Dirty Bomb | A Little Ranty Gameplay

[@AAden-pd6hh]

I consider myself more of a seasoned player than a veteran in dirty bomb (only 467 hours in game) and for me the biggest reason for dropping it is the veterans leaving. Sure, as a newbie it was tough getting pwned by superior skill all the time at the start but it made me wanna keep it at to get better and I did. I mainly played the game solo so I've always been in the server browser cuz CMM just took too long to find games. I really enjoyed finding high level (skillful) players on the opposite team cuz it gave the match a nice tense feeling that helped me better my gameplay. And it doesn't help that the new players aren't getting schooled so they're playing the game like it's CoD or some shit instead of learning the fun movement mechanics.

[@truthfulchaos8656]

And this is why I moved to CSGO shortly after they started adding skins. My DB experience ended at level 85, before the update

[@EtherFox]

3:33: The only thing anyone should have been doing at this time, you included CAD, was destroying the generator. Even if it would have been mag dumping the KEK for 15% gen HP, it would have been time better spent.

[@ItsHari]

This is Dirty Bomb its always Dirty , you need to play Dirty to play Dirty , that's so much Dirty

[@FrostyEspresso]

Great video Cad! You make some good and valid points when it comes to weapon skins. I mean FFS, Loadout cards are the things everyone is after, not really weapon skins. SD just randomly added them in for a cash grab and mostly they are all garbage unless you get a gold or cobalt in pristine... Which is very unlikely due to the chances to get anything in pristine at all and or in gold/cobalt rarity. Plus, they don't benefit you unlike a loadout card... So remind me why is a weapon skin 5 bucks and a loadout is only a extra buck to spin for in prime cases... Either way, we're all quite disappointed and pissed at SD for these poor events and promises they made within about a year ago... So as much as I hate to say this but I don't really blame anyone leaving this hot mess of a game.

[@r3mii-CL]

SD could learn something from the Fortnite Devs, because they listen. For skins, I think they should give the characters a different set of clothes for the event instead of the same clothes they always wear but with a different pattern slapped on there.

[@babymage]

I'd like a video reviewing the obsidian cards that changes the appearance of the merc please.

[@traida111]

I think removing the CMM was the right decision, only they should have waited until they built a system to replace it. Such as a way to play with your freinds.

[@ee-hangodfrey5204]

Its sad to the point of almost me tearing up tbh. Its a game that I never realised I cared so much about. I'm only lvl 66 and I care so much for this game. I want this game to find success so much but SD just don't have the funding and aren't doing the right things. I'm hoping that this game lives and prospers but if it does (and I think it will) then hopefully another game learns from it. Sad to see it this way.

[@jager2691]

you are right I have like a month since I played DB cuz I just got bored

[@imaybeaorange8789]

idea for a video 30 kills with a melee

[@FotisNorscan]

I agree in most of the points you make. The game is really unbalanced, I have over 1000 hours and only 5% of my time played consists of really tough and balanced matches (win or lose i don't care). The rest is either rage quit to save time and search for another match, or if you get the high skill team it's a brutal and super fast gg ez which is boring. It's sad really because DB is truly f2p, has a high skill ceiling, good maps, fast paced combat and interesting and balanced classes. The horrible balance/matchmaking is gonna be the end of this game. Downloading battlefield 4...

[@sharlene5940]

we need a SDK kit...only way to save the game

[@TheEpicPancake]

I think a large part of this game's decline was the cmm removal. Fucked the balance, and fucked the fun for whoever wanted to play with friends. If they made it so cmm was added back in and took time to think about how new content would affect the game, then I would be fine with it. I don't care about the rate of updates, I play tf2 and that game gets updates about every half year or so, but if the updates are good and the changes don't break everything, I think that's all I need to be content. A note on people trying to urge out updates: Dontcha think that if the updates are pushed out super fast, that the problems that came with the phantom rework will be more prevalent? If SD keeps trying to rush out updates, the frequency of bad ones is gonna be much higher.

[@Trancecend]

There's not enough players to get good balance I'm afraid, and no one enjoys being shuffled against their will (well I don't mind personally, but most don't). Removing ranked was a sign of desperation - they wanted balanced matches above anything, and if they could force everyone to play the same game mode, it would be easier... It backfired. Regarding the weapon skins, at least the "worn look" looks better than when the first launched. I don't mind anymore as I feel it gives the gun more character, and I've actually opened my wallet for once. Some of the skins are pretty cool, albeit overpriced.

