I have a couple of gripes.

- When my team mate got boosted straight into the air (by the enemy),
he was the only person I was open too as I had two enemy players on me, yet I couldn't pass to him.
This is annoying when you are so used to having freedom of passing to boosted people. :(

- The pain causing volumes are STILL bugged.
It still takes a full second for instant kill volumes to take effect.

- I don't like the way you've boosted the jump height of sprinting players,
you should have left the height as it was.

- Replays get tedious fast. IT should be based on a majority clicking,
not everyone.


To tell you the truth, I'm finding DB annoying now. It's not as fun as it used to be in 1.6.
Now it's too oriented around league play for my liking. I love Warfare and Tennis though.

K, my 2 cents (btw, im a Euro Player :p)

1. I think personally the broomstick passing should come back...or at least have the option to enable it

2. Kill the sounds :p

Apart from that, still a good game

/me hopes that a DB 1.9b is around the corner

thats why i didnt want them to be an option now, because people would turn em off before they learn how to use them :)


Utter BS if you ask me. I don't like the sounds period. And I will not come to like them more in the future, but yes I will probably get used to their shittyness and stop caring at some point, but it doesn't change the fact that you could have chosen/made som better sounds.

no, i have no problem with adapting, just i feel that the game plays better, and has a more interesting scoreline / tatical aproach when you can pass to somone flying through the air....which makes the game play better

Make it optional.

you recieve the ball, there should be an aroused lady saying "You have the ball" or "YES!" just for our pleasure!

Yes indeed that would be 1337 and no one can lie :p

I suggested this in another thread thought I'd post it here. What if we could select sounds that we could make ourselves (or download them made by others). Different people respond to different sounds, and it would be fair if we were able to select the sounds which help us most.

I think 1.9 minus the sounds and craptacular replay is great. The majority (not all duh) of the people i hear complaining are the "newer" db players in the na community who have the attention span of a pube and/or can't shoot or pass. I'm happy to see broomstick gheyness gone. Defense IS way too easy now though. You can't really please everyone though so whatevuh.

im new to db and i am also complaining because i cant score without broomstick, which is why i want it back in

broomstick isnt even the issue to me, you can butcher it all you want, but not being able to pass to a boosted man, which is sometimes the only option is crap. broomstick can be easily stopped unless youre incompetant!!!11111oneoneoneeleven
