hard to fully believe), perhaps something lightly done- with the female option it could simply slightly refine a more narrow chin and flatter forehead.
At the least I heavily suggest some more-feminine cosmetics.

edit: anyone with a negative react should seek some professional help, no-one is talking about rainbow barf and unicorn fart levels for the game-that is not the drg spirit anyway, if introducing something more the opposite gender to yourself repels you then you are the issue.

Balanced Minigun Overclock:

Decreased armor breaking
Slight damage decrease?

I always wondered about all the thousands of flares we leave in Hoxxes, wildlife is almost guaranteed to consume them at one point. So what about a “Flare Lootbug” that is almost as rare as the golden lootbug, and on pop explodes into a bunch of (active) flares for a temporary light boost on the cave?

Modifier: Labyrinthine (could do with a different name I guess)
Only appears on max length/completely missions, somewhat uncommon.

The cave is especially large and complex, with multiple side rooms and dead ends. Mission objectives are spaced further apart, more linear missions like Morkite mining are made nonlinear. Escort missions have Doretta taking a winding, convoluted path with an extra stop. This would make the mission take longer, but the tradeoff would be more mineral spawns (same spawn rate, but you have more spawning area) and a guarantee of finding at least one of the following:
Machine event
Cargo crate
Lost helmet
Korlok weed
Seasonal event

When crossbows were originally announced, the developers mentioned being able to stand on the arrows, in a similar way to the Driller's Axes.

I propose a clean overclock for the crossbow, which makes the bolts much longer/wider, which will simply make it easier to stand on them, as an alternative to hoverboots / a platform to mine minerals with.

Alternative suggestion to UnusedName with crossbow bolts: Bolt-Pole Ballista overclock.

rocknstone Bolts are 25% larger and longer. It's now like a ballista!
Bolts can be stuck in walls and work as pole for boost-jump. Jumping on pole gives miner a significant and short boost in speed and jump distance, allowing to skip gaps.
Small enemies will be bolted to walls, stripped from armour and unable to move for short duration of time.

tothebone Walking/Running speed is decreased by 35% if crossbow drafted.
-25% ammunition.

What we will got is portative poles on walls dwarf could catch up, spin on to get some more inertion for future jump like Prince of Persia/Doom Eternal. Or just balance on top of it. Or play Half-Life references by bolting glyphids to walls. https://youtu.be/wyCfJI9i8lg

An OC for the new gun:

Coil gun: Unstable Overclock
Frost breath
Allows the user to let out a frozen shockwave.

rocknstone Allows the user to overcharge their weapon to create a frozen shockwave.

rocknstone +15% faster charge speed.

tothebone -30% ammo.

tothebone -25% pierce.

Would allow the new gun to have a mini snowball to counter flying enemies.

this was revealed to me in a dream

abyssal deep dives were added and had their own new biome and planetary regions that were pitch black with almost no glowing things except a couple red sugars or something dim

the objectives? i have no idea, but all i know is that you would have to rely on your headlamp the most since your flares either didn't work or had much shorter lifespans with longer recharges so you'd have to be sparing

the terrain scanner would be similar to the flares where it would either glitch out a lot or just not work, making it a challenge to navigate to where you needed to go

there would be no swarm indicators from mission control, but the mule would have a scanner on its sides that would alert you visually with no alarm so you would have to look at it directly to understand what is about to go down

hazard level would be something, i dunno. anyway me and my friends think this would be a fun and spooky challenge. this was the only reason i came to this discord

(image is a direct recreation of what i saw when i opened the deep dives menu in the dream, it was just some gentleman smiling at you like this and the elite text was replaced with a prunsel-oid eye, if i could even post it)