[@Chanc3Trance]

Honestly, SD really needs to set priorities and listen to their players. I sometimes feel that someone is not doing their job well at SD. Everything they have released was kind of half-done instead of fully functional. The Phantom rework didn't change Phantom at all. The removal of CMM and Ranked was just weird. SD really need to get their shit together. Or am I missing something?

[@AAden-pd6hh]

I'm sure everyone here's had matches where your team of complete random strangers come together and play in such perfect harmony you'd think everyone's on comms but ofc not, it's just players who know how the game works, picked their roles and supported each other for that win. Even better is when it feels like both teams are on that wavelength just intensly clashing it out. Win or lose leaves you satisfied and thinking 'that was a good game, GG'. Good luck finding that now with this atrocious balancing.

[@half_bakedshinobi4924]

Do a per merc in depth how to/review.

[@qs00_]

Dirty bomb far from bad, but atm it can't compete with all the other options of games

[@toniforrestal]

It would even help if they had servers level based. level 50 + servers, level 20 and under servers. etc. I haven't played a game in Dirty bomb in months where I wasn't on a team obliterating the other team in a minute, or being stuck with level 1-10's against top tier players. How is it even possible to get balancing so wrong?

[@jlostepbystep1908]

i feel bad for new player i tried to shuffle no one page up

[@timoncallens8030]

You could try black ops 4 when it comes out.

[@traida111]

I uninstalled the game when they removed the player levels from the scores. i am waiting until they fix the balance, because I told them how to fix it, if they listen its another story. But I did reinstall the game again just in case it goes to 1.0 and they try and charge me for it. lol. but i havent played it since. If they come up with a better system than the minimum level 10 bullshit, like an actual proper way to seperate new and vet players onto seperate servers (such as the idea I suggested to them), then I might come back and play again

[@aladdinsdk6466]

I haven't played the game in like a month or so and I'm not really tempted to play it again

[@imaybeaorange8789]

i haven't played since 2017-09

[@Schenkel101]

aim-punch is one thing, but screen shakes that have nothing to do with the fight are stupid and should be disableable (that's a word because I say so).

[@leonlai5805]

Yes finally a another video although it's about problems with db what you said $5 for a weapon case is ridiculous but anyways can you do the 500 or 100 kills episode with the k 121(primary gun for fragger) anyways enjoy your day assassin

[@theophilepailleux8497]

Don't say it is unbalanced... look, I had a balanced game in May.

[@Deowin99]

I still cant understand why they removed CMM

[@CadGamings]

There are too few players playing, soo it took too long to create matches. Though imo removing a feature that helps people to play together only is going to drive down the playerbase, but only time will tell :S

[@davitube4747]

CadGamings their point COULD make sense if waiting was really too long.... but, man, do we really prefer a quick stupid umbalanced game which you join half-way through or 2 minutes of queue, spent for a decent game? I would've kept playing even with this lack of updates if they hadnt removed CMM and bloody Ranked! How can you think of such a skill-based game with no aim to be competitive? That doesnt make sense! What if they just made an option for people who wanted to quick join to quick join and for people who wanted CMM, CMM? They still wouldnt reach enough players to balance games propely... but this leads to their next step: the removal of server location choice, since they want to have as many people as possible on a single match so that they can somehow balance it better... They keep saying the fault is the lack of playerbase, but why do we have such a random shuffling system? Just build it better and then we'll talk..there are literally tons of games I could balance better than the system itself (don't get me wrong, I understand the lack of playerbase isn't a good thing, but the hard balance they could still apply isn't being applied) Don't know if I expressed myself well... Sorry for my English

[@washingmach4988]

İts been a long time

[@salvyararcher6486]

I totally agree with you. The updates come honestly still very slow next to no balance changes they removed the playing with friends etc etc. They also said for the 1.0 there will be no new map so what actually are they working on? A new merc? They promised 7 mercs for one year right? How long was hunter aggo(maybe im mistaken). Anyway these last couple of " dev" videos also have been super empty. What did they add these months in contrary to what they removed...... (sorry for my bad english.)

