TPS = FPS for pussies.


Though honestly, I thought this game was gonna be more like The Sims....

 

This is an outrage

TPSs require way more skill than FPSs, see Warhawk and SOCOM

FPSs requires only a good aim

 

Read: More skill and less pussy BS.

 

Oh god

I'm helpless against your clearly superior argumentative skills

TPS and FPS are basically the same with a different view. TPS are easier because you can look behind you and have a larger angle of view

 

 

Your enemy also has this larger angle of view, therefore more skill is required in a fight to overwhelm the other guy's forces, i speak for personal experience as a former CS addicted and now TPS lover

Also, looking behind isn't so useful, you won't be able to dodge a quick knife going towards your back, unless the dude misses

Oh maybe I should do TPS = RTS for pussies? Either way TPS games are weak if they involve shooting.

 

RTS?

Either way, the only thing weak here is your argument, i still don't see a reason why FPS is better than TPS

 

Real time strategy games. Your argument is that TPS require more strategy. Yes well they don't compared to RTS games, nor do they require as much askill as FPS games. Whichever way you cut it they come down as a sub-par genre.

I know it means real time strategy, i just failed to see the connection between them and TPSs

Of course they don't require as much strategy as RTSs. They are shooters, after all. Hell, they don't even use similar game mechanics or camera or have similar goals. Jesus, there is a canyon of difference between the strategy required to subdue a civilization in AoE and the strategy required to win a SOCOM match, how could you do this?

If we are talking about RTSs, even though they fall in different categories, FPSs requires less skill and strategy to win than RTSs or TPSs

FPSes require far far more skill than any TPS.

First person shooters also requires you to expose yourself to see around a corner, while third person shooters let you magically see around and over objects with no danger to yourself.

I find third person shooters more fun overall, but for a competitive multiplayer game, FPS > TPS.

Why dont they make it similar to MGO ? switch TPS and FPS.

Come on guys dont be so harsh.

 

We were all just misinformed about the game. I mean it is called "Massive Action Game"....

I bet some people here even thought it was a game that involved fighting garden gnomes while riding dinosaurs with laser turrets mounted on them on an erupting volcano during a superstorm... in outer space!  And the spaceship was being flown carried by... CHUCK NORRIS.. as he was fending off transformers during a super nova!

fixed.

 

 Fixed again.

refixed again.
