Title: Need a new FPS online
Post by: BlueJ1 on October 26, 2006, 12:55:12 PM: Looking to go to EB games later tonight. Any suggestions on a good FPS? I would prefer one with online capabilities.

Hows the Battlefield series? Battlefield 2142 or something along those lines looked cool.

Looking at Call of Duty 2 also. I really liked the first one and supposedly I heard they fixed online multiplayer so the person with the mp44 dosnt always pwn.

I didnt either until I picked it up again and started playing some of the home made maps. The D-Day map was great.

If you're cheap, like me, check out http://www.americasarmy.com free to download, free to play, something like 500,000 players total with dozens of servers & unique challenging maps.

Also very fun, is Joint Ops 'Typhoon rising'

Getting online in Bf2? Last I played it had a game manager thingy built in. I never had any problems. -edit- Oh, I think you have to have an account. Yeah, almost positive because they track stats and give rankings-edit-

I cant find my bf2 dvd, or my new lighter.. a real pisser.

Post by: StarOfAfrica2 on October 26, 2006, 11:34:04 PM: I use both the Warrock and America's Army games, both are free and different enough that I can play both without getting burnt too fast. Both have their downsides too, but they are both pretty darn good for freebies.