[@naonna1]

There aren't enough people with 2k hours in the game to have their own queue. The best you can do is switch teams and risk a loss when it's a landslide. - The removal of 'play with friends' makes some sense to me, as a team of your friends (all over 1000 hours in game) vs low-levels isn't fun for either side. While it's possible to still have fun when the high levels organize themselves evenly between teams, that isn't really what quickplay is optimized for. If you want an even game, you're going to have to form your own competitive teams and use an outside system to orchestrate matches.

[@CadGamings]

I agree with you for the most part. It's just that making private matches takes longer to do than the actual matches themselfs. And for the team stack of 1k hours players, they could have limited the size of a CMM party, maybe.

[@AAden-pd6hh]

Levels aren't the be all and end all of the game. Not to hurt anyone's pride but the fun in this game is skill based and more hours doesn't necessarily mean better skill wise. Even if the opposing team is filled with higher level/skilled players, playing against them IS the fun part where you get to polish your own skills and improve. Secondly in CMM people don't play that competitively so it wouldn't feel like going against a 'stack'. Just my 2 cents worth of input

[@Troiler]

5:58 where do we find those statistics for any game?

[@CadGamings]

It's a site called Steamcharts, you can find info of pretty much any game on it.

[@tristanvermande9455]

Is there a way you can get discount on mercs?

[@CadGamings]

Nope :( Either grind or pay €£$

[@LovroZimak]

I want a banana kukri.

[@1StIwY1]

No more DB to me without Ranked mode. The day they will bring it back i might come back to play. Anyway i think the game have an hopeless future anyway, playerbase is too low, and the 1.0 seems still far, despite of devs promises. FAIL.

[@aladdinsdk6466]

BTW can you do a tutorial on the drise AR with kira I have 500h on the game and I don't know how to use it properly

[@CadGamings]

I'm honestly the worst person to do a tutorial on the Dreiss

[@naonna1]

Only fire in bursts of up to 4 before letting the spread re-set.

[@mysteriousstranger6456]

i'm arty main and dreiss is my most used weapon after blish, yes, deiss is bad in term of spread but its not worst if you know how to use it. since headshot damage nerf on burst rifle and driess its not too OP anymore. not sure if it matter but i use circular reticle with (dot in mid). it helps me to easily notice when spread increases. i'm not even sure if all reticles widens with spread because i didn't tried any other than circular one. first tip is most obvious always aim for head, i feel its headshot damage is pretty good on it. 90hp merc are easily down in 2-4 hits. when not ads , dont fire more than 5 shots in rapid succession. if you are at range,then ads after first 5 shots. ads have extremely low spread, you can even snipe the snipers if your aim is good. but if you are close range, you have option to go melee or dodge left right and start shooting again due to spread reset. sometime spread is so bad during rapid fire that you will miss target in front you in close range. if you have chance to fire slowly without ads, you can easily shoot every bullet with max accuracy, like when enemy is engaging your teammate. moving too much is not suggested or maybe its just me,who does not rush forward too much. driess loadout with focus+reload speed can really make it dish out great dps but you will run out of ammo quick, sometime even as a jav. i have that load out on both jav and redeye, but for arty i use obsidian operative card.

[@nightfox723]

1.0 really is the final chance for DB to stay alive. If they don't do any advertising it's dead 100%

[@brandonsclips7741]

I hope you dont find this rude but I would maybe look for another game / games to feature on your channel. Dirty Bomb is / had a ton of potential but they're kind of killing the game. I come for you and I like your gameplay and opinion on shooters and such so I dont mind if you move on. There are so many things they promised that they haven't delivered on. And maybe it's not their fault. They probably dont have the funding for new mercs or heavy gameplay changes. Maybe try Ironsight if you wish. That's a really good f2p shooter. Thanks for your time if you read this.

[@CadGamings]

Thanks, yes I've thought about other games. I tried Ironsight and enjoyed it but not as a 'main' game. I might play the new Insurgency and World War 3 when those games are released. But they're completely different types of games.

[@brandonsclips7741]

CadGamings Like I said I'm down for whatever you play my man. Best of luck to you

[@airwipe1639]

CadGamings you should try rainbow six siege!

