It is a third-person shooter game where players take on the role of a clone in the gladitorial sport of the future. The objective it to try to destroy the opposing teams "moneyball", which is a round ball full of money. The moneyball hovers in the middle of a teams base and is shielded. There are two teams, and hence two bases on the map, each base spawns bots. Only bots can take down the shield. So, the human players must assist their teams bots to the opposition's base where the bots can destroy the moneyballs shield. However, this is easier said than done, as the other team is also helping their bots toward your base, therefore, you have to use all of your chosen classes abilites to defeat your opponents and ultimately win the game & the fame! Overall this is an awesome addition to the action genre and a must have for everyone.
   Monday Night Combat has a few minor glitches that overall do not hinder gameplay. The reason a lot of people dislike the game is because it has a very steep learning curve and they do not take the time to learn and end up dying repeatedly because they charge the heavy class head on and wonder why they die. That said the classes are for the most part unbalanced but, like i said, if you take the time to learn them, then you can counter anyone playing any class. Hands down the best 3rd person multiplayer shooter available. For $10 its a steal!

The classes are fairly balanced. The maps are a almost replicas of each other with minor differences between each of them. On an upside I have noticed almost no bugs except a couple of Bots here and there catching on corners and impeading their slow progress across the map, but nothing to get worried about! Well worth the $15… Expand

   Well designed and adequately polished to at least warrant it's price tag, but like so many games, full of a wretched, unfriendly, unhelpfulWell designed and adequately polished to at least warrant it's price tag, but like so many games, full of a wretched, unfriendly, unhelpful and childish community screaming "umadbrah?!?!" Latency is good but guns seem to move pretty sloppily, even when fine tuned DPI-wise. Oh well, if you think TF2 moves too fast and lacks gravity, this is a much slower cousin, though I think we always hoped for something more in the middle. Cuz only 2 classes move quickly. And jump boosters last only a couple seconds so they aren't too useful. Co-op mode is pretty boring, if you can find an unstacked server (i've seen about 2 even matches in roughly 30) the vs mode can be pretty entertaining. Needs some balance patches to remove assassins instant kill button, but really, most games have some OP problems at release, time will tell if they show love for this game and improve it, or if they're done now that they've finally moved this 8 month old xbox game to PC port.… Expand

   this game was fun at release but no one plays it, most likely to do with the severe lack of maps. Save yourself some money and do not buy, gothis game was fun at release but no one plays it, most likely to do with the severe lack of maps. Save yourself some money and do not buy, go check steam stats to see how many people playing it, 120 peak per day, awesome. Oh and it has pretty much zero dota elements.… Expand

   Monday Night Combat is an unbalanced **** mess that's dead, if you want to play this you need to find friends or join a steam group.
   
   TheresMonday Night Combat is an unbalanced **** mess that's dead, if you want to play this you need to find friends or join a steam group.
   
   Theres no reason to play no one besides the Sniper and Assault, Gunner is just a slow target, same goes for Tank, Support can maybe help but even then he's next to useless without airstrike and firebase spam and Assassin dies in one hit.
   
   The game's sequel while F2P is a million times better, no one hit ****
   
   The atmosphere is amazing along with blitz, the game's only strong points.
   
   Overall skip this **** and play the F2P sequel.… Expand
