Looking for a multiplayer FPS that fits me.

[Zixxilon Kellidar]

Prologue: First person who mentions Modern Warfare 2 gets a boot to the head.

Requirements for me to like it:

1. No 'nade or rocket whores. Common problem in Bad Company 2 and Modern Warfare Series. (Team Fortress 2 is an exception with the rocket launcher because it's the soldier's main weapon)

2. Good player base is a must (teamwork, good manners, helpful, etc.). Not whiny immature little brats, if possible (like in Modern Warfare 2), which brings me to another point:

3. No achievements, or at least none that are good enough to care about going for.

4. CTF is actually CTF and not "kill your team mate when they try to CTF.

Anyway, there ya go! Any suggestions?

Frontlines: Fuel of War. Good game, you can find it in the bargain bin; I got mine last year for ten bucks, I think.

Big matches, everyone starts on the same page (no "I'm higher rank, thus I get better weapons" bullshit), you earn upgrades to your class in-match. Vehicle controls are a bit iffy at first but you get used to them.

EDIT: Also, Bioshock. Laggy servers, but if you can deal with that the multiplayer on that game is crack.

Oh, and Left 4 Dead, but you've probably considered that already.

Explosive whoring is not a problem in Bad Company. Also, when you see a tank, its hilarious to watch a giant machine be felled by a little AT mine.

Also, watching a Humvee cartwheel across the map via multiple AT mines is always a blast.

Ummm... yeah it is. Whenever my friend went on Bad Company 2 pvp, and I saw him, the players would spam 40mm grenades and rockets. It's the main player caused death he had to deal with.

Some of the scenarios were fun, but he made a point that I'm not gonna go into a game with people who abuse explosives. I prefer skill.

I've logged around fifty hours into the game and I have not encountered one man who uses an RPG like it were a pistol.

I don't think it's a shooter you're looking for?

The Carl Gustav is basically the best sniper rifle in BC2

This, and Sauerbraten (Cube 2). Cube 2 is freeware, too.

You must be confused with the M95. The only rifle in which you can snipe a Black Hawk out of the sky.

Was about to suggest Counter Strike until your post was all "no grenade whores".
I'm honestly out of ideas.

Unreal Tournament (any. I have seen players on all games amazingly) This game is nothing but multi-player mayhem. If you get 3, do it for pc. Sure the requiremens to run a smooth game are fairly high, but it is so worth it. I have never encountered some smart a** thirteen year old who thinks he invented the game. The RL is not insta-kill (unless you charge up 3 at once, but by then you could have killed them). Plus on the pc, the very very kind people at Epic games also let the players create maps, weapons, vehicles, game modes, and entire conversion mods! though the best ctf map available comes with the game (facing worlds). and ctf requires actual teamwork online. Unless the host has the grav gun mod in the game (2k4), with which you could alt fire to attach yourself to an object/ground and launch yourself all the way back to your base and score a point. Even if you were to die upon landing a team mate could take the flag and score for you.

I belive that that the game you're looking for doesn't exist, sorry

 

[sephiroth1991]

I going out on a wing but what about Return to Castle Wolfenstein, it was team based with classes

 

[Tethalaki]

Get yourself a copy of Battlefield 2, and then get this mod; http://www.moddb.com/mods/project-reality.

Aside from that, Unreal Tournament 3/2004 both loosely fit what you want.

Quake Wars is an excellent game, get it on PC if you can.

Wolfenstein Enemy Territory is also pretty cool, and it's free.

Aside from that, Unreal Tournament 3/2004 both loosely fit what you want.

This is actually a pretty good suggestion, the Assault and Battlefield-like modes are absolutely epic, although it could do with a few more team based elements.

I would say Bad Company 2 because I have never had problem with rocket whores unless I'm in a tank, but I do run into a few people who refuse to play anything but sniper, and that sorta pisses me off.

 

[Megacherv]

Quake? I don't think little kids play quake anymore.

Oh but I wish they would...they'd know what a fun FPS is...

I don't think it's a shooter you're looking for?

Hehehe...he's got us all there...

What platform are you on 'cos I am a little jealous. I died so much yesterday due to 40 mm grenades, it's one man army all over again.

If you have resistance 2 it's good, it has big maps, loads of players per map, the load out thing is a little weird (you can choose your primary weapon, your secondary is always a magnum but your grenade goes with the set), there are no kill streaks. There is the little problem were you die a fair bit.

I don't know about whiny kids and I don't know what CTF is.
