I REALLY need an online FPS

CSS, cheap massive amount of servers I've wasted years on it, and only really play office :p

Il take you down to funky town on any office server :p:D

Definately get css and most importantly TF2. Solely play TF2 at the moment as it is more fun than css, more unpredictable, great team game where every different class can win or lose a game, and most importantly, hardly any hackers ever. Css is full of hackers it's horrible these days, but I still go back for some office pwnage :D

Plus these steam games would run well on a P133mhz + voodoo 1 ;)
 
I can't say I notice many cheaters on CS:S. You'll find loads on 1.6 though. Well if there are loads of cheaters, they suck :p
 
If i were you id get the orange box (css, tf2, hl2 etc) and BF2 as both are cheap now.

All are class games, and the games that come on orange box in my opinion are the best ever made!
 
TF2 gets my vote :)

All the things you asked for there:
-large player base
-mix of players
-strategy
-not too serious
-pretty cheap (about £12 on steam, or buy the orange box for about £22)
 
Another one for TF2 here - plus if you get orange box tyou get a couple of other games to keep you busy.

Although i did play BF2 non stop for about 2 years
 
TF2 is awsome I recently just started playing it again its great, games like UT2004 or CSS I'm so annoyed if I'm doing **** in it but TF2 takes that away and its always fun its just great :D.
 
Dont forget BF2142 if you want a slightly newer and less bug ridden / cheat infested game :p & it has better graphics and no dolphin diving!

Not that theres not cheaters in 2142 but since release i have seen i think 2 ppl hacking!! :)

Teamwork / strategy / CQB / Good vehicles = FUN !

BTW - FOR BF2 or 2142, you really need 2Gb RAM.
 
BF2 is still and will be the best online FPS game until dare i say it the illusive BF3 comes out.
God how much do i want BF3 now, so bored with every other FPS attempt.
 
I wouldn't recommend CSS now. I used to play at a reasonably high standard but I jumped on a for a quick blast the other day after not playing for a while and got absolutely pumped. The standard is ridiculously high and its a steep learning curve.

Get TF2, its so much fun. Certainly doesn't take itself too seriously and the strategic element is up there with the best. Don't let the cartoony graphics put you off (I almost did) they fit the game perfectly. Its my game of the year.

yes man, its so cool

i cant stop playing Goldrush
 
TF2 is def a better choice for someone to pick up as a new game. I liked BF2 when I played it back in the day (when it first game out) but attempts to go back to it have been pretty rubbish to be honest. Some people like CSS..I personally think it's awful...But I didn't like CS1.6 either so that's not too much of a surprise.

QuakeLive is probably due to go open beta soonish so that could be a nice free game to pick up. It'll be filled with people who're amazing at it though.
