why are there no good futuristic military shooters out rn smh

[toku]

Just something solid, and well polished. Good #aesthetics. How has no one nailed this properly yet on a decent level? And when they do yall bitch about not being zomg my world war




Give me round based obj and tdm. Give me some cool weapons and tools that do cool shit. Give me lens flares and neon signs and rain. Give me that CoD +100 action pop ups and medals. Give me weird maps. I want a shoot out in some cool looking locations like a rave, or a lab. Give me deep personal character customization. Let me dress my fucking barbie doll up with cool gear, sweet face tats and hot pink assault rifles.



Focus on urban warfare with an organic/country-side map everynow and then. I'm imagining something along the lines of the speed/combat style of CoD but environment interaction/destruction of something like Bad Company



Remember in neuromancer when they go to the satellite and its operated by rastafarian hash heads? Give me shoot outs there!


 

RIP Shattered Horizon. Zero G Space Shooter ruined by a bunch of tiny brain fucks who wanted "more guns" because they couldn't understand that combat wasn't about the what kinda tool you had in your hand, but how you used it. So the devs dumbed it down and the community left.

WHY DO THEY KEEP DOING THIS

Toku speaking badly about someone?!?! Never come between him and his shooters I guess!

"Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion"

This scene has been around for 34 years and someohow more devs haven't made it their life's goal to recreate shit hinted at in this one line in a meaningful manner.

 

Imagine a game where all the respawn/death shit could be handled via lore as clones being sent to shithole battlefields to die. Could even include some kinda prestige mechanic where your clone becomes sentient/wakes up (voice lines)

titanfall 2 was pretty cool have you tried that

[Tasty]

I still want my bounty hunter in space game and have yet to get it so I can feel your pain.

Metroid Prime 4's in development breh.

[Kara]

After DUST 514 was released (and murdered) developers wisely decided to eschew futuristic military shooters because CCP had already put out the pinnacle of the genre.

[thisismyusername]

Aren't they still trying to port that to PC?

[Rahxephon91]

Infinite Warfare is good.

[kingv]

Samus is the worst bounty hunter ever.

She seems to never actually take contracts... or dick.

[Raist]

Also Killzone 2 is straight garbage glad even guerrilla is off that now.

The MP was exactly what toku mentioned in his post, fucking awesome, and a nice departure from the kahladoody trash. And other twitchy FPS garbage.

Lol yeah guess I should have clarified. A bounty hunter in space game where you take on contracts. Think Witcher.

I'm still mad they canceled Star Wars 1313. Fucking Disney

Project Nova is supposed to be released in 2018, but I'm not considering this a Shenmue 3 situation worthy of my undying belief.

BTW, Project Legion (the first failed attempt to make a PC sequel) makes a brief appearance in 2014's John Wick. Not like a poster, either, but actual gameplay.

Just wait for Squadron 42 to be finished. #HODL

One of my old internet friends became a fash who posts the most stupid stuff you could imagine about whiteness and another friend from that same forum became a Star Citizen truther who posts the most stupid stuff you could imagine about one of the great Ponzi schemes in history. There must have been something in the water there. *goes back to upvoting on /r/wholesomemaoistmemes*

The other big shooters at the time multiplayer wise were CoD4, WaW, Halo 3, Gears of War 2, TF2, Counter Strike Source, and BF Bad Company.

The best multiplayer game on PS3 barring CoD was MGS4, probably the main redeeming thing about that turd fire of a game.

People loved Warhawk.

All I can think of is Blacklight Retribution, but that wasn't very memorable

Yeah a cool internet friend of mine from TW days became a white nationalist. Weird because in that group we had he was the "soft" tolerant one.

I had some fun with this one! It was just incredibly hard to compete with ppl that had the better weapons/gear.

Not really the same but Hawken was also fun:


I know one of the art guys who worked on it I ended up grouping with them through another mutual years later lol.

[thisismyusername]

Hawken was fun. It's a shame it went through like 3 publishers, 2 developers and NEVER added maps.

I bagged on Infinite Warfare for over a year. Picked it up on PS4 for $12 at gamestop. The MP is a blast. There are even Ground War matches! BO3 on PC never had anyone in Ground War.

Can't vouch for the PC version though.

Technically members of Sony's unpaid marketing team who happened to have NeoGAF accounts like it.

And boy did they make sure the rest of us knew about it on NeoGAF.

Ironic, considering DUST 514 was a Playstation 3 exclusive.

The progression of Black Ops makes no sense to me. By now, Black Ops should be where Infinite Warfare is for technology and weapons.

The mobility options added into past CoD games has felt very janky imo. The control schemes and general feel doesnt gel with dying in a second when you see somebody.