[@JanReichelt]

The unbalanced games makes u value the balamced games higher ^~^

[@kinggaming-dd2yv]

But i can spreak good amarica

[@peloslash]

Wait, you are back man?

[@CadGamings]

Yea sorta, I'm fully coming back when college starts. Hoping for at least 1-2 vids a week

[@peloslash]

CadGamings well I'm glad man! Best of luck!

Are you coming from dutch

[@CadGamings]

Yes I'm Dutch

[@shemzer0440]

[@kinggaming-dd2yv]

Mee tooo

[@ramosramos7815]

if you want to have fun in db just play in FF ON server with javlen

[@mysteriousstranger6456]

after near 1k hours, i'm still playing DB but now days, i have zero faith DB will be able to get major 1.0 player spike and be able to retain them. its just not polished or balanced enough. concept of game play is really fun but no merc limit,no ranked, no mm balance is big turn off for every newbie. i know many says not being able to party is biggest problem in the game. but its devs that are unable to balance a coordinated players in squad recking random players. they always goes for stupidest method to solve the problems. look at new ability cooldown penalty for merc stacking. why should i be punished for someone else choosing same merc as me. weapon skins are ugly and its near impossible to acquire highest rarity. never purchased one and never will in future. they should either remove ugly rarities or make key with real money to give guaranteed highest rarities. too much RNG in these skins. and cad please feel free to play other shooter game if you are burned out from DB. i will watch ANY other game you play. GL

[@LovroZimak]

Hah I'm the master of crappy audio. (I need to buy a microphone). Do something experimental.

[@Bswatch]

are you playng fortnite Cad?

[@CadGamings]

Nope, I don't like BR games

[@Bswatch]

ok,Thanks for the replay....love your videos

[@danserr]

First

[@luversels]

So... a heathen here. Can anyone point out what the problem is. Like has everyone forgotten the nexon days. So why is it now such big of a deal. Anyway. I have 700 in match hours. For months i've played almost nothing but Sparks. And i'm having the time of my life. Like the other day i got in a match with you. Your team kinda kicked our ass. And i had just as much fun as any other match. Like yeah matches are unbalanced. THEY ALWAYS WERE. Shuffling used to be a meme in and of itself. It seems that very few people have that mentality. That when ur getting stomped is the best opportunity to get better and when ur stomping maybe play dumb and let a few hits in. Especially the second one. Like ur gonna win anyway just let the other team progress so that they dont feel like they wasted their time. Yeah i'm sick of suicidal javelins, easymode fraggers, double rhino cleanup units and such. BUT i would much rather play against such scrubs than with them. You see since i just play Sparks (combat sparks to be precise) i am just looking for a challenge. The overall match doesnt matter to me. Only the individual engagements. And i'm having tons of fun. I probably lost my point in all that. So all i got to say is that something's changed in the players cuz the game hasn't changed much. And it pisses me off that everyone are just finding excusses.

[@AAden-pd6hh]

I kind of agree to some extent. Only have about approx. 500 hrs on the game but yeah, I shifted from the win mentality ages ago and played for fun. It was more as you said about the individual engagements so I picked up all the snipers, went for melee builds, pineapple juggled Javelins and all that fun stuff but I miss the challenge of playing with and facing higher skilled opponents/veterans and they've all but left. Not only that but for me personally it feels like the flow of the game has changed with the old playerbase leaving and new players joining in (it's quite eery the amount of matches I've felt that with players on both sides just not using the movement mechanics in the game and playing it like CoD) and I find that boring. That and Shotguns FFS lol

[@luversels]

That's right. The thing is, the competetive aspect was still there not too long ago. In ranked. For me it was a bliss. It was all fair game there. It was all about the win. I was top gold so i was regularly playing with cobalts and a few times with elite ops. Like i didn't experience any of the problems people had with ranked. My Qs were less than 2 minutes. Most of the matches were balanced. So given that apparently i was the only person who didn't hate ranked, i can safely say that it was competetive and i had lots of 50/50 matches where a team won by seconds. And yeah in the early seasons when i still sucked i was low silver and i remember i was mad as hell. But last 2 seasons was the best time i had in DB ever. RIP ranked.

[@Honir4]

Hella dead game
