Your Favourite Features of Dirty Bomb

(JesseKomm) #1

I’ve been curious for a while now as to what everybody loves about Dirty Bomb that makes it unique and special to our hearts, so I decided to make this thread where everyone can share their personal love for the game and what they think is the coolest or best feature it has to offer. This can be anything in the game, whether it’s the loadout system, a specific merc, the weapon mechanics, the dialogue, whatever you can think of!

I’ll start off, I love… and I mean absolutely love, the immersion with Fragger’s grenade ability when cooking, the timer with his hand is probably the most brilliant way to have ever went about such a mechanic and it’s something I’ve never seen in any shooter before(Which grenade cooking is quite common). It just goes to show the attention to detail of just how much Fragger, as a character, is amazing at being a soldier and his experience with his equipment to perfectly time his grenades with his hand.

What are everyone’s favourite features of Dirty Bomb? You can post multiple features so don’t be shy if you can’t pick between a few!

Yeah, Fragger’s grenade countdown was one of those things that instantly caught my attention, as a new player.
It’s a nice touch, for sure.

For me, it’s probably the voice acting, in general. It’s well done and there are some genuinely funny lines in the mix.
My guilty pleasure is Phantom, and his silly voice acting.

First time playing Phantom, I was honestly expecting him to be 2edgy4me, but then he did what reminded me of the trademark Mr.Caffeine-sound, out of nowhere, and it made me chuckle.

Fragger making the grenade countdown with his hands is genius. I wish more mercs were able to mimic things with the hands, it just feels more alive. I’d love to see Fletcher occasionally snapping his fingers when you trigger sticky bombs for exemple.

That would be awesome for Fletcher! But yeah, it’s a shame more mercs don’t really have the possibility to have that level of immersion, it’s so amazing.

This. I love Phantom and his voice acting. <3
I find it amusing to listen his comments during the gameplay.
Also I find it enjoyable to listen what Phoenix and Vasilli have to say.

Movement, while a lot of the times long jumps fail me when I really need them, the movement feels fluid and probably one of the best and funnest movement system I saw in a game.
A close one is also gunplay which requires more then just the ability to click mouse button when you see an enemy and boom they’re dead, and also a lot of the times death won’t come as a surprise. Unless it’s a Vassili.

Speed, wall jumping, Fragger counting when cooking the grenade, weeeooweeooweeeoo, revive sprees, weapons tied to perks (even tho they could’ve done better job with this but I like the idea).

Kira is already enough for me to continue playing. :slight_smile:

Nah, really. DB is just a great game.
No pay2win, fast paced, regular content, oh and the RNG God is friendly, too.
Yesterday, I got a cobalt Aura from a regular case (finally)!

I love pretty much everything about the game. o:)

Vassili. Definetly, Vassili.

Fast paced. Objective-based. Nice merc variety with no rock-paper-scissors rules. High skill ceiling. No 1-2 hit kills except special abilities and sniper rifles. I adore the movement system. Walljumps are super fun.

Yeah, she’s just so enthusiastic. “Enemy spotted!”.

I think all the voice acting is great! Especially Vassili, and the hopefully upcoming Stoker. Apart from that, i love the melee weapons and the long jump / jumping in general! :smiley:

(Jurmabones) #20

The fact that there are voice lines specifically triggered by teabagging. Good move by the devs.
