Nope. The games are fun as fuck, and some pure fucking great examples of PC exclusives (at the time) done right. Those options menus already get my dick diamonds, and then you got insane shit like 16 player co-op mode, and 4p split screen!
>>344676649
sure, the game improves tremendously towards the end, but I found it good right from the beginning already. I had some concerns about the game at first, namely the speed and potential "cinematic" design it could have, but all those disappeared when I stepped out of that building you land on, and Sam starts moving at his trademark bullet-train pace.
>>344676890

>>344672779
I actually had an argument with that guy.
He constantly tried to tell me that D44M has dubstep in it. I constantly told him that it was djent/industrial metal, and when I actually linked him some of the songs from the OST, he just went "nu-uh, it sounds like dubstep to me, so it IS dubstep. Deal with it!! :)))"
Then he tried to tell me that the original had metal, regardless how many times I proved him wrong about that.
Guy's a fucking retard.

So basically Doom and Serious Sam.
>>344678184

>>344678739
Heretic has no hitscan enemies and Hexen has zero hitscan enemies or weapons.

>>344678739

except doom has like 4 hitscan enemies? fps threads on /v/ are so frustrating.
like hitscan enemies are even anything bad inherently
>>344672779
You're a retarded faggot and your video is absolute trash. You're too old to have opinions anymore. Get out.
>>344676162
>the writing and dialogue is so fucking bad, intrusive, and feels like it was written by middle school kids
it's the fucking point.
Do the Deus Ex games count as FPSs?
Dark Messiah if even though it's not really a shooter.
>>344678938
They're still a minority of the enemies, especially in Doom 2, Final Doom and D44M. Being able to dodge enemy shots instantly speeds up the gameplay as you don't have to rely on cover to avoid hits and can play much more aggressively.
>>344678938
They're bad if used incorrectly, like Chaingunners. The other zombiemen are fine because they're weak in health and damage (sans Shtgun Guys at close range). Blood and SW are notoriously bad with their hitscanners, not on the most common enemies in the game, with multiple versions of said mooks, but also tough(Cultists) or very agile(Evil Ninjas).
>>344678739
I think D44M is the only Doom game without hitscan enemies (not 100% sure because I don't know how the shotgun guys weapons work but they don't fire at a distance anyways so it doesn't matter).
Also SS3 is loaded with hitscan enemies for the first part.
>>344678551
I found it really great compared to 4's. Even though I did like 4's ending.
I thought that the voice acting for Cortana and Exhuberent Witness were top tier.
All 5 Halo campaigns' gameplay have been shit since the beginning to me, besides ODST of course. So it really depends on the story, which I thought was tops in 5.
/blog
>>344672779
Kill yourself
>>344679209
Does D44M even have any hitscan monsters? I know the shield zombies use shotguns but you can clearly see its projectiles traveling through the game world when you fire.
>>344677078
what is "generally considered" has nothing to do with the conversation
he never mentioned doom
you did
grow the fuck up and learn how to make an argument without your own personal assumptions
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3OY0hDt5Sw
Reminder that this guy is 100% right.
>>344679209
>as you don't have to rely on cover to avoid hits
hitscan enemies don't make you rely on cover to avoid hits in most classic fps games. This is because they have a time to lock onto your position and fire, so you can actually make them miss.
assuming that hitscan means perfect accuracy with 0 lag means you don't know what you're talking about.
FWIW, this ruined the Black Mesa half-life remake. The grunts in BM have 0 tiem between spotting you and shooting, so every grunt part of the game becomes hiding behind cover like some kind of new school fps.
It completely ruins half-life and it makes me want to vomit that a lot of people here played BM and think it's half-life. it isn't.
The Chronicles of Riddick games are good, but the enemies have 0 lag between spotting and shooting that is mentioned here >>344679460
>>344672516
>there are people who don't like the character-action style pacing that combat arenas bring,
Timesplitters 2 has a god like campaign. But if you want your ass to stay in one piece stay away from Hard mode
>>344679291
I guess I just hate the promethians as enemies. I honestly think 343 designed them to be less resource intensive, which is why they instantly disappear when they die, eliminating the need for ragdoll. All of their guns suck too and after Halo 4 I hoped they wouldn't repeat the same mistake.
>>344672516
Does Dark Messiah count? It's first person and you can shoot spells and arrows and shit. It's got the best first person melee combat around.
Which FPS forces you to git gud and will improve your aim?
>>344679352
not a single one unless you count the final boss' laser, which move to you instead of hit you right away.
tron 2.0
>>344679352
That's a visual effect, they could still be instant. Though I think they might have a limited range?
>>344672516
pic unrelated? D44M was hot garbage
>>344679352
It doesn't, one of the main reasons why it's good. If you're good you can play it through without taking any hits.

