Brink!
Isn't Brink just regular multiplayer only? I already have TF2 for that, don't need or want another.
I guess I forgot to add singleplayer and/or co-op to that wish. ()

Reddit?
Jesus christ that shithole is still around?
Take Fallout, put it in a blender with Left 4 Dead 2.
Team based versus gameplay, set in a post-nuclear war alternate reality.
Actually, that "shithole" tends to be 10x more intelligent and informative than anything on this forum, so yeah, I'd say it's doing pretty well. I can see why you don't like it though. Your irrelevant comments would be downvoted pretty quickly.
I'd love to play a good shooter that didn't involve War or mutants/zombies/monsters of any kind. I like human vs. human combat, but not in the overdone warzone setting.
I see us going back to text adventures. FPS sytle:
> look left
*You look to your left and see your teammate l33tsnip3r's head explode
>look right
*You look right and see a rocket from OMGBBQnewb blasting toward you
>run south
>run south
>run south
*Lag spike!
*IHATETHISGAME has been blown to bits by OMGBBQnewb's rocket!
*OMGBBQnewb to all: n00b, learn to type faster.
I don't see the circlejerking, mostly because I'm not subscribed to those subreddits.Reddit: A website where the pretentious douchebags of the internet gather circle jerking each other for praise and upvotes.
Sensible? I can counter this pretty easily. See: P&N. (Maybe a bit hypocritical considering my first comment, but I can't exactly filter out P&N posts.)AT: Sensible discussion about topics at hand.
You're right. The thing is though, I've stopped caring about the big-name developers and publishers. Here's why.It's gonna go downhill. The days of Deus Ex and UT type games are over. Now everybody wants to be the next call of duty. Commercialization killed the FPS genre just like Commercialization killed the Action Movie genre.
Every a new game comes out with a simplified gameplay experience to reel in the masses. It's all brown and bloom. Nothing intelligent nor innovative. Everyone is imitating everyone else. Some do it better than others. But those that do have nothing unique or defining about their games.
How does this event have anything to do with increased consolization and the end of private servers? They still exist, and will continue to exist. There are still plenty of games with free custom content, you just need to dig harder. Understand that 80% of gamers will just keep eating what they are spoonfed, and nothing you say will have anything to do with it. If you want arena style shooters, go pug UT GotY edition. there are still a bunch of Pugs running.
The only regular weapons pug that's active right now is #mlut, but I don't have the skill for that and I don't always get along with some of the cretins there. I would pug at #speedpug if it were still active.
You play a modern day criminal hunted by police or the CIA or something. You are being set up by some mysterious entity and everyone is after you for something you didn't do. Nonetheless, it's you against "the man" and you spend the whole game on the run....Killing Police, gangsters, unknowns, government Ops, whomever gets in your way.......:thumbsup:
Does it matter what they replace it with? Whatever the setting, they will inevitably be shitty.Spawned from a reddit thread. Since Osama is dead now, will they stop making shitty middle eastern FPS games?
What will they replace it with?
Raven is out of business, but it's pretty much impossible at this point for Quake 5 to be anything but a health regen space COD, just like Doom 4 is going to be.Quake 5, please. Just as long as a) it's not consolized and b) isn't made by Raven.
i've never played UT before last summer, and i dominate MLUT pugs.
Quake 5, please. Just as long as a) it's not consolized and b) isn't made by Raven.
I agree. Everything recently is lacking in creativity. The market is dominated with retarded sequels (DA2, Diablo 3, SC2, ME3), or games with the same plot summary (COD, even BF3, MoH). Not to say they aren't good games, it is just really lacking in the creativity department. I would say that is true for Hollywood too, all they have been doing is remaking old movies.
