Recommend me a fast FPS

[warren_1979]

Get Quake 3. Don't know what the community is like nowadays though.

 

[::: CooliceT ::]

Wow, thanks for the info HangTime, will consider it



Yes, got bored of BF2, ran for 2 miles then got shot in the back by a guy with a sniper in a building, didn't errreally like it much.

2142 I failed to understand which drove me away from it. + its expensive hehe

Looking for a game to sharpen up my reactions a lot, find myself falling asleep and not fully wired into the game some of the time and its starting to get bad

JAFFA CAKE!!!! sorry, i love jaffa cakes, even named my cat after one.

anyway... dont give up on BF2. the whole reason i have that installed...
is PROJECT REALITY!!! if you dont have/never tried...

you must download that mod for it. you'll never look back

 

[Jaffa_Cake]

Why do you hate CS:S so much?

I appreciate the way you asked that. Was expecting 'wtf? CSS is the pwn'

I find CSS too slow for my liking, sneaking very slowly around corners standing still to kill people is just not the way I enjoy playing. I found the only way I get kills is by using the SMGs and flying around corners lol. Kinda screws me up when I see an enemy and dance all over the place by default reaction, doesn't help

Jaffa Cakes rooole.

Been looking at project reality and not very impressed, looks like the same BF2 with modified models.

Thats Quake III Arena right? I found 6 odd different versions and I have no idea which one lol

 

[HangTime]

that ez quake is realy good, or is it called fquake? same thing i think.

Fquake is a more complete package including lots of extras like maps, textures, bots (AI opponents not cheats!) etc. However the latest version of Fquake doesn't include build 1.8 of ezquake which was released last week and has quite a few enhancements.

Best option may to be install Fquake then latest ezquake over the top.

I think he means because there are various versions of Q3 available, such as the expansion pack Team Arena, and various compilation packs.

Soldier of fortune 2

[truebluecfc]

MOH:Allied Assault is still the best FPS out with the most exciting & tense matches ever which i luved playing, just a shame DMW the anti-cheat, Clanbase.com and all the hackers ruined it, died in 2005 for me and many.

I've got a similar problem, MOHAA was the only game i ever played a lot therefore i find it hard to go to other games. COD2 is pretty good actually but im waiting for MOH:Airborne and in the meantime playing C&C3.


PS: CS:S does idd suck a lot and its so easy to be good in it.

 

[drunkenmaster]

CS:S, there are far to many wuss gits in it that do the sneaking thing. going slower, crouching does increase accuracy as does slow firing and tbh thats fine, thats fairly realistic. but i couldn't give a crap how stupid my team is, that game is ALL about the rushing. anyone not rushing around playing it a la doom/quake is just crap with the reactions of a sloth.

what people still don't get is, if the whole team simply never once stands still and the other team does, you win. people sneak, then sneak into the room they must get into where the opposing team is camping and waiting in various positions for you to walk into that exact spot and bam. if you run like a maniac, get to places before they can camp them, move faster than the expect, not predict where you are then you have the advantage.

i HATED CS as first because as with most games your first games you mimic how others play. CS sucks though because of massive massive levels of cheating. problem is people get good at cheating, learn how to make it look like they aren't, also keeping an eye on admins going into spec mode so they can check on them and they stop and lose a couple rounds till admin starts playing again. its a joke.

sof2 was very similar, some losers who camp but a lot of fast action, don't think anyone plays anymore though


UT used to be good but i haven't picked it up in ages.

bf2142 is another one, i left it for a while, finally got it, play it in a way that seems completely different to everyone else and make of it what i can. i was also , at first a little bit like, wtf am i doing, defending the ships, working out tactics and took a few hours before i got into it and its really not a bad game. it doesn't lend itself to the same feeling of pace as other games but doesn't stop me running around like a psycho

with a lot of games its more about finding servers with like minded goals, than specifically the speed of the game. you can have some retarded servers of UT/CS/BF2 or anything with a map full of camping snipers, or a bunch of people who simply charge at full pace with shotguns and cause mayhem. main issue is, there are cheaters in all games

for instance the latest server i've been playing CS:S on is abunch of people who joke around on their mic's, generally are all rushers, admin on most of the time and who slaps idiots who camp for too long. most irritating thing for me is some idiot whose last on their team and they camp. its boring waiting for some idiot to die. if i'm the last guy left i just rush whatever the objective is so people aren't waiting and bored. the server i've been on lately agrees and kills/kicks people who just slow it down to much.

 

[Curio]

Any of the Quake games. Quake2 is the "slowest" but probably the best, IMO. Problem is, there aren't many people playing Quake nowadays and (as mentioned) the learning curve is harsh. But for pure skill based on reflexes, accuracy and anticipation, Quake games are top of the pile by far. People who can't stand the pace end up playing CS, BF or UT ( JOKE )

 

[Calexico]

I would say Tribes 2, very fast and skillful, but its pretty much dead so i won't
Maybe play on one of the CS:S alternative gameplay servers? Or how about HL2DM? I got serious pwned trying to play it lastweekend, but theres some CTF servers for it aswell now where you tend not to die so quickly. TF2 looks like it will be fast also.

 

[XtAsY]

For fast paced gamplay, I don't think UT2004 can be beat

 

[steve258]

Half Life 2 Deathmatch definately - can't get any faster than that.

You would like Call of Duty 2 Multiplayer too if you enjoyed Medal of Honor.

 

[Fubsy]

PAINKILLER.

 

[Jaffa_Cake]

Thanks for all your suggestions, havn't had painkiller yet. I will go look at it.

I do like CoD2 quite a lot, finding it hard to get attatched though. Didn't like HL2 dm much ( lol ) I'm so picky I do like quake though.

You guys need to join a CAL team, and then play. To be "good" at css takes a lot more than reactions. You need to think properly, tactics are a huge part in matches, for example, delay rushing, splits, distractions etc.

You think css is easy to be good at? Hmmm...

@ drunkenmaster, rushing works yes but there are many situations where you play it out at a slower pace, testing/luring enemies out etc. When you get to a higher level of playing css is very very different to your average pub playing.

 

[churned]

CSS requires very fast reactions. Just because you have to use a certain amount of tactics doesn't mean it doesn't require fast reactions.

 

[Jaffa_Cake]

No need for the bandwagon CSS arguement, its not my cup of tea, same with truebluecfc. But. I'm not going to start and arguement because it isn't needed, please jump off your high-horses CSS players, its not the best game in the world.

CSS please play me at moh

Gonna go have a test drive with ezquake/fquake. Will report back.

i truly love people that insist a game is harder than they think because those other people can't possibly have played a real game or really be good. the fact is that rushing does work, in basically every single situation. there are some balances to be had, sometimes you see the room ahead has 10 guys to kill and you realise you are on your own so you choose a different route. but a good play simply changes his route, rushes around the back and catches them offguard from somewhere they aren't expecting. yes some rounds you want to get to certain positions and ambush people depending on their tactics. but never EVER have i once seen in any match the stupid little guy doing crouch walking around the whole map on his own sneaking around win consistantly. its a terrible tactic, leaves you on your own being attacked and vunerable from all sides, it slows the game down and if its the last guy left and takes a while to find is incredibly irritating. the main reason rushing works is so SO many people are simply so scared of dying that you run into a room of 10 enemies and on lie, every time 5 will turn and run because they don't want to die yet. the chaos of people running everywhere evens up the odds a lot and a GOOD player can take 2-3 out, maybe 5. to many people think staying alive to the end of a round is winning, so many people want a 5-1 rather than a 15-10 score because they are idiots.
