thisWarhawk, man. Such a fucking good game. I loved the multiplayer back in the day.
Red Faction Guerilla. I miss sniping ppl through multiple walls with a railgun, learning weapon and ammo spawn locations, using multiple awesome weapons to tear through buildings to get guys hiding inside, or myself respawning and running inside for gear only to take out the pillars that held the thing up and have it tumble around me while I jetpack through a window or the roof. The Rhino pack was also a blast to use. Also the struggle to fight and race agianst other players for the mini-nuke launcher thing was great too! So many great memories. Can't believe no one has topped that game's destruction since, I don't think that voxel game is that impressive tbh.
I know it has a remaster out, but I try to avoid remasters with a few exceptions. I want a new game. I bet the mp is just as small and dead as the first.
Warhawk
i'd overlooked this, looks like massive fun lol
I'd sell my left ballbag to have MGO2 back officially.
Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory
YES!PSO1 with voice chat, and Mechassault 2.
God the first few years of Xbox Live were magical.
I think people didn't like the one player bit I thought the multiplayer was miles better than Timeplitters for instance.You know another game with well implemented bots? Red Faction 2. I remember they were quite a challenge. I really liked that game, considering the wrap it gets these days~
I played ut2k4 a few months ago or something and it had a few matches going, mostly onslaughtsMW2, Unreal Tournament
Titanfall first and foremost, favourite MP game of all time. Not the trash that is titanfall 2 though.
I’m in Australia though, so that doesn’t help unfortunately.None, they are dead because they just aren't up to par anymore. I got burned by this already many times. Whenever there was a revival of an online scene for a game I adored and desperately wanted to play again, I played 1 or 2 matches and was like "huh, was it always this boring?". Examples:
Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory: I tried it a year back and there are still plenty of people playing, no issues at all with finding any kinds of servers, moded or vanilla. The thing is that after about 5 matches I kind of had my fill and I never went back again, modern shooters are just better.
Warhawk: I bought it a few months before the servers went offline and that game was one of the jankiest experiences I ever had. I played it for novelty for about a day but I didn't have much fun with it, no wonder there were only 2 servers, nobody liked the game.
Battlefroge: I was extremely excited when I heard that a team is reviving this game and I was there day 1 to play it but after a few days I kind of forgot about it. It is still the best one out of all the games mentioned though, the game can still be fun for people who haven't played it as much as I did I'm sure.
Red Faction Guerilla: I always thought it was one of the most underrated multiplayers of all time and I kept reminiscing how incredible it was. When the remaster happened I bought it exclusively for the multiplayer, played 2 games and realized why it died, it really isn't a good multiplayer. Some cool ideas but the execution isn't there. Wrecking crew is fun though.
If a game is good it is alive, if it isn't alive it either got surpassed by a better game or it wasn't good to begin with, end of story.
The servers still work, I play it from time to time, there is always enough people to get a game going.
The original Lost Planet, very underrated MP, the weapons, maps, mechs, grappling hook, weapons had hidden effect like ejecting the pilot of a merch you could always make a comeback and have counter play to everything, the maps were huge the data post system to score reminded me of Battlefield with the tickets, the weapons were pick ups on the maps with power position to control like Halo, man... so much memories
The singleplayer is very very good. I replayed it a year ago and it holds up very well.I'd love a fresh vanilla WoW private server

I remember that game was so dammmn intriguing when PS3 first came out.. it just looked so good, so next gen, so beyond what had come before.. to this day I've still not played it because whenever I've had a chance to buy and play a copy poor reviews have stayed my spending hand~
yeah, Australia and multiplayer, those two don't quite mesh.I’m in Australia though, so that doesn’t help unfortunately.
It's a LOT better than it used to be, but yeah you basically have to play most games at release because after 3 months the MP is dead unless it's a mega hit like COD/BF/PUBG/Fortnite unfortunately.The singleplayer is very very good. I replayed it a year ago and it holds up very well.

Ohh I will have to look into that. I agree that the game was really underrated. It was a lot of fun.Warhawk PS3 was also really underrated. Remember really enjoying it during those days when the general reception on the PS3 wasn't so hot. You can still play it today if you use the community made Warhawk reborn app.
No, not necessarily. When a new console releases, most people migrate over eventually and any community that existed does fall in numbers.None, they are dead because they just aren't up to par anymore.

You bought the game at the wrong time or that type of game just isn't for you. Don't speak for me and many others by saying: "nobody liked the game", no, just YOU didn't like the game. There were many who did like the game. I've had many great matches with that game and would certainly go back to it if it was brought back on newer systems.Warhawk: I bought it a few months before the servers went offline and that game was one of the jankiest experiences I ever had.

Faeria is a much better card strategy game.Battlefroge: I was extremely excited when I heard that a team is reviving this game and I was there day 1 to play it but after a few days I kind of forgot about it.

When was the last time you played Warhawk? The day the servers went offline? Did you play the game at all that year? Almost nobody did since there was nobody playing the game then. The game is just meh, if it were good people would play it. You got games which are quite old and are still played today, games like Final Fantasy XI were still played until 2016 on PS2 so your point about new ecosystems isn't true. And when it comes to Battleforge it wasn't janky at all, it is very clean and crisp game which is why it was used as a display piece in promotional material by Nvidia and EA for DX11 all the time, it looked phenomenal, especially effects like reflections in ice and haze. The only problem with Battleforge is that it was quite repetitive and after playing it for a few hundred hours there really wasn't much to do so I slowly stopped playing it.You bought the game at the wrong time or that type of game just isn't for you.
