Best fps multiplayer

[MastaBlasta]

What would you say is your favorite first person shooter to play online? I like doom 3, quake 4, medal of honor, battlefield vietnam, soldier of fortune 2, and a few others but what about you?

[flashback]

renegade = pwnage

[MastaBlasta]

what is renegade how old got any liks?

[Mels_Smileys45]

soldier of fortune 2 is old but its still the best one ever. I play alot of Call of Duty but its not that great IMO. I love some of the levels but the aiming in that game is fucked up.

[MastaBlasta]

halo 3 is gonna be sick i know that

[Excrement_Cranium]

Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory

Play it daily.


Multiplayer only, free. What more do you need.

[hawkburn]

Halo2 for PC has been fun for me recently. But many in that game have found out that if you plug a 360 controller into the PC, you can auto-aim. Really hasn't made it fun after that.

Besides that, all I've played lately is Counter-Strike. Uncontested as the most popular, and in 2 flavors (source and 1.6.)

I also enjoyed Battlefield 2142 and Battlefield 2, and years ago - CoD 1 and 2. Wolfenstein ET is good as well, although I tend to like graphics and I recently hopped in game and could barely tell what was going on due to old graphics (since I was used to the battlefield series.)

Yeah. :/


It isn't horrible if you can get a decent frame rate with the graphic settings high. I'm stuck on a crap board w/ no AGP or PCI-E slots. I have an ATI radeon 9250 PCI version... meh.


Quake Wars: Enemy Territory will be coming out real soon. There is also a rumor of RTCW2.


I like Wolf:ET because it is fast, furious... and objective based. That, and I like the ability to tweak your interface and such.

Other free FPS: Open Arena, Alien Arena 2007, America's Army, and F.E.A.R. Combat (multiplayer only).

Haven't tried fear... it's a 6 gig download. I should give it a go, but since I am in a clan on ET, the game is only half the reason I play.

[MastaBlasta]

very nice I will try a few of the games you all have said!!!! What about the goriest games? you know there is the old school turok games then soldier of fortune 2 and even doom and quake. But what is really good for the gore are they taking gore out of games now because of stuff like Columbine? I think that the fragging addiction needs to be surrounded by blood. Well of course half-life is pretty bloody but still not good enough it is getting kind of old!

What is RTCW2? You know there are alot of games coming out speeking of gore like gta for the ps3, and starcraft 2 (which will have blood and gore) and a new turok, and of course halo 3.... I think all of those have great multiplayer potential

RCTW = Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

Originally ET was going to be an expansion pack for the RCTW multiplayer, but when they finished it, they decided to release it for free.

It's an old FPS game... but it had a good amount of popularity with Quake fans because it was based on the Quake 3 engine.

[p4paji]

for me... its Halo 2 and cs condition zero and source

[evilmegaman]

I like counter strike, and the quake series (particularly Quake 3 CPMA). umm I also think Red Orchestra, Shadowrun and Halo 2 seem very good too. Those are the ones I like the most.

[tendo]

halo or fear combat

[metalbmx13]

Quake III: Arena (excessive mod). I've been playing it for years and it never gets old. I also like FEAR Combat. And Counter-Strike and CS Source are cool too.

[ninja21]

Counter Strike :icon_thum

[Malakai1911]

Unreal Tournament, hands down, is the best FPS series ever.

Unreal Tournament: GOTY is from 1999 and I still play it with friends, and it is fun as hell.
Unreal Tournament 2004 adds vehicles, different weapons, new gametypes, awesome maps, and is fun as hell.
Unreal Tournament 3 is coming out ... is DirectX 10 compatible, has a more advanced physics engine, has way more vehicles, sick graphics, and I can hardly wait for it.

[onionofdoom3]

It's CSS all the way.

[apt_quadruped]

It's CSS all the way.

Rock on! I also like Battlefield 2, Counter Strike 1.6, Day of Defeat 1.6, and Day of Defeat Source.

I wonder if that will make use of the seemingly already-defunct phys-x cards. They seemed to fade into obscurity as quickly as they came out.

[hawkburn]

I'm hoping they come out with RTCW2. That would be awesome. RTCW was the first FPS multiplayer I ever played, about 6-7 years ago I think. No doubt helped kick off the many WWII series games.

[Malakai1911]

I do believe UT3 is PhysX compatible. Apparently for things like cloth they use it, not sure where else they took advantage.

[MoonMan]

Perfect Dark for the N64.

