8 Great FPS Games to Look Forward to in 2017
- Thread starter n0e
- Start date
Battlefront 2 came out many years ago, either change the title or stop listing it.
That said I really do need to play more FPS games, most of my steam library is strategy games and I like the excitement an FPS offers. Guess it's why I've been playing a lot of Borderlands 2 and the Pre-Sequel lately.

2 things:
-Numbers 4 and 5 are missing their formatting, and their text.
-2 games on the list arent FPS' for as far as I am aware.
That spiritual succesor to Decent though, might want it once I have a new PC.

Battalion 1944 looks more and more like Day of Defeat every time I see it, this makes me deliriously happy.
Why Valve persisted with Counter Strike and Team Fortress 2 but allowed Day of Defeat to tail off I will never know.
The other things I take from this is that only 6 First Person Shooters worth talking about are coming up this year, Prey had better be awesome.

Yes it is, though technically there's an ability to go into first person when aiming. If it was pure first-person I might actually consider getting it.Worgen said:
1) Almost certainly won't play it, but I think it looks interesting.
2) Haven't heard of.
3) No, unless it has a very solid singleplayer
4) No (also, your entry for this one is glitched or something)
5) Eh, kinda
6) Same as Farpoint - doubt I'll play it, but as someone who loved Battlefield 1942, glad it exists
7) No, and isn't this a TPS?
8) This isn't an FPS. It isn't even a TPS. It's an RPG with TPS elements.
...but yes, I am kinda looking forward to it.

Damn, hadn't that game on my radar ... until now! Looks great and tongue in cheek!Worgen said:
Which clearly shows again: Comments are soooo important to "news" articles!
The game play might be on point, but the more I look at Quake, the more.... disappointed I am with it given how Doom rocked our collective faces.
They always wanted it as a darker, edgier older brother to Doom's "Lulz demons from hell, brah". The First Quake was sitting in its smoking jacket and reading the wall street journal going "Quaint. We have Eldritch Gods."
But nope. They decide to revamp the now campy looking 90's Quake arena aesthetic. And it really doesn't work.

Not gonna lie. I'm super excited for Quake: Champions and Prey.
Dusk is a notable one. Looks like a true homage to the Quakes, Dooms, and Heretic/Hexens of years past. Far more than Strafe does, anyway.
Granted, it wears its inspirations on its sleeve, but still.
The Super Best Friends crew did a first look of sorts here - http://store.steampowered.com/app/519860/
They had their reasons, including a loss of interest from the community in WWII based shooters, but it doesn't mean we have to like it...fix-the-spade said:
Nah. There are others. I'm not sure why they limited the list to six.

Gods, I hope so.
Better question: Why the hell didn't he include Dusk?!Worgen said:

See above.ObsidianJones said:
I would love to know what the real reasons were. Day of Defeat Source sold pretty well and had large payer base for a good six years after, a thousand-ish people are still playing it now twelve years after release. Although it somehow manages to be even less noob friendly than Counter Strike, which might have something to do with it.Vigormortis said:
I suspect it was dropped because nobody could think of a good way to monetise it. I would love a new version to come out with the original DoD factions and weapons, but that seems to be slim hope.
