Fps are like lightgun games now only one way cant even get lost.nojumplmao

who wants to get lost? I hate games like that.There is a part in HALO CE towards the end that gets all "maze like" and I hated it..finally got out but that ONE part I hate..otherwise perfect game..Most fps I play you can run around everywhere. Sure the action is in designated areas that you follow but thats how a game progresses..I dont want to run around for 3hrs trying to find what to do..thats what Zelda is for..lol

i never got lost on halo it directs you where to go the library all the area's looked the same though so thats why you got lost. Why do you want a fps not to have any exploration? Why do you want a rollercoaster ride?

There is so much you can do in fps besides just shooting guns it's sad. Like watching the monsters fight each other in quake 2 if one accidentally shoots another lol.

Oh yeah, that was epic, sometimes you could just provoke them and conserve the ammo :D!

Why do I keep getting the feeling that two of the people here with opposing viewpoints are one and the same person?

Weird. Eh? :lol:

Perhaps.

But, my instincts are spot-on a lot of times.

better question why do you want to play a platfomer turned fps? just dont do much for me..Unless its UT,Quake,ect multiplayer..Like I stated..im a human, I cant jump 30' in the air,I dont jump from shelf to shelf,I dont want much of that in my fps games..Ever play the first Ghost Recon? Medal of Honor Spearhead,Rainbow6"before it became a normal fps?"...that is what i like normally. You seem to have a very hard time accepting a difference in opinion?why?

My problem with FPS today is the level design, ever since Call of Duty 4 it has been popular to make every FPS a bloody corridor shooter. Its like I don't mind that type of game in moderation like everything else, but throw me a Serious Sam 3 or STALKER more often too.

Still better than hotkey-spamming MMORPG.

Mr_BillGates

And yet an MMORPG is about twice as hard to learn and be good at compared to the average FPS game. Don't believe me? Go get a 2200+ Rating in Arena in World of Warcraft. Not to mention you're managing CD's and on average 10-20 abilities depending on class.

inb4 "WoW is easy scrub blah blah casualized"

Yup, WoW has become casualized, but it's still harder than most console FPS games. So what does that say about FPS games this gen?

Thats one part of it, loadouts means you spawn with fav weapon and dont have to learn any other and biggest of all is it takes very little damage so a superior player cant turn around and fire back because hes already dead.

I love how the "elite" come in and try and down play everything people like. in other words everything "POP"..if you dont like something be it videogame,music,tv,movie,clothes ect...then move on..do your own thing. BUT why care what others find enjoyment in? Will you only be truly happy when everyone follows you into your perfect world? My god..its nothing more than a f&*( videogame guys..lol..

Lol! No matter how popular Justin Beiber gets he wont kill off other types of music, suits dont kill off jeans and t shirts. Maybe youve been living under a rock but its not the same with games. Casualization has killed the arena fps for instance, all thats left is Quake live with its outdated graphics. If more people found enjoyment in arena fps then I'd have more games to choose from.

OH..I see...so because people dont like to play oldschool arena shooters they are ignorant sheep? So what about other genres of games? None have the pull they once had. WHY? because games like cod/moh/halo ect are fun to people.SO WHAT?? if you want to play your old game,go play..but dont put down others likes just because you pissed people and the industry have moved on.

When did I call casual gamers ignorant sheep? Where did I put anyone down? I dont want to play old games, I want a modern arena fps.
