shooter games are not realistic.....

shooter games are in no way realistic. because if you get shot in real life, you usually bleed and lose health over time. maybe they should have your health go down little by little after you get shot or at first, your armor is decreased. like in perfect dark zero. i just think that would totally change the way you think while playing. anyone else agree?

I'd rather games be less like real life and more of a get away; plus, if games were too much like real life, then I really wouldn't be interested in playing them.doomsoth

lol then after a couple hits, you'd then go to a hospital? and have to wait a few weeks before playing again? :P

or is that too realistic?

Sounds like you might enjoy S.T.A.L.K.E.R.RK-Mara

does it do some of that stuff in that game?fnevaeva

No, shooters are not terribly realistic, and one that was probably wouldn't be very much fun to play.

health in mgs games drains after you get shot until you put a bandage over it. i guess mgs is the most realistic gaming series ever...

Like RK-Mara said, you sound like you would like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. You need to eat, take medication for radiation poisoning, and bandage wounds so that you don't bleed to death. Bandages won't heal you either, you need Med kits for that. Also if you plan on sprinting somewhere you won't be able to for long, and will need to use an Energy drink to restore your stamina.

There are multiple ammo types for weapons, some with better armor piercing capabilities and ranges than others. Your guns also tend to jam, and you'll need to replace them often as they'll wear down the more you use them, the same goes for your armor. Also don't plan on taking very many hits either, because it'll only take a few shots from an enemy for you to die.

So if you've got a decent enough PC, I'd recommend S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl, and if you enjoyed that S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky. Of course they aren't meant to be the most realistic FPS games ever (and certainly aren't in many aspects) but it sounds like you'd enjoy them.

In my opinion, the gamer chooses the game. If he want a fast paced game, then fast regeneration is the key. If the realistic is the key, then it mean´s a much slow paced game. For me, i prefer a faster fps game.

I think the original Resident Evils were actually the most realistic in terms of "damage systems"

Hear me out, haha...

Cause look- you take like4-5 bites, then you die, you can only take a few hits, be it being mauled or melee'd/ grabbed/smashed.

Resident Evil's setting isnt exactly real life material, but I think the damage system is one of the most realistic in games.

(not Re4-Re5)

Of course not, buy a gun and run around the woods and shoot chipmunks and frogs... now thats realistic.

Far Cry on the hardest setting is pretty blasted hard.. Bang bang -Load Checkpoint.thenidhogg

True that. Far Cry is a pretty hard game, regardless of the difficulty level imo. :P

I hate realistic games (gameplay-wise).

Since when did Shooters intend to be 100% realistic?Treflis

Since Operation Flashpoint was used in real military training.

Play ArmA with the Ace mod.

More realistic than platformers or even many RPGS...Vinolence

Believe me, through mods and updates that game was 100% realistic, it pretty much modled everything you could possibly imagine.

I think I would advise checking out STALKER aswell, but download "Oblivion Lost" for it... It is not so realistic that itll Pull your teeth out, but you do need to bandage, eat, sleep and have a limited amount of items you can carry (based on weight tho)

When talking about the Far cry games, I would say the first one was the better one...

CoD4 and CSS I wouldnt call remotely realistic (except thier weapon skins and envioments are regognicable)

sadly there were an old Multiplayer game I think would be appealing, AHL (based of AQ2) you had to bandage, bullets were VERY lethal (thank god for poor marksmen). It strived after "movie realism" and likely the best multiplayer game I ever playied

For crap sake. WHY do people want realistic games? At all??? I was under the impression the ENTIRE idea of games was to escape reality and do something crazy and nonsensical and most importantly, fun.

Who freakin cares if the gun youre shooting isnt the real color or doesnt have enough kick to it...seriously just give me power ups,ninja swords,RPGs, and somethin to blow up! I dont want a game where the graphics are so good i can see the hair on my squadmates buttcrack when he bends over to pick up a gun. I dont want to get tired after 5 secs of sprinting, i want to run at ninja speed and rip a donkeys head off while doing it.

NEXT MONTH RELEASE FOR XBOX/PS3/PSP/DS/PC :

Drive a car to work at 7am! Drink some coffay! Buy some groceries! Eat a stale hamburger!