[Excrement_Cranium]

Other things like fog and environmental damage...


I'm just wondering how long untill the physX cards become "must-have."

[MastaBlasta]

Malakai your avatar is sooo sexy!!!


I want to play turok the new one that is coming out turok originated the best gore engine back with the N64... Oh and I want to play halo 3 alot too!!!

By far my favorite game ever would be medal of honor allied assualt and soldier of fortune 2

[Excrement_Cranium]

For those who didn't know:


QuakeWars: Enemy Territory is in limited public beta, and available to Fileplanet members in limited numbers.

The Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory community has been salivating at this one for a while... so far reviews after the beta are mixed.

[hongus]

battlefield 2

[mBhai]

medal of honor allied assault..used to play it at these gaming centres....great game!!

[boogigi]

Counter-strike 1.6

[andydbzee]

cs 1.5 was the best by far! 1.6 was crap. the whole steam thing ruined counter-strike, although it did keep h4x0rs at bay somewhat. source is pretty cool but its easy to lose interest. techno + counter-strike for the win, will keep you busy for days.

[kingofthescreen]

Team Fortress 2 looks awesome. Can't wait for it to come out. Loved the first one.

[Sephiroth]

Counter Strike, Call of Duty, Battlefield 1942, UT 2004

[-0-BACKLASH-0-]

I've only played the UT games and they are my fav. :) ut99 and ut2k4. will have to get back into it again with the new version, which they say is coming in nov, but I'm not so sure it will be released on time.

[Mels_Smileys45]

Even though its very dated, SOF2 still rules them all.

[VirusMage]

Counter Strike 1.6 or Battlefield 2.

[bestever24]

definetly counter strike

fear and bf 2 are also very good

[homiesessual]

cs 1.6 for life

[putsqpariu]

Counter Strike

[Akamajor]

FAR CRY the ultima.............
played FEAR also
wainting my hands to get on CRYSIS

[Mels_Smileys45]

People people people! Go download SOF2, there is a working version out there you can play online. Just get the seperate file that has the crack generator because the other version key is banned. Then come back here and tellm everyone what the best online FPS really is. Its no contest. Graphics do not make the best game the best, its all about the game play and the balanced weapons.

So... Wolfenstein: ET then?

[washounce]

halo and cs

[Mels_Smileys45]

I still have Wolfenstein but havent playind in forever. I would love to play it again though. The Beach invasion was awesome. I could play that map forever.

Whats ET again? My brain is gone.

[evilmegaman]

enemy territory yo

It's pretty good

But I haven't played a multiplayer FPS forever... Any new ones worth playing?

[inacxch]

counter strike 1.6 best multiplayer FPS i have played

[tbjunki]

Battlefield Vietnam is the best Game!
also very good game would be Battlefield Vietcong or VietCong 2 ? also good FPS multiplayer

[dioms]

Id go with UT 2004 for lan.
And wolfenstein ET for online :p

[peterParker_]

I don't know if any of you have seen it but the new Call of Duty 4 looks amazing.
I just got the beta for it and it's running sick.
It's like a mix between Rainbow Six and COD with a touch of Gears.

[revttowner]

You have to try Quake 2 with OSP-mod, or Quake 3 with CPMA-mod.
Those are what I call real online FPS.
And for who didn't know, you can strafe jump with Quake, wich makes it a really awesome game to master. You can also practice that strafe-jumping and bunny hopping with a Jump-mod.
Before I started with Q2 I played Unreal Tournament (1), wich was really cool too because of the alternate fire, and the really cool levels, and capture the flag amused me too. After that I started playing Instagib with Q2, wich is pretty challenging. (instagib is one hit kills, and you have only one weapon, the railgun).
Then came UT2003 or 2004 dont know, with the Onslaught mode, wich is awesome too.
Now I have RSI from too much gaming :)

Which is why I play ET.

Good user base, Q3 engine based, so the trick jumping is involved, and the play is objective based rather than just a frag fest, though stats are tracked so fraggers can have their bragging rights.

There are also a few trick jump servers out there so you can practice that if it's your thing.

[drtoker]

Last FPS game that I really enjoyed was Perfect Dark. I know its old, but hear me out. No games (to my knowledge) have the sim options like perfect dark for multi player games. I do not want to rely on having enough friends over, or an online connection, to play a good multi player game. Also, its nice to add in sims even in a big game with your friends, makes it more interesting. I would love to see some newer fps games intergrate sims into their multi player mode, and stop relying on having a ton of tv's and systems in your house, or an online gaming system.

