Forums - Gaming Discussion - How to ruin a perfectly good FPS

Include a grenade launcher.

EVERY (counterstrike aside) single fps that i have played and enjoyed has been ruined by a grenade launcher.

this includes..

goldeneye, perfect dark, timeshitters 1, COD4, COD:WAW(360) and especially COD:WAW(wii).

Usually games that go for a more realistic approach are comepletely and utterly ruined by the inclusion of a grenade launcher of some form.

Any body else absolutely hate them or is it just me? 



Endure. In enduring, grow strong.

You mean in Multiplayer Mode, yeah?

Realistic?

And tell me why a grenade launched ruins the games? you don't seem to have given a reason.

 



Ahh i was not as clear as i should have been.

Multiplayer in call of duty is completely ruined by them, especially on the wii, them game often turns into a complete all of spam fest of rifle grenades.

When i said more realistic games i was refering to COD.

in time splitters 1 if you had the sci-fi auto rifle it basically meant you have won.

golden eye grenade launcher was the best weapon by far.

and perfect dark....well lets just not go there.

Just you.

 

Edit: I know in Perfect Dark and Timesplitters you can individually choose the weapons to spawn in the multiplayer games. So elaborate on how the games are ruined?



I hate grenade/rocket launchers , they require minimal skill or precision , just aim in the the general direction of your target(s) and instant kill.

In Killzone 2 it's even worse , the assault class has extra armour , boost ability and either a rocket launcher or grenade launcher so they can pretty much run up into any area of the map and kill up to 5 people at once.

 

edit : this is for multiplayer mode only , offline they are FTW.



You could change weapon sets for Goldeneye, Perfect Dark and I believe Timesplitters 1.

But I agree about multiplayer being ruined in COD4 by grenades/grenade launchers. Grenade spamming ruins that game for me. I'd be interested to see just how many grenades get thrown in a single match (except for Search and Destroy). Must be at least a couple hundred.



Yea, lots of games in Killzone 2 restrict their use.



Well I don't know about the online iterations.... but you can choose not to use them in multiplayer for the others can't you?
