This is exactly what we need if we want to increase the competitive scene of the game.
What do you want to see in Dirty Bomb?
No iron sights
60+ fps and matching animation (quake wars took a hit for capping animation at 30fps)
adjustable FOV
same game mechanic as W:ET
Simplistic weapons
Non-hindering sprint (not just forward, can shoot while sprinting)
No bonuses for things like getting high killing sprees/streaks
No advantageous benefits for people who pay money
Wolf ET hitsounds or the ability to change to those hitsounds
Ability to fine tune settings
Good movement speed (so I donât spend 5 minutes getting to the enemy to spend 5 seconds in combat before dying)
Competitive combat rather than luck based (i.e. accurate weapons, weapons donât kill too fast)
Theyâve mentioned in several places that DB will absolutely not be pay-to-win, so money is never going to buy an advantage.
More developers seem to be taking this stance. Hopefully the days of P2W games are coming to an end.
As for what Iâd like to see in DB: Stats galore. Itâs trivial next to other features of the game of course but I do love me some stats to look at and compare.
body parts, not gibs but parts. get shot somewhere and it falls off.
shot in the leg you hop. arm, gets trickier. heres a video i made to explain better.

Yes pay to win is a big no no. The other thing that irritates me about the free to play model is - take say⌠Planetside 2 or Tribes Ascend, if you pay the cost of a normal game ÂŁ30-40 you only unlock some of the content. I hope SD consider adding an âunlock allâ feature to Dirty bomb at a reasonable price.
Hasnât every developer said that.
That doesnât mean I think DB will be pay-to-win.

Yeah this will be completely up in the air. Iâve yet to see a free to play FPS that hasnât been like this.
Usually they have an unlocking system where you can pay to get levels unlocked but DB devs have come out and said this game will not be a stats unlocking game. Only thing I can think of is customizing your characters.
Iâve already dropped $30 so I hope I get whatever purchases come out.
Replying to my own post because Tribes Ascend today added a single purchase option which unlocks all the content for the game. Its also cheaper if you are a VIP (have previously purchased something from the game). Maybe this is because the micro-transactions have dried up - but I still feel that they should have had this option from the start (as should DB).
Ability to physically kick or push like in et. So if someone gets in your way you can push them out the way or push an enemy off the top of a building to their death.
i really want this. and they know i want this, and you know they know i know you know i want it. well push anyway.
I think their needs to be at least 5 maps ready to play when Dirty Bomb finally goes public, that way people wonât get bored and put off people playing.
I would like to see;
Configs, so i can easily bind my classes and other cvars
callvotes; maps,kick player,ref, load comp settings, load public settings, SPECLOCK, teamlock, +MVALL
ability to adjust FOV
prime nades
no iron sights, make it 100% hipfire, except sniper
obj, DM, TDM, CTF would be nice. make sure obj is balanced spawn times
bring back a the panzer, bring back med needles
add spectate and record option
it would also be nice to have people of the community add mods and maps so an SDK would be sweet.
OSP FTW!!!
I would like the ability to make custom maps so that i can contribute to the game and community.
meh, so did r5 with Firefall, didnât stop them from selling advantage in PvP⌠What a developer says and what they do can be completely different things.
