[DLC Ideas] Dump Them Here!

[ : I don’t think the game needs much D.L.C., over maybe new-areas and: robot-types. : As we can see on the map, the areas we have explored minimal, like the broken-bridge leading North to the large-land-mass. : With that would come new-weapons, attachments, robot-types, continuation of the story, ect. : I think what the developers said in the last-update was on-point, Balance. : Its absolutely welcoming to see a company focused on producing solid-game-play-experiences then dedicated micro-transaction-traps mimicked by so many other developers. ]

I agree. I think that we need a few major dlc’s rather than lots of little ones. It should be delivered in the similar size and fashion as Fallout 4 rather than something like Just Cause 3.

So, just thought of this, but it would be kind of neat to have a cosmetic DLC themed around historical reenactment. Sweden has a long and storied military history, so there’s lots of stuff to choose from (and I would love run around with a group of friends dressed as karoliner).

I think this would be a good addition so long as I or anyone else is not paying for them, but instead have the choice to download them for free and the only thing we have to spend is storage space.

I dont’t mind if the cosmetic cost money. It doesn’t effect the game play in any way if you have it and the others didn’t buy it. If it’s weapons on the other hand I think it should be free. If you have a machinegun and your friend didn’t buy that dlc you can’t give it to him, he can’t find a better one he could give you. So weapons free and clothing can cost money. In my opinion.

I’d like to see some type of daily/weekly multiplayer challenge. Select the “challenge mode” as a multiplayer matchmaking option and when you load in with your team you are required to complete a set of objectives (destroy certain special machines/stockpiles, raid supply caches then escape from a constantly respawning wave of enemies, things like that) and along the way there will be hard to find loot containers that have items in them that can only be obtained from this mode, maybe apparel items that have slightly boosted perks over the regular in game versions or just entirely new items all together. With this, new machines or special harder versions would need to be created for mini-boss/boss encounter scenarios. It would be something akin to a raid.

Cosmetics are actually one of the few things I personally would rather just pay for because they quite simply are little more than vanity items. It’s a very easy way for the devs to add a small extra income stream to a game without actually impacting anybody’s ability to play the game itself.

In most games I’d say no to any micro-transactions even cosmetic but for this game maybe. The game is good, the devs seem to care so maybe a little extra income flowing in would be deserved.

Perhaps it does but how do those microtransactions reflect their motives? :confused:

I’m not sure what you’re trying to ask.

I’d say the issue isn’t that it’s a microtransaction, but how they’re actually used (which I think is what @J053phH1.LL is getting at). It’s obvious that what was done with Shadows of War or the recent Star Wars Battlefront 2 was bad on multiple levels. However, you’d have a very hard time convincing any sane person that the 2 USD cosmetic packs for Borderlands 2 are actually bad given that they’re not an infinite money sink, don’t impact gameplay in any practical way, and give you exactly what you want when you buy them.

Ok i get it. On that note I did say it maybe wouldn’t be a bad thing for this game (as long as they stay away from rng loot box mechanics that is).

Yes that’s right. I’m sorry it was not clear earlier.

A new collectable. VHS tapes. That’s a thing from the 80’s i miss in the game.

We could also have collectable off brand video games as well!

I would definitely like to see more cosmetic stuff"police uniform,firefighter,hunter", and some stuff that has actual uses, like web gear,backpacks, and i wouldnt mind the base fortification with a wave mode.

So, my idea for DLC content is to make all building destroy-able, this will make combat more realistic. add in new robots, like a repair bot, or a massive boss bot that drops tanks and other enemies. the ability to actually claim a bunker to be your home base so you can improve it and upgrade your weapons and armor.
I would like for the AI to actually learn how I play and counter my style so i have to learn to play better.
Daily missions that open up weekly story content.
I would like the enemies to be a lot harder and smarter.

I suggest making the 2 currently inaccessible islands DLC while making the main land “free”. Introduce a motor boat that “fast travels” you from the big main island to the small island. And if the host owns the DLC, the other players can join there too.

Furthermore I think it would be cool if you could take one of the camp site Safehouses and “pimp” it with a few predefined choices (so not base building but still making it your own spot)
This Safehouse would be unique, maybe contain a second storage container that is not shared with the other Safehouses?

Lastly, purchasable gun/bicycle skins

Things that majorly affect gameplay (vehicles, enemies, guns etc) should remain “free” for the people that already bought the game imo.

“destroyable buildings” would mean they would have to rework the entire physics system of the engine, the hit and damage systems as well, and redesign the entire map with new, destroyable buildings. It really isn’t worth the effort from a game developer’s perspective. It would also be impossible to sell as DLC since it will effectively be a different game so you wouldn’t be able to play with someone that doesn’t own the DLC.

EDIT:
Also adaptive AI that counters your playstyle does not exist. If that existed, the devs could sell the source code for billions to other companies such as Activision etc.

EDIT 2:
The devs do not have enough manpower to make weekly content/missions, this project probably has been made in the time span of over 5 years and it really is impossible to even just add 1 extra mission a week. More like 1 a month.
