I used to favor UT over Q3A. However recently after upgrading from a celeron 500 with Voodoo 2 to a celeron 896 with GeForce 2 I find Q3A much better. The sse really makes Q3 rock as do those extra 400Mhz. The lack of glide support for GeForce probably contributes to my switch as well.
I have to go with CS. Because you have to think, and out guess the other team.

What can I say? All of these games are great, but I still love Quake 2. I'm not really into the deatmatch scene, but throw on the Action quake mods and LMCTF and I'm loving life. Still both quite popular, I guess nothing is gonna beat sniping a guy in the head for me. Especialy if the server has gibs on, it is truly a beatiful sight.
Whoa! I didn't bother to read all 4 pages, but has anyone even mentioned Tribes? That game was revolutionary.
CS RULEZ!!
UT is the training wheels of FPS games. It is more user friendly than Q3, but the physics and "feel" are poop. UT online is just dozens of peeps standing behind a corner, loading up six rockets and shooting at anything that moves. It lacks something, tactics? strategy? I dunno. When I play UT I feel like I'm controlling a mech. When I play Q3a (RA3 is recommended) I feel like I'm in the game. Although I prefer UT CTF. I'm anxiously awaiting TeamArena. I can't stand the UT maps. They look like big blue-grey blocks. What is this? TOmbraider2?
I just stared dabbling in CS. That is some fun stuff.
Yep, Tribes was/is great!Quote:

I could never get into tribes, that one did seem really slow paced and just downright boring. Even though everyone and their brother tried to get me to play the game I just couldn't do it. I think a lot has to do with which game you played first, my first online expierience was with Quake Team Fortree. I absolutely loved it. I need to get some new games installed on my new pc, so I can start fragging and lagging in a winter wonder land.
I really Blow at Couter-Strike, but I still like it for it's tactical aspect. UT is a favourite of mine as well
I thought it was slow at first, but once you learn skiing and how to master the jet pack its a total different game. Tribes has changed so much over the past two years. My original online game I liked to play was Action Quake 2 and it was hard to switch between games but you get used to it. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gifQuote:

Quake 3 fortress.
If you like Halflife TFC, you may also like this.
Go here and get it... www.q3f.com
If you go by the servers which report to gamespy (Which is probably most of them) Half-Life is the most played miltiplayer FPS on the net...by a VERY wide margin. Quake 3 arena is in second place, and Unreal Tournament rounds out in third.
