Recommend me a FPS Multiplayer

[R.P.L]

Bad Company 2 - I wouldn't say it's got a 'good community' but there are still plenty of people playing it, and it's still a great game which looks fantastic IMO.

Quake Live for a bit of proper old school challenging fun.

Both of these games have been out for a long time, so of course you'll have a long way to go to catch up with the good players (potentially impossible with QL due to how long the game has been around in one form or another, and the very high skill ceiling), but at the same time neither has a huge unlock system (there's none at all for QL) which would make it unfair towards new players.

Crysis 2 if it's still alive.

cod2 or cod 4 still more popular than bf3 or almost anything else

csgo is pretty decent .

i wouldn't advise bf3 and if my other origin games wernt with my bf3 with premium id of gave it away months ago like all my friends.

 

[trentlad]

If he doesn't have BF3 already then he'll probably hate it.

Unfortunately they keep nerfing different weapons so instead of being a fun game of combat, it's a game of who knows which weapon isn't nerfed.

 

[Kosmiche]

Blacklight Retribution is a good game but its **** playing for free, you can't unlock anything decent.

 

[ShiWarrior]

Team Fortress 2

FREE to play
love it, I play it every day

This is here you have gone wrong. Stop reading all the bs and just get on and game. I have zero idea what has ever been nerfed and what has not and I don't care. Any gun on the game will do me.

You could give Natural Selection 2 a try if you fancied something a little different from standard class based fps.

i would recommend shootmania! great face pace game

Thanks for the recommendations guys! In response to the guy about BF3, I did enjoy the game on PS3, but the maps always seemed empty to me, even on full servers? Maybe better on PC with more players but I am not 100% sure my PC could run BF3 above 20FPS lol!

I have tried to talk a few mates into playing PS2 but no dice! lol, I will try a few more of the games recommended.

Tribes Ascend....it's free to play without being pay to win.
Fast action and fun.

Try it, you have nothing to lose

+1.

 

[Breeze]

Battlefield 2 - if people still play it

Better all round than BF3

The above and PlanetSide 2 is good fun once you get in a big battle.

 

[modo77]

Planetside 2 and Team Fortress 2 are both excellent (and free).
BF3 is decent as well, just not a patch on 2 unfortunately

Soldier of fortune 2

Yes, its old but once you start playing you doing notice graphics then suddenly 2 hours have gone by!

Does SOF2 still have active servers? Used to play 9 years ago and loved every second.

 

[illuz]

BF3 - It's so easy and rewarding getting into a server and killing everyone in sight .

 

[poecilotheria]

Quakelive free to play, if you become good at Quake, you will become a beast on any other fps game and is tons of fun. Still has a good community although not as big as your popular noob shooters

 

[jamesaltria]

Planetside 2 IMO

 

[Kosmiche]

BF2 + Project Reality

 

['Wes]

[Wink]

CS:GO
