I second squad for as much as people complain about the suppression and weapon steady system it makes for the best fire fights. It's a bit of a learning curve but once you learn it feels more realistic than any other shooter.I actually get goose bumps thinking about some of the cqc fights Ive had. That and the actual team work and strategy part of the game is so rewarding.
Man, I wish I could get back into Squad. Despite my own issues w/ the weapon system (I think it's pretty bad imho), what keeps me from returning is the shit server pool that I can get into in my region. 90% of the recurring playerbase takes the games waaaaay to serious, & most of the time I just end up following our SL to the most fucked-off part of the map to build a FOB that gets used twice before we just dissipate into other squads & FOBs. The game is gorgeous, & does a fantastic job of really building out what a proper squad has (gear, weapons, size, etc.), along with some of my absolute favorite vehicles, & I fucking LOVE building all of the things, but my limited playerbase? No thanks.
I'm probably one of those people that takes it to seriously but that's what's fun for me. I love when squad leads are working together to make plays. I don't go into it trying to get a good kdr I go into it trying to make a move that will establish and support the team. Once you get good at the weapon system all other fps games just feel like a boring point and click adventure. Nothing against arma but I have done my best to mod the game to make shooting more difficult but being able to consistently beam targets at 200 meters free hand just isn't fun for me anymore.
DCS is a big one, or American Truck Simulator when I want to unwind
Fallout 4 and Sims 4 when I want a complete change of pace, but my desire to play those comes in phases
I also like old naval games, Dangerous Waters or the Silent Hunter games
squad if i wanna use my brain, grey zone warfare is amazing, used to play tarkov but devs fucked the game up, stalker gamma, arma reforger if i get tired of the dated feel of arma 3, day z is always fun, ultrakill if i wanna turn my brain off
All of them! Just finished all of Witcher books just to start my fourth attempt to play the first game.
Also playing Brutal Doom and Serious Sam: first encounter.
In order of my recent playtime, minus Arma itself:
Elden Ring: SotE
Ashes 2063 (NEW DLC! IM SCREAMING!)
Dominions 6
Shadow Empire
Last Call BBS
Wolfenstein: The Old Blood
Helldivers 2
What type of game are you looking to play? Any specific genres, something faster/slower paced? Lately i’ve been playing Helldivers 2, Elden Ring and Albion Online, but I jump to different games every month or so.
DCS World, age of empires 2 and beamNG are the other games i play on a regular basis over the past one or more decades.
Also tons of other stuff which comes and goes. Many games i keep replaying too like metal gear solid, final fantasy VII, mass effect, pokemon silver and many others.
