FPS Preferences and How can the FPS be improved?

Do you prefer the open world gameplay of the battlefield series or the tight quartered and smaller size maps of Call of Duty? How can developers improve the shooter genre so that there is more variety and an emphasis on teamwork?

I know this is a multi-tiered question but I was just curious. Personally, I like both but I think the teamwork aspect of the battlefield series can be alot more fun, depending on the situation and who you play with.

As for improving the genre, many complain today that the genre has gotten stale, old and everything is generic. So if you feel that way, how can it be improved? Personally I think a greater emphasis on teamwork and a larger variety of objectives and missions (like Titan Mode in bf2142) is the key to moving this genre along.

i have splinters in my arse. im sat on the fence. i like both

I don't really have a preference. I can enjoy Battlefield 2's 32v32 and then turn around and go play 4v4 on Halo. Your suggestion would only work in games with large player counts, and those already have a system like that in place.II-FBIsniper-II

Halo needs a run button.
