Tactical Shooters

This thread is about tactical shooters, not puzzle games.

I prefer SWAT 3 myself

Fucking burn

Why's that? I never played 3

More complex and it does actually feel tactical.

I like Siege but tactical it isn't. I wish the timer wasn't so short to give room for more tactical game play but they made it more for a fast pace competitive scene. Me and my friends have won matches by literally screaming our heads off and rushing the site on attack.

I also prefer 3 due to multiplayer options.

I'd like that a lot, but I doubt it'll happen. It looks like they just slapped on the Situations and Terrorist Hunt and called it a day.
I know the game is mainly multiplayer focused, but a campaign with some additional story would be pretty cool I think.

Are there any other solo tactical shooters out there? I hate it when other people do the shooting and not me.

Holy shit my fucking nigger. That's a blast from the past right there. I used to play Delta Force 1 and 2, and Land Warrior all the time as a kid.

Black Hawk Down, especially online was great too. I remember checking back on that game a couple years back, thinking online had died ages ago, but there were still servers up for that damn game.

Does Novalogic even exist anymore? Last time I heard that name there was some scandal about them being fined for pirated software or something along those lines.

What I like about Delta Force are the projectile trajectory and enemies that only work correctly for long range assault. That makes the one hit kill system much less of an issue when you're clearing corridors.

Novalogic is ded. DF: Angel Falls is never ever.

Yeah I just looked at their wiki page and it looks like they quietly halted all development and died. Sad.

Looking a bit further it seems THQ Nordic bought their IPs in october last year. So that pretty much confirms that they're gone, but still, maybe there's hope for another Delta Force one day under them. That'd be something I'd like to see.

Overwatch is pretty tactical with how you need to learn when to deploy your abilities and how you need to control the map.

we aren't talking about Mobas, mate

Co-op when?

We want tactical with a bit of realism.

What the fuck, cops are not allowed to shoot bad guys with guns? There was a den of them, it's a life and death situation. I should at least get a compensation for trying to save my own life. The scoring mechanic is shit and contra realistic. Any way to fix it?

The whole game can be beaten with beanbag shotguns and pepperball guns, user.
Also mash the fucking button that tells enemies to drop weapons as soon as you see one, and if they move it from holding it across their body and don't throw it down or to the side, you're clear to fire.

But I like shooting them better..

That doesn't always stop them or their friends from shooting me. Everything happened so fast. Especially that nightclub level, that was whack.

They are but the ideal situation is always arresting the criminals and giving them their day in court.

It gets a bit ridiculous in SWAT where you're called in to handle North Korean terrorists armed with assault rifles. In reality they'd call someone else other than the local SWAT.

Never played any tactical shooters other than the first two Rainbow Sixes, and then Vegas with some buddies. I had fun with Vegas not sure what other people's opinions are, it's definitely not a tactical shooter, or is it a casual tactical shooter?

Casual tactical shooter.
It was quite fun in it's day but damn have the textures aged over the years.

...

Tactical Shooters died off at the AAA level because it's much more profitable to make a generic military FPS and slap a known name onto it. A similar thing happened to Splinter Cell (not technically a tactical shooter).

The Advanced Warfare games are inferior, OG Ghost Recon + expansions are the only ones really worth your time.
Probably not, this was back when tactical shooters were still an experiment and nobody was quite sure how to deal with it.

I dunno, Blacklist was decent. Not very stealthy, but it certainly was fun and better than MGSV imo.

Whatever it was it wasn't proper Splinter Cell. I too enjoyed it as a fun throwaway experience but it pales in comparison to Chaos Theory.

I agree. It isn't terrible, especially when you consider they've been raping Splinter Cell since Conviction (Or was it Double Agent that came out after Chaos Theory? They're so forgettable), but I dislike what they did to Grimsdottir and most of all Sam. All they needed to do was have Sam retire and have a new guy follow him up.

I found it kinda lame. Basically where it started to go downhill for Rainbow Six as, like said, it's too casual to really enjoy ir.

The mod apparently improved the threat detection.

I wouldn't mind if we had the occasional Swat 4 multiplayer threads like we used to for a while.

What mod?

moddb.com/mods/swat-elite-force

Damn that's pretty cool. Gonna have to give that a try.

This person either never played SWAT3, is fucking retarded, is the type of person who thinks Deus Ex is bad or all 3.

And for reference, SWAT4 is the only game in the SWAT series that the LAPD SWAT refused to endorse.

Did you not read the rest:

That's nice, but it doesn't explain why he thinks SWAT3 is lacking in realism when compared to SWAT4 with its magic pepper rounds and immortal companions.

Explanation I found about that is he's a cunt unfortunately.

Yup, cunt.

memes

Explain? I think my boys did die.

BTW, I find SWAT 3's lack of gun model to be irritating. At least display the muzzle flash if they were bothered by poor FOV.

So you want one of the unique genres dumbed down to yet another generic shooter?

I beat Operation Firestorm Dragon Rising not long ago and am now playing through Red River. These are the first tactical shooters I have played, but I've gotta say I am getting quite into this genre.

Hmm, I might check it out if that's the case.
Does anyone have a DL?

Just dl the swat 3 file.

I know everyone is talking about Swat, but I like the SOCOM games at least the ones before they turned it into a COD piece of shit

git gud

Ever played Rainbow Six games fag?

Thanks for the console command though. That gun model looks like shit though.

Didn't even know they still made those.after the PS2.

Friendly bump.

Anyone tried Takedown: Red Saber? I came across a video of it by ass cancer man and it seemed alright, but it looks like the majority of reviews say it's absolute dogshit.

Checked.

was having a look around and found this.

Why is this allowed?

I remember Delta Force having the best bullet physics. Shooting through walls with guns that could realistically do that was fucking awesome.

Also you just reminded me of different game (probably one of my favorite in the stealth genre) that also used a flight sim engine: Project IGI.

God damn what an obnoxious faggot.
Of course.

Game looks neat though. Always love detailed customization.

yea posted before actually watching, didn't know who much of a faggot the guy was.

the game itself looks like it need a metric ton of work befor its ready to play.

Found this Channel wile browsing around:
youtube.com/channel/UC3af_Acy2AubwhTWQmYbSBQ/videos

Shows gameplay of the type of games i think thread related would like, a lot of old gems in there i forgot about and never tried.
Also no sperg talking about bullshit, just 15-40mins of gameplay.

Yes. They really only had a few years in the limelight. Takedown: Red Sabre was supposed to be a return to form, but ended up being a steaming pile of shit. The genre is dead.
So thanks for reminding me, you fuck.

Raven Shield does that, too. I always appreciate when games put those little touches in.
