Dirty Bomb Beta Stress Test

I remember seeing a few posts on here about dirty bomb which is currently in closed beta and had been taken off steam for the last few weeks while they work on it more.
But its back for the next few days (and another test period in a few weeks) while they stress their comp matchmaking system and theres 100k beta keys available for new players, so if your interested check it out.

Personally I havent played it enough to have a real opinion on it, but the shooting/gun fights feels a bit loose right now. There is certainly a lot of potential though and the comp matchmaking is promising sign.
Also you get some kind of exclusive item if you take part in this stress test so there that.

I've tried it now for a couple hours, also streamed it and might stream a bit more in the future if you're interested in watching.

The game feels pretty good, only problem I have is having some fps/stutter problems but I was playing with everything on high so I guess that can be solved. Also the movement feels kinda clunky at times. But the game concept is pretty cool. the classes really reming me of enemy territory which is still one of my favorite games of all time so thats a great thing

VortexThe game is a lot of fun, but the auto-aim is pretty game breaking. There's recoil on automatic weapons, but if you're hitting someone it controls the recoil for you. So why is there recoil in the first place?

Vortexthere's definitely aim assist when you're shooting people

i can hold m1 across the map and not miss

No, there isn't. I've been playing this game since alpha and there has never been auto-aim or aim assist.

if theres anybody who hasn't gotten a key yet i streamed it for like 2 hours or something. It's pretty fun actually, i played a variety of classes, my favorites were the fragger and the sniper guy.

EDIT: it seems like a game that is really vanilla, no gimmicky recoil shit really fast paced awesome gameplay and the movement isn't clunky at all. I didn't even start to get into the cool movement tricks you can do off walls and such.

About the f2p model, I'm not sure if progression is sped up for this or not but I won like 12k points in my first game and it only takes 7200 to unlock a merc. If it stays like that this will be one of the best f2p models in recent history.

The actual gameplay is quite good but pubs don't do it justice. I've played some 5v5 pugs before the NDA lift and it was great even with 120 ping to Europe. If the MM in this game is anything like CS or Dota where people for the most part try/comm then I can see this game taking off.

I've been playing quite a bit over the weekend and liking it a lot. Movement speed is pretty fast, you can wall jump and all the weapons are really accurate, even when moving and jumping. Iron sights are practically useless, nothing more than a zoom unless you have a sniper rifle. Your team is your only source of health and ammo and you run out pretty fast, so you're pretty reliant on your team. The game modes are a kind of mix between attack/defend, payload and one-way ctf. Prolonged stale mates are rare in the pubs I've played, probably due to the low player count and little explosives.

Is anyone else getting worse performance in this beta phase? It feels like 30 FPS and I'm getting constant short freezes.

I realized it overwrote everything including the FPS config I had, but even putting the config back in it doesn't feel much different.

i hope honestly that there main way of making money of this game is cosmetics, at the same time however, I hope the still support the game with balance changes and new mercs.

Ahh, that was it, thanks.

Fixed my FPS, but I'm still getting the occasional freezes for whatever reason.

Edit: seems to have fixed itself.
