I tried Crysis Demo,the graphical bugs are getting worse so thats out of the question.

I tried UT3 but even on average difficulty its hard to get any good since the AI is friggin' godlike and i can't sneak or crouch so i can't kill a single guy with coming out half-dead (Though i'm a n00b to UT3)

I HATE HATE HATE Call of Duty so DON'T even recommend any of them,not a fan of ANY Linear FPS really...

Pick up The Orange Box. Has some great stuff on it. You also sound like you are into Single-player FPS's more than the multiplayer. A patch will come out for Crysis soon, and I highly reccomend it. There are so many cool ways to take down enemies in that game, and it has a sandbox editor.

Also how about Elder Scrolls Oblivion, it's a fantasy FPS/RPG and it's more like GTA than anything.

There are not many non-linear FPS games, so suck it up. Bioshock is great and so are the half life games. You need to play STALKER if you want non-linear, it is great and also has RPG elements.

Indestructible, I ordered my PC and you have one very similar, I'll help you out.

Far Cry is an awesome FPS that's 100% open-ended. It has great graphics (even though it's almost 4 years old) and has awesome stealth mechanics. It is an awesome experience, to say the least. STALKER was also supposed to be open-ended. You also may find somethning to like in Oblivion, not a shooter, but an open-ended F-rst person game nontheless.

I think it's a shame you dislike linear games so much, because Half-Life 2 is just exactly that, and ifyou haven't experienced that game, then I pity you.

i don't like linear FPS'es.

Indestructible2


Good luck to you then.

P.S.: does a game called Dark Messiah which has an almost completely linear campaign but with character leveling and a few small choices count as non-linear? Even if it didn't, just play it. It's good fun.

Depends on what u want for non linear game, most non linear games have a linear storyline and most of non linear shooter with non linear story suck except for STALKER (probably the only one) Also try demos of linear games (usually more cinematic) cuz if not it will ve extremely difficult for you to find a good game

BTW no STALKER demo

Give Crysis another try, changing textures, quality, water, drivers...because u dont know what u are missing especially if u want nonlinear....

Also try Far Cry

Try Online shooters such as FEAR MP (free)or practice at UT because itll be fun once u adapt to the uber fast gameplay at it

I undesrtand u dont like

are you serious how isHL2generic?.... riddick is linear, how is that generic.i hated bioshock, but how is that generic?there are so many linear games that tell stories better than movies. hl is the farthest thing from generic.... its created its own world, and clearly has found motivation from novels like 1984 and Nabokov's bend sinister.linear does not mean generic, it means relating to a straight line. and i called you a **** because you ask for peoples opinions and sit there and rip on them because they didnt"correctly" read your forum... **** spare me from your nonsense.dont be a **** and u wont be called one.

Good call. This game is kinda sloppy but if the Thread Kreator is tired of the standard FPS then he may enjoy this one. I don't believe there is a demo for it, unfortunately.

Someone has allready posted about Oblivion. It can be played from a 1st person perspective (my favorite), has a linear story but you are not tied to it, you can explore the entire world and do as you please, the level of difficulty is adjusted to your current lvl, and it has plenty of quest and monsters to kill. The only thing that i dont know is if the creator of this thread likes the Swords, Bows and Magic as a weapon. Or reading and thinking to do the quests.

Half-life 2 is one of the best games ever made, let alone the best fps game. I employ you to try it again. But like the others said, play like Stalker, or Deus Ex.

stalker was horrible. orange box is where its at for the fps Noob(yeah i called you a noob) portal is instantly accessible and a wildly different fun take on the genre. tf2 is a great multiplayer shooter that after 10 or so hours you can be proficient in and half life 2 episode 2 is the least linear half life to date. if that doesnt work try battlefield 2142, easy to level up and get kills but it has really great depth and teamwork

If you think linear means generic, then you're missing out on a LOT of great games like Orange Box. But who am I to change your mind...

Anyway, if you want a non-linear FPS, the best you're gonna get is probably Crysis. Give it another try, if you still hate it go with Far Cry or STALKER.

I never said i hate Crysis,i just hate the graphical glitches,they're getting worse everytime i play the demo it seems like.

But if The Orange Box IS really that good,i'll give it a shot i guess.

Please but this game. When I get my new computer, I am definitely gonna get it. Hell, I played through Half-Life 2 on my orignal Xbox, the textures are lousy and the framerate usually dips way below 30. It's like playing HL@ on a Pentium 3 w/ 512mb RAM and onboard GFX. But I LOVED that game!

Okay, people in this thread (including the OP) need to take five and calm the hell down. You guys are pissing all over each other for no reason. That being said, I recommend the following: - S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - Bioshock - Dark Messiah of Might & Magic (linear, but gives you some flexibility in how you play) - Arx Fatalis - Clive Barker's Undying (mostly linear, but definitely keeps you thinking about your next move) - Boiling Point: Road to Hell Good luck!
