Call of Duty ruined a generation of FPS players?

[Mario Mluigifish]

Can't run ARMA...
Gets Counter-Strike
Much better.

Or tf2...

Never found much fun in counter strike, I just have an itching feeling in the back of my head, a tiny voice screaming "YOU'RE A TRAINED SOLDIER, USE YOUR GODDAMNED SIGHTS ALREADY, AAAUUUUGGGH"
Never liked playing TF2, either, but I love the characters~
Arma 2, however, is very fun..or it would be, if I could find a game with some organisation to it >_>
DayZ is alright, Slightly lost interest in it as of late.
Mostly playing HAWKEN, because robots. And Planetside 2, of course.
Waiting for BF4~

Hawken Is freaking epic.

Hawken Is freaking epic.

Only thing, and this may be nit-picking, but I miss the old "accurate sights" setting.
The swaying and jarring of the redicle made it just -that- much more immersive, but now it's gone D:

maybe, but it has smooth controls, and you're in mechs.... MECHS!!! only thing that could improve it would be if when you were blown up that you were on foot outside your mech, and you could still attack, until you know... dead.

The lore explains that most of the air is completely toxic, poisoned by the HAWKEN virus, leaving people with limited oxygen supplies. Basically, your mech doubles as a life support system >_>
That's also why all streets and walkways are empty or taken over by immense oxygen filtration systems, or other pipes nessisary to support the completely indoors life of the worlds inhabitents.
So..I'd rather stay until the end, doing as much damage as possible in my giant killing machine than bail out at the first sign of trouble, only to have my lungs burned out of my chest cavity >_>

That's not quite what i meant... i mean as in you have like 1 minute out there to get to safety and back in a mech you know?

Eh, don't think it's that kind of game >_>
I'd imagine there's no easy way out of those steel death traps.
Most of them are made of scrap and spare parts, anyways. Besides, with upwards of 12billion people on the earth, pilots are just as disposable as the garbage cans they operate.

 

[duncaniax]

fair enough. -shrugs-

 

[duncaniax]

But cod still sucks...
