Since Dooms multiplayer was a disappointment, what is a populated arena shooter that's worth playing.
>>
>>334755809
Quake and UT is for fags. Lmao.
That and Tribes is dead.
>>
>>334755809
Unreal alpha is pretty much the only one.

Casuals killed the market.
>>
Quake 3 Arena was the last good multiplayer FPS.
>>
>>334755809
Guys D00M might have disappointed you because Arena Shooters are dead, but don't you wish things could be like they usd to in the old days back when they used to be good and things were great back then but aren't anymore?

WELL NOW YOU CAN!

Introducing QUEXXIKKZ, the new crowd funded Arena Shooter that takes the genre back to it's roots, not like FUCKING CALL OF SHITTY GAYS am I right?
CoD is bad and things used to be good and if you give us your money then good things will come back and not be like they are now but like they used to be back when they were good.
>>
>>334756289
Will it be on Steam?
>>
>People expected D44M to be good
>After RAGE and the butchered Doom 3 port

I'd say id is pretty much guaranteed to die, but they've been a husk for quite some time now.

One gun, two shots to kill
It's a neat game/concept but movement speed isn't actually what defines an arena shooter.
>>
>>334756594
I didn't like RAGE, but let's not call it an omen of DOOM. There are good elements in RAGE, like the quite nice gunplay; the problem is that it's in service of the most boring thing ever featuring that one terrible idea Carmack had while drunk.
>>
Im really enjoying the beta don't know what this shill op is talking about must be a nigger or something, seriously though anyone keep getting into ring around the rosey with shotguns in doom it's like I'm shot gun dueling someone every minute it's fucking awesome.
>>
Any of you idiots play Reflex? I kinda wanted to give it a shot because the map editor looked neat, but somebody told me it's basically CPMA 2 and I don't want to bother if the community was 100% insular assholes.
>>
I enjoyed the new multiplayer. Holy fuck you fags want arena shooters to completely die off. Enjoy Overwatch I guess.
>>
>>334758348

It feels really early access'y. It's got potential.
>>
>>334758348
>Early Access for two years
Let me know when it's finished and $2.
>>
>>334755809
UT Alpha is alright. No really big sprawling maps for TDM and shit like that though.

D44M isn't arena.

Yes. It is, holy fuck you faggots are insufferable. I bet you don't even have UT99 or Quake Live installed either spouting this shit. Fucking bandwagonners on hating anything AAA.

Christ not every arena shooter needs to be super hardcore, we need to get the masses into this genre to help it grow. You fucks probably don't even know what Nexuiz or Toxikk is.
>>
>>334758763
>not pick two
I pick arena and worth playing. It's incredibly easy to just make a thread organizing pickup games like I do for every dead game I want to play. Make a thread with pirate link and server IP and you'll have fifty bored /v/irgins hop on your dick because they have nothing better to do.

The definition of arena shooter is everyone starting with the same equipment and everything else is found on the map. Absolutely nothing carries from round to round. Movement speed is not what defines an arena shooter. Halo 1-3 are technically arena shooters despite being floaty and slow.

can we have more people to play new UT? jeeesus, epic, pr that shit, you moba bandwagoners

Masses getting into the genre is what kills that genre in the first place you moron. What the game needs is a small but dedicated and serious community, something that will never happen with arena shooters ever because the real fans moved on long time ago, and all that's left are edgy kids who were like 5 when Quake 3 came out yet they love to make up stories about how back in the day FPS games were good. Stop beating a dead horse.

>>334758946
>Nexuiz
A mistake that killed its own community only to fork into Xonotic to fix all of its flaws.
>Toxikk
A shit game
>>
>>334758994
>Early Access
No. Finish the game before selling it or make it free like the countless other open source arena shooters.

Thank god they outsourced the multiplayer. That means the id put a lot of effort on single player content.

I just want to emphasize that both I.D. and Bethesda know exactly what they're doing.

Blacklight: Retribution.
I remember playing that when the PS4 first came out. It was decent, but it's dead now.
