Important part about the Seasons and Battle Pass: they’re completely free. I’ve had to tell too many friends that scoff at the Season terminal, “Wait! The battle pass is free!” since no other developers do that. Don’t have the time or missed a season? Don’t worry. Any new cosmetics go into the pool of equipment you can find during missions. So you’ll find them eventually.

[@tonyelectionfraud669]

This is so bad ass

[@zyriantel9601]

Seasonal missions stick around, too. You can still do Rival Presence mission types (EDIT: sorry, that’s “Corporate Sabotage,” Rival Presence is a mission modifier) even though it’s Plaguefall, and undoubtedly Lithophage Infestation and meteor drops will stick around when the new season hits.

[@mirkalimaricadie160]

This so much. I've explained this to friends that "actually, this is some sort of weird ethically monetized video game that doesn't waste your time". New premium cosmetic pack comes out, I jam that money into their moneyhole to support their efforts. I'm hoping other games follow DRG's example.

The devs of Deep Rock are amazing. One time me and my friend had a weird bug not allowing us to connect, citing an error so niche, that it yielded no results in steam forums or google search. When I filed a support ticket I got a response like 20 minutes after from an actual human (not an automated bot message) saying that it should be fixed by 5 PM. And it was.

Also, it's kinda simple as to why you don't do certaint things.(or do) Taking someone's reupply can leave them Low on ammo Not lighting up rooms in advance as scout even though you have a tool just for that, is slightly annoying at best. Not taking agro as gunner means someone else has to. Despite you having abilities specifically built for that. You force someone (likley more vulnerable to atacks) to deal with the enemies.

For anyone struggling with the OMEN fight, here's a tip to make it much easier: the buttons have a high hitbox for what is considered to be standing on them, this is to allow you to jump over the purple wave lasers, but if an engineer places platforms at dwarf-head height above the OMEN buttons, it means everyone can safely just stand on them without worrying about the purple lasers at all, and it still counts as standing on the buttons beneath to reveal the bosses weak spots

I like to imagine Karl was originally the CEO of the "Company" of DRG, but he was a forerunner that fought along side the dwarves as a miner, and sacrificed his life for his fellow dwarves who work for the company during a particularly horrific dive. I like this idea, because it explains the loyalty the dwarves have to the "company" despite the clearly stressed relationship of "Mission Control" and the dwarves. Karl was their original boss, and he died for them, fully believing in the company. I also like to imagine the "no dwarves left behind" thing wasn't made by the company itself, but rather the dwarves after being forced to leave Karl behind against their will.... Perhaps, maybe, the whole dive was sabotaged by the leaf lovers, which is why the dwarves hate them so much. Basically Karl was like if Batman fought crime as Bruce Wayne himself, and was like the complete reverse of "Kingpin" in that an empire was built for the sake of others. Plus it explains the apathetic and annoyed nature of Mission Control at the on-duty dwarves, perhaps they loved Karl too, and blame the dwarven miners. IDK.

The first time I walked into the Memorial Hall, something came over me. Without knowing it I was immersing myself in the world of these Dwarves. Their spaceship is a glorified Oil Rig full of heavily armed Alcoholics and run by bureaucratic pencil pushers, yet they made space to commemorate all those who were unfortunate, who didn't make it out. I realized then and there that this game allows me to be something special, to explore a level of comradery that I would normally not get with random strangers. And I vowed to Leave No Dwarf Behind.

[@themarlboromandalorian]

I did that. Then I realised...xp is xp. And those green beards I carry deserve it. They deserve a promotion. They deserve new guns and over clocks. Even if I gotta leave them behind to deliver the goods, I'm getting them their xp. We love to quote the propaganda, but we also like our shineys. And I'll help you get them. Even if it kills you.

[@Sombriage]

Aye. I recently played a game with some green beards (new players) as scout when I noticed two of my dwarven team mates got downed while the other continued on. Decided to turn back into a mess of praetorian glyphids to try and revive our gunner so that he could throw down a shield and save the driller. Ended up me and the gunner running back with the countdown timer reaching 0 so we just raised our pickaxes to the one dwarf who got out successfully as the drop pod left us behind. The downed Driller was host and was very green but hey we tried. ROCK AND STONE!

The thing Sseth didn't explicitly say about the Seasons is that they're 100% free, with no paid content at all (aside from extremely optional cosmetic DLC to support the company) and that all in-season content gets added to regular loot pools after the season ends so no FOMO. Additionally, the way the game is set up the new cosmetics don't dilute the pool of gameplay-altering upgrades; Machine Events will always offer you two Weapon Overclocks and one Cosmetic (until you clean out a dwarf's weapon pool), plus the Deep Dives and Weekly Core Hunt always gives a Blank Core, a Weapon Core and a Cosmetic Core. It's A++ game design.

@@alexanderrichards239 Getting into the mindset of the character helps, being an employee and it being your job. There's also the progression of unlocks, variety of mission types, no two caves ever being the same, the music, constant updates and the extreme attention to detail the devs have put in to literally everything. It may not be a buffet of activities, but the menu has been so fine tuned that it's gaming bliss. If playing solo, it can be a great activity while listening to the 30 something podcasts you have in your backlog, and if playing co-op it's always fun having that team dynamic. Also knowing that the devs are for once actually S-tier people who aren't just looking to churn out trash for money, that they actually take community suggestions and have non-predatory business practices makes me want to play it over almost any other game. Oh and you get to be a dwarf that mines, drinks, dances and fights And if you mine, drink, dance and fight enough you get a really nice set of gold statues and a neat title so there's that too Also there's a vague Warhammer/Starship Troopers vibe to it. And at the end of the day it's just satisfying to strip every cave of every precious mineral and make it back home. So I guess it's a combination, not just one thing.
