FPS games with best gunplay

Forget the story, graphics and all that jazz. Which game has the best gunplay (and isn't a straight up crappy game, either)

I'll start with one I always hear, F.E.A.R. 1

I agree with you, F.E.A.R has some really excellent gun play. The Call of Duty series is usually pretty good as well.

Hmm, I've always felt the guns in BLACK felt really good to fire; I'm actually looking forward to Bodycount quite a lot for that reason :D. The G36C as rendered by Criterion is a weapon I wish were more common in FPS titles.

Timesplitters: Future Perfect is pretty good too. And it's not an FPS, but Freedom Fighters has some really brutal-feeling weapons :D

Fusionmix

Doom 3

Wolfenstein

Stalker

Painkiller

Crysis for most realistic and Solider of Fortune 2 for the weapon choice and fun.

Crysis certanly has good graphics, but it's not realistic by a long shot, especially the first one.Took 10 bullets to the head to kill a guy.

Anyway, Half-Life 2 maybe? :P

Crysis

Arma2

COD2

FEAR1

Bad Company2

Counterstrike Source

Those have the best gunplay imo

Far cry 2. The guns are varied (IED's and a Flare gun and a dart gun AND a Flamethrower! Yay!), Fire has a physical presence and there is a slide mechanic.

unrealistic: urban haos riot response

realistic: ehh my money is actualy on Code of Honor 3.. like seriously its the only game that depicts toe famas properly (or at least closer to its true form) epic game its that easy.

Crysis for most realistic and Solider of Fortune 2 for the weapon choice and fun.

My vote goes to Counter-Strike: Source.

No headshots in Crysis? BS! I got like 500 of them in the campaign, so I don't know what you're talking about(I replayed the game a dozen times).

Doom 1 & 2

Half-Life + Deathmatch

Counter-Strike

Blood

Unreal Tournament '99

F.E.A.R.

Max Payne

CoD4 and BC2.

For more gunslingin' , CS:Source

F.E.A.R.

Unreal Tournament (any version)

No One Lives Forever (any version)

STALKER series by far, especially Call of Pripyat with its upgrading system. The only game that comes close imo is FEAR. I have a save filefrom justbefore I encounter a sole enemy who is facing in the opposite direction. I reloaded it like 15 times to kill him in the most spectacular ways. The Conduit gets a mention for its satisfactory gunplay with the pistol, the shotgun and the SCAR.

The Modern Warfare games are some of the best FPS games I played.

MW2 is good... but heard BFBC2 & Arma2 are also great..

Stalker has the best gunplay hands down. Its so rewarding to do 150m headshot with scopeless ak74 :)

Killing Floor
STALKER
Arma 2

Lately I would have to say DoD: Source. The strong recoil and general feel of the weapons feel very authentic to me. This, however, is personal taste. FEAR deserves a definite mention.

half life 2

the original far cry gets my vote, the actual shooting was very satisfying.

FEAR 1, STALKER, CoD1, UO, CoD2, No One Lives Forever for me. Also, a tie between Far Cry 1 & Crysis.

Anyway, Half-Life 2 maybe? :P

COD2

The original FEAR. The rule is in shooters the guns have to feel powerful and be loud.

As for Crysis, one shot to the head will kill a Korean. The reason shots to the chest dont kill is theyre wearing body armour from 10 years in the future.

FEAR did have some good gunplay, but I'm giving it to Crysis.DragonfireXZ95

Took one look at the thread subject and thought "this will quickly turn into an 8+ page Dakan-fueled thread about Crysis."

One thing about Crysis I didn't like is that if you throw the Ai off a cliff and he wasn't killed by the throw. He'll take no damage in Ragdoll mode. I wanted to be real evil and throw someone off a huge cliff. So I throw him, zoom in on his ragdolling body and start laughing evily. He then stands up from like a 5 story fall and starts walking into a wall infinitely...
