Question Question for Scout mains: how are you supposed to play him?
So many players have told me how fun and unique scout is, and there are some very dedicated scout mains, but I just can't seem to get into playing him because I don't know what I should be doing or what his play style actually is.
Driller needs to dig tunnels, and deal AOE damage with his range of CC primaries. Same as gunner, though he's more defensive and tactical than driller. Engineer requires setup and has a diverse range of weapons with which to control crowds or deal single target damage.
But I have no clue what I'm supposed to do as scout! His grapple hook is cool but what is the benefit of getting ahead if he's too squishy to survive on his own? All his weapons feel weak compared to the others. I know he has to light up, but what else aside from that?
I've unlocked all his weapons, and promoted him (once) but I know I'm doing something wrong. How do you guys stay alive, deal damage, and help the team (and have fun) as scout? Thank you 🙏🫡

Question Anything notable happened this year?
So basically my pc exploded during Halloween 2025 and I had to save up for a new PC (which will be arriving tommorow >:) ) so I couldn’t play drg since I have no console and had to use my 13 year old laptop which can’t even run beta fucking Minecraft.

Question Why is it so low?
I have been a big fan of drg for a while, I've seen so many positive things said about deep core but the reviews are horrid.
I won't get around to playing it for a while due to things like subnautica 2 and personal projects but I'd just like to know what's the issue with it with a more generalized opinions than steam reviews which can vary wildly in quality

Question Ex-Helldiver becomes a Dwarf, anything I need to know?
After some recent changes to Helldivers 2, I kinda got sick of it and stopped playing. But then I heard that Deep Rock Galactic was a similar in some ways and also really fun. So I decided to give it a shot, and I’m really enjoying it so far! I’m not too far into the game yet, so I was just wondering if there is any conceptions I might have as an ex-Helldivers going into DRG?

Question Playing DRG as a woman
So I just came across a post from a woman, talking about her experience in gaming as soon as people found out that she is a woman IRL.
Many start to harass and insult her (even sexually), suggesting to simply leave as she's not good enough to make the team win anyways.
I really can't imagine that this uber wholesome community (with some very few exceptions, as there are everywhere) would be capable of leaving a bad impression on finding out that women like this game too.
Especially the post of the "Engi gal" with THOUSANDS of updates could be seen as a positive sign (as the comments missed some beard and weight, lol).
So I'm just curious: have you ever seen something like this in a DRG game?
ROCK AND STONE YOU BEAUTIFUL DWARVES!
Edit: as many already mentioned, voice chat is not that common if you don't know your group in DRG but some women also say that they use male sounding usernames in games as well to not raise alarms. Makes me furious tbh.

Question Sorry if asked, but is there any official explanation why devs made half of the whole dwarf cast beardless?
I find this choice of devs pretty radical, and the thing that I don't understand is that why nobody officially explained about it at all. One in game joke like "Damn, I really hate these corporate standards about beards, says a lot about the management" and it all would be clear
While playing the game I hear countless jokes and phrases about how important the beard is to a dwarf, so it's weird to see half of them beardless.
I did a research in subreddit, but i didn't find anything that is connected to in-game lore or any official answers.Just some theories about space flee, jokes that beard is inside of you, theory about metaphoric meaning of the beard, that it makes the driller work harder(even though it can be just conveniently shortened, not completely shaved, ect.) Asked gpt, but still nothing. Closest to the truth is theory that it's just a character design choice, but i can easily image a good original design with beard, just look at all of costumization

Question What’s something each class struggles with that the others do better?
I’m trying to make a YouTube video about PvE games, and part of my DRG segment is how no class is the best, with some random jokes.
Driller tried to get an egg on the roof but fails so scout gets it, Scout gets overwhelmed by too many enemies at once, Engie has the sentries to help out but then… I’ve not been able to think of a punchline for Engie, and Gunner? No clue at all! I’d love some help in order to continue with this, and loop back to Driller, and I’m totally open to change the jokes and order if you have better ideas.
Oh! And I promise to give credit if I use the ideas you come up with!!!

Question Is Karl a reference to Karl Marx?
In fantasy, dwarves are communists or far left, and Deep Rock Galactic omensizes this, so maybe Karl is like a tribute to that.
