I got forwarded th is YT by a mate and can’t help to think what has happened since

Dirty Bomb 2012

Development happened.

That footage reminds me too much of your typical military FPS. I much prefer DB’s current tone (for lack of a better way to put it) compared to the gritty one in the video.

I wish they would just release the long version of bridge as another map.

Wish I could like and agree to your comment like 15 times.

There isn’t a ton different between that video and the current game really. The gun sounds are pretty different and the visuals look more grey. (prefer the current anyway)

The map is a lot longer, would be cool to have a different game mode for longer maps maybe.

Other than that its mostly the same game.

Yep.

Not to mention a lot of it probably didn’t work, it’s pre-alpha. Probably filled with bugs and balance issues, so it’s understandable when most of it changes

Don’t forget the old version of Chapel, where you could go inside the Chapel. Would love to play that.

Are there pictures of it somewhere? I’ve never seen it

There was a video of some old alpha player on youtube which had it. Was about 2 hours long where he was playing the old Chapel and Bridge and stuff but Nexon got it taken down unfortunately just a few months ago. Took me ages to find it but it’s just static now with some “Nexon USA removed this for copyright something something” which is pretty annoying.

The EV used to do a full loop around the map. It used to drop down to the bottom level passed where the two objective delivery points are, then turn right and do a loop back around towards the start of the map from memory.

The old Chapel looked more fun though. There used to be another secondary objective (I think a wall?) mid map where the chapel is, and you had to blow it up or open a gate or something I think, but you used to be able to go inside the Chapel and exit through a window to get towards the enemy spawn. It looked pretty fun.

It looks a lot cooler but darker. Why did they even change it to be so simple?

I miss those days :frowning:

If only we could have a mix of current, light-hearted, funny/dorky Dirty Bomb with fast movement/gameplay, and Extraction’s/Alpha graphical fidelity, maps, effects, sounds (like DE.50 not sounding like a goddamn peashooter[even though it is one]) or even just tiny things such as a working C4 display…that would be the best imho

Damn, the video showed me a Dirty Bomb that I didn’t want to play. Seriously, it felt like Brink just had sex with Battlefield. The map was too long, it’s full of “push the EV and blow the barrier and push the EV and rob the drugs and push the EV…” and etc.

Our version of Dirty Bomb is better. The maps are simple, the objectives are clear and fast, there’s no class-based and now it’s hero/merc-based, and it’s more like Call of Duty with Overwatch’s humor and graphics. It feels more casual, but still competitive. And it’s faster, and it fits into DB playstyle, while the Pre-Alpha is more into good aim (which it STILL is now, but there’s ‘less’ emphasis on aimming and more about speed and teamwork).

Overall: I like our Open Beta Dirty Bomb, not the Pre-Alpha one. AND IT’S JUST MY THOUGHT, DON’T TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!

the sniper sound is fücking terrifying

also smg9 present sound is better and i just like the current DB

the old DB looks more like killzone…
which i also like…

That trailer looked too grey imo. Makes everything look more boring and dull. I much prefer the way it looks now.

That looks a lot less fun to be honest.
