Competitive FPS/TPS games you've played.

this makes no sense considering all the tournaments in ut 99 were ctf/tdm and all the tournaments in ut2k3 and ut2k4 were 1vs1


fukk man I feel like I post in opposite world on this forum

The gameplay was really more team oriented - at least, it felt that way for me. Duels felt better in 99, but maybe I just didn't give it enough of a chance in 2K4.

2k3 > 2k4 (they nerfed double jump in 2k4)

but what im getting from this thread (and really almost every thread talking about gaming on this site) is its all about that person opinion.. which no offense, dont mean a fukkin thing.. its up to the leagues/professional players .. not anyone on this forum..

I mean you personally felt 1vs1 was better in ut 99. but no one else shares that opinion, otherwise the leagues would of played it more then. just being honest..

Sure, maybe it's the nostalgia of it, but I'm not exactly holding my breath for signs of agreement. It is my opinion after all. Regardless, I still feel Q3/QL is the greatest competitive FPS ever born. Q1 was no slouch either. I hated 2 though.

Don't understand why people prefer quake over unreal. Maybe because I prefer strafing. Hate how airborne Quake is, I like my shooters to be grounded and have good strafing.

Regardless, good discussion in this thread.

Counter Strike Source and Unreal 2004 only thing I played real comp on. I'm not good enough at console to play competitive. I can play random match making in Halo and do above average to great. Its alot diff then playing a map tatically and with real skill.

Played Counter-Strike when I was younger but was garbage, used to run some Quake and Unreal as a kid too but I can't say I truly got into it competitively. I thoroughly enjoyed whooping ass on Rainbow Six Vegas 1 and 2 on 360, but I hated gamebattles(was banned at one point because I talk so much shyt in the feedback reports ) and thus I did my best to just avoid that altogether and run scrims with the pros instead.

Halo3 and onward were all pretty terrible IMO. The net code, bullet spread, bullet refunding, bullets failing to register while blood flies out of your opponent, and ridiculous host advantage were more than enough to stop me from ever wanting to play it seriously outside of the MLG playlist in Halo 3. Halo Reach's bloom was terribly executed and in general just wasn't fun to me at all, easily the worst Halo period. I actually enjoyed 4 but the small things fukked it up for me...(zoom sway on hit and such), and the community for it fell off massively compared to every other Halo game.

Other games include Ghost Recon Summit Strike(OG xbox piff) and Shadowrun for the 360...that game is too much puff man, so many nikkas overlooked that. For a console game, it presented the perfect mix of shooting skill, strategy, knowledge of the game, and teamwork to win. Console CoD, Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory on PC, and that new Counter-Strike Global. Wasn't pro or close to being the best at a lot of those games but I still played and followed enough competitively to know what looks good and what doesn't.

and someone said Unreal Tournament which is the most competitive/hardest to be good at FPS of all time

Counter-Strike and Quake >>>>>>

theres no way you can possibly think MLG is the biggest league in the world after we just had fukking dream hack just this last weekend and thats not even the biggest tournament/qualifier in the world


Starcraft overseas alone has bigger leagues than MLG
League of Legends has bigger weekend tournaments than the biggest cash prizes MLG has ever given out ever
Same with DOTA 2

You realize MLG runs more than one game...right? These leagues you are talking about run one game each...so common sense should tell you that's why the payouts are bigger. If I go to compete in a starcraft tourney, with only one game being played all weekend...the payout better be more than MLG which is running about 5 different games. MLG is the biggest gaming league in the world because it runs a a bunch of different games and is successful at it. They ran starcraft 2 and LoL at the same time alongside BLOPS 2 and Street Fighter I think....and you think the money isn't going to be spread around?

the ignorance in this post makes it one of the worst posts pf the arcadium this entire year

No one cares about MLg bruh , foreign players have pretty much stopped travelling to america for Mlg a long time ago

MLG runs sc2 , leage of legenda and cod. I just brought up Dream Hack which has all those games PLUS dota , Quake AND counter strike. That went on over this weekend. You are not a competitive gamer, so you didnt even know butbyet here you are talking about something you know nothing about

LOL...anyway

the point I was trying to make flew over your little head. Other than Dream Hack (which is basically a huge festival that involves more than gaming) the majority of those other leagues run one game specifically thus making the prize pools bigger. Btw. the Dream Hack tourney had a prize pool of over $1 million which is basically the same as what MLG puts into each tourney and national championship....but keep trying to discredit the biggest gaming league in the world.

Also, since you love running back to Dream Hack...did you forget this happened?

It was announced on November 15, 2012 that DreamHack would be partnering with Major League Gaming and Electronic Sports League to help facilitate the growth and development of the North American and European eSports scene. This partnerships includes universal rankings, unified competition structures and more

but...but...MLG isn't big...yet somehow they were able to align themselves with two of the biggest names in E-Sports.

No way. Counter-strike is definitely more difficult to get good at than Quake. Quake is arcade-shooter at its finest, I never thought that game (or UT) was difficult at all. CS was challenging to get good at.

quake >>>>>>> cs


quake has no spread for basically all the weapons therefore no skill ceiling aka as good as you can aim, that's how good you'll be. no random spread get lucky headshot kinda stuff

reaction times you have to be equally fast if not faster in quake

tracking aim, this is something in quake (lightning gun) that you don't have to do in cs, and imo it's a big skill set

prediction aiming (rockets)

i played at the highest levels of RTCW/ET and i played with a few guys who would go on to be cal-i/cevo-p in CS:S and CS:GO. they picked the game up rather fast. i only know 1 dude who could even get close to competing at the highest levels of quake because it is THAT hard to get GOOD.


also, movement in quake is a gigantic skill. you don't have to worry about movement at all in the cs series.

cypher just won dreamhack this past weekend and his aim/movement/smarts are incredible

the first Call of Duty ever on PC.

Y'all focused on games that were popular. I still think uc2 mp was better than most of those games y'all naming pertaining to initial balance(the game unfortunately has been dumbed down now.)

Played Halo 3 competitively and Halo 2 competitively, went to a Lan tourney and placed 4th
