    Fast pace class shooter. Gun mechanic is fun but that is it. It says class but there is barely any difference between classes. Also u want to customize ur class? Good luck finding the roght deck cuz u will be spending lots of money on it if. Instead of buying individual weapons or perks and setting them up, u have to get these loadout cards that has presets from boxes and they cost someFast pace class shooter.

    Oh Dirty Bomb, how much dost thou suck? Let me count the ways:

    -Terrible lag correction -Cheaters -Boring weapons and skills -Ridiculously low player health -Ridiculously long respawn timers -Arbitrary delays between button press and skill activation -Maps which give a glaring advantage to one side If you were looking for a fun, fast paced action romp, look elsewhere.

    P2W, unbalanced beyond believe. They should change name of the game to "Get Cards, BOMB spawn point". Don't listen to ppl saying its skill based game. ATM most players use 2-3 OP classes. Remember martyr perk form COD? Well they build whole class around this lovely mechanic. Avoid at all cost.

    Not great, but better than the mediocre shooters out there on the market. Easy to pickup and learn, except there people in the game who do play like they've never touch a computer

    Tons of **** in the game, no communication or coordination from teams at all. Takes a lot of grinding to be able to play competitive mode, or better yet, get a decent character. Almost P2W

    Random number generator cash shop ruins this game.

    Very close to being P2W with silver or better cases.

    Hours of grinding to get some cases of lead is counter productive especially when I don't own the character.

    A truly terrible game that borrows a bit too heavily from Team Fortress 2 and doesn't offer any innovative features to speak of. The cash shop is certainly an innovative way to make money from players, but it doesn't actually benefit the players themselves in any measurable way.

The cash shop is certainly an innovative way to make money from players, but it doesn't actually benefit the players themselves in any measurable way. To get the best the game mechanics have to offer, you have to spend at least $20, so it really isn't free to play - who wants to spend hundreds of hours grinding for the extremely low chance to get something that they don't already have? This game is nothing but a series of poorly concealed attempts to milk money from the player, and the actual gameplay is nothing new or different, since Team Fortress has been around since the 90s.… Expand

    My experience with Dirty Bomb thus far shows me that while Splash Damage has certainly learned a thing or two from their experiences with the disasterious Brink, they still have a lot of work to do.

Dirty Bomb reminds me most closely of their original smash success, Enemy Territory- and that is a very good thing, but still suffers from common problems endemic to modern team shooters, most egregiously the unforgiving damage model. While you are better able to hit enemies shooting from the hip then most other FPSs, the inconsistent network speeds common to a beta game combined with split-second-bang-your-dead damage means you will be staring at that reinforcement timer a whole hell of a lot. Dirty Bomb commits further sins by freely distributing wide-radius, near-instant kill explosive attacks to several of its playable characters, eliminating a large degree of skill from most engagements. Dirty Bomb is designed around fast-respawning waves of players and quick deaths, but boneheadidly welds this with objective-based maps and class-based loadouts, and further layers on daily grind quests and randomized progression hinged on ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ "booster packs" obtainable for real money, leaving the whole experience feeling cheap, indecisive and ultimately unrewarding. I wanted to like Dirty Bomb, but it needs help, and quickly. Step one I think will be to drop the Nexon association before it turns into a game worthy of their name: a forgettable one.… Expand

    2018 Old familiar faces VETERAN CHEATER who have been around since the closed alpha of NEXON Cheat are still around, probably the only people who keep the game alive. Thought after Nexon gave up the game it will get better.

    Why I can't recommend this game: - poor server performance - Lagger & Lagghacker - Cheater - Bunnyhop / hop around - Players who don't know how to use a mouse    2018 Old familiar faces VETERAN CHEATER who have been around since the closed alpha of NEXON Cheat are still around, probably the only people who keep the game alive.

    Why I can't recommend this game:

    - poor server performance
    - Lagger & Lagghacker
    - Cheater
    - Bunnyhop / hop around
    - Players who don't know how to use a mouse + keyboard.
    - many kill fixed players, no team play, objectives etc.
    - DLC's with advantages

    What is POSITIVE about this game:

    + Gameplay itself is pretty good
    + Graphics is pretty good
    + Classes are relatively balanced    … Expand

    Dirty Bomb is an addictive game. Even though I was often handed my ass on a platter by gamers with more skill, I was still enjoying myself for much of the time.

    While Brink sits in history as a game that tripped on its path to fame, Dirty Bomb will be fortunate to be remembered at all.

    Dirty Bomb is off to a great start, offering a blend of fast-paced team-based action that I hadn’t realised I’ve been missing since the glory days of Enemy Territory.