>FPSes

>>344680181

one of the reasons doom sucks is that the enemies are too good. and the enemies can be too good because there are 400,000 points worth of HP spawning from them in an average level
game just sucks.
>>344680408

>>344679375
does it matter if he mentioned it or not?
learn to follow a bit more deeper conversation, and see the connecting points in the talk.
>>344680931
yeah, no. Unlike some D44M praising fucks, who seem to think that everything's literally been shit the past 10 years, I actually have found something new and entertaining to play every single fucking year. Sometimes it has been stuff from the far past that I just never got to play, sometimes it's the latest shit there is.
The point still stands: great majority of these modern reboots of "classic" fps games suck major ass, and I've had way more fun playing their original 90's games.
>>344680969
of course it's not. do you have any idea what an actual oldschool fps plays like?
it sure as fuck isn't "enemies constantly charging at you to 1hit melee you, flying around teleporting constantly and climbing up walls to come around behind you"
your mobility is shit compared to enemies in doom4 and it works against the game.
the player doesn't feel powerful in doom 4. they feel harried and always on the run. that explicitly isn't what i want out of fps and no, old fps do not feel like that whatsoever.
>>344679193
>Do the Deus Ex games count as FPS's?
No
>>344679987
The new Warzone guns and variants are actually pretty fun. But I agree, Prometheans were always terrible enemies.
There was a leaker here, I don't know how legit he was, but he said he worked at 343 and that on each white board in every room is the message "MAKE PROMETHEANS FUN TO FIGHT" so hopefully Halo 6or Halo 5 part 2will make some changes, because I don't think prometheans are going anywhere.
>>344672516
does console count?
>>344681170
there was nothing deeper about it
you are just a projecting fuck that tries to divert attention away from the core of the argument

Either troll or really shit at video games.
>>344681286
>the player doesn't feel powerful in doom 4. they feel harried and always on the run
Just like in the originals, then? Enemies have always done a tremendous amount of damage to Doomguy and working out strategies and kill orders that keep you safe has always been a part of Doom.
>>344672516
is that Mega Man in the background.
>>344681286
im done replying arguing with you is taxing and going nowhere
>>344681786
>Just like in the originals, then?
no. having enemies continuously flank you/come from behind you changes the gameplay at its core.
original doom games don't feel like that at all, because you can draw enemies out of an area etc. You aren't forced into a closed arena. The feeling isn't remotely similar.
>>344681908
you're done arguing because you have no argument and you realized i won. a better person would concede to the point.
In Quake, the best FPS, enemies are in front of you. unless they teleported in behind you. of course doom1-2 does that too, but you can then reposition yourself for a better angle
D44m trashes the aspect of player positioning. You are always at a bad angle. something is always behind you.
I bet it feels really exciting to a lot of people, but to me it feels like playing quake3 against a bunch of bots with low weapons and 40hp.
>tfw we will never get another proper oldschool FPS
>every "oldschool" FPS is just Painkiller arenas with some shitty modern mechanic like RPG upgrades

>>344682409
>not quake
stop playing doom and start playing quake you fuckin autists.
doom's design is rudimentary as fuck and gameplay is just a lower tier
>>344682685
Devil Daggers is literally the same style of fps that he's bitching about. Difference being the entire game takes place in a single, tiny room instead of and sort of level progression.
>>344683794
no, it's not, because it has advanced movement mechanics. huge difference.
i find it criminal that they aren't asking for people online to help improve the game by making levels for it
>>344682409
RPG upgrades is the new autist buzzwords I see. If the game didn't have them the weapons would be boring and there would be no point to the secrets. Not only that but in order to upgrade weapons completely you have to Git gud and complete kill challenges.
>>344672978
