So I've played a good amount of shooters on PC, but wondering if there's some I missed. I'm a big fan of detailed gunplay in terms of handling, recoil, ballistics, authentic accuracy, sound, etc.
Probably the two best I've played so far were Battlefield series and STALKER: SoC. The former though just isn't all that interesting in terms of actual gameplay, while the latter had excellent gameplay but suffered from some pointless hit probability stat on top of base accuracy, which made every gunfight feel like playing craps. Even on MASTER it's capped at 50%. I never found a mod that fixed it correctly, but maybe others know of one.
Anyways, what are some recommendations? I was thinking of Far Cry 5 because it might have some good weapons mods, but the guns feel like they lack guts from past entries in this series. Same with the more recent Wolfenstein games. Great gunplay but they just feel and sound kinda weak. I also played all the Crysis games but I was always annoyed at the tape recorder effect that automatic gunfire had. Like holding down fire was playing a recording instead of distinctive rounds being fired.
Basically looking for a shooter that has the best gun physics, accuracy models, recoil and sound design. Not sure if all that's possible in one game. I was wondering about ARMA 3, but not sure I want to dive into that rabbit hole. Anything a bit less simulation-heavy?