[Signa]

yeah PD was the best. i havnt had the chance to see the new PDZ, but given how high they set the bar last time, i dont doubt the lack-luster reviews at all.

[yomama420]

halo 3 FTW

I finally downloaded ET. Ive been playing a lot today and I like it. Still play?

[Excrement_Cranium]

I'm still in a Clan for it. I play mostly when I catch friends on through Xfire. Get Xfire, PM me your username, and I'll add you. Then we can frag some face.


You might also check out a newer FPS called Combat Arms. Another free one, very Counterstrike-ish.


You might want to make sure you download the ET 2.60 patch, and the 2.60b binaries patch.


If you dig enough to play, I'll hook you up w/ our clan forums address and we'll see about getting you some tags.

[wapazoid]

Battlefield 2 and Day of Defeat: Source are my favorites.

Thanks for the info. I find it fun but right now I SUCK! Bad. There is so much different than Return I have not got the feel for it yet.

[Signa]

i think TF2 probably wins my vote for best FPS MP game right now.

[wapazoid]

TF2's a good time. I still love 2fort.

[rebelxr8]

halo 2-3,conflict global storm,rogue ops but lately i have been stuck into the oddworld series.

[Excrement_Cranium]

It's pretty hard core. If we get to hooking up I can set you up with some tips and tweaks, scripts, configs etc to help your game. Though, since I bought my new comp I play pretty vanilla.


You see the trailers for the new Wolfenstein from E3?

[evilmegaman]

I'm creaming my pants about quake live. I loved quake 3. it's just a pain in the ass to setup and it's always on custom shit and barely any servers and everyone's really good I can't compete. so I can't wait for that

[Feather]

I still play Quake 3 about 4 times a week. and there are plenty of servers running. but you are right about the custom configs and custom maps and all but that is what high speed internet is for.

[Excrement_Cranium]

I'm kinda interested in seeing what will happen when Mods etc start rolling out for Quake Wars. They released the dev kit a few months ago, but it's been mostly quiet on that front.

The ET community was excited for it's release, but it was like a large collective "meh" once it did release.

Idk I'm a pure sorta guy. I like stuff at the most basic level.

[dis4bled]

i have always been a counter-strike 1.6 and source fan
i was way more into 1.6 but lets say never lend your steam account out to your little cousin
they always hack...even if they say they dont
know i have to rebuy over 200$ worth of valve games
lol :(

[Signa]

I refuse to play CS anymore. It brings out the worst in me. That and just sucking, so I spend all my time as an observer.

[Mels_Smileys45]

Not sure if I posted this already but...

I saw Gears of War 2 on G4 and it looked AMAZING! AMAZING! AMAZING! Did I say it was AMAZING! Well it is AMAZING! I wonder how the multi player is. I think they said something about online gaming, not sure but it looked AMAZING and won game of show I think.

[Signa]

that jackson picture is awesome

[Burt_Flaxton]

I am a battlefield guy myself. I put many pathetic years of my life into that game... loved every second of it... even the spawn camping.

[toxic420]

COD4 and CS:S

[Burt_Flaxton]

CoD4 = overrated :P

[lypton]

Counter Strike 1.6 and Call of duty 4

[Atheist Icon]

CS:S, COD4, F.E.A.R, TF2.

TF2 now more than any game on there, I love to just blow stuff up and have chunks of flesh all over the field.

Just waiting for COD: World at War.

here are some screenies: http://www.callofduty.com/reconnaissance/screenshots
love the fact that they are going to the pacific on this one.

[shawners]

Call of Duty 4.. BEST OF THE BEST!!

[Excrement_Cranium]

Call of Duty 4.. BEST OF THE BEST!!

I'm gonna have to try the multiplayer on PC.

On Xbox 360 it was brutal due to my neanderthumbs. I suck w/ dual analogs on console shooters.

[MajorHarrison]

Battlefield 2 FTW. Great game, I just cant wait for BF3!!

[multiflex]

1. UT'99
2. Wolf:ET
3. COD4

[Southgate]

The best is TF2. A very distant second is CoD4.

[drtoker]

I dunno if i answered before here, but I've been playing a lot of N64 again, and perfect dark is still my favorite FPS multiplayer.

I think it goes back to my complaint that no new games offer good options for Sims anymore.

Multiplayer should be fun weather you have 2 people or 8 (or more now adays lol)
