What MP game are you from? (or have played/liked the most)


(INF3RN0) #1

The poll is just a quick reference, but of course isn’t entirely accurate because many people play many different games. It would be nice just to get the feel of what MP games we all come from or that inspire our gaming preferences just as a reference. This doesn’t mean that you want DB to be the same as your game either FYI, just interested in backgrounds. Feel free to post your full resume as well.

Me;

ETQW

Also a big fan of; ET, Quake, UT, CS, and all sorts of non-fps games. I probably have more of an RTS gaming background than FPS heh.

Derp forgot Tribes, o well.

Started in Q3 (on Dreamcast then bought a PC), when RtCW was released I split my time between both of those. Played ET and ETQW for years but ended up mostly tricking in them. Currently I don’t get much time to play but when I do it’s mostly QL but quite often I real life friend it up in the CoD’s and Borderlands. Dabble in CS:S/GO. Through-out my gaming history, Q3/QL has always been present.

Aw naw you dint! No Q3 in the list? For shame! FOR SHAME! (no Doom either but I’m guessing you mean MP… actually I started with Doom using linked playstations… hmmm)

I was just trying to think of fairly different MP games that people in alpha were probably from off the top of my head lol. I guess I just grouped all the Quakes into the series and hoped people would specify which one/s they liked best/played [B]heh.

FUUUU. I thought I wrote Quake in there. Fail edit tools won’t let me hide the fail. Should have a mod add Quake and Tribes to the poll :/.[/B]


(Bangtastic) #4

CS 1.6 (which is still really enjoyable)
Nuclear Dawn
love UT 2k4
bf3 still trying to do some comp
halo 3 on xbox

This are the shooters I played the most (some even more than final fantasy XD)

I used to play lots of RPGs froms snes to psx, xbox and pc

Yeah presuming it’s MP, i started with RTCW on 56k no less, before getting 0.5MB broadband in 2003.

Played RTCW by far the most of any game, played pub and competitive (low-mid mind, mid coming as the game ran out of players :wink: . Played some W:ET, ETQW, BF2 (BC2, BF3), CoD (4, WAW, Blops), Team Fortress 2, Brink (100hrs or so!!), CS (1.6 so little barely remember, mainly CS:S and latterly CS:GO), and finally a little L4D (hundred hours or so).

Mainly playing CS:GO, TF2 and DirtyBomb at the moment, with the occasional foray into BF3. Still play other genres, some short indie games are good (eg. Braid) and CoH remains my favourite RTS, even if it stresses me out playing against others…


(Seanza) #6

ET:QW & Call of Duty mainly. Played ET, Quake, CS and newer Call of Duty games too. What game do I enjoy most out of them all? ET:QW. Why? Movement, class-based objectives, I get 1000 FPS :smiley:


(h2o) #7

RTCW for ever :stroggflag:


(tokamak) #8

No shooter ever came close to the amount of fun I had with ETQW.


(Pytox) #9

ET I liked the most with all the custom maps and stuff. ETQW was cool too, although sad that ATVI kinda dropped the ball there :eek:


(Dormamu) #10

Didn’t see Brink in there, so i voted ET … good movie, i cry every time i watch it :tongue:


(Dthy) #11

QW because reasons.


(Violator) #12

Tough one between ET & QW but picked ET :slight_smile: Evolutionary-wise (multiplayer at least) Q2 -> UT2k3 & CS -> RTCW -> ET -> QW.


(Erkin31) #13

Played a lot on ET, but my prefered FPS is ETQW (the only FPS multi that I consider as a 10/10).
All evolutions of ETQW are something that I waited for the sequel of ET. Of course, there is a loss in the change of engine (ID tech 3, best engine ever), but not enough to make me angry.
Oh, and ETQW is the only FPS on which I played in competition.

FPS that I liked after ETQW:
Dystopia (Really good)
Savage 2 (Really good)
Tribes Ascend (Genius)
Shootmania (Really good)
Nuclear Dawn (not bad)
Brink (not bad)

Tribes Ascend is clearly my best FPS multi since ETQW.
As you can see, there is only few FPS since ETQW that I liked. It’s why I waited a lot from Dirty Bomb.

I’m also a big fan of realistics FPS : Old rainbow six, SWAT 4, ARMA, Red Orchestra.


(TS420) #14

RTCW was first love but ETQW is better and just a little more fun imho. Played comp in both. Destruction forever!


(slanir) #15

Q3, ET, ETQW, natural-selection 1 & 2, tribes

I love my fast fps games :stroggbanana:


(rookie1) #16

I played almost all genre on all era like to see setup in different games even if its a non popular games
Most played FPS was C&C Renegade but many other MP but not on a regular base (ETQW ,BRINK SWB2…)

So hard to answer this without going off into a personal gaming history, I shall try to be brief and keep it FPS related.

Started with Wolfenstein 3D (PC), Perfect Dark (N64) and Quake 3 (Dreamcast).

Did some Unreal Tournament, Enemy Territory and Call of Duty 2 LAN’s with friends.

Quake Wars (Pro) was amazing, class specific progressive objectives with asymmetrical teams, tight spread, long firefights, decent enough movement, if it didn’t have vehicles I could have said it was perfect.

I actually really liked Brink, initially a bit sad it didn’t have asymmetrical teams, but super happy for no vehicles. However after a break from gaming for some real life things and upon returning it was pretty much dead, so sad this didn’t get the support it deserved.

Of course I also played some other usual culprits, GoldenEye, Doom, Quake, FarCry, Crysis, Battlefield, Call of Duty, Rainbow 6, Left 4 Dead, Dystopia, Section 8, Shattered Horizon, Frontlines, Half Life, Counter Strike, Killing Floor, Aliens vs. Predator, Borderlands, Team Fortress…

TL;DR ET:QW


(Bitey) #18

I’ve always found myself to desire to be in every possible setup of an FPS gameplay.

These games cover the last 6 years, I’ve always been slow to move on and put in way to many hours.

Dystopia(The one and only <333)
L4d/l4d2
Hl2DM
Tf2
Crysis2/3
CallofDutyMW3- Lots of rape :3
Mechwarrior(Living Legends mod)- This is probably the slowest and most tactical FPS game I ever played, and it was also one of the most enjoyable.
Natural Selection 2

As for the list of games I played in earlier years:
Descent1/2( My very first games and always my most loved evarrrrrrrr)
Tribes
CSS
Jedi KnightII Jedi Outcast
Swat 4

Truth be told, I never played Doom, Quake, or Unreal. ^^;


(ailmanki) #19

From monkey island saga to doom and such, lots of strategy games, then quake3 offline, then et online - since then stuck with ET. Still playing Q3 and QL from time to time…
Though I am still buying games - basically all single player. I tried hl2 online, but I don’t like it.


(Patriotqube) #20

This 1 is Easy --> W:ET

Ofc i played others both before and after, but nothing came close
