So I want to play a modern FPS to play online. However, it's hard to find a good one.


What do you recommend me?

I tried that out of a friend. Good one, awesome gameplay...

But I am looking toward something more on war-themed, with a variety of guns and vehicles, etc.

I will be looking toward this one.

I have read the critics. It seems to be good on many aspect.

However, it seems to have cons in multiplayer: an annoying "four men squad" system that leave the player out of game a lot of times; maps too big that can only be played with 24 players.

there is always near full servers to play, and once your in a squad you can spawn right near any of your squad members or at spawn point, spawn timea are usually no longer than 9 seconds

Hmm, I was looking to which one I should choose, Bad Company 2 or Call of Duty 4. Seems like BC2 wins for several reasons:
- BC2 is a multiplayer game with single-player, COD4 is a single-player game with multiplayer;
- COD4 is a console-port, with removed features;
- COD4 is worst on servers;
- BC2 has vehicles;

You would think that but not really. COD4's SP is ridiculously short and pretty unremarkable, the MP is - for many people - the main attraction of the game. too bad the mp in cod4 sucks balls

Well, I brought Bad Company 2... however, there seems to have something wrong with the game...

The knife is not a weapon (i.e. pistol, assault rifle, etc), but you use it through a special key
The grenade is the same, it's not a weapon, but you use it though a special key
The grenade launcher monted on the assault rifle is a different weapon (despite it being the "same" weapon)

And isn't it strange that you can't use strafe while running? I remember seeing on TV real-life soldiers running while crossing obstacles (image) and I think I can do it myself...

Also the camera seems to be limited in vehicle... maybe I miss something.

nade & knife working like that is a good thing, you dont need fiddling with weapon changes to use them, they are a kind of "in the moment" sort of item

how the nade attachment works is a bit odd yes, but easy to get used to

you only really have a max of 3 items you can switch to so i suggested setting up your keys to have quick changes to your items, mouse wheels and number fiddling is a good way to die.

you cant fire while runnning so the strafe thing is not needed anyway, if someone catches you running by the time you react and have your gun back on screen you'll probably be dead

vehicle is 3rd person because it kind of needs it, 3rd person soliders would just use it to see around walls :)

Dedicated keys for grenades/melee attacks have been an industry standard for years. :)
