In conclusion, then: Loadout is a riot. Loadout is free. It does not, however, provide a model that is conducive to me wanting to spend any money on it. The loadouts of the name are fun to make, but ultimately lack the variety they believe themselves to have. These things seems like a failure for a free to play game, but perhaps I am simply not its cash audience. Perhaps I am just one of the players it wants to come aboard for no pennies, to fill its servers and to talk about the game to the people who listen. Maybe that's you.

Loadout will take you on a full filled ride along with an in-depth customization system. You won't believe you are getting this for free.

Loadout is really fun and easy to play shooter; it has lots of content, especially for being so simple at its core. Admittedly, there’s not much to do once you’ve unlocked enough weapon upgrades, but it shows true potential. As of now, it looks great and plays great, and you really can’t beat the free price tag. If you’re looking for a fast shooter to hold you out until the big guys show up later this year, Loadout is definitely worth a download.

Loadout attempts to compete with Team Fortress 2 at its own game, and it performs admirably thanks to great weapon customization options, strong map design, and a generous free-to-play setup that charges mostly for cosmetics. But the matchmaking system is straight-up broken, leading to frequent frustrating mismatches, and its four maps aren’t enough to keep me around for long.

Loadout is a more cartoonish version of Team Fortress 2 with better weaponscrafting

Loadout is an arena style shooter that makes a good first impression. One thing you notice immediately are the controls, they’re fantastic. Everything from the aiming to the movement of your character is spot on, making your mouse and keyboard feel like an extension of your thoughts. They almost never get in the way of the action, something that even the most big budget and focus tested games can’t claim to. After that first match though, Loadout’s enjoyment only seems to decline the more you play and the occasional highpoint that follows is brought down by a lack of content and insane micro t...

There are so many online shooters these days that some companies can't even give them away – just ask Icelandic outfit CCP Games about the popularity of its PlayStation 3 experiment DUST 514. With the space utterly dominated by blockbuster brands like Battlefield and Call of Duty, you'd think that smaller studios such as Edge of Reality – the team behind Activision's recent mechanical misfire Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark – would be eager to avoid a skirmish with said seasoned series. Loadout, however, is not backward about coming forward, hopping into the PlayStation 4 firefight with p...

The focus on unique weaponry and customization at the moment provides Loadout with a degree of compulsive appeal. But without Annihilation mode, it’s debatable whether there is any long-term depth on offer here. Loadout is fun to play in short bursts and you can usually afford a significant upgrade to one of your weapons after every second match. On the other hand, the slightly floaty feel to the combat means that people who are serious about their shooters may find it doesn’t quite scrat...
