Dirty Bomb General /dbg/

the autism team going to lose another cup tomorrow

oh wait...

every time

was the high level at least good?

Everytime I see someone mention OW they're shit.

he was atleast topscoring, but everyone in the game was around lvl 10s at best

i'm level 109 and i really like overwatch because of the high skill ceiling and engaging gameplay

lol

shitty lead loadouts every single time, transmute loadouts - all trash .... end my suffering. How come Proxyfags always end up with the highest score

>How come Proxyfags always end up with the highest score
because they're playing best girl obviously

>Proxyfags with high score
I'm not sure what game you're playing. They consistently go negative KD and always have about half my score. Even in min 20 servers.

Are you just bad?

more like especially in min 20 servers

Looks like people tend to run into her mines quite often, some Proxyfag killed 5 people with the mine, and proceeded to score tripple kills quite often the same way
>inb4 that's what she does
that's pretty much the moment I've stopped pretending my performance mattered during the match.

Definitely. Proxy tactics get stopped hard there.
That's true, mines are great ways to farm retards without having to use any skill. I haven't died to a mine in god knows how long unless it's from a Proxy who suicides herself to kill just me, which still doesn't happen often because it's a very slow process that only works if you're not looking.

It was given a fair buff recently. Throwing a mine is a lot faster now.

>Playing games designed to let bad players make kills.
If I can't carry a team of shits by being a turbonerd, the game is shit and not worth playing.

>implying you can carry in db by being a turbonerd

You can though. Your individual skill level can make a huge difference in Dirty Bomb. You can solo carry very hard in DB. You can't solo carry in Overwatch that often, that's why it's a harder game. There's more hard counters and focus on teamplay.

>that's why it's a harder game

Hardcounters and making barriers to cap skill doesn't make it a harder game. It's very easy to master every character and track headshots since the game is so shallow and slow. The rock paper scissors balancing makes it harder to carry unless the other team decides to not hard counter you.

It's harder as a solo player.

The hard counters are inherently bad though. It's hard to balance a game where everybody doesn't start out the same and Dirty Bomb has done it incredibly well. There are no hard counters in DB, there are only playstyles and mercs suited to those playstyles. Literally merc, while being unique and equipped to handle different scenarios can be boiled down to their three characteristics; range, speed, objective.

Wanna know why Fragger is considered the best? He gets three of the highest damage repeating weapons in the game and then a mininuke on a 15 second cooldown. He is however slow as fuck and has no direct utility in regards to objective maintenance. This kind of balance does not exist in Overwatch because of the fuck-retarded rock, paper, scissors that mentioned.

Now it's fine to say OW is harder, because it is, in a sense, but the difficulty of that game only serves to restrict people who would crush everybody else if the shitty system didn't exist. In actual fact OW is a much easier game for the majority of the community because people are bad at video games. That's not balance, that's pandering bullshit and you may as well go play CoD.

>Overwatch
>Hardcounters

Like any class based FPS game, people will run with the most optimized rollouts. In OW's case, it's Dubstep Nigger, Angel Slut, Winston, Winston, McCree, Tracer/Another McCree.

I understand all of what you're saying and agree, I'm just saying it's harder, not a better game, not a well rounded game, just harder.

I personally do not enjoy it much. It's fun here and there, and the characters and lore is fun, but I like Dirty Bomb more in every way, including character designs.

Even with the hard counters I don't consider Overwatch harder. I can rack up way more killstreaks with ease until a hardcounter gets an ult.

Someone like Bastion or Junkrat can easily carry in pugs because no one will go out of their way to hardcounter them. There are a lot of other classes that are really easy to use and just run train on newbies alone like Widowmaker or if you're paired together.

As long as the other team doesn't stack their ultimates or actually have decent synergy, it was fairly easy to destroy pugs in the beta. The same could be said about DB, if the other team is actually aware and has a balanced team it's pretty hard to break their defense or stop their from attacking. The problem is both games have a bunch of people who just want to play their favorite characters and don't care if they're not helping the team.

DB should track assists. I'm curious to see how many people who think they're carrying are just finishing their plate when everyone else is distracting and pestering the opponents. I know for a fact a lot of my kills are people who are only 50-80% health.

I wish it would track it too. I know I'm good close to mid range duels and capitalizing on my teammate's distractions. I'm very bad mid to long range fights though. I have trouble seeing opponents far away and tracking them that way. Feels like everyone else is better than I am at it.

So I feel like I'm doing all the killing, the objectives and all the distracting on maps like Underground, Terminal and Bridge, but on maps like Chapel, Trainyard and Dome, I feel like I spend most of the game flanking, shooting distracted enemies in the back and not really making good pushes. I kill a lot, but nothing gets done.

Sometimes I like sneak up to a chokepoint and just let loose on the side while my team is fighting the other team. Sometimes I get all the kills and other times I get shit even when I'm getting those sweet headshot sounds.

An easy fix for Chapel is to learn the various jumps. Namely the two to get into the attacker spawn in the beginning as defender and the one to get into the defender spawn as attacker towards the end of the EV push.

>all this hitscan
It's like playing dirty bomb except much more shit

>proxy won the event and got raped in the eyesocket as a result
>stoker is fine and dandy
Brilliant.

>Fletcher got "nerfed"

I mean literally skullfucked.

Giving Stoker more battle damage would only make him a bigger badass.

cute

Post your mains and primary card for your main. Autism post explaining why is not required.

Phoenix is mine. You'd think I like him for self-revive, but his true strength is his speed and his quick and instant self-heals. You can bounce up and around enemies for a long time and then you can just inject yourself with some health to stay in combat.
It's non-stop action experience with Phoenix and usually gets my heart pounding in the most heated situations.
He may not be a good team healer like Sawbonez or Aura, but he's the most fun merc.

