Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

The Monetization

I love the store. I love the items it gives. But hell, the pricing and the idea of this "premium currency" seems ripped straight out of something like Fortnite or any free-to-play game! I'd of rather they adopted an approach similar to Warframe: you can grind and grind and grind for the things you want or pay for immediate access. Don't think I'm just looking for freebies, I've spent £30 on Auric Cells! But it's disappointing to see yet another full game suddenly decide to flood itself with these micro transactions...

    Well you can grind for the majority of the content in the store. Roughly 80% can be earned, according to the Devs.

     I honestly think once they get more cosmetics in there it won’t be as much of an issue.Right there’s not much to choose because the recolors imo don’t count. Well unless you play meg then you have a decent amount to choose from

    I don't have any problems with it as long as the game is being worked on and the micro transactions being cosmetics only.

    As long as only cosmetics are aviable: No problem. Everybody can decide to buy something.

    Remember that some of these cosmetics can offer visual advantages, like Claudette's darker outfits and the several dark trousers available. The upcoming outfits for Claudette and Feng Min appear to also be dark. And I for some reason fear that the darkest variants will be Auric Cells only...

    The stealth part of the game is going to be reduced, akkording to the devs. So i think it's not that much of an advantage. There are enough ways to counter stealth.

    I'm good so long as dbd doesn't follow F13 by making dance emotes lmao 😹
    When creating cutesy clothing becomes more of a priority than fixing issues in the game, then I'll be forced to walk away lol
