4chanSpecial : Part 1 : the downfall of shooters

the Modern Warfare remake was really good though

Answer: Because all video games fell "badly" in quality.

Why did the quality of games decline? Capitalism. Capitalism always requires more growth, a wider net, more profit. The 7th console gen is widely responsible for games that appealed to a wider, more casual demographic. Combine the need to water down games for the masses and the need to squeeze more profit out of products with bigger budgets and you have a perfect recipe for the shitty games we have today.

Capitalism is great until it's not, capitalism will poison anything it touches.

Due to popular demand, the next 4chanSpecial will be about discussing if Mario is real.

and the alternative being?

the reason games have gotten worse is because of social media. face it you have a loud minority complaining to devs to cater to them specifically and alienate the rest of the players. Meanwhile you got youtubers posting the NEW META everytime there’s an update. no one really uses mics because they’re scared fags so it’s constant matches playing with people who don’t talk and people who religiously only use the meta when they play. so multiplayer online games now feel like you’re just playing with bots that get updated every season when the meta changes. fuck jannies

this is not me exactly but i approve it

No, that shows you why Planetside 2 sucks.
Project Reality BF2 has 200 player matches occasionally and they are amazing

The alternative to what?

look at what happened in 2007 and then the aftermarth of 2012, the answer is all around you

ive enjoyed day of infamy for some time

You have to ask yourself though, why would anyone want to talk to you? Why would someone subject themselves to that when they're trying to have fun playing a video game.

Funny, most games Yea Forums likes are worse than Halo Infinite.

Halo Infinite is the best multiplayer shooter since Titanfall 2. And Titanfall 2 is the ideal.

mics are useless. a good audio cue system and chat delivers information more quick and clear than someone mumbling in his headset.

Renegade X has one of the best ive encountered so far. A com rose paired with a shortcut that does context cues based on where you aim at

yeah its just ww2 insurgency, its fun for what is, pushing through objectives, but id prefer something smaller scale like the original rainbow six mp
funny enough the game to emulate that the most is call of duty hardcore snd, but thats full of its own problems

shit take, also you're on social media right now

Did I make a typo in the URL?
Are these bots?
Yea Forums Special?
Naider?
Why are people replying seriously to such bullshit?

>inb4 don't talk about videogames etc.
You can do that without that garbage pseudo-marketing. OP probably lurked for a whole 2 days before getting this epic idea. Fuck off.

Halo is an easy one, the devs suck ass. There's nothing fundamentally wrong with Halo, it just needs a good developer.

Insurgency sandstorm is kinda of life that but NWI has been making some absolutely mind boggling dumb updates as of late

>Halo Infinite is the best multiplayer shooter since Titanfall 2
Do you really think someone would do that? Go on the internet and tell lies?

People don't use mics because they are all in their own private discord calls instead of engaging with the in game VoiP. For some reason zoomers treat MP games as single player activities

I can only answer for Halo. It's the dev team. They haven't made a single game. All their games are so shit that old Bungie Halo games they ported have a higher playerbase than their own games. To put into perspective the time it took 343 to make Infinite it the time it took to make Halo CE, 2 and most of 3 and Infinite released with less content than even CE.

Back to your Russian /vpol/ thread, Ivan.

no. it shows you technically why both games suck. tons of rubberbanding and lack of game balance. maybe its fun if you're drunk or playing with friends but past that there is no substance.

Anti-semitism, and the return to the art of labor

this shithole while it can be like twitter sometimes it’s not twitter, some random tranny can literally change a video game’s culture or anything by just lying. here we don’t have shit except food porn threads

its like i said in and yeah i fucking hate nwi, i get a chuckle out of seeing "dead game" on the update posts

Meanwhile in CoD Vanguard, every nigger on PS4 is using team chat like it's a private Discord. Also, private VOIP existed well before Discord, zoomer. You couldn't be more wrong.

FPS are dead and I can't be happier

>you know you're going to buy it anyway
This shit became their mantra whenever the question of changing things came up, instead of trying to make sure the game was good they did whatever they wanted and expected everyone to just buy it anyway because it's the new game all their friends are playing.

take your meds retard

that's not new at all though, if you wanted to play any game seriously in the past you'd use vent or teamspeak with your buddies

Literally mentally ill. You're glad games you already don't like got worse? How sad is your existence lmao holy shit

>FPS are dead and I can't be happier
Said user as he doomscrolls for idpol outrage threads on Yea Forums 24/7

I can only speak for Infinite because of the 3 in OPs pic it's the only one I've played, but it is painfully obvious that people very unconnected from knowing what makes games good or fun were responsible for calling the shots. it's a very soulless game with some decent fundamentals, it's just that all the wrong decisions were made about everything-- campaign and multiplayer are both irredeemably fucked. it must be very uncommon these days to have decision makers who have both decent business sense and good understanding of games

game devs don’t listen to the retards here retards, but they listen to the retards at reddit, youtubers, and twitter

FPS were always shit you Doom tard. Pissing on the genre's grave.

like everything else bad in videogames, the answer is dumbing things down and pandering to the lowest common denominator to appeal to the widest audience possible for more money

Journos badly wanted Call of Duty 4 to "save" the genre from the oversaturated WW2 genre. What they didn't realize is that the game would not only oversaturate the market with modern shooters, but also ruin multiplayer. Not that they care about a game's quality. They still jacked off every generic modern cod-like fps since.

then something like Lemnis Gate comes out and is too bigbrain for most players though

do you think they really listen, though, or just have some low-tier PR peon pretending to listen to them to garner goodwill? people on forums, especially game forums, are so malleable that devs can originate any shit idea and forumtards will readily absorb it and defend it

Were modern FPSs ever really that good?
What makes the newer releases distinctly bad when compared to shooters from the early 2010s?

how do you explain the popularity of games like tarkov then?

>stop liking what I don't like!
missing melee attacks that visually connect in Morrowwind is the biggest lul I've ever seen and you should drink bleach.

Because they are being made by corporations that apply the same methods they use to make industrial products (market research determining design, arbitrary "quality assurance" goals that don't indicate if a game is actually good, hiring people based on company standing or education instead of passion & skill, diversity hires, etc.)

They result is bland corporate shit that tries to appeal to as big a crowd as possible but only ends up alienating the old audience

umm... counter strike?
wingman mode if normal isn't small/short enough for you

Game devs have been catering to casuals since at least 2006 and devs weren't scouring Myspace for opinions.

nice, filtered

at best 10 gorillion ingame unlocks to actually play the game.
The hamster wheel doesn't make your game fun.

In Halo they have made changes based on MLG's whinging.

counter strikes gameplay is extremely outdated

yup

Is that the famous Mint Quitz?

Really, what shooter do you consider to have up to date gameplay then.

lack of innovation and lack of faith in new ips from kike producers. also some very lame stories and women writting

jackie chan

trick question theyre all shit
ideally itd be modern warfare 2019 with realistic ballistics, height over bore, no bhop/slide cancel faggotry

AAA shooters have fallen off,commercial (not like fan stuff) indie boomershooters are in a golden age.

So, pubg?

no

>muh reeelism
shut the fuck up LOL!!!!
movement in games is fun
accessible verticality makes gunplay more interesting
if you have accessible verticality you need movement tech
on a small map you won't even notice the difference between hitscan and projectile