Regarding the card KE81
Hochfir
>not the best gun, but if you have good tracking, it's pretty effective. problems arise in 1v1 when other good tracker tracks your head with higher damage weapon
Selbstadt
>best pistol.
Beckhill knife
>best melee weapon next to katana. good for finishing low health players up-close
Cool (Gen 1)
>not very useful as I don't like stationary mounted guns.
Untrackable (Gen 2)
>Only adds to the flanking gameplay I do, but I like the obsidian skin. If I ever get gen 2 KE81 cobalt then I might start using that over this one
Extra supplies and potent packs
>The salt and pepper of this card. You can keep injecting yourself with health with short cooldowns and it's great. You can really extend your life for long periods of time. Best perk combo Phoenix could get.

You always want get up more than anything, but I usually play a flanker as Phoenix with no other teammates around me, so it would be kinda wasted on me. If I wanted to play a healer I would play the AOE healer, the offense/tank healer or the revive specialist.

Phantom is pretty ok too, but he's slightly slower and his shield's cooldown is way too long and you have to constantly find healing stations or medpacks like any other merc. This breaks the action.

>maining

case-a-day may is great, got nothing but silvers and golds so far

Maining does not mean I play exclusively.
Maining means it's my favorite and spend the most time playing as.

I also enjoy this card.

The only one I've seen is Dixu

Enjoy paying for a worst game!

No more >combat sapper with a smile

I went between Stoker and Arty for months, but the past 6 weeks I've loved Thunder. The MK46 feels amazing. It's my highest accuracy primary outside of snipers and it has my highest KPM. His HP, his LMG and his ability allow me to be constantly aggressive. Much like how you play Phoenix, Thunder is a non-stop bum rush of action for me. I get to bully Fletcher, duel with snipers without fear, trap fast mercs in faux tar pits, out muscle Fragger, and just generally annoy the shit out of the enemy team with flash bangs.

I've been incredibly happy with the update of him. It feels like I'm casting a slow mo spell on the people I concuss. Seeing the faster mercs panic as they try to run but barely make it a few feet is amazing. I also like to use the Timik and Stark with him, but the MK46 is more satisfying and has better killing potential when multiple people are slowed. After the buff to Tuff, MA42 is even more amazing.

My only real issue with him is now Support/Game Mode missions become a bitch. At least when I played Arty and Stoker I could give out ammo and destroy EVs/generators, finishing my missions and playing my favorites at the same time.

SM41 desperate fag here
Just a failed another weekly gold trade up
More news on the next fail next week

Keep at it, I still have my gold crown one for you reserved.

I'm glad sm41 didn't change between 1 & 2 though
I still have hope
2 more and i can try getting it cobalt

Gaspar Ebola is best.

When Bush plants a turret - does it disappear from his back?
When Aura plants station - does it disappear of her hip?

I played this game for 200 hours but somehow never paid attention.

no, the models are static

From what i saw, no it doesn't
It could be a nice addition, and should inform people around on Cooldowns

PLENTY
OF
FRUIT

Turret is a large part of Bush's model and silhouette.
Removing it would mess up recognizability.
And reduce his hitbox.

Though is Bush's turret-backpack even part of hitbox? Can you kill Bush by firing at turret from the side so it goes through turret side-to-side and doesn't hit body?

what kind of promotion is that from? never seen it before, looks pretty good

Cuntainment War

Containment War event when Stoker got released.

alright, was probably during the half year break i took a while ago

I want to do a cobalt trade in, but i´m not sure for which merc, suggestions?
Mercs i don´t want/need cobalts for:
>Fragger
>Bombchimp
>Nader
>Phantom
>Redeye
>Vaseline
>Aimee
>Proxy
>Rhino

Do one for Bushwanker. He's the best character in game :3

>free multikill every 15 seconds
>implying thunder isnt the ultimate pubstar shitter crutch

I agree. My only gripe with him is that they made his grenade fuse even shorter last update. It's really hard to concuss people if not thrown directly at them because there is not enough airtime to bounce the nade off something.

Did you hurt your wrist?

Why are you trading away best Kira?

i don´t play him that often. he´s ok, but meh

That's not how you spell PDP redeye

No Weebstick, and i already got a good one in ReV

Where do you guys think thunder is from?
I think he is from Lithuania.

>weebstick
But this is the card for serious play, no gen 1 card is better that new S81

Trade up that shitty sparks instead of best kira

You can kill fragger by shooting his big ass backpack.

2 things, i really really do like the caulden and it´s in shard, which i don´t like that much on the Stark
why is that a shit spark, i now that i doens´t have quickcharge, but potent packs+extra supplies help a lot to survive

>why is that a shit spark, i now that i doens´t have quickcharge, but potent packs+extra supplies help a lot to survive
because it's not 383

Ukraine

Sparks' main job is reviving, that card has no get up or quick charge. And 4 medpacks is plenty to heal yourself twice to full health.

Finland

muh reddit meta, also quickcharge got nerfed to 10%

get up wasn't

can´t argue with that

>using a shit loadout just because it's shiny

back on topic, any serious suggestions for mercs which i can do the trade up for?

The mercs you play the most. With gen2 cards, the amount of shit you can get is severely reduced.

sparks

currently:
>Phoenix, already got good 2 kek cards
>Thunder: best Stark in Gold and best Mk46 in Cobalt
>Bombchimp: Bl32 in Cobalt and A31 in ReV
>Sparks: 383 in silver and the cobalt everyone got mad about

forgot Skybro
too afraid to get aTolen shitter card
