Battlefield 2? Its the ONLY online FPS i play right now because frankly, everything in the last 2 years has been ****e, including bad company 2. I also like 2142.

You should be burnt at the stake. BC2 is awesome, albeit bloody annoying sometimes.

Metro 2033 was awesome but yes, I too am pretty bored with FPS titles. There hasn't been a good one for ages and I am totally ranked up on BC2 - which is awesome btw!
 
The battlefield series for me is the best , Followed by COD. Best of the lot i would say was BF1942 with the desert combat mod ,,,, where skills played more than hiding in grass etc.

Try Quakelive - it will pummel you into submission and have you begging for mercy. Experience utter humiliation the likes of which you will never know again. You will be a gibbering wreck after about an hour.

This would be my suggestion as well.

If you are a true FPS fan you should be able to handle the difficulty of Quake Live, which is a truly skill-based FPS game, unlike every other game in your list.

Some of those in your list are fun, but they are largely boring affairs. I will certainly be playing Crysis 2 when it comes out though.

Ok ****e perhaps a bit strong but its watered down tactically, with appaling balance, zero scope for competitive gameplay, zero teamplay, the glare effect is just a joke, v sync doesnt work, its horribly over crowded, no enough maps, hate the ridiculous hardcore bull**** (just give me hardcore weapon damage with a full UI FFS) no mod tools, having to pay for dedicated servers, cant limit classes so its a sniper fest, single player is crap. Too short unlock system.

Would you like me to go on? Riddled with bugs that will never get fixed.

Agree with a lot you say but snipers are easy meat for assault class, I love stabbing them in the neck as they stare down their scopes. :) I hope they add an overall commander again for BF3 if it ever appears to add more teamplay. I don't think the maps are overcrowded compared to Modern Warfare 2 as you can't stop to scratch your balls before the opposition has spawned about 20 yards away!

ANY rush level on 32 player is a crowded mess, MW2 was better in this regard, and at least these I was meant to be meeting players constantly. The game simply has zero teamplay outside of squads with friends, and often the level is so crowded I lose all sense of the objectives and it just turns into a run and gun deathmatch type of game as you can't stay alive long enough to actually take a flag. It is poorly concieved for PC, probably quite fun on console though.

Perhaps theres some sarcasm in there that im missing, but its so riddled with bugs and stupid design decisions that it' simply impossible for it to be enjoyed for a meaningful amount of time compared to previous games in the series.
 
COD2 MP on the DeD clan server running the FKMOD, you will get amazing CTF games with no campers and the FK mod is a great mod to play, server usually full every night so be patient to get in, it will be at least 75% full from noon each day

Yeah thats what my games are missing i believe SOF2 was a slightly slower version on quake and needed speed and aim to be any good at it which i had.
I think im gonna try quake live now.

I tried TF2...got bored
CS:S.......havent they fixed those hitboxes yet!

COD:MW/MW2 come close to the feel i like but its not as quick as what SOF2 was

Arma 2 i will try with the ACE mod but seems a slow tactical game but might be a nice change.

Failing that lot i'll install SOF2 if anybody up for a game?
 
ive been enjoying quake wars on ps3 :)

graphics are on the edge of being bad on ps3 but its a lot of fun.

was thinking of getting it for pc and getting better gfx. its an oldish game now but i havent ever heard people talking about it on pc?
 
didnt realise quake live was basically quake 2....love that game still play it now :D and even better now theres loads of people on it :D
 
Not Quake 2, Quake 3. Great game anyway, and its hit registration isn't completely broken unlike a lot of games (Source engine games and Bad Company 2).
 
I'm looking forward to bulletstorm thats just been announced (released 2011), purely because it's being made by epic + people can fly. Futuristic shooter could be awesome if it's a mix of ut + painkiller. Theres no trailer yet but will be keeping a watchful eye!

Never, ever, compare Quake to SoF again, please. Quake (World or Live) is the purist and most skilful deathmatch experience there is. SoF was good fun, but it was nowhere near it in any respect.

Nothing beats a Quake duel for 1v1 intensity and personal skill.
 
Completely agree here. Im bored to death of the current fps games. Being a deathmatch/ut kinda guy i haven't had a decent duel since ut99.
Bored bored bored of all the current fps's. We need a decent looking well created deathmatch fps to keep us entertained.. UT99 Live springs to mind.. :)

Quakelive is full of idiots.
